"Just kidding."
But Li Jie could see the hungry look in their leader's eye, it resembled the look he had right before he took the head of a person on his hit list.
Wanting to change the topic the third captain asked, "How do you plan to find the Alchemist? He's evaded you for more than a decade."
"I have realized that old geezer is too experienced and won't let himself get caught easily. Hence, I've decided to take a roundabout method to finding him." Their leader announced, crossing and uncrossing his legs.
The third captain furrowed his brows, wondering if there really were a roundabout method to sniffing out the alchemist.
