Under the silent gaze of the Giant King, Little Fatty Lei Zi prostrated himself, reporting Yuan Shi Tianzun's request for cooperation to the Great Elder of the Yao Nan Sect - the one beneath all. The hall was silent for a few seconds before the ethereal voice, indiscernible by gender or age, conveyed that behind the Chunyang Sect Leader was the Dark Rose.

As an excellent illusionist, Little Fatty understood what the "Great Elder" meant. Although the Dark Rose was not an evil organization, it was hostile to the official side. For the Nihility Sect, this was undoubtedly a good opportunity to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight.

However, the Chunyang Sect Leader was also an illusionist, with an instinctive thirst for the spiritual power of illusionists. Therefore, he was the Nihility Sect's enemy. "Who is the Dominator responsible for capturing the Chunyang Sect Leader?" The ethereal, unfathomable voice echoed from within the cloak.

"It's Hong Ying Elder of the Tai Yi Sect, and Elder Gao Feng of the Hangzhou Branch of the Five Elements Alliance," Little Fatty said. Exchanging basic information was a prerequisite for cooperation, and Yuan Shi Tianzun had already sent it to his mailbox. The Great Elder pondered again, and after a few breaths, slowly said, "Reply to him that you will negotiate the cooperation in two days." "Huh? Me?"

Little Fatty's expression immediately became strange, feeling like he was lifting a stone to drop it on his own foot.

It was expected that the Great Elder would agree to cooperate. The Southern Sect had already lost two Saints. As a small-numbered evil organization, Saints were very precious. Moreover, considering the Chunyang Sect Leader's rank, the loss of two Saints was just the beginning.

It was a wise decision to nip the threat in the bud, but why did it have to be him? He had just been promoted to Saint, and his good days were still ahead of him. He didn't want to be involved in this conflict. Little Fatty protested in his heart, but didn't dare say it aloud. The tall cloak giant lowered its head, gazing at him, as if a wave of countless voices converged, "Unwilling?"

Little Fatty was so frightened that he pressed his head against the ground, shouting, "This subordinate is willing to go through fire and water for the sect, sparing no effort!" "Very good," the voice lowered to a normal decibel level, and the cloak giant said, "What movements has Wang Shi Wu Hen made recently?"

"He will summon team members at the end of August to chant scriptures and lectures to dissolve resentment," Little Fatty reported frankly.

When he met Master Wu Hen that day, he had said that he was a member of the Nihility Sect. After joining the hotel, he frankly told Master Wu Hen that the Nihility Sect had ordered him to keep an eye on him. Master Wu Hen had agreed.

"Great Elder, Master Wu Hen avoids the world and has a different path from us, but he doesn't interfere with us. I think there's no need to deliberately pay attention to him," Little Fatty cautiously expressed his thoughts.

Inside the hall, a sigh echoed:

"Wang Shi Wu Hen was already a peak Dominator years ago. The Sect Leader said that he is very likely to take that step and reach the demigod level." Master Wu Hen was already approaching the demigod level. What did the Sect Leader mean by this? He... didn't want to see Master Wu Hen reach that level. Little Fatty was shocked, both surprised by Master Wu Hen's level and worried about the Sect Leader's attitude.

Just as he was about to probe, he suddenly saw the scenery in the hall become blurred. After passing through bizarre and hazy spaces, he opened his eyes. ...He had been sent out of the dream by the Great Elder. "Hoo~"

Little Fatty sat up, his brows furrowed, with a faint premonition of something bad. Unconsciously, he had already begun to miss the peaceful life here. There were no enemies, no pressure, and although delivering food every day was boring, it was fulfilling. He should go see Master Wu Hen. He got up from the bed and ran out of the room.

Zhang Yuanqing took the file folder, opened it, and quickly scanned the training class roster.

Most official Way of the Extraordinary only had one opportunity to enter Qin Feng, which was to survive the internship and become a formal official Way of the Extraordinary. Then, they would enter the academy for a seven-day training session to learn about various organizations and professions, including the Spirit Realm, of course. Zhang Yuanqing quickly flipped through the roster, noting the Night Watchers marked in red, thinking about comparing them one by one when Sun Miaomiao's list came over. Fu Qingyang leaned back in his chair and said:

"You want to check the identity of the Dark Rose leader through the training roster, but it's impossible because you've overlooked one thing." Zhang Yuanqing shifted his gaze from the file folder and looked over. "What is it?"

"Before the Chu family was exterminated, the Dark Rose had no leader. It's not hard to deduce that the Dark Rose leader was already dead at that time. He (she) relied on the Chu family's rule-type item - the Mother Goddess's Womb, to be resurrected," Fu Qingyang glanced at the file folder: "And Qin Feng Academy was only established four years ago, so the Dark Rose leader couldn't have entered Qin Feng." Zhang Yuanqing was stunned: "You're right..."

He had forgotten this detail. Qin Feng Academy had only been established for four years, and the deceased Dean Li Yanqi had mentioned it before, but at that time, all of his attention was on thinking about the identity of the armored man. Therefore, he hadn't remembered this detail.

Different professions have different characteristics. Photographic memory and auditory memory are passive skills of the Scholar profession, and scouts who are good at observation and reasoning are half. "But that's not right. If he hasn't been to Qin Feng and only heard that there are hidden missions in Qin Feng, how can he have wishes?" Zhang Yuanqing frowned.

Unless the Dark Rose leader had seen the Takamagahara key, like Fu Qingyang, and recognized the connection between the two, then he could deduce that there was a treasure behind the stone door.

But that was impossible. The Takamagahara key was only unearthed after World War II and had always been kept by the Thousand Crane Group. If the Dark Rose leader knew about this item, the Thousand Crane Group would have been reduced to ashes!

