If I live forever, everyone thinks I am invincible

lucky!

That's incredibly lucky!

Some people were initially annoyed that Chen Jie had tricked them, but now, seeing this scene, they were all very glad that Chen Jie had been interested in playing tricks on them.

If it weren't for Chen Jie, would they have been able to join Qibaoge?

No chance!

Perhaps what the Eternal Palace is experiencing now is also the fate they will face.

"It's boring, there aren't enough people, I didn't get enough killing."

"You know what a mess this is."

"Hey, how about you guys?"

Ok?

What do you mean?

what do you mean?

Chen Chang'an's words terrified the onlookers. How could he be so addicted to killing?

"Sect Master Chen, we have not offended you."

"Yes, yes, we are very honest."

"We absolutely have no intention of doing anything; we're just here to watch the show."

Hearing what everyone said, Chen Chang'an smiled and said, "You've misunderstood. What I meant was, nothing's wrong, so you can all go about your business."

"Okay, okay, let's leave now."

"Let's go right now."

"Sect Leader Chen, we shall take our leave."

Watching the departing crowd, Chen Chang'an said with a smile, "They're not easily frightened. Just teasing them makes them react so strongly."

"Brother, is this what you call joking? This is practically threatening someone."

"But what do we do now?"

"The next list won't be released for another month."

"Why is it getting slower and slower?"

The challenge leaderboard is over, but what will be the next leaderboard? This time, the announcement will be delayed for another month.

In today's Eternal City, the Treasure Pavilion holds absolute power, while the three hidden sects have essentially become invisible.

Although both the Holy Emperor Sect and the Dao Source Sect made it onto the next list, no one cared.

Because everyone knows that the ultimate winner of the Eternal Ranking will undoubtedly be Qibaoge. The only thing everyone is interested in now is what the next ranking will be and what they will gain after winning.

"Go back first."

There's no point in staying here.

"it is good."

After everyone returned to the Treasure Pavilion, Chen Chang'an looked at Chen Jie and asked curiously, "How did you end up joining the Outsiders Alliance?"

"Um... because I'm bored."

"Also, it's too much trouble."

"Being an outsider in this run-down place is just too conspicuous."

"I happened to run into the Outsiders Alliance, but I didn't want to reveal my identity, so I hid it and joined them."

"I was thinking of giving you a surprise in the future, but things didn't turn out quite the way I expected."

"Over the years, I have been living in seclusion within the Alliance of Outsiders and have not appeared in the outside world much."

"However, the resources controlled by the Outsiders Alliance are quite good."

Hearing Chen Jie's words, Chen Chang'an also felt a little curious. The Outsiders Alliance had been hiding, and few people knew their whereabouts, so why were their resources still so good?

"Where do your resources come from?"

“If you move around a lot in the outside world, you will be easily discovered, and the Outsiders Alliance will not be able to hide so well forever.”

"So, these resources come from within your own organization?" Chen Chang'an asked, frowning.

"more or less."

"However, Ku Daozi did not allow anyone to get involved in this matter; only he himself knew where these resources came from."

“I’ve tried searching and probing, but I haven’t found any clues.”

"Therefore, there are two possibilities. One is that Kudaozi controls some kind of resource pool."

"There is another possibility: over the years, someone has been secretly providing resources to Kudaozi."

"Kudaozi has a bad reputation. If it weren't for these resources, he would have lost his position as the leader of the alliance long ago."

“Father, I still think there’s something wrong with Jiang Yunchen,” Chen Jie said, frowning.

"But you don't know Jiang Yunchen, everything is just your own guess, or even just guesswork."

"Putting aside whether he has a problem or not, we can treat it as a point of suspicion, but we can't put all our suspicions on one person."

"This will cloud our vision and cause us to miss other clues or suspicious people."

"We need to broaden our horizons and take a longer-term view."

"Pay attention to everything, instead of focusing on one or two people and trying to figure out if they have a problem."

Hearing Chen Chang'an's words, Chen Jie smiled and said, "Father is right. I was just bringing up my own idea and wanted to see how Father would feel about Jiang Yunchen."

Test?

"You little rascal, you've even learned to test your father now?"

"What? Are you worried that your father will act on emotion?" Chen Chang'an asked with a smile.

"Um... I know my father isn't that kind of person."

"Because of you, you never trust anyone easily, and you are wary of everyone."

"Of course, except for us, your closest relatives."

"After all, even if everyone else betrays you, we will always stand by your side," Chen Jie said with a smile.

"You've become quite eloquent these past few years. This experience has certainly been worthwhile."

"In that case, I'll entrust you with an important task."

task?

"What?"

"They won't let me continue participating in the Eternal Ranking?" Chen Jie asked curiously.

Whether you participate or not, it's all the same.

"But I'm not entirely comfortable leaving this to someone else."

"Your older brother is also capable, but he's smart, though a bit too straightforward."

"You've always been unreliable since you were little, and you never do things the way that's expected, so you're quite suitable."

"I need you to go out and investigate the recent movements and unusual activities within the Imperial Realm."

"Although the Zhang family has been investigating, the results have been minimal and there has been no progress."

"The Zhang family's investigation likely used relatively traditional investigation methods."

"So, you need to..."

“Father, I understand. Taking things by surprise is something I’m good at.”

"Should we carry one of these holy weapons with us, just in case?"

Holy weapon?

"Forget it, what's the point of having this piece of junk? We men don't need this holy weapon."

“I think you could take a look at this holy weapon, Father.”

"The ten sacred weapons are all different, but... I always feel that there seems to be some connection between them."

Upon hearing Chen Jie's words, Chen Chang'an frowned slightly and asked, "You mean, fusion?"

"These ten sacred weapons were originally one?"

"I don't know, it's just a guess."

"Whether it is true or not, you should investigate it yourself, Father."

"Then I'll be going now, there's no time to lose."

Before he finished speaking, Chen Jie had already disappeared.

"That brat, he's fast."

Chen Chang'an shook his head helplessly, then took out ten sacred weapons.

"Why don't you... come out and talk to me?"
