Chapter Summary
Although Lin Lei knows many people, when it comes to true friends, he probably can't compare to Liu Ning and Zhao Wudi. Lin Lei and Liu Ning both understood that Zhao Wudi must have something to say to them; otherwise, he would have kept these people behind. I'd like to hear your thoughts: do you want to continue hunting here, or perhaps you're thinking of moving to another place, or even returning to the city?" Everyone here is intelligent, and when Zhao Wudi said those words, the two understoo...
This bottle of wine alone shows that Zhao Wudi has reached the pinnacle of humanity. Although Lin Lei knows many people, when it comes to true friends, he probably can't compare to Liu Ning and Zhao Wudi. The relationship between these two is such that they would exchange their lives for each other. Looking at the whole world, who dares to say that they have a friend who would exchange their life for them? That would probably be very unlikely.
Lin Lei also felt somewhat defeated at this moment. There were many people who flattered him and asked him for favors because of his identity as a magician. If he didn't have this identity, those people would probably have run away long ago, and he shouldn't expect them to stay by his side. There's nothing he can do about it.
Although the others joined in the fun, they quickly returned to their RVs after having a drink. In this era, circles exist; everyone has their own. Don't try to force your way into someone else's circle. If you don't have the ability, it won't do you any good. So you must know your place. This kind of place isn't one you can just stay in as you please. It's best to be aware of your own limitations. These people did a very good job, knowing that these three experts were part of a small circle. Being able to dine with a hero like Zhao Wudi was already something to boast about; there was no need to force yourself to stay, as that could easily annoy others. So these guys took their things and went back.
Lin Lei and Liu Ning both understood that Zhao Wudi must have something to say to them; otherwise, he would have kept these people behind. They weren't very good at drinking, but Zhao Wudi loved it, so he needed one or two people to keep him company. However, when these people left, Zhao Wudi didn't say anything. Both of them were shrewd and immediately understood what Zhao Wudi was thinking. He must have something he couldn't tell anyone and wanted to discuss it privately. So, they both looked at Zhao Wudi to see what he wanted to talk about. Had he discovered some clues? After all, they were guilty, and if it weren't for the two of them, how could Shangguan Bao have died here?
"You two have been here for quite some time now. I'd like to hear your thoughts: do you want to continue hunting here, or perhaps you're thinking of moving to another place, or even returning to the city?"
Everyone here is intelligent, and when Zhao Wudi said those words, the two understood what was going on. Zhao Wudi probably guessed that they were the ones who did it, but to prevent the possibility of listening devices, he didn't explain it clearly. Intelligent people don't need to say too much when they talk; it's up to you to decide what to do. Lin Lei and Liu Ning exchanged glances. Lin Lei didn't seem surprised, while Liu Ning forcibly suppressed his surprise. Zhao Wudi quite appreciated the two boys' stance. They weren't the kind of people who were all brawn and no brains; they could handle things very calmly when faced with problems. The future of these two boys is truly limitless.
Zhao Wudi didn't know much about Lin Lei, but he knew Liu Ning very well. He naturally knew what kind of guy Liu Ning was. He always caused trouble even when there was nothing wrong, so he must have had a conflict with Shangguan Bao and the others. If there hadn't been a conflict, things wouldn't be like this now. But Zhao Wudi didn't point it out. He just wanted to see how the two of them answered. That way, Zhao Wudi would know what was going on. When masters clash, it's often just a matter of a moment. If you don't figure it out, you might reveal a lot of information.
"Why go anywhere else? This place is excellent and will greatly benefit both of us. Besides, we've already searched the surrounding area, and we chose this place because we don't think it's hindering your investigation. If so, we can go somewhere else, but if you leave, we're thinking of coming back. There aren't any good places around here. Other places are either too dangerous or don't have enough warrior-level beasts. At our current level, fighting warrior-level beasts would be very uncomfortable for us, and we wouldn't make any progress. It would be a waste of our time, and we only have a few days left to practice before the ancient ruins open, so we're not thinking of changing places."
After hearing Liu Ning's words, Zhao Wudi understood what was going on. He knew what the two of them were up to. Anyway, Shangguan Qingyun didn't dare to ask, so Zhao Wudi just laughed it off. Since Zhao Wudi arrived, Shangguan Qingyun had dropped all his airs and obediently served as Zhao Wudi's deputy.
"You can continue practicing here. There's something I need to tell you. Shangguan Bao died here. Actually, nobody really cares about him. Even if I'm here to investigate, it's because of pressure from above. Don't feel too much pressure. But there's one person who's different. He was Shangguan Bao's master. You might not think much of it, but at the level of a spiritual master, the master-disciple relationship is extremely important. After Shangguan Bao died, his master couldn't make any progress, at least not in the short term, unless he could find a new disciple. That's how he could continue to progress. And this guy is quite capable; he's the commander of the Northern Military Region."
As Zhao Wudi was leaving, he threw out a remark that Liu Ning didn't take seriously. What were those big shots in the army? They were just a little more powerful, weren't they? He had seen Commander Kong before; he was quite formidable, but what could he do to him? He had forced that guy to bow his head several times. Now, he didn't dare to cause trouble for him. If he really wanted to cause trouble, then he would show him what he was capable of.
Lin Lei, standing nearby, wasn't so optimistic. After hearing this, he frowned deeply, clearly indicating that the matter wasn't so simple. Liu Ning was also puzzled. "Is there anything in this world that you magicians are afraid of? It's just the commander of the Northern Military Region! You act like he's a god descended from heaven..."
