After half a sound.
After Chen Yunjie returned to the cell, his expression was downcast, and he deliberately avoided Lin Bai's gaze.
At that moment, Lin Bai knew... Chen Yunjie probably had already said everything.
Lin Bai secretly sighed in his heart, originally planned to keep the secret, and could deal with Mrs. Qianrou for a while longer.
In order to extract more secrets from Mrs. Qianrou's mouth.
But I didn't expect... Lin Bai could keep his mouth shut, but others were different.
Especially for a nobleman like Chen Yunjie, who seldom experienced life and death ordeals, and was often intimidated by the enemy with a few words, he would explain everything.
Lin Bai analyzed it before... This is the disadvantage of the family and sect's "captive disciples".
Families and sects place too much emphasis on the talent and cultivation of warriors, so that the Tianjiao who are "raised" by them often only have cultivation strength, no brains, and no social experience.
The flowers grown in the greenhouse have never seen the wind and the sun, and a little thunder and rain will make these delicate flowers bow their heads.
"How much did you say?" Seeing Chen Yunjie's guilty face, Lin Bai already guessed in his heart that he had already confessed, so he asked how much he had said.
"I..." Chen Yunjie sat in the corner with self-blame and shame, "I'm sorry, Lord Wolf, they said they can give me back my freedom, so I..."
Lin Bai didn't have the heart to blame Chen Yunjie, but asked again: "How much did you say?"
"I have said everything, but there is no 'all said'." Chen Yunjie hesitated, "I told her, you are the son of Tianshuizong, and you are also a celebrity in front of His Highness Chen Wang. If His Highness Chen succeeds in enthroning, you are very happy It is possible to crack the earth and seal the king and become a king with a different surname."
"That's all I said!"
Isn't that enough?
Lin Bai leaned against the wall helplessly, closed his eyes and sighed, since Mrs. Qianrou had obtained all his identity, the initiative fell into Mrs. Qianrou's hands.
Next, Lin Bai can only wait for Mrs. Qianrou's execution.
When Chen Yunjie saw Lin Bai's appearance, he felt extremely guilty and guilty, mainly because after he finished telling the news about Lin Bai's identity, Mrs. Qianrou didn't fulfill his promise and didn't give him back his freedom.
...
"Sage Son of Tianshui Sect, Wolf Lord of Chu State!"
After Mrs. Qianrou asked the jailer to send Chen Yunjie back, she stood in the interrogation room and laughed to herself, "I really didn't expect to catch a holy son?"
"Although it is a big trouble, I remember that the Tianshui Sect has been in decline for many years, and among the five schools and seven schools in Chu State, it is still in name only."
"Even if their holy son dies, it probably won't cause much commotion."
"Then the next thing will be easy."
Suddenly at this time.
A figure rushed into the interrogation room, "Madam, my lord, please come over."
Mrs. Qianrou frowned, "I'm so busy these days, doesn't the City Lord know? What are you asking me to do at this moment?"
"It's the envoys of the Nine Nether Demon Palace and the 'Monster Clan's envoys' who are here, Lord City Master, please go over and say hello."
Madam Qianrou beamed with joy when she heard the envoy from the Monster Race, but when she heard the envoy from the Nine Nether Demon Palace, her complexion suddenly became gloomy.
"The hunting world has just opened, is the Jiuyou Demon Palace so impatient?" She snorted coldly, "I see, let the envoy of the Nine Nether Demon Palace go to the meeting hall to rest first, and I will go to see the Yaozu envoy first."
City Lord's Mansion, in the back garden.
Several young men and women in silk and satin, led by an old man, were admiring flowers in the back garden.
Mrs. Qianrou walked quickly through the corridors and buildings, and when she saw these young men and women from a distance, a smile appeared on her face, "Uncle Clan, please stay safe."
Seeing Madam Qianrou approaching, the old man burst into a smile, "Qianrou, long time no see, how are you doing these days?"
Mrs. Qianrou shrugged with a smile, "The hunting world is not open, this place is an excellent place to hide, but it lacks a lot of freedom."
The old man sighed softly, "It will be fine when the teleportation array is set up, and you can freely travel between the hunting world and the outside world through the teleportation array."
After the old man exchanged a few pleasantries with Qianrou, another handsome young man standing next to the old man looked at Mrs. Qianrou's eyes with excitement.
As soon as the two of them finished speaking, he couldn't wait to interject, "Rou'er, don't come here without any problems."
Only then did Madam Qianrou notice him, and she responded with a smile, "Brother Jingming, please stay safe."
Hearing Mrs. Qianrou's voice, the man named 'Jing Ming' became more and more excited, like a baboon in heat, and couldn't help jumping up and down.
Mrs. Qianrou suddenly changed the topic, "Uncle Clan, you rest first, I'm going to see the envoy of Nine Nether Demon Palace."
Before the old man could speak, Jing Ming frowned, "The envoy from Nine Nether Demon Palace is also here?"
"That's right, it should have entered Cangmang City with you." Mrs. Qianrou replied.
When Jing Ming heard this, he became furious, "The group of dogs who can't get enough to eat said they want to help our demon clan, but they have been sucking our blood to strengthen the Jiuyou Demon Palace all these years."
"In recent years, their demands have become more and more excessive, and they want more and more resources!"
As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Qianrou and the old man's expressions also darkened. Both of them were obviously extremely dissatisfied with the actions of Jiuyou Demon Palace.
The old man calmed down his anger, and said earnestly: "Qianrou, we are now at a critical moment in our plan, we must not lose the chain."
"As for the envoys of the Nine Nether Demon Palace, it's better not to provoke them lightly."
Mrs. Qianrou nodded again and again, "Uncle Clan, I understand. Then you rest first, and I will go there first."
Jingming said, "Rou'er, I'll go with you."
Mrs. Qianrou thought for a while, nodded her head and agreed, and settled down with the demon envoys first, and then came to the meeting hall with Jing Ming.
The city lord's mansion, the meeting hall.
When Mrs. Qianrou and Jing Ming walked in, there were already a dozen warriors sitting on chairs drinking tea, and as she walked into the meeting hall, these people also got up and saluted one after another.
"Madam Qianrou, long time no see."
The person who spoke was a middle-aged man. Although he was tall and strong, his face was ugly, and his brows and smile were full of wretchedness.
Especially after he saw Madam Qianrou's appearance and figure, his squinting eyes swept back and forth across Madam Qianrou's face, chest, lower body, and legs.
Although Mrs. Qianrou was naturally charming, she also hated this kind of look, so she gave him an annoyed look, "Have we met?"
The middle-aged man smiled and stroked his long beard, "Let me introduce you, I am the elder of the 'Tu Xianmen', Song Caiying."
"These are the disciples of my Tu Xian Sect!"
Following Song Caiying's introduction, Mrs. Qianrou also looked at the other dozen men and women behind him, only to find that... the male disciples of Tu Xianmen and Song Caiying were carved out of the same mold, and they all looked at them with squinting eyes. Looking at her made her loathe even stronger.
Song Caiying continued: "On the surface, my Tuxianmen is one of the twenty-seven sects of the Chu State, but in fact it is one of the sub-rudders of the Nine Nether Demon Palace of the Chu State."
"I believe Mrs. Qianrou already knows about our existence. After all, the establishment of Cangmang City, I, Jiuyou Demon Palace also contributed a lot."
"This time, I came to visit the Lord of Cangmang City under the order of the Demon Palace, and also to obtain the resources that my Jiuyou Demon Palace deserves."
Song Caiying went straight to the point and asked for resources directly, which made Mrs. Qianrou and Jing Ming's expressions suddenly changed, and they both showed gloomy expressions.
