Although it was already too late, it was better for him to confess himself than to be cruelly exposed in the end, even if it was limited.
At this moment, the supreme intent that was entrenched in his body spoke in his sea of consciousness again.
“Calm down, don’t be afraid.”
Chu Zhongyuan was full of doubts, but when he heard this voice, he immediately calmed down.
Everyone was paying close attention to the formation. The atmosphere was particularly heavy and there was not a single sound.
After an unknown period of time, a line of words suddenly appeared in the array.
Everyone’s spirits were lifted.
“I’ve already found out that in the archives of the gods…”
Halfway through the sentence, it stopped abruptly without any warning. The communication array was then forcefully shut down.
Bai Shizu was stunned.
Lord Chu was so angry that he grinned. That was it? This king has already taken off his pants, and you’re showing this king this?”
Chu Zhongyuan breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at Lin Yi.
He didn’t know what was going on, but he was sure that it had something to do with the supreme consciousness in his sea of consciousness!
He wanted to find the owner of this consciousness, and he had already guessed that this person was very likely to be in the Imperial Residence at this moment!
Maybe it was Lin Yi.
However, Lin Yi’s face was completely blank. There was no other expression that was worth investigating.
When Chu Zhongyuan looked at Lin Yi, Bai Shizu subconsciously turned to Lin Yi as well.
Although logically speaking, he didn’t think that Lin Yi had anything to do with this. After all, Lin Yi didn’t have the chance to interfere in advance. This kind of thing couldn’t be ruined just because he wanted to, but his instincts told him that Lin Yi had done something.
What he didn’t know was that Lin Yi was behind all this.
Don’t forget, Lin Yi had just contacted Guan Zhengxuan yesterday-his goal was to get Guan Zhengxuan to clean up Chu Zhongyuan’s mess.
Not only did he have to clean up his mess, but he also had to take the opportunity to take down the high-level spy planted by the Inner Court!
Of course, there was an element of luck in this.
But from the current results, Guan Zhengxuan’s luck was indeed not bad.
Lin Yi frowned and reminded,”From the situation just now, something must have happened to the other party and they were forced to stop. Maybe…”.
Bai Shizu looked at him and said,” Maybe someone found out about our undercover identity. Is that what Brother Lin wants to say?”
“Very likely.” Lin Yi nodded.
Lord Chu laughed coldly.” If that’s the case, Shizu Bai, you’ll have a big pot on your head. Can you handle it?”
For the first time, Bai Shizu’s face darkened and he didn’t say anything.
A spy on the other side who could conduct a file investigation must have a high status. If the Inner Court wanted to plant such a spy in the divine territory, the price would be much higher than the gods planting Chu Zhongyuan in the Inner Court!
If Bai Shizu had initiated the investigation of the gods ‘archives without authorization, this high-level spy’s identity would be exposed. It would definitely be a huge loss for the Inner Court!
Once he was held accountable, Bai Shizu would definitely not be able to handle it alone.
If it was light, he would be stripped of his position as one of the four managers of the Safety Inspection Department. If it was serious, he would be directly imprisoned and punished!
Unless the King of Qin was willing to protect him at all costs.
Not to mention how things would develop in the future, at the very least, they were stuck at this stage.
Without the investigation results of the gods ‘archives, there was no direct evidence pointing to Chu Zhongyuan. It was simply a fool’s dream for Bai Shizu to use this to capture King Chu.
Lord Chu didn’t hide his gloating.” If I were you, what I would do now is not to stand here like a fool. Instead, I would quickly go to the King of Qin and cry to him. I would ask him to be merciful and help me. Otherwise, when the higher-ups punish me later, I won’t even know how I died.”
Bai Shizu said in a deep voice,” There are so many clues pointing to Chu Zhongyuan. Now that we’re about to get the results of the investigation, something happened all of a sudden. With so many coincidences coming together, King Chu wouldn’t still think it was a coincidence, right?”
“What’s wrong? You still want to push this big pot onto my Uncle Wang’s head?”
Lord Chu’s face instantly darkened.
Chu Zhongyuan himself finally spoke up.” Manager Bai, I’ve been tolerating you for a long time. Even when you threatened me and forced me to sell the Rules Design Institute to King Qin’s Mansion at a low price, I didn’t report it to the King on account of our alliance.”
Lin Yi couldn’t help but look at him.
As expected of the wily second in command of the Chu royal residence, this stab was even more accurate and ruthless!
If he had said this before, Lord Chu would have flown into a rage, but because of his many misgivings, he would not have truly fallen out with them in the end.
However, it was different now.
Chu Zhongyuan’s words were the last straw that broke the elephant’s back!
Bai Shizu’s heart sank. He suddenly realized that things were troublesome.
As expected, King Chu’s body immediately surged with dense killing intent. His killing intent was piercingly cold.
“What is it? How dare you threaten Uncle Wang to betray my Chu royal residence? This king will chop you alive today!”
As he spoke, he drew out a dazzling golden saber embedded with gems from behind him and chopped down at Bai Shizu’s head without saying a word.
Bai Shizu was highly regarded by the King of Qin. The King of Qin knew that touching him was touching the King of Qin, so he had been patient and did not flare up in front of him.
But now, the other party had already stepped on his nose to this extent. If he, as the mighty King Chu, still held back, then the Chu royal residence was really not far from death.
As a top-notch royal residence, the Chu royal residence could be unlucky, but they could not lose the will to kill!
Otherwise, once they lost their fear, the Imperial Residence would be destroyed in a matter of minutes.
Moreover, if Bai Shizu was really killed here today, would the King of Qin still fall out with the Chu royal residence over a dead person? This was something to be discussed.
Puff!
Bai Shizu was caught off guard and was cut into two by the golden saber on the spot.
However, in the next second, Bai Shizu’s figure appeared at the door again in one piece, and at the same time, he quickly retreated!
With his strength, he was not strong enough to fight King Chu head-on.
However, Bai Shizu had no intention of running away.
At this point, if he ran away, he would lose everything. If he stayed and fought, he still had a chance to win.
“Everyone, listen up! Take down Chu Zhongyuan!”
With Bai Shizu’s order, the fifty agents who had been waiting outside for orders erupted in unison, forming an earth-shattering array.
Although the Chu royal residence’s experts had also acted upon hearing the news, and strictly speaking, their overall strength was much higher than these fifty officials, they were still unable to break through the array!
Lord Chu laughed when he saw this. If you want to forcefully capture someone from my Chu royal residence, why don’t you think twice and see if you have the strength?”
Bai Shizu said in a deep voice,” Chu Zhongyuan is suspected of being a spy. The Security Investigation Division has a responsibility to shoulder. We have to bring him back for investigation today. Lord Chu, don’t make a mistake.”
