With this affirmative tone, it was like Gu Zhenren already knew everything he had done.
Thinking of Long Zhen’s previous experience, Fang Yuan’s heart jumped. “Master, I…”
Gu Zhenren raised his hand to stop him from speaking. “Don’t worry, I won’t blame you.”
“The capital’s Zhang clan defected to the Gu Demon Sect, and Zhang Wenbin’s fate was only a matter of time. What you did just made this day come earlier.”
“It just so happens that you have a grudge with him, and dying by your hands can be considered to have settled some karma.”
“The Zhang clan defected to the Gu Demon Sect?”
Fang Yuan heard another piece of important news.
“That’s right.”
Gu Zhenren stood with his hands behind his back. “The Zhang clan thought they were meticulous, but they did not know that the communication Gu that entered the sect would be checked first. Even though it was not explicitly mentioned in the message, it made the few checking disciples suspicious, and
after trailing for a few days, they did find something.”
Hearing this, Fang Yuan could roughly guess the content.
If it was as he thought, it was basically the Gu Demon Sect’s plan to occupy Yong An Hall, poaching one of the Gu Immortal Sect’s cornerstones and using benefits to make the Zhang clan stand on their side.
‘When more and more clans went to their side, the situation where both sides had equal battle strength would change, and at that time, no matter how unwilling the Gu Immortal Sect was, they could only give up.
After Gu Zhenren’s simple explanation, it was indeed the same as Fang Yuan’s thought.
Fang Yuan held his chin and thought, “This means that there should be more than one clan that Gu Demon Sect bribed. Master, should we investigate the whole sect?”
“The sect has disciples from so many clans, where would we start?”
Gu Zhenren patted Fang Yuan’s shoulder. “Remember, Zhang Wenbin died in the hands of the Gu Demon Sect’s disciple, if we spread this news, the other people will have their reservations if they want to side with them.”
Fang Yuan understood.
This could be considered a warning.
‘As expected of the leader of Gu Immortal Sect, his control over people’s hearts was far beyond Fang Yuan’s reach.
Gu Zhenren suddenly thought of another matter.
“Right, I heard from De’er that you gave up on the only Gold quality Gu worm in the auction in order to help him fulfill my orders?”
“Cough… cough… is that what First Senior said?”
Fang Yuan was a little embarrassed. Master was planning to compensate him with a Gu worm?
‘As expected, in the next moment, Zhenren waved his hand extremely heroicly.
“Ican’t let you work for nothing. Go to the Gu spirit hall and get one. I’ll send a voice transmission to them later.”
“Thank you for the reward, Master!”
Fang Yuan was overjoyed. He didn’t expect that he could get a gold-quality Gu worm.
Gu Zhenren said with a straight face, “This is not a reward for you. You deserve it for completing the sect’s mission.”
“Tunderstand!”
Fang Yuan smiled knowingly. “Do you have any other instructions, master? I don’t mind working hard.”
“You brat…” Gu Zhenren couldn’t help but laugh. “I do have something for you to do.”
Fang Yuan patted his chest. “Master, please say it. I will do my best!”
“There are not many people in the investigation hall. They are basically doing their own jobs. Now that there is one less person, there will naturally be a replacement. Go and help me find and evaluate a suitable candidate to join.”
It was an errand and probably did not have much profit.
However, no matter how small a mosquito’s leg was, it was still meat. Perhaps Master would use his position to reward… no, let him deserve another Silver quality Gu worm?
After hearing the news that the monster race might invade, Fang Yuan felt a sense of crisis and wanted to quickly increase his strength.
Thus, after bidding farewell to Gu Zhenren, he did not go back to rest, and instead directly rushed to the investigation hall.
Gu Zhenren had already informed them, and Fang Yuan obtained a few Evaluation Gu worms without any hindrance.
The investigation hall naturally tested a person’s level of attentiveness and ability to dig out the truth.
‘The function of these Gu worms were somewhat similar to the Phantom Gu, but they recorded scenes, allowing the user to experience the plot from the perspective of a bystander.
‘Those were a few cases that Fang Yuan had a headache from looking at and asking for answers about the perpetrator’s motive, methods and tools.
Hmm…
It had the feeling of a modern criminal investigation.
This kind of work was not something that an ordinary person could do.
Fang Yuan did not have any good candidates for the time being.
However, working at the investigation hall was such a good job. Naturally, he had to find Li Tongzhou to try it out.
Maybe he could solve it by accident?
‘Therefore, Fang Yuan went to the outer sect through the teleportation array. With the help of a few enthusiastic martial nephews, he finally found his destination and pushed open the door of Li Tongzhou’s shower room.
“Li, buddy, do you want a bright future?”
“Fuck!”
Li Tongzhou was so scared that he shivered. He quickly covered the key parts of his body with a blank face. “Senior, what are you doing?”
Fang Yuan took a look and was shocked. “You actually used two hands to cover the area of a single hand. Isn’t that excessive?”
“Buck you…”
Li Tongzhou was furious. This was related to the dignity of a man!
Fang Yuan waved his hand and took the initiative to walk out. “Hurry and wash up. After you’re done, run out and find me!”
Fang Yuan came and left even faster. Before Li Tongzhou could flare up, Fang Yuan had already disappeared on the spot.
Li Tongzhou was extremely aggrieved. He felt as if he had been humiliated by Fang Yuan who had run away in time.
Gritting his teeth, he quickly cleaned up the foam on his body, put on his clothes, and walked out.
Fang Yuan was waiting for him in the courtyard.
Li Tongzhou gritted his teeth and walked forward, “Senior! Draw your sword!”
“What sword? I don’t like that kind of thing, if you can’t help it, you can find someone else to fight with your bayonet.”
Fang Yuan rolled his eyes.
“222”
Li Tongzhou’s small eyes were full of doubt.
The next second, Fang Yuan slapped an Evaluation Gu worm on the table.
“Hurry up, let’s see if you can use this opportunity to enter the inner sect, it depends on whether you have the talent or not!”
“Don’t give me that! Don’t think that you can appease my anger with just a Gu worm, even if I, Li Tongzhou, die of poverty, starvation, or die outside, I will never…”
Li Tongzhou was giving his proud speech when he suddenly felt something was off. “Wait… Senior, what did you say? Enter the inner sect?”
“That’s right.”
Fang Yuan rubbed his ears and yawned as he kept the Gu worm, “Looks like you don’t want this chance, I’ll find someone else.”
“Don’t!”
Tug!
Li Tongzhou hugged Fang Yuan’s thigh, “Brother, I was wrong, just pretend I didn’t say anything, you are my blood brother!”
