Chapter Seventy-Four: The Truth
"I'm going back to Sark, too, right together. Xiao Che replied with a smile.
Hearing Xiao Che say this, the handsome girl was overjoyed.
The trio did not clean up the castle, which was now in ruins. Head straight to Sark City.
Along the way, Xiao Che also knew the names of the two girls. The handsome girl's name is Zhou Xiaodie, but she never mentions her family.
The young woman's name is Creek. She was an abandoned baby picked up by the Zhou family by the stream. Growing up with Zhou Xiaodie since childhood, the Zhou family is a mysterious hidden family, and the Zhou family not only practices martial arts, but also spells. In her cognition, there is no family that is stronger than the Zhou family, except for the legendary Qingxuan family.
The two girls also knew Xiao Che's name. The reason why Xiao Che told his real name was because after the previous battle, Xiao Che had already regarded them as friends from the bottom of his heart. Otherwise, if it was a random stranger, Xiao Che would never easily tell his name.
Although this place is very far away from the Qingxuan Empire, Xiao Che's name is a household name even in Beiyan, these two people have never heard of it, so it is conceivable that they must be from a more distant place.
This made Xiao Che have more expectations for the outside world.
But he didn't ask directly, after all, if the two girls wanted to say something, they would have said it a long time ago.
The two girls were also very surprised to learn that Xiao Che was from the Qingxuan Empire. However, they didn't find it strange that Xiao Che was not the first person from the Qingxuan Empire they had seen.
In the area where their Zhou family was located, there were many cultivators of the Qingxuan Empire. Any one of those people is much stronger than the current Xiao Che, but the two women also know that Xiao Che is not an ordinary martial artist. In Zhou Xiaodie's opinion, Xiao Che's concealment and speed are the first among the young heroes she has seen over the years. However, Xiao Che's strength is very average in her opinion.
If Xiao Che knew her thoughts, he didn't know how surprised he would be.
With Xiao Che's current strength, he is at the top level among the younger generations of the countries in this area of the Qingxuan Empire, but these are just rare and ordinary in Zhou Xiaodie's opinion.
After all, Zhou Xiaodie's own strength is not weak, and in the place where their Zhou family is located, there are many people of her age who are stronger than her.
Xiao Che learned about this from the chat with the two girls, and he also sighed, sure enough, there is a sky outside the sky. Not to mention anything else, it is that Zhou Xiaodie's level of respect for the master realm is not comparable to herself, and Xiao Che knows very well that the young people who can be compared with Zhou Xiaodie in the cultivation of the Qingxuan Empire are the young people of the Qingxuan family and the royal Xiao family.
Except for Qingxuan Ling'er, Xiao Che had never seen anyone in the Qingxuan Empire who had reached the realm of a respected teacher at such an age.
Listening to Zhou Xiaodie's narration, Xiao Che had a broader martial arts world in his mind. Xiao Che knew that if what Zhou Xiaodie said was true, the overall martial arts strength of the area where the Zhou family was located must be stronger than that of the Qingxuan Empire.
Through "Senluo Wanxiang", Xiao Che has long known that there are more and more powerful races. But no matter how much I see it in the book, it looks like a story, and it's quite far away from me. Now, when he really encounters a martial artist from a stronger region, the real impact he brings to Xiao Che is completely different.
"Although the martial artists in that area of our family are more prosperous than here, you are not bad, and with your elusive body, you are the most powerful of all the young people I know. Seeing that Xiao Che was silent, Zhou Xiaodie thought that she had hit him, and quickly comforted Xiao Che.
"Yes, yes, and there are many people in your Qingxuan Empire who live with us. However, most of them are in the Supreme Realm and the Venerable Master Realm. Xiaoxi also told Xiao Che what he knew.
Hearing that there were many people from the Qingxuan Empire there, Xiao Che was very surprised, he had never heard of this in the Qingxuan Empire. It seems that the area where the Zhou family is located is indeed much better than the Qingxuan Empire itself.
