Chapter 2942

Hui Yu, I, this old man, am actually on your side.

Third Elder also stopped teasing Hui Yu, grinning, but upon hearing this, Hui Yu didn't believe a word.

Although I don't know how Third Elder saw through these things, getting him to admit he has ties with the Human Race, even that he's already a traitor, is absolutely impossible.

Who can casually admit to something like this? If it's proven, not only him but his whole family would have no place to bury their dead—maybe even worse than death.

So, even with the words having gone this far, Hui Yu still feels Third Elder is just trying to trick him.

Without even thinking, Hui Yu immediately shook his head, feigning a clueless look.

"What is Third Elder saying? I, your subordinate, completely don't understand."

As soon as those words were spoken, Third Elder's smile froze; seeing Hui Yu's innocent expression, he obviously knew what he was thinking.

This guy doesn't believe him, thinking he's being tricked.

Thinking of this, Third Elder couldn't help but twitch his mouth; I've spoken the truth and yet no one believes me—am I sick, going through all these twists and turns with you?

If you weren't one of us, I'd have already sent you off with Bai Yu; there are plenty of ways to pry open your mouth.

Looking at Hui Yu like this, if we can't produce even a bit of substantive evidence, this guy would probably never admit it, even if beaten to death.

But now we're truly our own people; Third Elder couldn't possibly really kill Hui Yu.

Yet when leaving the Human Race's Immortal City Beyond the Heavens, Third Elder didn't think to take any token or such.

Right now, I really have nothing on me that can prove what I'm saying.

"Hui Yu, I, this old man, am truly on your side."

Full of complex feelings, Third Elder spoke again, his attitude sincere, his tone earnest.

But regarding this, Hui Yu still wasn't buying it, continuing to feign innocence as he spoke.

"Third Elder, I, your subordinate, truly don't understand what you're saying; we were originally on the same side."

"What I mean by 'on the same side' is not this 'same side,' but being on the same side as the Human Race."

Third Elder was also getting frustrated from being told this, but as soon as those words came out, Hui Yu instead straightened his face, speaking with an angry expression.

"Third Elder, don't spout nonsense; the Feather God Tribe and the Human Race are enemies—how could we be on the same side?"

"You………………."

Looking at Hui Yu's appearance, if I didn't know the truth, Third Elder would really think this guy was a loyal subject.

We're all damn traitors—what are you and I pretending here for?

Although that's what I think in my heart, there's no way to make Hui Yu believe it right now—this is fucked up.

Seeing Hui Yu's righteous and stern demeanor, Third Elder was so angry he blew his beard and glared.

But suddenly, Third Elder seemed to think of something: "Right, when he left, didn't Ye Zhangqing give him thirty packs of dry rations?"

Back when they were in the Immortal City Beyond the Heavens, those Feather God Tribe members had told him that Hui Yu and the other person had also eaten Ye Zhangqing's food.

Since they've eaten it, they certainly recognize the dry rations; moreover, these rations were personally made by Ye Zhangqing, a unique item in the world, and can completely serve as a token.

Thinking of this, Third Elder unconsciously grinned, but Hui Yu, seeing that, still feigned a cold tone.

"What are you laughing at, Third Elder?"

His smile froze; seeing Hui Yu still putting on an act here, Third Elder spoke unhappily.

"That's about enough; I, this old man, am not joking with you."

"Third Elder, I, your subordinate, am not joking with you either."

"You…………… forget it, just look yourself at what this is."

Saying that, Third Elder directly took out a pack of dry rations from his person; the moment Hui Yu saw it, he indeed froze, his expression changing sharply.

His eyes widened round; obviously he recognized it at a glance; seeing that, Third Elder's smile appeared again.

Now you should believe it, right? In this world, besides Ye Zhangqing, who could make these dry rations?

Even if the appearance could be imitated, the taste—surely the taste couldn't be faked.

I thought producing the dry rations would naturally convince Hui Yu, but the next second, I saw a chill crease his eyes as he coldly demanded.

"What did you do to him?"

"Huh???"

This time his angry shout was not just an act like before; it came from the depths of his heart—Hui Yu was truly angry.

He naturally recognized these as Ye Zhangqing's dry rations; the problem is how they ended up in Third Elder's hands.

The two of them should never have met; Third Elder had no way to obtain Ye Zhangqing's dry rations.

But now that he has them, it shows Third Elder has come into contact with Ye Zhangqing.

Given Third Elder's temperament, Ye Zhangqing is probably in more danger than safety now.

Thinking of this, Hui Yu can hardly stay calm: "You damn killed Ye Zhangqing—where is he supposed to get his meals from now?"

You damn kill people without even using your brain?

The more he thought, the more Hui Yu's anger flared, and his gaze toward Third Elder grew increasingly hostile.

This old bastard is practically asking for death—he even dares to kill Ye Zhangqing.

Noticing Hui Yu's oddness, Third Elder first froze, then immediately opened his mouth to explain.

"No, you've got it wrong; I, this old man, didn't do anything to Ye Zhangqing; I'm telling the truth—we're on the same side—how could you………………"

"You even know his name?"

Obviously he didn't take in Third Elder's explanation; in Hui Yu's ears, all he heard was this old bastard saying Ye Zhangqing's name—doesn't that prove anything?

Immediately, Hui Yu couldn't help but question.

"What exactly did you do to him?"

"I, this old man, didn't do anything to him; he's fine and sound in the Immortal City Beyond the Heavens."

At this moment, Third Elder only felt his scalp tingling; this idiot is simply brain‑dead—how can he not understand human speech?

These rations were personally delivered to him by Ye Zhangqing, so how is it that this blockhead just won't believe it?

Seeing this idiot clench his fists until they were rock-hard, Third Elder's eyelids twitched, and he hurriedly spoke up to explain.

Calm down, everything I'm saying is true.

This guy looks like he wants to beat him up, and Third Elder felt numb.

Fortunately, as Third Elder kept explaining, Hui Yu gradually calmed down, and in the end he looked at Third Elder with a doubtful expression.

Is what Third Elder said really true? You and I are really the same?

That's definitely the case.

Well then, since you've been to the Human Race's Immortal City Beyond the Heavens, let me ask you: after entering the Immortal City Beyond the Heavens, what's the name of the eighth street running across?

Huh???

Faced with Hui Yu's questioning, Third Elder initially thought this idiot had finally opened his mind.

But as his words fell, Third Elder was completely dumbfounded—what the hell is this all about?

How would I know what the eighth street running across is called?

Looking at Hui Yu's scrutinizing expression, Third Elder took a deep breath and then, suppressing his anger, spoke.

Damn it, I went to discuss cooperation, not to sightsee—can't you ask a proper question?

Third Elder doesn't even know this?

Damn it, how would I know where to go?
