Chapter 70: Bring It To Me, I can handle it!
Inside the Heaven Patrol Tower.
Lin Fengmian was a bit overwhelmed at this moment. He had been interrogated for an unknown amount of time and had answered everything honestly.
However, he felt that this old man was not reliable, so he selectively concealed his special status within the Joyful Union Sect and his ambiguous relationships with Liu Mei, Xia Yunxi, and others.
He only said that he took the opportunity to escape during the attack by the Huanxi Temple monks while he was out.
The old man then asked where Liu Mei and the others were. Lin Fengmian could only say that they might still be in Dongluo City, and he wasn’t very clear about it.
The old man sighed deeply and lamented, “What a waste, what a waste.”
“Waste?” Lin Fengmian was speechless.
The old man suddenly realized, coughed dryly, and said seriously, “These demonesses are extremely evil. Dying at the hands of the Huanxi Temple monks is such a waste. If they fell into my hands, I would definitely enlighten them and make them repent and turn to good.”
Lin Fengmian didn’t believe a word of it, but he could only nod awkwardly and then asked, “Now I’m worried that these demonesses might harm my family. What should I do?”
The old man’s eyes lit up and he suddenly stood up, only to sit down again in disappointment.
“Unfortunately, it’s a pity that I have to guard Luo City. Otherwise, I would have gone with you to ambush those demonesses and fight them for three hundred rounds to show them the power of my Jade-Faced Young Master.”
Lin Fengmian felt both amused and helpless, so he agreed, “What you say is right, Senior. What should I do now?”
The old man said listlessly, “You are from the Zhao Kingdom, so this falls under local jurisdiction. I have no authority here. You must go to the local Heaven Patrol Tower.”
Lin Fengmian’s face darkened. Why are you asking so many questions when you have no authority?
He had no choice but to smile bitterly, “I understand, Senior.”
The old man smiled and handed him a document, “But I won’t let you tell me your story for nothing.”
“Here, fill this out and I’ll apply for a VIP pass for you. With this pass, you’ll be considered a VIP guest of our Heaven Patrol Tower.”
“I don’t usually give out this VIP pass so easily. Consider it a payment for your story.”
Lin Fengmian was overjoyed, “Thank you, Senior!”
He quickly filled out the document and handed it back.
The old man took out a pass and handed it to him, “This is the VIP pass. When you return to the local Heaven Patrol Tower, show them this pass, and they will at least give some face and take it more seriously.”
“But don’t use this pass to do evil or to act under false pretenses. If you get caught, you’ll be in big trouble.”
Lin Fengmian nodded, “I understand, Senior!”
The old man nodded and suddenly put his arm around Lin Fengmian, grinning, “So, how was the taste of the Joyful Union Sect demonesses?”
Lin Fengmian looked at his leering smile and said awkwardly, “It was okay?”
“Just okay?” The old man raised his eyebrows.
Lin Fengmian quickly corrected himself, “It was very good!”
The old man smiled meaningfully, “Young man, lust is a double-edged sword! If they come looking for you again, tell them to bring it to me. I can handle it.”
Lin Fengmian’s smile stiffened as he nodded, “Yes, I understand, Senior.”
He walked out of the Heaven Patrol Tower in a daze, only to find that it was already dark outside. He couldn’t help but smile bitterly.
Although the Sky Patrol seemed unreliable, they were actually quite nice?
As he walked forward, he suddenly stopped.
Through the busy streets, he saw the pure and innocent-looking woman standing at the end of the street, her autumnal eyes fixed on him without blinking.
The busy streets and crowds had no effect on the two of them. Time seemed to stand still at that moment.
Lin Fengmian came to his senses and remembered the Heaven Patrol Tower behind him and asked in surprise, “Junior Sister Xia, why are you here?”
“Senior Brother, please follow me.”
As if waking from a dream, Xia Yunxi suddenly rushed forward and pulled Lin Fengmian into a deserted alley.
Lin Fengmian followed her in confusion, worried that he might run into Liu Mei around the corner.
However, out of trust in Xia Yunxi, Lin Fengmian did not resist or say anything.
When they reached a quiet alley, Xia Yunxi looked around cautiously, as if she was afraid of something.
Before Lin Fengmian could speak, Xia Yunxi spoke first, “Senior Brother, you must leave quickly. Senior Sister and the others are also in town.”
This was within Lin Fengmian’s expectations, since Xia Yunxi was here, Liu Mei and the others couldn’t be far behind.
He wanted to report to the Heavenly Patrolling Guards to capture Liu Mei and the others, but looking at Xia Yunxi, he couldn’t bear to do so.
Besides, the old man in the Heavenly Patrol Tower didn’t seem very upright, and it was hard to imagine what would happen to them if they fell into his hands.
“When did you all arrive?” Lin Fengmian asked.
Xia Yunxi whispered, “We arrived this afternoon. Senior Brother, why are you here so soon?”
Lin Fengmian and Wen Qinlin’s speed was faster than they had expected and they arrived before them.
Unfortunately, the airship hadn’t taken off yet, otherwise Lin Fengmian would have already left.
He sighed and asked, “You actually dared to follow me. Aren’t you afraid of being captured by the righteous Heaven Patrolling Guards?”
Xia Yunxi was confused, “It seems like the sect has some connections here. Senior Sister and the others don’t seem worried.”
“They are only afraid of the nearby Heaven Patrol Tower. They sent me specifically to check it out, and I didn’t expect to find Senior Brother inside.”
Lin Fengmian looked at her innocent and naive appearance and couldn’t help but laugh.
If you said that she was a demon from the Joyful Union Sect, no one would believe it. In fact, she was the right person to send for this task.
“Since they are suspicious of the Heaven Patrol Tower, why did you dare to come here? Aren’t you foolish?”
“But I was worried about Senior Brother. And I really did meet you, didn’t I?”
Xia Yunxi lowered her voice and said to Lin Fengmian, “Senior Brother, they are looking for you all over town. You must leave quickly.”
Lin Fengmian thought for a moment and solemnly said, “I will leave tomorrow on the airship. Even if Liu Mei and the others are strong, they wouldn’t dare to follow me, right?”
Xia Yunxi frowned, “Senior Brother, Senior Sister Chen and Senior Sister Mo are guarding the dock. You might not be able to board the ship.”
Lin Fengmian frowned. If it really came down to it, he would have to report to the Heaven Patrolling Guards after Xia Yunxi left.
Before he could speak, Xia Yunxi looked at him with burning eyes, “Senior Brother, I want to help you, but I don’t want to hurt Senior Sisters and the others.”
“How about this? Tomorrow, I’ll intentionally activate the jade pendant to lure them away, and you can take the opportunity to board the ship and leave.”
Lin Fengmian was speechless as he looked at this foolish girl who wholeheartedly helped him and asked, “What about you?”
“Me? I’ll be fine. At most, I’ll get a little punishment when I go back.” Xia Yunxi said with a bright smile.
Feeling a surge of emotion, Lin Fengmian suddenly hugged her and said, “Junior Sister Xia, run away with me!”
