Chapter 110 - Finding A Clue
Chapter 110 – Finding A Clue
Yun Lintian turned to Chu Heng, waiting for his reply.
Chu Heng realized this, he hurriedly said. "You don't have to. Since you've apologized to us, everything in the past has been written off."
Mo Changfei shook his head, "Chu… Brother Chu. I've caused your family so much trouble in the past. I'll repay it back later. You have to accept this."
Chu Heng was about to say something, but his father grabbed his shoulder and shook his head at him.
Chu Heng's father moved to the front, looking at Mo Changfei, and said. "We will gladly accept it."
He had more experience than Chu Heng. He knew if his family still insisted on refusing Mo Changfei's repayment, it could become Mo Changfei's heart demon in the future. Since Mo Changfei had already repented, he needed to give him a chance.
Mo Changfei looked at Chu Heng's father with gratitude. When he was about to say something, Chu Mi, who just finished cleaning up, appeared in the living room and quickly rushed to her father's side.
"What are you going to do, Mo Changfei!?" Chu Mi shouted angrily and prepared to attack Mo Changfei.
Chu Heng hurriedly held his sister back and said. "You've misunderstood, Little Mi."
Chu Mi stopped her action and looked at Chu Heng with confusion. "Misunderstood?"
Chu Heng briefly explained the situation, and Chu Mi immediately understood. However, she did not believe an evil person like Mo Changfei had truly repented. She still stared at him vigilantly.
Mo Changfei smiled wryly. He admitted he was indeed a scum in the past, but after knowing the truth, he had genuinely repented of his action and wanted to start a new life.
He took a deep breath and turned to Yun Lintian. "Let's talk about Hei Fu."
Yun Lintian motioned with his chin, indicating Mo Changfei can go on.
"Hei Fu is the owner of the Hei Trading Firm only on the surface. There's actually a person behind him. However, I never met that person before. The only clue I have is he's someone from the Spring Wind Capital City, and his influence should not be small." Mo Changfei said.
Yun Lintian's expression did not change in the slightest, as he had already expected this. Although he just arrived in this town a while ago, he could see quite a number of Spirit Profound practitioners in the town. How could a mere tenth level of Essence Profound Realm like Hei Fu become a local tyrant with no one dare to resist? The only explanation was he had a strong background.
"Is suppressing everyone through the food's price his own plan?" Yun Lintian asked.
Mo Changfei shook his head, "Although he's greedy, he did not come up with this plan by himself. It is the person behind the scene's instruction."
Yun Lintian nodded his head. "What is his intention by sending you here?"
Mo Changfei answered truthfully, with a trace of embarrassment. "He wants me to watch you. It is my own action to get in here."
"Watching me? Why?" Yun Lintian was puzzled. He didn't think he dresses like a wealthy man. Why would Hei Fu want to stare at him? Was it because he appeared with Chu Heng?
Mo Changfei answered, "At first, I don't know as well. He always sent me to watch the newcomers. Later, I seem to understand, he wants to find someone."
"Finding someone?" A frown appeared on Yun Lintian's face.
He recalled his actions during these past months. There were two major confrontations: the Black Eagle Bandit group's incident and the Feng clan's. Both of them related to the Wang clan of the Sky Fall Nation, which should have nothing to do with people in Spring Wind Nation.
As for the conflict between him and Ye Xiaolong, it could be ruled out as he believed Ye Xiaolong wasn't stupid enough to leak his information. Therefore, the person Hei Fu was looking for should have nothing to do with him.
Mo Changfei replied, "I don't know a specific detail on this. It's only my guess." Suddenly, he thought of something and turned to look at the leather bag at the door. "Wait. Everyone I've monitored in the past all has a lot of profound beast's meat with them. Is it because of this?"
Yun Lintian's eyes narrowed slightly upon hearing this. His mind spun rapidly, thinking of the reason behind Hei Fu's purpose… Why would he want to find people who have profound beast's meat with them? Could it be he wants to find someone that could erase Abyssal Energy? Or someone that could survive after infecting with Abyssal Energy?
There were too many possibilities in this one. Yun Lintian could not pinpoint out, but the only thing he could confirm right now was he could not simply buy all the profound beast's meat in this town as he planned anymore. Otherwise, he would become a prime target instantly. It seemed he had to earn them by himself.
Yun Lintian had a headache. He felt the plans he came up with recently always ended up with a problem. Could it be he had to stay in the Land of Beyond Heaven for real? But he still needed a lot of profound beast's meat to practice. Not to mention his people, they had also required it.
Mo Changfei interrupted Yun Lintian's thought process as he said, "Young Doctor, I think you should toss this bag away as soon as possible. Do you want me to do it for you?"
Yun Lintian shook his head. "No. I can do it by myself." Suddenly, an idea flashed across his mind. He asked, "Where do I have to throw them away? Is there a specific location here in this town?"
Mo Changfei nodded. "There is a place in the southernmost of the town. Do you want me to bring you there?"
Yun Lintian smiled. "Have you forgotten your identity? You are still Hei Fu's underling right now. Just tell me the location. I'll go by myself."
Mo Changfei scratched his head. He indeed forgot he was still Hei Fu's underling. What would happen if he appears on the streets with Yun Lintian, the target he had to monitor? Hei Fu would instantly know he had betrayed him.
