Chapter 36: Interrogation

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

As for Chairman Wang, other than having some status in the small city, he doesn’t have any power.

Nowadays, there are very few cultivators in the world. How could people like them find a Boss in a small city? It was unreasonable.

So, what was his motive?

[Host, what are you going to do?]

Sensing Jiang Yu’s thoughts, the system hurriedly asked, [Although this cultivator is not as strong as you, please be careful before you take action.]

“I know.”

Jiang Yu already had a plan.

He opened the system store and exchanged for many pills that could hide his aura. Then, he took them and followed after Old Master Yang and the others as they left.

This pill did not last long, and it wasn’t cheap either.

Every time Jiang Yu felt that the effect of the drug was about to wear off, he would take a new one.

Along the way, even the system did not know how many pills he had consumed.

In short, the system could describe Jiang Yu’s behavior in one word: squanderer!

[Host, you could have rushed over and fought him directly. Why did you have to be so sneaky?]

The system could not stand it anymore. The host that it had personally nurtured was hiding from someone inferior to him.

“Don’t you know? This is called casting a long line to catch a big fish,” Jiang Yu whispered, “There must be someone else behind him.”

There was no point in dealing with him alone. There was a bigger conspiracy behind this whole thing.

The system nodded in a half-understanding manner and didn’t interfere anymore. However, when it saw Jiang Yu buying pills like someone who never held money before, it couldn’t help but complain.

Jiang Yu ignored the system and continued to follow the target.

After following them for a while, Jiang Yu discovered that Old Man Yang was meeting several cultivators separately and had even gathered them together. He didn’t know what the old man was planning.

[A bunch of ants.] The system said disdainfully, [These people’s cultivation levels aren’t that high. Host, it won’t be a problem for you to finish them all off now.]

Of course, Jiang Yu would never do such a thing.

If he did that, how would he be any different from this group of cultivators?

“I won’t do anything illegal.”

Jiang Yu replied indifferently, which shocked the system. [Host, they didn’t consider whether what they did was illegal or not. Why are you thinking so much?]

In the system’s mind, there was only the concept of giving someone a taste of their own medicine. The so-called concept of the legal system did not exist.

Jiang Yu didn’t want to explain too much to it.

“To cut the explanation short, this is basically the order of modern society. It’s understandable that you don’t understand such concepts. In short, I can’t kill people casually.”

Thus, the system no longer interfered.

Jiang Yu hid behind the wall and listened to the conversation between Elder Yang and the other cultivators.

“There aren’t many cultivators in the world right now. We have to work together, or we’ll be easily defeated.” Old Master Yang said solemnly, “We must wait for the recovery of spiritual energy…”

Jiang Yu couldn’t hear the specific content of their conversation clearly, but he could see the other cultivators nodding their heads in the end. They probably agree to join the old man.

Damn it, what were they trying to do?!

“A year later, the spiritual energy will recover, but now, the spiritual energy is also increasing bit by bit. I’m guessing that he wants to gather all the cultivators together. As for his purpose, it’s not easy to guess.”

There were so few cultivators in the world now. How could he gather all the cultivators just for Chairman Wang?

They must have other motives. After pondering for a while, Jiang Yu continued following them and observing the situation. No matter what, the other party definitely had no good intentions.

Just based on the fact that he had hurt his father for no sense of morality, Jiang Yu decided that he would ruin their plan no matter what!

Along the way, Jiang Yu kept taking the pills to conceal his aura. The cultivator felt that something was wrong all along, but he couldn’t pinpoint what was bothering him.

He quickened his pace, and his heart became more and more flustered.

When they arrived in the suburbs, there was no one else around. Even though Jiang Yu had taken a pill and concealed his aura, Old Master Yang could still detect his presence.

Old Master Yang turned around and saw Jiang Yu hiding behind a tree. He was shocked, “It’s you!”

He remembered this boy. When he was at the villa last time, he felt that there was something wrong with this person, but he could not detect anything unusual.

Now, this person actually dared to follow him!

“That’s right, it’s me.”

Seeing that the other party had recognized him, Jiang Yu no longer hid his strength and completely exposed it.

Old Master Yang didn’t know what level Jiang Yu’s cultivation had reached, but he could clearly sense that this person was a cultivator.

“You lied to me last time!”

Old Master Yang clenched his fists and took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down.

“Is it strange that I lied to you? I don’t know you, so, of course, I have to be on guard.” Then Jiang Yu clenched his fists and threatened, “Speak! What is your motive?”

Old Master Yang shook his head and pretended to look confused. “I don’t understand what you mean.”

“How long are you going to pretend?”

Jiang Yu sneered and immediately attacked. There was no need for him to show mercy to such people. Since he already knew that they had a plan, there was no need for him to hide his powers anymore.

Old Master Yang didn’t expect Jiang Yu to make a move and defended himself out of reflex. However, the moment he received the attack, Old Master Yang felt the strong spiritual power in Jiang Yu’s body, which was stronger than anyone he had met.

“How is it? Are you going to tell me or not?”

The two sides had only exchanged a few blows before Old Man Yang was defeated.

This was… This boy had such strength!

Old Master Yang widened his eyes in disbelief.

How could a man not even twenty years old be stronger than him, who had cultivated for half his life?

“Tell me, what exactly are you planning?” Jiang Yu almost couldn’t suppress the anger within him. “Why do you attack innocent people?!”

He didn’t say that it was his father, in case he couldn’t get information out of him.

Old Master Yang noticed the difference in strength between them. He thought for a moment, before he finally said, “I’m just completing my mission.”

“Chairman Wang provided me with resources. In return, I help him deal with his enemies. That’s all.”

Therefore, as Chairman Wang’s enemy, Elder Yang injured his father.

Jiang Yu could sense that he wasn’t lying about this.

However, there must be more to that plan.

“What else?” Jiang Yu interrogated, looking as if they were going to fight again.

[Host, eat a Spirit Recovery Pill first. The spiritual energy in your body is insufficient.]

The system’s sudden reminder annoys Jiang Yu. He felt that it was too noisy. He impatiently took out a Spirit Restoring Pill and consumed it.

Seeing this, Old Master Yang was shocked.

For a moment, he thought that he had seen wrong.

That pill was clearly… Where did this kid get it from? He had searched everywhere for those pills but could not find them.

“I’m asking you a question. What do you want?”

Jiang Yu’s entire body was emitting a gloomy aura. In addition, his strength was very strong to begin with. Old Master Yang actually felt a little scared.

He was afraid of a young man at his age.

Ridiculous!

“I… That’s all I have to do with Chairman Wang. I don’t know what else you want to know. I don’t know anything else.”

It looked like he wouldn’t say anything unless he use some tricks.
