Hearthstone.

Deacon of the Dark Veil.

In a secluded small attic, Li Yanbei was standing in front of the window leisurely sipping coffee.

Jester stood behind him, his face full of deference.

Li Yanbei took a sip of coffee gently, with a satisfied look on his face.

He tilted his head slightly, and then opened his mouth to praise,

"Big city stuff is good, coffee is so good. ”

Hearing this, Jester humbly said,

"Hearthstone is a bustling city among the fifth-tier cities, so it's not surprising to have these good things. ”

Li Yanbei smiled noncommittally.

"However, some good things are not necessarily available in prosperous cities, and many treasures like to hide in remote barren mountains and mountains. ”

Hearing the meaning of Li Yanbei's words, Jester smiled bitterly.

"Hiding in the mountains and forests away from the world, maybe you can survive for a longer time. If it grows in the middle of the city, it may be picked as soon as it sprouts. ”

"Oh......"

Li Yanbei nodded suddenly in realization, and then turned to look at Jester.

"It turns out that this is the truth, it seems that Lord Jester understands it very thoroughly. ”

His eyes shot at Jester, and the corners of Li Yanbei's mouth lifted an inexplicable smile.

"It's no wonder that Lord Jester, who has the strength of the prince level, would hide in the deacon hall of a first-class city, it turns out that you are to stay away from the hustle and bustle, and enjoy peace and tranquility in isolation from the world. ”

"Lord Deacon. ”

Jester leaned lower, his face full of helplessness.

"You'd better call me Jester, my lord...... I really don't feel comfortable listening to it. ”

Seeing Jester like this, Li Yanbei sneered.

He put his coffee on the table and put his hands on his shoulders.

"Before leaving, I was worried that you would be retaliated against by the bandits, but it seems that I was really careful. ”

Raising his eyebrows, Li Yanbei's face was full of laughter.

"With your strength, Lord Jester, I'm afraid that no bandit group in the world will dare to provoke you. ”

"Your Excellency. ”

Jester straightened up, looked at Li Yanbei sincerely, and said,

Jester's heartfelt words at the time of parting are still in Jester's heart. There is really a reason for this, and this is the only way to hide the strength. ”

Seeing that Jester's gaze didn't look like a fake, the ridicule on Li Yanbei's face dissipated.

He stared straight into Jester's eyes and said solemnly,

"Well, I treat you with sincerity, and I believe you will do the same to me. After all, it is thanks to you that I was able to get out of this time. ”

Hearing this, Jester hurriedly bowed and saluted.

"Your Excellency is humble, with your strength, it is not difficult to break out of the House of Elders, but it is only because I am worried that your identity will be exposed, so I have no choice but to show my strength. ”

Straightening up, Jester looked at Li Yanbei.

His gaze was sincere, and his tone was extremely sincere.

"If you have any doubts, ask me as many questions, and I will know everything. ”

Li Yanbei nodded.

"Well, since you still regard me as a friend, then I will treat you with sincerity. But I'm a little confused about when you set your sights on me. ”

Hearing this, Jester smiled more ugly than crying.

"My lord, I can't afford your 'staring' word. ”

"Well, I'll change the word. ”

Li Yanbei sneered.

"When did you notice me?"

Jester lowered his gaze, then whispered,

"I've noticed you since you came to your senses alone after you were cast a soul curse. ”

Li Yanbei was slightly stunned.

"Forbidden Soul Curse?"

Jester secretly glanced at Li Yanbei, and then hurriedly lowered his gaze.

"Hmm. ”

Spreading his hands, Li Yanbei looked puzzled.

"Is this amazing?"

"It's amazing. ”

Jester swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said,

"In this curse, the soul will be completely imprisoned, and the consciousness will be lost and will not wake up, which can only be unraveled by the caster's own blood. Even if the cultivator is higher than the caster, he can't break free himself, unless the difference in strength is too great. ”

Li Yanbei's brows furrowed.

"You noticed me for that alone, could it be that the caster had made some mistake and the curse was not completed?"

Jester shook his head slowly.

"The one who shot was the number one dark wizard in the dark curtain, and the strongest dark wizard in the Dark Empire after the great wizard of Matthews--- Kilrog. If you make a mistake, it's absolutely impossible. ”

Nodding, Li Yanbei continued,

"So just by awakening on my own, I've shown something extraordinary. ”

Jester barely managed to squeeze out a smile.

"Don't be surprised, my lord, I was also curious to see how the lord broke free from the curse, so I came to the Duchy of Vlad Kimir to find you. But who knew you wouldn't be able to stay in Hearthstone and run away to Brand again. Brand didn't have a deacon, so I had to settle down in Blackrock. ”

"I see, I figured it out. ”

Li Yanbei nodded suddenly in realization, and then laughed twice.

"You've been acting since the beginning, and that damn Snake has been cooperating with you. ”

At this point, he suddenly remembered the first time he went to the Black Rock City Deacon, Snake's attitude towards Jester.

As the chief deacon, his cultivation is unfathomable. But he spoke unusually calmly to Jester, and there was a bit of respect in his tone. Looking back now, is there a place where a chief deacon would be so polite to an unruly vice-deacon? So even if this Jester is a lot different from Snake's strength, he still has a place on this continent after all.

"Your uncle!"

Li Yanbei felt a burst of anger in his gut.

