Chapter 406: Suspicion
"Young Master, there are some things I'm unsure whether I should say or not?"
As soon as Han Ju and his companion left, Han Feng stepped forward and said to Zong Ze!
"Grandpa Feng, please feel free to speak your mind. We don't need so many rules between us. You are the protector of the Han people and also the protector of our Wu people. In front of you, my Zongze will always be a junior. If there is anything I have done wrong, please just tell me!"
Hearing Han Feng's words and tone, Zong Ze smiled. He wasn't just talking nonsense; he truly respected Han Feng. Back in the Holy Word Continent, Zong Ze often went into seclusion, and Han Feng was the one who oversaw things.
“Young Master, it’s really nothing. It’s just that I feel that Great-Grandfather has been in the Sacred Land for three hundred years, and although Senior Fu’s husband was a member of my Korean royal family, he has already passed away, and…”
Han Feng stopped halfway through his sentence. He believed that Zong Ze could understand what he meant, but no matter what, both Han Ju and Fu Yanhong were his elders, and Han Feng still retained a strong sense of Confucianism.
So although he knew that his advice to Zongze was correct, it was based on disrespect and distrust of his elders, especially his great-grandfather.
Zong Ze naturally understood Han Feng's meaning. He was sincerely grateful for Han Feng's suggestion. When faced with the choice between his own family and Han Feng's family, Han Feng had chosen him without hesitation. Therefore, Zong Ze naturally had nothing to hold back from Han Feng.
"Grandpa Feng, I understand what you mean, and I am very grateful for your reminder. However, please rest assured, Grandpa Feng, I actually went through careful consideration before doing these things."
Zong Ze paused for a moment before continuing, "The old man is your great-grandfather and was once a protector of the Han people. In particular, his initial hostile reaction when you revealed his identity shows that deep down, the Western gods have always been his enemies."
As for Sister Hong, with her husband and grandfather by her side, I believe she will definitely stand by us. What kind of person is the grandfather? He's seen more of life than we have. If he trusts Sister Hong, what do we have to worry about?
Seeing Han Feng nodding repeatedly as he spoke, Zong Ze continued, "Besides, as the saying goes, if you doubt someone, don't use them; if you use someone, don't doubt them. We've just arrived in Chaos City, and Grandpa and Sister Hong are our biggest helpers. The reason I refused to let them join our forces before wasn't because I doubted or didn't trust them."
"Whether it's the old man or Sister Hong, they are both core members of top-tier forces in the Sacred Words Outer Continent. The old man, in particular, is one of the elders of the Divine Pill Pavilion. Grandpa Feng, think about it, if they were to join our forces now, would the Divine Pill Pavilion and the Treasure Artifact Pavilion agree?"
"Zongze is right!"
Han Zhixuan said from the side, "If I were the leader of the Divine Pill Pavilion or the Treasure Artifact Pavilion, I would never allow this to happen in my territory. At best, I might only lose a master, but if someone with ulterior motives takes advantage of this, it would be a betrayal, and it would be a huge blow to my own territory!"
Upon hearing this, Han Feng was shocked. As the former second-in-command of the Temple of Light, Chief Judge Han Feng was very familiar with this situation. If one of his core forces suddenly switched sides to another, would he agree to it?
However, he was once incredibly powerful, and the entire Tribunal, including the Tribunal Knights, was outwardly a place to punish blasphemers, but in reality, it was a place where the Korean people secretly cultivated their core strength.
Therefore, the existence of the Tribunal is a top secret of the entire Han clan. Everyone who can be selected into the Tribunal is carefully chosen, and their loyalty to the Han clan is absolutely paramount. Han Feng has never encountered any so-called betrayal, so he did not think of this.
"and!"
Han Feng had a general understanding of what Zong Ze was thinking.
"Actually, I had another reason for not letting the old man and Sister Hong join us. We are too unfamiliar with Chaos City, but no matter how you look at it, the city lord of Chaos City is definitely not a simple character!"
Think about the expressions on the old man's and Sister Hong's faces when they were talking about negotiating with the city lord. Their expressions were very casual and confident; they didn't seem worried about the negotiations failing at all!
Upon hearing Zong Ze's words, even Han Zhixuan was unsure what he was trying to say: "Isn't this normal? After all, Old Master Han and Sister Hong have been in this chaotic city for many years, and Old Master Han is a Tribulation Transcending expert, so there's naturally nothing to worry about!"
"That's wrong!"
Zong Ze shook his head: "Zhiruo, let me ask you, how strong do you think the forces that can be called sects in this chaotic city are? Are there any Open Heaven Realm beings among them?"
Of course there will be!
Han Zhixuan nodded: "How could a sect not have experts at the Opening Heaven Realm to oversee it? You must know that this is the Sacred Language Outer Continent, a place where strength is paramount. Without experts to protect it, it's just waiting to be devoured!"
"What do you think, Grandpa Feng?"
Zong Ze nodded and then looked at Han Feng!
"I think the young master is right!"
Han Feng replied, "My great-grandfather seemed to have mentioned before that sect-level strength usually has more than two experts at the Opening Heaven Realm!"
"That's right!"
Zong Ze said, "The city lord of Chaos City is able to suppress all these forces, big and small, in this Chaos City with his own strength and the support of Chaos Ridge, which seems to have lost its appeal and cohesion. Do you think this city lord is a simple person? Can he give face to the old man just because he is a Transcending Tribulation stage expert and ignore our attack on the Black Rock Gang?"
"That's right!"
Han Zhixuan's eyes widened: "Then why do I feel that Grandpa and Sister Hong look so confident?"
"What do you think?"
Instead of answering Han Zhixuan's question, Zong Ze posed the question to everyone else.
Han Feng shook his head; he couldn't figure it out.
Jin Canjin's eyes lit up: "Could it be that the city lord of Chaos has some kind of weakness that the old man and the others have caught in their hands, which is why the old man and the others are so fearless?"
"Snapped!"
Jin Canjin had barely finished speaking when Han Feng smacked him on the head: "Do you think this city lord is as stupid as you? That he could have something on someone else's hands?"
If someone else hit him, Jin Canjin could fight back, but when facing Han Feng, who was closely related to the older generation of the Jin family, Jin Canjin could only cover his head and mutter under his breath, which made Han Zhixuan unable to help but laugh.
Just then, a weak voice rang out!
"Young Master, I think..."
