Chapter 114: Searching for Evidence
Translator: 549690339
The Deshun Commandery Prince stared at Zhou Yingde silently for a long time. “Yingde has grown up and knows how to say such high-sounding words.”” Seeing this, cold sweat filled Zhou Yingde’s forehead.” Seventh Great Uncle, although 1 have some selfish motives, everything I said is true.”
“If Seventh Granduncle doesn’t believe me, you can go and investigate.”
“1 didn’t say 1 didn’t believe it.” The Deshun Commandery Prince came to Zhou Yingde’s side and patted him on the shoulder.” But I’m already old. 1 don’t want to participate in this battle anymore.”
“When I helped your grandfather compete for the Human King position, 1 had already offended many people. Now, 1 want to spend my remaining years in peace, so 1 don’t want to offend anyone again.”
Zhou Yingde looked at Deshun Commandery Prince in puzzlement. Was this still the Seventh Great Uncle who feared nothing in his memories?
Seemingly seeing through Zhou Yingde’s thoughts, the Deshun Commandery Prince smiled and said,””In the past, I fell into the abyss and couldn’t see the way up at all. Naturally, I wanted to devote myself to the Zhou Consortium to repay the Zhou Consortium for raising me.”
“But now that 1 see hope, I naturally have more misgivings.”
Too many scruples?
Zhou Yingde could not understand his seventh great uncle. What kind of hope could make his seventh great uncle, who had dedicated himself to the family, start to have selfish motives?
Could it be…Was it that matter?
Zhou Yingde’s pupils constricted. Then, sorrow rose in his heart.” Seventh
Granduncle, you…” Have you really decided?”
“If the plan fails, I’m afraid you will…”
“This matter has already dragged on for two hundred years. How many two hundred years can a Zifu Disciple have? No matter what, 1 will give it a try. “The Deshun Commandery Prince laughed.
“I understand.” Zhou Yingde bitterly nodded his head and immediately stood up.”Seventh Granduncle, 1 will take my leave.”
“Okay, go ahead.”
Looking at Zhou Yingde’s back, the Deshun Commandery Prince smiled and picked up a cup of tea.” You’re right. The position of Human King naturally cannot fall into the hands of a ruthless person like Ying Lan.”
“But isn’t your big brother ruthless? Were the other members of the royal family not ruthless?”
“The Zhou Clan has ruled Great Qian for too long, so long that all of you have forgotten that the way of governing a country does not rely on ruthlessness, but on the bright path of a king.”
“For a whole 8oo years, there hasn’t been a new mighty figure on stage. Let’s see how long you can continue to be arrogant.”
“Go ahead and make a scene. This has nothing to do with me. When the Zhou Consortium falls, you will truly wake up.”
Then, Zhou Yingde drank the hot tea in his hand in one gulp and turned around to do his own thing.
It was true that he did not want to get involved in the royal family’s affairs, and it was also true that he was plotting that matter.
Two months later, in Chen City.
Chen Family, Chen Yang’s courtyard.
Yang Chen’s eyes were tightly shut as he sat in the middle of the courtyard. The spiritual energy in the courtyard was absorbed by Yang Chen, forming a spiritual energy vortex.
Yang Chen, who was in the center of the Spirit Qi vortex, felt his aura become more and more intense.
All of a sudden, Yang Chen broke through another meridian. The Spiritual Qi in the courtyard and the Spiritual Stones beside him were quickly devoured by Yang Chen.
After doing all this, Yang Chen opened his eyes and a bright light flashed in them.
“After nearly two months of cultivation, my cultivation has finally reached the third level of Meridian Unsealing.”
Over the past two months, Yang Chen’s cultivation had grown rapidly with the help of the Meridian Advancement Pills. After consuming ten Meridian Advancement Pills, Yang Chen’s cultivation had officially reached the peak of the early stage of Meridian Unsealing.
After his cultivation had broken through, there were some things that he had to deal with.
According to Chen Ying, the duration of his mission was three months.
Now that the deadline was up and the mission had not been completed, Prince Ke’s butler would probably send a new killer.
As for the Song family, the butler of the Ke family would probably contact the Song family to find out why Shadow Thirteen had failed.
After all, the Song family was the local tyrant of Nanyang County. The information they had was definitely not something they could compare to.
At this time, they would definitely be able to find evidence of the Song family’s betrayal.
Immediately, Yang Chen went to the meeting hall and called Chen Ying and Chen Xuan to the meeting hall.
In the meeting hall.
“Chen Xuan, go to Song City with Chen Ying and try to get hold of the evidence of the Song family’s betrayal.”
“Understood!” Chen Xuan nodded.
“Yes.” Chen Yang nodded and looked at Chen Ying,” Chen Ying, this is your first mission since you submitted to the Chen Family. 1 hope you won’t disappoint me.””
“Patriarch, don’t worry. I’ve found the evidence of treason!”Chen Ying said. “Alright, go.”
After Chen Xuan and Chen Ying left, Chen Yang called Chen Xuan over.” Great
Elder, how is the cultivation of the clansmen?”
“At present, there are a total of two clan members at the ninth level of Qi Refinement, namely the third elder and the sixth elder. There are twelve at the eighth level of Qi Refinement, and even more at the seventh level of Qi Refinement.”
At this point, Chen Xuan smiled and said,”This is all thanks to you, family head. Ever since you took power, the cultivation resources of the Chen family have increased year by year. The cultivation speed of the clansmen has naturally increased.””
“This is the result of everyone’s hard work.”Yang Chen waved his hand and said,”Oh right, has the aptitude stone I ordered from the Zhou Trading Company arrived?””
“My lord, I arrived yesterday.”
“Alright then, gather all the clansmen together and let’s test their aptitude.”Yang Chen said.
“Yes, sir.”
Immediately, with Yang Chen’s order, everyone, be it the direct descendants or the collateral relatives, gathered on the training field.
After the aptitude stone was moved to the martial arts field, Chen Yang said,”Let’s begin..”
