Lu Sheng couldn't understand Divine Lord Tong Yi's feelings, at least not right now.
"Report! Masters, we've found Jing Hong's whereabouts! Surveillance personnel are in position, checking his whereabouts every ten breaths! "
On a slope in the distance, a grey figure leaped over and gently bowed to the two of them. This was an expert sent by the Yin Yang Agency and Turquoise Conch Agency. He was a small expert in the area, but he was nothing compared to Lu Sheng and Tong Yi.
"Have you confirmed his location?" Lu Sheng asked faintly.
"Yes, Master. Jing Hong is having lunch at the Phoenix Soaring Restaurant in Caiyi Town," the person quickly replied.
"Let's go take a look. An expert from Wasp must have something special about him, "Tong Yi suggested with a smile.
"Mm." Lu Sheng smiled as well. His eyes flickered.
This Jing Hong wasn't just a scapegoat. He remembered that Shizi Xing's mission also mentioned Wasp.
When he studied the mission last night, he found that part of the content was somehow related to this Jing Hong.
'Looks like it wasn't a coincidence that Shizi Xing gave me this mission …' The thought flashed through Lu Sheng's mind. He followed Divine Lord Tong Yi, and a cloud appeared under their feet. With the help of True Qi, the two rose into the air and flew towards the nearby Caiyi Town.
Tong Yi was a very old man, and he knew quite a lot of small methods of using Zhen Qi. He conveniently set up a concealing formation for the two of them. In this way, not even the ordinary people on the street could see the two clouds that they were riding.
In a dozen breaths' time, the two slowly landed near Caiyi Town. They walked along the road into the town surrounded by walls.
All kinds of hawking, bargaining sounds, and yelling noises continuously poured into their ears in a messy manner.
"This Caiyi Town seems to be quite crowded. It's usually this busy." Tong Yi was a bit surprised.
"That's right." Lu Sheng nodded. "This is the best dye production area in the entire county. There are many merchants coming and going, so it's only natural that it's popular." He had read quite a bit of this basic information in various books.
Tong Yi nodded in understanding. Under the guidance of the Turquoise Conch Agency's men, the two soon arrived in front of a two-story restaurant.
Six yellow lanterns were hung under the eaves of the restaurant, arranged in a rhombus shape. In the middle of the lanterns was a wooden signboard with the words' Soaring Phoenix Restaurant 'written on it.
Before the two of them entered the building, they smelled a strong fragrance of flowers mixed with wine.
"Such a fragrance is rare even in the Yin Capital. Not bad, not bad. This trip was worth it. "Tong Yi was suddenly interested. He strode into the building.
Lu Sheng was a little slower. His gaze seemed to sweep across the many customers in the restaurant. He followed closely behind.
As soon as the two of them entered, a waiter immediately came up to greet them.
"This way, please. Would you like to have a bottle of our Nine Flowers Nine Honey Wine first?"
"Oh? What's this Nine Flowers Nine Honey Wine? "Tong Yi asked with interest.
"A drink is better than a thousand words. You'll know if it's good or not after you try it, esteemed guest." The young man looked quite clever. His words were neither servile nor overbearing. He was polite while promoting his wine in a friendly manner.
Lu Sheng couldn't help but laugh. He was about the same age as the waiter, yet he acted like an old man.
His gaze quickly fell on a brawny man in black who was gorging himself in the corner of the restaurant.
This was his target.
Divine Weapon Hunter Jing Hong, a top expert who had once betrayed the Jing Family.
Lu Sheng noticed that Jing Hong's table was close to the door. There were two dirty beggars at the door, staring at the food on his table with sparkling eyes. The restaurant's guard was right next to them, but he didn't pay them any attention.
Jing Hong didn't even look at the two beggars. Instead, he would casually throw some food that didn't seem to fit his taste to the two.
This was a strange tacit understanding. Jing Hong would occasionally throw food over, and the two beggars wouldn't beg for it. They just waited patiently.
Lu Sheng noticed this, and his heart stirred slightly. This Jing Hong didn't seem to be the evil person the reports said he was.
Although Lu Sheng didn't think he was a good person, he had his own bottom line.
He liked to kill bad people because he himself wasn't a good person. The less bad people there were, the more good people there were.
The more good people there were, the more comfortable his life would be. After all, good people didn't need to be on guard at all times. And bad people might even become his competitors.
"He's a good person after all …" Tong Yi took a sip of the Nine Flowers Nine Honey Wine and sighed in admiration.
He drank it all in one gulp.
"Let's go. Since there's good in our hearts, we should try to avoid killing people."
Lu Sheng stood up with Tong Yi and walked straight to Jing Hong in the corner.
At this time, the customers in the restaurant were gradually being evacuated. The people of the Yin Yang Agency and the Turquoise Conch Agency weren't afraid that Jing Hong would run away. With the two masters here, if Jing Hong could still escape, then he was truly extraordinary. People of their level wouldn't even have to run errands for him.
Jing Hong also noticed the abnormality. He looked at Tong Yi and the beggar who were walking toward him.
"I don't like to be disturbed when I'm drinking." He couldn't tell how strong the two were, but many experts had their own concealment methods. Unless they were a Weapon Grandmaster, no one could see through all their concealment methods. Therefore, he didn't panic.
Because of his confidence in his own strength, he didn't panic at all.
