Inside one of the interrogation rooms, the first person to be interrogated, Xiao Zizai, was already in place.
"Relax, Xiao Zizai. I'll only ask a few questions, just about Biyou Village. It won't involve your daily life or anything else," said Bi Youlong, one of the directors of Nadutong Company, with a smile.
Xiao Zizai grinned, smiled, and couldn't help but nod.
"Let's get ready to begin." Bi Youlong gestured to his subordinates to put the special helmet on Xiao Zizai and check the testing equipment.
Once everything was ready, Bi Youlong asked, " Xiao Zizai, did you have any in-depth contact with Ma Xianhong in Biyou Village?"
"We've had contact, but nothing in depth."
"My second question is, have you ever seen Ma Xianhong's Self-Cultivation Furnace? How much do you know about it?"
"All that was seen was the damaged Self-Cultivation Furnace. All that was known about it was that the Self-Cultivation Furnace could give ordinary people a chance to transform into Evolver."
"Alright, one last question: Have you obtained one of the Eight Impure Techniques, the Divine Machine Hundred Refinements?"
Xiao Zizai shook his head, denying it.
" Xiao Zizai, thank you for your cooperation. You can go back now. Also, please let the next one, Old Meng, in."
As time passed, the temporary workers Old Meng, Wang Zhenqiu, Black Pipe from each work area passed their interrogations without any abnormalities.
"Next."
Zhang Chulan, Xu San, and Xu Si were a little nervous at this moment, as it would soon be Feng Baobao's turn. Meanwhile, Xiao Tian, who had been making a promise, had vanished without a trace.
" Feng Baobao, it's your turn," Black Pipe said with a smile.
"Okay." Feng Baobao didn't think much about it and easily entered the room, sat on the specially made interrogation chair, and had a special helmet put on her.
Bi Youlong chuckled and asked a few trivial questions, after which Feng Baobao left unscathed.
Xu Si, Xu San, Zhang Chulan breathed a sigh of relief.
After the temporary workers were interrogated, it was Zhang Chulan's turn as the temporary assistant.
As Zhang Chulan entered the room and took a close look at Bi Youlong of the board of directors, he suddenly realized something.
Bi Youlong has been replaced!
Half an hour later, in a bathroom, the real Bi Youlong woke up. He had no idea that his brain had been manipulated and stuffed with the memories of the interrogation workers, Zhang Chulan, and others. At this moment, he was urinating.
"I'm a little tired. I'll have a good meal and rest afterward. I still need to go to the Dark Fortress tomorrow."
Inside a private room at a five-star hotel, three kilometers away from the headquarters of Nadutong Company.
"Thanks to Old Xiao, this crisis has been averted. The old man is also making arrangements, so the Baobao's matter is basically over. But Old Xiao, you're in a bit of trouble." Xu Si smiled, staring at Xiao Tian.
Xiao Tian, munching on a large lobster, curled his lip and said disdainfully, "What trouble could I possibly have?"
"As far as I know, you used your identity to let Wang Ye and Zhuge Qing go. Since they both appeared in Biyou Village, the company won't let them go uninvestigated. The situation in Biyou Village is complicated and has many connections; even higher-ups are watching." Xu Si said gloatingly.
"It's alright, I'll handle it when the time comes." Xiao Tian said dismissively.
A short while later, a phone call came in; it was from Director Zhao Fangrui.
" Little Xiao, you really know how to stir things up. Why did you let Wang Ye and Zhuge Qing leave? The higher-ups are paying close attention to Biyou Village, so let's bring Wang Ye and Zhuge Qing here to go through the formalities."
"Okay, I'll contact them both." Xiao Tian assured him and then hung up.
Zhang Chulan frowned and said, " Brother Tian, are you planning to pull this trick again? This time it might be different."
"Don't worry, I have my own methods."
After the banquet, Xiao Tian instructed Guihua to take Chen Duo and Xiao Wanwan, the beautiful puppet, to a place to stay.
Xiao Tian then arrived at a ruined building.
" Er Zhuang, do me a favor. I know you can hear me," Xiao Tian muttered, holding his phone.
Suddenly, Er Zhuang sent Xiao Tian a cute emoji on WeChat.
" Xiao Brother Tian, you seem to know my abilities? You know I'm secretly watching you? (Shy GIF)"
"Okay, do me a favor. Conceal all traces of Zhuge Qing and Wang Ye within this week. Also, help me block other units from monitoring my communications with Wang Ye and Zhuge Qing."
"Great! WOW"
"No rush. I'll send a message to Wang Ye and Zhuge Qing asking them to come. Don't block this part."
After sending WeChat to Wang Ye and Zhuge Qing, asking them to come and share their coordinates with him.
" Er Zhuang, start blocking."
Er Zhuang: "Okay! Wow!"
Xiao Tian smiled, and then continued to send messages to Wang Ye and Zhuge Qing, telling them not to come back.
Zhuge Qing: "What's going on?"
"Don't ask. Disappear for a week. Do not appear in public and be discovered, or even a god can't save you! (Regarding Biyou Village, Divine Machine Hundred Refinements )"
Zhuge Qing's expression changed drastically after reading this message.
"I knew I couldn't escape. Since Xiao Tian can help me, that's for the best."
"Okay, Xiao Tian, thanks!" After sending the message, Zhuge Qing changed his previous plans and decided to go on vacation in the deep mountains for a few days.
Afterwards, Xiao Tian explained the science to Wang Ye according to the law.
Wang Ye was troubled at this moment because he was being watched by a scoundrel.
" Old Xiao, I'm afraid that won't work. That bastard Chen Jinkui is keeping an eye on me."
