Reasoning Backward

Who is Ron?

This remains a mystery to everyone.

Not only did Zhang Xuezhou and the others not know who Ron was, but even Pei Ying and the others, who had searched in vain, couldn't figure it out after they reunited.

"Qing'an needs to be dealt with seriously!"

Li Yingbo was still in pain from poisoning, so Ren Yisheng could only make brief arrangements.

"This turmoil in the twilight of life should be studied as a key case!"

He pondered for a few seconds, and his suggestion for follow-up treatment delighted Pei Ying.

If the rebellion is characterized as a disturbance in old age, the impact on the Pei family will be reduced many times over.

"I will definitely conduct a thorough investigation throughout Qing'an and strive to deliver a satisfactory report to Western Capital City as soon as possible," Pei Ying assured, patting his chest. "I am also willing to become a member of the Qing'an Provincial Committee and contribute my humble efforts to our committee!"

Pei Ying, who was originally considered a pawn to be abandoned, made the right choice and became the only survivor of the second generation of the Pei family, as well as the true heir of the Pei family.

Many Sixth Sequence Holder in Qing'an Province were killed, yet Pei Ying, Fifth Sequence individual, managed to maintain his foothold.

He quickly pledged his loyalty and swiftly integrated himself into the Western Capital City Committee.

This change filled Zhou Bo with unease and also made Huo Deqian's face solemn.

As two provincial committee members who participated in quelling the rebellion in Qing'an, they were deeply affected and unwilling to see the same tragedy happen again.

Once you find yourself caught up in it against your will, this upheaval can be unbearable for many.

In particular, the return of Zhou Rihui, who was rumored to be seriously injured, was like a demon king in battle, blocking the front line and drawing away the abilities of many Sequence Holder. The intervention of Ren Yisheng and others turned the protracted battle into an instantaneous killing battle.

Zhou Bo sent out messages repeatedly and received messages from the Western Capital City Committee from time to time. Looking at the internal exchanges within Western Capital City, he felt a heavy weight in his heart.

They were trained here, and the committee members who were stranded in Western Capital City and did not come to Qing'an were obviously also forcibly conscripted to participate in suppressing the rebellion.

The number of blows was secondary; the most important issue was that many committee members witnessed the tragic end of Pei Li and others who plotted rebellion, and were also suffering from the psychological trauma.

As news from Qing'an continues to arrive, this confrontation involving Western Capital City and Qing'an Province will inevitably become more complete, serving as a warning to many.

"Let's go back to Western Capital first!"

Ren Yisheng and his group arrived in Qing'an Province in a hurry, and returned to Western Capital City just as quickly.

It's not that they're unwilling to stay longer in Khanh An province or utilize its medical resources, but the risks of remaining in Khanh An province while things are not over are high.

In the end, only Song Bu'er, who was in charge of supervision, remained in Qing'an Province.

Is there any connection between Ron and Zodiac?

On the private plane back to Western Capital City, Ren Yisheng asked Zhang Xuezhou was resting with his eyes closed, in a low voice.

"I don't know," Zhang Xuezhou shook his head. "Whether it's Zhang Qiaoen's rebellion or Pei Jing's sabotage, there seem to be collaborators behind it all. It's hard to be sure if it's the same person!"

Is Zuo Quan considered a collaborator?

"That depends on the quality of the surveillance footage!"

Zhang Xuezhou and Ren Yisheng shared information, and both knew similar things.

Finding a single individual is like searching for a needle in a haystack, but dealing with a group can be done by meticulously analyzing the details.

Ren Yisheng mentioned Zuo Quan in a low voice. He also knew very well that Zuo Quan was not Luo En. After all, Zuo Quan had been in Western Capital City and had not come to Qing'an Province. It was almost impossible for him to cause trouble for Pei Jing.

"What's wrong with Ning Que?" Ren Yisheng asked.

"It seems Luo Zhong possessed his body before he died," Zhang Xuezhou said. "It should be some kind of residual mental influence, which has somewhat altered him!"

"No wonder he could go toe-to-toe with An Ran," Ren Yisheng murmured. "I really didn't think that geniuses among ordinary people could be this strong!"

"There might be some true geniuses, but Ning Que is definitely good!"

