Chapter 119: The truth is revealed, the conspiracy is plotted

In Qingyun Market, outside an inconspicuous shop.

Zhou Zhenghu, who was once one of the secret agents of the Yuling Sect, was lazily lying in a chair basking in the sun.

At this moment, a skinny old man stumbled past Zhou Zhenghu.

The skinny old man was Chen Xuan, who used the shape-changing magic technique to change his appearance, aura and state of mind.

"Fellow Daoist, are you still short of people here? Little Lao Er just wants a job to support his family!"

Chen Xuan pretended to be humble.

Every move he made was consistent with his identity and realm.

"roll!"

Zhou Zhenghu didn't even look at Chen Xuan.

Lying on the lounge chair, still lazily basking in the sun.

"This……"

Chen Xuan was speechless for a while.

Taking this opportunity, he secretly waved his hand and directly collected the six wind-listening rats lurking here, and then slowly left.

When Chen Xuan returned to the Fanhua Courtyard again, he activated the protective formation and released the six wind-listening rats.

"Tell me everything you saw and heard in Zhou Zhenghu's shop these days." Chen Xuan said.

Six wind mice squeaked with joy.

Their intelligence is not very high, and they do not know the common language of the immortal world.

But there is a spiritual connection between them and Chen Xuan.

These days, everything they saw and heard could be transmitted to Chen Xuan's mind through his mind.

After carefully checking everything the six wind-listening rats saw, Chen Xuan frowned even more tightly.

"has a problem!"

Chen Xuan took out a blank jade slip, wrote down his doubts in detail, and pondered them carefully.

"Zhou Zhenghu's shop is not doing well. During the period when Tingfengshu was monitoring it, it only did two transactions. Moreover, the amount was only a dozen spirit stones."

"But the fact that he lazily basks in the sun every day shows that Zhou Zhenghu must have other income to support his current life."

"Secondly, Zhou Zhenghu's Taoist partner, Madam Chang Feng, is dressed very unusually. For such a long time, she has not often practiced Taoism with Zhou Zhenghu, but lives alone somewhere else. Most importantly, Zhou Zhenghu doesn't object. This is also very suspicious."

"Besides, Zhou Zhenghu has met several people with strange behavior during this period. Two of them are immortal cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage. They should have some background."

Chen Xuan listed these doubts one by one, trying to find clues from this information.

After a long time, Chen Xuan still did not have enough evidence to prove that Zhou Zhenghu was responsible for Xue Zhong's death.

"Right now, I just suspect that Zhou Zhenghu framed Xue Zhong, but I don't have conclusive evidence."

"But, since Zhou Zhenghu and others dared to attack the Yuling Sect's cultivators, they should not be afraid of me, and they may even wait for me to come to them."

"If so..."

When Chen Xuan thought of this, a hint of coldness suddenly appeared in the depths of his eyes.

Soon, Chen Xuan activated the shape-changing magic technique, changed his breath and appearance, and appeared in front of Zhou Zhenghu's shop.

This time, Chen Xuan was not polite.

A cold gaze swept over Zhou Zhenghu, and the pressure from the early stage of foundation building was released instantly.

"Zhou Zhenghu?"

"you are?"

Zhou Zhenghu was startled by Chen Xuan's sudden arrival. He jumped up from the recliner in a vigilant manner.

He glanced around, but no one knew what he was looking at.

Chen Xuan didn't explain much.

Standing there quietly.

After a long time, Zhou Zhenghu seemed to remember something, and a flash of panic appeared in his eyes.

"Senior, although I run a small shop, the things inside are all fine products. Why don't you go in and take a look?"

"Oh Well!"

Chen Xuan agreed and walked into the shop with Zhou Zhenghu.

Soon, under the leadership of Zhou Zhenghu, Chen Xuan came to a secret room behind the shop.

"Zhou Zhenghu greets you, sir. For such a long time, the higher-ups didn't send anyone to look for me. I thought they had forgotten about me."

After Zhou Zhenghu saluted Chen Xuan, he complained continuously.

Chen Xuan looked indifferent and let Zhou Zhenghu complain.

After a cup of tea, after listening to Zhou Zhenghu's complaints, Chen Xuan said, "I know you have suffered a lot of grievances over the years. But now that I am here, you must obey my orders from now on."

"Also, if you have any requests, you can ask for them. Right now, I have an important matter that I need your help with."

Chen Xuan looked cold and arrogant.

The more he did this, the more respectful Zhou Zhenghu became to him.

"Sir, please tell me what you want. I, Zhou Zhenghu, will do my best to serve you."

"Very good. Recently, I need to collect some things that can help monsters upgrade. Especially the things that can help scorpion monsters upgrade first."

"Take these spirit stones first. If you have any news, inform me as soon as possible."

Chen Xuan threw a storage bag to Zhou Zhenghu.

Zhou Zhenghu's mind swept over the storage bag and he couldn't help but look overjoyed.

"Thank you, sir. Don't worry, I will do my best."

After a pause, Zhou Zhenghu said, "Senior, I wonder where I should go to find you now that I have some news?"

Chen Xuan looked calm, but he was sneering in his heart.

"There is indeed something wrong with this Zhou Zhenghu. As a spy, he only has one-way contacts. But Zhou Zhenghu took the initiative to inquire about my whereabouts. His motives are not pure."