"Damn it!" Xiao Tian's face darkened. Chen Jinkui was ruining his plans.
"I'll handle it. You just need to disappear for seven days. I'll take care of the company's interrogation of you. That's it. Just reply 'OK' in three minutes."
"Okay." Wang Ye's heart skipped a beat. Nadutong interrogating Biyou Village, which must be for the sake of Divine Machine Hundred Refinements.
"Now I owe Old Xiao a huge favor. Alright, I'm outta here."
At this moment, Xiao Tian ordered Er Zhuang to remove the shield.
Immediately, Zhao Fangrui, Bi Youlong, and others were relieved to have monitored the messages Wang Ye and Zhuge Qing sent to Xiao Tian through their colleagues in the Internet Surveillance Department.
" Er Zhuang, thank you. If there's an opportunity in the future, perhaps I can help you regain your ability to move."
Er Zhuang: "Whether it's true or not, thank you, Xiao Brother Tian! Happy GIF."
Xiao Tian Xiao, quite fond of this temporary worker, Er Zhuang, who liked to act cute. After leaving the abandoned building and meeting up with Guihua and Chen Duo, he boarded the same plane as Zhang Chulan, Xu San, Xu Si, and Feng Baobao to return to Jinzhou.
At Jinzhou Airport, Xiao Tian contacted Chen Jinkui, one of the Ten Elders, as soon as he got off the plane.
"Let's go, let's go get a free meal. You guys have to eat as much of this guy's feast as possible."
Seeing Xiao Tian speaking mysteriously, Zhang Chulan, Xu Si, Xu San, and Feng Baobao became interested.
"Let's go see which unlucky guy it is."
At 8 PM, when Zhang Chulan, Xu Si, and the others saw the unlucky guy's true face, they were shocked.
" Master Xiao! You've finally arrived! Come, have a seat!"
Upon seeing Xiao Tian arrive, Chen Jinkui immediately pulled out a chair for him, and then symbolically greeted Xu Si, Xu San, and the others.
" Old Chen, this private room is pretty good. Order plenty of dishes later, or I might throw a tantrum if we don't have enough."
Chen Jinkui smiled and said, "Don't worry, Master Xiao, there will be plenty of food tonight. Even if the hotel runs out of ingredients, I, Old Chen, will make sure they get more and cook it up as soon as possible."
"Well, let's chat about Wang Ye." Xiao Heavenly Eye were teasing.
Chen Jinkui quickly laughed it off, indicating that his relationship with Wang Ye was merely one of mutual respect between sorcerers, and he would absolutely not make things difficult for Wang Ye.
Xu Si and Xu San were astonished. The fact that Chen Jinkui, one of the Ten Elders, was so humble and subservient showed just how fascinating the story was.
Although Chen Jinkui was good at stirring up trouble, he was also a shrewd person. He kept trying to please Xiao Tian at the dinner table and did everything himself. However, after more than half an hour, he panicked.
The hotel manager stated that there weren't enough lobsters, and the seafood was almost all eaten up; restocking would take time.
" Laozi don't care what methods you use, just get the goods as fast as possible! Money is no problem! If my esteemed guest is even slightly unhappy, you lot can forget about working at this hotel!" Chen Jinkui's Kamui the hotel manager and his entourage tremble with fear, and they nodded repeatedly.
Chen Jinkui returned to the private room, his expression instantly changing to a warm and friendly smile.
" Master Xiao, the hotel kitchen will be replenishing the supplies soon. Let's have a few drinks."
"Um."
After downing a few bottles of wine, Xiao Tian asked, " Old Chen, you've been so great, I won't treat you badly. Come to my place tomorrow at this time, I'll give you something nice."
Chen Jinkui's eyes lit up; was there finally a solution for the Fenghou Qimen?
"But it's not what you're thinking of. That kind of thing is really not suitable for you right now."
Upon hearing this, Chen Jinkui's hope was somewhat extinguished, but the thought of getting closer to Xiao Tian was still a huge win.
" Master Xiao, you misunderstand. That thing is good, but I, Chen, believe in 'fate.' When the time is right, everything will be fine. Since it hasn't come, I won't force it."
"Hahaha, as expected of the leader of the Shuzi School, insightful indeed."
After the banquet, Xiao Tian left together with Zhang Chulan, Xu Si, Xu San, and Feng Baobao.
" Old Xiao, Chen Jinkui is still not to be underestimated. Even though you are stronger than him, you must know that times have changed," Xu Si reminded him.
"Don't worry, Chen Jinkui knows what he's doing. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been burned unconscious back then," Xiao Tian chuckled.
Xu Si and Xu San's hearts skipped a beat. Although they had guessed that Chen Jinkui had been attacked by the mysterious fire- Evolver and was seriously injured, Xiao Tian's admission made the situation different.
The Ten Elders of the Evolver World represent ten individuals with immense influence in the Evolver World.
" Old Xiao, is there any progress on the other matter?"
Xiao Tian knew that Xu Si was referring to the matter of Wang Ye and Zhuge Qing being summoned.
"Almost done, just going through the motions. It's getting late, everyone should get some rest. Goodbye."
After the separation, Zhang Chulan returned to his room at the base, but he couldn't sleep. The trip to Biyou Village made him even more eager to know the truth about the Jiashen Rebellion, and he recalled what his advisor, the Old Celestial Master Zhang Zhiwei, had said.
"Logically speaking, Grandpa's first stop was the Tang Sect, but why did he end up..."
"If it's not feasible to probe the Old Celestial Master's territory, what about the Tang Sect?!"
Zhang Chulan had an idea and quickly took out his phone.
" Brother Tian, how about coming to the Tang Sect with me later?"
"Yes, teach me the Origin of Qi."
