CHAPTER TEXT:
After the shock, Lan Caiwei slowly exhaled and looked at Chen Chu with fiery eyes, “I didn’t expect that little Brother Chu had such an astonishing record in the past.”
Chen Chu shook his head and replied, “Actually, I was somewhat lucky to win at that time. If Akunus’s clone had held on a little longer, I might not have been able to withstand the burst and would have lost first.”
Chen Chu was not being humble. Although his Imperial Dragon form was powerful, it could only sustain its explosive strength for a few minutes.
However, Lan Caiwei and the other three had already been shaken several times in half a day and no longer believed in his modesty.
This guy was simply a monster.
At this moment, Lan Caiwei’s expression became serious: “It’s obvious that the extraordinarily talented little Brother Chu has already been targeted by the Infernal Demon Race, and he belongs to the highest bounty category.”
“In this situation, the abnormal reaction of Jincheng Min upon hearing the name Chu the Dominator is indeed suspicious.”
“Of course, as elder cultivators, we cannot overlook their past contributions. Without evidence, we should not make rash conclusions.”
Chen Chu nodded, “That’s natural. I just find his reaction a bit strange.”
“Whether he is human or ghost, we’ll know if we follow him. If he really has a problem, he will definitely want to relay the news as soon as possible.”
“Otherwise, after we deal with those mountain behemoths and leave, it will be even more difficult to grasp Brother Chu’s detailed whereabouts.”
“However, if Jincheng Min really has issues, Yuan Fei cannot be ruled out as a suspect, so we need to split our forces.”
“Captain, you four will go one way, pretending to investigate the situation of the mountain behemoths. When you encounter places with cameras, let one or two people reveal themselves to stabilize Yuan Fei.”
“As for me and Brother Chu, we will follow closely to see what’s going on, to avoid making a mistake.”
“Alright, you all be careful. High-level cultivators have sharp senses that resonate with heaven and earth, so it’s best to maintain a distance of over a kilometer.”
After briefly explaining the situation, the group’s figures flickered and split into two batches, disappearing into the night.
Among them, Chen Chu and Qing Qiu Ming Hui were shrouded under the dark sky, blending with the surrounding darkness, moving silently.
This special ability from the Void Reversal Eyes, while not enhancing combat power, was quite convenient in this situation.
Within Chen Chu’s controlled range, they concealed their presence, erasing fluctuations, while the density of the darkness ahead formed a black veil, blocking the vision of several people.
In this situation, as long as it wasn’t someone like Chen Chu who had cultivated the Eye of Insight and was sensitive to sight, even if Jincheng Min was a high-level cultivator, he would not be able to sense any abnormalities.
In fact, Chen Chu was somewhat surprised by today’s discovery.
He originally planned to familiarize himself with the situation, and after completing this ‘small task,’ he would use the Secret Technique of the Illusionary Demon of the Vast Sea to alter his life aura, changing his appearance to explore deeper into the mythical world.
Who would have thought he would catch a big fish right after arriving?
Actually, earlier on the fighter jet, when he heard Qing Qiu Ming Hui say that the mine’s supervisor was an elder cultivator, Chen Chu had kept a cautious eye.
Because back at Base One, he had specifically looked through some traitor data.
Those documents mentioned that most of the traitors in recent years were elder cultivators who had given up hope of advancement and struggled to progress in their cultivation.
Since the New Era commenced, with the development of the times, aside from a few exceptionally gifted prodigies, the qualifications of each generation of cultivators have improved increasingly with time.