"We're not here to disturb you." Tong Yi smiled and stopped Lu Sheng, who was about to speak. He took a step forward and sat across from Jing Hong.
Jing Hong's hand, which was holding the braised duck leg, paused slightly. He looked up at Tong Yi. He had been famous for many years and was cruel. He naturally exuded a vicious aura. He didn't expect that other than the two beggars, there would be someone else who could talk to him so casually.
He already noticed that these two people came especially for him.
Seeing that Tong Yi was so interested, Lu Sheng sat down with him. However, compared to the long life of a Divine Lord, he was still very young. He didn't understand what was so interesting about Tong Yi's meaningless actions.
Tong Yi and Jing Hong chatted for a bit and seemed to be getting more and more excited. Lu Sheng wasn't interested in the philosophy of life they were talking about. His attention was focused on the group of saber-wielding pugilistic people eating meat and drinking wine in the restaurant.
These people were all wearing flashy white robes with golden silk belts around their waists. They also wore thousand-layer leather boots embroidered with patterns of flowers and clouds.
These people were originally just sitting quietly and eating, but then they started fighting with the experts from the Yin Yang Agency. They didn't want to leave and weren't afraid of trouble. They completely ignored the Yin Yang Agency's hints. He just sat there and continued to drink.
Three men and three women, all from the same faction. They all had the word "Luo" embroidered on their robes. The people from the Yin Yang Agency saw that they didn't listen, so they didn't bother. If they really fought, they deserved to die or be crippled.
At this time, Tong Yi's disciple, Liu Qingyuan, also arrived. With a disciple present, he naturally wouldn't let his teacher go. And as the Divine Lord and a senior, Lu Sheng naturally wouldn't let him go first. Otherwise, wouldn't it seem like the entire Moling Prefecture was empty?
Liu Qingyuan walked up to Jing Hong's table and stood behind Tong Yi without moving an inch.
Tong Yi didn't say anything now. After chatting with Jing Hong, he roughly understood that this person wasn't as cruel as he imagined. Thus, Liu Qingyuan didn't plan on using an impolite method to communicate with him.
"Jing Hong?" Liu Qingyuan smiled and walked in front of Jing Hong. "Can you tell me why you keep hunting Divine Weapons? You should also know that the Weapon Masters of those Divine Armaments represent the interests of the great clans, sects, and schools. Once they, who are the pillars of support, die, how big of a mess will there be? How many people will lose their homes, be hit while they are down, and die a violent death? "
Jing Hong's eyebrows were very thick. His eyes were filled with determination and confidence.
"I know. That's why I choose people who are more evil than good." His expression was calm as he looked up at Liu Qingyuan. His gaze fell on the Judge Brush Divine Weapon on his waist.
"You dare to promise?" Liu Qingyuan raised an eyebrow.
"Of course."
The two immediately fell silent.
"I believe you're not that kind of person. From the moment you entered until now, I haven't seen any violence in your eyes. "Tong Yi shook his head and sighed." Can I ask, why are you here? "
Jing Hong remained silent. He raised his cup and drank.
"You can leave. I don't want to kill anymore," he said calmly.
In his eyes, Tong Yi and the others were at most Divine Weapon Master level. However, he had already lost count of the number of Divine Weapon Masters and Devil Kings that had died in his hands.
Divine Weapon Hunter wasn't a nickname he got for no reason. It was built on countless bloody battles and accumulated bit by bit.
"You can leave. I don't want to kill anymore." Suddenly, a girl's voice came from a nearby table.
Then, she couldn't help but chuckle. The one who spoke was the group of people in white who didn't want to leave.
"Little Junior Sister, don't be rude. When you're outside, etiquette comes first. Have you forgotten your father's teachings? "a slightly older man among the people in white scolded sternly.
"Yes, yes, yes. Senior Brother Yuan, I'll be careful." The youngest of the female disciples covered her mouth and giggled.
"We're here on an important mission. Don't cause any unnecessary trouble. Let's go. Don't get in their way, "a gentle-looking girl among the people in white suggested softly.
"Yes, Senior Sister." The others all agreed. Clearly, this person had the highest status among them.
Jing Hong retracted his gaze.
"Come with me. You won't be fine just because you say you're innocent. I need you to answer for the recent murders. "Although Tong Yi had spoken, Liu Qingyuan didn't plan on letting this person go.
Even if he wasn't the one responsible for the recent murders, this person was still a wanted criminal in the Great Yin.
Undercurrents slowly flowed from the two of them.
One was a Divine Lord's personal disciple, powerful. The other was a Divine Weapon Hunter, equally powerful. Waves of twisting power flowed between the two of them. Although they didn't actually fight, the battle between Divine Weapons had already begun through the void between them.
Tong Yi didn't move, but a force field sphere was released from his body. It completely sealed off the area where the two were fighting, isolating everything from the outside world.
Lu Sheng sat on the side and took a sip of his wine. It tasted good. He could tell that Divine Lord Tong Yi didn't really want to capture Jing Hong. This person didn't seem like someone who would do something like that.
But that didn't matter. It didn't matter whether Tong Yi wanted to capture him or not. Shizi Xing's mission was to retrieve the Tian 'er Blade.
The Tian 'er Blade was in the hands of someone called Xu Qi. Coincidentally, this Xu Qi was Jing Hong's older brother. And his biological brother. He was also from Wasp.
Clearly, this mission was assigned to him because he happened to be here.
