In Wangyue City, Shanghua Tower.
Seeing Shanghualou again, Xu Feng sighed slightly in his heart. This is the top restaurant in all the major cities of the human race. As expected, it is also the property of Wanbao League.
The banquet prepared by Zhao Leishui was on the third floor. Only big figures of the Xuan League like him were qualified to come to this floor.
Of course, Xu Feng had also been to the third floor of Shanghua Building before, but he himself didn’t care about these empty things.
There were only two people at the table, Xu Feng and Zhao Leishui.
It seems that Zhao Xunbian is very sincere and wants to recruit him.
But Xu Feng knew that this was probably impossible.
After three rounds of drinking, while the two were chatting, Xu Feng asked casually: "Master Zhao, I wonder who in the city commanded the battle on the Blood Grass Plain this time?"
Zhao Leishui clinked glasses with him and said with a smile, "Brother Wang, are you asking about this because you are dissatisfied with this person?"
Zhao Leishui did not answer Xu Feng directly, but asked this instead.
However, Xu Feng did not intend to hide it, and nodded and said, "Yes, if we let this kind of rubbish command the battle, wouldn't our human cultivators die in vain? It is said that after condensing the Green Evil, there will be a chance to meet General Zi Tianqiong. I would like to ask him, what is the point of keeping this rubbish? It's a waste of air!"
Zhao Leishui laughed loudly upon hearing this: "Brother Wang, you are such a straightforward person. Hahahaha, I really like what you said. However, this Feng Yu is not an ordinary cultivator. He is backed by the first-class Xiaoyue Sect. Does Brother Wang know the relationship between Xiaoyue Sect and Wangyue City?"
"Feng Yu? So that's his name." However, Xu Feng was not interested in what he said about the relationship between Xiaoyue Sect and Wangyue City. He just laughed coldly, as if he was really going to report Feng Yu.
Zhao Leishui hurriedly advised: "I understand your feelings, and many cultivators in the city are also quite dissatisfied with him, but do you know why Zi Tianqiong wants to keep him in the Thirteen Guards?"
"Why?" This time, Xu Feng no longer pretended not to hear, but asked curiously.
"The Thirteen Moon Watchers are the thirteen commanders that the Moon Watcher City Commander Zi Tianqiong trusts and favors the most. They hold a high position, but with Feng Yu's qualifications, he cannot hold this position. But you have to know that Feng Yu's aunt, the Third Elder of Xiaoyue Sect's Inner Sect, is Zi Tianqiong's wife."
Zhao Leishui looked at Xu Feng with an expression that said "Now you understand, right?"
Xu Feng knocked on the table: "I see, Brother Zhao means that if I provoke him, not only will I not be able to vent my anger, but I will also get into trouble?"
Zhao Leishui smiled and said, "Brother Wang is smart."
However, Xu Feng wanted to laugh: "I think Brother Zhao is worrying too much."
"Oh?" Zhao Leishui asked in surprise, "What do you think, brother?"
Xu Feng poured a glass of wine for each of them, and then slowly said: "Although I have just arrived in Wangyue City, I know Zi Tianqiong. He is wise and brave, and he is a rare general. How could he appoint people based on personal connections?"
"If this is true, there is only one possibility. General Zi has something to hide."
"If someone can help him replace Feng Yu, he might even be appreciated by General Zi..."
Zhao Leishui opened his mouth and looked at Xu Feng, then showed a look of not knowing whether to laugh or cry: "Brother Wang, you are really... really a wonderful person."
Zhao Leishui shook his head, obviously thinking that Xu Feng was just daydreaming.
Would the dignified Lord of Moon City change his principles for a woman and even let people accuse him of using someone for his own benefit?
Zhao Leishui felt that Zi Tianqiong was most likely such a person.
But I would never do this because of a woman!
"Brother Zhao, you don't believe it?" Seeing his expression, Xu Feng smiled slightly and said softly, "Then let's wait and see."
The topic was brought to an end. The two chatted and laughed for a while, and Xu Feng left early on the pretext of going back to recuperate.
It was not until he left that the mysterious monk who had been wrapped in silver armor outside the box walked in.
"What do you think of him?"
Zhao Leishui asked while eating, it seemed like he was not asking him, but also seemed like he was asking him.
The armor on the silver-armored monk's face disappeared instantly, revealing a face with a gloomy expression.
"We have been planning this for a long time. Are you sure you want to find someone you don't know the whole story with?"
Zhao Leishui gently put down his wine glass.
"What's the point of knowing everything about him? If he is not strong enough or has no courage, what's the point of following us? The time for the Enlightenment Spring to erupt is coming soon. If we still can't confirm the last person, then we will set off directly, but this will greatly increase the danger on the road."
"Also, I got news that the location of the Rebirth Cave has been discovered by the demon tribe. I'm afraid this operation will cause complications, so it would be the safest if this person could join us."
The silver-armored monk sat casually aside, picked up a wine glass and began to drink one cup after another by himself. Zhao Leishui didn't care about this scene.
Because the two of them were not in a subordinate relationship, the reason why he let this person disguise as his guard was because his identity was rather special. If he was seen and discovered, it might cause a riot.
"Then observe and watch for a while."
"Okay, I'll get on with this. Is everyone else here?"
"We're all here. If this operation goes smoothly, we'll be at the peak of the Hedao realm soon. It will be of great help to the opening of the Wasteland in a few years or the battle for the sequence in the alliance next year. This time, we must succeed!" A hint of ruthlessness appeared on Zhao Leishui's face, as if he recalled something bad.
"Don't worry!" Seeing his expression, the silver-armored monk's eyes flashed with fear, and he comforted him, "Brother Zhao, don't worry. This kind of thing can't be rushed. Compared to the significant improvement in my cultivation, I am more concerned about whether I can survive."
The silver-armored monk said calmly.
"Wealth and honor are achieved through risk." Zhao Leishui smiled slightly.
The silver-armored monk snorted and laughed, without making any comment.
......
Xu Feng randomly found an inn in the east of the city, booked a secret room, and went in. When he came out, it was already evening the next day.
"After refining all the demon-level corpses collected on the battlefield this time, I haven't completed the second blood quenching. Now I'm only one line away, but it's already very slow." Although he was happy, Xu Feng still felt a little regretful.
"Originally, each time a demon-level corpse was refined, a bloodline would be added. But in the end, it took three or four corpses to open up a bloodline. It gets harder and harder as time goes on. How many enemies did Senior Human King kill before he succeeded in the five blood quenchings?"
For the first time in his life, he actually had such a feeling.
This feeling is called self-doubt.
But soon, he tore off such distracting thoughts and took a deep breath to calm himself.
"It seems that the seal of memory has loosened recently, otherwise such emotions would not appear."
