Lei Ying's face darkened as he looked at the things on the table. Although he didn't quite understand the other party's intentions, he could guess that the other party had used this jade sword to send the jade slip to the courtyard. This made him very angry, he had never seen such a rude person before. Lei Ying looked at the jade slip on the table. Although he didn't quite understand the other party's intentions, he could guess that the other party had used this jade slip to send the jade slip to the courtyard.
Lei Ying didn't care too much, he directly picked up the jade slip and used his spiritual force to scan it. Then a message appeared in his mind, "Respected Lei Ying Gang Leader, hello, I'm someone you don't know. This time, I have no choice but to use this method to communicate with Lei Ying Gang. I have something that I need Lei Ying Gang Leader's help with. Of course, I won't mistreat you and will give you a fifth-grade crystal. What I need Lei Ying Gang Leader's help is very simple, I need to find a person called Ren Long, an inner disciple of the Eight Sword Sect. His nickname is the Eight Sword Human Dragon, he's very lecherous. Because he offended the Sealed Sword Sect, he fled to the Thirteen Mang Strongholds. Below is a portrait of this person, I hope Lei Ying Gang Leader can help me find this person. Of course, Lei Ying Gang Leader must pay attention to this matter. If Lei Ying Gang Leader really does this, then the consequences will be very serious. Right, I forgot to tell Lei Ying Gang Leader that in order to ensure that our cooperation will go smoothly, I had no choice but to poison everyone in the Lei Ying Gang. In order to make Lei Ying Gang Leader believe my words, in about an incense stick's worth of time, someone from the Lei Ying Gang will be poisoned to death. Lei Ying Gang Leader doesn't need to make a fuss, this is just to make Lei Ying Gang Leader believe my words. Also, I hope Lei Ying Gang Leader doesn't use false information to deceive me. Otherwise, I can guarantee that no one from the Lei Ying Gang will live to see tomorrow's sun."
Lei Ying's face turned ashen with just these words and a portrait. He had never thought that the other party would have such means. This was truly out of his expectations.
Moreover, the other party's words implied that he had already poisoned the Thunderhawk Gang. In order to make him believe that, he had already poisoned the Thunderhawk Gang. After an incense stick's worth of time, the Thunderhawk Gang would be poisoned to death. This wasn't cooperation at all, it was simply provocation.
Lei Ying immediately shouted, "Men, quickly, send people to look around and see if there are any suspicious people. See if anyone came here just now, quickly."
Just as he finished speaking, a voice came from outside. The voice responded and immediately went to give the order. All the members of the Thunderhawk Gang in the stronghold ran out to look for the person who might have come to the Thunderhawk Gang.
Zhao Hai had been lying on the table in the tavern. He was aware of what was happening in the Thunderhawk Gang's stronghold. However, he didn't move. In any case, he had been in the tavern for a long time. Everyone knew that he was there, so no one would suspect him. Therefore, as long as he didn't move, nothing would happen.
Since the tavern Zhao Hai was in wasn't far from the Thunderhawk Gang's stronghold, people from the Thunderhawk Gang would certainly come to check. Zhao Hai didn't want to arouse the Thunderhawk Gang's suspicions, so he just lay there and didn't move.
Generally speaking, it was hard for cultivators to get drunk. As long as they circulated their spiritual qi, they would be able to dissolve the alcohol. However, cultivators who loved to drink wouldn't do this. Using spiritual qi to dissolve the alcohol wouldn't make them drunk, but what was the point of drinking then? Wasn't drinking supposed to be that feeling of dizziness? Even if the wine was dissolved, that feeling would still be there. So if you see a drunk cultivator in a tavern, don't be surprised. There was nothing strange about it, cultivators getting drunk was very normal.
Sure enough, before long, the people from the Thunderhawk Gang arrived at the tavern. When the owner saw them, he immediately went up to them. Moreover, it was clear that he was very familiar with this person. He smiled and said, "Third Master, how come you're here today? Do you want to have a drink?"
The person who was called Third Master shook his head and said, "I don't want to drink. Drunkard, I want to ask you, did anyone come in just now?"
It was clear that the drunkard was talking to the owner of the tavern. The owner shook his head and said, "No, Third Master. It's been half an hour since anyone came in."
Third Master looked at the people in the tavern and then said, "Drunkard, don't lie to me. Otherwise, you won't have a good time. Did anyone really come in just now?"
