Chapter 242 I Didn't Say That

In the capital city, it was drizzling in the sky, and white steam was rising from the ground. The streets were sparsely populated, and there were not many vendors in sight, making them look empty.

In the hazy air, a carriage stopped slowly at the back door of Nuanxiang Pavilion. At this time, Nuanxiang Pavilion returned to calm after a busy night.

But a man wearing a mask has been waiting under the eaves at the back door. It wasn't until the carriage stopped that he stepped forward and said, "Tianji, why are you in such a hurry? I just received the letter last night and you arrived this morning."

"Something happened in Bianzhou." Tianji stepped out of the carriage, sighed, and asked, "Has the deputy sect leader seen it?"

"I've seen it." Yao Guang nodded.

Tianji's voice sounded a little tired, and she raised her hand and said, "Let's go."

The two of them entered the door side by side, walked along the familiar road, and headed to the top floor.

In the room, Fu Guang seemed to have just woken up, leaning on the low table, looking a little listless.

"Deputy Sect Leader." The two closed the door and said in unison.

Fuguang nodded, "I have read your letter. Although you are a little more radical, you are still forced to do so. If you want to blame it, you can only blame Yu Heng for being careless."

"It's just that we didn't succeed, and it had a great impact on the follow-up. Before the Heaven-Mending Baojing showed up, we had already lost our troops. We were really at a loss..."

Tianji sat down and said nothing. He knew that he was indeed a little more aggressive this time, but he didn't think he was wrong.

From the day Yuheng was recognized, Zhao had to die. If Zhao is allowed to live, he can recruit Jin Yiwei again. Not to mention taking advantage of chaos and getting their hands on the Heaven-Mending Book, even if they get out of Bianzhou alive, they are just wishful thinking.

He didn't think that just these people could hide from thousands of pairs of eyes under Jin Yiwei Mountain.

Tianji remained silent, but Yaoguang spoke up, "What should we do next, stay in Bianzhou or withdraw first? I think..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Fuguang waving his hand, "Stay in Bianzhou, just avoid that Jin Yiwei in the future."

Avoid it? Tianji and Yaoguang smiled contemptuously at the same time. They are just a small second-grade person. Without those two little masters around them, they are nothing.

Why should we avoid it?

Fuguang seemed to have penetrated the hearts of both of them, shook his head and said, "Do you really think that Jin Yiwei will be a simple person?"

"Oh?" The two of them raised their heads in confusion and asked in unison: "Is there anything more complicated?"

When they said this, both of them looked extremely relaxed and even laughed. But when Fuguang finished speaking, the expressions on their faces suddenly changed dramatically.

Only Fuguang's calm voice was heard, "After you took action, Lu Wenyu went to Bianzhou."

"Wha...what?"

Seeing that the two of them didn't believe it, Fuguang dropped another bombshell, "As far as I know, Lu Wenyu was responsible for several recent battles between great masters in the world. Do you still think it's easy?"

Just after being assassinated, Lu Wenyu appeared in Bianzhou. Even a fool can understand it. It contains more or less a platform for his family, which is full of warning and deterrence.

"Do you know why I decided to stay in Bianzhou and why I asked you to avoid me?" Fuguang's tone was a little calm and proud, as if he was strategizing and defeating the counselors thousands of miles away.

"Be taught, be taught!" the two said while cupping their hands.

They are not fools, they can think clearly. Lu Wenyu did not thoroughly investigate the assassination for so many days, but instead frequently fought against the great masters in the world.

The explanation is just a deterrent and has no intention of being aggressive. On the contrary, after Lu Wenyu took action, he could guarantee to the greatest extent that the Grand Master would not appear in Jiangnan again.

In other words, they have both lost and gained. Although you will be timid in the future and must act more cautiously, your chances of obtaining the Heaven-Mending Treasure Sutra will also be greatly increased.

Thinking of this, the two of them felt happy and couldn't help laughing.

"In that case, Lu Wenyu helped us a lot invisibly."

"You can indeed say that." Fuguang agreed.

He also smiled, tapped the low table with his fingers and said: "After you return to Bianzhou, there is no need to pay attention to the Jin Yiwei. Since Yu Heng is dead, then take care of the aftermath and don't let him find out anything. Just focus on the Heaven-Building Scripture first.”

"Understood." Tianji nodded in response.

After hearing what he said, Fuguang also nodded. But he was still worried, so he warned: "Be sure to think twice before making this trip. Remember, don't push forward. You must wait until you have enough opportunities before you plot it. And you must hide your traces and don't eat again because of carelessness." What a loss!”

Tianji nodded cautiously and fell silent.

Unfortunately, what they didn't expect was that Zhao didn't find out who it was at all. He just sensed murderous intent. The rest was all their own guesses.

But whether he discovered it was Yu Heng or not is no longer important. The important thing is that they believe it, and that's enough.

In the inn room, Zhao was smiling, which made Suzaku's right eyelid jump uncontrollably.

No, are you really treating me like a beast? Even though her cultivation level was higher than that of Zhao Jiu, she couldn't help but panic at this time, and she even trembled a little when she spoke.

"Old...Old Jiu, what are you looking at me for?"

"It's okay." Zhao sat down with a smile on his face, "Just take a look, haha, it's okay..."

Suzaku hurriedly looked away and couldn't help cursing in his heart: I believe you, you are a ghost, your eyes are so scary.

At this time, the man with his head lowered slowly asked: "I have told you everything I know, can you let me go?"

But Zhao Jue ignored him and took a sip of tea. Then he turned his eyes to him and asked, "When did I say I would let you go? Don't frame a good person. I never said such a thing."

"You!" The man was emotional, struggling with his hands and feet, staring at Zhao Jue angrily.

"You don't keep your word! I said everything, no lies!"

Zhao Jue waved his hands, looking like a profiteer. He said, "Whether it is true or false, how can we know now? In business, you must pay the money and deliver the goods. How can you settle the balance with just a few words?"

"Don't you think so?"

The man was deflated and stared at Zhao Jue. Because he was tied up and his acupoints were sealed, he could only grit his teeth and say, "Are all Jinyiwei people like you? What's the benefit of lying to you?"

"Not all of them..." Zhao Jue didn't care about his provocation at all and drank tea leisurely.

After a cup of tea was finished, Zhao Jue pulled Zhuque out, leaving Li Yizheng and Jiang Qianhu staring at each other in the room.

"What are you doing? Don't you know that men and women should not touch each other?" Zhuque flicked his sleeves and distanced himself from Zhao Jue.

"You have to do me a favor."

Zhuque turned away and said angrily: "No! I help you every day, but you really treat me like a donkey? You have no shame, really."

But Zhao Jue was a shameless person. He grabbed her sleeve and persuaded her: "Don't worry, this is not a big deal. Just arrest someone and protect my safety!"

"For the peerless and martial arts Zhuque, it is not a small matter?"
