After listening to Gu Shunzhi’s analysis, everyone present nodded in agreement. After all, a person of order was a person of order. It seemed that there was a reason why Gu Shunzhi was chosen by the heavenly axiom. With just a few words, he was able to unravel the mystery. This might be the experience that the person of order had accumulated from years of intervening in the conflicts between various races in the universe and being in charge of mediating.
However, it was clear that these current inferences weren’t enough to deduce the identity of the person behind the scenes.
“If we want to disguise ourselves as one of them and jump in, then we have to at least confirm the identity of one of these seven identity cards…”Wang Zhen crossed his arms as he stared at the list on the ground, he felt that he had no clue. Although the cultivation civilization on Earth was far less advanced than that in God domain, Wang Zhen felt that he had come to the right place to train while trapped on Earth by Heavenly Dao this time.
Where there were people, there would be disputes. There were no fewer disputes on earth than in God Domain. Although Wang Zhen had felt a little wronged when he had first been trapped here, after getting used to life here.., he had even begun to enjoy life on Earth.
Studying with Ling Zhenren was indeed a very happy thing.
“What did Ling Zhenren Say?”Wang Zhen asked at this moment.
“Little master is still doing his homework…”at this point, loopy toad couldn’t help glancing at Wang Zhen, Gu Shunzhi, and the other people from God’s domain. “Speaking of which, have you all finished your homework?”
“No.”Wang Zhen shook his head.
Loopy toad: “Then why are you all so calm…”
At this moment, Wang Zhen glanced at Gu Shunzhi. “Old Gu hired someone at No. 60 high school to send us the answers to all the assignments on time at 22 o’clock every day through a nail. Just copy them.”
Loopy toad took a deep breath and couldn’t help furrowing its brows. This learning attitude was really terrible!
But it wasn’t that he couldn’t understand it… this cultural knowledge on earth was very easy for these big shots from God Domain. With Gu Shunzhi’s IQ, he might even develop a solution that hadn’t been developed on Earth yet, if they had answered the questions according to their habitual thinking, they might have exposed their true identity.
So in this situation, Gu Shunzhi chose to hire someone to do his homework and copy it himself. Copying homework was the easiest thing to do… Gu Shunzhi had learned this trick from Super Chen and dopey Guo, the two old foxes who worked in the morning and stole homework after arriving on Earth.
Of course, only Gu Shunzhi could hire someone to do this. He was an orderly, and his salary was set by the heavens. Wang Zhen and Liu Qingyi also benefited from it. After experiencing the baptism of “Poverty,”these two had become very sensitive to all kinds of expenses.
If they didn’t know their true identities, who would have thought that one of them was the young master of the Wang family in God’s domain, and the other was the young miss of the Liu Family?
At this moment, they were staring at the list on the ground in deep thought. Although they had already deduced Gu Shunzhi’s reasoning, they still had no idea what to do next.
But Odd Zhuo still had a feeling that this wasn’t the only clue old Liang had left for him.
At that moment, Li Huanran said from the side, “Can I take this list and have a look?”
“What did you find?”Odd Zhuo handed the list over. He could clearly sense that Li Huanran’s body couldn’t help trembling as he took the paper.
This was just an ordinary piece of paper, yet it could actually make Li Huanran so scared.
“I’m sorry… I was out of control…”Li Huanran forcefully suppressed the fear in his heart. He held the piece of paper and felt it carefully for a long time, his body constantly trembling. In less than a minute, he let go of it, as the piece of paper fell to the ground, Li Huanran also looked relieved.
“What’s going on?”Odd Zhuo asked.
“Everything is as I guessed; this piece of paper has that smell,”Li Huanran said. “Everyone should know that I once wanted to forcefully open the Void Door…”
“What’s the connection?”
“Although I didn’t break through the void door at that time, in fact, I still opened a small, invisible gap… now, I can feel that this piece of paper has the same smell as the void door.”
