Being too ferocious because of caution
Chapter 656
Chapter 654 Today and the month
After hanging up the phone, Zhao Yi got a phone number and address from Barbara.
He looked carefully and dialed the phone.
Toot——
Soon, a very magnetic middle-aged man's voice came from the other end.
"Hello?"
"Which one?"
Zhao Yi:
"Zhao Yi."
When the other party heard the name, he was obviously stunned for a while.
Then, the middle-aged man laughed.
"It's...weird."
"So, how do you prove that you are Zhao Yi?"
Zhao Yi turned on the video call function.
The other party is connected.
Then the two saw each other.
The middle-aged man is a very stylish guy, greasy with a hint of youthfulness, and his hair is gray but neatly combed.
"Okay, okay...I'm sure you are the murderous maniac."
"But I'm really curious, why do you have my contact information?"
Zhao Yi took out Liu Ruoqing's pendant and waved it in front of the camera.
Seeing the pendant, the smile on the middle-aged man's face suddenly faded.
"What's your relationship with her?"
Zhao didn't blush and replied without a beating heart:
"friend."
"By the way, what's your name?"
The middle-aged man was silent for a while.
"I have no name, only a code name. You can call me Jin Shiyue."
"I am the president of the Bounty Association."
"Why are you looking for me?"
Zhao Yi said slowly:
"I want to break into the imperial capital and need your help."
Jin Shiyue did not answer Zhao Yi immediately, but asked instead:
"Where is Liu Ruoqing now?"
Zhao Yi:
"The Road to Immortality."
"Has she ever come back? Or...sent back some messages."
"No."
After a pause, Zhao Yi added:
"Today, with your identity, you should know what kind of hell the Immortal Road is. What kind of message you want to send back from that place... I'm afraid it will be difficult."
When Yue heard this, her eyes were slightly lowered and she sighed:
"Too."
"It's just that I haven't seen you for a long time, so I miss you a little bit."
He didn't hide himself, he spoke very simply.
When Zhao saw his depressed look, he clicked his tongue and said:
"If you like it, you should boldly pursue it. Everyone is gone. Why are you sighing here?"
Now Shiyue raised her eyes, her eyes were a little uncertain:
"Can……"
Zhao Yi:
"What's the matter? I think your relationship should be pretty good. You don't even dare to say those few words. It's really a coward's behavior to let you have unrequited love here."
Jin Shiyue smiled bitterly:
"That's not what happened..."
Zhao Yi:
"Not what I thought?"
"Is it your excuse, or are you trying to escape?"
Today's month:
"em..."
"Mr. Zhao, actually I like her friend, that girl Meng Jiao who has always been cold."
The atmosphere was silent for a few seconds.
Zhao Yi looked at his phone and pressed hang up.
He lit a cigarette, looked out the window and blew out a puff of white smoke.
How embarrassing...
This guy really doesn't play by the rules.
Or maybe he overestimated Liu Ruoqing's attractiveness?
For Zhao Yi, Meng Jiao is a relatively unfamiliar name.
The other party is also one of the top leaders of the gangster union, but she is an iceberg beauty and doesn't like to talk.
The two met only once.
Jingle bell——
Not long after, the call came again.
Zhao Yi answered the phone.
"Hey, Mr. Zhao, the matter of your settling in the imperial capital is not a trivial matter. I'm afraid we'll have to find an opportunity to discuss it in detail later."
The voice of Shiyue rang.
In fact, it can be seen that he and Liu Ruoqing have a very good relationship. After seeing the token Liu Ruoqing left for Zhao Yi, Jin Shiyue's attitude became very patient.
Zhao Yi replied:
"It depends on when you are free."
Jin Shiyue turned over his calendar and said:
"Three days later."
"The Imperial City is not very safe. Please provide me with an address and I will visit you in three days."
Zhao Yi gave Jin Shiyue the position of the entertainment company branch.
Although Liu Ruoqing was involved, Zhao Yi still didn't completely believe this guy. He was an old man from the Imperial Capital. He had asked him about Liu Ruoqing before and learned that Liu Ruoqing had already gone to the Immortal Road and could not look back. He was sold for profit.
On the other end of the imperial capital, after hanging up the phone, Jin Shiyue's expression also changed subtly.
