Ye Jing's Chaos Green Lotus Racked Up a Great Merit!
Ye Jing decided to investigate the disappearance of the Blazing Fire Sect disciple in depth to see if he could find any connection with the mysterious organization.
He left the inn and began searching for clues about the missing disciples of the Blazing Fire Sect in every corner of the northern city.
He first went to the location of the Blazing Fire Sect, disguised himself as an official, and inquired about the situation from the disciples and Elder. However, he did not obtain much useful information, only learning that the missing disciples had suddenly disappeared at night.
There were no signs of fighting or struggle!
Therefore, everyone within the sect had already assumed that they had joined the Heaven Slaying Society!
Ye Jing received a message from the Sage Scholar: they haven't been recruiting anyone from the Blazing Fire Sect in the North City recently!
I never imagined that Heaven Slaying Society one day be scapegoated.
But if that's the case, then I'm going to catch you!
Ye Jing's lips curled up into a mischievous grin!
It was midnight, and the moon and stars were few.
Ye Jing secretly sneaked into the room of the missing disciple.
He wanted to use the other person's clothes to track them down!
"Don't waste your energy, you can't track it down!"
A voice suddenly came from the darkness of the room, and Ye Jing was instantly on high alert!
"Who's there?" Ye Jing shouted sharply, and in a flash, he arrived at the source of the voice. But apart from the empty bed and chairs, there was no one in the room.
Ye Jing was wary, but his expression remained unchanged. He knew he might have been discovered. He didn't make any rash moves, but quietly waited for the other party's next action.
Soon, a light suddenly appeared in a corner of the room, and a figure gradually emerged. It was a middle-aged man dressed in Black Robe, his face obscured, his entire body shrouded in darkness.
"No need to look anymore, no need to investigate, you won't find it," the middle-aged man said coldly, his voice filled with disdain and mockery.
Ye Jing frowned!
It seems I've actually found a clue this time!
However, their purpose has likely been discovered by the other party!
He didn't act rashly, but asked in a deep voice, "Who are you? What is your relationship with the missing disciples of the Blazing Fire Sect?"
The middle-aged man smiled slightly and said, "Who I am is not important. What's important is that I know what you're looking for."
Ye Jing frowned. What the other party had brought here was not their real body, but merely a projection!
No wonder I didn't sense any warning when the other party appeared!
"You're looking for our headquarters, aren't you?" the middle-aged man continued.
Ye Jing's heart skipped a beat. It seemed his plan had been completely exposed. He frowned and said, "That's right, I wanted to find out if your enemy is also the Heavenly Court. I think we can actually cooperate!"
Ye Jing didn't want to miss this opportunity to communicate with the other side!
The middle-aged man sneered and said, "Cooperation? No, we'll never have a chance to cooperate!"
"How will you know there's no chance if you don't even try?" Ye Jing frowned and continued to ask.
"No need to try, you naive child, hahahaha..."
Accompanied by the middle-aged man's laughter, his figure gradually disappeared into the darkness.
Ye Jing's lips curled into a smile.
Innocent?
I'll see who's being naive!
Ye Jing closed his eyes, and the location of the man from before appeared in his mind.
Do you really think that when I talk to you, it's just casual conversation?
Ye Jing opened his eyes, and in a flash, he disappeared from the room.
Following the location in his mind, he quickly chased after the middle-aged man.
He knew he had to act quickly, not because he was worried the other party would escape.
He planted a divine Divine Soul imprint using the Chaos Green Lotus!
The number of things that can be erased from this world is no more than one hand!
This is one of the uses he discovered for the Chaos Green Lotus!
Surprisingly, it works quite well!
Instead, they were worried that the other party's carelessness would alert their superiors and cause them to suspect something amiss, ultimately alerting the enemy!
He walked through street after street, and finally arrived at a bustling street!
Ye Jing knew this place was a famous commercial district in the northern part of the city!
The people living here are all from prominent families and are extremely wealthy!
The most dangerous place is the safest place; these guys are pretty good at disguising themselves.
Ye Jing had naturally checked this place as well, but it was heavily guarded and had many experts!
Therefore, it's impossible for Ye Jing to conduct a thorough inspection of every single household during his inspections!
The middle-aged man arrived at the back gate of an impressive mansion, and after being carefully checked by the mansion's guards...
Only middle-aged men enter the mansion!
Ye Jing crushed a piece of jade pendant; this was Sage Scholar that something was amiss!
Then.
Ye Jing did not act rashly, but hid in the shadows, carefully observing the surrounding situation.
He discovered that the mansion was heavily guarded, and even at the back gate, everyone entering and leaving underwent rigorous checks.
It seems that the owner here holds an extraordinary position, and is very likely the core of the mysterious organization.
Ye Jing circled around to the main gate; he wanted to see whose residence this was!
When Ye Jing saw the plaque hanging high above, he was still stunned for a moment!
The words "City Lord's Mansion" were boldly written on it!
Ye Jing took a deep breath; this was something he hadn't expected!
The mysterious organization is actually colluding with the City Lord's Mansion!
Could this be bait thrown out by the Heavenly Court, enough to lure the Sage Scholar and his companions to their doorstep?
No, probably not.
If the Heavenly Court wanted to intervene, it wouldn't need to go through all this trouble!
If that's really the case, Heavenly Court's methods are just a waste of time and energy!
Ye Jing shook his head, rejecting his own idea.
But he still decided to be cautious!
He wanted to tell the Sage Scholar about this situation and then discuss the next steps.
He turned to leave, but hadn't gone far when he suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis!
The azure sky suddenly turned grayish-purple, and everyone around vanished!
It was as if Ye Jing was the only person in the world!
"Bite!"
Within his Divine Soul, the Chaos Green Lotus swayed slightly, and the scene before Ye Jing's eyes shattered like a mirror!
Before Ye Jing, a pale blue longsword suddenly appeared!
Ye Jing retreated rapidly, quickly dodging the sword strike!
"Oh? How did you break free? Your Divine Soul strength is that high?"
A figure slowly emerged from the shadows, tall and slender, very young, wearing a blue robe, and his long sword flew back into his hand, displaying the demeanor of a sword immortal!
Ye Jing frowned; he hadn't expected the other party to actually make a move on the street!
"Don't worry, there's a barrier here, outsiders can't see what's going on in this alley!" The figure seemed to see through Ye Jing's doubts and explained.
"Who are you?" Ye Jing asked in a deep voice, while simultaneously channeling his Spiritual Qi, ready for battle at any moment!
The opponent is a powerful expert at the Divine Realm Seventh Heaven!
The man smiled slightly and said, "Who am I? I'd like to ask you who you are, why you've been looking for us, and why you've been following us!"
Ye Jing smiled and said without batting an eye:
"I am close friends with that disciple of the Blazing Fire Sect. He disappeared without a trace, so naturally I have to investigate."