Listening to what Zhou Xiaodie said, although there is a country like the Qingxuan Empire in the area where the Zhou family is located, it is the sectarian power that rules the world, which is completely different from the Qingxuan Empire. In the Qingxuan Empire, sectarian forces are dependent on the empire. The Zhou family is the opposite.
They have a dynasty that is even bigger than the Qingxuan Empire. However, these dynasties were all subject to sectarian power. It is not as highly unified as the Qingxuan Empire.
This information completely subverted Xiao Che's cognition and opened Xiao Che's door to the outside world.
Xiao Che secretly decided that as long as he finished dealing with the affairs on his side, he must go to the dynasty where the Zhou family is located with the two daughters.
Although his current strength is not very good, with the Traceless Realm Body Method, it is not a problem to gain a foothold there, besides, no matter where it is, the strength of Xiao Che's Venerable Realm will definitely be able to gain a foothold.
The three of them walked together, and time passed quickly, and before they knew it, they had arrived in Sark City.
The two girls had put on makeup before entering the city according to Xiao Che's suggestion, and now the three of them walked together like fledgling young chivalrous men in a certain sect.
This is why this is the least likely way to arouse suspicion. After all, I don't know how many such people there are every day.
When the three of them arrived in Sark City, they bought an annex, which was not large but had more than a dozen rooms, as well as a front and rear courtyard, which was more than enough for the three of them. Xiao Che didn't want to do this, but Zhou Xiaodie insisted on doing it. She didn't want to stay in an inn. The main reason is that the environment there is messy, and all they have to do is secret, and that kind of place with many people and eyes is really not suitable.
Thinking about it, Xiao Che agreed. Because the land is so small relative to the population, housing here is not cheap. If it is in the Qingxuan Empire or Northern Yan, the house is not so expensive. Of course, this is also relative to Xiao Che and the others. For ordinary people and even ordinary warriors, houses are still expensive to death.
In the next few days, the three of them divided their work to investigate the clues of the pursuer. After gathering all the information, the results all pointed to Lord Sark.
This made Zhou Xiaodie shocked and angry.
The Sark Lord is definitely not very human, according to the information that has been investigated these days, this Sark Lord is definitely a supreme realm powerhouse above the sixth grade. As for what kind of product he is, several people have not received accurate information. They are also judged only on the basis of what is known to be investigated.
According to the investigation of the three of them, Lord Sark's best record last time was to defeat a Supreme Realm Sixth Rank. Although that person was only defeated and did not die, it could also prove that the strength of Lord Sark was at least the sixth rank of the Supreme Realm.
In fact, no matter how many products there are in the Supreme Realm, it is impossible for the three of them to compete. It's just that if he was under the five grades of the Supreme Realm, Xiao Che would still dare to investigate closely, but now, Xiao Che could only find another way.
What they want to do is not to kill Lord Sark, but simply to investigate why Zhou Xiaodie was hunted down.
The annihilation of the presiding chieftain finally attracted the attention of the Sark City side, and soon they organized a special investigation team. The investigation team has one team leader, and the two deputy team leaders are both strong people in the late stage of the Respect for Teachers realm. In order to deal with Zhou Xiaodie's respected teacher realm.
Xiao Che and the three of them soon got the news.
Now the people of the investigation team do not know that they are in the city of Sark, which is their only advantage.
Soon the three of them made a plan, starting with the investigation team. These people must know something. But it's easier said than done, the three Venerable Masters are either in the city or acting together. This left the trio without a chance to attack.
In the end, he could only retreat and attack the Venerable Realm. But it's also a matter of choice. Although the Venerable Realm of the investigation team is a well-deserved elite. But this is nothing to Xiao Che and the three of them.
Soon they targeted a young man from the Venerable Realm. Although this person is only in the Venerable Realm and is not an important figure in the investigation team, he has a special identity, he is the son of the Grand Steward of Shack City, named Sadie.