"He must have been to Qin Feng Academy. Only by going to Qin Feng Academy can he have a general understanding of the hidden missions," Zhang Yuanqing said firmly. Ling Jun, in the rest area, flirted with beauties on his phone and said indifferently:

"I advise you not to investigate! The Dark Rose leader is at a very high level. High-level Night Watchers can glimpse the trajectory of their own destiny through Star Observation. If you find out his identity, it will trigger a series of consequences, and he will be able to notice you through the trajectory of fate." The playboy had an air of enjoying life in time:

"It's good to live a low-key life, why look for death." "You're a crown prince, of course you don't understand the pressure on me, the Devil Lord's successor, the direct descendant of Zhang Zizhen. You just need to be responsible for sleeping with women," Zhang Yuanqing slandered in his heart.

.... Besides, he wasn't panicked because the Shard of Taiyin would interfere with any deduction about him. Any divination or deduction would show "normal". Fu Qingyang's gaze was cold. "So you're trash." "Boss is wise, Boss is really good at judging people," Zhang Yuanqing said loudly. Ling Jun lowered his head to look at his phone and sneered: "As expected of a family, they're very united externally."

Although the training roster from Qin Feng Academy was useless, Zhang Yuanqing was still flipping through it. "Boss, which term was the Fear King in?"

"The Class of 2020. Let me see what his Spirit Realm ID is." Fu Qingyang's face darkened, and he didn't say anything.

Ling Jun became interested instead. "I don't remember exactly which term, but it seems to be three years ago. You can flip through it." Three years ago... Zhang Yuanqing followed the dates and flipped to 2019. There were two terms in this training class, one Extraordinary and one Saint. Zhang Yuanqing's gaze quickly swept over and landed on a Spirit Realm ID, blurting out: "Dove of Freedom!"

"He couldn't help but laugh."

That was indeed the Fear King's style. So he had longed for freedom back then?

He remembered that Dean Li Yanqi had said that the Female Marshal and the Fear King were classmates in the same term, so he continued to examine the roster. His gaze suddenly paused on a certain name. "Boss, this Fu Qingxuan is..." He suddenly had a premonition, and a shocking guess floated into his mind.

The Female Marshal was not the first Way of the Extraordinary, and she was very young. Guan Ya had said that her cousin was exceptionally talented and was the only junior who was doted on by the clan elders. The Fu family was a senior Spirit Realm family in the White Tiger Legion.

Ling Jun and Fu Qingyang looked over at the same time. The latter said indifferently, "My older sister." The former added, "She is the Marshal of the White Tiger Legion."

It really was her... Even though Zhang Yuanqing had expected it, a stormy sea was still surging in his heart.

No wonder Fu Qingyang dared to scold the Marshal as trash, no wonder he was ambitious to enter the headquarters. Behind him, there was not only the Fu family, but also a Marshal sister. What a guy with a protagonist template, much better than Xiahou Aotian, that fake protagonist.

Wait, the Marshal was Fu Qingyang's own sister, Guan Ya's cousin, so wasn't he destined for rapid promotion!? But then he thought, he didn't know what the Female Marshal thought of Guan Ya's marriage. If she also agreed to the marriage, things would be bad. Although a thousand thoughts flashed through Zhang Yuanqing's mind in an instant, Fu Qingyang still keenly perceived the inner drama and said indifferently, "Trash doesn't manage things."

"In fact, every Alliance Leader is subject to the checks and balances of the headquarters. The affairs of the Five Elements Alliance are usually handled and decided by the headquarters. The Alliance Leader has a veto power, but cannot participate in specific affairs unless it is a major event concerning the survival of the Five Elements Alliance."

"These are the rules established by the five Alliance Leaders in the presence of the imperial court at the beginning of the establishment of the Five Elements Alliance." Because absolute power leads to absolute corruption. Zhang Yuanqing "Oh"ed, and then heard Fu Qingyang say: "Ling Jun, what does the Tai Yi Sect think of the Dark Rose?" The topic returned to business.

Zhang Yuanqing also put down the folder and looked at the playboy.

"How would I know," the playboy shrugged. "Such things are usually discussed at internal meetings of the elders, and we are not informed of the results. But it is certain that the Tai Yi Sect cannot find the Dark Rose leader."

"The Sect Leader is the strongest Night Watcher in the world, specializing in the stars. Even he can't do it?" Fu Qingyang frowned with his handsome sword-like brows. Ling Jun put down his phone and said seriously:

"You should know that Taiyin restrains the stars. After the Black Impermanence incident, the Tai Yi Sect conducted a large-scale examination, but nothing was found... I heard from Elder Zhao that the Dark Rose leader may specialize in Taiyin, and is a strong person who has touched the origin. He protects the members of the Dark Rose... Touched the origin?" Zhang Yuanqing's heart stirred. Could it be that the Dark Rose leader also controls the Shard of Taiyin?

Since the black crescent moon in the character card was a shard, there must be other shards. Then it was normal that the Tai Yi Sect Leader couldn't find the Dark Rose leader.

Of course, this didn't mean that the Sect Leader was inferior to the Dark Rose leader, it only meant that their specialties were different. The Dark Rose leader was better at hiding, but in terms of deduction and planning, he was weaker than the Tai Yi Sect... "Wait a minute!"

Zhang Yuanqing suddenly thought of something.

Although the Devil Lord was not a demigod, he also controlled the Shard of Taiyin, and Taiyin restrained Star Observation. Therefore, the Tai Yi Sect Leader couldn't calculate where the Devil Lord's successor was. By the same logic, the Tai Yi Sect Leader couldn't calculate the Devil Lord...

Then was the news about the Devil Lord's death that he announced really correct? In the early autumn heat, a chill surged in Zhang Yuanqing's heart.
