Chapter 80: Conspiracy!

"The Black Vatican!"

In the shadows, Tang Yue spoke with absolute certainty.

"The Black Vatican?" Lin Yu asked, puzzled. "What are they doing here? We have no grudge against them. Could they be the ones causing this commotion?"

"I don't know either, but I recognized them both." Tang Yue said, revealing herself and handing her phone to Lin Yu.

Lin Yu turned his head and realized that Tang Yue was squatting on that tree branch.

Her chest rested on her knees, her red bodysuit facing Lin Yu, and red straps could be seen through the black stockings, presumably for holding the stockings up.

Looking away, Lin Yu took the phone she handed him and started checking it.

Above are two arrest warrants.

Upon seeing the wanted poster, Lin Yu's expression turned grim.

Both of them were blue-clad butlers.

One of them was a high-level mage, specializing in earth magic.

"What do we do now? Should we leave? Or should I send Leng Qing to ask for help?"

Seeing Lin Yu's grim expression, Tang Yue asked him a question.

Lin Yu frowned and thought for a moment. "No need. That would alert them, and perhaps their target isn't us."

"We'll do our own thing first, and if they don't take the initiative, we'll leave it to them."

"Let's see what their purpose is in coming here. If they're still here by the time we leave, then we'll notify the judges."

Tang Yue frowned, looking somewhat conflicted. "My shadow magic is a secondary skill, so I might not be able to get close enough to investigate a high-level mage."

Hearing Tang Yue's concerns, Lin Yu's lips curled up slightly. "You don't need to investigate. Just continue to be at odds with me like we just had a fight. I have a way of finding out where they are."

"We're only safe when they feel we're not a threat."

Tang Yue nodded thoughtfully, her gaze falling on Lin Yu. "You really don't seem like someone who's only eighteen or nineteen years old."

Lin Yu raised his hand and waved it off, "I'm a 'Hunter Master,' you know!"

"Go and rest, I'll keep watch."

After Tang Yue left, Lin Yu began to meditate.

He could already sense that his fire element had reached the threshold of a higher level.

However, there was no way to break through.

To advance from the intermediate to the advanced level, unless one has a deep foundation for breakthrough, one needs the immense power provided by the 'Star River Vein' to achieve it.

For Lin Yu, a Star River Vein worth 100 million is a bit of a luxury.

If he could break through on his own, he would still prefer to do so.

As night deepened, a bright moon hung high in the night sky.

Lin Yu also emerged from his meditative state.

"Little Blue?"

As the voice faded, Xiao Lan emerged from behind Lin Yu, her scales gleaming with an unusual luster under the moonlight.

"How's it going? Did you notice anything unusual about those two?"

Little Blue nodded.

However, he appeared indifferent, even somewhat disdainful.

Lin Yu was about to continue asking questions.

The tents in the open space suddenly opened with a whoosh.

Bai Suwei, dressed in her pajamas, ran out in a panic, without even putting on her shoes.

She looked around and, upon seeing Lin Yu, cried out anxiously, "I dreamt about it again! I can feel its direction!"

Lin Yu was overjoyed and didn't ask Xiao Lan about the two Black Vatican members. He jumped down from the tree.

Tang Yue then came out of the tent.

She was also wearing a white nightgown, just like Bai Suwei's, so it must have been Bai Suwei's.

However, Bai Suwei is petite, and the pajamas were a bit tight on Tang Yue.

The moonlight shone through, and Lin Yu could clearly see Tang Yue's curves through the thin fabric of her clothes.

"Okay, you two hurry up and change your clothes. We'll set off after you're done!" Lin Yu said, turning his gaze away as he walked over to the two women.

The two women nodded and went into the tent.

The lights were turned on inside the tent.

Soon, two shadows were cast onto the tent.

Especially when they crouch down to look for clothes.

Xiao Yingzi Bai Suwei was able to find it by squatting down, but Tang Yue, whether intentionally or unintentionally, didn't squat down but bent over directly in front of the tent.

The light shone on the tent.

"Run!"

Lin Yu glanced at it every now and then, and couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement.

Bai Suwei was the first to run out.

After she came to Lin Yu's side, she caught a glimpse of Tang Yue putting on stockings inside the tent, and her face flushed red.

Lin Yu awkwardly looked away. "I was just spacing out."

Bai Suwei covered her cheeks with her hands, nodded slightly, and did not speak.

The latest novel is first published here!

After Tang Yue came out, Lin Yu dismantled the tent.

More than ten minutes later, the three of them, under the moonlight and following Bai Suwei's instructions, entered the jungle.

three days later.

It is located in the mountains outside the Hangzhou city boundary.

"Deacon Heng, do you think they'll come after us again tonight?"

Under the moonlight, a man asked.

"Definitely."

"This was all planned by the adults; it would be strange if those three naive girls didn't fall for it."

"Deacon Lan, don't be impatient. Now is not the time. We should wait until they are exhausted before we make our move."

The man known as the Eternal Butler raised his hand to adjust his baseball cap and chuckled softly.

"Hehehe, we've been in this wretched place for over ten days, it's normal to be anxious." Deacon Lan chuckled, then a look of admiration appeared on his face. "But the master is indeed amazing, sending us here so early to make arrangements."

"But I'm a little curious, why Hangzhou specifically? Wouldn't it be faster if it were closer to Shanghai?"

Deacon Heng smiled. "The Pearl Magic Association is no pushover. Shanghai is a small place with many experts."

"Hangzhou is a vast city, and the Lingyin Tribunal is short-handed, so study hard."

Deacon Lan sighed softly, "Let's finish this soon. Once it's over, I'll absorb the 'Star River Vein' and break through to a higher level, so I can better serve you, sir."

"Alright, pack your things and leave quickly, they're coming soon."

Upon hearing Steward Heng's words, Steward Lan stopped chatting, quickly took out a dark box, and put a dark object into the box.

They then slung the box over their shoulders and quickly left the area.

After half an hour.

Lin Yu and his two companions arrived in the vicinity.

"No, my connection to it has broken down again."

Bai Suwei spoke, her chest heaving and her breath coming in ragged gasps.

Lin Yu frowned, his expression somewhat unpleasant.

Tang Yue then began searching everywhere.

"Here!" Tang Yue's voice came a moment later.

Hearing her call, Lin Yu led Bai Suwei toward the direction of Tang Yue's voice.

Soon, in a small open space, Lin Yu saw Tang Yue, who also looked unwell.

"Just like the previous two times, there are traces of people having stayed here."

As she spoke, Tang Yue raised her hand and pointed to the fallen leaves on the ground.

Lin Yu looked around.

I feel like something's not quite right.

Is the Black Vatican's two men also after the White Tiger, or do they have some other motive?

If it was for some other purpose, then the fact that these two people appeared in the same locations as Bai Suwei when she lost consciousness is too much of a coincidence, including this time.

If their target is also the White Tiger, then how did they know its location?
