Chapter 1062: Chapter 595: The Gate of Life and Death Chapter 1062: Chapter 595: The Gate of Life and Death “You’re saying that kid with the evil Qi might be related to the presence of evil Qi here?”

“Exactly. There is no such coincidence in this world, and evil Qi is not something commonly seen. It can’t keep appearing time and again without someone behind it, and I suspect it’s that kid. There’s a good chance it’s him.”

Hilly Chen fell silent for a moment.

“So what if it turns out to be him? What do you want to do?”

Hilly Chen seemed to think it was obvious.

“Naturally, we must investigate further. Evil Qi is not something to be taken lightly, and don’t forget who is related to it, Blood Nineteen, the Great Demon from a century ago. If there really is such a person threatening the human world again, shouldn’t you and I take responsibility?”

“To prevent such a catastrophe from happening, we must look into this person thoroughly.”

Simmon Leaf spoke with fervent conviction, looking the picture of righteous defiance. He didn’t notice that Hilly Chen next to him seemed to have his own secret concerns. Even though he remained silent, his eyes held a dark and distracted glimmer.

It wasn’t until Simmon Leaf nudged him that he seemed to snap back to reality.

“Why the sudden distraction? Do you think I’m wrong?”

“Oh, no. Nothing.”

Hilly Chen covered up the unusual look in his eyes, pretending nothing had happened.

“I was just pondering what you said, Simmon Leaf. Your speculation isn’t without reason, but honestly, following that battle between humans and demons, I have a rather good impression of that kid. I don’t think he’s that kind of person, and he shouldn’t be involved with Blood Nineteen.”

“Think about it. If he really had ties with that Great Demon, why would he help the human race and resist the Demon Race? Aren’t we being too hasty in deciding this?”

Hilly Chen had a good impression of him and didn’t want to rush to judgment.

Simmon Leaf seemed to want to say something but ultimately let out a sigh of resignation.

“I know you always admire the younger generation, but Hilly Chen, this is no joking matter. We’re talking about Blood Nineteen, the Great Demon Head who was sealed a century ago. We definitely can’t judge solely based on impressions.”

“And my considerations are not without reason, right?”

Hilly Chen was silent for a while, unable to refute this issue.

Simmon Leaf stroked his chin thoughtfully and then posed a question to Hilly Chen.

“How about this, Hilly Chen, let’s both visit the City Lord’s Mansion tomorrow. Since we can’t come to a conclusion through debate, why not go and see for ourselves?”

After a moment’s thought, Hilly Chen quickly agreed to the plan.

“Hmm, you’re right. Let’s do that.”

Better to meet that damned kid in person and suss him out a bit rather than keep guessing here. Maybe then we can come to a conclusion.

Simmon Leaf seemed somewhat worried, but Hilly Chen was much more relaxed about it.

“Now that we’ve got a plan, no need to keep that long face. Even if it really is Blood Nineteen, if we could seal him once, we can seal him a second or third time. He’s just a defeated foe. I really don’t know what you’re worried about. Once we meet the person tomorrow, you should be able to rest easy, right?”

Joyce Leaf smiled wryly, feeling that she might not be able to relax so soon.

The next day, the two swiftly arrived at the City Lord’s Mansion.

After exchanging pleasantries for a short while, they brought up their real purpose.

They wanted to see Logan.

The City Lord thought of what Logan had said to him upon his departure, and couldn’t help but grumble internally.

Could the trouble he mentioned have to do with these two powerhouses?

The City Lord pondered, momentarily getting lost in thought.

Fortunately, he remembered whom he was meeting with and quickly came back to his senses.

“May I know what you want with Logan?”

Hilly Chen and Simmon Leaf looked at each other without directly answering the question.

“We just have some matters to discuss, nothing serious.”

“Oh.”

The City Lord nodded, but he didn’t believe them one bit and became more vigilant.

Two such formidable figures specifically asking for Logan must mean it’s not a trivial matter.

The City Lord stroked his chin, thinking hard about a strategy, and soon he had an idea.

He looked at the two with an apologetic expression.

“I’m sorry, powerhouses, but Logan has resigned and left my service a few days ago. I have no idea where he has gone.”

“What, he’s gone?”

The two were shocked to hear this news, and a profound look crossed Simmon Leaf’s eyes.

He followed up with another question.

“Then, City Lord, did Logan mention where he was going?”

But the City Lord shook his head.

“I wouldn’t know. He didn’t tell me, so I really have no idea.”

Seeing that there was nothing to learn from the City Lord, both felt somewhat let down. Without lingering further, they soon took their leave.

“We understand. We’ll be going then. If you hear anything about Logan’s whereabouts, we hope you will inform us at once. We won’t leave the City Lord unrewarded.”

“Yes, yes, of course. If I get any news, I will certainly let you know everything.”

Seeing the earnestness in their attitude, the two didn’t make it hard for him.

Soon after, they left side by side.

Only then did the City Lord slap his chest and sit back down, letting out a long sigh of relief.

“Brother Logan, I’ve already saved your life. The rest is up to your own fate.”

He could only keep them in the dark for the moment.

Hopefully, Logan would be able to turn the tide.

On the other hand, once Hilly Chen and Simmon Leaf left, their faces were clouded over.

Hilly Chen muttered to himself.

“Didn’t expect him to leave at this time. Simmon Leaf, do you think he might have caught wind of something?”
