Rhine heard Qu Jianlei's words and shook his head casually, "It's not what you think. There is a saying in this land..."

This land was originally owned by a small family. Later, the government planned it as an office area, and the land price skyrocketed.

There were many disputes surrounding this land. All members of the small family were killed and injured, and the land deeds were also lost.

Later, the government's site selection was changed, and the popularity of this land subsided, but even so, the transfer of this land would still be potentially troublesome.

Rhine is a local and knows the potential trouble here.

"You should treat this piece of land as giving it to us Haiyin Family. I will replace it with a manor for you... it will only be better than this."

Qu Jianlei heard this and Diandian said, "Okay, how much price difference do you need to pay?"

"The price difference is waived," Rhine smiled, "If I ask for the price difference from you, am I still a human being?"

"Just move in and leave the rest to me."

Xiang Xue suddenly spoke, "Leave a few guards and tell them not to wander around. Is that okay?"

"Of course," Rhine smiled Diandian, "I know you are a difficult guy... Don't worry, no one dares to disobey me."

So that afternoon, the group moved to a manor.

This manor occupies an entire hilltop, and there is a spring flowing out of the top of the mountain. It is really a good place with beautiful mountains and clear waters.

Paranoid spoke, "Birdsong Stream... This was a battlefield in the past."

Rhine has been thinking in his heart, who is this supreme being? Hearing this, he couldn't help but ask, "Senior, have you ever been here before?"

Paranoid ignored her and simply said, "It's really good to practice here."

That afternoon, the estate was settled and transferred to the name of Claire - her fake identity.

Then Qu Jianlei started to lay out the formation. After Defense Array and the like were laid out, Qi Gathering Array was laid out.

Bentley and the others were no strangers to Qi Gathering Array. As soon as the formation was arranged, they began to practice step by step.

This was the first time she saw Xiang Xue. There could be Qi Gathering Array outside the military, but she didn't show much surprise.

After all, her supreme father is not a stickler for rules, and he really doesn't want to play too many side games.

So after the initial shock, she happily went in to practice, "Boss really has a way!"

As for hiding Qi Gathering Array privately, it may be a serious illegal act, but so what?

Those who are bound by the law are always the general public. It is not a big deal if a few privileged classes occasionally go out of their way.

Seeing everyone starting to practice, Paranoid looked at Qu Jianlei, "Where is the formation to gather spiritual energy?"

Qu Jianlei stretched out his hand and said, "Bring your formation... bring it here!"

Paranoid hesitated, and then took out a sign that was neither gold nor stone from Item-Storing Talisman. It looked like a shield.

Qu Jianlei glanced at it and his face suddenly darkened, "Half a piece... are you kidding me?"

"I..." Paranoid hesitated for a moment, and then finally said, "I only have half a piece!"

"You can die!" Qu Jianlei didn't know the secret at all, and sent out a spiritual attack heavily, "How brave!"

"No!" Paranoid snorted lowly, raised his hand and punched out a puff of gray powder, "Listen to my explanation!"

Apart from anything else, this gray powder is really amazing. It actually absorbs a lot of Mental Strength.

Paranoid's Mental Strength is a little worse than Qu Jianlei, but with the help of Gray Powder, it actually blocked this blow.

His body swayed and his face turned a little pale, but he still shouted, "Don't you want the second half?"

"I would rather not play half of it," Qu Jianlei sneered, and launched another divine attack, "I would rather not accept deception!"

"The second half is in Divine Script Society!" Paranoid spilled another ball of Gray Powder, his body swayed, and blood flowed from his mouth and nose!

"I was plotted and half of it was taken away. I never said that I had a complete formation in my hand!"

Qu Jianlei After hearing this, thinking about it carefully, it is true that this guy did not say that the formation in his hand was complete.

However, does intentional misleading not constitute deception?

He sneered and put away Gathering Spirit Array, "I took away this half set of formations and found the Body Seizure body for you. I'm done!"

He was actually quite unwilling to be so clear-cut, but he saw too many familiar shadows in Paranoid.

Yes, there was a time when he had the same feelings and reactions.

Leave it to him to be Paranoid. If there is a chance to escape from the mud, why not seize it?

In the process of seizing an opportunity, you need to lie a little - it's not even a lie. You can't choose to tell the truth, right? This is what the so-called empathy is. A while ago, he even wanted to give Kai Rui a chance, but it was a pity that the guy was seeking death on the pole.

Now he is willing to let the other side go. Cooperation is impossible, but there is no need to become enemies, right?

But if the opponent is reluctant to part with this half of the formation, then you can't blame him for not giving the opponent a chance.

