The strongest middleman in the heavens

Chapter 290 Zhu Houzhao's Purpose
"I still feel a little hung up."

Bai Zhantang hesitated when he heard Ji Wuming's words.

He was naturally timid, so he thought that this Thieves King Contest was just a gathering of thieves from all over the world to compete with each other and steal technology.

If he was lucky enough to be canonized as a Thief Saint, then naturally it would not be in vain for him to come to this world for a while.

But the situation is completely different now, the imperial court has already stepped in, and there are black and white in the rivers and lakes, with different sects and sects.

If one is not careful, it is very likely that it will be over!
"Let me tell you what you think, brat. When you first came out, you were so bold and ambitious, and you were so famous in the rivers and lakes with fresh clothes and angry horses. If you are so cowardly now, how will you become famous in the future?"

Ji Wuming stared at Bai Zhantang and said.

Being so excited by Ji Wuming, Bai Zhantang's eyes fluctuated for a while, and finally he seemed to have made up his mind, nodded heavily, and said, "Okay!"

Seeing that Bai Zhantang agreed, Ji Wuming also had a look of excitement in his eyes.

Now he is not the murderous maniac who later used all means to achieve his goals.

One thing he is better than Bai Zhantang is that he came out of the rivers and lakes a few years earlier, relying on his martial arts is not bad among the younger generation, so he proclaimed himself a god of robbers.

My heart is also full of fantasies and expectations for Jianghu.

"Eh? Have you heard that the Jiangnan relic disappeared mysteriously!" At this moment, a person in the tea stand suddenly spoke.

"What? The relic has disappeared, has it been taken by someone?"

"So, the King of Pirates Tournament has come to an end? That would be a lot of fun, do you know who won it? This is a blatant provocation to all sects, black and white!"

"..."

The tea stand exploded instantly because of the sudden news.

Bai Zhantang and Ji Wuming, who were still planning to make a big splash just now, were also stunned at this moment.

"How is this possible? Could it be that some old monsters made a move?" Ji Wuming asked in surprise.

"I knew it would not be that simple, think about it, the reward for those who get the name of Thief Saint is not just a mere underworld reputation, but a promise from the emperor.

This kind of reward, I am afraid that few people can resist the temptation, even those seniors who have escaped from the world, they will probably make a move..."

Bai Zhantang said with a sigh.

"Hehe, do you know who got this relic?" The person who spoke before spoke again.

"Who!"

Everyone in the tea stall couldn't help looking over.

Seeing everyone's eyes on him, the man's vanity was greatly satisfied, he raised his head slightly, and said:
"... There are gossip reports that someone saw a figure coming and going near the rich businessman, because it was dark and the sky was high at that time, so they couldn't see clearly.

That person is not sure if it is a human or a ghost..."

Hearing this, there was a burst of sighing in the tea stall, "Is this what you mean by knowing who stole the relic?"

Being sighed by everyone, the man didn't show any panic on his face, and said:
"Hmph, if I tell you who that person is, would you believe me?"

When he asked such a question, everyone choked and didn't know how to answer for a moment. Indeed, if this person really said that, he really couldn't believe it.

Seeing that everyone was silent, the man got up and said, "Although I don't know the exact appearance, but there are general characteristics..."

When he said this, his tone paused slightly, he didn't want to whet everyone's appetite, and continued: "I only know that he is a boy of sixteen or seventeen years old.

I don't know about martial arts, but Qinggong is Treading Wuhen. In addition, there is another most important clue, he once beat Sikong Zhaixing in Qinggong!
If you don't believe me, you can go to the imperial list outside the city gate, all the news about that person has been announced.

Don't be discouraged, everyone, this is the boundary of Jiangnan, as long as he doesn't return to the capital as agreed, everything is possible for others! "

After the man finished speaking, he turned around and left the tea stand.

And the others rushed out in a swarm, heading towards the gate of the city, even the tea stall owner hurriedly followed.

However, at this time, there were two people in the tea stall who did not leave.

These two people are none other than Ji Wuming and Bai Zhantang.

At this moment, the atmosphere between the two was a bit dignified, and Ji Wuming looked at Bai Zhantang, who was also sluggish, with suspicion in his eyes.

"Old White!"

Hearing Ji Wuming's words, Bai Zhantang was taken aback for a moment, the teacup in his hand shook, and he subconsciously clenched his hands.

Some mechanically turned their heads to look at Ji Wuming, and said, "Xiao Ji..."

"Taxue Wuhen seems to be your lightness skill, right?" Ji Wuming said in a deep voice.

"...What do you mean?" Seeing that something was wrong with Ji Wuming, Bai Zhantang also came back to his senses and asked.

"Taxue Wuhen is my lightness kung fu, but I am not the only one who can do it. My mother, your master, and others from the Sunflower Sect can do it too!"

"You can explain everything else, but you are the only one who defeated Sikong Zhaixing with Qinggong and participated in the Pirate King Contest!"

Ji Wuming said coldly.

"Xiao Ji, what do you mean? Don't forget, I've been with you all this time!" Being so suspicious by his brother, Bai Zhantang was also impatient.

Immediately stood up and drank.

"Bai Zhantang, don't forget, we were together before, but that was before the capital, and then we went to the south of the Yangtze River. I was the one who lured away the four kings of thieves!"

Ji Wuming was also excited, stood up and looked at Bai Zhantang.

"Before I came, with your lightness kung fu, as long as you think, it's not a problem to go back and forth two or three times, right?"

Being so wronged by Ji Wuming, Bai Zhantang couldn't think of an explanation for a while.

At this moment, he was both angry and wronged. Being misunderstood by his brother made him feel very hurt.

"I didn't expect you to be this kind of person. We are almost good brothers who have played together since we were young. Since the King of Pirates Tournament, I have always thought about how to help you get the name of Saint Pirates.

The two of us brothers traveled all over the rivers and lakes to create a world, but I didn't expect you to plot against me, count me as the wrong person! "

After finishing speaking, Ji Wuming got up abruptly, turned and left without looking back.

Looking at the back of Ji Wuming leaving, Bai Zhantang wanted to persuade him to stay, but he couldn't say anything after opening his mouth. It is impossible for Ji Wuming to listen to his explanation now.

"Which bastard framed me!" Saying that, Bai Zhantang couldn't help punching the table hard.

At the same time, in the Imperial Palace, in the Imperial Study Room.

Zhu Hou looked at the middle-aged man standing tall in front of him, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and said:

"Ancient three links, well done!"

Hearing this, Gu Santong nodded and said, "This is what subordinates should do!"

Seeing this, Zhu Houzhao nodded slightly.

"Is the emperor very optimistic about this kid?" Gu Santong looked at Zhu Houzhao and asked.

"He is very good. If he follows his original trajectory, it would be a bit of a waste of this talent. I need such a genius to serve me."

Hearing what Zhu Houzhao said, Gu Santong remained silent and said nothing more.

"Three links..."

"Your Majesty, please order!"

"Go to Jiangnan and train him well. It won't take long for him to become famous all over the world. At that time, danger will be inevitable. Protect this kid secretly.

In the future, I will be of great use! "

"Yes!"
