Chapter 322: Let Me Buy You Noodles
In the courtyard, both Lu Heng and Jiu Mie appeared exhausted and powerless.
But when they met again and saw that each other was safe, they both breathed a sigh of relief.
When they last parted, Lu Heng had to go to the Green Hell Cave to infiltrate the demons and gather intelligence, while Jiu Mie had to search for the mysterious woman Lian Cangqing and try to deal with the ancient demon there.
None of them were dangerous incidents that could be taken lightly.
Especially after Lu Heng witnessed the terror of Lian Cangqing, he had been worried about Jiu Mie. So, after leaving the Green Hell Cave, Lu Heng used the pre-agreed method to summon Jiu Mie back and asked him to temporarily give up on finding Lian Cangqing.
However, Lu Heng didn't expect Jiu Mie to arrive in Yanjing City so late.
After a while, the two who had regained some strength finally sat up straight. Jiu Mie also got up from the ground and sat back in his original position.
Lu Heng asked, "Why did my good friend come so late? Did something unexpected happen on the way?"
Jiu Mie sighed and said, "It wasn't exactly unexpected, but during the process of searching for the woman in red, I accidentally stumbled upon a group of people who had willingly fallen into depravity. It took some extra time to clean up the chase."
"What's happened to you, my friend? You set up such a mysterious and strange formation, and then urgently summon me back… Is it possible that the demon in the Green Hell Cave is about to attack Yanjing City?"
Jiu Mie made a conjecture based on the situation of the game.
Lu Heng nodded and said, "As my friend said, the demon in the Green Hell Cave is going to attack Yanjing City…"
As he spoke, Lu Heng took the opportunity to detail his experiences on his journey to the Floating Jade Mountain, including Lian Cangqing's strange martial arts and the Lord of All Demons' evil plan, to Jiu Mie.
Jiu Mie was stunned to hear this and said, "Is the woman so terrifying? Can she take lives from a distance? Even my friend couldn't defend against her? Fortunately, the old ascetic cultivator didn't find her, or he would have died on the spot, wouldn't he?"
Lu Heng laughed and said, "Don't worry, my friend. Although Lian Cangqing's palm technique is tricky, there is a way to crack it. In two days, at the appearance of the Dragon Soul, this woman will still need you to deal with her. You can't let others show off and take away your own glory."
Lu Heng's words widened Jiu Mie's eyes, and he said, "In two days? I'll deal with this Lian Cangqing? My friend, are you trying to make me die faster?"
Lu Heng laughed and said, "It's okay. If my friend dies, I won't live alone either. In two days, when the demons gather and the Dragon Soul appears, the Lord of All Demons' plan will be obstructed and he won't be able to leave so easily. It will definitely be a protracted battle."
"Once a protracted battle occurs, Dragon Soul will definitely attract all the fiends and demons in the Fire Pass Country, including the demon shadow that our friend encountered before."
"That guy set a trap using two children as bait to harm me. He can't pretend to be dead forever. Now that the Dragon Soul has appeared, he definitely can't resist attacking me."
.
"Although I don't know what means he has prepared, it must be powerful. So, compared to my friend, actually my probability of dying is even greater."
Lu Heng's words were quite self-pitying.
But Jiu Mie sneered and didn't buy into Lu Heng's words.
"If my friend didn't have a plan, with your cautious and calculating personality, always waiting to make your move, how could you sit here with me and chat peacefully? You must be busy going out to find someone to help us."
"Sitting steadily on top is clearly a well-planned move, waiting for the demon shadow to come and seek its own death. There is no danger."
Jiu Mie said, "But if you want me to deal with Lian Cangqing, you have to treat me to the most popular restaurant in Yanjing City. The Tian Wei Tower has a great reputation, but sadly it is too expensive. Old ascetic cultivators, such as myself, can only watch and dare not even enter the door."
After Jiu Mie finished speaking, he saw Lu Heng looking worried and couldn't help but doubtfully ask, "Don't tell me you can't even afford to eat at Tian Wei Tower, my friend?"
Lu Heng spread his hands and said helplessly, "I am a poor man with nothing to offer… I can't afford to eat at Tian Wei Tower, but what about the noodle stand at the end of the street?"
"When I passed by just now, I sniffed and thought it smelled very good. The taste should be great."
After Lu Heng finished speaking, Jiu Mie gave him a fierce glare and said, "I came from a long way to help you, and you want to treat me to a roadside stand… Do you have no conscience? No! It has to be Tian Wei Tower. Without a meal at Tian Wei Tower, this matter cannot be resolved."
Jiu Mie kept shouting non-stop.
So Lu Heng could only sigh helplessly and take out his only purse, weighing it as he said,
"This was given to me by Xiao Ai before she left… oh well… let's go friend, we're going to eat at Tian Wei Tower!"
Lu Heng said generously, "Even if Xiao Ai came back today, we cannot skimp on this money!"
Jiu Mie looked at him suspiciously and said, "Is this really enough to eat at Tian Wei Tower?"
Full of confidence, Lu Heng said, "This is all of Hanyu Mountain's wealth. Xiao Ai said it would be enough for a family of five to eat and drink for three years. Even if we can't have a sumptuous meal at Tian Wei Tower, we will at least be able to have one or two dishes."
Holding the wallet, Lu Heng took the lead and walked towards the door.
A wolf and a monk walked through the street and soon arrived at the hottest and finest restaurant in Yanjing City.
However, as soon as they entered the door, they heard from afar that the shopkeeper was checking out for a table of customers.
Upon hearing the price, Jiu Mie's forehead suddenly twitched and he looked at Lu Heng.
Lu Heng lowered his head and weighed the amount of money in his sleeve, then turned around on the spot.
"Let's just go eat at a food stall on the roadside."
As soon as Lu Heng finished speaking, a piercing scream suddenly came from the depths of Tian Wei Tower, where the sound of silk and bamboo was floating.
Then a figure flew out and collided with Lu Heng, who was standing by the door.
Upon seeing this scene, Lu Heng furrowed his eyebrows slightly and calmly avoided the flying figure.
Meanwhile, in the direction where the figure was flying, a rather large conflict had broken out.
Amidst the outbreak of spiritual energy, there was a familiar voice to Lu Heng's ear, coldly rebuking.
"You treacherous and heartless wretch, unworthy of living in this world!"
Immediately thereafter, a series of screams as well as angry and frightened shouting ensued.
"How dare you commit murder in the city of Yanjing! How dare you commit murder in the city of Yanjing!"
Upon hearing the sound, Jiu Mie couldn't help but turn to glance at Lu Heng, raising an eyebrow slightly.
"Do you know him?"
Lu Heng sighed and said, "That person who spoke first was Gu Yin, whose master's physical body was taken by force…"
At the entrance, Lu Heng and Jiu Mie's figures faded at the same time and instantly disappeared from the perception of ordinary people.
They stood at the doorway, simultaneously looking at the scene inside the Tian Wei Tower.
Jiu Mie furrowed his brows and said.
"He's ruthless with his actions and seems to have some intentions of eliminating evil completely. We just don't know who he's conflicting with and who he really is… Coming to Tian Wei Tower to eat, it's clear that he has some connections and knowledge."
