The look of the Gold-Eating Rat King changed drastically and he was wailing.
While he was talking, Jiang Chen had already taken action. The Flying Feather Mirror swayed slightly and covered the entire body of the Gold-Eating Rat. Jiang Chen once again urged the Green Stinging Ginseng Monster.
Countless green tentacles immediately bound the Gold-Eating Rat King.
The Gold-eating Rat King kept wailing and struggling with all his strength, but he was still unable to break free from the green tentacles of the Green Stinging Ginseng. The more he struggled, the tighter the restraint became.
Jiang Chen put away the two heaven-level elixirs in the mouth of the Gold-Eating Rat King. Then a talisman was slapped on the Gold-Eating Rat King.
The Gold-devouring Rat King seemed to be electrocuted. After a slight twitch all over his body, he no longer had the strength to resist. He lay limply at Jiang Chen's feet, unable to struggle any longer.
After Jiang Chen finished all this, he looked thoughtfully towards the formation ahead. With his divine pupils, he could naturally tell that there was a person hiding at the edge of the formation.
In fact, all Jiang Chen's actions were done for this person to see. Unfortunately, this person could be so calm. In front of his heaven-level elixir and green stinging ginseng monster, he was able to restrain his greed and never leave.
The edge of the formation made all Jiang Chen's calculations completely useless.
The play he played with the Gold-Eating Rat King was entirely based on the other's greed. If the other party could restrain his greed, his strategy of luring the snake out of its hole would be completely ineffective.
Jiang Chen felt a little depressed when he saw that there was no movement among the people in the formation.
However, he remained calm and stared at the edge of the formation for a moment, and finally gave up the idea of forcing his way through.
Elder Gao of the Chili Sect looked at this scene, and hundreds of thousands of thoughts flashed through his mind, but in the end these thoughts were suppressed by him.
Obviously, this old man also found the scene in front of him very strange.
Although the two people inside and outside the formation did not speak to each other, they knew each other well.
Jiang Chen failed in a battle of wits and felt anxious, but there was no trace left.
After exiting a hundred miles away, Jiang Chen released the Gold-eating Rat King again, and said with a sad smile: "Old Jin, is our play such a failure?"
The Gold-eating Rat King quickly said: "We have done enough for this drama. But I feel that the other party has already had his thoughts. However, there must be something more important than the heaven-level elixir during his trip."
Jiang Chen quite agrees with the judgment of the Gold-eating Rat King.
In fact, he could also notice from outside the formation that the people inside the formation were definitely thinking about it. There was definitely a more important reason why the other party was so restrained.
Just when Jiang Chen was at his wits' end, news suddenly came from the gold-eating rat along the way.
"Young Master Chen, my descendants discovered something unusual along the way."
"What?" Jiang Chen's eyes moved when he heard this.
"There are a large number of powerful people approaching this direction through different routes."
"How could this happen?" Jiang Chen was greatly surprised. It stands to reason that the Master of Cuihua Pavilion was so cautious, wasn't it just to avoid other people?
Why are there suddenly a large number of strong men approaching here?
Could it be that the secret work that Master Cuihuaxuan worked so hard to do was so full of loopholes that it was discovered by someone in just one night?
If Cuihuaxuan Master is only at this level, then that’s too bad, right?
"Could it be said that there is a traitor in Cuihuaxuan?" Jiang Chen thought again, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was unlikely.
"The matter of Master Cuihuaxuan's breakthrough is so secret that even Wei Xing'er, the young lady, knows nothing about it. How do ordinary people in Cuihuaxuan know such a secret? Who among those who know such a secret would leak it?"
"Could it be that Lord Cuihuaxuan hired those guardians? But since Lord Cuihuaxuan trusts those guardians, how could he betray him? How could a person like Lord Cuihuaxuan not think of this?"
Jiang Chen thought about it over and over, but still couldn't figure it out.
This thing is full of weirdness, making it unbelievable no matter how you think about it.
However, Jiang Chen did not hesitate and immediately called the Gold-Eating Rat King and contacted the descendants of the Gold-Eating Rat to analyze the route of these people.
If you want to pass this formation, it is absolutely impossible to break through forcefully. The only idea that can be taken now is the people coming from behind.
Jiang Chen decided to arrest a few people and question them first.
With the information provided by the Gold-Eating Rat Clan, Jiang Chen quickly found a suitable ambush location. After a while, a strong man of the second level of the Imperial Realm walked towards this direction at a very fast speed.
Jiang Chen had arranged the formation and had been waiting for a long time. As soon as the man stepped into the formation area, he realized that something was wrong. However, in Jiang Chen's formation, even the powerful men at the second level of the Emperor Realm basically could not escape.
possibility.
Jiang Chen himself is now half-step to the Imperial Realm, and with his cultivation level, even if he fights against a strong person at the middle level of the Imperial Realm, the chance of winning is more than 50%.
Even if Jiang Chen doesn't use formations, even if he doesn't use formations, he can easily kill a second-level Emperor Realm expert with his endless trump cards.
However, Jiang Chen wanted to survive now, so he used the formation to cooperate with the Ice and Fire Demon Lotus to capture his opponent alive.
This second-level Emperor Realm expert never expected that he would be captured by humans in the Central Red Cauldron Territory, and he was in a state of panic for a moment.
Jiang Chen used the Ice and Fire Demonic Lotus to penetrate deep into the ground.