His female assistant showed a flattering smile:
"Master Yue, Zhao Yi, this murderous maniac, actually dares to contact us. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"
"I'll go down and make preparations right now, and I'll bring my men back to catch them all in one fell swoop!"
"By then, with Zhao Yi's life in hand, Yue Da can ask for many conditions from the Li family. This will be a huge improvement for our Bounty Association!"
Jin Shiyue nodded.
The assistant was secretly happy. Last time, he received a lot of benefits from the people of the Fifth Federation and wanted to deal with Zhao Yi.
Too bad things failed.
She was still worried about how to keep the benefits without being exposed.
It's fine now.
Zhao Yi came to the door himself.
The pressure on my end suddenly became much less.
After she went out, Jin Shiyue calmly picked up the phone on the table and called another person:
"Old Xu."
"Get another assistant."
…
Imperial capital.
Huangliangmeng Mansion.
In the Dabie Wilderness, Huang Liangmeng received three people wearing black cloaks.
This time, Huang Liangmeng's attitude was very humble and he asked his servants to clean his residence early.
"Three adults, please come this way."
Huang Liangmeng had a bright smile on his face, as if he had won a lottery, and introduced the three of them into the main hall.
Today's villa is very clean, with almost no servants visible.
After sitting down, the three of them pulled down their hoods.
On their heads, they were wearing cruel and strange instruments of torture, and their flesh and blood were bloody.
There are even people whose brains are steaming.
"How have you accomplished what Lord Ares told you?"
Huang Liangmeng rubbed his hands, the smile on his face was a little stiff.
"I'm so sorry...my lords."
"But this time it happened for a reason..."
Hearing him say this, a black-robed man's tone became much colder:
"Mist Huang, you know the church has never had much patience with losers..."

When he raised his hand, Huang Liang Meng's eyelids jumped wildly!
You're not going to take action as soon as you come up, are you? !
These damn guys have spent so much effort to get themselves to where they are now. They can't just kill themselves, right?
The offensive behavior of the man in black was completely different from what Huang Liangmeng had expected, and he was shocked!
Just when Huang Liangmeng was about to be attacked by the men in black robes, his companions stopped him and saved Huang Liangmeng's life.
"I want to hear his quibbles."
Seeing this, Huang Liangmeng seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and hurriedly said:
"Adults..."
"That Zhao Yi is really too cunning, and he tampered with the Infinite Teleportation Array last time, which caused many vigilant people to focus on me, so in order not to affect the church's future plans, and not to cause trouble to Lord Ares, It's troublesome, so I act in a more subtle way and don't dare to be too presumptuous..."
The man in black robe frowned:
"How did he get out after the teleportation formation rules in Wujian were modified?"
Huang Liangmeng described the situation at that time and the three suffering monks in front of him in detail.
As they listened, murderous intent gradually gathered in their eyes.
"You better not lie, Mist Wong."
"The church will conduct a second investigation on this matter."
Huang Liangmeng looked at the emotionless eyes of these three people and said with a sorry smile:
"Three adults, how dare I lie to you!"
"That's true!"
"Furthermore, although the person I was looking for this time did not solve Zhao Yi, the rest of the matter has been dealt with. No outsider knows about this matter..."
"As for killing Zhao Yi, there will always be an opportunity in the future!"
After the three people heard this, the evil spirit in the room decreased slightly and was not as aggressive as before.
"In addition to wanting to get X-0's body, we have something very important to inform you this time..."
The female monk sitting on the far left spoke. She had the most horrifying instrument of torture. Dozens of sharp fishhooks were hooked into her gills. The fishing line was pulled to the back of her head, connected to her skull, and spread all the way down. Locked all the vertebrae.
"My lord, no matter what your orders, I will do whatever I can to get it done for you, even if I go up mountains of swords and into seas of fire!"
Huang Liangmeng patted his chest with an expression that said, "You can rest assured."
The female suffering monk said:
"Li Chenglong."
Huang Liangmeng was slightly startled:
"Li Chenglong?"
"He, isn't he dead?"
The woman said expressionlessly:
"It's just that the body is dead."
“The area where he really fits the needs of the church is in that part of his soul.”
"As early as when he was discovered, the church had already sent people to use the power of special torture instruments to protect that part of the soul with special power, and handed it over to the people of the Li family to help take care of it."
"But after Li Chenglong's accident last time, the Li family discovered something very strange..."