The reason why he came to the investigation team this time was purely for experience. Three-two
Sadie wasn't a timid person, otherwise he wouldn't have done such a thing. However, he is not a capable person, he can only be said to be an ordinary noble child.
There are really a lot of people like them in the major families, and their all-round cultivation since they were young makes them at least able to become Venerable Realm martial artists even if they are a pig. Especially when he has such a powerful father.
Being able to be the great butler of Shack City is definitely not very human, although no one has ever seen him show his martial arts cultivation. But almost everyone knew that he must be a Supreme Realm powerhouse. Otherwise, it would never have been trusted so much by Lord Sark, and for other reasons, outsiders would not know.
It's just that for some reason, this big housekeeper has a lot of daughters, and his son is just such a one, so he is extremely doting on him, but his son's cultivation talent is really scum, and it all depends on the resources he gives him to reach the Venerable Realm at such an age, but his strength is like this, and it is almost impossible to reach the Venerable Master Realm without a greater opportunity.
Fortunately, there are a few talented among his daughters, which makes him a little relieved, these years, no matter how hard he tries, he has not been able to have another son, and the big housekeeper himself can't figure out what is going on, so he also invited many doctors to diagnose, but all the doctors told him that he was in good health and there was no problem. As for why he couldn't have another son, it was really beyond his reach.
For this reason, the big housekeeper is also helpless. I can only put all my heart and soul into this only unsuccessful son. Fortunately, although his son is mediocre in talent, he is still sensible and diligent enough. Now the big butler can only plan for him from other aspects. Like exercising and training him, and then letting him manage some logistics in Sark City and stuff like that. He can still do this.
Sadie naturally didn't know what his father had planned for him. But he also knew that he was his father's only seedling. His martial arts talent is really scum, and he has no magic talent. This also made him very powerless.
Fortunately, his father's love for him has never been less since he was a child, and he is diligent enough, so he has cultivated to the level of the Venerable Realm. This is already a very good thing for him. With the cultivation of the Venerable Realm, it is at least enough to gain a foothold in the world. And you can live well.
It can be seen that parents all over the world have good intentions for their children.
Xiao Che and the others spent a lot of money to get this information.
On a sandy evening, Sadie disappeared in the city for no apparent reason, much to the disappointment of the three leaders of the investigation team. They were well aware of the consequences of Sadie's disappearance.
They immediately reported this to the chief butler Satsuma.
Satsuma did not show any panic when he learned of his son's disappearance, but his heart was already turned upside down, and it was a great shame for him that someone dared to kidnap his son in Sark City. Now that he is still alive, someone dares to do this, and if he is not there in the future, then will his son not be slaughtered?
"Close the city of Sark, spread the word out, I just want people to live. Satsuma's eyes showed a fierceness.
At this time, Sadie was in the courtyard of Xiao Che and the three. A spatial barrier has been set up here by Zhou Xiaodie. Able to completely isolate sound. Therefore, no matter how they interrogate Sadie, there will not be the slightest sound.
This made Xiao Che very envious, this is the spatial means that belong to the realm of respecting teachers. In the past, Xiao Che had to find a basement for himself, and now he can use this kind of small method simply enough, but it is not as advanced as Zhou Xiaodie's method.
The three woke Sadie up, and Sadie looked at the three of them, knowing that he had suffered today.
"Three, you must have something to ask me when you came to me, as long as it doesn't hurt my life, I'll tell you anything. Sadie was very calm and did not panic in the slightest, which made Xiao Che and the three of them very surprised.
"We know your identity, and I don't want to embarrass you, what do you answer when we ask, do you understand?"
"Well, as long as I know, I must know everything. Sadie looked at the three of them with indifferent expressions.
"I know you're from the investigation team, and to tell you the truth, those people died at our hands. But we don't know where we have offended you, and we are going to send people to hunt you down. Xiao Che is also straight to the point, without any nonsense.
