Ye Wushen has only sealed the communication between inside and outside of Willow Leaf City, but not the internal communication within the city. So as long as Sikong Jing enters the city, he can use the Message Bird to communicate with everyone again.

This message was sent by Renyou.

But the specific source of the message was notified by Xiong Tingting from Wenxiang Pavilion.

It was regarding a guest at Wenxiang Pavilion looking for pleasure, and this guest was Ye Wukui’s grandson, Ye Luushi.

After crumpling the letter into pieces, Sikong Jing softly instructed the people on the ship: "First, send the merchant ship and the Split Armor Flying Scorpion back to the Batian Branch, and inform Leng Sha that I will return soon..."

After speaking, Sikong Jing vanished from the ship; he planned to visit Wenxiang Pavilion in person.

Because Xiong Tingting informed that...

Last night, Ye Luushi, in a drunken state, confessed to a girl at Wenxiang Pavilion that he was the one who forced Su Yue Immortal into the Holy Tomb Demon Cave, and this girl casually shared it as gossip with Xiong Tingting.

And because the matter involved Sikong Jing, it was reported to him.

Of course, Sikong Jing wanted to get to the bottom of it, and he also had some things to discuss with Xiong Tingting.

Soon he appeared inside Wenxiang Pavilion.

During the day, Wenxiang Pavilion was naturally not open for business, but some guests, after spending the night, would still be sleeping deeply inside.

Ye Luushi was one of them; he had been here for two or three days without going home.

Upon entering Wenxiang Pavilion, Sikong Jing first met Xiong Tingting.

The latter was not surprised and pointed to a building, saying, "Young Master Sikong, Ye Luushi is in that small building, and currently he is alone there, handle it however you like as long as you don’t make too much noise."

Sikong Jing nodded in thanks...

However, he did not act immediately but instead turned to Xiong Tingting and asked, "Wenxiang Boss, you’ve probably heard about the destruction of the Willow Leaf Holy Tomb, haven’t you?"

Xiong Tingting of course replied that she had heard. The incident of the Willow Leaf Holy Tomb had already spread throughout the city.

Especially since Willow Leaf Saint Manor sealed the city, making the matter even more heated. So Xiong Tingting replied, "It is said that a strong person in the Holy Martial Stage appeared in Imperial Dragon Mountain, but I don’t know if it’s true. The people in the city are jittery now."

Hearing this, Sikong Jing’s eyes flickered with brilliance...

Then he intently looked at Xiong Tingting and said, "It looks like the Qianwang Holy Tower hasn’t found you yet, but I guess they will come looking for you soon. When that happens, make sure you don’t say you have seen me."

Upon hearing this, Xiong Tingting was stunned and looked at Sikong Jing in confusion.

She wondered how they went from talking about the Willow Leaf Holy Tomb to the Qianwang Holy Tower so suddenly?

"Soon you will know..."

"In short, Wenxiang Boss, you never met me, nor do you know me. Do whatever the Qianwang Holy Tower asks you to do, exactly as we agreed before."

"We have never met, and I don’t need you to do anything for us. Just carry on as usual."

As she listened to Sikong Jing’s words, Xiong Tingting looked dazed again; she suddenly felt as if something big was about to happen.

"Of course, thank you for the matter of Ye Luushi, and also for showing the city weakness on my behalf."

With that said, Sikong Jing flickered and quietly landed in the small building Xiong Tingting had pointed to.

Xiong Tingting watched Sikong Jing’s disappearing figure with a silent bitter smile and said, "By accident, I’ve gradually gotten more entangled with Young Master Sikong; it’s quite dangerous indeed."

However, Xiong Tingting is inherently kind-hearted and understands gratitude. She had reached the Venerable Realm and no longer needed to serve powerful guests to progress, all thanks to the Cultivation Technique Sikong Jing had modified for her.

Unconsciously, she naturally kept leaning towards Sikong Jing because he gave her hope of rescuing her daughter.

At this moment, Xiong Tingting thought of something that made her body tremble all over: "Could it be that the Qianwang Holy Tower will come looking for me soon, as Young Master Sikong said?"

...

Meanwhile, Sikong Jing had already entered the small building.

As arranged by Xiong Tingting, there were no other girls or guests in the small building, only Ye Luushi.

As Sikong Jing approached the room where Ye Luushi was sleeping, he suddenly heard the latter’s voice saying, "Someone, I am now awake; get me a girl..."

Obviously, at this moment, Ye Luushi had just woken up.

However, his voice could no longer escape the small building because Sikong Jing had already sealed the room with a barrier.

As Sikong Jing reached the door, Ye Luushi called out again: "Bring me a girl quickly; are your ears deaf?"

Bang...

Just after he finished speaking, Sikong Jing pushed open the door and naturally saw Ye Luushi, shirtless inside.

The latter looked up at Sikong Jing and then arrogantly said, "I called for a girl, not a man; get out of here."

In his view, Sikong Jing must be a minor Protector of Wenxiang Pavilion or something.

Ye Luushi obviously didn’t know his doomsday had arrived.

At that moment, Sikong Jing walked over regardless and slowly sat down...

Ye Luushi, seeing this, naturally got angry and said, "Who told you to sit down? What the hell are you, get out immediately."

Nevertheless, Sikong Jing ignored him, leisurely poured himself a glass of wine, and when Ye Luushi was about to rage and take action, suddenly gave him a slap.

With a sound of a slap, Ye Luushi was sent flying immediately.

He then stared at Sikong Jing in disbelief and said, "What are you? Do you know who I am? My grandfather is Ye Wukui of Willow Leaf Saint Manor, and you dare to slap me?"

Clearly, he was stunned by the slap, but his arrogant nature flared up.

To this, Sikong Jing just gently shook the wine glass in his hand, then took a sip before saying, "How did Su Yue Immortal, or rather Ye Yuxian, end up in the Demon Cave? Can you tell me clearly?"

Upon hearing this, the previously frenzied Ye Luushi suddenly froze, and then said, "I... I don’t know what you’re talking about."

He suddenly felt a bit panicked...

Ye Luushi did not know who this person was in front of him, nor did he remember the drunken events of last night.

But he still knew the seriousness of the situation; he absolutely could not reveal this, as Liu Shizeng had sternly warned him.

"So you don’t know? I’ll soon make you know..."

With that said... Bam!

The wine glass in Sikong Jing’s hand suddenly shattered, and the broken ceramic shards all shot towards Ye Luushi, piercing his entire body. Sikong Jing then lightly clenched in midair.

In an instant, Ye Luushi let out a scream like a pig being slaughtered.

Of course, because the room was sealed with a barrier by Sikong Jing, Ye Luushi’s scream could not be heard outside.

...

At the same time, as Sikong Jing was forcing information out of Ye Luushi,

the Jade Pendant on Xiong Tingting’s waist suddenly flashed with a glow in Wenxiang Main Building; her expression suddenly changed.

"The Qianwang Holy Tower really summoned me." Xiong Tingting held the glowing Jade Pendant, speaking in a daze.

Sikong Jing had just warned her, and it unexpectedly happened so quickly.
