The leaders of the Five Elements Alliance control the highest secrets of The Way of the Extraordinary. Is it the same for the leaders of evil organizations?
Zhang Yuanqing didn't open his eyes immediately, maintaining his stiff posture, thinking about the information obtained from Xiahou Tianyuan's memory.
He suddenly thought of the conversation between the Devil Monarch and the members of the Association of Beauty Gods. That woman tempted the Devil Monarch to meet the president of the Association of Beauty Gods, and the bargaining chip was the highest secret of The Way of the Extraordinary.
If the leaders of the alliance control the so-called ultimate secret, then the official research on The Way of the Extraordinary is actually very thorough, it's just that the bottom and middle-level personnel don't have the authority to know. I wonder if the elder-level The Way of the Extraordinary know about it? Well, Xiahou Xin knows something, so the elders must also know, but they shouldn't control it...
The Dark Night Rose is indeed plotting a lot. The leader of this organization, even if he hasn't reached the level of the alliance leader, is not far behind." Zhang Yuanqing opened his eyes and met a pair of deep, dark eyes.
"How is it?" Fu Qingyang asked.
"Some gains." Zhang Yuanqing told him the results of the spirit questioning.
Fu Qingyang frowned and remained silent. The handsome and three-dimensional face of the Director became even more like a sculpture. After a while, he slowly nodded: "Xiahou Chi is not the most outstanding among the descendants of the Xiahou ancestors, but his ambition is not small."
Zhang Yuanqing didn't understand immediately, but realized a few seconds later that Fu Qingyang was analyzing the reason why Xiahou Chi had joined the Dark Night Rose.
He seems to be gradually regarding me as a "same-level" smart person, thinking that I can understand with a simple explanation? This is a good thing, but it will be very tiring." Zhang Yuanqing said:
"Xiahou Tianyuan's understanding of the Dark Night Rose is very limited. He should just be an external member."
Zhang Yuanqing seized the opportunity to retaliate. The other meaning of this sentence is: It's time to kill Xiahou Xin.
Fu Qingyang nodded: "I have already gathered manpower and will set off now to arrest Xiahou Xin."
The two returned to the first floor along the stairs.
At the stairwell, Ling Jun, wearing capri pants, flip-flops, and a loose short-sleeved shirt, leaned against the handrail in a charming pose, smilingly saying:
"What intelligence did you extract from Xiahou Tianyuan?"
Fu Qingyang said indifferently:
"He doesn't have access to confidential information. To find out some of the Dark Night Rose members lurking in the branch, we have to start with Xiahou Xin."
Ah, Zhang Yuanqing was taken aback, thinking how could such confidential information be told to this squinting-eyed man from the Taiyi Sect?
As a scout, Fu Qingyang noticed his subordinate's surprise and explained:
"It doesn't matter, he is a member of the 'White Tiger Guard' that I established and is a trustworthy companion."
White Tiger Guard? Zhang Yuanqing expressed his doubts with his eyes.
Ling Jun maintained his charming leaning posture and smiled:
"Do you know why wild The Way of the Extraordinary still form folk organizations in addition to official organizations?"
Mutual help? That's not right. The correct way for The Way of the Extraordinary to survive is to lie low. After all, if there is no reputation value, killing each other among members of the same faction does not deduct morality points." Zhang Yuanqing pondered:
"Sharing strategies?"
If there has to be a reason, that's probably it.
Ling Jun nodded: "Partly right, but what dispels suspicion and vigilance among practitioners is not strategies, but something called a gang order."
"Gang order?" As a game enthusiast, Zhang Yuanqing heard a familiar name.
"A gang order is a kind of item. Its function is to allow The Way of the Extraordinary to establish their own power. You are young, so this concept should be clear."
Ling Jun popularized:
"Gang orders have many benefits, such as practitioners' attributes being given certain bonuses in the spiritual realm; extra experience rewards during mission settlements; exclusive dungeons for gangs; gang-exclusive missions; and the ability to team up with gang members to enter dungeons. Only grouping members of the same level has many benefits."
