Because the situation is too complicated, those people have managed to escape far away. As long as they hide intentionally, it will be difficult for even a strong person in the Shattering Void Realm to find them.
The main purpose of sending Jiang Tian was actually to collect relevant clues so that the Chamber of Commerce could weigh and consider the situation and make subsequent arrangements.
But no one expected that Jiang Tian actually recovered the lost items for auction, and even recovered a batch of other treasures that were lost in the Ling'an City stronghold and auction house! "How can a mere hundred-man captain really have such great power?"
"I also think this is too exaggerated. If this is true, then his luck is too good, right?"
Someone raised doubts.
"That's right. I also feel that this is fake news. It's probably that he is exaggerating and deliberately taking credit! Fifth Elder, what do you think?"
The fourth elder expressed deep doubts, then looked at the fifth elder next to him and asked with a frown.
At the same time, the corner of his eye glanced at Deacon Yu who was a few seats away, his eyes moving slightly thoughtfully.
This time, the fifth elder did not express his position as enthusiastically as before setting off, but became slightly silent.
"Deacon Yu, tell me your opinion!"
The four elders looked at each other.
"Old man!"
Deacon Yu cursed secretly, feeling extremely angry in his heart, but he did not dare to show it too much on his face.
How could he not know the truth?
Jiang Tian relied on the help of the mysterious demon clan to kill dozens of powerful men from all directions.
If you can achieve such a feat, what does it mean to recover the few items that were sent for auction?
Although everything that happens in Tianhai Lake is done in secret, there is no airtight wall in the world, and it is difficult to hide some things from the core executives of the Chamber of Commerce.
Maybe they have heard some rumors.
These two pieces of information corroborate each other, which is enough to prove Jiang Tian's ability and provide support for his treasure hunting journey.
What is the intention of the fourth elder who asks this question knowingly?
Deacon Yu fell into silence, his face slightly ugly.
"Deacon Yu! Didn't you hear my question?"
The fourth elder spoke again, startling the other party.
"Fourth Elder, I'm sorry, Yu was a little distracted for a while because he was worried about the affairs of the Chamber of Commerce. Regarding Jiang Tian's retrieval of the treasure, we can't just listen to his words. We should wait until he comes back to witness it with his own eyes, but..." "But what?"
The fourth elder frowned.
"Those treasures are of great importance. I wonder if we should send a few strong men in the Shattering Void Realm to help them to avoid further mishaps along the way?"
"I think it's necessary!"
The fifth elder immediately spoke and agreed with Deacon Yu's proposal.
"Totally redundant!"
The fourth elder waved his hand and smiled, "Since he has the ability to find the treasure, he will naturally have the ability to bring it back. If there is really a problem... he should have been out at Tianhai Lake long ago, right?"
The fourth elder slowly glanced at the fifth elder and Deacon Yu, his eyes seemed to be full of meaning.
The Fifth Elder and Deacon Yu were cursing in their hearts, but they could only pretend to be calm on their faces.
"Haha, I didn't expect the fourth elder to think so highly of him. Didn't he still distrust him a few days ago?"
The fifth elder asked coldly.
Deacon Yu frowned slightly and was silent.
"Hahaha! Now and then, although I have never been optimistic about him, his performance is undisputed. There is no need to discuss this matter anymore. Let's wait until he comes back to talk about everything!"
The fourth elder waved his hand and shouted in a deep voice.
"If he really recovers those treasures, it will solve the urgent need of the Chamber of Commerce and make a huge contribution!"
"It doesn't matter anything else. Being able to recover those items that were sent for auction can be regarded as preserving the credibility of our chamber of commerce. Such a feat deserves a reward!"
"So how do you think Jiang Tian should be rewarded for this action?"
...Rumble! Two days later, the copper-colored flying boat slowly landed in the inner courtyard of the Chamber of Commerce. Jiang Tian and his companions completed their mission and returned with the treasure.
"Xuan Jade Ice Toad, True Fire Evil Sword, and the Picture of the Universe and the Ten Thousand Mountains, good, very good!"
"Jiang Tian, you have made great achievements in this operation!"
"I never expected that what was originally just an exploratory mission to collect intelligence would go right to the point of finding all the lost treasures in one step!"
"Jiang Tian, to tell you the truth, your performance really made the entire chamber of commerce's senior executives shine!"
In the inner courtyard of the Chamber of Commerce, several elders, deacons and even some guests and ministers couldn't wait to welcome him.
Seeing Jiang Tian take out treasures one after another, especially those important items for auction, everyone's faces were full of ecstasy and excitement.
"You guys are serious!"
Jiang Tian cupped his hands and smiled, "Perhaps I was lucky. After several traces, I found the rogue cultivators in Liuhe City who were robbing the treasures, and successfully recovered most of the lost treasures. However, some treasures are still missing. I'm afraid
It’s hard to get it back.”
"It doesn't matter! If those things are lost, they are lost. It doesn't matter!"
The fourth elder waved his hand and smiled, his deep eyes seemed to have profound meaning.
The corners of Jiang Tian's eyes narrowed slightly, and he had a vague feeling that the other party had peeked into his secrets.
When he was promoted to captain of a hundred, the fourth elder publicly expressed doubts. At this moment, he found that the other party's attitude seemed to have changed subtly.
Jiang Tian frowned and said: "This time I went to Liuhe City to hunt for treasure, I also found some other clues, which are related to the interests of the Chamber of Commerce and cannot be ignored!"
"oh?
You come with me!"
The fourth elder waved his hand, and he and Jiang Tian walked into a certain wing on the fourth floor of the Chamber of Commerce.
"Captain Jiang, you have worked hard all the way, and you have been wronged before!"
The fourth elder smiled and apologized to Jiang Tian.
"Fourth Elder, what are you..." Jiang Tian was a little surprised by the other party's behavior.
Buzz! The fourth elder waved his hand and opened a shielding circle to isolate himself from outside exploration.
"All the previous doubts were all made deliberately by me. I am known for my eccentric temper in the Chamber of Commerce. You must know this. You can take a guess as to why I did that."
Jiang Tian nodded slowly and thought to himself.
This fourth elder seems to have a violent temper and extreme temperament, but that is just an appearance.
Obviously, this person is not as simple as he seems! "If I guess correctly, what the fourth elder did before was deliberately done to show to some people, right?"
"Well said!"
The fourth elder's eyes lit up and he nodded heavily.
"People of the bright side don't tell secret stories! What do you think of the Fifth Elder and Deacon Yu?"
Facing the sharp gaze of the Fourth Elder, Jiang Tian's eyes narrowed slightly and he was greatly surprised.
He didn't expect that the other party would be so direct.
Although he also felt that the Fifth Elder and Deacon Yu were a little strange, it was just a suspicion and there was no concrete evidence.
It is really out of common sense for the Fourth Elder to speak so bluntly.
But that’s fine. If you have anything to say, you can say it directly, so you don’t have to go around and around.
"With all due respect, I find these two people quite strange!"
Jiang Tian said in a deep voice.
"You're too polite to say that. The two of them are not weird, but they have big problems!"
