Even if it was only due to the pressure of public opinion, the higher-ups of the Soaring Pavilion would definitely take action. At that time, the experts of the Law Enforcement Hall would inevitably be involved. Not to mention the fact that everyone knew about the Three Heroes of the Nan Clan. Once Nan Tianyong died, the other two heroes would definitely seek revenge.
With so many people watching him, unless there was something wrong with Lin Er's brain, there was no way he would continue to swagger around the market. If he didn't take the initiative to show himself, it would be easier said than done!
Seeing this, Yu Zhe carefully suggested, "Martial Uncle, although this disciple doesn't know this Lin Second's exact background, according to what this disciple knows, he seems to be acquainted with the manager of the Hong Merchant Group in the inner street, Hong Zhong. We should be able to find out some useful information from him."
"Oh? Martial Nephew, are you sure? This Loose Cultivator actually knows the shopkeeper of the Hong Clan Merchant Association? That's not simple! "Southern Sky Gate was slightly stunned.
Unlike Qingnantian Yong, who had been in seclusion for the past few years, Southern Sky Gate was very clear about the weight of the Hong Clan Merchant Association. It was truly a colossus. Even if he was only the shopkeeper of the North Island branch, he would still be an incredible figure.
For a mere Loose Cultivator like Lin Er to be acquainted with the shopkeeper of the Hong Clan Merchant Association, in the eyes of a knowledgeable person like Southern Sky Gate, this news was even more shocking than him instantly killing Nan Tianyong!
Yu Zhe nodded in confirmation, "Although I don't know how close these two are, according to my speculation, Hong Zhong seems to have given Lin Er a Spirit Jade Card recently."
This conjecture was purely the conclusion that Yu Zhe came up with after much thought. Even though it was a little groundless, this person's brain was good and he really guessed the whole story.
The basis of his speculation was the three times he and Lin Yi met in the inner street.
The first time, the two of them took advantage of the opening day of the inner street and saw the Star Inkstone at the Hong Clan Merchant Association.
The second time, the two of them met again on the opening day of the inner street a month later. At the same time, they rushed to the Hong Clan Merchant Association to compete for the Star Inkstone. From this, it could be seen that Lin Yi definitely didn't have a Spirit Jade Card on him, nor did he have the right to freely enter and exit the inner street. He would definitely buy the Star Inkstone before this happened.
The third time, it was not the opening day of the inner street. Yu Zhe was able to enter the inner street completely because of the spirit jade card in the hands of his cheapskate master, Nan Tianyong. However, what surprised him the most was that he actually met Lin Yi for the third time at the Hong Merchant Association!
When the Inner Street was not open to the public, there were only two types of people who could freely enter and exit the Inner Street. One was the disciples of the Three Great Pavilions whose status and strength were recognized by the market, and the other was the VIP who held the Spirit Jade Card.
Yu Zhe had been buried in the library for the past three years. However, he knew all the famous people in the Three Great Pavilions like the back of his hand. At the very least, he had never seen Lin Er's face before. Otherwise, with his photographic memory, he would have recognized him the first time he saw him.
Since it was not the first one. The only possibility left was the second one. This Lin Er didn't have a Spirit Jade Card, but for some reason, after buying the Star Inkstone from the Hong Clan Chamber of Commerce, he suddenly had one.
So naturally, Yu Zhe had this conjecture. Hong Zhong gave Lin Er a Spirit Jade Card!
Although this matter was a little unimaginable, he knew that Lin Er had something like the Foundation Establishment Barrier Breaking Pill in his hands. Businessmen always liked rare goods, so it was not difficult to understand why Hong Zhong gave Lin Er a Spirit Jade Card because he thought highly of him.
"Spirit Jade Card? Interesting, even someone at the level of number three doesn't have the right to receive a Spirit Jade Card. If I remember correctly, this guy went to find boss to borrow his Spirit Jade Card a few days ago? "Southern Sky Gate asked with a cold laugh.
"That's right, the Spirit Jade Card can bring another person into the Inner Street. Without this Spirit Jade Card, we wouldn't have met Lin Er this time." Yu Zhe nodded.
"Hmph! A piece of trash who can't even get a Spirit Jade Card. If he lives, he will only bring shame to our Nan Clan. Oh right, Martial Nephew, did you find Eldest Brother's Spirit Jade Card on his body? If boss comes back and finds out that his Spirit Jade Card is gone, he will go crazy! "Southern Sky Gate frowned.
On the Five Great Islands of Heaven Stage, the Spirit Jade Card was the best proof of a person's status. Even the strongest person would value it. Even the boss of the Nan Clan's Three Heroes was no exception.
Hearing this, Yu Zhe's heart tightened. The Spirit Jade Card that Nan Tianyong borrowed from boss was now in his hands along with the other treasures that were gathered from Nan Tianyong's body.
Although he knew that without the owner's Qi, even if he had the Spirit Jade Card in his hands, he wouldn't be able to use a single bit of it. This was because to use the Spirit Jade Card, one had to input Qi and pass through the joint formation of the Merchant Guild!
But Yu Zhe couldn't resist the temptation! The owner of this Spirit Jade Card was the boss of the Nan Clan's Three Heroes. The number of Spirit Jades on it was enough to dazzle any cultivator. Yu Zhe was no exception.
It was rumored that as long as he could find the cooperation of a top Merchant Guild or someone from the Merchant Guild, even if it was someone else's Spirit Jade Card, there was a way to extract all the Spirit Jades from it.
Therefore, even though he knew that it was dangerous to keep this Spirit Jade Card, Yu Zhe still couldn't bear to throw it away. The Spirit Jades in this Spirit Jade Card were enough to surpass the value of all the treasures he found on Nan Tianyong's body. This was something he could rely on in the future, how could he throw it away?
"Reporting to Martial Uncle, Lin Er's killing move was too shocking. Many things on Master's body were lost. After that, it attracted a lot of onlookers from the nearby market. I couldn't care too much and could only steal Master's body. As for Martial Uncle's Spirit Jade Card, I don't know who picked it up in the chaos." Although Yu Zhe was panicking, he didn't show it on his face and replied calmly.
There were truths and lies in his words. Even a smart person like Southern Sky Gate wouldn't be able to determine the truth in such a short amount of time, unless he suspected Yu Zhe from the beginning and directly searched his body or his cave.
Unfortunately, although Southern Sky Gate didn't have a good relationship with Nan Tianyong, he still admired Nan Tianyong's disciple, Yu Zhe.