Being able to perceive Luo Zhong on his own and leveraging the influence brought by Luo Zhong, Ning Que is embarking on an extremely risky path of cultivation.

The other party even gradually caught up with many others, but this was not entirely due to Luo Zhong's efforts, but rather because Ning Que himself was an extremely outstanding talent.

After Rong Tianding obtained the secret manual of the Shijiao School, Zhang Xuezhou gained a more complete understanding of life and death.

The dead are hard to bring back to life, just as a wandering ghost cannot temporarily occupy a body and become the original person. Ning Que will be affected by Luo Zhong, but Ning Que will not become Luo Zhong.

There are many great cultivators in the other world, and Zhang Xuezhou has never heard of any great cultivator who died in the physical body becoming another person by possessing another body through the possession of the three souls and seven spirits.

Even though the immortal Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon within Zhang Xuezhou's body hadn't been able to control him for decades, Zhang Xuezhou Zhang Xuezhou n't believe that Luo Zhong could possess Ning Que and revive him in such a short time.

Of course, even if Luo Zhong, the other party will no longer belong to the emperor of the Luofu Dynasty.

For the Scarlet Alliance State, where the hierarchy is paramount, even if Luo Zhong exceptional mental strength, he must obediently follow the rules of hierarchy to ascend the ranks. It is difficult for him to overthrow the overall social order through individual power.

You make a very good point!

Ren Yisheng put aside the possibility of Ning Que causing future troubles and nodded in agreement with Zhang Xuezhou's judgment.

He would even be pleased if Ning Que could contribute to the Scarlet Alliance State in the future.

"Do you think Zhang Qiaoen and Pei Jing's rebellion was aimed at overthrowing the order of precedence of the Alliance States?" Ren Yisheng asked after a moment's thought.

"Overturn the sequence rules?"

Zhang Xuezhou had a moment of doubt, but then suddenly felt enlightened and gained a new understanding of Zhang Qiaoen and Pei Jing's rebellion.

"In other words, the mastermind behind this is likely to Zuo Quan weak as Zuo Quan, making it difficult for him to infiltrate the Alliance States," Zhang Xuezhou said. "But he may also possess other abilities, placing him among the top experts!"

"Good!"

Ren Yisheng nodded, then looked at Zhang Xuezhou.

Leaving aside others, Zhang Xuezhou in front of him is a very obvious example.

Zhang Xuezhou's sequence strength is limited, but Zhang Xuezhou true combat power is very strong, almost equivalent to Seventh Sequence Holder.

No matter how strong Zhang Xuezhou's individual strength was, his opponent simply couldn't stand at the very top in the Alliance States.

If it weren't for the persistent efforts and reforms by Ren Yisheng and others, Zhang Xuezhou's highest possible status at this point would only be associate professor, and even becoming an associate professor would have required many trials and tribulations over time.

"If Ron can influence Pei Jing, his strength is probably no less than yours or mine," Zhang Xuezhou said.

"His individual strength is hard to say, but he undoubtedly possesses some very unique abilities," Ren Yisheng nodded.

The truth is always revealed through continuous discussion. Ron, who was initially a mystery, gradually became clearer to both Zhang Xuezhou and Ren Yisheng after their discussions, and they also understood the level of risk he posed.

"I originally thought Ron was Huang Daoxian, but Huang Daoxian doesn't seem to be able to Luo'an Province," Zhang Xuezhou said. "Otherwise, Huang Daoxian wouldn't have needed to set up a scheme in Luo'an Province, nor would he be able to go to Western Capital City to control the Luofu Dynasty."

"Um!"

"If Huang Daoxian could roam freely and overturn his behavior pattern of the past hundred years, then..."

Zhang Xuezhou used the word "seems" in his words, and then deduced the opposite.

But he didn't say that his ideas were necessarily correct.

If all their beliefs are overturned and Huang Daoxian's behavior patterns of the past hundred years are completely changed, it means that the high risks brought by the fire meteor beings are very likely to come to them at close range.

He touched his injured head, thinking about his Fortune Body, and then about Pei Jing's dying words about 'following the will of Heaven'.

If we deny everything we previously believed, his misfortune and Pei Jing's tragic end might be due to a power struggle between their destinies.
