Sky Surveying Demon Hunt

Chapter 415 The Darkness Under the Lights

City Lord's Mansion.

Lin Ji fulfilled his wish to meet Qi Ducheng who was seriously injured last night.

At this time, Qi Ducheng's complexion was pale, and the blood on his body was vain.

His abdomen was wrapped in bandages, and half of his upper body was naked, but he seemed to have aged a lot overnight.

Lin Ji dragged Geng Hu's body into the conference hall, just glanced at him, then curled his lips and said, "It's a pity, even if it is cured, it will inevitably lead to a decline in realm."

There is not only Qi Ducheng in the hall, but also Qi Ning.

Qi Ning recognized Lin Ji, and when he heard Lin Ji taunting his father like this, his face suddenly became extremely ugly.

On the contrary, Qi Ducheng was not angry.

"Master Lin from Tiansi Division wants to see me, what's your business?" Qi Ducheng asked, his eyes fell on Geng Hu's body again, "Isn't this Brother Geng from Sunset Gate? How did Brother Geng offend Master Lin?"

"He committed suicide." Lin Ji found a place to sit down, and threw the body into the hall casually.

"Lei Yunzhu's whereabouts are unknown, so Lin is naturally coveted. After several inquiries, he suspected that the matter was related to this brother Geng Hu, so he secretly followed him out of the city."

"After following him out of the city, Mr. Lin deliberately let him go a little farther, and blocked his way by coming later, trying to press Lei Yunzhu's whereabouts."

Lin Ji simply told the story before and after.

"If it wasn't for the evil intentions, how could this person commit suicide and blame Lin? He must know the whereabouts of Lei Yunzhu, and at this moment, Lei Yunzhu has already been sent out of the city."

After saying these words, Lin Ji narrowed his eyes slightly to assess Qi Ducheng's reaction.

As a result, Qi Ducheng was also looking at him.

"Master Lin just came to say this? Lei Yunzhu is not here, even if there is a clue, it is useless, let alone a clue that has been broken."

"Lin came here to know who this Geng Hu is most likely to conspire with? Lin doesn't know much about Fanyun City. After thinking about it, it's more convenient to ask the city lord face to face."

As soon as these words came out, Qi Ning who was at the side suddenly got up.

"My lord Lin, my father is already seriously injured. You are so shameless coming to the door to inquire and openly coveting my Qi family's treasure. You really don't take me seriously in Fanyun City."

Lin Ji sun-baked.

"The Qi family has disappeared after entering Taoism, and they can't stop Fanyun City with just a few day trips." Lin Ji said with a low smile, "Even your father doesn't dare to put on airs, where do you have the courage?"

After the words fell, Lin Ji looked at Qi Ducheng again.

"City Master Qi, it's true that Lin covets Thunder Cloud Beads, but if Lin wins the treasure, he must have the Qi family's help in his heart."

"You want to use the so-called favors in exchange for the help of my Qi family? Master Lin is taking too much face, but that is Lei Yunzhu!"

"It's just another clue."

Qi Ducheng shook his head, stood up and said, "If there is nothing else, Qi will be recuperating."

Hearing this, Lin Ji's eyes were somewhat disappointed.

"Ms. Lin is bothering you."

After leaving the City Lord's Mansion, Lin Ji let out a long sigh, and finally put aside the matter of Lei Yunzhu completely.

Geng Hu clearly knew the whereabouts of Lei Yunzhu, but broke into the city and committed suicide. It was clearly a bait and a cover.

When Geng Hu left the city, the sound of the city gate on the other side was obviously also a bait.

Lei Yunzhu must have been conspired by many people.

Thinking about it, when he left the city, Lei Yunzhu might have been sent somewhere.

If he could get some clues from the City Lord's Mansion, Lin Ji might still have a chance to get in touch with Lei Yunzhu.

But since the Qi family is unwilling to help, even if Lin Ji wastes no time in finding clues, it may be too late.

Slowly step by step.

"There is no time in life to force it, that's the only way to go."

Although he had given up in his heart, Lin Ji still came to the north of the city again, to the station of Guanyun Mountain in the north of the city.

This time, he didn't break in quietly, but came to the door.

After knocking on the door, it was a little boy who opened the door.

"Masters are meeting guests." The little boy responded, "Senior, please wait a moment."

Lin Ji naturally doesn't care.

After a while, several monks came out of the house, glanced at Lin Ji casually, and then walked away.

Blind Ke followed the guests off and also came to the door.

"Blind Ke, who are those people?" Lin Ji asked casually.

"Mr. Lin is here." Blind Ke bowed and saluted, "Those guys are fellows of Luosun Gate, and they have some kind of friendship with the old man, this time they came to say goodbye."

"Sunset Gate?" Lin Ji's expression froze, and he took a deep look at Blind Ke.

"Why did Mr. Lin come here?" Blind Ke asked again.

"It's nothing, Lei Yunzhu couldn't find his whereabouts, so he gave up and came here to tell you." Lin Ji said.

Blind Ke was noncommittal.

Originally, Lin Ji really just came to say hello.

But at this time he had another whim.

"Just now, a monk was stopped outside the city. That person was related to the matter of Lei Yunzhu. Originally, Lin had already taken him down, but someone disrupted the situation. After that person cut himself off, Yuanshen escaped."

Hearing this, Blind Ke shook his head and said, "It's really a pity."

"It's nothing to be sorry about. It's my luck to lose my life."

Lin Ji didn't enter the door either, but walked outside instead.

While walking, he smiled and said, "By the way, that person is also from the Sunset Gate."

After the words fell, Lin Ji's figure had gradually drifted away, and disappeared into the crowd in the blink of an eye.

Blind Ke seemed to hear Lin Ji's laughter, whether it was ridicule or something else, he couldn't tell.

After all, he didn't say anything, and after watching Lin Ji leave with blind eyes, he turned around and went back to the house.

"Tong'er, I'm so good at guarding the door."

"understood."

In a blink of an eye, three days passed.

The matter of Lei Yunzhu gradually subsided, and the closure of the city lord's mansion had already existed in name only the next day.

All sects saw the weakness of the City Lord's Mansion, and they left whenever they wanted.

In the hotel room.

"Give up just like that?" Bei Shuang asked with a half-smile.

Lin Ji was depressed for three days after he came back, and after Beishuang asked why, he also mocked him for three days.

"I haven't given up yet." Lin Ji shook his head.

"But you haven't moved around in the inn for three days. Could it be that you expect Lei Yunzhu to fly to you?" Bei Shuang was puzzled.

"Lei Yunzhu is still in the city." Lin Ji said, "I am not the one who is worried now."

Lin Ji poured himself a cup of tea, and moved slowly.

"Didn't you notice that there are a lot fewer monks in the city these days?" Lin Ji smiled a little, "They all ran outside the city to rob the way, as long as you are out of the city, no matter what your status is, they will attack in groups In short, search for treasure."

"Some went to Leiyunzhu, and some went to fish in troubled waters to make a fortune."

While Lin Ji was talking, what he was thinking about was the group of blind Ke from Guanyun Mountain.

"The so-called darkness under the lamp, that's what it is."
