Zhang Chi helps Long Yan, which has three benefits.
Hammer another demon to death and you will be safe.
For Hualong Palace, Chongxu's death is not a problem, the problem is that the demons appear.
As long as the demons are dealt with, they will go back.
After beating the demon clan to death, he can also learn from it the experience of dealing with the demon clan, and only then can he have the confidence to check and balance the second brother.
The third benefit is that I get to hang out with a rich woman.
Of course, Zhang Chi doesn't intend to use his beauty to seduce Long Yan. He has a million and doesn't need to act in a sweet love drama with an older ugly woman. He can just be friends.
When he goes to Hualong Palace to develop in the future, he will have another avenue.
But to deal with such a rich and confident woman, licking her is definitely useless. What Zhang Chi has to do is to break through her defenses simply and crudely.
"You were suspicious of my master and lurked in Jianzong in order to secretly investigate her. So you approached me with the intention of using me as a springboard."
Zhang Chi quickly pointed out Long Yan's intention, as accurate as reading his mind, which shocked Long Yan.
Moreover, his tone was very firm, leaving no room for Long Yan to quibble.
She couldn't help but ask: "How can you tell this?"
"Based on your behavior pattern and simple reasoning, you will know. Why, you haven't figured it out yet?"
Long Yan: "..."
This was the first time that she felt that her intelligence had been insulted. Although she didn't want to understand yet, she still said stubbornly: "I thought of it, I just didn't react."
Even if she was full of curiosity, she would never ask Zhang Chi to explain it to her!
Zhang Chi did not waste any time arguing with her, and simply said: "My master cannot be a demon."
Even if Jiang Qingyun really is, Zhang Chi will find a way to help her cover it up instead of reporting it.
This is my dear master. How can he betray me so easily when the end of his rope has not been reached?
Backstab is pretty much the same.
Seeing how determined Zhang Chi was, Long Yan was unconvinced again.
"How do you prove it?"
"I can't prove it now, but I will always believe in my master."
Zhang Chi expressed his determination and said: "Since you doubt her, I will help you investigate until you give up."
No, there are reasons to participate in the investigation.
"You are still grounded, how can we investigate? With your words?"
Zhang Chi said calmly: "Don't we still have you? If you can come in, you can help me out."
"Hey, now you know you need me?"
"Of course, a ruler is short and an inch is strong. You have your abilities and I have my wisdom. Let's learn from each other's strengths and we can't solve the problem?"
This is true. Long Yan nodded slightly to express her approval.
But she quickly realized, why are you the only one who is wise, and am I not?
In Hualong Palace, who wouldn't praise her for her wisdom and courage?
Only Zhang Chi dared to laugh at her.
However, as an old senior, she was too lazy to bother with Zhang Chi about such trivial matters.
"I can promise you, but your actions must obey my command."
Long Yan emphasized her identity and status as the boss, and Zhang Chi did not argue with her. He simply said: "I have no objection. I listen to Senior Long. What should we do next?"
Long Yan thought for a while and said: "Maintain normalcy first and don't be discovered by others. I will find a way to take you out to investigate at night."
"Okay, Miss Yu, I want to send a letter to my master, please send it to me."
"Why are you writing to her?"
"I already know that so many things have happened in the Sword Sect. As a disciple, I should care about the master emotionally and rationally."
Long Yan: "..."
Maybe, these are people from small places!
Hualong Palace is not so humane and sophisticated.
However, Long Yan also knew how to do as the Romans do, so she could take this opportunity to get in touch with Jiang Qingyun.
Not long after, Zhang Chi's letter was written, and Long Yan's Qihai returned to normal.
She didn't realize that Zhang Chi secretly gave her the antidote. Taking Zhang Chi's letter, Long Yan went straight to Qingyun Residence.
She felt that she was quite cautious and checked the content of the letter. There was nothing inappropriate, just some words of greetings and concern.
Seeing Jiang Qingyun, Long Yan seemed to understand why Zhang Chi cared so much about his master.
His master is indeed a rare beauty, with a cool temperament and gorgeous appearance.
When Jiang Qingyun received the letter, she did not check it immediately. Instead, she looked at Long Yan and said, "Who are you and why are you delivering the letter to me for him?"
"This disciple is Senior Brother Zhang's new handyman."
Long Yan has learned the lesson from before, and the look in her eyes now is a bit dark and lackluster.
Jiang Qingyun nodded, then opened the envelope and looked at it with her back to Long Yan.
And Long Yan also took this opportunity to quietly observe Jiang Qingyun.
There was no secret in Zhang Chi's letter. He only said some words of concern and said he wanted to come out to help investigate the case and share Master's worries.
The reason why Zhang Chi was banned in the first place was simply because no evidence against Qing Hui was found. However, it turned out that Qing Hui had problems to begin with. It was time for him to be lifted from the ban. It was Jiang Qingyun who ignored these things and wanted to kill him.
Lock it up.
He was worried that it was not safe outside, so of course Jiang Qingyun would not let him out now.
She called Long Yan and said, "Go back and tell Zhang Chi that he doesn't need to worry about the sect's affairs. He can just live and practice on his own.
Don’t even think about it if you are not satisfied with the three-month lockdown period.”
"Here."
Long Yan got the answer and hurried back.
Jiang Qingyun looked at her leaving back, squinting slightly, with a dangerous light flashing in her eyes.
It wasn't until Long Yan completely disappeared from sight that she closed the door and sat in front of the bronze mirror on the dressing table.
Long Yan didn't know that every move she made just now was under Jiang Qingyun's surveillance.
"This disciple of mine is too unsuspecting. It's a troubled time now, and he still keeps people around who he doesn't know."
Jiang Qingyun sighed as she looked in the mirror, and a charming face appeared in the mirror. Her appearance was somewhat similar to Jiang Qingyun's.
She said coldly: "It's just a tool. It has no use value now. Why should I keep it?
If you can't do it, I can help you."
"No need."
Jiang Qingyun's expression also became a bit colder, and she said: "Don't try to hurt him, he will not affect our plan."
"But he will become a stumbling block on your way to practice. You are not a pure demon. If you lose your demon heart, when will you be able to achieve the true demon path?"
Jiang Qingyun was silent for a moment, but still said firmly: "I will resolve my matters myself without anyone's intervention."
"Very good, but don't forget what I told you. The saint has been missing for ten years. Within ten years, Hell will elect a new saint. It's up to you!"
The person in the mirror was filled with resentment and disappeared from the bronze mirror after saying this.
Jiang Qingyun looked at herself in the bronze mirror, and slowly touched the long sword at her waist...
