Urban All-Round Master

After Asura left, Lin Zifeng finally breathed a sigh of relief. Damn, women really should not be provoked casually.

When he got home, Beiming Yu found Lin Zifeng again, which surprised him. Could it be that Beiming Yu discovered something?

However, thinking about it again, Lin Zifeng felt relieved. What she should know, she would probably know.

”If I’m not mistaken, you must be the Judgement Angel, right?” Beiming Yu looked at Lin Zifeng with a sly smile, which made his body shiver. Damn, she guessed it quite accurately.

”Haha, Sister Beiming, you’re joking with me, aren’t you?” Lin Zifeng laughed awkwardly, not daring to reply directly to Beiming Yu.

”I know, you don’t want too many people to know you have another identity, right? In this world to maintain the balance of power, you don’t want too many people focusing their attention on you, right?” Beiming Yu understood Lin Zifeng’s intentions.

The reason Lin Zifeng needed to operate under another identity was merely to prevent all arrows from pointing at himself. Besides, given the current hype around the Holy Hall, if he acted under his true identity, he might attract unnecessary trouble. It would be better to work under another identity, target the Demon God Sect and other millennia-old sects, allowing the original heated attention on the Holy Hall to shift.

Of course, all this couldn’t escape Beiming Yu’s eyes.

”Seems like Sister Beiming really knows quite a lot.” Lin Zifeng pouted and smiled playfully, saying, ”Initially, I thought that besides me, no one else knew about this, but it turns out I underestimated you, Sister Beiming.”

”Don’t flatter me. This is easy to understand. Do you know where your biggest flaw is?”

”Where?” Lin Zifeng was curious. He had never revealed his identity as the Judgement Angel to anyone and was surprised at how much Beiming Yu knew.

”Judgement Angel!” Sister Beiming laughed, ”You couldn’t pick another name, so you chose Judgement Angel. Isn’t it like intentionally drawing attention to yourself? Besides, who doesn’t know your relationship with the Blazing Angel Organization? Using the Judgement Angel banner at this time naturally raises suspicions. Moreover, the factions you’ve stirred up mostly oppose the Holy Hall.

You stirred up the Demon God Sect, Qingchi Holy Land, Jiuxiao Holy Land, and Great Wilderness Holy Land. Besides you, who else do you think has such capability?” Beiming Yu walked a few steps with her hands behind her back, sparingly smiling as she stared into Lin Zifeng’s smiling eyes, grinning, ”Did I get it right, Young Master Lin?”

”Exactly right!” Lin Zifeng laughed heartily, ”Your analysis is spot on; however, I’m still puzzled. How did you know it was me just based on this?”

”Actually, I suspected initially, but...”

”But what?” Lin Zifeng was quite curious.

”You already admitted it, didn’t you,” Beiming Yu blinked.

”...”

Lin Zifeng was stunned, then smiled wryly, realizing he had admitted everything under her direct questioning. Sigh, being around a smart woman indeed isn’t always a good thing.

He smiled bitterly.

Clearing his throat, he said, ”Sister Beiming, this matter is significant, so please don’t spread it. I’m afraid I won’t be able to keep this identity if it’s exposed.”

”Don’t worry, I came just to confirm this, not to expose it. Besides, what good would it do me to expose it?” Beiming Yu smiled.

”By the way, how do you plan to deal with the Buddha Bone Relics?” Beiming Yu asked. Given the significant background of the Buddha Bone Relics, if not handled properly, it could bring disaster to the Holy Hall.

This was Beiming Yu’s true purpose for coming.

”I’ll keep it for now. Even if the Buddhist Sect comes looking, how would they know the Buddha Bone Relics are with me?” Lin Zifeng smiled, showing no intention of handing over the Shariputra.

These past few days, he tried absorbing the Buddha Bone Relics, but its devouring power was too vast, and he dared not rush it to avoid unwanted effects.

”Young Master Lin, I must remind you, the Buddhist Sect is powerful. Don’t provoke them unless absolutely necessary.”

Beiming Yu was worried, knowing that the Buddhist Sect shouldn’t be trifled with. If a clash does occur, the current strength of the Holy Hall would be utterly inadequate against them.

”Who says I’m going to provoke the Buddhist Sect?” Lin Zifeng glared at her, proudly saying, ”The Buddha Bone Relics were a gift from the Demon God Sect. Even if the Buddhist Sect wants it back, it’s they who should confront the Demon God Sect. Furthermore, even if they find me, what can they do? The Buddhist Sect’s true intent in retrieving the relics isn’t the relics themselves but to find the culprit from back then.”

”You mean the Buddhist Sect just wants to find the person who left the blood debt years ago?” Beiming Yu’s brow furrowed slightly.

”One Buddha Bone Relic cannot provoke the Buddhist Sect’s rage. If I hand it over, it might seem like a guilty admission, wouldn’t it?” Lin Zifeng shook his head.

After serious consideration, he decided he wouldn’t give the Buddha Bone Relics to the Buddhist Sect lightly. If given, it might be okay if reason prevailed, but if illogical, under the Demon God Sect’s instigation, he could become the scapegoat.

For now, as Lin Zifeng hadn’t fully absorbed the Buddha Bone Relics, he had no intention of targeting the Demon God Sect. After all, the true culprit was the Demon God Sect, and eradicating them too soon would unfairly blame the Holy Hall.

”Alright, I’m just here as an observer to remind you. How you handle it is up to you and none of my business.” Beiming Yu understood Lin Zifeng’s decision was firm and didn’t have any better advice. Words were unnecessary.

”Oh, by the way. Sister Beiming, any news on the Supreme Emperor?” Mentioning the Supreme Emperor, Lin Zifeng was still a bit uneasy, particularly concerned about this formidable figure.

”These days, the Supreme Emperor seems to have vanished without much news. However, the Taishang Sect’s Holy Daughter, the Taihuang Demon, was recently seen near the Holy Hall. This woman is ruthless and sinister, and I’ve been organizing people to investigate her whereabouts. Once found, she must be eliminated to avoid future problems,” Beiming Yu said.

”Good. This Taihuang Demon woman has survived many of our encounters; her luck must be exceptional. If we meet again, no matter what, we must eliminate her!” Lin Zifeng declared fiercely, a flash of ruthless light in his eyes.

Leaving the Taihuang Demon alive would only be a future threat that must not be allowed.
