Infinite Gate: I Became a Martial Saint from Another World

"Oh? I guess you are the King Ying in the rumors?"

Instead of answering the question, Zhou Hong asked Qian Ying a question.

"Yes, I am Qian Ying. May I ask your honorific name?"

Qian Ying did not get angry, but asked again politely.

"Zhou Hong."

Zhou Hong said his name.

When he heard the other party's name, various information flashed through Qian Ying's mind quickly, but he couldn't find the corresponding place.

"Zhou Hong..."

"I don't think I've ever heard of your reputation!"

Qian Ying pondered for a moment and then spoke.

"I, Zhou, come from a remote area, so it's normal that King Ying hasn't heard of me."

Zhou Hong said.

"I see……"

Qian Ying showed a look of realization, but whether he believed Zhou Hong's words or not, only he himself knew.

Qian Ying looked at the ruined scene below and asked, "I seem to sense the presence of a marshal of our imperial army. My friend, can you tell me what happened?"

Zhou Hong listened to this and said calmly, "You mean Ruan Guang? I killed him."

His tone was calm, as if killing Ruan Guang was nothing to him.

Hearing this, Qian Ying just frowned, but he still said very politely: "Then, why did you kill him?"

Hearing Qian Ying's polite words, Zhou Hong knew that the other party was definitely not a good man, and the reason why he was so polite was only because his strength was too strong. Otherwise, he would have been caught and taken back for interrogation long ago.

Thinking of this, Zhou Hong smiled and said, "Of course there is a reason to kill him, and the reason is that he is a spy of the Tianyue Sect!"

When Qian Ying heard Zhou Hong reveal the secret about Ruan Guang, he was only slightly surprised.

Zhou Hong naturally noticed this. It seemed that King Ying had already had doubts about Ruan Guang, and his words obviously made the other party more certain of his guess.

"It seems that Prince Ying has already had the answer."

Zhou Hong looked at Qian Ying with interest and said.

"Yes, in that battle with the Tianyue Sect, only Ruan Guang survived. I have long had doubts about him."

"What Grandmaster Zhou said now has confirmed my guess!"

Qian Ying replied.

"But Prince Ying, I have nothing to prove, do you trust me so much?"

Zhou Hong asked with a smile.

"Sometimes, we trust our instincts more, don't you think, Grandmaster Zhou?"

Qian Ying also said with a smile on his face.

“I think that may be the reason.”

Zhou Hong agreed.

"It is a pleasure to meet you, Grandmaster Zhou, would you please come with me to the Xuanming Palace for a visit?"

"I want to recommend you to my brother!"

Qian Ying stated the purpose of his trip. He wanted to win over Zhou Hong and use him for the Mingluo royal family.

"Guodu Xuanming, I will indeed go there."

"But I still need to think about whether to meet the king or not."

"Prince Ying, I have something important to do, so I'll take my leave now!"

Zhou Hong did not agree but did not refuse either. He had some other things to do and planned to leave first.

"Oh, okay..."

"If you have any plans, Grandmaster Zhou can come to the Yingwang Mansion in the Imperial City to find me!"

"Oh, by the way, every Grandmaster has his own title."

"Grandmaster Zhou can think about his title first."

After giving the reminder, Qian Ying flew away with a little regret.
