Chapter 188 Reaction, response

"Father, how's the situation?"

Back at the Zheng family's residence, Zheng Zhiling asked.

Although he didn't think the Yan family had anything to hide, he was a little curious.

His father, Zheng Huayin, did not rush to reply. Instead, he took out a booklet and at the same time recalled every detail of his contacts with the Yan family, not leaving out any trace.

This book contains information about the Yan family, especially those who appeared later.

"Yan Xianwang, Yan Xianzong, Yan Qinghan, Lu Yijun, Yan Ruiping, Yan Ruiyi." Zheng Huayin murmured several names while looking at them.

Then, a light suddenly flashed in his eyes, and his eyes fell on the information about Yan Ruiyi.

He pointed at the other person's portrait and said suddenly: "There is something wrong with this Yan Ruiyi."

Following his son's confused look, Zheng Huayin explained:

"This Yan Ruiyi is too mediocre. He has no characteristics in appearance or character, and his cultivation level is also low. He only practices the ninth level of Qi."

"There are only two Qi practitioners in the Yan family, one is him and the other is Yan Qinghan."

"Everyone else has foundation-building skills and possesses special abilities. Even Yan Qinghan, she is also a swordsman genius and has the opportunity to enter Cui Wei Sword Pavilion, but Yan Ruiyi is so ordinary."

Zheng Huayin said as the other party's appearance appeared in his mind.

He had seen the latter with his own eyes.

Just an ordinary qi-training monk, the kind who can't be found in a crowd.

If the Yan family could see Zheng Huayin's thoughts, they would be extremely surprised, because Yan Ruiyi is Yan Qingxuan's pseudonym.

Zheng Huayin's eyes flashed and he continued his analysis: "The Yan family came to the Central Plains in a big way. It is impossible to bring useless people with them. Yan Ruiyi showed that they are dispensable."

"Moreover, every time Yan Ruiyi goes out on a mission, there are monks from the late stage of foundation establishment of the Yan family who will follow her, regardless of whether the mission is dangerous or difficult."

"What does this mean?"

"It shows that the Yan family attaches great importance to him, and they do this out of the deep desire to protect him, and they are worried that something will go wrong with him and follow him at any time."

After listening to his father's words, Zheng Zhiling came back to his senses and thought carefully along the former's train of thought. This was indeed the case.

This Yan Ruiyi is so ordinary, so ordinary that she seems to be deliberately trying to reduce other people's attention to her.

Often such people will hide a lot of secrets.

But then he thought again, Zheng Zhiling often had contact with the Yan family, so Yan Ruiyi looked familiar to him, but after more than a month, he couldn't see any clues.

After all, what Zheng Huayin said was just speculation without substantial evidence.

It is impossible for the Zheng family to directly arrest the other party for interrogation.

"Dad, is it possible that there is really no one left in the Yan family, so that's why you brought such a clan member out?"

"It's not impossible, so we still have to try it again."

"How to test?"

Zheng Huayin's eyes were dark and he spoke slowly: "You can send a mission to the other party alone, let him go alone, and then bribe the foundation-building casual cultivator to kill him. If this Yan Ruiyi is really unusual, the Yan family will protect it secretly. As long as the protector shows up, we can confirm Yan Ruiyi's identity and continue with the next action."

Zheng Zhiling felt that this matter was feasible, and that letting loose cultivators take action would also clear the relationship between the Zheng family.

"What if the other party has no one to protect him?"

"If an ordinary qi practitioner dies, he will die." Zheng Huayin continued without emotion: "By the way, Zhiling, you will be watching from the outside to see who from the Yan family is it." hand."

"Yes." The latter was shocked.

……

Another half day passed.

On this day, Yan Qingxuan received a task assigned by the Zheng family.

He was following a qi-training monk named Zhang Heng, who belonged to a vassal force of the Zheng family. The Zheng family suspected that he had colluded with the Cui family.

This task is not difficult. The other party's cultivation level is not high, and a ninth-level qi-training monk can easily accomplish it.

Moreover, many people in the Yan family are now on missions, and even Yan Qinghan has been dispatched.So it finally fell on Yan Qingxuan alone.

The last time Zheng Huayin's test came and went quickly, the Yan family, especially Yan Qingxuan, did not show any obvious flaws.

But one must lead to another, unless the Zheng family's suspicion is completely dispelled.

Yan Qingxuan looked at the task list in his hand, thoughtfully.

After that, he reported all the circumstances to Yan Xinyuan, and then went to perform the task.

Soon, with the help of the portrait, Yan Qingxuan discovered Zhang Heng in a teahouse. He had a old-fashioned look and simple clothes.

As if he had received something, the moment the disguised Yan Qingxuan entered the teahouse, the other party got up and went out through the other door.

The former naturally had no intention of staying any longer and followed him.

Yan Qingxuan's ability to conceal his aura is of course unparalleled. Not to mention a small amount of Qi training, even ordinary foundation-building monks would find it difficult to detect any abnormalities.

Especially when it comes to emotional management, even Zheng Huayin couldn't figure it out.

So there was no risk of him being exposed along the way.

The two of them left Huangjiang City one after another and headed towards the wild mountains and forests.

The direction there is completely opposite to the Zheng family's territory.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, just when Yan Qingxuan was still wondering when this person came out to do what he did, Zhang Heng's figure suddenly disappeared.

Yan Qingxuan's expression turned solemn, he secretly screamed something bad, quickly activated his magic power, and dodged sideways.

Then a beam of light landed where it originally stood.

Zhang Heng disappeared and was replaced by a masked man in black. Judging from the aura emanating from his body, he was at the early stage of foundation building. There was a bright golden hook floating around his body. It seems that the previous attack was issued by it.

At the same time, a voice sounded in Yan Qingxuan's heart: "Qingxuan, be careful, wait for me to come to your rescue."

The person who conveyed the message was Yan Lingzhang.

But his proposal was rejected by Yan Qingxuan.

The latter is for Qi training and cannot transmit sounds over long distances. It can only use coded sign language to indicate that it is safe and does not require rescue.

Moreover, Yan Qingxuan also realized at this moment that this was probably a test by the Zheng family.

And it's specifically for yourself.

Because the person who came was using a magical weapon, and the dignified foundation-building monk didn't even have a spiritual weapon, that could only mean that the other party was a casual cultivator.

And just one person, if his identity is exposed, the attack and killing will not be smaller than the battle when he hunted Uncle Cui Jun.

This shows that the person behind the scenes does not really want him to die.

After much deliberation, it was the Zheng family.

It was obvious that the other party had already suspected his identity.

Since the more the other party wants to know, the less you can let the other party succeed, no matter what the other party's purpose is.

Yan Qingxuan entered a fighting posture. His attention was not entirely on the menacing man in black in front of him, but more on inspecting the surroundings. He knew that people from the Zheng family must be ambushing in the dense forest, monitoring his every move.

With calculations in mind, his actions naturally have a direction.

Faced with the attack from the monks in black, Yan Qingxuan's first choice was to escape the Renshui Yin Thunder to block his vision and breath.

He is also waiting for an opportunity to completely confirm his identity and completely escape the attention of the Zheng family.

If the Zheng family sent someone from the Zheng family, he would still be in trouble.

But if it’s just a casual cultivator who comes to buy money, then that’s an easy solution.

As long as he kills the opponent without exposing his swordsmanship, the Zheng family's suspicion of him will be dispelled.

Moreover, Yan Qingxuan also has this ability.
