Discovered Clues; Ye Jing and His Attendant Under Investigation?

Night.

Horizon Inn.

With a nervous heart, Liu Donglin randomly found a table and sat down.

I called the waiter and ordered some snacks to go with my drinks.

So they started eating slowly.

His heart was far from calm; it felt like a tsunami was raging inside!

Ye Jing.

He's now the most wanted criminal in the entire Dali.

Of course, he didn't commit any serious crimes.

He only protected his family by killing several nobles from the Taixu Profound Realm.

That is precisely why it is the greatest sin.

He couldn't kill those important people.

You can't even touch a single finger.

The Great Li Dynasty also tried to protect Ye Jing, after all, Ye Jing was the greatest contributor to the current Emperor of Dali's ascension to the throne!

But soon, the Emperor of Dali gave in.

After all, the other party could destroy Dali with just one finger.

Left with no other choice, the current Dali of Dali still issued an arrest warrant.

He wanted to help, but lacked the ability to do so.

He was just a lowly constable!

Just when I thought Ye Jing would never come back,

But just today during the day...

Someone actually called himself Ye Jing.

This really gave him a big fright.

He took a small sip of his drink, glanced around at the diners, and looked at them.

I don't know which one is Ye Jing in disguise.

The reason he was certain that the voice in his heart belonged to Ye Jing was because of this inn.

Horizon Inn!

This is the place Ye Jing's father and he loved to visit most.

Cheap vegetables!

The wine itself wasn't very good; the shopkeeper liked to dilute it with water, but the quantity was plentiful.

The two often talked for an entire evening.

However, after Ye Jing's father died, he only came a few times.

I found the drinks here to be so bad that they were almost inedible. I don't know how I used to be able to drink such inferior beverages.

"Uncle Li, try to keep a calm expression!"

Sudden.

A voice resounded in his heart.

His pupils contracted slightly, and he almost dropped the wine glass in his hand, but he quickly regained his composure.

"For safety reasons, I will not show myself. I hope Uncle Li will understand!"

"Uncle Li can communicate with me directly through telepathy!"

Ye Jing's voice rang out again.

Li Donglin finally spoke the words he had been holding back, "Nephew, why did you come back? Leave quickly, the Imperial Capital is full of experts now!"

"Don't worry, Uncle Li, I know. I only came to the Imperial Capital when I was sure of my safety, so you don't need to worry about that. Let's get down to business!"

"Uncle Li, I need your help with something. I need to leave the Imperial Capital for a long time."

Ye Jing was not near the Horizon Inn at this time, but outside the city. He was using telepathy through a specially made array.

"What's up?"

Li Dongling responded.

"Uncle Li, there's something I can't tell you, but I can tell you about the benefits."

He believed that Li Donglin would not betray him, but he was not sure if the Ye Family and Li Families would do something underhanded.

We still need to be careful where necessary!

"Ten High-grade Spirit Stones every month, and I guarantee your son will be able to cultivate to the Great Grandmaster realm!"

Li Donglin was a cultivator, but only at the Innate Realm.

In Yamen that routinely handles miscellaneous tasks, he would be considered a minor expert.

However, it's still not enough to Imperial Capital in the Dali!

The salary for this level is ten Mid-grade Spirit Stones per month, while one hundred Mid-grade Spirit Stones are needed to exchange for one High-grade Spirit Stone!

One month's salary was roughly equivalent to nine years of Li Donglin's salary!

And there's an additional condition: he must guarantee that his son will reach the Great Grandmaster realm!

This is a benefit that cannot be measured in Spirit Stones.

In the Dali, reaching the Great Grandmaster level is enough to establish a sect!

Li Donglin indeed gasped slightly; he could hardly refuse such treatment!

"Uncle Li, don't worry, this matter is not difficult for you, it's actually very simple, and there's no danger. It just might require you to disappear from the world for a while."

Ye Jing spoke again.

Having lived most of his life, Li Donglin naturally knew his living habits and those of ordinary people very well.

Teaching those blank slates on the island shouldn't be too difficult.

"What about my wife and children? If I disappear, someone will definitely notice," Li Donglin asked, frowning.

"Of course we'll bring them along; there won't be any worries." Ye Jing understood this perfectly well.

The Ye Family and Li Families aren't constantly monitoring Uncle Li, mainly because their relationship isn't close, and he hasn't been back to the Imperial Capital for a long time!

But if it disappears, that's another story!

They'll definitely know there's something fishy going on here!

"Okay, then what do I need to do? I've been ordered not to leave the Imperial Capital."

Given his relationship with Ye Jing, it's impossible for him to take no measures.

"Uncle Li, you don't need to worry about that. Just agree, and I'll figure something out!"

"Okay, nephew."

Li Donglin trusted Ye Jing, whether because of his father's connections or because of Ye Jing himself.

He knew that Ye Jing must have his own plans for returning.

"Alright, Uncle Li, from now on, just pretend this never happened and live your normal life!"

After Ye Jing finished speaking, he cut off the telepathic communication!

The sound transmission array left inside the inn also self-destructed, disappearing without a trace!

After finishing his drinks and snacks, Li Donglin quietly left!

And right after he left.

Several figures appeared on the roof.

"No abnormalities or clues were found regarding Ye Jing."

"Sir, there's a piece of information in the file: this was Ye Jing's father's favorite place to visit. Perhaps he's just nostalgic!"

One of the figures spoke softly to the leader.

"Keep investigating. There's definitely something wrong. He wouldn't come here drinking for no reason. Why is he feeling nostalgic today of all times? Is there anything unusual about him today?"

The leading figure asked.

"I spent most of my time inside the government office. I was called out to handle a theft dispute, but I was called back halfway through and ended up spending another day inside the government office."

The leader frowned. Thefts happened every day, almost every day of the month; today was the least.

Li Donglin also handled quite a few cases!

"Is there anything strange happening in the city?" he asked again.

"Nothing happened, but there was one rather bizarre incident: in the west of the city, in front of Li Donglin's government office, several corrupt constables were tricked into shoving excrement in front of the government office!"

The leader looked on in astonishment, "Why?"

"That day, a stranger came in..." The figure explained the whole story. "We've already investigated. The two men, master and servant, have clean identities and clear backgrounds. They were probably just being exploited by the constables, which is why they took action to teach them a lesson. Many similar cases have happened before."

Many people from other places enter and leave the Imperial Capital every day, and most of them are in a master-servant configuration. As long as their background is clean and clear, they will not be subject to much investigation.

"Where are those two strangers? Where do they live? Take me there!"

However, the leader of the Dark Shadow was still not entirely at ease!
