C221 An Inexplicable Connection

Zhong Yaoguang did not seem to recognize Ye Xiaotian and Ye Xiaotian. He was very happy to have received Ye Xiaotian and Ye Xiaotian's men, who were not weak in martial arts. He waved his hand and asked Ye Xiaotian and Ye Xiaotian to follow the group. Then he laughed and laid down in the coffin.

No matter how Zhong Yao Guang moved, the four strong men who were carrying the coffin did not move at all. After Zhong Yao Guang returned to the coffin, the four of them continued forward with indifferent expressions.

Ye Xiaotian and the other two also followed the group and left. When the group completely disappeared at the end of the street, the people in town returned to normal, as if nothing had happened just now.

The group walked to the end of the street and turned into a remote alley. There was only one house in the alley, and it looked like a haunted house.

Just as they walked to the front door of the house, the door suddenly opened by itself. A gust of cold wind blew against them, and there was even a faint rotten smell mixed in the wind.

"Please follow me" Ye Xiaotian and the other man had just stepped into the mansion when they were stopped by a maid who was waving paper money around.

Ye Xiaotian and the servant girl followed behind the servant girl. The servant girl led them to the study.

"Please wait for a moment. The hall master will be here soon. " The servant girl left after saying that.

Qu Liushang casually looked at the books on the bookshelf, then shook his head and sat beside Ye Xiaotian.

"What is it? Different from what you like?" Ye Xiaotian asked playfully.

"Not exactly. This person is a lowly person with low interests. " Qu Liushang said softly.

When the two of them heard the footsteps, they stopped talking and waited patiently.

"Haha, you have waited for a long time. " The door was suddenly opened. Yaoguang stood at the door and laughed.

Although he had a smile on his face, it looked more like he was crying.

"Master Yaoguang is too polite. " Qu Liushang said politely.

"Since the two of you have decided to follow me, I will not treat you badly. I won't hide it from the two of you. Although I am the hall master of Bright Moon Tavern, I am only borrowing their power to recruit talents like the two of you. When I am strong enough, I will start a new life. When I become an overlord, everything in the world will be ours. Haha. " Yaoguang seemed to want to use his honesty to gain the trust of Ye Xiaotian and Jiang Chen.

Ye Xiaotian was filled with doubts in his heart. Since he was on the Bright Moon Tavern's must-kill list, why didn't the master of the Bright Moon Tavern know him? And it seemed like he really wanted to accept the two of them.

"We have already understood the master's ambition, but the current situation of the Bright Moon Tavern doesn't seem to be good. " Qu Liushang said with slight hesitation.

"Hmm? Is that the case?" Yaoguang was very surprised. In the eyes of Ye Xiaotian and Yaoguang, their expressions became even more strange.

Yaoguang Zhong also noticed their strange gazes and could not help but explain. "In fact, Lou Zhong gave me an extremely secret mission. Because of this mission, I have been here for two years. During these two years, I've been working hard to manage my own power, so I don't really care about the situation in the outside world. "

Ye Xiaotian and Qu Liushang looked at each other, seemingly understanding why Yaoguang didn't recognize them.

"Can you tell me about the current situation?" Yaoguang looked at Ye Xiaotian and Qu Liushang and asked.

Only then did Qu Liushang explain the general situation of the outside world. However, he omitted some obscure topics.

Yaoguang narrowed his eyes after hearing this. He seemed to be thinking.

After a long time, he opened his mouth, and his eyes seemed to have some excitement, "Actually, the current situation isn't very bad for me. Do you know the once prominent Nangong family?"

"Nangong family?" Qu Liushang pretended to know nothing and asked curiously.

"It's normal that you don't know about it. In the past, the Nangong family was so powerful that it was able to oppress the current Bright Moon Tavern. Unfortunately, it's just a family after all, and the internal conflicts are intensifying day by day. In addition, the Inch Light Sword that was used to command all the disciples of the Nangong family was stolen, causing the family to be torn into pieces. Until now, only a few people knew of its name. The mission given by the building is to take back the Inch Light. "

Yaoguang's words made Qu Liushang frown. He knew what the Inch Light represented in the Nangong family, but he didn't know what the relationship between the Inch Light and the Bright Moon Tavern was.

"According to what the hall master said, the Inch Light is a treasure of the Nangong family. Why would the Bright Moon Tavern want it?" Qu Liushang asked tentatively.

"I don't know the reason behind this either. " Yaoguang shook his head without hiding anything.

"I have formed an oath with a branch of the Nangong family. When they find the Inch Light, I will help them seize it and unify the Nangong family. The Nangong family will help me seize the world!"

Ye Xiaotian and Qu Liushang finally understood why the Bright Moon Tavern would help a family that had lost its power. It turned out that it was only Yaoguang who had made the decision.

"Don't tell me that the pavilion master is worried that the people of the Nangong family will go back on their word?" Qu Liushang asked.

"Haha, a mere Nangong family. If they aren't willing to help me, then I will naturally hand this inch of light to them. I'm sure they will also receive a lot of rewards. No matter what the outcome is, I will be in an absolutely advantageous position. " Yaoguang was sitting on a chair with a calm expression, totally not putting the Nangong family in his eyes.

"Haha, Hallmaster is a wise man. I admire you, I admire you. " Qu Liushang flattered.

"To tell you the truth, the Inch Light has appeared a few days ago. However, the owner of this sword is quite outstanding. His martial arts is on par with mine. Plus, the people of Nangong family are watching from the side. I'm afraid that they have ulterior motives, so I need both of you to help me with the formation. " Yaoguang said.

"So what? Don't worry, Hall Master. " Qu Liushang said confidently.

"Alright, alright. Both of you, please rest for a while. I will inform you when I need you. " Yaoguang Zhong nodded his head in satisfaction.

Ye Xiaotian and Qu Liushang followed a maid to the guest room where they were resting. Ye Xiaotian quietly sighed in relief after the maid left.

"What do you plan to do?" Ye Xiaotian looked at Qu Liushang and asked.

"Initially, I just wanted to find out about Nangong Rang through them, but it seems like Nangong Rang hasn't fallen into their hands yet. Furthermore, this inch of light is related to the Bright Moon Tavern, how can we not interfere? " Qu Liushang's eyes sparkled, as if he had already seen the outcome of everything.

"Do you believe what Yaoguang said?" Ye Xiaotian absolutely did not believe that Yaoguang would be honest with someone he had just met not long ago.

"Of course not. His words were half true and half false. Of course, he could not be completely honest. But at least the connection between the Inch Light and the Bright Moon Tavern wasn't fabricated by him. After all, only a few people in the martial world know about the Inch Light. If he casually fabricated it, he wouldn't say that the Inch Light was related to the Bright Moon Tavern. After all, no one has ever mentioned the two at the same time. " Qu Liushang said with a confident smile.