The second-level Emperor Realm expert opened his eyes, looked at this unfamiliar face, and said in a complex tone: "Who is my friend? Is there some misunderstanding? Why did you catch me?"
Jiang Chen smiled faintly: "I don't have time to talk nonsense with you. Now I have a bottle of poison in my hand that will seal your throat when it sees blood. Either you take it now, or you answer my questions obediently."
There was a hint of panic in the eyes of the second-level Emperor Realm expert: "What do you want to ask, Your Excellency?"
"Are you really just passing by?" Jiang Chen sneered.
The second-level Emperor Realm expert still wanted to falter, but Jiang Chen's Heavenly Eyes suddenly focused on him. He reached out and grabbed a token and grabbed a token from the opponent's waist.
This token is clearly a royal secret order.
"Oh? That's disrespectful. Your Excellency is actually a member of the royal family of the Red Cauldron Central Region?" Jiang Chen's tone contained a hint of mockery and kindness.
The expression of the second-level Emperor Realm expert changed greatly: "You...who are you, Your Excellency?"
Jiang Chen's tone turned cold: "It seems that you haven't figured out your situation yet. In this case, this bottle of poison can only be tasted by you."
As Jiang Chen spoke, he was about to pour the poison into his mouth.
The man's face changed drastically and he hurriedly said: "Wait a minute, wait a minute what you want to ask, just ask. Please be merciful."
Whether strong or weak, survival is the instinct of any living being.
Even the second level of the Imperial Realm is no exception.
"Are you really just passing by?" Jiang Chen put Poison on the man's lips, but his tone became much more serious and he asked the same question.
"No...it's not." How could that man dare to lie? He also knew that if he didn't answer well, he might not have a chance to answer the question.
"The Master of Cuihua Pavilion has only broken through to the seventh level of the Imperial Realm. Could it be that the royal family also sent people to protect him? Is this Master of Cuihua Pavilion so charming?" Jiang Chen asked coldly.
The second-level Emperor Realm expert looked slightly surprised and looked at Jiang Chen: "Friend... from your tone, you shouldn't be the protector invited by Master Cuihua Xuan?"
"So what?" Jiang Chen said coldly.
"That's right, then we should be in the same camp. This is really a flood that has washed away the Dragon King Temple. Our own people don't recognize our own people. Although I am a member of the royal family, I was ordered to investigate the master of Cuihua Xuan. If
Your Excellency is the enemy of Lord Cuihuaxuan, so we can just form an alliance."
Hearing Jiang Chen's tone, it turned out that this man was not the protector of Lord Cuihua Xuan, and his tone became much more relaxed for a moment.
Jiang Chen sneered: "Alliance? What's the benefit of me forming an alliance with you?"
"If my friend is here to seek revenge from Master Cuihuaxuan, then this is an opportunity. Because the royal family of the Scarlet Cauldron Empire suspects that Master Cuihuaxuan is colluding with others, and is looking for evidence of his crime."
"Hmph, if the royal family really wanted to investigate the master of Cuihua Xuan, why would they allow him to hire so many guardians?" Jiang Chen did not believe the other party's words.
"Well, it seems that you really don't know anything about it. I dare say that most of his guardians have different intentions."
"how do I say this?"
The man's eyes flickered a little, but he said: "Take the elder Gao of the Chili Sect for example. I dare say that he was invited by Master Cuihuaxuan with the approval of the senior leaders of the Chili Sect. And the senior leaders of the Chili Sect definitely approved of his invitation.
, I’m afraid they are also investigating this matter.”
Jiang Chen snorted coldly: "Even if Master Cuihua Xuan betrays the royal family, there is no need for Chili Sect to be so enthusiastic as a third-grade sect in the Central Scarlet Cauldron, right?"
Jiang Chen combined with Elder Gao's reaction before and found out that the other party was definitely not as simple as simply investigating the master of Cuihua Xuan.
From Jiang Chen's point of view, there must be something more important here, something that Jiang Chen doesn't know about.
Jiang Chen didn't allow the man to say anything else and sneered: "Your eyes flicker and your words are half-truths and half-falsities. It seems you don't cherish your own life very much. I want to ask you one last question, why did the royal family send you here to investigate? Also,
Are there any of your accomplices among those guardians? Remember, this is your last chance. If you are still stubborn, don't blame me for not giving you a chance."
Jiang Chen also completely lost his patience. He didn't have time to keep arguing with this guy.
Time is limited, if you delay for another quarter of an hour, Wei Xing'er's life will be in greater danger.
When the man saw Jiang Chen's unkind eyes, as if he could see through himself, his whole body trembled. After hesitating for a long time, he said honestly: "If I tell the truth, are you really willing to let me go?"
"I have no enmity with you. If you tell the truth, why not let you go?" Jiang Chen said coldly.
The man shook his head: "There is no basis for what you say."
"Okay, I will make an oath between heaven and earth. If you tell the truth, I will never kill you in the name of the oath between heaven and earth." Jiang Chen was also very fragile.
The man clicked his tongue for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, I'll tell you. In fact, the master of Cuihua Xuan has been very strange in the past few years. It was not until a few days ago that insider information came out from within Cuihua Xuan. It seems that
Master Cuihuaxuan discovered a certain secret realm of treasure. And Master Cuihuaxuan is the only one who knows where the secret realm of treasure is. The so-called martial arts breakthrough is just a cover for him. Its real purpose is to dig out the treasure in this secret realm."
