Chapter 1 The Cloaked Man's Smile

The cloaked man finally smiled, "A skilled strategist plans for the situation, a skilled planner sees the distant future."

"I don't understand," Lieutenant Stephen frowned, then said, "What's with that Ju Mang? He has a ridiculous number of master-level items, and I can't kill him. His Lingjing ID isn't Ju Mang!"

The cloaked man frowned instantly. "Tell me the details!"

Stephen Simpson described the details of last night's battle.

After listening, the cloaked man remained silent for a long time, like a statue.

Lieutenant Stephen asked with a grim expression, "Did you think of something?"

The cloaked man's voice hissed, "I remembered someone who has already died, I hope it's not who I think it is! You don't need to worry about him. The leader's plan is more important. No matter what, his level is too low. This is a critical moment, there's no need to waste energy on him!"

After sending off the Chairman, Zhang Yuanqing went to the cafeteria for breakfast and gathered the Undying Return saints in the bedroom. Hidden by soundproofing items, he told everyone the details of last night's battle.

Guan Ya and Sun Miaomiao were covered in cold sweat, feeling both scared and resentful!

Zhao Cheng隍, Asano Ryo, and Tianxia Guihuo were grateful that the gang leader had survived, and also marveled at his ability to participate in battles between peak masters!

Back then, we were still holding hands through the Slaughter Instance together. My little friend, now you've secretly put on a handsome suit and combed your hair like an adult!

Only Hong Ji-ge patted Zhang Yuanqing's shoulder vigorously, saying "Hou Sai Lei," and then saying, "Surviving a great disaster brings good fortune. We're having congee for lunch, he's paying!"

Zhang Yuanqing looked at everyone and said solemnly, "After this battle, even if my identity isn't exposed, it's close. But it doesn't matter. My mission to infiltrate the Free Federation is over. It's a partial failure, but not a complete failure because I made some contributions and obtained too much classified information from the Free Federation, including the truth about the Advent of the Demon Seed!"

"Also, luring Catherine out and killing an eighth-level demon. After Catherine's identity is exposed, Donna's lovers will definitely be transferred and investigated, which will help the Order faction eliminate hidden dangers."

"Next, I'll probably stay in the gang instance for a while to cultivate in seclusion and prepare for the Slaughter Instance at the end of the year!"

I don't need to do the level 11 instance. The Slaughter Instance is in mid-December. The mission in New York City is basically over, and he has nothing to do!

Originally, he could have a hand in the competition and assassination between masters, but in last night's arena battle, he exposed too much information and too many cards. Fearing that his identity would be discovered by the evil faction and targeted, he simply adopted the Chairman's suggestion to hide in the instance to cultivate the Pure Yang Cleansing Body Record and strive to accumulate power for his promotion to Night Wanderer!

"When we're not around, try to keep a low profile. You can choose to return home, or you can wander around the Free Federation!"

After giving a few more instructions, Zhang Yuanqing dismissed his teammates and was about to enter the gang instance when his phone "dinged" with a text message.

Zhang Yuanqing replied, "What's up?"

The Chairman didn't reply!

A quarter of an hour later, Zhang Yuanqing received a text message from an unknown number: "Mr. Ju Mang, I'm a member of the Benevolent Society. The Chairman asked me to arrange a meeting with you. The address is 24 Hans Street!"

Zhang Yuanqing's expression immediately became strange. 24 Hans Street was the first house he rented in New York City, the house of the landlady's family. The person contacting him was the landlord, Cao Qing!

Zhang Yuanqing knew that Cao Qing was a Void profession, and a hidden pawn cultivated by the Chairman, but he didn't expect that this landlord was not a member of the Merchant Guild but a member of Mom's Benevolent Society.

So I'm the young master? You even dare to collect rent from the young master!!!!

Zhang Yuanqing replied, "I'll be right there!"

He put away his phone, put on a mask and sunglasses, and used Star Escape to leave the bank building!

Alternating between Wind Riding and Dream Walk, Zhang Yuanqing arrived at 24 Hans Street in just over ten minutes!

"Knock knock," he knocked on the anti-theft door of room 401 with practiced ease!

Footsteps came from behind the door, the anti-theft door opened, and Zhang Yuanqing saw the landlord with sparse hair and a small belly again.

He carefully looked at Zhang Yuanqing, sizing up this legendary figure from the country from behind the mask and sunglasses, and diligently invited him into the house. "Please come in, please come in."

Zhang Yuanqing passed through the entrance hall and came to the living room, casually noticing that only Cao Qing was home!

He was currently wearing the Ju Mang persona, so he didn't reminisce with the landlord and directly asked, "Chairman, what's the arrangement!"

Cao Qing took out a plastic sealed bag from his pocket. Inside the bag were a few strands of hair and a few pieces of paper towels. "The Chairman wants you to help find this person, or confirm his life or death!" Cao Qing said!

Find someone? Zhang Yuanqing understood the Chairman's meaning, took the sealed bag, and opened his item bar to summon the Red Dance.

"Da da da!!"

The Red Dance shoes happily circled around their master. Zhang Yuanqing stuffed the sealed bag into the inside of the Red Dance shoes and issued a tracking order.

The Red Dance shoes stood still.

They were stunned for a few seconds, then shook their shoes and threw out the sealed bag. They couldn't track the target. He's already dead!!!!!

Zhang Yuanqing looked at Cao Qing and said, "Dead!"

"Dead!!!!" Cao Qing sighed. "I knew it!"

Zhang Yuanqing asked curiously, "Who are you looking for? If I can ask!"

Cao Qing shook his head. "I only know his name is Abe Marshall. If you want to know more, you can ask the Chairman yourself!"

Zhang Yuanqing nodded, bid farewell, and left impatiently to find a place to pay the price for dancing and appear in the Mo Sect's Mechanical City!

At the foot of the mountain, in the dense forest, the Three Dao Mountain Goddess was sitting cross-legged on a bluestone. Zhang Yuanqing and Yin Yao sat opposite her.

The former humbly asked for guidance!

"Goddess, what is the profound meaning of divine power?"
