Chapter 589 – Incursions
An Zheng quickly kept the Swelling Earth. This was an Ancient God Beast, so if someone coveted it, it would be troublesome. He descended from the sky, and took Bai Tong from the bearded man’s hands, and then stuffed a medicinal pellet into his mouth.
Bai Tong gratefully looked at An Zheng: “Many thanks.”
An Zheng: “Thank my ass.”
After finishing his piece, he felt that something was amiss. Then, he glared at the bearded man, who had an innocent expression on his face … What’s wrong with me? I didn’t do anything?!
Luo Hongshui however laughed till her flowers trembled, and patted An Zheng’s shoulders: “Thank my ass, how could I be as handsome as you.”
An Zheng laughed awkwardly: “Elder sister, can we chat happily?”
Luo Hongshui laughed so hard that tears came out of her eyes, “You really have an interesting little brother.”
“Let’s leave this place first. There will be experts coming here very soon.” Lu Chengzhi has already escaped. He might be monitoring us from some unknown location. If Xun Zhiwen were to bring the experts of Fresh Breeze City here to silence us, we would not be able to stop them. ”
An Zheng carried Bai Tong up, “Let’s go.”
The four of them quickly left, first heading towards the west, then taking a detour back to the city. Xun Zhiwen reckoned that even if they survived, they would still dare to return to Windy City.
An Zheng had limitless experience in chasing and escaping, but of course, his concealing abilities were not small either. Halfway there, he stopped a caravan of ordinary carriages. After giving them a hundred taels of silver, the coachman happily let them into the carriage.
Previously, when An Zheng gave each of them a mask, it was all because of Zhong Jiuge’s capabilities, which was extremely exquisite. After these people put on their masks, they became completely different people.
On the carriage, Bai Tong sat cross-legged to rest for a while, before recovering. At the very least, his face was no longer as pale as before.
The bearded man patted Bai Tong’s shoulders: “Little brother, you have truly convinced me. To be honest, there were too many people in this world who cared about their origins and races. It was all bullshit. In my opinion, as long as you have good intentions, you are a good person. ”
Bai Tong acknowledged him, although he did not know what kind of experience he had, but there was still an unconcealable sadness in his eyes.
Luo Hong Yi said with tears, “Although my child was killed by a demon beast, I know that not all demon beasts in this world are bad. It was just like the people of this world. Some people looked decent, while others looked like Xun Zhiwen, but their hearts were even more evil than the demons. As for you, in my opinion, you are just a little brother with a chivalrous heart. ”
Bai Tong did not know what to say for a moment, as he was so excited that his face turned red.
“I …” Actually, I have never dared to tell others that I am a demon beast. ”
He lowered his head and said, “Our demon beasts are different from others. Our talent is to imitate other species. Some demonic beasts needed to spend a long time in cultivation to reach a certain level in order to take human form. However, we are born to be imitators. As long as he didn’t make a move, no one would be able to tell. “Later on, I got bold, since cultivators have all sorts of strange cultivation methods, so I didn’t have to worry about anything anymore.”
“Later on, I secretly went to a sect to register and successfully entered that sect to cultivate. In the end, when he fought with the other party, he wasn’t able to control himself for a short period of time and was discovered by the other party. They called me a demon beast and joined the sect to secretly learn and kill. So they arrested me and they’re going to burn me to death. ”
Bai Tong’s expression gradually dimmed down, “My parents joined that sect in order to save me. But they didn’t kill anyone in the end. In the end, in order to save me, they were beaten to death by that sect master. Only I escaped … However, I still do not think that people are bad. ”
He sat there with his head lowered. “Even before my parents died, they told me that I broke the rules. “A demon beast is a demon beast, it cannot be fused into the human world.”
“Why?”
He raised his head and looked at An Zheng.
An Zheng patted Bai Tong’s shoulder: “I can, believe me.”
Bai Tong nodded his head vigorously.
When he entered the city, he was questioned, but not carefully. The guards obviously did not receive their orders, and Xun Zhiwen did not believe that they would actually dare to come back so brazenly. After entering the city, An Zheng bade farewell to the carriage drivers, and brought them to an inn to stay.
“They probably didn’t know we were back, so you guys temporarily stay here to recuperate.”
“What about you?”
The bearded man asked An Zheng.
An Zheng laughed and said: “There are still some personal grudges between Xun Zhiwen and I that have not been resolved. They shouldn’t have expected you to leave Fresh Breeze City. After you leave, don’t come back, the farther the better. ”
“Where can I go?”
Luo Hongshui looked outside and supported her chin with her hand, “This is Da Xi, the City Lord of a large city belonging to Xun Zhiwen’s Da Xi. No one would believe what we said, saying that he had colluded with that demon beast. On the other hand, a single word from him could have turned us into criminals. Leave Da Xi? To the Buddha? He was afraid that once he got there, he would be hacked into pieces by the people who hated him. Even if we were to go to a small country nearby, it would still be the same. Actually, the hatred between those small countries and Da Xi might be even greater. ”
“You guys head north.”
An Zheng passed Luo Hongshui and company a leaf: “Someone will contact you later.”
The bearded man: “Little brother, you are so mysterious, what kind of background do you have?”
An Zheng turned around and walked out: “He has quite the background.”
When An Zheng walked out of the inn, he looked like a dignified middle-aged man. He passed through the streets and alleys, returned to the vicinity of the City Lord’s Mansion, and found an inn to stay in. Actually, he really wanted to return to Xiping Inn. Lan Xi, Hong Luan and a few other girls were also quite fun. However, if An Zheng went back now, An Zheng wasn’t sure if it was Lan Xi or the Red Luan who would report his whereabouts to Xun Zhiwen.
