"Elder Luo, Elder Pei." Instructor Jiang cupped his fists in a polite and respectful manner.
"Mm, not bad, not bad. Xiao Jiang didn't disappoint us and brought back this monster." Elder Pei nodded with a satisfied smile.
However, his tone was heavy, and it didn't sound like he was praising me.
Soon, Elder Pei's attention shifted to me, and he examined me closely. "You're Zhuang from Nan Yun, right?"
"Yes," I hurriedly replied.
Then, Elder Pei clapped his hands and said slowly, "Zhuang Feng, you really aren't simple. According to the information, you came to Yun City from Niugu Village in early July. It's only been half a year. In this half a year, you beat up the Ouyang family and trampled over the Zhao family. Naturally, you stood at the peak of Nan Yun's martial arts. After you came to the capital, you became a legendary rookie with outstanding performance in less than a month."
"Hehe, Elder Pei, you flatter me." Even though I was thick-skinned, I couldn't take such a compliment.
"Heh, but you're too daring. In order to increase your strength, you brought the Blood-fiend Demon King back to the world. Do you know what that means?" Elder Pei was smiling just a moment ago, but his face suddenly fell.
"Ah, I have nothing to do with the Blood-fiend Demon King. Please investigate, Elder Pei." My expression was normal as I looked at him.
I had already thought of some excuses, but Old Mr. Pei's attitude made me a little flustered.
"Nothing to do?
Then tell me, how did you go from a normal person to a peak expert that can rival a real earth immortal in just half a year? "He stared at me.
Although I had defeated the Wei Nation's high-level warriors at Nan Yun Airport not long ago, I had also exposed my strength. Even my strongest trump card, the True Martial Three Styles, was revealed.
I was in a dilemma as Elder Pei kept asking. Actually, I had experienced many life and death situations to get to where I was today. I had also had many unimaginable adventures. Just like the main character in a novel, even if I told them everything, no one would believe me. I couldn't possibly tell them that I was the main character in the novel, right?
That would be ridiculous!
Before I could say anything, Jiang Cangtian said in a low voice, "Because he might be the head disciple of Wudang!"
"Wudang's chief disciple?!" Hearing those words, even the peerless powerhouse's eyes lit up.
Even the average WuTang Dang disciple would be so lucky to have one. The so-called chief disciple was also known as the last disciple. In the martial arts world, only the sect leader and the WuTang Seven Heroes had the right to nurture the last disciple.
In other words, the position of the lead disciple in Wudang Sect was second only to the Sect Leader and the Seven Heroes of Wudang!
It was not an exaggeration to say that the leader of a small sect was not as strong as the chief disciple. Even if it was in terms of influence in Jianghu, it would not be any less!
"Little Jiang, are you joking?" Elder Luo frowned.
"Old Luo, how would I dare to joke about something as such?" Jiang Cangtian's smile was a little awkward.
"What evidence do you have to prove that he's the chief disciple of Wudang Sect?" asked Old Mr. Pei instinctively.
"Yes, he has mastered Wudang's supreme martial arts. Isn't that very convincing?" Jiang Cangtian explained.
Old Mr. Pei was stunned at first, then he did not know whether to laugh or cry. "Little Jiang, what kind of evidence is that?
Let me give you a simple example. There are at least 40 countries in the world coveting Hua Xia's most advanced technological secrets. They are racking their brains to get their hands on it. In fact, there have been cases where they succeeded. It's just that you don't know about it. Are you telling me that something that Hua Xia pioneered flowed into other countries and it's all thanks to Hua Xia? "
Without a doubt, Old Mr. Pei's words not only overruled me, but he also accused me of stealing.
"Old Mr. Pei, are you saying that this kid stole Wudang's supreme martial arts?" Old Mr. Luo asked with a slight frown.
"I can't guarantee that he stole it. At the very least, it's not through any legitimate means. If he's the chief disciple of Wudang Sect, why would he need to hide his strength?" Old Mr. Pei's analysis made sense.
"Old Mr. Pei, you're wrong. Wudang Sect is the number one orthodox sect. Who knows, they might have planted a disciple in the secular world for some reason?"
The person who said this was the peerless expert. His tone sounded like he was talking to an old friend.
If it was Jiang Cangtian, he definitely wouldn't have the guts. However, I also felt that even though I respected him, I couldn't blindly agree with him. Otherwise, it would be easy to misrepresent a deer as a horse.
"Oh, you reminded me. Let's not talk about whether he's from Wudang Sect or not. At least from that video, he's the cause of the Blood Demon. If he really is the chief disciple of Wudang Sect, then he's even more guilty. However, it's indeed inconvenient for us to deal with him. Why don't we ask Wudang Sect for their opinion? I believe they won't tolerate this. What do you think, Old Mr. Luo?" Old Mr. Pei replied and changed his way of thinking.
As expected, even if I refused to admit it, the video of that night was still irrefutable evidence. There was no way to dodge this.
"Little Jiang, actually, you should have brought Du Hongchen along. It would be easier to get to the bottom of this," Old Mr. Pei said while shaking his head.
"Uh, I miscalculated. Do you want me to go again?"
Originally, Jiang Cangtian wanted to speak up for me. However, judging from Old Mr. Pei's attitude, he was determined to get rid of me. Even with his status, he couldn't withstand this kind of pressure. He couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
"There's no need for now. Take him back and lock him up. We still need to discuss how to deal with him." Old Mr. Pei waved his hand.
"Yes!"
Jiang Cangtian immediately responded. He secretly heaved a sigh of relief. If he brought Grandmaster Chen and Director Du here for interrogation, it was inevitable that there would be some loopholes. If they followed the clues and found out something substantial, both of them would be finished.
The attack on the Eagle Group had a terrible impact. Even the top leaders like Hua Xia had to take this matter seriously.
