Reborn as the Strongest Immortal Cultivator in Modern Times
Chapter 163 Promise
Song Tai nodded slightly, then said slowly, "We are already friends, so I won't hide anything from you. Actually, I am on a mission from my sect to go out and train. I also have another task: to find the sect's token. If I can find it, I will be ranked first in this training and will be able to obtain more cultivation resources. The reason I chose to work at Lingtian Company is because I discovered clues about the token here."
Ye Yu raised an eyebrow and pressed on, "Oh? Is this Lingtian Company the building whose formation I destroyed? Is what you're looking for related to those Japanese people?"
Song Tai glanced at Ye Yu and asked, "Have you heard anything about the 'Black Jade Lotus' lately?"
Ye Yu was secretly startled, but on the surface she remained calm and replied, "I have heard of it. It is said that this thing appeared in the Chi family before. So recently, many people in the Qianmen have been out searching for its whereabouts. Is the token you are looking for related to it?"
Song Tai nodded: "You may not know, but the Chi family took this Black Jade Lotus from the Cheng family. Back then, our sect gave the Cheng family a token. If the Cheng family came to our sect with this token, the sect would grant them a request."
"When we learned that the Cheng family had been wiped out, the elders of the sect instructed us disciples who had come out for training to search for the token as much as possible to prevent it from falling into the hands of people with ill intentions. Through several investigations, we discovered that the Chi family and the Japanese were behind the Cheng family's annihilation. However, even the Japanese who were connected to the Chi family were nowhere to be found after the Chi family was wiped out. Only a scout once said that he had seen one of the Japanese at the Hishida Company."
Ye Yu looked at Song Tai with surprise, thinking to herself: The sect behind Song Tai is so powerful that it can investigate to this extent.
After a while, she spoke up, "So you went to work at Hishida Company to take this opportunity to explore whether there are any relevant clues?"
Song Tai nodded slightly: "That's right! At first, I wasn't entirely sure about this matter. But after witnessing this formation and your battle with those two Japanese, I'm pretty sure that the Cheng family's massacre was definitely orchestrated by the owner of the Hishida Company."
Hearing this, Ye Yumei thoughtfully asked, "So, how can I help you?"
Song Tai pursed his lips, hesitated for a moment, and then slowly said, "The boss of Hishida Company is always guarded by a master, and it's difficult for me to get close to him on my own. However, with your skills, you should be able to break through his defenses. So I think you can accompany me to find the boss of Hishida Company, Oda Ikeno."
Song Tai's words struck a chord with Ye Yu.
Although their goals differed slightly, they both ultimately aimed to target this man named Oda Ikeno.
Moreover, if he could help Song Tai achieve his wish, Song Tai would inevitably owe him a favor, which would be a win-win situation!
Thinking of this, Ye Yu deliberately pretended to be deep in thought, and after a moment of silence, finally nodded in agreement: "Okay, then I'll help you out. Tell me your plan first."
Upon hearing Ye Yu's agreement, Song Tai's face lit up with joy: "I've already found out that Oda Ichino will be back tomorrow. He'll be attending a party at the hotel when he gets back. The hotel is bustling with people, so we can make our move there. He'll be much more relaxed about his safety then."
Ye Yu nodded in agreement. The two took out their phones and added each other's contact information, agreeing that Song Tai would confirm the time in advance the next day, and Ye Yu would arrive on time.
They waited until evening.
When Ye Yu received Song Tai's message, she was studying the wooden plaque and box that could block divine sense. She wanted to integrate the wooden plaque into an invisibility talisman to see if the resulting talisman would be more effective, but she failed twice in her attempts.
Ye Yu put everything into her storage ring and then headed towards the hotel that Song Tai had mentioned.
When Ye Yu arrived, Song Tai was dressed in a suit and tie. He led Ye Yu to a corner, handed her a set of clothes, and said, "You need an invitation to enter the banquet hall, so you'll have to pretend to be a hotel waitress. These are clothes I found; they're new and no one has worn them before. I originally wanted to dress as a waitress too, but my boss is here, and I was afraid she'd recognize me and cause trouble, so..."
Ye Yu thought to herself: I originally planned to use an invisibility talisman to sneak in, but Song Tai came up with this method, which makes the operation easier.
She took the clothes and said nonchalantly, "It's okay, this way I won't attract attention, as long as I can get in."
Song Tai then handed Ye Yu a mini earphone and said, "Put this earphone on so we can contact each other later."
Ye Yu took the headphones, put them on, picked up her clothes, and went to the restroom. After everything was ready, the two of them entered the banquet hall together.
By this time, most of the people in the banquet hall had arrived. Ye Yu heard from a waiter that the banquet was mainly for the head of the Zhou family, and most of the people who came here wanted to establish a relationship with the Zhou family and do business together.
Ye Yu leaned against a pillar in the corner, slowly eating a beautifully made cake in her hand.
She released her divine sense and looked around, discovering that there were more than a dozen ancient martial arts cultivators here, but they were all at the Yellow Rank, which was not a high level.
I wonder what these people's purpose is in attending this banquet.
Just then, Song Tai's voice came through Ye Yu's earphones: "Yan Wu, it's Oda Ikeno."
Ye Yu looked towards the doorway following the sound and saw a slightly short, middle-aged man slowly enter. He had a standard square face, his forehead was covered with fine wrinkles, and his temples were already gray. It was Oda Ikeno himself.
Two tall men followed closely behind him. Judging from the aura emanating from them, one of them was at the peak of the late stage of the Profound Rank, and the other was at the mid stage of the Earth Rank. These two should be Oda Ichino's personal bodyguards.
At this moment, Ye Yu saw the woman who had previously shown Song Tai around the company environment smiling and leading Song Tai quickly forward to greet Oda Ikeno.
Through the earphones Song Tai was wearing, Ye Yu clearly heard the woman's passionate words, indulging in praise for Song Tai without reservation.
Ye Yu smiled with a hint of teasing: "You're really something! You've only been working for a few days, and not only are you highly regarded by your superiors, but even that morning at breakfast, a man took the initiative to confess his feelings to you!"
Upon hearing Ye Yu's teasing words, Song Tai felt an urge to immediately retort.
But standing in front of him were Oda Ikeno and the others, so he had to swallow the words that were on the tip of his tongue. His originally fair face turned slightly red, revealing a shy and bashful expression.
Just as Ye Yu was teasing Song Tai with great interest, she noticed that everyone's eyes were unanimously looking towards the doorway.
Ye Yu curiously followed everyone's gaze, and when she saw who it was, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows slightly, thinking to herself, "Hehe, so it's this old acquaintance..."
