Being too ferocious because of caution

Chapter 838 Anxious

After everyone tidied up, they returned to an inn in the underworld.

It is heavily guarded by soldiers and protected by several queen gods, making it very safe.

Everyone was sitting in the post station drinking tea. After Zhao Yi called the followers from the underworld out, he said seriously to Chao Bi:

"Are you sure you remember correctly?"

Chao Xi nodded:

"I'm sure there's nothing wrong!"

"Those missing pages are the recorded Perseus Forest!"

He took a sip of tea and said mysteriously:

"You don't know something, sir. That place is not a good place to go!"

Ji Chen on the side raised his eyebrows and said:

"Senior Chao, no matter how dangerous the Pearl Forest is, is it more terrifying than the ancient battlefield?"

Chao Xi rubbed the teacup with his fingertips.

"You don't know something about this..."

"The Perle Forest is a very special area. Many of the laws of the new era have escaped in it, and there are still many creatures left over from the previous era!"

"After the new era came, their strength was severely weakened, and many former post-gods fell into great danger."

"But what they have fallen down is only their realm... Even if they cannot use the power of the laws of the new era, they are still frighteningly powerful!"

"And because they are not creatures of this era, many of their methods are unheard of and unseen by us. They are extremely weird. If we fight against them, there is a risk of sudden death at any time!"

The corner of Zhao Yi's mouth curled up in an inadvertent arc:

"You mean...the people of the church are targeting creatures from the last era?"

Chao Bi nodded, but quickly shook his head:

"It's possible... but based on my personal experience, it's unlikely."

Zhao Yi took a sip of tea calmly:

"Why?"

Chao Xi carefully raised his eyelids, glanced at Zhao Yi very quickly, and then continued to stare at his tea cup:

"Sir, please listen to my analysis——"

"Whether it is the church or Perseus Forest, they have a very long history of existence. This kind of behemoth was not formed overnight. After so many years, if the church is just for some creatures inside, it is impossible to wait until now to take action!"

"In my humble opinion, there must be a deeper secret hidden in the Pearl Forest. This secret was discovered by the church only in these years, and there is something terrible guarding this secret, which makes even the Skull Church feel afraid, so it is so late. Didn’t start…”

Zhao Yi glanced at him with a smile and patted Chao Bi on the shoulder.

"Lao Chao, I didn't see it, but you still have something!"

"Then what do you think you go to church for?"

Chao Bi shook his head very decisively:

"I don't know that."

After a pause, Chao Xi seemed to think of something again, and he meant something:

"...However, Po Shulin and Wu Jian are deeply involved. If you want to find out, why don't you go to the underworld to check?"

"As the managers of Wujian these years, the underworld must know much more information than us civilians..."

Zhao Yi turned around, looked out the door, and signaled the underworld attendant outside to close the door. Then he looked at the two people in the room mysteriously and said seriously:

"Actually, I have already inquired about the matter of Pershu Forest..."

"Do you know who is being held in that place?"

Both of them looked at Zhao Yi, but with different expressions.

Ji Chen's eyes were full of curiosity.

But Chao Bi had a hint of secret joy that was not easy to detect.

"Who is being imprisoned?"

Chao Xi asked hurriedly, trying to show his devotion.

Zhao Yi said softly:

"The former leader of the underworld - Emperor Dongyue!"

When the two heard this, they gasped!

"this……"

"Master Zhao, so...the rumors are true?!"

"What rumors?"

"It's about the ancient battlefield...The reason for the fighting that year was a coup to seize power."

Zhao Yi looked into Chao Xi's eyes and replied:

"It was indeed a coup."

"But it's not clear whether the purpose is to seize power."

Chao Xi nodded and continued:

"My lord, please continue to tell us about Emperor Dongyue."

Zhao Yi continued:

"The battle on the ancient battlefield was so violent that countless people died. If it was simply to seize power, it seems a bit unreasonable..."

"I found out from the secret files of the underworld that Emperor Dongyue was sealed in the amber forest and did not die."

"The Church of the Skull should also go for him. If we can find him first, we may be able to learn the truth about all this."

"Lao Chao, you have been to Pershulin before, why not come with us!"

"Help us lead the way!"

Chao Xi nodded:

"good!"

"Without further delay, I'm going to pack my things first. After Mr. Zhao is healed, crush this talisman. I'll be there soon!"

After the three of them made an agreement, Chao Yan left first.

"Can you see the problem?"

Zhao Yi raised his teacup and touched it with Ji Chen, and asked with a smile.

Ji Chen hesitated for a moment:

"Chao Bian seems to want to guide us to the Perforated Forest..."

"Whether it's the notebook and the church, or the secrets of the ancient battlefield and Emperor Dongyue..."

"All of this points to Perrin."

"And I always feel that... he seems to have known about Emperor Dongyue."

Zhao Yi's eyes showed a hint of appreciation.

"It seems that your eyes are not blind."

"Now, I can answer some of your questions."

"You should also be curious about what kind of vortex your sister is involved in..."

When his sister was mentioned, Ji Chen immediately became concerned:

"Please explain clearly, Lord Zhao!"

Zhao Yi leaned back, with an elusive smile on his face.

"Wu Jian is a game."

"Your sister has joined the game."

"But no one knows whether she is a white or black piece."

Ji Chen glared at him:

"Wu Jian is a game? Who is playing against whom?"

Zhao Yi moved the tea lid:

"It seems that the chess players are me and the Skull Church."

"But things should not be that simple. There should be deeper chess players on this chess game who have not been excavated."

"What can be confirmed at present is that the entire underworld... is a chess piece."

After hearing this, Ji Chen's face turned pale.

"The whole... the whole underworld?!"

"Is this why Xiao Pa was targeted?"

Zhao Yi said calmly:

"To save your sister, you must join the game."

"I won, and only those who follow my chess pieces can survive."

Ji Chen's body trembled.

He couldn't imagine what kind of torrent he and his sister were involved in...

The whole underworld is a chess piece...

What kind of handwriting is this? !

The person playing chess behind the scenes...what exactly does he want to do?

"What do you need me to do for you?"

After being absent-minded for a long time, Ji Chen's eyes gradually became clear.

PS: Second update.

After tossing around from Chengdu for a long time, I ran to my girlfriend's house and lingered for more than half a month. Finally, I regained my inner throbbing and desire for the plot. The game of Wujian was planned in advance, with a clear outline, and it will not end in a mysterious way. You can rest assured to watch it.

Good night, my dears!
