No one knows why his strength makes him tanned.
Song carried a large black pot, rolled up his sleeves, and cooked at. The broth was thick and white, its aroma rich but not greasy. While he cooked, he taught Sisi, who was watching intently by his side.
Seeing Yu Ziqing appear, Song laughed heartily like a native of Jinlan Mountain and gave a loud shout.
"Young master is back, quick, notify everyone, it's ti to dine, it's ti to dine, and I just cooked a big pot of soup."
"Lamb soup?" Yu Ziqing glanced at the large black pot.
"I don't eat lamb, not auspicious; this is fish from the East Sea, it just looks like a beast."
"Give a bowl first, I'll taste it for you."
Yu Ziqing held a bowl, standing nearby. The people around him quietly prepared for the feast, leaving space for Yu Ziqing and Song to talk.
"I see you seem restless, you're even teaching Wu Shuangge.
How about this, I've found a job for you; it matches your skills perfectly, why don't you give it a try?"
"What kind of job?"
"A job over at the Dadui side, you can surely handle it."
Song thought for a mont, suitable jobs for him were indeed not many.
"Riddler?"
"Yeah, the treatnt should be quite good. Since you're restless, why not try it? They're having so trouble now, it's outside Dadui, involving Evil Dao. Go help out."
Song glanced at Sisi in the distance and nodded.
"Alright, no problem helping out."
Yu Ziqing directly asked him, so Song knew it was necessary; otherwise, Yu Ziqing wouldn't co back just to talk about these things.
These days, he lived a truly comfortable life, with nothing to worry about.
Even though he still hadn't acknowledged his children, their relationship was pretty good.
He was already very satisfied, openly acknowledging them might make it worse.
Moreover, indeed he couldn't stay idle. Having worked as Jinyi Wei all his life, many things have beco instinctive, how could he simply let go of everything?
Yu Ziqing held his bowl, sipping the soup with a smile.
Can't deny, Song's cooking skills in making soup were quite impressive.
Three days later.
Song, now using the surna Yue, set off with a token given by Yu Ziqing.
He was instructed to be as discreet as possible and et at a certain location.
Song was without doubts and headed south into Dadui territory.
He traveled through the Gang Wind Layer, bypassed the area radiated by cities, and as he neared his destination, concealed himself and quietly descended in the wilderness.
He gazed at the distant mountains and the nearby river, his brows furrowed slightly.
Upon landing, he felt as if sothing glanced at him, but the sensing revealed nothing.
After Song concealed himself and continued forward, a River God discreetly peeked out a small half of its head from the river and looked at him.
The news quickly spread out, and in less than a stick of incense ti, the ssage of a Ninth Tier Strong infiltrating Dadui reached Jia Shisi's hands.
Jia Shisi saw the ssage, grinned from ear to ear about the Ninth Tier Strong coming from the north.
He strode out of the Riddler's office, personally heading to the door to greet him.
Once Song infiltrated the city, Jia Shisi's voice echoed in his ear.
"Mr. Yue, Jia has been waiting for a long ti, the wine is ward, just awaiting your esteed presence."
Song furrowed his brows, when did he get exposed?
Was it when he landed? Why hadn't he sensed anyone?
Is the Riddler's intelligence network that strong?
Arriving at the Riddler's office, Song saw Jia Shisi open the main door, personally welcoming him.
Song Chengyue appeared at the door, before paying respects, Jia Shisi warmly grasped his arm and pulled him inside.
"I've been waiting for you for ages; finally, Mr. Yue is here, please co in."
Jia Shisi dragged Song Chengyue into the office, and on either side of the pathway were hundreds of Riddlers, uniformly saluting, all speaking in a common language.
"Salute Lord Yue."
Even though Song Chengyue had seen many grand occasions, this setting left him sowhat bewildered.
He was rely here to help; no need for such excessive courtesy from the Riddlers, right?
Song Chengyue, sowhat confused, was taken inside, where the banquet was prepared. At this point, Song Chengyue couldn't possibly refuse to join.
After three rounds of drinks and five tastes of dishes, Jia Shisi spoke.
"Inviting Mr. Yue here is my lack of capability, and there's a matter needing Mr. Yue's intervention."
Jia Shisi briefly explained the matter, then looked at the other Riddlers.
"Whatever Mr. Yue decides, if any of you have questions, better ask them now. Those who dare to comply in appearance only, might as well find a place to bury themselves, saving the trouble of dealing with them."
The banquet hadn't ended yet when Jia Shisi's power slightly fluctuated.
"Suddenly sensing sothing, I..."
"Lord Jia, your cultivation is paramount, don't mind ." Song Chengyue quickly responded.
As soon as his sentence finished, Jia Shisi cupped his hands and instantly vanished.
At this point, Song Chengyue sensed that sothing seed amiss.
When the banquet ended, and he was brought to his office by the Riddlers, seeing the table demon, Song Chengyue finally confird things were utterly wrong.
Then, the Riddlers delivered a vast amount of information, placing it on his desk, each more polite and respectful than the last.
Once everyone exited, Song Chengyue patted the table.
"Alright, what's going on?"
A face appeared on the table, holding back laughter.
"Old Song, oh no, old Yue, you're here to help; how could we not give you authority?
Feel free to do whatever you want.
Rest assured, no one will hold back.
This case, without you, truly wouldn't be easy to investigate, since it involves another Divine Dynasty."
Others parachuting in might encounter issues, but with Emperor Dui and Jia Shisi as support, no one dares to say anything.
Looking at his familiar old partner, even the table demon relaxed quite a bit.
To be honest, it still felt sowhat intimidated by Jia Shisi, always sensing that if Jia Shisi's energy leaked slightly, it could slice it in half.
