[This voice pierced directly into the bottom of your heart.]
[Faced with such questioning, you decided...]
[There was not the slightest trace of panic in your heart, because at this time, you had long made sufficiently adequate preparations. Facing this question, you also already had your answer.]
[Your face still remained just as bewildered and blank, and your voice continued to speak intermittently:] (Custom input)
["Yes, there was... In Jinling, the Shen family... is also related to Changle Palace, annihilated, the Shen family..."]
["Hm?"]
[Cui Jianxing's brow raised slightly. This time, he looked at you with genuine astonishment, because he truly did not know that the annihilation of the Shen family was actually related to you.]
[When in Jinling, the cause of the Shen family's annihilation was that the Third Madame made a move.]
[Furthermore, to conceal this news so that the Third Madame, Bai Zhiyun, would not be hated by Changle Palace, he even took the initiative to help Bai Zhiyun cover up this news.]
[However, this was not the time to delve deeply into this. Chen Wujiu continued to ask:]
["Besides this? Is there anything else?"]
Looking at the continued inquiry on the screen, Chen Xuan's brow raised slightly. However, according to his original thought, his subsequent acquaintance and mutual understanding with Jin Xilian and Bai Lianxiang absolutely could not be admitted!
But, for no reason, Chen Xuan kept feeling as if something was not right!
But what exactly was not right?
[Facing Chen Wujiu's inquiry, your face once again surfaced with that bewilderment and blankness you had grown accustomed to.]
[You decided...]
[1. Flatly deny it. You have not, under any circumstances, had any contact with anyone from Changle Palace!]
[2. Tell the truth. State your subsequent acquaintance with Bai Lianxiang and disclose all the circumstances of going out to sea afterward.]
[3. Hide the truth. You still state your encounter with Bai Lianxiang, but conceal your knowledge of the true relationship with Bai Lianxiang.]
[4. Custom input.]
[Note: This choice only has a 30-second thinking time. If an answer is not completed within the thinking time, it will default to option 1.]
The countdown for the choice had already started to appear.
Fine beads of sweat began to appear on Chen Xuan's forehead.
He suddenly felt that something really seemed not right! He looked at these full four options, blinking rapidly as his brain began to operate at flying speed.
Not right! What exactly was not right?
Fortunately, through the feedback in the game, the massive increase in Comprehension caused Chen Xuan's brain to turn extremely quickly. In this instant, almost everything he had experienced since entering this Six Doors Yamen...
All the feedback on the screen, at this moment, all followed and appeared in Chen Xuan's mind.
Furthermore, under the blessing of this terrifying Comprehension, not a single word was missed.
Chen Xuan frowned. He pursed his lips. Looking at the four choices present, in this final instant, he still abandoned his original idea and instead directly chose option 4!
[Your long period of not speaking caused Chen Wujiu to frown slightly. The deep purple deep in his eyes seemed to have become even richer at this moment.]
[He continued to ask in a deep voice, "What? Is there any more or not?"]
["I... also don't know... don't know if there is... I suspect, I suspect there is someone who is... is a Changle Palace person..."] (Custom input)
[Your intermittent voice followed as you spoke.]
[As soon as these words came out, you clearly saw Cui Jianxing and Chen Wujiu's eyes light up slightly, though they still froze for a moment.]
[...]
However, when seeing this scene, Chen Xuan already had almost no mood to continue staring firmly at this screen.
He seemed to have thought of something. Although his gaze was still staring without blinking, his palm reached toward another part of the tablet. He finally figured out what exactly was going on with that faint feeling of something being not right!
He subconsciously grabbed the mobile phone to the side. He almost took one look at the tablet screen, then one look at the mobile phone to the side.
He directly opened the Jianghu Group at the fastest speed. However, there was no rustle of leaves in the wind in the Jianghu Group. He frowned slightly.
He looked into the tablet screen once more.
[Sure enough, your words made Cui Jianxing and Chen Wujiu suddenly liven up. The latter's eyes narrowed once again:]
["What do you mean?"]
[Faced with their questioning, you decided...]
[This time, you seemed to have smoothed something out, and your speed of answering was quite a bit faster than just now:] (Custom input)
["I'm not completely... certain. That day, when Junior Martial Uncle Li was hunting me down... when I thought I... was about to be captured... a white-clothed... woman made a move and saved me... I don't know who she was..."]
[In your eyes, the purple light seemed even more lush at this moment. You also seemed to be pondering as you continued:] (Custom input)
["At that time... at that time, because I suffered injuries... and, that woman was very strong... I thanked her, and she said, fellow disciples... have no need for this... I was wary of her strength... and did not continue to ask, afraid of being, suspected... Later, while she was cultivating... I then secretly left... I... suspect, she might... be a Changle Palace disciple..."]
After saying all this, this time, Chen Xuan did not even pay attention to the feedback on the screen, nor did he pay attention to what Cui Jianxing and Chen Wujiu's subsequent reactions were.
Because Chen Xuan knew that right now, the crux of the matter actually was no longer here.
Under the circumstances of him holding the Vajra Seal in his hand, unless his own brain got muddled, otherwise, there was no reason to spit out any truth.
However, under the current circumstances, the true 'killing move' was in another place.
He could not wait to tap open his mobile phone, switching directly to the green bubble VX interface. Following that, he tapped open the avatar of a guy he had just added a few days ago, and without a second thought, directly made a phone call over.
A crisp ringtone sounded within this room under the dark night.
Chen Xuan pursed his lips, dully tapping the table to the side, revealing the anxiety and strands of unease in his heart at this moment.
Although the possibility was not one hundred percent, it was still that same saying: in this Jianghu, a bit of an accident meant life and death!
More importantly, once this accident really appeared, all the various things from before, even the cheating method of the Vajra Seal that he luckily encountered, would not even have the slightest meaning!
Fortunately, what made Chen Xuan breathe a slight sigh of relief was that he was not made to wait for too long. Very quickly, the other end of the phone call was connected.
"Brother Chen?"
That's right, the person on the other end of the phone was none other than Feng Ya!
It was exactly the current Shen Wuya!
And at this time, Chen Xuan also could not care about anything else, speaking straightforwardly and decisively:
"Brother Feng, right now, at the fastest speed, inform that Golden Lotus Holy Maiden beside you with one sentence: 'Twin lotuses on one stalk, the swimming fish enters the sea. The Vajra protects me, let the lotus remain at peace and not move.'"
"Wha... what do you mean?"
"Cut the crap and do as I say. Once this matter is over, I will give you that ginseng rootlet directly! Go quickly!"
Chen Xuan directly hung up the phone, the pupils of his eyes even slightly dilating because of this.
He now finally figured out what exactly was not right!
If he didn't guess wrong, at this moment, that nail in Six Doors whom he personally embedded in Changle Palace—namely Li Kuangge—was probably transmitting a secret message through his identity as a Changle Palace hidden operative right now!
The message was very simple:
Young Master Chen Qingyu, due to suspected collusion with the Changle Palace demonic cult, has already been arrested inside Six Doors!
As for this message, it was fine for Jin Xilian. This woman always knew what she wanted, and furthermore, she had the will but lacked the power.
But Bai Lianxiang was different. That night before, this woman had told him that on her body, there were some methods supposedly bestowed by her master, and once there truly was a life-and-death crisis, they could take effect!
Just in case she really thought he was detained, really thought his death was imminent, if this woman failed to see the situation clearly and just charged straight in to kill...
Then all the various efforts from before would completely be reduced to nothing!
