"Zhao Tianci?"

Lin Ye raised an eyebrow, surprised that this guy came because of this matter.

But thinking about it, it's normal. Although Liang Houyun is now considered a traitor to the Church Court, he was once a leader of the Holy Light Knights and a core member of the Twelve Noble Families.

He naturally has various channels to know this information.

However, Liang Houyun might not know that nearly half a month ago, Lin Ye was actually already aware of Zhao Tianci's awakening.

"Is he the Light Forged Holy Emissary?" Lin Ye asked.

Upon hearing this, Liang Houyun was slightly taken aback but quickly realized, saying, "Right, you are a Holy Flame Priest, a supreme vocation, you definitely can sense his awakening!"

Being from the Twelve Noble Families, Liang Houyun nearly immediately thought of this.

"Have you been hiding from him for more than half a month?" Liang Houyun asked again.

"No relation, I've been dealing with other matters." Lin Ye said directly.

"Alright, since you know he's the Light Forged Holy Emissary, let me give you another piece of information..." Liang Houyun's face turned serious at this moment.

It's rare for him to show such an expression.

"Speak!" Lin Ye also looked at Liang Houyun.

"Your predecessor, the Holy Flame Priest, although publicly said to have died at the hands of the Demon God, was actually killed by Zhao Tianci himself..." Liang Houyun said.

Lin Ye was slightly stunned, as this news was indeed his first time hearing it.

Even in his previous life, Lin Ye only knew that the previous Holy Flame Priest, Luo Daohe, was sent to the Abyss due to discord with the Church's ideology, and ultimately died at the hands of the Demon God...

But he didn't expect that he was killed by Zhao Tianci, and Lin Ye only knew about this now.

Of course, that is the conclusion, but what exactly happened during this is difficult to express.

However, no matter what, it doesn't change the fact that Luo Daohe died at Zhao Tianci's hand.

"So, should I be cautious of Zhao Tianci, this guy?" Lin Ye asked.

"That's right, I came to warn you to be careful of that guy!" Liang Houyun nodded, speaking solemnly.

With Lin Ye's ability, if he truly faced Zhao Tianci, it's hard to say whether there would be a way out.

Considering that back then, Luo Daohe was at the peak of the Fourth Transformation, just a step away from entering the Strongest ranks, and was killed by Zhao Tianci.

Not to mention, Lin Ye is merely a Junior Professional of the Second Transformation.

No matter how many miracles Lin Ye has created, these things mean nothing in the face of absolute level difference!

"Alright, I'll be careful." Lin Ye nodded solemnly.

Seeing this, Liang Houyun's expression relaxed somewhat and said, "Fortunately, you've attracted the attention of the Alliance's leader. If Zhao Tianci wants to harm you, he'll have to think twice..."

After speaking, Liang Houyun adopted a gossipy expression and said, "I heard, the reason Zhao Tianci slept in the City of Light was actually to avoid the Alliance's leader... because no matter the aspect, he was completely crushed, so he simply hid away out of frustration."

As he spoke, Liang Houyun's tone was mocking, seemingly disdainful of Zhao Tianci's ostrich-like behavior of hiding when he couldn't win.

Upon hearing this, Lin Ye remained silent.

If he were to tell Liang Houyun now that Liu Tianyuan's life was already counting down its final moments, Lin Ye wondered what expression he would show?

But naturally, Lin Ye couldn't reveal such a thing.

At this moment, Lin Ye's phone rang appropriately.

He picked it up to see a strange number that did not conform to normal phone number patterns, revealing immediately that it was an encrypted call.

"Should I step aside?" Liang Houyun clearly noticed this special number, promptly asking.

"No need, it's no big deal." Lin Ye shook his head.

"Alright then." Since Lin Ye said so, Liang Houyun did not need to avoid it.

"Hello." Lin Ye answered the phone.

"It's me." A female voice came from the other side.

Lin Ye recognized it as Tu Mengmeng's voice.

"Speak directly." Lin Ye replied.

"Meet me at Star Sky Coffee on Peaceful Road in half an hour, and order something thoughtful." Tu Mengmeng left these words before hanging up immediately.

Clearly, there were matters needing discussion face-to-face with Lin Ye, of such confidentiality that even encrypted calls weren't secure enough.

"I'm going out." Lin Ye put away the phone and said to Liang Houyun.

"What's the situation? Can I come along?" Liang Houyun asked eagerly, evidently his gossiping soul burning brightly.

Lin Ye looked at Liang Houyun, recalling something, and unexpectedly nodded, "Alright! Let's go!"

"Great! You're straightforward, let's go!" Liang Houyun instantly cheered up, not knowing what Lin Ye was planning.

He might not even realize he was being used.

Half an hour later, Lin Ye and Liang Houyun appeared in a coffee shop.

"Hello, what would you like to drink?" A sweet-faced waitress came forward to ask.

"Black coffee with pearls, coconut jelly, and chili powder." Lin Ye replied.

Liang Houyun widened his eyes at Lin Ye, "Are you drinking something so wild?"

The waitress smiled and said, "Will both of you have this?"

"I..." Liang Houyun was about to say something, but heard Lin Ye say, "The same for me!"

"Alright, please follow me!" The waitress said, leading them directly.

Seeing this, Liang Houyun closed his mouth.

Clearly, this was a signal.

With the waitress leading the way, Lin Ye and Liang Houyun passed through the coffee shop's work area, entered a storage room, and the waitress opened a hidden door and gestured invitingly.

"Thank you!" Lin Ye expressed gratitude and stepped into the hidden passage.

Liang Houyun followed closely, his previously ogling gaze at the waitress suddenly sharp in the dark corridor.

After descending some stairs, Lin Ye and Liang Houyun finally entered a room adorned with intricate patterns.

Inside, a tall and stout woman was idly playing with the cups on the table.

"You're here!" Tu Mengmeng looked at Lin Ye, but seeing Liang Houyun, her gaze became scrutinizing.

She didn't expect Lin Ye to bring someone along.

"Hello, Captain Tu." Lin Ye quickly approached, greeting with a smile.
