1182 Internecine Strife (2)
“Investigate this matter,” Zhou Shu said. “No matter what you discover, don’t be rash! I can’t save you every time!”
This time, if he had arrived a little later, the one who would have self-destructed would have been Zhang San.
“I understand, Your Highness,” Zhang San said in shame. “By the way, Your Highness, Qiyun…”
Zhang San wanted to say something but hesitated.
“I’ve seen him. He’s indeed not suitable to be a scout. I’ve already arranged for him to be Wang Xin’s deputy general,” Zhou Shu said.
Zhang San was not good with words to begin with. He only cupped his hands and said, “Thank you, Your Highness.”
“Alright, there’s no need to be so polite between us. Go do your work.” Zhou Shu waved his hand and sent Zhang San to investigate.
After Zhang San left, Zhou Shu narrowed his eyes and looked at the connate divine weapon in his hand.
There was something he didn’t tell Zhang San. He sensed a familiar aura on this connate divine weapon.
Is it you? Zhou Shu thought. Why are you doing this?
A solemn expression appeared in his eyes. After hesitating for a long time, Zhou Shu gently stomped his foot and turned into a bolt of lightning, instantly disappearing into the horizon.
A moment later, he returned to the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven.
As soon as he returned to the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven, he called Meng Bai over.
No one knew what he and Meng Bai talked about in the room.
But when Meng Bai left the room, his expression was grim, and his eyes were full of complicated emotions.
After Meng Bai, King of War Xiao Jianghe rushed from Great Wei to the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven.
After a long conversation with Zhou Shu, he left the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven and disappeared.
Those who disappeared with him were his comrades from the Criminal Army who had survived until now.
Those who could survive until now were at least at the Earth Immortal realm.
But of the 30,000 Criminal Army soldiers from back then, only 18 could live to the present.
After Xiao Jianghe left, everything in the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven seemed to have returned to normal.
Everything was proceeding in an orderly manner, but Zhou Shu didn’t appear again.
He had been in his room doing something.
If Yin Wuyou and Lu Wenshuang hadn’t been busy outside, outsiders would have thought that he was busy with them.
…
In a secret place, a figure was sitting with a solemn expression.
Below him were two rows of chairs. The two rows of chairs were full of people.
If anyone saw this, they would definitely be shocked.
It was because these people were all Grotto-Heaven realm almighties!
More than twenty Grotto-Heaven realm almighties were gathered in a small house!
They were an extremely powerful force in any Grotto-Heaven.
These people were extremely quiet in this dark house.
His face hidden in the darkness, the person sitting at the head of the table said in a deep voice, “Geng Yi’s mission has failed. I feel uneasy. Let’s move immediately.”
A person on a chair below said angrily, “We originally wanted to mine our own business, but that bastard Geng Yi insisted on provoking him! If he wasn’t already dead, I would really want to kill him again!”
“It’s not that we don’t want to mine our own business but that our relationship is like oil and water.” The person at the head of the table shook his head. “I didn’t expect him to still be so terrifying after disappearing for so many years.
“We currently aren’t strong enough to compete with him. What happened to Geng Yi is a lesson for us. Everyone, don’t be rash, especially don’t act on your own!
“In the following days, everyone, maintain silence and don’t contact each other. Wait for my orders!”
“Yes!” the Grotto-Heaven realm almighties all said respectfully.
Then they got up and left the windowless house, heading in different directions.
After a long while, another figure in a black robe walked out of the house.
This figure was the person who had just sat at the head of the table.
He looked up at the sky and frowned imperceptibly. Then he seemed to turn into black smoke and quickly disappeared.
Only a simple house built of stone remained here.
Not long after the black-robed man disappeared, a few figures descended from the sky.
The leader was Zhang San.
Following closely behind was King of War Xiao Jianghe, who had disappeared after leaving the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven!
He had secretly joined up with Zhang San and led the remaining 18 Criminal Army soldiers to investigate this place.
“We’re a step late,” Zhang San said in a deep voice when they arrived at the door of the stone house. “The other party has already discovered that we’re tracking them. It will be troublesome now.”
“Can we trace them?” Xiao Jianghe asked coldly.
He didn’t care if it was troublesome or not. He had never been afraid of trouble. What he cared about now was whether they could continue to investigate them.
Zhang San frowned. “It’s very difficult.”
He thought that he was already very fast. With Zhou Shu’s support, he could investigate anything he wanted.
But even so, when they tracked to this place, the other party was already on guard.
This way, his investigation would be a failure.
This was because all the clues he had found only pointed to this place.
“Don’t tell me it’s difficult. I just want to know if I can find him!” Xiao Jianghe said coldly.
“I’m afraid not.” Zhang San shook his head. “The few people we captured aren’t high-ranking members of this organization. We’re lucky to be able to find this place.
“It’s obvious now that the other party already knows we’re investigating. They’ve already relocated, and they’ll definitely destroy all the clues. This is the most basic step.”
Zhang San could tell that the other party’s anti-reconnaissance awareness was very strong. What they could find out might be what the other party was willing to let them find out or even mislead them.
Now, Zhang San no longer dared to make decisions on his own. He looked at Xiao Jianghe. “General Xiao, did His Highness tell you anything before you came?”
“No, His Highness only asked me to bring people to protect you,” Xiao Jianghe said. “At the critical moment, my mission is to kill the traitors!”
Xiao Jianghe’s expression turned extremely solemn. “Zhang San, are there really traitors among us?”
He didn’t want to believe this possibility.
Not many people from the Ten Nations’ alliance army were still alive.
These people had all risked their lives together with them. They were all existences who could give their lives for each other.
If there was a traitor among these people, not only was Xiao Jianghe unable to accept it, but even Zhang San was unwilling to accept it.
“I don’t know,” Zhang San said in a low voice. “His Highness must have discovered something, but he didn’t say anything.
“Perhaps deep down, His Highness is unwilling to doubt his brother.”
Zhang San’s expression turned solemn as he continued, “But the more this is the case, the more we have to find out the truth! His Highness has given us a new lease of life. I want to ask him why he did this! Was His Highness unfair to him?! Were we unfair to him?!”
“If we really find a traitor, Zhang San, don’t stop me.” Xiao Jianghe’s eyes were brimming with killing intent.
The reason Zhou Shu had sent Xiao Jianghe was that he was the purest soldier. He would carry out Zhou Shu’s orders 200% without hesitation under any circumstances.
“I won’t stop you,” Zhang San said solemnly. “But the premise is that we have to find out the truth first.
“There are no more clues here. Whether we can find him depends on the last place. If the clues there are gone, we can only go back and ask His Highness for help.”
