Chapter 186: Brazen Deception, Living Persons Consuming Incense Fire (10k)_3
Yu Ziqing cheerfully walked forward.
"Senior, you came looking for me on your own, did you make another profit?"
Zhong Shouzheng couldn't pretend anymore and burst into laughter.
"That's right, they didn't dare get close to Jinlan Mountain at all, so they called me."
"What happened?"
Yu Ziqing had a rough idea in his heart; it must be because those people had entered the Dadui Arch, and there hadn't been any news for a long time, so something definitely happened.
"The Sect Master of Nirvana Sect has fallen."
"Don't know him."
"One of the strong ones who entered the archway, his soul lamp extinguished, and at the moment of his death, he burned his Divine Soul to send a little message through the soul lamp. Within it lies the End Period of Dadui, Evil all over, Earth Deity causing mischief, and Devil creatures breeding, with extreme dangers. More importantly, among them, there is a traitor, and he got ambushed."
"Hmm?" Yu Ziqing was taken aback.
Goodness, he had never thought of such a situation.
Those people inside the archway didn't hurry to unite and think about how to solve the issue, yet they backstabbed their teammates.
They must have some serious issues.
"Do they know who ambushed him?"
"Seems like they don't know, the message he sent back didn't say."
"Then why did they ask you?"
"They want me to ask for your Jinlan Mountain's help."
"Ridiculous, they want us to help? Why should we help? I've already said it before, they've done nothing, yet they have the nerve to ask for our help? Only thinking of enjoying the fruits of others' labor?"
"Of course, I know. I didn't even want to come, but they gave me two Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures. They also said it's not my fault if it doesn't work out, so naturally, I wouldn't refuse free profits."
Zhong Shouzheng laughed cheerfully; Yu Ziqing's reaction was no surprise to him; he hadn't planned to be a good persuader anyway. He was just going for a trip, to watch the fun, and incidentally take the benefits. Incidentally, he also wanted to see how Yu Ziqing's injuries were healing.
"You seem to have recovered quite well. Need any Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures? This time, I specifically asked for one that's good for health, one for each of us, no need to refuse."
Zhong Shouzheng reached out, a long jade box in hand.
Yu Ziqing couldn't help but laugh; this guy had really gotten addicted to extortion.
One sucker after another, each taking their turn.
Yu Ziqing even thought maybe Zhong Shouzheng was reluctant to become a neighbor because he couldn't logically scam those fools here.
After all, nominally, Zhong Shouzheng was taking a huge risk by coming here.
"Don't refuse, this Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure, I can't use it at all."
"Forget it, you keep it. I've recovered from my injuries. I can't use these things either, it's a waste to give them to me."
Yu Ziqing firmly refused to accept, as Zhong Shouzheng had earned it through his abilities, and he certainly didn't want it.
"Senior, you can tell those people that it's not impossible to help. But, I can't help for free, right?"
"Naturally, that's fair. If you are willing to help, then you don't have to worry about the rest. If I don't make them bleed, nothing will get done."
"No, Senior, that's enough. I've always been about being kind to others and helping them. Since even the chief director is dead, I won't ask for too much, definitely not causing them pain. Helping them to take a look wouldn't be impossible. It's just that place, once I enter, I might not be able to come out. Also, from what you described, I think the incident of the Nirvana Sect leader being ambushed is most likely not due to a traitor but from Devils. I've been to many Dadui Seals, I know them the best. There must be some Devils who can disguise themselves as them, mingle among them, waiting to hunt them. Those strong enough to go there aren't unaware. If they aren't united, they might all end up ruined. Tell them, I need all the detailed information about them, the more detailed the better. Ideally, it should have records from their youth to now, as detailed as possible. This way, if I see anyone, at least I can confirm their identity, matching them up. I'll have to clear up misunderstandings one by one first, help them unite, only then is there a chance to solve this matter."
Yu Ziqing spoke nonsense with his eyes open, but what he said wasn't without reason.
Those people inside were definitely in a state of mutual suspicion now.
For unity, it indeed required an outsider who certainly had nothing to do with anyone among them.
People of Jinlan Mountain were indeed the most suitable.
Zhong Shouzheng pondered slightly, and it did make sense.
No matter what needed to be done or achieved, indeed, they must first unite.
"Alright, I'll go back and tell them."
"Tell them, if I can't confirm the other party's identity, I'm definitely not going. I want to help, but there must be a chance of success, right? I don't want them to falsify and conceal information, letting the Devil creature lurking among us strike a fatal blow at a crucial moment. Letting everyone die inside, with the loss of over a dozen Ninth Tiers, ask them if they can bear it. If Dadui can never return, can they accept it? Oh, by the way, give me a list of those people."
"You can count on me." After Zhong Shouzheng agreed, he departed in a hurry.
Yu Ziqing waited at the original spot.
In reality, he didn't know anything. How could he possibly know the specific situation inside?
Regardless of whether there was a traitor inside, he had to make the people outside unite first.
Otherwise, if the people outside started suspecting each other, what was even the point anymore?