"You should know that the Five Elements Alliance is an alliance formed by five major organizations. Initially, the five major organizations started from small gangs and gradually developed into the strongest five forces in the spiritual realm."
Speaking of this, Ling Jun looked at Fu Qingyang and smiled: "As the gang leader, you get the biggest attribute bonus."
No wonder the Five Elements Alliance has so many factions, no wonder Guan Ya told me that I was a member of the White Tiger Soldiers, and I would probably join the gang when my level went up. And the gang leader is that female marshal. So there is a gang order. If I can get a gang order, I can form my own power and specialize in recruiting informants, such as the Palace Master of Zisha and Master Wuhen." Zhang Yuanqing asked with great interest:
"How do you get a gang order?"
Fu Qingyang replied: "Complete a multi-player competitive dungeon and lead the team to victory as the leader, there is a certain chance to reward a gang order."
Ling Jun hummed: "Fu Qingyang had good luck when he was in the Extraordinary stage and obtained a level 2 gang order."
"Can gangs be repeated?" Zhang Yuanqing suddenly thought that if the predecessor of the Five Elements Alliance was the five major gangs, then with Fu Qingyang's identity, he must have already joined the White Tiger Soldiers.
"Of course, there is no conflict." Ling Jun squinted and smiled:
"For example, I am from the Taiyi Sect, the Hundred Flowers Association, and the White Tiger Guard formed by Fu Qingyang at the same time. In this way, when entering a dungeon, as long as I am matched with any one of the three major forces, I have a bonus. And if I am matched with practitioners from the three major gangs at the same time, I can only choose one out of three."
Good heavens, so you are a slave of three families! Zhang Yuanqing squinted at him.
Being able to become a member of the "White Tiger Guard" shows that Fu Qingyang trusts him very much.
At this moment, Fu Qingyang looked towards the hall and said indifferently:
Let's chat later, it's time to leave."
A group of people just entered the hall, it was Bai Long, Qing Teng, Guan Ya, Jiang Jingwei, and acting squad leader Teng Yuan.
Although the number of people is small, they are all elites.
Jiang Jingwei put her hands on her hips, walking with a cocky gait, and laughed from a distance:
Poker face man, squinty eye, we meet again.
The fiery red hair swayed back and forth, the little girl walked over and slapped Zhang Yuanqing's shoulder hard: "You're here too."
Her height only reached Zhang Yuanqing's chest, and she had to stand on tiptoe to reach it.
Damn it, this girl has great strength... Zhang Yuanqing secretly gritted his teeth.
"Long time no see, Jingwei!" Ling Jun stepped forward and rubbed the girl's head angrily: "Is Brother Xu doing well?"
"Don't touch my head." Jiang Jingwei was furious and bumped her head over.
Ling Jun nimbly dodged.
Zhang Yuanqing quickly grabbed the girl's soft little hand to prevent her from meeting with the dog poop.
Fu Qingyang said: "Let's go!"
Squad leader Teng Yuan nodded first, then looked at Zhang Yuanqing and said, "One thousand yuan subsidy for one mission."
"Thank you, squad leader!" Zhang Yuanqing said loudly.
Four business cars drove into the Junli Hotel, and the group took the elevator directly to the 39th floor where Xiahou Xin and his bodyguards were staying.
The entire floor was booked by the Xiahou family, and the corridor was quiet.
Fu Qingyang led the team to the presidential suite at the end of the corridor. He did not ring the doorbell, but listened for a moment, frowning:
"There is no one in the room. Guan Ya, go see if the others in the Xiahou family are there."
Guan Ya immediately knocked on the door next to the presidential suite. The door was opened by a middle-aged man in a black suit, tall and thin, with a stern face.
"Who are you looking for?"
The middle-aged man in the black suit scrutinized the group with sharp eyes.
Guan Ya stared at him for a few times, confirmed that this was The Way of the Extraordinary, and said coldly:
"We are official practitioners from Kangyang District. We have something to ask Xiahou Xin. Where is he?"