The tavern owner said, "Master Sanye, how could I dare to lie to you? Absolutely not. Really. They have been in the tavern for a long time. You see, some of them are drunk." The tavern owner pointed to Zhao and the other two drunkards.
Third Master wasn't interested in the drunkards. Therefore, he just nodded and then left the tavern. He didn't suspect anything. In fact, it was impossible for him to suspect anything. This was because the owner of the tavern wouldn't dare to lie to him.
Time passed by little by little. Lei Ying was counting the time. He wanted to see if the Thunderhawk Gang would have died in the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.
Soon, an incense stick's worth of time passed. At this time, Lei Ying suddenly heard a 'plop' sound coming from the courtyard. He stared, then his expression changed. He quickly went out of the room and saw a Thunderhawk Gang Cultivator lying on the ground. His whole body was black, he was already dead.
This person was a Hall Master of the Thunderhawk Gang. He didn't go out. In other words, he was inside the gang. But now, he was poisoned to death. This ruled out the possibility that he was poisoned through contact with someone outside the gang.
Lei Ying knew that the other party must have poisoned them. However, he didn't know how the other party managed to control the poison. Moreover, it seems like the other party wasn't joking.
In fact, Lei Ying also understood that if the other party was looking for Ren Long, it was absolutely impossible for them to invite him for a drink. They must be looking for trouble with Ren Long. And since Ren Long was an inner disciple of the Eight Sword Sect, he must be very strong. If the other party was looking for trouble with Ren Long, then it was clear that the other party was strong. The reason why the other party used this method to talk to him was that they didn't want him to know their identity. Thinking of this, Lei Ying immediately said to the people who surrounded him, "Go, inform everyone that there's no need to look for him. Everyone can return." Although these people didn't understand why Lei Ying changed his mind, they still immediately went to find out. Before long, everyone from the Thunderhawk Gang returned to their stronghold.
After everyone returned, Lei Ying called the Hall Masters to his room. After everyone sat down, Lei Ying opened his mouth and said, "Take a look at this jade slip. After you read it, we'll talk about other things." Then he handed the jade slip over to a Hall Master. The Hall Master was puzzled as he received the jade slip. Then he used his spiritual force to scan the jade slip.
After reading the contents of the jade slip, the Hall Master looked at Lei Ying and said, "The Eight Sword Sect, the Sealed Sword Sect, and the Gang Leader. These are all big shots that we can't afford to offend." After saying that, the Hall Master passed the jade slip to the person next to him. The person next to him also took a look at the contents of the jade slip before passing it to the next person.
After everyone had read the contents of the jade slip, Lei Ying looked at everyone and said, "What do you think? What do you think? What do you think about this matter? "
"Old Wen's death must be related to this person. Moreover, it seems like he's after Ren Long. Gang Leader, this Ren Long is from the Eight Sword Sect. Although the Eight Sword Sect can't be considered a big sect, it's still very strong. The person who chased after Ren Long might be related to the Sealed Sword Sect. However, this person should be from the Righteous Path. Why is he so good at using poison?"
"No matter what the reason is, the most important thing is what we should do. Old Wen's death is a warning to us. If we don't follow his orders, I'm afraid he won't be polite. Therefore, I think we should inquire about Ren Long's whereabouts."
Everyone nodded. Now that the other party had placed a blade on their necks, they had no choice but to do it. In the end, everyone's gaze turned to Lei Ying.
Lei Ying looked at everyone and said, "It's good that you don't object. I also have the same idea. No matter what, we must inquire about Ren Long. If we inquire about Ren Long, he might not know that it's us. Therefore, it's better to inquire about Ren Long's whereabouts first."
Everyone nodded. Then Lei Ying said, "This jade slip only says that Ren Long fled to the Thirteen Mang Mountain Strongholds. Our Thunder Hawk Gang is still good in the city, but once we leave the city, we won't be able to do anything. Therefore, we should inquire about the situation in the city first. If we don't find anything, then we'll explain it to him. After all, the Thirteen Mang Mountain Strongholds are in many cities, it's impossible for us to inquire about all of them."
Everyone nodded, then Lei Ying said, "Alright, let's make the arrangements. If this Ren Long is really in the city, then we have to beat him up. Also, send me a portrait of Ren Long. I want to see if we can give him the fifth-grade crystal." Lei Ying nodded and said, "Alright, let's make arrangements. If Ren Long is really in the city, then we have to send him a portrait.
