Exploration
Zhang Chongtian trembled all over in fear.
"What is this you've brought me? Qin Ming is only in his twenties and is the heir of a small Family?" The White-Bearded Elder shook with rage. "Do you think I'm old and senile, easy to fool?"
"Old Ancestor, how would I dare fool you? This intelligence is absolutely true." Snot and tears streamed down Zhang Chongtian's face. The Old Ancestor was truly angry; he might very well kill him with a single palm strike.
Even if the intelligence was proven true in the end, he would already be dead.
The Middle-aged Man knew he had to speak up now; otherwise, Zhang Chongtian would definitely give him a hard time once they were out.
He stepped forward tremblingly, enduring the immense pressure of a Martial Venerable, and stammered, "Ven… Venerable, what Alliance Leader Zhang Chongtian said is true. This lowly one personally verified this intelligence; it is absolutely true."
The White-Bearded Elder saw that the two did not look like they were lying. Moreover, if this intelligence were fake, it would eventually be exposed. They probably didn't have the guts to use this to fool him.
"What intelligence has made you so furious?" The Red-Browed Elder, who had been focusing on his sword, turned around at this moment. With a wave of his hand, the parchment on the floor flew up and landed lightly in his palm.
Hearing the Red-Browed Elder speak, Zhang Chongtian became even more terrified.
Don't be fooled by the Red-Browed Elder's kind and benevolent appearance and think he was easy to get along with.
When the Red-Browed Martial Venerable was still a Martial Emperor, he loved killing. After becoming a Martial Venerable, he became even harder to serve; he would kill for pleasure if even the slightest thing went against his wishes.
Moreover, he possessed formidable strength and extraordinary talent. His swordsmanship had reached a divine level, and no Martial Venerable dared to easily make an enemy of him.
This man had killed two Martial Venerables and had performed immense services for the Pill Alliance.
The Pill Alliance was also a place no one dared to provoke because of his presence.
He had been in secluded cultivation all these years. This time he came out, the Old Ancestor must have told him about Qin Ming.
"Hmm? It is indeed somewhat absurd," the Red-Browed Elder said, frowning. "However, it doesn't matter. I will go to Chenyang City to investigate, and then I will know. If you are lying to me, hmph…"
Cold sweat poured down Zhang Chongtian's back, and his face turned pale. "Venerable, how could we dare lie to you? This intelligence is absolutely true."
The Red-Browed Elder nodded and said to the White-Bearded Elder beside him, "I'll be right back."
With that, the Red-Browed Elder's figure flashed and vanished from the hall.
Seeing the Red-Browed Elder leave, Zhang Chongtian let out a long sigh of relief.
"Alright, you two may leave. If this intelligence is fake, then wash your necks and wait for death! Even if you flee to the ends of the earth, you will surely die," the White-Bearded Elder said with a wave of his hand, giving them a warning.
"Yes." Zhang Chongtian and the Middle-aged Man slowly backed away and left… Two days later, a figure suddenly appeared before the White-Bearded Elder; it was none other than the Red-Browed Venerable.
"Did you find out?" The White-Bearded Elder sat cross-legged in the hall, having not moved from his spot.
To him, two days passed in the blink of an eye.
"I've found out," the Red-Browed Venerable said in disbelief. "We've run into trouble this time. This intelligence is actually all true."
"True? This kind of intelligence is also true?" The White-Bearded Elder's eyes widened as he looked at Red-Browed in disbelief.
"A Martial Venerable in his twenties… unbelievable," the Red-Browed Martial Venerable muttered to himself.
The White-Bearded Elder also fell into deep thought. He knew just how shocking this intelligence was.
