Zhou Jing did not answer immediately. Instead, he asked, âAre you a wandering hunter from White Plains Town?â
âYou know me?â Weber was puzzled.
Zhou Jing smiled, âIâve never seen you before, but when we first met, I noticed that you were staring at my face in surprise, as if you had seen someone who looked like me. Now that youâve called Jasonâs name, itâs not difficult to tell that you were once a hunter from White Plains Town. If Iâm not wrong, you and Jason were once partners in hunting together.â
Weber was certain of his guess, but he still asked, âAnd you are?â
Zhou Jing stopped smiling and deliberately lowered his voice, pretending to be cautious.
âJason is my biological brother, but I donât have a surname now. My name is only Jace.â
They were indeed related by blood. Weber knew that he had guessed correctly!
Weber immediately believed him. He didnât know Jason that well, so he immediately accepted this excuse that suited his common sense.
After all, it was hard evidence that the two of them looked similar⊠The previous guess that Jason had come back from the dead was indeed too ridiculous.
âthey definitely couldnât be the same person. Putting aside the fact that the dead couldnât be revived, just the difference in their conversation performance was huge. Jace smiled, unlike Jason, and his brain was much better than Jasonâs.

He was not surprised that Jace hid his surname. As the assassination of the lord had fermented to this day, too many people knew the name âJason·Wood.â This surname was eye-catching, and hiding his identity could avoid a lot of trouble.
At this moment, Weber suddenly fell silent. Although Jace was Jasonâs brother, he was still a stranger to him. Even after recognizing his identity, he didnât know what to say.
After a few seconds of hesitation, Weber thought of a question and asked in a doubtful tone.
âYouâre Jasonâs brother and a third enhancement hunter. Why didnât Jason follow you, and instead go to White Plains Town to be a hunter? If he was with you, maybe Jason wouldnât have to dieâŠâ
Zhou Jing waved his hand and said seriously, âI know what youâre thinking, but my family has never relied on others. Even if weâre biological brothers, we have to separate when we reach a certain age and live our own lives. This is Woodâs family motto!â
Surprise appeared on Weberâs muscular face.
Ever since the tribal era, the concept of survival as a group had been ingrained in the blood of the humans in this world. He found it difficult to understand this family tradition.
However, as an experienced hunter, Weber suddenly remembered that there were many mutated beasts in the natural world that had similar habits. They would let the members of their race hunt alone and train before returning to their racial tribe.
Often, members of the tribe would die during this process, but the mutated beasts that survived would be stronger. It was a cold and cruel habit of survival.
âThe Wood Family⊠seems like a cruel tribe.â Weber thought.
He did not doubt the truth of Zhou Jingâs words, nor did he doubt the strong tenacity brought about by this family discipline. He just did not understand why they would uphold such a tradition.
âBut itâs your brother who has died. Will you really just sit by⊠Oh!â
Weber subconsciously started, but he suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and his eyes widened in realization.
Yes, the Lord of White Plains Town, Lutt, had been kidnapped and killed. The murderer was suspected to be a Mutant Blood Warrior with three enhancements!
The strength matched, the motive matched⊠The case was solved!
The murderer must have been Jaceâsix months after Jasonâs death, his brother had personally gone to White Plains Town and taken Luttâs life for revenge!
Weber was suddenly enlightened. Everything felt in place.

A cruel family tribe; they were cruel to their own people, but they were merciless to their enemies! They usually did not rely on each other, but once a relative died, the Wood family would definitely take revenge!
Weber felt a chill.
Seeing this, Zhou Jing raised his eyebrows and said meaningfully, âThere are some things that you shouldnât say even if youâve guessed it. I believe in your relationship with Jason.â
Weber snapped out of his reverie, his face serious, âIâll keep your secret.â
He had no intention of exposing him in the first place. He only asked to clear his doubts. Now that he had obtained the answer, he was satisfied and did not have any other thoughts.
Although Weber did not approve of the crime of killing a lord, he was not pedantic. Since the dead would reveal no evidence and no one had discovered it, he would not betray Jasonâs family. After all, he had been Jasonâs comrade for a while.
Furthermore, Lutt was already regarded as an enemy by the hunters of White Plains Town. If not for his status as a lord, he would have long been killed. Jace had only done what they wanted to do but did not⊠When he heard about Luttâs death, he was so happy that he had three bowls of meat.
Zhou Jing nodded. He trusted in the integrity of hunters.
If he was ruthless, he might have thought of silencing him at this moment. However, Zhou Jing did not have such thoughts at all. After all, they were former comrades. Moreover, it was not a big deal for him to be recognized.
Do you know what an Eternal Apostle is? Whatâs there to be afraid of!
After chatting for a while and telling Weber the âtruth,â Zhou Jing walked out of the tent and exhaled softly.
This acquaintance would not reveal anything, but the side effect was that Weber really thought that there was someone in the âWood Familyâ in this world that had hidden their identityâŠ
âSmall problem, a small problem.â
Zhou Jing muttered to himself before putting this matter down. He opened the interface and took a look.
At this moment, there were several notifications on the interface.
