He Zhiqing

"Senior Brother He, how have you been?" Liang Yi greeted Zhiqing and the shopkeeper.

Regardless of whether Zhiqing knew him or not, he had to address him very respectfully first.

"Senior Brother He." Su Youyi stuck her head out from behind Liang Yi. She and He Zhiqing had met once on Mount Dao, but they had never spoken. That time, Fang Zhi had brought Zhiqing with him when he came to find his master. That's right, he and Zhiqing were Fang Zhi's only disciples.

"Uh, Junior Brother Liang? Junior Sister Su?" He Zhiqing was stunned. He did not expect to meet someone he knew here.

Su Youyi, who was behind Liang Yi, nodded and looked at Liang Yi.

"Are you alone with Senior Brother?" Liang Yi's face was filled with a warm smile. Up close, he and Zhiqing were worthy of the words "gentle as jade."

"Could this person's charm be maxed out too?" Liang Yi guessed in his heart.

"Yes, I came here by accident because of some matters. Why are the two of you here?" He Zhiqing said gently. He was very happy to meet someone he knew.

"Sigh, I accepted a commission, but I accidentally encountered some trouble. I originally wanted to give up, but when I saw that Senior Brother was here, I knew that hope had arrived."

"Why don't we talk upstairs first?" Liang Yi explained with a smile and pointed to the second floor with his right hand.

"Alright." He Zhiqing was also a quiet person.

After sitting down, he and Zhiqing looked at Su Youyi, who was sitting next to Liang Yi on the other side of the table, and smiled.

"Junior Sister Su, how has Senior Chen been recently?"

"Master is still the same. It's just that he's been in closed door cultivation recently." Su Youyi was a bit shy. She was not good at talking to strangers to begin with. Previously, when she met with her senior brother, she tried her best to minimize her presence and let her senior brother take charge of the situation.

"Haha, then when Senior Chen comes out of seclusion, my master and Senior Zhou will be in trouble again," He Zhiqing said with a smile. He knew his master's relationship with Senior Chen of the Daoist School and Senior Zhou of the Sword Cleansing Heavenly Lake very well. Every time Senior Chen's cultivation base made a breakthrough, he would "spar" with his master and Senior Zhou.

Although it was called a "spar", it was just a one-sided beating. His master and Senior Zhou were two against one and were even beaten by Senior Chen Hua until they left dejectedly.

Liang Yi and Su Youyi found it funny. Their master was indeed a little naughty.

"Senior Brother He, I won't beat around the bush. This time, I have something to ask of you. If you have any objections after this, I won't say anything." Liang Yi put away his smile and said seriously.

"Junior Brother Liang, you don't have to do this. I'll definitely help you if I can. I just don't know what it is. Can you tell me first?" He Zhiqing waved his hand, indicating that Liang Yi did not have to be so serious.

"It's about the manager of the small bamboo house in Qingyang City."

Liang Yi briefly explained how he had accepted the commission and found out that the person in charge was a fake after coming to Qingyang City. However, he threw the credit of discovering that "Zhang Feng" was a fake to his junior sister. With his strength as a first-realm cultivator, how could he see through the disguise of a fourth-realm cultivator?

"I see. This is really not a small matter." He Zhiqing took a sip of tea and lowered his head to think.

"Senior Brother?" Su Youyi looked at Zhiqing, who seemed to be in a trance.

"Oh, I'm sorry. I just remembered something else." He Zhiqing looked at Su Youyi and Liang Yi apologetically.

"But since you've said it, let me tell you why I'm here."

Liang Yi and Su Youyi sat down excitedly, curious about He Zhiqing's purpose.

He Zhiqing first took a sip of tea to moisten his throat. After checking that no one was paying attention, he said,

"I'm here to investigate a mysterious force. The motive of this force is unknown, but they often mobilize to collect some things, and not through normal means. This time, I happened to encounter them when they attacked a small family."

"This group of people is very powerful. They specialize in using an escape technique and turning into black fog. All my attacks can't hurt them."

When He Zhiqing said this, he took a sip of tea. After all, the enemy clearly could not defeat him, but the other party had used a strange method to escape. As the chief disciple of the Heavenly Circulation Sect, it would be a little embarrassing if word got out.

Liang Yi and Su Youyi looked at each other. A black escape technique? Attacks were ineffective? That was very familiar.

After thinking for a while, Liang Yi decided to tell Zhiqing this information. After all, he still had two missions related to the Spirit Devouring Sect. With one more person to investigate, he might be able to increase his exploration.

"Even Junior Brother Liang was attacked by them? How dare they!" He Zhiqing flew into a rage when he heard what happened to Liang Yi. He knew that Liang Yi was just an ordinary person. Those people actually brought Liang Yi to the periphery of the 100,000-mile mountain. They probably wanted to use someone else to frame the Demon Clan. They were really vicious.

If it was not for Junior Sister Su's relentless pursuit, Senior Chen Hua would definitely be furious if Liang Yi died. The outcome would be unimaginable.

Su Youyi's face was also filled with lingering fear. She really did not dare to imagine the scene of her seeing her senior brother's corpse. She had cultivated her entire life for her senior brother. Now that her senior brother was gone, what motivation did she have to continue?

"Senior Brother He, there's no need to be angry. The matter has already passed, so we still have to pursue and investigate the objectives of these mysterious powers first." Liang Yi consoled.

"That's right. Thank you for your information, Junior Brother Liang. The next time we encounter that strange escape technique, I won't be helpless." He Zhiqing cupped his hands at Liang Yi and said seriously.

"Accidental discovery. It was just an accidental discovery." Liang Yi only said that he only had the rolling pin in his hand as a weapon at that time. He had no choice but to take action.

"Junior Brother Liang has given me such an important piece of information. In that case, I won't hesitate to help you this time," He Zhiqing said with a smile.

"Thank you very much, Senior Brother He. I'll drink tea instead of wine. Here's a toast to you." After Liang Yi poured a new cup for Su Youyi and He Zhiqing, he picked up his teacup and looked at He Zhiqing.

"Okay!" He Zhiqing did not hesitate. He picked up his teacup and said to Liang Yi and Su Youyi, who were serving tea.

The three of them looked at each other and drank the spiritual tea in one gulp.

Before leaving with Zhiqing, Liang Yi had already found out where Zhiqing was staying in Qingyang City. If he needed anything, he could go and find him.

Liang Yi and Su Youyi went to the Wind God Chamber of Commerce in the city and decided to buy a sword first. Liang Yi had already mastered the sword technique and felt that the current situation was a little dangerous. He had to buy a sword to protect himself first. He could not possibly take out the rolling pin when the time came.

Was he planning to make the other party laugh to death at him?

"Senior Brother has already learned the Stainless Sword Technique?" Su Youyi asked curiously as they walked along the street. She remembered that it had only been a few days since her master had bestowed the sword technique to her senior.

"Of course, I'm a genius." Liang Yi shamelessly patted his chest and admitted.

Was a cheat like his looks and luck a part of his strength? Moreover, as the main character, how could using a cheat to level up be considered cheating?

This was called using one's advantages rationally!