When Lei Ying said this, everyone stared. Then they remembered that besides threatening them, the other party also didn't promise to give them a fifth-grade crystal. A fifth-grade crystal wasn't an ordinary thing. Although it was said that a fifth-grade crystal stone could be exchanged for 500 first-grade crystal stones in the market, no one believed this exchange price. This was because a fifth-grade crystal stone was much more useful than a first-grade crystal stone. Not to mention 500 first-grade crystal stones in exchange for a fifth-grade crystal stone, even if you took out 700 or 800 first-grade crystal stones, you might not necessarily be able to exchange for a first-grade crystal stone.
Looking at it this way, a fifth-grade crystal didn't seem to be worth anything. At most, a thousand first-grade crystals could be exchanged for a fifth-grade crystal. However, this wasn't how things were calculated. It was impossible for a force like Lei Ying's group to obtain a fifth-grade crystal. In fact, there were only three types of crystals circulating in the market, first, second, and third-grade. Only these three types of crystals would circulate in the market. Fourth-grade crystals generally wouldn't circulate in the market. Only the disciples of the Great Sects could get their hands on them. Therefore, it seems like a fifth-grade crystal was a good thing.
The reason why Lei Ying mentioned the fifth-grade crystal was because he wanted the people in the gang to investigate this matter seriously. Lei Ying was worried that if the people in the gang didn't investigate this matter seriously, then they would die.
Lei Ying wasn't the same as some of the people in the gang. He had a clear understanding of the disciples of the Great Sects. You can't take their words seriously. They might not necessarily give you the benefits they promised, but if you don't do as they say, then you will certainly be in trouble. In other words, in Lei Ying's eyes, the disciples of the Great Sects were people who only took advantage of others and didn't suffer any losses. They only took advantage of others and didn't give any benefits.
When Zhao Hai saw this from the tavern, he knew that there was no need to continue watching. He stood up, paid the bill, and then walked outside. After leaving the tavern, he immediately went to the transmission formation. Then he directly took the transmission formation and went to another city of the 13 Mang Mountain Cities.
Before long, Zhao Hai arrived at another city. This was also one of the 13 Mang Mountain Cities. Then he stayed in this city for two days. Just like how he dealt with the Thunderhawk Gang, he dealt with a gang and had them inquire about Ren Long's whereabouts. Then he went to another city.
Just as Zhao Hai arrived at the fifth city, the Thunderhawk Gang received news that they couldn't find Ren Long. Zhao Hai directly used a jade sword to send them a message, telling them to continue their search. However, he also told them to write the information in a jade slip and place it under a large rock in the city. He also placed a fifth-grade crystal there as a reward. As long as they continue their search, they would naturally receive benefits in the future.
When the Thunderhawk Gang arrived at the rock, they found a fifth-grade crystal. This made the Thunderhawk Gang very happy. Naturally, they inquired even more carefully.
After spending nearly a month, Zhao Hai finally found people in the 13 Mang Mountain Cities and had them look for Ren Long. Naturally, he also gave them some benefits. Then he sat down and waited for the news.
On the tenth day after he subdued these gangs, he finally received news that these gangs had found Ren Long. They found Ren Long in Bright Wind City. This Ren Long was really good at hiding. He didn't run around in Bright Wind City. Instead, he found a small house in the city and stayed there. He lived in seclusion every day and kept a very low profile. In the beginning, the gangs in Bright Wind City didn't find him. But later, Ren Long couldn't help himself and ran to a brothel in Bright Wind City. This was how the gangs in Bright Wind City found him and followed the clues to find him.
Then the people in Mang Mountain Cities immediately informed Zhao Hai of Ren Long's whereabouts. Zhao Hai immediately went to Mang Mountain Cities and personally went to Ren Long's courtyard. He also saw Ren Long with his own eyes. Only then did he feel relieved. Then he gave the gangs their rewards. At the same time, he also gave them the antidote and canceled the mission.
The gangs didn't think that Zhao Hai would actually give them rewards. He also gave them the antidote. This made them very happy. Then they immediately returned to their own gangs and had people test the antidote. After confirming that it was really an antidote and not a poison, they took it. For them, this matter was already over. This was the true portrayal of low-level Cultivators.