"Liang Qing?" Paranoid rolled her eyes at him, "Are you looking for an opportunity to silence yourself?"

"Shut up?" Qu Jianlei was startled when he heard this, and then he actually laughed, "I really forgot!"

To be honest, the other party has a lot of his secrets, the most important ones are Gathering Spirit Array and artificial intelligence, and No Attribute also counts.

He had already thought about it. If the other party dared to leave voluntarily, he would definitely silence him.

It's just that this half of Teleportation Array's information was a bit beyond his expectation, which made him ignore it.

In anger, he just wanted to cut off from the other person - in fact, it was also his subconscious empathy that was at work.

It's good now that the other party actually reminded him: If you want to let me go, you have to silence me!

Paranoid is just paranoid, not stupid!

"Really forgot?" Paranoid looked at him suspiciously, "Why do I think... you are setting a trap for me?"

He has a high self-esteem and has once set foot on Above Supreme, so he will not take the supreme in his eyes.

But facing the supreme leader No Attribute, he had to admit that this person could indeed cause him a lot of trouble.

Not to mention that now that he has a body, the opponent has a target to strike with precision, which makes it even more dangerous.

It seems that it's really hard to give up casually! Qu Jianlei shook his head helplessly.

"Then I'll give you another chance. Where is the remaining half of the formation in Divine Script Society?"

"One of my assistants took him away," Paranoid replied through gritted teeth, "His name is Pierre."

The reason why he didn't tell Qu Jianlei about this in advance was that he was worried that he didn't have enough chips, and it was embarrassing.

But now, he had to hand over half of the formation. Even if his underwear was exposed, there was no need to cover it up.

Pierre is his personal assistant at Divine Script Society, and has some other connections. The young man is also smart and very trustworthy by him.

He has no official status in Divine Script Society, he is more like a consultant or something. He just wanted to get more access to Divine Script information.

So after meeting Qu Jianlei, he said that he belonged to Divine Script Society, which was not a lie.

When he found that Divine Script Society was of little help to him, he left there without even having to go through the formalities.

At that time, Pierre was already at the peak of Rank A. He was young and promising, but he left Divine Script Society with him.

Paranoid looked at Pierre as if he saw himself when he was young, and he took great care of him.

But generally speaking, he still doesn't know how to show concern for someone.

Because his character is very self-centered, he would like to be nice to someone based on his temper. On the outside, he would even hit or scold him at every turn.

Does beating and scolding necessarily mean torture? That's not necessarily true. The people of the Empire admire iron-bloodedness and don't like to cultivate flowers in the greenhouse.

The mentality of "beating and scolding is for your own good" is really common.

Paranoid didn't realize this problem at the beginning. Anyway, he thought he had good intentions.

But the four hundred years of silence underground... the two hundred years were enough for him to think carefully about his life.

Why did Pierre, whom I trusted and cared about so much, betray him? He guessed it was because of this, but until now, he was not sure.

Because Pierre has always been very respectful, so when he attacked Above Supreme, he called this person to protect the law.

Generally speaking, if Rank A has an impact on the Supreme, the Supreme should be invited to protect the law - if there are no conditions, hiding in the military Cultivation Room is fine.

But for the supreme impact Above Supreme, you basically have to find a place where no one is around to retreat in silence.

The reason is very simple. Above Supreme is just a theoretical realm, and there is no recognized path to follow.

The process of exploration and impact is a very personal matter in itself.

I have invited other Supreme Protectors. If I fail, death will not be the hardest thing to accept. It will be embarrassing to survive by luck and be laughed at by others.

What if it succeeds? Please, after all the hard work, we have found such a way, why should we let others benefit in vain?

This has nothing to do with selfishness or not. This is the ethos of the empire. Building information barriers is a basic understanding.

Therefore, attacking Above Supreme is a very private matter, and it is not appropriate to seek high-level Awakened One protectors.

However, at the same time, this is a long process, and it is inappropriate to have no one to look after it.

Paranoid believes that it might take a few years for him to hit Above Supreme.

So he arranged for Pierre to take care of him. If he needed some outside help, the other party could help.

Facts have proved that what he thought was not wrong. It took him more than three years for that impact.

In the beginning, Pierre really took good care of me. Most of the time, the other party would make arrangements without him having to speak.

But when he hit Above Supreme and began to collect his body to stabilize his state, something went wrong with Pierre.

This person waited for about a month and tentatively asked what happened.

Paranoid was worried at that time because the body was too difficult to close.

He wasn't even sure he could pull it off, so he didn't answer.

As a result, after waiting for another seven or eight days, seeing him becoming more and more silent, Pierre actually tentatively put away half of the formation.
