The Ghost of Fog
Chapter 266. Conversation
"Then?"
"Then? How mean? My story is over."
The girl sipped a warm, fragrant tea made by Lu Jia Li. For a moment he exhaled to enjoy the comfortable sensation after swallowing a few sips of tea.
"You met someone who unleashed magic to fool A Xin's gaze. And that person became your teacher? The truth is, where is there such a demon science?" Minghao who sat face to face with Zhang Qiaofeng denied. There was clearly a look of disbelief on his face.
"Don't believe yasudah. I'm not pregnant and I'm still a girl. Wait another four months, will my stomach swell. That's how you'll believe it." the girl replied indifferently and went back to sipping her tea.
Minghao who was indeed clueless with all sorts of magic turned to Zhang Hongli as if asking for an answer. The grandfather gave a small snort when he gave an explanation.
"Magic science exists. But it is not like magic in fairy tales that can create fire or water. Just magic like fooling your eyes or your hearing or breaking your spirits or blinding your eyes for a moment or paying attention to your ears or–"
"How much or again?" cut off Minghao quickly.
Zhang Hongli paused for a moment and saw his fingers moving like people counting. Then go back on. "Or mute your voice or make you paralyzed or–"
"Enough, I've more than understood!" firmly Minghao did not want to hear anymore.
"Alright, you're pretty quick to respond."
Then Yin Mei stepped forward and asked worriedly, "Miss, are you really alright?"
Zhang Qoaofeng looked at the girl fixedly and smiled. "Didn't you see now that I am in good condition? Is there something in me that looks bad? Well, hayo say."
This time the one who answered was not Yin Mei who was the address of the question, it was Minghao who interjected. "You're so naughty. It is not good in you that is so much that my fingers and toes would not be enough to count them. Most conspicuously, you often go without saying goodbye!"
Zhang Qiaofeng pursed his lips as he replied, "Let, here are grandfathers and uncles. Why worry about the state of the family if I just go for a few days."
"Well, well, gone a few days? You're even more than a week away from home!!" Minghao could not help but hold back his emotions and already stood up while pointing at the tip of the girl's nose.
"I'm sorry.not intentionally...."
"Not intentionally? Where else is that, huh!?"

"The Devil's State of No Appeal since the death of Kiam Bong and Xu Cin Keng, has weakened the organization a bit. It's not enough to destroy everything, but it satisfies me."
"You're right, at least it wasn't in vain that I was sent here by the emperor to investigate. Even I helped you in the role of weakening this organization."
The two people were sitting in Lin Tian's front yard while chatting a lot of things. Either important or not but they want to talk about something just to unwind.
Lin Tian who a few days ago had killed the Golden Dragon, today it was as if there was nothing and he was behaving as usual. Indeed it was one of Zhang Heng's orders to be ordinary and inconspicuous.
At one point, amidst the silence after chatting about the past, Lin Tian asked, "When are you going home?"
Xin Kiu turned his head while answering, "You mean?"
"When did you go back to the empire? Can't you be here forever? Besides, I don't want our struggle to go to waste without the emperor knowing. If you die here, who will report all our efforts to the emperor?"
"You'll exist."
"Don't you think, since the beginning of our cooperation, inevitably I have to protect you with life. Because only you are able to convey all the important information to the emperor. If I were to report, he might believe. The first thing he thought about was, who am I? Where the hell am I from? Why would I help him? That just adds to the suspicion."
"Just say you're my friend, he'll probably believe it." Xin Kiu replied quickly without a second thought.
"It's stupid, even if I talk like that, I doubt if it's still intact this head" he said, stroking his neck.
After that only silence enveloped them. Both dissolve in their minds. There is one of the most severe problems that make both of them dizzy, so when they want to reveal to the other person, they simultaneously say.
"Xin Kiu."
"Lin Tian."
The two were both shocked and Xin Kiu relented, "You go first."
"Alright, because this is a very important issue. A few days ago, I heard that Zhang Heng will soon send all the members to invade the Song empire. Right now the empire is in a defensive state and they seem like they are constrained. So the plan was, Zhang Heng would lock up from all directions and destroy the empire in the capital."
Xin Kiu was aghast and quickly replied, "Hey, I also want to say something similar."
"Good, we're thinking. Then, what's the next plan? Who we should cut down. You know, all the true warriors here are capable of mastering Ling Haocun's Fire Palm Punch, I can fight two of them simultaneously, but more than that I won't be strong. And if against Zhang Heng, according to my estimation I can only match him in a one-on-one fight."
Xin Kiu seemed to think hard by stroking his chin. All the information he had gathered all along was put together into one and sought the best path for this extremely strange situation.
They should be able to take action right now, otherwise, the entire empire would be a victim!
"Buntu..it's a dead end.." Xin Kiu finally said.
"Whatdidyou say? Why could that be?"
"Lin Tian, those true warriors were always close together. If you want to kill them, it can't be done one-on-one, but it has to be the same. And you yourself said that you couldn't match them." Xin Kiu replied gloomily.
Lin Tian struck the right armchair bearing and stomped on the ground violently. He was irritated and dissatisfied with Xin Kiu's words just now. But if you think logically, it makes sense too. How could they trap one of the six true warriors?
Xin Kiu suddenly stood up and said, "Lin Tian, I'm leaving first. I've been gone too long and I'm afraid it'll arouse suspicion."
"Alright, be careful not to get caught when you get out of here."
"Of course, don't I do that every day?"
When Xin Kiu left, inexplicably Lin Tian's feelings became uneasy. Restless, yes, his heart was feeling very uneasy. I don't know what it is he doesn't understand.
"Ah be it.." at last he said and entered his house.
The two people did not know, if it was not far from them, on top of a tall tree, there was an old grandfather and a woman who stood glaring at Lin Tian's wits. Looking sharply filled with flames of anger.
This already showed clearly the intelligence level of the two people was so high that Lin Tian was not aware of his presence.
"Hm.it turns out he was the culprit all this time.." murmured the grandfather.
