Moreover, Qin Chen had to control his questions and avoid touching the core secrets of Piao Miao Palace and the Law Enforcement Palace, or else it would trigger the Soul Banishment Spell, directly leading to the collapse of their souls.

Therefore, Qin Chen intentionally separated the two. If one inadvertently had their soul collapse, the other could still mitigate the risk.

Half an hour later.

Qin Chen had already gathered information about Ji Ruyue and You Qianxue.

After the journey to the Ancient Yu Realm, Piao Miao Palace placed a high emphasis on this batch of disciples, bringing everyone into the core disciple area of Piao Miao Palace for training. However, Ji Ruyue was supposed to be brought back to Piao Miao Palace, but a high-ranking member of the Ji family showed up and took Ji Ruyue back to the Ji family for training and seclusion.

"So, Qianxue should still be in Piao Miao Palace, while Ruyue has been taken back by the Ji family."

A sense of worry arose in Qin Chen's heart.

The so-called rigorous training indeed meant cultivation, but it also meant monitoring this batch of disciples, as they were aware of the collusion between Piao Miao Palace and the Demon Tribe. Naturally, Piao Miao Palace would not allow them the opportunity to speak recklessly outside.

Ruyue was also supposed to be taken to Piao Miao Palace, but the Ji family showed up and brought her back.

"This means the Ji family must know about the relationship between Piao Miao Palace and the Demon Tribe; otherwise, Piao Miao Palace would not agree to let the Ji family take Ruyue back."

Qin Chen's heart sank.

Could it be that the Ji family is collaborating with the Demon Tribe?

Thinking about it, as one of the high-ranking members of the Law Enforcement Palace, the Ji family couldn't possibly be unaware of the situation with the Demon Tribe. However, Qin Chen was still unclear about the depth of the Ji family's cooperation with the Demon Tribe—whether they were merely being used by Piao Miao Palace or were fully involved.

"So Ruyue's safety can be temporarily ensured, but Qianxue is the one in danger."

Qin Chen furrowed his brows.

To ascertain Qianxue's safety, he needed to enter Piao Miao Palace, which was no simple task.

"It seems I need to pay a visit to the Ji family."

In his previous life, the Ji family had a good relationship with Qin Chen. Naturally, he did not want the Ji family to be completely embroiled in this. At the same time, he wanted to learn about Qianxue's situation through Ruyue.

After understanding this information, Qin Chen began to inquire about the other situations within the Law Enforcement Palace.

Qi Xiong and Yuan Tuo were only branch leaders of the Law Enforcement Palace and did not know the true core information, but they were still clear on most matters.

Soon, Qin Chen gained an intuitive understanding of the current situation of the Law Enforcement Palace.

Upon this realization, Qin Chen couldn't help but gasp.

The development of the Law Enforcement Palace over the years was quite terrifying; it had infiltrated every corner of the continent. In the entire Martial Domain, branches of the Law Enforcement Palace were everywhere, and they had also formed collaborations with several top forces.

Furthermore, the Law Enforcement Palace was currently executing another plan: secretly manipulating the major imperial forces of the Martial Domain, bringing ordinary imperial forces like Gu Huacheng under their control.

If this plan succeeded, the entire Martial Domain would become the domain of the Law Enforcement Palace.

What alarmed Qin Chen even more was that upon his inquiry, he discovered another detail—that one of the commands from the headquarters of the Law Enforcement Palace was to investigate matters related to him, Qin Chen.

This made Qin Chen stand up abruptly.

The Law Enforcement Palace was actually investigating him?

This caused his heart to sink instantly.

Especially since, in addition to investigating him, any information related to him that was uncovered had to be reported to Piao Miao Palace.
