Lin Huang took a step forward and appeared directly on the skeleton bird beast's back.
Seeing this, not only the skeleton bird beast itself, but everyone else thought that it was done for.
Many people even secretly lamented that this stupid bird was really lacking in intelligence — it did not even know to use its brain to lie.
However, in the next second, everyone saw the skeleton bird beast flap its wings and leave with the mysterious black-robed man …
Only a group of onlookers were left looking at each other.
"What's going on? Did that black-robed man really believe the stupid bird's nonsense? "
…
The skeleton bird beast's place of residence was not far from the entrance to the inner world. In less than five minutes, it landed on the roof of a tall building with Lin Huang on its back.
Lin Huang looked at the two or three floors of the building that had caved in, and he knew that this should be the skeleton bird beast's nest. It had slept on the roof until it looked like a bird's nest.
"S-Senior, what do you need me to do?" Even though it was more than ten times larger than Lin Huang, the skeleton bird beast was still as obedient as a primary school student in front of Lin Huang.
After all, he had just killed the eyeball monster in one hit, and its ability was not much stronger than the eyeball monster's.
"Eighth-rank true god-level …" Lin Huang sized up the skeleton bird beast at close range, causing it to panic. "You must've been in this world for many years, right?"
"Yes … some years." The skeleton bird beast hesitated for a moment, but it still nodded.
"That's good …" As soon as Lin Huang finished speaking, his eyes turned pitch-black. The skeleton bird beast's body suddenly froze, and its scarlet eyes were quickly dyed the same pitch-black color at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In Lin Huang's opinion, although the skeleton bird beast's ability was average, its combat strength was at eighth-rank true god-level after all. Moreover, it had been in the inner world for many years, so its understanding of this world was bound to be far greater than that of the Silt Monster from before.
Therefore, he did not hesitate and directly read its memory.
It had to be said that although this skeleton bird beast wasn't very smart, Lin Huang was still able to obtain a lot of useful information from its memories. Most of it was things that the Silt Monster didn't know about, and there were even a few things that the Silt Monster didn't know about.
There was one piece of information that Lin Huang wanted to know the most.
That was the information about the suspected founder of the Magical Fantasy City!
In the memory of the skeleton bird beast, Lin Huang found a story that seemed like a legend.
In ancient times, there were three supreme beings who spread the cultivation method and created this Inner Plane.
One of them was a giant golden dragon, and it was extremely wealthy. One was a Nine-tailed Demon Fox, whose beauty could topple nations. There was another person who was an eminent monk of the Tantric Buddha Seed and had a compassionate heart.
However, there was not much information about these people other than a few stories in the legends.
According to the skeleton bird beast's memory, there was no clear controller in the inner world at the moment. Instead, there were six ninth-rank heavenly god-level powerhouses keeping each other in check.
"Legend has it that three supreme beings created the inner world, so there's a high chance that the castellan's seal was only divided into three pieces. Now that there are six powerhouses keeping each other in check, it's very likely that the castellan's seal is in the hands of three of them. " Lin Huang silently analyzed the ownership of the castellan's seal. "However, I can't completely rule out the possibility that the legend was deliberately used to deceive people. In reality, all six of them have the castellan's seal fragments …
"It's also possible that the six powerhouses on the surface don't have a single fragment, and they're just shields pushed out by the master of the castellan's seal …"
After some analysis, Lin Huang still could not come up with any useful conclusions.
"Although I can't be sure who the castellan's seal belongs to, at least there's a new clue …"
Lin Huang set his sights on the six overlords of the inner world. He was very sure that even if none of them had the castellan's seal fragments, they definitely knew more information about the castellan's seal.
However, Lin Huang did not plan to rashly come into contact with these six powerhouses. He had other plans.
The darkness in its eyes dissipated, and the skeleton bird beast's consciousness gradually returned to normal.
By the time it was fully awake, Lin Huang was no longer on the rooftop of the building.
"Where is he?" The skeleton bird beast looked around but did not see Lin Huang. "What happened just now?"
It tried to recall carefully, but it could not recall exactly what had happened. It only vaguely remembered that there seemed to be a vortex like a black hole under the brim of the black hat …
Unable to recall what had happened, the skeleton bird beast did not bother to waste its already limited brain cells. It shook its head and tossed the unpleasant memory to the back of its mind.
In the inner world, two days passed in the blink of an eye.
At the appointed time, Lin Huang arrived at the tallest building in the city's central area.
He sat down at an open-air restaurant, ordered a drink, and waited patiently for Virtuoso and Lin Huang to arrive.
Two days ago, the three of them had agreed to meet at the bottom of the tallest building.
Although at the time, Lin Huang did not know that there were two worlds inside and outside this phantom city, he knew that Virtuoso and Saber9 would definitely come to this building in the inner world and not the one in the outside world.
As expected, Saber9 appeared downstairs a short while later.
Lin Huang looked in his direction. Saber9 seemed to sense his gaze as well and looked in his direction.
When he saw Lin Huang, Saber9 did not hesitate. He walked directly toward the table where Lin Huang was seated and sat across from him.
"What would you like to drink?" Lin Huang asked with a smile.
Saber9 glanced at the coffee cup in front of Lin Huang. "The same as you will be fine."
The waiter served Saber9's coffee very quickly. The two of them chatted as they sipped their coffee. Neither of them mentioned anything about the castellan's seal.
Virtuoso had not arrived yet, so there was not much point in discussing business now.
The two of them chatted for a while. When Lin Huang saw that he had finished the coffee in his cup, he could not help glancing at the time. "It's almost the appointed time. Don't tell me this fellow is late again?"
Saber9 said rather unhappily, "This fellow just doesn't learn the good things. All he does is pick up all the bad habits from me!"
Fortunately, Virtuoso was not late this time.
They arrived on time at nine o 'clock sharp in the morning.
As soon as they saw Lin Huang and Saber9, they walked directly in their direction and sat down without hesitation.
"You're quite punctual today." Lin Huang pursed his lips.
"Of course. I said I'd be there at nine, so I'll be there at nine. Not even a second off!" Virtuoso said proudly.
"I wonder who it was in the past who never showed up on time." Saber9 unceremoniously undermined Virtuoso.
Virtuoso ignored Saber9's undermining directly and said to the two of them, "Let's stop chatting here. Let's talk business."
Seeing that Virtuoso was trying to change the topic with business, Saber9 could only drop the subject.
"How's your investigation going these two days? Tell me about it. "Virtuoso cut to the chase right away.