"People from the authorities?" The middle-aged man in the black suit frowned: "Mr. Xiahou Xin is resting in the room."
Guan Ya shook her head: "He is not in the room."
The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment and replied steadily: "I'll call him."
He took out his mobile phone from his pocket and dialed Xiahou Xin's number.
After a while, the thin bodyguard put down his phone and said helplessly:
"Mr. Xiahou Xin did not go out today, at least I did not receive an order to go out. You can wait here, or you can go back first. When he comes back, I will inform him."
Guan Ya turned to look at Fu Qingyang.
Fu Qingyang said expressionlessly: "Call the hotel manager to open the door."
"You cannot enter Mr. Xiahou Xin's room without permission," the middle-aged bodyguard said in a deep voice.
"Don't agree? One-on-one fight?" Jiang Jingwei put her hands on her hips, her temper fiery.
Squad leader Teng Yuan pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and said with a dazed look: "I will apply for work-related injury for you."
"I'm very strong, I won't be injured." Jiang Jingwei was not convinced.
Squad leader Teng Yuan said indifferently: "I'm just informing you of employee benefits."
"Good leader!" Zhang Yuanqing gave a thumbs up: "Leader, I feel a little hot, can I apply for a high-temperature subsidy?"
Squad leader Teng Yuan nodded, "Write an application for me later."
Fu Qingyang silently watched this scene, considering whether to disband and reorganize the second team, or recall Li Dongze in advance. After waiting a few minutes, Guan Ya returned with a hotel staff member in the name of a security guard.
Everyone gave way to the staff member. She took out her employee card and swiped it to open the door to the presidential suite.
"Click!"
The moment the staff member twisted the doorknob, everyone present felt an invisible "barrier" shatter, turning into a slight breeze, sweeping through the corridor.
Fu Qingyang narrowed his eyes and took the lead to step into the suite.
Zhang Yuanqing and others followed behind him. The living room was empty. As the leader, Fu Qingyang stood in the hall, and Teng Yuan, who was passive and lacked enthusiasm for life, did not move either. The others checked the toilet, study, bedroom, etc.
Jiang Jingwei twisted open the bedroom door, glanced inside, and suddenly looked back and shouted:
"He's here!"
Everyone immediately gathered around. The bedroom curtains were tightly closed, and the light was dim. A figure lay quietly on the bed.
Ling Jun turned on the light with a "snap".
The person lying on the bed was Xiahou Xin, his body stiff and motionless.
Captain Qing Teng came to the bedside in high heels, checked it, and said in a deep voice:
"He's dead. According to the degree of stiffness of the body, it has been more than five hours."
Xiahou Xin is dead? Dead at this juncture?! Zhang Yuanqing didn't know whether to be happy or heavy for a moment.
Xiahou Xin died too coincidentally.
The bodyguard who followed them in looked at Xiahou Xin's body, first in disbelief, and then in horror after hearing Captain Qing Teng's words:
"That's not right, Mr. Xiahou Xin ordered breakfast at 9:30 this morning."
And the current time is 11:00 a.m.
Fu Qingyang's expression remained unchanged: "Bai Long, Qing Teng, Jiang Jingwei, Teng Yuan, you guys go outside first."
After these few people left, Fu Qingyang closed the bedroom door. He looked at Zhang Yuanqing and said:
"The degree of stiffness of the body may not be able to truly reflect the time of death. Do you remember how Heng Xing Wu Ji died?"
Zhang Yuanqing suddenly realized: "The one who killed Xiahou Xin was a Night Walker?"
Fu Qingyang nodded slightly: "The high-level members of the Dark Night Rose are Night Walkers."
Guan Ya furrowed her brows deeply: "So, Xiahou Xin was silenced by the Dark Night Rose?"
Zhang Yuanqing couldn't help but glance at the old driver. Ordinary official practitioners don't have the authority to know this information. It seems that Guan Ya has obtained a lot of important information from Fu Qingyang in private.
Well, they are cousins.
