“Wang Xiao, do you feel that something is wrong?”

Zhou Xiruo asked in Wang Xiao's ear. As if affected by the suppressed tension here, her voice was much softer than usual. “These people seem to be very nervous… Could they be preparing to fight?”

Wang Xiao thought for a moment and shook his head. “Our war with the

Crimson Star people has never stopped. There's no such thing as 'preparing to fight'. Something else must have happened.”

The two of them were chatting when the elevator door not far away suddenly opened. Qi Lianjun walked out with a few documents. He was also frowning and in a hurry. It was obvious that something big had happened.

Without any time to think, Wang Xiao hurriedly called Zhou Xiruo over.

“Adjutant Qi! I have something to discuss with Commander Chen!”

“… It's Wang Xiao?”

Qi Lianjun seemed to be thinking about something. He was stunned for a moment before recognizing Wang Xiao. Then, his expression turned serious and he said softly, “I know that you must be looking for Commander Chen for something serious, but we're very busy now. No matter what, we'll talk about it later!”

With that said, Qi Lianjun was about to leave when Wang Xiao hurriedly stopped him and whispered, “Adjutant Qi, I've discovered traces of a Purple

Star lord.”

“Purple Star lord?”

Zhou Xiruo was shocked upon hearing this. Even though she knew very little about the Purple Star, the ferocious and belligerent nature of the Purple Star creatures was renowned throughout the entire Myriad World Battlefield!

Wang Xiao had actually encountered such a dangerous person, but why did she not know anything?

Before Zhou Xiruo could figure it out, Qi Lianjun's raised foot froze in the air.

He suddenly turned around and looked at Wang Xiao. “Are you sure?”

Wang Xiao nodded heavily with a serious expression. “I fought him and the other party personally admitted it!”

Qi Lianjun was silent for a few seconds before suddenly handing the document to a passing soldier. “Follow me!”

With that, Qi Lianjun turned around and entered the elevator. Wang Xiao and Zhou Xiruo hurriedly followed, but the elevator did not go to the commander-in-chief's office on the top floor. Instead, it quickly brought them down.

While the elevator was going down, Qi Lianjun took out a pen and paper and looked at Wang Xiao. “Tell me what you encountered.”

Wang Xiao knew that this was very important, so he naturally did not dare to hide anything. He explained the ins and outs in detail, only hiding the fact that the Lord's Shop had sent him to privately explore the secret realm. He only said that he had gone to explore the secret realm with a few senior lords in order to study it.

With that said, the elevator also arrived deep underground in the military building.

As soon as the elevator door opened, Zhou Xiruo punched Wang Xiao heavily. “What's wrong with you?! Why didn't you bring me along for such a dangerous matter? Do you still treat me as your vassal lord?! ”

“I just thought of it at the last minute! I saw that you were shopping happily, so I didn't disturb you.”

Wang Xiao rubbed the place where he had been beaten and chuckled. “Moreover, I didn't know this would happen before I went. Otherwise, I would definitely have brought you along.”

Zhou Xiruo rolled her eyes and was about to speak when Qi Lianjun said, “Stop arguing first. I have a few things to confirm.”

Hearing this, Wang Xiao and Zhou Xiruo became serious.

Walking along the long corridor, Qi Lianjun asked by the side of the road, “You suspect that person is using the name Wu Yan. Do you know his true identity?” “I don't know.”

“You said that that person once injected a potion. Do you know what potion it is and what its effect is?”

“I don't know.”

“Other than [Hellfire Spirit] and [Flame Skeleton War Horse], does he have any other soldiers?” “I don't know.”

' ..One last question.”

Qi Lianjun was silent for a moment before stopping. He turned around and looked at Wang Xiao before asking in a low voice, “Have you confirmed that that person is a level five lord or did you just hear about it from him?”

“…I heard about it.”

Wang Xiao thought for a moment and replied seriously, “But a level five lord who was with me at that time confirmed it, so I think it's certain.”

“Got it. ”

Qi Lianjun nodded indifferently. It was unknown if he was satisfied with this answer. Then, he turned around and opened a door. Wang Xiao immediately saw Chen Jinrong sitting inside.

However, although Chen Jinrong was tall and straight, he could not hide the fatigue on his face. His eyes were bloodshot, as if he had not rested for a long time.

“Commander Chen! ”

“I know.”

Chen Jinrong waved his hand and interrupted Wang Xiao. As he spoke, he tilted his head slightly, revealing the earpiece he was wearing on the other side of his ear. “I heard everything you said just now.”

Wang Xiao was slightly stunned. He came back to his senses and probed, “Then what do you plan to do?”

“I don't know.”

Chen Jinrong shook his head and sighed helplessly. “You've already killed him. There's no way to interrogate him.”

Wang Xiao was speechless for a moment before whispering, “Commander

Chen, it was very difficult for us to leave anyone alive in that situation…”

“I know. I don't mean to blame you.”

Chen Jinrong smiled and continued in a different tone, “This matter ends here. Don't mention it to anyone when you return, understand?”

“That's it?”

Wang Xiao frowned when he heard this. “Before that Purple Star lord died, he said that this is not the end. On the way here, I thought about it carefully. The only possibility is that he has other accomplices. How can we stop here?” “I mean, this matter ends here for you.”

Chen Jinrong looked at Wang Xiao and said with a faint smile, “We'll investigate if that Purple Star lord has any accomplices and how many accomplices he has.”

“You're only a student and a level three lord. This is not something you can interfere in. Therefore, you should go back and prepare for the academy ranking assessment.”

After Chen Jinrong finished speaking, he waved his hand. Qi Lianjun understood tacitly and came to Wang Xiao. He raised his hand and made a “please” gesture. “We're very busy. You can go back first.”

“I'm not leaving.”

Wang Xiao shook his head firmly and looked at Chen Jinrong. He said firmly,

“Commander Chen, you have to let me interfere in this matter!”

Chen Jinrong smiled with interest. “Give me a reason.”

“Because I'm the target of those Purple Star people.”

Wang Xiao replied indifferently. Chen Jinrong and Qi Lianjun did not react. It was obvious that they had long known about this. Only Zhou Xiruo's expression instantly turned ugly.

“Wang Xiao! What did you say?”

Zhou Xiruo grabbed Wang Xiao and asked in shock, “You're the target of the

Purple Star people? How is this possible? You've probably never seen a Purple

Star person before, right?”

“It's my fault for not making it clear. To be precise, their target is the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon].”

Wang Xiao held Zhou Xiruo's hand and explained, “The [Dark Swamp Crocodile

Dragon] is not an ordinary soldier. It's a 'holy beast' specially nurtured by the Purple Star. It was stolen by Andu before it hatched. After Andu was captured, this beast egg also fell into the hands of the military—”

At this point, Wang Xiao looked at Chen Jinrong coldly.. “Commander Chen, I don't know what you're planning, but from the moment you treated me as bait, I could no longer stay out of it… right?”
