The Moon Pearl Restaurant was one of the more famous restaurants in the Holy City. Therefore, it was usually full of guests and bustling with noise and excitement.
However, the arrival of the three of them caused the place to immediately quieten down. Everyone's eyes were on the three of them. Even if someone spoke, they would deliberately lower their voices.
The waiter brought Wutian and the other two to the only empty table.
The waiter glanced at Wutian with a trace of surprise in his eyes. He smiled obsequiously and said, "Sirs, what do you need?"
You Mo said, "Give me a portion of all the good wine and dishes you have here!"
"Alright, please wait a moment, sirs!"
After saying that, the waiter ran to the back hall.
You Mo glanced at the others around him and frowned slightly. He smiled and said, "Don't be so restrained. Tonight, we're all customers here like you. We have equal status and identity."
"Yes."
Everyone replied respectfully and retracted their gazes. They began to drink and have fun. However, compared to before, this place was much quieter.
There were even people who settled the bill with the waiter and prepared to leave.
Although You Mo's attitude was very good, his status and reputation were right in front of them. How could everyone be at ease and have fun here?
Instead of trembling in fear, they might as well change to another restaurant.
Therefore, gradually, everyone settled the bill and left one after another. In the end, only four tables were left.
To be honest, these guests at these tables were a little uncomfortable. However, they could not help but be curious and wanted to see the three big shots of the Judgment Hall up close.
You Mo did not take everyone's reaction to heart at all. He smiled and said, "Fu Chou, we must not return until we're drunk tonight."
"It's better to drink to our heart's content."
Wutian smiled faintly and looked at the remaining tables intentionally or unintentionally.
These people were all unfamiliar faces!
However, he knew that the people at one of the tables were definitely Li Tian and the Tenth Elder!
That was because Li Tian had already told him that he and the Tenth Elder would change their appearances.
"Sirs, the wine is here."
The waiter shouted and walked over quickly with an exquisite jade plate.
There were three pots of wine and three wine cups on the jade plate.
However, whether it was the wine pot or the wine cups, they were all more exquisite than those on the other tables. It was obvious that the Pearl Moon Restaurant had specially prepared them for the three of them.
The waiter put down the wine jug and wine cups and filled their cups one by one. He said flatteringly, "Sirs, this is the best wine in our store. Please have a taste and see if you are satisfied with it."
You Mo raised his wine cup and drained it in one gulp. He nodded and said, "Not bad."
Wutian and Leng Yue only took a light sip and savored it before nodding.
The waiter was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "Sirs, if there's anything you need, please don't hesitate to tell me. Please enjoy."
The shop assistant turned around and left.
Wutian raised his wine glass. He seemed to be sipping, but in fact, he was observing the other four tables.
There were four people at the first table, two men and two women, so they could be eliminated.
This was because Li Tian and the Tenth Elder were both men.
There were a total of three people at the second table, so they could also be excluded.
There were two people at the third table, and they were both men. One of them was an old man in white, and the other was a young man in black who was about seventeen or eighteen years old.
Wutian looked at the two of them carefully from the corner of his eye. He felt that they were not the same.
Then, he looked at the fourth table. The guests at this table were also two men. They looked to be in their thirties. Their bodies were quite thin, and they looked a little weak.
Judging by common sense, these two people were the most suspicious.
This was because no one would have thought that these two weak people would be the outstanding Li Tian and the Tenth Elder of the Kun Peng Clan.
Wutian secretly sent a message to Li Tian with his Divine Sense into the Earth Elephant Token.
Then, he carefully observed the two people at the fourth table.
However, after waiting for a while, the two of them were still drinking and chatting. There was no movement at all.
Could it be that my judgment was wrong?
Wutian muttered in his heart. He glanced at the old man and the young man at the third table.
Then, he found that the young man in black was holding an Earth Elephant Token in his hand. He was silent and seemed to be reading the message inside seriously.
The old man in white next to him looked at the young man in black in confusion.
The young man in black looked at Wutian intentionally and unintentionally. He murmured a few words in the old man's ear, as if he was explaining something. After hearing this, the old man in white's eyes were no longer confused, but a cold light flashed in his eyes.
Seeing this, Wutian smiled bitterly. So these two people were Li Tian and the Tenth Elder.
Wutian said, "Li Tian, is the Tenth Elder next to you?"
He still wanted to confirm.
The young man in black looked at Wutian again, then looked away. He picked up the wine cup and took a sip.
However, a familiar voice rang out in Wutian's mind. "That's right, he is the 10th Elder!"
Wutian glanced at the old man in white and said to himself, "Your plan is indeed perfect, but I don't understand. Why do you have to go through so much trouble?"
Li Tian asked, "What do you mean?"
Wutian said to himself, "Many things. For example, why do you want me to meet you at the Pearl Moon Pavilion now? Why do you want me to bring You Mo and the others with me? And to wander around the city for half a day? "
"So that's it." Li Tian suddenly understood and explained, "I want you to meet me now with You Mo and the others because I want you to get rid of suspicion."
