Peerless God of War

Chapter 3072: Highly Suspicious

"This..."

After hearing this, Qinglian was slightly stunned, a little surprised, and she did not expect Chen Xiao to answer like this.

But after a little thought, she felt that it made sense.

Indeed, as Chen Xiao said, before this, they had actually conducted intensive questioning, surveillance and investigation on the two so-called accident survivors, and came to a not-so-good conclusion.

"You have thought of this a long time ago, so you specifically asked that Su Qi some questions that he didn't want to do." Qinglian stared at Chen Xiao and said word by word.

Chen Xiao nodded and admitted this.

"Yes."

"This, it's just that the questions you asked are too simple, useless, and won't make him relax his vigilance." Qinglian said disapprovingly.

Regarding the questions that Chen Xiao asked Su Qi just now, she already had the answer in her mind.

After all, as the only two survivors, plus such a serious suspicion, they will naturally become the focus of investigation.

It can be said that she knows everything about Su Qi's life and experience, and all the past.

Hearing this, Chen Xiao spread his hands and said, "It doesn't matter. I just smelled it casually. It's good if it works, and it doesn't matter if it doesn't work. It's just a mere manifestation of the holy realm, it's not important."

As the saying goes, one force can defeat ten skills.

Even if this Su Qi is very suspicious, or if he has any secrets, facing a Jiexian strongman who is far more powerful than him, all these tricks are meaningless.

Qinglian listened and felt that it was very reasonable. He nodded gently and said, "You are right. After our careful investigation, we found that this Su Qi is very suspicious."

"What suspicion?" Chen Xiao asked.

"Su Qi may be a traitor. He is the most suspicious. As for the disabled monk in a wheelchair, we have investigated several times and found nothing suspicious. He ended up like this because of bad luck. But compared with those who died in the accident, even their bodies could not be found. Maybe he is lucky." Qinglian said in a cold tone.

"Su Qi is a traitor? Then why don't you arrest him?" Chen Xiao said expressionlessly.

"It is easy to arrest him, but this will cut off the clues, and this is just an inference, there is no substantial evidence. Instead of alarming the snake, it is better to play hard to get." Qinglian said lightly.

Judging from her tone, it seems that everything is under her control.

Hearing this, Chen Xiao frowned, which seemed a bit bad for him.

"So you thought of this way to let me take the risk, just like fishing, throwing a bait out." Chen Xiao said coldly.

Although he had been mentally prepared beforehand, he still felt a little unhappy when he heard and confirmed this idea at this time.

After all, people are afraid of death, and no one is willing to take risks, especially when facing dangerous enemies like Yunxiao Pavilion and Yanluo Island.

Qinglian was not surprised by Chen Xiao's reaction, and just said: "This is the owner's intention. I also relayed it verbatim. If Elder Chen Xiao is dissatisfied, he can go to the owner to discuss it in person, or even refuse directly. There is still this opportunity now, but what are the consequences, please think clearly, Elder Chen Xiao."

Qinglian's words were very heavy, but there was not much threat. Instead, he was terribly calm.

For a mature cultivator, interests always come first.

Thinking of this, Chen Xiao smiled bitterly and said: "You don't have to say it so bluntly, as if I am an ungrateful person, alas."

Chen Xiao was a little helpless. He had taken the benefits of others and had to work hard to do things, otherwise he would really feel guilty.

And this matter is equally important to him. As for Xiaolong's whereabouts after his disappearance, his intuition tells him that it may be closely related to this matter.

Both happened in the open sea, and from the perspective of time, they were one after the other, very close in interval.

So to investigate the merchant ship accident of the Chamber of Commerce is equivalent to investigating Xiaolong's disappearance, and the two things can be done together.

Seeing Chen Xiao say this, Qinglian's face softened a little.

"Elder Chen Xiao, please don't think too much. I am just telling the truth. Our Chamber of Commerce has always acted voluntarily and will never force others, and the same is true for the elders."

"Well, I believe this very much." Chen Xiao replied.

Of course he believed this, but there is another saying that is easy to get on the ship but difficult to get off. He has been so deeply bound to the Zijing Chamber of Commerce and has been on the Yunxiao Pavilion's bounty list, and there is no extra way out.

"So, Elder Chen Xiao, do you think it?" Qinglian asked again.

After thinking for a moment, Chen Xiao said again: "Can I make some requests? This trip is probably very risky."

"Yes, Elder Chen Xiao, just ask. The owner said that any request will be met as much as possible." Qinglian said.

Hearing this, Chen Xiao was relieved. Now he is really short of money.

The previous closed-door training and the refining of a mysterious puppet of the Manifestation Realm have used up all the belongings he had accumulated with great difficulty.

Now he is empty-handed.

"I need Xianyuan Pills, at least three bottles." Chen Xiao made his request.

Xianyuan Pills are extremely precious pills, especially for the strong men of Jiexian. One Xianyuan Pill can quickly replenish the immortal power.

This is very important for his action this time.

As long as there are enough Xianyuan Pills, plus his space teleportation ability, even if he can't beat the opponent, it is not a problem to escape. I guess Sister Huoyuan wants him to investigate the matter in depth because of this.

His strength may not be the best in the entire Chamber of Commerce, but his ability to escape is definitely first-class, and few people can match it.

This is very important.

When you are valuable enough, you will naturally be valued by others.

"Here." Qinglian took out a few bottles of Xianyuan Pills and handed them to Chen Xiao.

"So many, ten bottles." Chen Xiao glanced at it and was stunned.

Qinglian gave him as many as ten bottles of Xianyuan Pills. You know, he didn't dare to think about such a large amount of Xianyuan Pills before.

He originally thought that asking for three bottles was already a huge ask, but he didn't expect that he was still too conservative. It turned out that it couldn't be the Chamber of Commerce. It was really rich.