"We just killed Xiahou Tianyuan, and Xiahou Xin was silenced? How is this possible? Even if the information is leaked, it can't be this fast." Zhang Yuanqing also knows some reasoning, but he feels it is very unreasonable. At this time, Ling Jun leaned against the wall and squinted:
If the one who did it was a high-level Night Walker, they may not need information."
"What do you mean?" Zhang Yuanqing didn't understand, but Fu Qingyang "hmm"ed and said:
"Yuan Shi, go see if Xiahou Xin's spiritual body is still there."
"Why doesn't the Night Walker need information? I hate the way you guys talk." Zhang Yuanqing walked to the bed, his eyes surging with darkness, trying to communicate with the remnant spirit in the corpse.
A few seconds later, the darkness in his eyes faded, and he shook his head at Fu Qingyang and the other two:
"The spiritual body is gone."
Fu Qingyang had expected it, so he was not surprised when he heard this. He looked at Zhang Yuanqing and said, "High-level Night Walkers have the ability to see fate. If Xiahou Xin happened to meet that murderer, he would see the direction of fate."
Night Walkers also have this ability? See the direction of fate. Well, we came here this time to quickly arrest Xiahou Xin, kill him and do spirit questioning." Zhang Yuanqing was shocked for a while.
Controlling the power of Taiyin and Sun, and being able to see fate, how terrifying are high-level Night Walkers?
His expression immediately changed: "Then is Xiahou Chi also in danger?"
If he is a high-level member of the Dark Night Rose, after seeing Xiahou Xin's fate and realizing that Xiahou Chi's lineage has been exposed, he will definitely continue to kill people and silence them.
"Don't worry!" Ling Jun smiled:
"Xiahou Chi is imprisoned in Dog Elder's zoo. It's not so easy to kill him and silence him."
"How can you call the elder Dog?" Zhang Yuanqing was shocked.
Ling Jun: "I didn't call the elder Dog."
"Dog Ling Jun!"
"Why are you scolding people?"
"That's right, so why are you scolding the elder."
Fu Qingyang gave a cold look, interrupting the conversation between the two. He found that Yuan Shi had a bad habit, which was being too active.
He can chat with anyone, and he can laugh, get angry, and scold with anyone.
In the business car on the way back, Fu Qingyang dialed Elder Teddy's number.
"Elder, Xiahou Xin has been silenced."
"Understood."
Fu Qingyang said in a deep voice: "The Dark Night Rose is racing against time with us. The general physical examination has been postponed, and the Xiahou family's clue has been broken here again. Our search for the Black Impermanence has returned to the starting point."
In addition, we have now alerted the snake. The Dark Night Rose will definitely seize the time to contact the Black Impermanence. Elder, we don't have much time left. The only breakthrough point now is Xiahou Chi."
There was silence on the other end of the phone, and he said:
"Xiahou Chi is at the peak of the Saint Realm. One step further is the Dominator. To kill him, we must convene the other four elders to discuss, and we must communicate with the Xiahou family. This takes time. Let's put the Dark Night Rose line on hold for now."
"Okay!" Fu Qingyang's tone was calm, and there was no expression on his face.
After ending the call, he leaned on the seat and closed his eyes without saying a word.
In another car, Zhang Yuanqing frowned:
Xiahou Chi can't be moved for a while. The plan to search for the Black Impermanence by following the vines through the Dark Night Rose has failed. Well, it's back to the starting point again.
Continue to search for the Witch Gu Master in a haystack.
"Alas, if it continues to be delayed, the servants of the Wriggling-Eyed Judge will break out one after another, and the leader of the Dark Night Rose will successfully meet with the Black Impermanence. The official's face will be greatly lost, and the Black Impermanence, who successfully solves the problem, will be another big scourge."
As smart as he is, he can't think of a better way for a while.
Zhang Yuanqing wanted to find a teammate to discuss, but he glanced at Jiang Jingwei on the left and then at squad leader Teng Yuan, who had a passive attitude. The old driver took her cousin's car.
I'd better think for myself, he sighed.
"How did that guy die? How boring. I thought I could fight." Jiang Jingwei's voice was clear and sweet. She didn't understand what happened today, and she looked regretful.
