Chapter 40 No Regrets
"However, please rest assured, I will instruct my informants to keep a close eye on the situation. If there is any sign of trouble, I will try to contact you as soon as possible."
Liu Wei took a sip of the wine, feeling a little tipsy, and even spoke in a tired manner.
Lu Jin stood there, his brows drooping, his fists clenched as he felt unwillingness rising up: "Thank you so much, Boss Liu!"
"Hey, that's not the case."
Liu Wei declined and waved his hand. A hint of nostalgia appeared on his thin face. He said politely:
"In the past, I was in danger and surrounded by my enemies. Fortunately, I was helped by Zuo Menchang and escaped the disaster. "
"This favor is unforgettable, and I dare not forget it. Unfortunately, I never had the chance to repay it. I didn't expect that Master Zuo passed away first. It's really a pity."
"Now these little things are not worth mentioning."
Jiang Mo had never thought that the man in front of him would have any relationship with his senior brother. He said in a clear voice: "Then I'll trouble you, Boss Liu."
Liu Wei reached into his arms, took out a piece of letter paper, met Jiang Mo's gaze, and a slight smile of approval appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Master Jiang, I only found out tonight about you and Master Lu destroying the Quanxing stronghold."
"Although I didn't bring any news about Wu Gensheng and Liu Pozi this time;"
"But I don't know...are you interested in other Quanxing masters?"
Lu Jin's expression became serious, and he couldn't help but look forward to the unknown news.
"Who?" Jiang Mo's eyes narrowed and his tone was flat.
"Six Evils. The remaining two who were not killed are all up there."
Liu Wei handed the crumpled letter to Jiang Mo without any hesitation.
Even though he had been in Jianghu for many years, this was the first time he had seen such a domineering person;
According to reports from subordinates, the other party not only forced Quan Xing to hand over the body of their leader, but also killed people all over Quan Xing's stronghold.
Jiang Mo took the note, his eyes as sharp as torches, scanning the key words and sentences and memorizing them in his heart.
"Okay, according to your rules, how much is this information worth?"
Hearing this, Liu Wei quickly declined: "No, really, you don't have to pay me."
"To be honest, one of the demons has some grudges against me. If you can really get rid of these two people, maybe I owe you a favor."
"Thank you very much!" Jiang Mo politely expressed his gratitude.
"Boss Liu, your information has helped us. When this matter is settled, I will bring you a large sum of money to thank you."
Lu Jin immediately expressed his attitude.
"Look at what you said, Master Lu."
As the two were about to say goodbye, Liu Wei suddenly remembered something and blurted out, "By the way, a friend wants to see you. Can I let him know?"
"Convenient." Lu Jin roughly guessed the identity of the person and did not resist.
"okay."
Liu Wei gave a look, and the younger brother beside him immediately understood and blew a loud whistle.
A handsome man in a light brown gown and with black hair hanging down to his shoulders suddenly appeared on the river bank and walked towards them on foot.
"Long time no see, Master."
"Old Zheng"
Lu Jin had a complicated expression, thinking of the blood feud and the unfinished battle with Quan Xing. He clasped his hands over his chest and closed his eyes slightly, obviously not wanting to talk too much with this close friend.
"You are really capable at this late hour. What do you want to see me for?"
Zheng Zibu could sense the impatience in his old friend's words. He said softly, "I am here on the orders of my master and the elders of Shangqing. I would like to ask you to stop."
"The power of Quan Xing is so great that no one sect or school can shake it. If this continues, I'm worried that you will..."
Before he finished speaking, Lu Jin seemed to be stimulated, unable to suppress his anger, and interrupted him to persuade: "It's impossible!" "Wu Gensheng broke into the mountains and killed my master, and there was a demon who hurt my senior brother and uncle;"
"Two of my fellow apprentice brothers who were as close to me as brothers died in Quan Xing's night attack. Now there are six of them lying in bed!"
The more Lu Jin spoke, the angrier he became. His face turned ashen. He grabbed Zheng Zibu's collar with one hand and yelled at him several times:
"I'm telling you, Zheng Zibu."
"It's not your master or your fellow apprentices who died, so of course you can remain a sober outsider!"
"And I will fight to the death with Quan Xing, and I will definitely kill Wu Gensheng and Li Muxuan!"
Seeing his best friend losing control of his emotions, Zheng Zibu felt that the words that were still brewing in his heart were as heavy as a thousand pounds and blocked his throat.
He wanted to persuade her, but he was helpless under the gaze of those angry eyes.
"Can you listen to me for a little longer?"
A hint of self-blame flashed across Zheng Zibu's eyes.
He realized that he seemed to have unknowingly torn the wound of his best friend again. Out of guilt, he reached out and tried to hug Lu Jin's neck, just like they did before when they were drinking and chatting happily.
"Snapped!"
However, what he got in response was a cold wave of the hand.
Lu Jin pushed him away, kept his distance, restrained his emotions, took a deep breath, and said: "This is the grudge between us Sanyi and Quan Xing, don't bother you Shangqing to worry about it."
"If my uncle and I slacked off in our cultivation for many years and ended up dying on the run, I will never regret it."
"Uncle Master, let's go——!"
Seeing him turn and leave, Zheng Zibu became more and more uneasy. He felt that there was an invisible barrier between the two of them.
"Lu Jin, wait!"
Before he finished speaking, on the other side, Jiang Mo and Liu Wei said goodbye. The glances they gave sideways made Zheng Zibu feel as if he had fallen into an icy cave, and his whole body froze.
The pressure emanating from the man in black clothes and long hair was indescribable. It was like a natural disaster. Just a glance and no extra words were needed to force him back.
"call out!!!"
The next moment, Lu Jin and Jiang Mo’s figures flashed, passed the river bank, and disappeared into the vast night.
Zheng Zibu felt a sudden surge of depression in his chest, and he felt lost and sighed helplessly.
"Master Zheng, how can you persuade others like you do?"
Seeing this, Liu Wei stretched his body and drank, jokingly: "This is a blood feud. If you really want to help, then help;"
"If you don't want to help, then don't stop it. Even his father and my old customer couldn't stop him, let alone you."
"Besides, you have known each other for many years, and you are familiar with Master Lu's character. If you say you want to go together, he won't be angry at all. On the contrary, he will remember your kindness for the rest of his life."
Zheng Zibu stepped on the muddy river beach and shook his head bitterly: "Boss Liu, Quan Xing is as dangerous as a dragon pond, and all kinds of evildoers have gathered here. I am just worried about Lao Lu and the Sanyi Sect."
"There's no need for such talk."
Liu Wei smiled calmly: "I, who run a small business in Jianghu, can understand the truth. I don't believe that you Shangqing can't understand it. In the end, you are just waiting and watching, right?"
Faced with those sharp words, Zheng Zibu fell silent for a moment, his brows furrowed, his face hesitant, but he was unwilling to make any more excuses.
"Also, you don't need to worry about Master Lu's safety. My uncle is very brave!"
Liu Wei looked up at the moon, the world was vast, he drank happily, and praised: "The mere Quan Xing, the six evil spirits and three demons, plus many elites, masters and old ghosts, can't stop him!"
"A real man should be like this!"
"Kill one person with one step, and you will feel great after traveling a thousand miles!"