"Get rid of suspicion?" Wutian was puzzled.
"Yes, think about it. If you had reported to the Lord Hallmaster early in the morning that the Kunpeng Clan's Tenth Elder would come to the Eastern Continent to kill the people who came for the assessment, how would the Lord Hallmaster react? He would definitely ask you where you got the information? How would you answer? You wouldn't be able to answer. "
"That's why we asked you to meet me at the Pearl Moon Pavilion. We want you to pretend that you accidentally recognized the Great Elder and tell You Mo and the others. They will be your witnesses. If the Lord Hallmaster asks, you can explain that you came to the Pearl Moon Pavilion to drink and coincidentally saw through the Tenth Elder's identity."
"In this way, not only will you be rid of suspicion, you will also make a great contribution. Furthermore, the hatred between the Divine Hall and the Kunpeng Clan will intensify. This is killing three birds with one stone."
"As for letting you bring You Mo and the others to wander around the city for half a day, there is actually a purpose."
"Think about it. If you changed the time of the assessment and came to the Pearl Moon Pavilion directly, and then saw through the Tenth Elder's identity, wouldn't that be too much of a coincidence? With the Lord Hallmaster's intelligence, he will definitely suspect that this was arranged in advance. Maybe he won't say it out loud, but he will definitely start to be wary of you. "
"It's different now. Although you purposefully brought Leng Yue and the others to the Pearl Moon Pavilion, only you and I know about this. I even heard You Mo suggest entering the Pearl Moon Pavilion to drink earlier."
"When the Lord Hallmaster learns about this, he will only think that you came to the Pearl Moon Pavilion by accident and coincidentally saw through the Tenth Elder's identity. He will definitely not suspect you. At the same time, he will not think that this is a trap."
"Even if the Lord Hallmaster suspects something, he will only suspect You Mo."
Li Tian secretly explained.
Wutian sighed inside when he heard that. He said secretly, "I never thought that you would even consider such small details. I really can't help but admire your mind."
"Sometimes, it's these insignificant details that ruin the bigger picture. As a result, we need to consider everything thoroughly."
"Not to mention that we are in an extremely dangerous situation right now. We need to take every step carefully, or we will lose everything if we make a single mistake!"
"Furthermore, we don't have the strength to openly contend with the Saints' World. We can only choose a battle of wits with them. If there is even the slightest mistake in this battle of wits, we will end up crushed. So, we can't be careless."
Li Tian smiled faintly.
Wutian thought to himself, "Alright, I'm convinced."
Li Tian chuckled, "The person you admire is wrong. Actually, I didn't think about this detail in the beginning. Someone is secretly helping us."
"Is there really someone?"
Wutian was already shocked. He hurriedly asked, "Who is helping us?"
Li Tian said mysteriously, "It's a secret for now. Find out for yourself."
Wutian said helplessly, "Is there a need to be so secretive?"
Li Tian said inwardly, "Of course, you have to find out for yourself. Otherwise, it wouldn't be a surprise. Don't think about this person's identity for now. Think about how to reveal the Tenth Elder's identity to You Mo and You Yu. "
"Also, don't let the First Palace Master and the others capture the Tenth Elder alive. Otherwise, I will be dragged in as well," Li Tian added. Then, he muttered a few words into the Tenth Elder's ears before getting up and leaving.
After Li Tian left the Moon Pearl Pavilion, Wutian picked up the wine pot and poured himself a drink. However, he would occasionally look at the white-clothed old man. However, each time, it was just a glance, seemingly unintentional.
While Xiao Chen and Li Tian were secretly talking, the waiter had already served a large table of delicacies. The fragrance assailed their noses.
You Mo's appetite was greatly stimulated. He ate one mouthful after another without stopping.
Leng Yue also seemed to be enjoying herself, but it was not as exaggerated as You Mo's.
Soon, the attentive Leng Yue noticed Wutian's abnormality. She turned to look at the white-clothed old man but did not find anything strange. She asked softly, "Fu Chou, what are you looking at?"
"Hmm?"
You Mo also stopped sweeping through the dishes and looked at Wutian in confusion.
Wutian frowned and said softly, "I don't know if it's an illusion, but I keep feeling that the white-clothed old man gives me a very familiar feeling. Furthermore, I don't know if you guys noticed, but when we entered the Moon Pearl Pavilion, his eyes had a trace of killing intent. I can feel that this killing intent is targeted at us."
"Familiar? Killing intent? "
You Mo and You Yu were stunned. They could not help but look at the white-clothed old man.
Wutian transmitted his voice and shouted, "Don't deliberately look!"
The two were startled and hurriedly shifted their gazes. They seemed to casually glance at the hall before withdrawing their gazes and continuing to eat and drink. However, they were secretly paying attention to the white-clothed old man.
After careful observation, the two discovered that the white-clothed old man would occasionally look at them. Furthermore, they really caught a trace of cold light and killing intent in the white-clothed old man's eyes.