"I heard Guan Ya say that you don't go to school anymore?" Zhang Yuanqing asked.
"I do, I just don't go to school anymore." Jiang Jingwei squatted on the wide seat and said, "My dad said that the teachers in the school don't know how to teach."
"He hired a tutor for me. I beat up every one he hired."
Speaking of this, the little girl showed a smug look on her delicate and lovely face.
"And then there are no more tutors?"
Jiang Jingwei's little face collapsed: "Later, he found a Fire Master in the Saint Realm to be my tutor. The tutor beat me every time he saw me."
Is this the legendary, using magic to defeat magic, using a Fire Master to defeat a Fire Master? Zhang Yuanqing's mind was full of slots.
Late at night.
Kangyang District, riverside bridge hole.
The night in Songhai has no moonlight, and the light from the street lamps cannot reach this dark corner.
A figure wearing a windbreaker, a baseball cap, and a mask walked out of the night and stopped in front of the bridge hole. He looked at the dark bridge hole and said in a low voice:
"You are finally willing to respond to my contact. The way of heaven is unfair."
A cold snort came from the bridge hole:
"Heng Xing Wu Ji is dead. The boss is very dissatisfied with you, and the little trust he had is also being worn away."
The figure wearing the baseball cap said in a deep voice:
"Heng Xing Wu Ji's death was an accident. Who would have thought that Yuan Shi Tianzun had a trump card? And because of this, our Dark Night Rose has also been exposed in the official's sight."
"What's worse is that the Xiahou family has also been exposed. Fortunately, the great guardian was vigilant and killed Xiahou Xin, otherwise even I would be in danger of being exposed."
The person in the bridge hole said:
"This is also why I responded to you. The official is gradually approaching us. Continuing to delay will not be good for anyone. The boss needs to see your sincerity."
The figure wearing the baseball cap said: "What does the Black Impermanence want us to do?"
The person in the bridge hole said coldly: "Kill Yuan Shi Tianzun and avenge Heng Xing Wu Ji."
The figure wearing the baseball cap was silent for a moment, and said:
"Okay!"
"Then, do you have an answer to the question I asked you?"
The person in the bridge hole said:
"The Wriggling-Eyed Judge was indeed killed by the Devil Monarch. Among the people present at the time, besides the boss, there was another guy whose spiritual realm is called the Teen Soldier King."
"Teen Soldier King..." The man wearing the baseball cap muttered to himself. A few seconds later, he said, "Who is he? Is there any information about him in reality?"
"Yes! The boss knows his information."
The man wearing the baseball cap's tone suddenly became urgent: "I want all his information."
"Okay, in three days, if I receive the news that Yuan Shi Tianzun has been killed, I will give you the Teen Soldier King's information in the same place." After the person in the bridge hole finished speaking, he asked again:
"What are you looking for him for?"
The man wearing the baseball cap said indifferently: "You don't need to know."
Zhang Yuanqing, who was in a light sleep, was awakened by the static from the Mao Wang speaker.
This piece of junk always plays audio without warning... He lifted the quilt, came to the desk, opened the drawer, and took out the Mao Wang speaker.
It is worth mentioning that there was also his aunt's white lace bra in the drawer. Zhang Yuanqing originally planned to take the bra to the bottom of his aunt's bed, but he came back late today, so he decided to wait until his aunt went to work tomorrow. To prevent the Devil Monarch and the sound of women playing poker from waking up his family, Zhang Yuanqing held the Mao Wang speaker, ready to enter Night Wandering at any time.
The static sound lasted for a few seconds, and a familiar voice came:
"What do you want from me? Didn't we agree not to meet again?"
Big Brother Soldier's voice. Zhang Yuanqing opened his eyes wide.
Then, it was the Devil Monarch's voice:
"I am about to touch that realm, but before that, I want to kill the Wriggling-Eyed Judge first. Teen Soldier King, I want you to help me. Don't you want to get rid of the Wriggling-Eyed Judge's control?"
