64: Chapter 64 Imprisonment?

"This meat tastes pretty good."

Lin Ming sat in a restaurant by the street, praising the meal before him.

Delicacies made from the meat of Yao Beasts indeed tasted excellent; perhaps he could secretly learn the recipe and recreate it himself later.

"A pity for my Junior Sister, though."

Lin Ming shook his head.

His Junior Sister wasn't very interested in things like shopping and was currently cultivating alone in the inn, so she couldn't enjoy these delicacies.

However, as her Senior Brother, he naturally couldn't let her miss out.

After all, these foods made from Yao Beast meat were also somewhat helpful for Su Lianxue's cultivation in the Body Tempering Realm.

"Waiter, bring another serving of everything, to go."

Lin Ming then called out to the waiter.

"Coming right up, guest! Please wait a moment."

The waiter responded very enthusiastically.

A short while later,

Lin Ming walked out of the restaurant carrying a food box.

Just as he was about to return to the inn, his path was blocked once again.

"Friend."

Zhang Zhihui looked at Lin Ming and took the initiative to greet him.

"Is there something I can help you with, Young Master Zhang?"

Lin Ming said with a calm expression upon seeing Zhang Zhihui.

Regarding his purpose, Lin Ming didn't even need to use his brain to know what the other party wanted to do.

Nine times out of ten, it was still because of Su Lianxue.

"So you know about my Zhang Family now."

Zhang Zhihui spoke in a slightly playful tone.

Since he knew about the Zhang Family, things would be easy to handle.

"I know a little."

Lin Ming responded with a smile.

"If you know, then why haven't you introduced your Junior Sister to Young Master Zhang yet?"

Behind him, a man spoke in a haughty and arrogant tone.

The movements of Lin Ming and Su Lianxue were naturally under their control; they knew both were staying at the inn.

But Su Lianxue had been staying inside the inn without stepping out, which made things a bit difficult for Zhang Zhihui.

After all, the inn they were staying at actually had some background, to the point where he couldn't just go there to find someone directly.

However, knowing that Lin Ming often went out, Zhang Zhihui decided to start with him.

"Shut up."

Zhang Zhihui's expression suddenly turned cold.

He turned his head and shot a glance at the man.

Noticing Zhang Zhihui's icy gaze, the man instantly shut his mouth, not daring to say another word.

"I would like to get to know your Junior Sister. Could you introduce us?"

Zhang Zhihui then said to Lin Ming with a Face full of smiles.

"Young Master Zhang, it's a pity, but my Junior Sister isn't interested in you."

Lin Ming shook his head.

Afterward, he stepped past Zhang Zhihui and left directly.

This caused Zhang Zhihui's smile to freeze.

"So you're not going to give me Face?"

Zhang Zhihui said coldly.

Immediately after, several of his lackeys surrounded Lin Ming.

"Young Master Zhang, surely you're not going to make a move against me in broad daylight?"

Lin Ming looked at Zhang Zhihui with a playful smile and said.

"This Young Master is naturally not that kind of person."

Zhang Zhihui said.

Although he had the Zhang Family behind him, it didn't mean he was lawless in Tianyuan City; after all, the Zhang Family hadn't reached the point of being able to cover the sky with one hand.

If he really dared to act in public, his old man would probably hang him from a beam and whip him.

He wouldn't do something so disadvantageous to himself.

But that didn't mean he had no way to deal with Lin Ming.

For outsiders who didn't give him Face, he had plenty of ways to handle them.

"Isn't this Young Master Zhang?"

At that moment, a group of people in uniforms walked out and appeared before Zhang Zhihui and the others.

The leader spoke to Zhang Zhihui with a somewhat fawning expression.

"You've come at the perfect time, Captain Wei. I suspect this person is related to Demonic Cultivators. Please take him back and investigate him thoroughly."

Zhang Zhihui smiled when he saw the newcomer appear.

He was just thinking about what method to use to deal with Lin Ming, this uncooperative fellow.

"Demonic Cultivator!"

Wei Tao's expression immediately became serious.

But the people behind him were indifferent to this; they all knew what kind of person their captain was.

They also knew what kind of person this Young Master of the Zhang Family was.

Related to Demonic Cultivators?

With this Young Master Zhang's abilities, if he could discover the tracks of a Demonic Cultivator, the sun would have to rise from the west.

Many people looked at Lin Ming with pitying eyes.

They could only say this poor man didn't know where he had offended Zhang Zhihui, resulting in such a label being slapped directly onto him.

"Since it's related to Demonic Cultivators, then come back with us for a proper investigation."

Wei Tao said to Lin Ming with an unfriendly look.

"Just because he says I'm related to Demonic Cultivators, I am?"

Lin Ming asked in return.

Good heavens, he's just slapping the label of Demonic Cultivator on my head; they really know how to play.

"Young Master Zhang is a citizen of our Tianyuan City and would not treat the city's safety as a joke. Please come with me. If you have no connection to Demonic Cultivators, we will let you leave."

Wei Tao spoke with reasoned arguments.

But in Lin Ming's eyes, this was nothing more than a set of rhetoric to lock him up.

"Exactly. If you really have no connection to Demonic Cultivators, this Young Master will personally apologize to you."

Zhang Zhihui said with a hypocritical Face.

In Tianyuan City, manipulating an outsider like you is the simplest thing in the world.

What Senior Brother and Junior Sister? They're probably just Disciples from some small, insignificant sect.

"And if I say I won't cooperate?"

Lin Ming said.

"Then it seems very likely that you are indeed related to Demonic Cultivators."

Wei Tao's expression also turned cold.

Not cooperating?

Then he would make this charge stick.

It just so happened they were currently searching for the whereabouts of Demonic Cultivators,

and would rather kill a hundred by mistake than let one go.

Plus, since this was someone Zhang Zhihui had designated, Wei Tao naturally wanted to handle the matter beautifully.

"Friend, I advise you to cooperate. Opposing Tianyuan City is opposing Yuanxu Mountain."

Behind Zhang Zhihui, the man who had been unfriendly to Lin Ming from the start continued.

Opposing their Tianyuan City was opposing Yuanxu Mountain.

Today, they were determined to get Lin Ming.

"Fine, I'll go with you."

Lin Ming thought for a moment and temporarily decided to go with them.

He wanted to see what other tricks they had, and to what extent this Tianyuan City was controlled by these noble families.

Slapping the label of Demonic Cultivator on someone's head so casually.

"Help me entertain this friend properly."

Seeing this, Zhang Zhihui smiled.

Dealing with an outsider like you was truly an easy task.

"Take him, let's go."

Wei Tao naturally understood Zhang Zhihui's meaning and immediately signaled others to watch Lin Ming and take him away.

Just like that, for the first time since coming to this world, Lin Ming was locked in a dungeon.

"Go send word to that beauty. If she wants to save her Senior Brother, tell her to come find me."
