Chapter 3609 Suspicion

"What do you want to call me for?"

After the cigarette smoke became thicker, a vague voice suddenly sounded in front of Li Zhong. The moment he heard the voice, the expression on Li Zhong's face suddenly became extremely respectful.

"My Lord contacted you rashly because I have some strange opinions that I think need to be reported to you."

"What is it?"

Li Zhong reported all the information he got from Chu Yang, and mixed in some of his speculations.

After Li Zhong reported the whole story to his superior, he lowered his head and waited anxiously for the result.

After a long silence, the vague voice sounded again, and Li Zhong raised his head and waited patiently for instructions.

"You mean a strange strong man appeared near Wanghai Tower, and you suspect that your fellow apprentice is involved with him?"

"My Lord, this is my guess. My apprentice has always been ordinary in the past, but it is really too outrageous that he suddenly encountered an accident."

"And the other party's performance gave me a feeling that it was not consistent with the past. Although he hid it well, I still found some clues."

"I understand. I will find a way to send someone to investigate this matter. You continue to stay in Wanghai Tower to perform your mission. If things are really as you said, I will apply for some rewards for you."

Hearing this, Li Zhong's face showed a look of joy. He has been lurking in Wanghai Tower for more than ten years, but he has never received such a promise from this Lord.

If it succeeds, if nothing unexpected happens, he should be able to leave Wanghai Tower soon, and he will no longer have to suffer as a cautious traitor. Moreover, he had an 80% chance of being sure that his Junior Brother Chu was now pretending to be someone else...

And now, he was probably the only one in the entire Wanghai Tower who discovered that the other party's identity was abnormal.

But unfortunately, before he was sure that Junior Brother Chu had something strange, he had no way to expose the abnormality of the other party, otherwise he could still earn more benefits from this matter.

For now, he could only continue to lurk, pretending that nothing had happened and secretly searching for the abnormality of the other party, and wait until the right time to give the other party a fatal blow.

Although it was different from what he had imagined at the beginning, it was not easy for him to do this with his identity. If it were an ordinary person, he would probably have no way to use the information he had obtained to gain benefits for himself.

There was still more than a month before the sect competition, which would be the beginning of the other party's exposure, and he needed to prepare himself before the competition began, and be on guard against any unexpected events at any time.

If Junior Brother Chu really had problems as he imagined, then the other party would probably start his own plan during the competition.

By that time, he and the other party would definitely have a collision and conflict, so he had to be prepared for the possibility of his identity being exposed, so as not to affect the other party's existence at that time, but to get himself involved.

On the other side, Chu Yang didn't know what Li Zhong was thinking. After several battles, he was satisfied and withdrew from the battle space and counted his gains.

After these battles, Chu Yang had a preliminary understanding of the operating rules of the Taikoo Xuanjing Palace.

Every time he fought a battle match, the opponents who appeared opposite Chu Yang were mostly as strong as him, but every ten games, there would be an existence who was slightly stronger than him.

If he could defeat it, the reward he would get would be doubled. If he failed, he would not be punished, but the reward he got afterwards would be reduced.

Chu Yang fought eleven battles in a short period of time, and almost every one of them ended in a reluctant posture, but the last one wasted a little longer.

But the result was that the reward Chu Yang received after winning was also more generous than he imagined. All of them were precious materials he had never seen before, and one of them, a golden jade seal, attracted Chu Yang's attention the most.

Chu Yang took out the golden jade seal that particularly caught his attention from a pile of rewards, and put it on his palm to examine it carefully. From the outside, this jade seal seemed to be no different from the jade seals in the secular dynasty.

But when he touched it, the warmth from the bottom of the jade seal made Chu Yang feel particularly comfortable.

What made Chu Yang even more excited was that whenever he held the jade seal, a slight buzzing sound would be heard from the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Array in the secret collection of the Yuan Shen.

This meant that this jade seal was definitely not as simple as Chu Yang imagined, but at the moment he had not yet discovered what was special about this jade seal.

Chu Yang could only judge that the existence of this jade seal was far superior to other rewards.

And now he could only keep the jade seal carefully, but when there was a suitable opportunity in the future, he would find out the true function of the jade seal.

Putting down the jade seal, Chu Yang looked up and looked around the internal structure of the Taikoo Xuanjing Palace. In addition to this jade seal, the Taikoo Xuanjing Palace itself also made Chu Yang particularly concerned.

The existence of the jade seal is indeed precious, but without the Ancient Mysterious Crystal Palace, Chu Yang would have no way to obtain such a precious treasure.

So it is self-evident which of the two is more important.

However, Chu Yang has temporarily discovered the special features of the Ancient Mysterious Crystal Palace, but the timing of specific verification will have to wait until the end of the competition, and before that he really needs to investigate Li Zhong's identity.

After leaving the Tan Gu Xuan Jing Palace, Chu Yang reappeared in his residence, but when he opened his eyes, he was shocked because an old man with long hair and white eyebrows appeared in front of him, looking at him intently.

When Chu Yang came to his senses, a smile suddenly appeared on the old man's face.

His voice did not sound old, but had a reassuring quality.

"Where did your soul go just now?"

Chu Yang recognized the identity of the person as the cabinet elder of the Supervisory Pavilion, so he quickly straightened his face, showed a panic, and responded with a pious attitude:

"Reply to the elder, I was practicing a secret method just now, and I didn't notice the elder coming. Sometimes I hope the elder will forgive me for my courtesy."

The supervisory elder in front of him didn't seem to care about such a small matter. He looked up and down at Chu Yang, and the more he looked, the more Chu Yang felt that he was unfathomable. It felt like his identity had been discovered by the old man in front of him.

But thinking that the probability of his disguise being discovered by the old man in front of him was very small, Chu Yang temporarily put aside his anxiety and just looked at him calmly.

"You are very good."

"What do you mean, elder? I don't understand at all."

The supervisory elder smiled and explained:

"You can remain calm under my gaze. Your state of mind is stronger than I thought, and your eyes are calm. It seems that there should be no problem with your identity now."