After An Zheng finished settling down, he entered a restaurant, which was right opposite the City Lord’s Mansion’s backyard. Since they were so close to the City Lord’s Mansion, no one believed that the restaurant had nothing to do with the City Lord’s Mansion. On the surface, there seemed to be many tall buildings that were not far from the City Lord’s Mansion. They could be used to observe the situation in the City Lord’s Mansion at any time. But in reality, most of these buildings were Xun Zhiwen’s property.
An Zheng ordered a few dishes on the third floor, but did not sit at a seat close to the window because he did not need it.
He touched the Blood Pearl Bracelet a few times, then his formless Heaven’s Eyes flew out and directly flew above the City Lord’s Mansion. Heaven’s Eyes and An Zheng’s blood vessels were connected, so An Zheng could see everything that Heaven’s Eye could. Thus, although it seemed like he was leisurely tasting the wine and eating the food, in reality, every single movement within the City Lord’s Mansion was under his observation.
The Heaven’s Eyes were invisible, so he didn’t need to worry about being discovered. An Zheng saw that there were more people coming and going in the City Lord’s Mansion than before. Everyone’s face were serious, obviously the news of Hua She’s death had already reached the City Lord’s Mansion.
conjectured that Xun Zhiwen had already rushed to the place where he had killed Hua She. Once the news of the agreement between him and Hua She got out, he would not be able to accept it.
But since Xun Zhiwen was not around, he could at least carefully observe the situation in the City Lord’s Mansion.
Xun Zhiwen should be living in a wooden building at the back of the City Lord’s Mansion. Judging from the people’s looks, Xun Zhiwen actually didn’t have a wife or children. In that wooden building, there were only maids and servants, not his family. An Zheng thought back to the records of Xun Zhiwen in the Ming Fa Si, there wasn’t anything of value.
Xun Zhiwen was born in the outer sect of the Wu Dang Mountain, but this information was not reliable. Most sects did not deny that they were related to the Dao Sect. Many sects called themselves the outer sect of Wudang Mountain, but in reality, Wudang Mountain had never admitted to having any outer sect.
Heaven’s Eyes floated into the wooden building. The first floor didn’t seem to be anything special. A few beautiful maids were cleaning the room. It was obvious that people at their level didn’t come in contact with any secrets, so they couldn’t tell anything out of the ordinary.
Heaven’s Eyes floated to the second floor and saw a woman leaning against the window as she stared blankly outside.
An Zheng was slightly startled, because he had seen this woman before. She was the zither master of the fifth floor of Xi Ping Inn that An Zheng had reserved. An Zheng had only met the zither master once, and without An Zheng’s summons, she had never come into contact with him before. Unlike Lan Xi and the others who were lively and lively, this woman always looked a little depressed. An Zheng did not expect her status to be high enough to be able to enter the City Lord’s residence.
The woman looked outside, her eyes unfocused.
For people like Xun Zhiwen, it was not surprising for them to be able to take care of a few beautiful girls, so An Zheng did not pay attention to it in the first place. However, just as Heaven’s Eyes was about to fly away and continue to climb up, he suddenly saw that girl stand up. Then, a grey shadow quickly flew in, passed something to the girl, and disappeared.
Although the thing was extremely fast and no one inside or outside of the wooden building could see it, An Zheng’s eyesight was far superior to normal people, and he was still able to clearly see what that thing was.
Monkey.
Furthermore, An Zheng was sure that he had seen the monkey before. It was a dirty monkey, with a collar around its neck. It was obviously domesticated. And not long ago, An Zheng had seen it … The monkey on the shoulder of the impoverished old man called Ye Changkong.
An Zheng was slightly taken aback, what was the relationship between this girl and Ye Changkong? Why did the monkey sneak in to deliver?
An Zheng’s mind moved, and Heaven’s Eyes was left on the second floor. The woman looked around with something in her hand. After confirming that no one was paying attention to her, she closed the window. She walked quickly to the inner room, then took the item out and looked at it. It was a slip of paper.
Heaven’s Eye looked behind the woman and saw that there were only a few words on the paper.
If it was broken, so be it.
What did these four words mean?
After the woman finished reading, she quickly stuffed the note into her mouth and actually ate it. Judging from her outstanding appearance and well-built figure, he wondered what her relationship was with that impoverished old man. However, the murderous intent these four words faintly revealed made An Zheng certain that he had misjudged them previously.
That old man clearly wasn’t a mortal. However, when An Zheng saw that old man with his Heaven’s Eyes, he was indeed not a cultivator. Perhaps he had some skill that others didn’t know about, and could perfectly conceal the aura of a cultivator on his body.
Right at this time, Xun Zhiwen returned.
He pushed the door open and walked in front of the woman. Then, he slapped her to the ground.
“Lord …”
The woman fell to the ground and covered her face as she cried out.
There was a flicker in her eyes, as if she thought she had been discovered. But after Xun Zhiwen beat her up, he sat on the chair furiously and said, “Get over here and make me some tea!”
The woman immediately got up to make him some tea, but her expression softened a little.
Xun Zhiwen said angrily: “I truly misjudged this, I did not expect that the little thing would actually hide itself so deeply. “You, go and contact him. Tell him that I am about to die and tell him that there is no need to hide anymore!”
“Oh!”
The girl responded with a “oh” as killing intent flashed across her eyes.