"Oh, it turned out to be you, I don't know the specific reason, but I vaguely know that it is related to the dark attribute. Xiao Che's words surprised Sadie, he never thought that they were the real targets of his investigation. However, the information they got was only a handsome young man, and they didn't expect it to be three people now.
"Dark attribute?" Xiao Che was puzzled for a moment, but Zhou Xiaodie and Xiaoxi showed surprised expressions.
"Alright, no need to interrogate, now we need you to take us out of town. Xiao Che wanted to ask more, but he didn't expect to be directly interrupted by Zhou Xiaodie. But Xiao Che didn't say anything, it seems that Zhou Xiaodie has figured out the reason.
"Okay, I can take you out, as long as it doesn't hurt my life. Sadie remained calm.
"Asking for your life doesn't do us any good, so we won't do it. Zhou's words reassured Sadie a little.
Soon the four of them left the city, and at this time, Satsuma's order had just been issued and had not yet reached the city gates.
Xiao Che and the three of them pretended to be Sadie's subordinates, and when the guards saw that the person who went out of the city was Sadie, they naturally would not stop them in the slightest, and they had already received orders that this investigation team could go out of the city at any time without inspection.
In this way, Xiao Che and the three of them went out of the city smoothly.
Not long after they left the city, Satsuma's order reached the city gates. At this time, the captain of the guard was shocked, so he told the story of Sadie taking the three people out of the city just now.
The matter was quickly reported to the three leaders of the investigation team, and the three of them came together. He took a lot of people out of the city to chase them.
After getting out of the city smoothly, Xiao Che and the others really released Sadie as promised, without hurting him in the slightest. Soon it was gone, disappearing into the night.
Sadie walked back alone, he was also afraid of what had just happened, he was slightly distracted, but he soon heard the voice of people and horses in front of him.
The three team leaders hurriedly went out of the city to explore, and at this time they sensed that there was someone in front of them, and they immediately became vigilant. I didn't know that if I looked closely, it was Sadie. This made the three of them breathe a sigh of relief.
"Is it Sadie?" asked the team leader.
"It's me, Uncle Moen. Sadie also saw who was coming. Presumably his father knew about his disappearance, otherwise it would never have been these three team leaders who brought so many people to chase him out. Now Sadie is very irritable, and it seems that everything depends on strength.
If I hadn't had a good father, I'm afraid that I would have lived a humble life in this Sark City.
"Xiaodi, what's going on, who is holding you hostage?" asked Sadie from the team leader, who had already learned from the guards that the other party was three people.
"Uncle Moen, they are the ones who destroyed the team that was sent to the Desert Castle earlier. Sadie said without any concealment.
"What? It turned out to be them, but didn't the intelligence say that there was only one person? No wonder they would be wiped out, it turned out to be three people. Hearing Sadie say this, the team leader Moen also understood a lot of things.
"Xiaodi, which direction are they going? Quick, let's catch up. Moen continued.
"Wait, Uncle Morn, I don't think it's a good time to go after them, our mission is to get to the bottom of the previous team, not to arrest them. Besides, it was getting late now, and since they had decided to flee, they would not be left without a backhand, what if they had more people we didn't know about? And they have the ability to annihilate their entire army, and even Uncle Jiao, who is in the Respect for the Master Realm, has not been able to escape. As long as the Venerable Master Realm doesn't meet the Supreme Realm, you can always escape if you can't beat it, but the fact is that Uncle Jiao has fallen, which shows that their strength is extraordinary. Hearing that Moen wanted to pursue, Sadie hurriedly spoke to stop him.
He didn't want to put himself in danger again. In his opinion, those three people are so young, decisive and decisive in their work, they are simply ruthless people, if they still have a backhand, wouldn't they have to follow in the footsteps of the previous team.
"Xiaodi, you're right, there are too many things happening today, let's go back and report to your father Satsuma first, and let him decide. Hearing Sadie's words, Moen also gave up his intention to pursue. After all, this matter cannot be solved by yourself.