Hearing this, everyone came to a sudden understanding, and Odd Zhuo also revealed a surprised expression.
If this was the case, then the epicenter of the incident seemed to have been found… without a doubt, it was the Void Gate!
As for why Li Huanran couldn’t help trembling in fear when he took over this list, this was probably also a symptom of a “Traumatic stress reaction.”Back then, Li Huanran had tried to break through the Void Gate in an attempt to find his father, but had failed, the fear of facing death head-on had probably been branded into the depths of his soul like an axe.
“Back then, when you broke through the door, what exactly did you sense and what did you see?”
“That should be a kind of… Spirit?”? “I can feel an invisible spirit body wrapped around my body like a taotie. There are so many of them that they’re like locusts, swarming up and wrapping around me. Then, they began to devour, bite, and tear my body apart…”
Everyone shuddered at Li Huanran’s words.
“Then let’s call this creature a virtual spirit.”
At this point, Odd Zhuo finally caught a glimpse of what was going on. He turned his gaze to Gu Shunzhi. “Does senior gu know about the Void Gate?”
Gu Shunzhi was a keeper of order, and he would go back and forth between the ten universes all year round, so his vast knowledge was naturally self-evident. Now that things had come to a head, the first thing Odd Zhuo thought of was to get some information from Gu Shunzhi.
Unfortunately, Gu Shunzhi shrugged. “It’s a pity. This void gate isn’t in the Dao and isn’t under the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Dao. As a keeper of order, I’m useless.”
“There’s actually something in this world that a keeper of order doesn’t know.”Odd Zhuo clicked his tongue.
“To put it bluntly, the orderly is an emissary sent by Tiandao; he’s just a handyman. The universe is vast, and there are still many things that aren’t in the Dao. As the orderly, we can only observe from afar and can not interfere. Otherwise, we’re breaking the rules.”
Gu Shunzhi smiled wryly and said, “But thanks to little friend Li Huanran, this matter is finally starting to take shape. “From fellow Daoist Li’s description, there should be some kind of powerful creature behind this void gate that surpasses the Earth’s self-cultivators. “If my guess is correct, Keorn probably came to Huaxiu nation 20 years ago for the purpose of investigating the Void Gate
“In the historical records, the Void Gate has only appeared twice. One time, it was challenged and broken through by fellow Daoist Li’s father, martial arts master Li Xiaokai. Unfortunately, master Li only managed to open a gap less than half a fist before he was swallowed. The second time, fellow Daoist Li opened the gate for the second time in order to find his father
“What does it mean to open the gate twice
“I remember that a famous scientist on Earth said that human beings should never try to have an equal conversation with a high-level civilization. At the same time, they should never respond to any signal sent by a high-level civilization
“There is a chain of contempt between high-level civilizations and low-level civilizations. For example, the creatures inside the gate of the void might not be interested in earth at all, so both sides have been living in peace
“However, I guess that this peaceful state was broken by fellow Daoist Li’s second attack on the gate…”Gu Shunzhi said, his voice gradually became low. “If these hollow spirits inside the void door start to show interest in earth, it’ll probably be a disaster for human cultivators.”
“Do you have any proof?”Wang Zhen asked at this moment.
“Of course.”Gu Shunzhi picked up the list. “The answer is on the list that Warden Liang left for us.”
Gu Shunzhi gently caressed every name on the list. At the same time, he was distracted to observe Li Huanran’s reaction. Li Huanran was now like a reaction vessel, he had a natural sensitivity toward the smell of the “Void Gate.”.
When Gu Shunzhi’s finger touched the word “Judgment,”he saw that Li Huanran’s entire body began to tremble uncontrollably.
“It’s him,”gu Shunzhi said. “The facts have proven that there are already high-level creatures from the Void Gate that have infiltrated earth… If my guess is correct, this person with the codename ‘judgment’came from the Void Gate.”
