Chapter 780 Take a look

"Yes, he is the mortal enemy I told you about earlier." Huang Jing had no intention of hiding anything. After admitting it, he confirmed with Meng Shisan again, "Did he really follow me to the Meng residence? How did he know I came to your place?"

After asking, she snorted and didn't wait for Meng Shisan's answer. She put down the third piece of cake she had eaten halfway, rolled up her sleeves and walked out of the hall: "I'm going to meet him. This time, I'm going to beat him to a pulp!"

He actually dared to look for her and came to the Meng Mansion!

"Stop." Meng Shisan said calmly, successfully stopping Huang Jing from rushing out of the hall, "Come back and sit down."

Huang Jing obediently returned to his seat and sat down: "I can really deal with him, I can do it alone..."

"I believe it, but he didn't come." Meng Shisan motioned Huang Jing to continue eating the cake. When Huang Jing picked up the half-eaten quercetin, she said what she really wanted to say, "He went to the second prince's private residence."

Huang Jing immediately said when he heard the Second Prince: "Li Heng? Didn't a lot of people just die in his private residence...did Lan Zhijin go to pray for the souls to be reborn?"

"I heard that he was invited by the Second Prince. Are you familiar with Lan Zhijin?" Meng Shisan wanted to know more about Lan Zhijin, just as she also wanted to know more about Huang Jing in front of her.

Huang Jing nodded: "We are sworn enemies. Even if we have to fight every time we meet, I have to admit that he and I understand each other."

"tell me the story."

"it is good."

Lan Zhijin, a demon hunter, is twenty years old and the seventeenth generation descendant of the demon hunting Lan family from Datong, Shanxi, one of the five northern provinces. After being chosen as the successor, he shaved his head to become a monk and lived in the Tower of Babel, where all the successive descendants lived.

During this trip, if I encounter any monster along the way, I will kill it as soon as I can.

"He originally entered the capital city to replenish supplies and then continued his travels in Annan. Unexpectedly, he smelled the evil spirit as soon as he reached Wufu Street in Manjiangfang, and then followed it to the gate of the second prince's private residence." Huang Jing said this, picked up the tea bowl and gulped down three big gulps, and then put the tea bowl down and continued, "In order to understand the ins and outs of the matter, he stayed in a small inn nearby. I didn't know he was there before I stayed in the inn, so I ran into him again by chance the next day, and then we fought directly."

"What about you?" When Meng Shisan agreed to take Huang Jing in to stay temporarily in his house, Huang Jing briefly told her about his origins, but now she wanted to know more details.

Huang Jing had long been prepared for Meng Shisan to ask about her origins, so she was not surprised to hear this and told him everything without thinking: "Lan Zhijin is a demon hunter who mainly kills demons, while I am a demon subduer who mainly captures demons. He is the famous Lan Master in Shanxi, and I am the famous Huang Tianshi in Fujian, the 19th generation descendant of the Huang family who are demon subduers in Jianning, Fujian. He lives in his Tongtian Tower, and I live in Qianye Temple. He originally traveled to Annan, but I didn't. I originally went straight to the capital to have fun."

"So..." Meng Shisan continued, "Did you just happen to run into the murder of a hundred guests at the Second Prince's private residence?"

"You can say that." Huang Jing admitted, "Of course, the main reason is that we discovered that there is some demonic energy left. Otherwise, neither I nor he would have stayed in the capital for too long."

Even though she is having fun, she cannot forget her duty as a demon hunter, and she is very sensible about this.

Meng Shisan nodded slightly. The so-called residual demonic energy that Huang Jing mentioned was probably caused by a small flaw in the formation when Old Ma set up the isolation barrier, which allowed a small amount of demonic energy to leak out when Old Ma and Chang'an were killing everyone with their demonic power.

This attracted the attention of Lan Zhijin and Huang Jing. "We are the same age. I heard that when we were born in the same year, his elders and my elders also sighed in their respective families. As for what they sighed about, we both asked, but we still don't know the details." Huang Jing saw that Meng Shisan just nodded and didn't speak, so she continued to talk on her own. She was happy to let Meng Shisan, who took her in, know about her affairs.

"Hearing what you said, why do I feel that the elders of your two families still have some friendship?" Meng Shisan has always been perceptive and immediately grasped the key points of what Huang Jing described about the past when the two were born.

Huang Jing chuckled twice: "I knew you would be able to tell it as soon as you heard it! To be honest, although he and I always fight, we have been fighting since we were young. Even though our two families live more than a thousand miles apart, it does not prevent us from fighting as soon as we meet. But as for the reason why the two elders sighed back then, we are both curious about it. We have also asked about it separately, but unfortunately the elders are too tight-lipped and we didn't find out anything."

At the end of her speech, she looked regretful, as if she had missed out on some profound magic.

"You two have a good relationship?" Meng Shisan heard it. Although the two of them fought, they developed a lot of feelings for each other.

Huang Jing hummed, thinking for a while about how to describe her strange relationship with Lan Zhijin, and then said vaguely: "Friendship is there, but it is also true that every time we fight, we use all our skills."

Shangchun was listening on the side and didn't know how to comment. A monk and a nun, they had been fighting since they were young and had developed feelings for each other. They were said to be sworn enemies, but why did she sound more like childhood sweethearts?

Meng Shisan also felt the same way: "He is currently performing a ritual in the Second Prince's private residence. If you go and take a look, will they start fighting again?"

"Why should I go and see it?" Huang Jing responded after asking, "You want me to go and see it? Why?"

Meng Shisan smiled. She liked smart little girls. "I want to ask you for a favor."

"What's the deal?"

"Help me understand if the Second Prince has any other purpose besides asking Lan Zhijin to enter his private residence to pray for the souls of his retainers."

Huang Jing seemed to understand: "I can help you with this, but... why do you need to know this?"

"To protect myself." Seeing that Huang Jing still looked confused after hearing what she said, Meng Shisan took the initiative to say, "How about I tell you the reason first?"

"Okay!" Huang Jing nodded heavily. She loved listening to stories the most.

After Li Shou learned that Li Heng was performing rituals in his private residence to pray for the souls of his murdered retainers, he instructed Ji Kuan to keep an eye on Li Heng's movements and also asked Meng Renping about Meng Shisan's movements.

Ji Kuan turned around and left Wenhua Hall to arrange matters.

Meng Renping thought for a moment and replied, "Just now Gao Yuan went to the palace gate to get the news, and received the news from Gao Jinlai, saying that Yaoyao had not left the house all day."

Li Shou's heart just settled down when he heard Meng Renping's words, "But, Princess Yan Hua came to the Meng residence today and talked to Yaoyao for a long time. She talked about the officials in the court and the two camps, either devaluing or criticizing them."
