CHAPTER FORTY-THREE See you again, King Gen.
Lu Yi and Jin Jian were still using the previous time to advertise how they caught He Lan Wuque. They spread the word that He Lan Wuque had already escaped due to their unfavorable guarding.
As such, a huge uproar was once again stirred up in the martial arts world. However, there were also some people who believed that Lu Yi had been harassed by countless challenges and harassment for the past few days, which was the reason why they had sent out such a message. Therefore, there were still many people who came forward to probe, and even tried to seize the opportunity from the shadows.
As the sun was setting, while Jin Jian and Lu Yi were on their way, they suddenly felt hunger. They stopped the carriage and went to a guesthouse to sleep.
The two discussed at the table what to do about the prison cart.
Jin Jian said, ”Having a leg strength is better than the two of us walking. I see that in the future, you can sit in the car while I drive.”
Lu Yi said, ”What are you sitting on? That's a prison cart. I'm not sitting on it, it's bad luck.”
Jin Jian said, ”Then what do you think we should do?”
Lu Yi said, ”The vehicles and the Water Dividing Beasts are all sold. The two of us will walk to the Jellyfish clan.”
Jin Jian said, ”How slow is that?”
Lu Yi said, ”You just have to slow down.”
Jin Jian said, ”Why?”
Lu Yi blushed as she said, ”Fool, have you ever seen a man and a woman walking together? They seem to think they're too slow.”
Jin Jian didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He said, ”Lu Yi, we're going to do some proper business. It's related to Senior Ying's death and He Lan Wuque's innocence. How could you think of those things?”
Lu Yi took a bite of the dish and chewed on it, but didn't say anything.
Jin Jian said, ”Why don't you drive?”
Lu Yi said, ”No, I'm not.” My arms are sore. ”
Jin Jian said, ”Then what do we do?”
Lu Yi said, ”Let's sell our cars and ride on the same water splitting beast.”
Jin Jian said, ”That water dividing beast has already pulled a cart for so many days. Can it really carry two of us all at once?”
Lu Yi said, ”What a fool.”
Jin Jian said, ”Let's use that car to exchange for a new water beast.”
Thus, the two ordered the shop owner to sell the carriage, change the money, and buy a new water dividing beast. The two of them had dinner at the inn, rested for the night, and got up early the next morning to travel.
The two of them had the Water Dividing Beast and their speed was fast. In just a few days, they had already arrived at the Jellyfish clan's territory.
The two of them asked several restaurants, all of them were already full, because the Jellyfish clan was the most noble clan in Zhong Hai, the death of their Patriarch was even more important, they sent out obituaries, all of the families came to offer their condolences, and with the addition of Helian Wuque and the mayfly clan coming out again, the various clan leaders all wanted to use this opportunity to gather their thoughts, exchange views, and formulate a plan to deal with Helian Wuque and the Mayfly clan.
Therefore, all the clan leaders brought the proud juniors from their clan with them and rushed over to Young Master Ying Kong. Because the date was still too early, they couldn't enter the Jellyfish clan to disturb them, so they stayed outside in the tavern.
After searching for half a day, Jin Jian and Lu Yi finally found a place to stay in a dilapidated abandoned store. The room was small and dimly lit, but it costed a hundred dollars to stay one night. After the two of them paid, Jin Jian went to the various inn to check if his master had arrived. Lu Yi was also persuaded to go find her father.
Lu Yi asked, ”What if we find it?”
Jin Jian said, ”Then we don't need to live in this place anymore. The house is not good, and the money is also expensive.”
Lu Yi said, ”Then where should we live?”
Jin Jian said, ”It's fine wherever you live.”
Lu Yi turned her head and said, ”How did you know your master would give you an empty seat?”
Jin Jian was stunned. ”What you said was really a problem.”
Lu Yi said, ”Besides, what if my father doesn't allow me to follow you?”
Jin Jian said, ”But I have to report this information to my master as soon as possible. Why don't we go find my master and ignore your father? ”
Lu Yi glared at him. ”What do you mean? Are you saying you're going to find your master, not my father?”
Jin Jian said, ”Aren't you afraid that your father won't let us be together?”
Lu Yi said, ”I can see that your Master is quite helpless as well!”
Jin Jian said, ”That won't be the case. My master is very open-minded, and has always wanted our two races to be on good terms with each other. Since he dotes on me so much, he won't disagree.”
Lu Yi turned around and looked at him. ”Tell me, what if your master disagrees with us being together?”
Jin Jian said, ”My master will not disagree.”
Lu Yi said, ”What I meant was' just in case '!”
Jin Jian said, ”If it's a case, then let's wait until it's a case.”
Lu Yi panicked, ”What do you mean by just waiting for what happens?” ”Jin Jian, what exactly do you think of our relationship?”
Jin Jian said, ”How, how do you want me to choose?”
Lu Yi said, ”For you, I won't listen to my father. Can't you fight back against your master for me?”
Jin Jian said, ”But, I, I, my master …”
Lu Yi snorted, ”You don't care about me at all!”
Jin Jian hurriedly said, ”I, why would I not care about you? I …”
Jin Jian was anxious to express his thoughts, but he was momentarily at a loss for words. Lu Yi was sulking and the two of them were depressed, so they didn't say anything for the whole night.
The next day, Jin Jian woke up early and strolled aimlessly. While he was walking, a voice suddenly called out from behind him. ”Little Scissor!”
Jin Jian was stunned. ”Senior Sister?” She hastily turned her head to look, only to see Ying Ju skipping over.
Jin Jian said, ”Senior Sister.”
Ying Duoduo glanced over his body, and after confirming that he was fine, he looked into his eyes and said: ”How are you, are you hurt?”
Jin Jian said, ”No, why?”
Ji Ying sighed, and said: ”Ever since the news of Uncle Ying's death reached the Arctic Icecap, my father and mother were always worried about you. Even Uncle Ying's powerful martial arts had met with misfortune, not to mention you. Oh by the way, you were with Uncle Ying the whole time, why are you so fine after Uncle Ying died? ”What about Green Yi from the Strigoi race?”
Jin Jian suddenly remembered that it was more important to inform his master of what he had seen. He hurriedly asked, ”Master, are all of them here?”
Ju Dao Ying nodded and said, ”That's right!”
Jin Jian asked, ”Where do they live?”
Ji Dao Ying said: ”It's at the east side of the city inn, not far from here.”
Jin Jian said, ”I have something important to report to Master. Take me to see Master first.”
Ji Dao Ying responded, then took Jin Jian to the east side inn, where they met Ji Dao Gen.
Seeing that Jin Jian was safe and sound, King Zigong was finally able to relax and asked about the details of the death of Young Master Ying Kong.
Jin Jian said that he wanted to invite his master to a secret room for a detailed discussion.
The death of Ying Kong and the fact that he was involved with He Lan Wuque was probably something that Jin Jian should not be able to hear from too many people.
Thinking up to this point, Jidong King looked left and right to see his wife, Dash's daughter, Ying Ji, with a few trusted disciples by her side. He then had Ying Ji lead a few disciples out to the dining hall for dinner, leaving Dash to listen to Jin Jian's report together with him.