"If I'm not mistaken, if I reject him, he will find a way to contact me soon."

Thinking of this, Chen Xuan said, "I have no fixed place to stay, so you don't have to come to me to report the situation. I have a few sound transmission notes here. If you have something important to say, just use them to contact me. I will come to you at other times."

"This...is, sir!"

Zhou Zhenghu was stunned, but quickly agreed.

Next, Chen Xuan gave Zhou Zhenghu some instructions and left immediately.

Before leaving, he left behind six wind-listening mice.

Let them continue to monitor Zhou Zhenghu for them.

……

Three days later in the morning, Zhou Zhenghu's Taoist partner, Mrs. Chang Feng, came to his shop with a man and a woman.

Madam Chang Feng is only at the tenth level of Qi Refining.

The man and woman who came with her were both powerful warriors in the Foundation Establishment Stage.

The man is in the middle stage of foundation building, his name is Qian Yilong.

The girl is in the initial stage of foundation building, her name is Leng Wushuang.

After these people arrived at the secret room behind the shop, Zhou Zhenghu quickly opened the protective formation.

hum!

When the formation was activated, Qian Yilong and Leng Wushuang's expressions suddenly became cold and arrogant.

As for Madam Chang Feng, she lowered her head and stood behind the two men without saying a word.

At this moment, Zhou Zhenghu was also standing obediently opposite Qian Yilong and Leng Wushuang.

"Zhou Zhenghu, you said that the Yuling Sect sent someone again? Is this true or false?"

Leng Wushuang swept a cold and arrogant gaze over Zhou Zhenghu, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Reporting to Fairy Leng, the Yuling Sect did send someone. But he is a strong man in the Foundation Establishment Stage. He is extremely cautious and may not be easy to deal with." Zhou Zhenghu said.

Leng Wushuang looked disdainful and said, "What are you afraid of? Senior Brother Qian and I are definitely not ordinary people. Last time, wasn't it with your help that we killed Xue Zhong, a foundation-building cultivator from the Yuling Sect?"

"This……"

Zhou Zhenghu understood clearly that Leng Wushuang was reminding him that it would not be easy to get off now that he had boarded the other party's ship.

The only way out is to follow them till the end.

"Don't worry, Fairy Leng. Since I, Zhou Zhenghu, have joined you, I will not go back on my word. However, that Yuling Sect's Foundation Establishment disciple is more experienced than Xue Zhong and is difficult to deal with. So..."

Before Zhou Zhenghu could finish his words, he was interrupted coldly by Qian Yilong.

"Zhou Zhenghu, put yourself in the right position. You are just our spy, do your job well. You don't need to worry about other things."

"Yes, Mr. Qian."

Zhou Zhenghu agreed, said nothing more, and stood there quietly.

Leng Wushuang's cold and arrogant eyes swept over Zhou Zhenghu, but then looked at Qian Yilong with tenderness.

"Brother Qian, what should we do next?"

Qian Yilong's eyes lit up.

He looked at Fairy Leng with a half-smile in his eyes.

Especially on Fairy Leng's plump body, he stayed there for a long time.

"Junior sister, senior brother, I would like to hear what you have to say."

When Leng Wushuang saw Qian Yilong's statement, he not only did not feel the slightest bit of hatred, but was secretly ecstatic.

She and Qian Yilong are both cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage.

However, she was just an ordinary cultivator in the early stage of foundation building in the sect.

However, Qian Yilong is the closed disciple of a powerful master in the Jindan stage.

If she could gain Qian Yilong's favor now, she would definitely have a bright future.

Soon, Leng Wushuang said in a charming and soft voice, "Brother, in my opinion, we might as well lure the snake out of its hole first, and then follow the clues to catch the spies of the Yuling Sect in Qingyun Market in one fell swoop. How about that?"

Qian Yilong nodded contentedly.

"Junior sister's method is indeed brilliant. Especially luring the snake out of the hole and following the clues to find the source, which is really appreciated by me. If so, Junior sister, why don't you come to my cave tonight and talk to me about this matter in detail."

After a pause, Qian Yilong continued, "If this can be accomplished, I will report it to Master and give you a great credit. In the future, you will definitely get more cultivation resources in the sect than you do now."

"Senior Brother Qian..."

Fairy Leng grumbled, and soon said coquettishly: "Junior sister must come tonight!"

"Haha... I've heard that the Eighteen Soul-Calling Skills that Junior Sister is practicing are quite exquisite. I, Senior Brother, can experience the essence of it tonight."

Qian Yilong and Leng Wushuang exchanged glances for a while, and soon Leng Wushuang looked at Zhou Zhenghu again: "Did the Yuling Sect's Foundation Establishment cultivator leave a contact address?"

"Reporting to Fairy Leng, that person was very cunning and did not leave any contact address. However, he asked me to contact him directly using the sound transmission note if I have anything to ask."

"Oh? He is indeed very cunning. But, did he tell you anything before he left?"

"That's right. He asked me to collect some natural treasures that can help the scorpion demon improve its realm."

"Isn't this a coincidence? I happen to have a top-grade demon spirit pill here, which can not only strengthen the demon beast's bloodline, but also improve the realm. You should contact him right now and tell him that you got a demon spirit pill and want to deliver it to him personally."

Leng Wushuang continued to sneer.

The cold murderous intent in his eyes was not concealed at all.