"You've already colluded to pull me into the shadows, and everything before that was just your conspiracy!"

Looking at Li Yanbei, whose face was gradually cold, Jester secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

After following Li Yanbei for so long, he knew that his deacon was really angry this time.

"Yanbei people, don't be angry first. ”

Qiang squeezed out a smile, and Jester approached Li Yanbei a little closer with a shy face.

"Listen to me explain it to you. ”

Li Yanbei waved his hand irritably, and then stared at Jester who was smiling with disgust.

"Don't give me this set, pretending to be a pitiful worm is your specialty. ”

Hearing this, Jester's smile gradually turned bitter.

"Your Excellency, you have wronged me. ”

He looked at Li Yanbei with a sad face, and then said slowly,

"Neither I nor Lord Deacon were premeditated, and it was really a complete accident that broke your identity. ”

Li Yanbei raised his eyebrows impatiently.

"Oh, tell me, how did you happen to break my identity, and how did you happen to pull me into the shadows?"

Jester's eyes were full of grievances.

"My lord, let's let go of this matter of how to break your identity, but you want to enter the dark curtain yourself. And you are afraid that the chief deacon will renege on his promise to give you gold coins every month, and that he will run faster than a rabbit. ”

As soon as these words came out, Li Yanbei was immediately choked.

He thought about it carefully, as if he was running quite fast at that time.

"You... Your uncle!"

After being stunned for a moment, Li Yanbei reacted suddenly.

He flicked his sleeves in anger, and his face was suffocated.

"Whoever is talking to you about money, don't divert the topic from me, and quickly and honestly explain your problem. Say, how do you know my strength?"

Seeing Li Yanbei's appearance, Jester's face wrinkled like a bitter gourd.

"My lord, if I do, you promise me not to be angry. ”

Li Yanbei pursed his lips.

"Less nonsense. If you want to take me back as a friend, just say it quickly!"

Seeing Li Yanbei asking so tightly, Jester knew that he couldn't do it if he didn't explain.

He breathed a sigh of relief, and then said cautiously to Li Yanbei,

"Do you remember those two little mice that ran to your castle?"

Li Yanbei was slightly stunned.

"I remember. ”

Jester licked his lips and whispered,

"I happened to be there when you slaughtered the two of them. ”

Li Yanbei tilted his head, looking unkind.

"Coincidentally?"

Grinning unnaturally, Jester swallowed.

"I'm here to find out how you broke free from the Forbidden Soul Curse, so when I learned that someone had hired a secret curtain to clean you up, I naturally went over to take a look, lest you fall for it. ”

The corners of his eyes twitched slightly, and Li Yanbei hated it so much that the roots of his teeth itched.

"What you say nicely is actually spying on me. So you can see all the methods I used at that time?"

Jester nodded.

"So I know, my lord, you are definitely not from the Dark Light Continent, you must be the Great Monk who has fallen here from the outer interface. ”

"Your uncle's. ”

Li Yanbei rolled his eyes fiercely.

"And then you informed Snake and teamed up to put on a play for me in Blackstone?"

Jester sneered and bent over.

"To be honest, at that time, Archdeacon and I were just trying to get acquainted with you, but I didn't expect you to actually join the Shadows, and it was really a blessing for me to be able to listen to your orders under your hands. has been following the adults for so long, and it is indeed a long experience, especially the raw devouring spirit pill without changing the color, which is really a five-body throw that the villain admires. ”

Thinking of the coercion he pretended to be in front of Jester at the beginning, Li Yanbei wailed in his heart.

I thought I was playing very chic, but who knew that the submissive guy in front of me at that time was actually a great monk in the distraction period.

Thinking of this, Li Yanbei suddenly had a thrill.

"Jester. ”

He looked at Jester in surprise, and suddenly remembered another question.

"With your special tenth-order primary strength, not to mention in the Dark Empire, even in the entire Dark Light Continent, you should be a figure with a head and a face, why have I never heard your name? And I haven't found any information about you in the dark curtain?"

The smile on Jester's face suddenly became a little strange, which made Li Yanbei a little confused.

"What? Could it be that you have something else to hide from me?"

The smile grew brighter and brighter, and Jester became more and more humble.

"My lord, in fact, my position is in the real core of the dark curtain, and it is quite famous in the downfall. ”

Li Yanbei looked puzzled.

"Oh, why haven't I heard of it?"

Jester blinked, then said cautiously,

"That's because adults only call me by name and never ask for my full name. ”

Li Yanbei was also slightly stunned, and seemed to have just reacted to this problem.

Because the name of the Dark Light Continent is too long and troublesome, Li Yanbei has been calling him Jester since the beginning, but he really hasn't asked his full name.

"Then you... What's your full name?"

Jester smiled stupidly, then whispered,

"His full name is Jester Kilrog. ”

"Kilrog?"

Li Yanbei tilted his head, and his head seemed to be a little familiar.

"I don't think I've heard this name before......"

Suddenly, Li Yanbei's whole body trembled violently.

He suddenly remembered the origin of the name, and understood why Jester knew the 'Forbidden Soul Curse' so clearly.

I also understand why Jester, this guy, hides his strength and comes thousands of miles to explore himself.

"You... You ......"

"Your uncle!"

"The No. 1 Dark Wizard in the Shadows!"

Li Yanbei pointed at Jester, jumped to his feet and scolded.

"The guy who cursed Lao Tzu!"