"A certain part of Li Chenglong's soul... was cut out."
When Huang Liangmeng heard this, he was a little surprised and said:
"Has some part of your soul been cut off?"
woman:
"Yes."
"The most critical part of the 'key' has been cut off."
Huang Liangmeng paced around the room a few times.
"Do the adults suspect... that the Li family used Li Chenglong's death to cut out the mark of his soul?"
The woman and her two companions looked at each other.
"No, the Li family is controlled by the church and they dare not do this."
"We think this matter is related to Zhao Yi."
Huang Liang Meng was very surprised:
"It's impossible... When Zhao Yi killed Li Chenglong, his strength was not even that of a great killer. How could he cut off a person's soul and take it away?"
Telekinesis can cause a person to die easily through mental attacks.
Even a half-step of great evil can easily crush the souls of people in the same realm through the impact of telekinesis.
This does not require special abilities.
As long as you do something in the spiritual realm, you can naturally accomplish it.
Even through some secret techniques, it is not impossible to detect some memories of other people's spiritual world.
But if you want to cut off the soul of others and take it away... this is not something that ordinary people can do.
That kind of power... involves cause and effect.
"X-0's power... is beyond your imagination."
"Although X-0's power has been weakened due to some reasons that even the church is not very clear about, its extraordinaryness may still support him to do some incredible things."
Another suffering monk said so.
"In short..."
"Now your plan needs some adjustments."
"Take advantage of you not being exposed yet."
"He will be much less defensive against you."
Huang Liangmeng thought:
"I understand..."
"I will investigate the matter of Li Chenglong as soon as possible!"
Three monks stood up and handed a special box to Huang Liangmeng.
"Lord Ares is not satisfied with your efficiency... but the magnanimous Lord Ares is still willing to give you special help."
Seeing Huang Liangmeng take the box, a monk came up to Huang Liangmeng and stared at him with his empty and cold eyes.
"Remember... you only have one month."
"This box can be the source of your power, but it can also be the shackles that claim your life..."
Huang Liangmeng's mouth twitched slightly.
"I know, please rest assured, adults... I will definitely handle this matter within a month!"
After sending the three away, Huang Liangmeng's face did not improve at all.
The special metal box in his hand was also very heavy. He didn't want to hold it in his hand, but he didn't dare to throw it away.
Soon, the housekeeper of the mansion came over and whispered:
"Sir, the three adults have left."
Huang Liangmeng looked at the box in his hand and often exhaled.
"It's a big trouble..."
He muttered to himself, and his eyes suddenly became extremely resentful.
"Damn Zhao Yi... If it weren't for you, how could I be in such a predicament now?"
Huang Liangmeng began to plan secretly in his heart, and the vicious plan appeared in front of him one by one...
...
Entertainment company branch.
A pavilion, two cups of fragrant tea.
The moment they met, Zhao Yi and Jin Shiyue were unexpectedly calm.
"When Mr. Zhao's notoriety was on the headlines of the imperial capital, I actually investigated your background."
"I also speculated about Mr. Zhao's past."
"But I really didn't expect that you would be related to that woman Liu Ruoqing."
When Liu Ruoqing was mentioned, Jin Shiyue's expression was obviously a little dazed.
Zhao Yi gathered his clothes and smiled:
"Miss Liu seems to be a very powerful person in the imperial capital."
Jin Shiyue sighed.
"Liu Ruoqing has helped me a lot in making the Bounty Association grow to what it is today."
"Of course, the most important thing is... it's because of her that I met Meng Jiao."
Zhao Yi raised his eyebrows:
"Isn't Liu Ruoqing good?"
Jin Shiyue's eyes flashed with obsession, and said:
"I like snow mountains."
"Especially when it snows, there is a suffocating loneliness on the snow mountains. She fascinates me."
Zhao Yi interrupted his romance:
"It may be that you just stand too high, and the lack of oxygen causes you to have hallucinations."
Jin Shiyue said helplessly:
"People always have to leave a little fantasy for themselves."
Zhao Yi smiled and raised the teacup.
"Why don't you enter the Immortal Road with her?"
Jin Shiyue shook his head:
"I'm too weak."
"And... I have more important things to do."
PS: Today, two chapters are merged into one.
4,000 words are definitely enough, don't worry.
Good night, my dears!
