Ye Xuanji's mind went blank as he stood rooted to the ground. In the middle of the night, the Bureau Chief hurriedly summoned him. He rushed over without stopping and did not expect to see Tang Zheng.
In addition … the atmosphere between Tang Zheng and the Bureau Chief seemed to be a bit unusual.
The guards outside the room did not expect that there would be another person in the room. They did not hear the commotion and were shocked as they shouted loudly.
Tang Zheng glanced at them indifferently and did not pay them any attention. Instead, his gaze fell on Ye Xuanji.
Ye Xuanji's heart trembled as his mouth tasted bitter, as if he had eaten Chinese goldthread. He bitterly looked at Tang Zheng and said: "Tang Zheng, if you have anything to say then let go of the leader first."
Tang Zheng was not moved. He looked around and asked: "Are you the helper he invited?"
Ye Xuanji wanted to say no and turn around to leave. However, he could not say that because the Bureau Chief's intention for summoning him was obvious. It was to let him restrict Tang Zheng. However, how could he have that ability?
"Ye Xuanji, I did not call you here to stare. Tang Zheng is going against his superiors. Hurry up and arrest him." The Bureau Chief seemed to have finally found a backing as he roared hysterically.
Ye Xuanji was in a dilemma. In the end, he braced himself and stepped forward. He faced Tang Zheng and said: "Tang Zheng, hurry up and let go of the Bureau Chief."
"If he doesn't hand over Xiao Bai, how can I let go?" Tang Zheng said jokingly.
Ye Xuanji did not understand the situation but he knew how important Xiao Bai was to Tang Zheng. When he heard this, he subconsciously looked at the Bureau Chief.
The Bureau Chief's face turned red as he raised his head and said hoarsely: "Don't listen to his nonsense. What Xiao Bai? I don't know anything about it. How can I arrest it?"
"But you …" Tang Zheng was just about to say the Bureau Chief's intentions towards Little Yue Yue, but when he saw the others glaring at him covetously, he swallowed his words and coldly snorted, saying: "No matter how you quibble, you will not be able to convince others. If you do not hand over Little White, I will not let this matter rest."
He was going all out this time.
Although the other party's identity was illustrious, he decided to take the risk for the sake of Xiao Bai's safety.
The Bureau Chief was angry and anxious. He didn't expect Tang Zheng to be so stubborn and bold, but there was nothing he could do.
Ye Xuanji didn't know whether to retreat or attack. He just stood there like an ant on a hot pan, not knowing what to do.
The two sides were in a stalemate.
Suddenly, Chi You's voice sounded above Tang Zheng's head.
"The Desolate aura has appeared again!"
Tang Zheng's eyelids twitched as he turned pale with fright. He secretly asked, "Chi You, what are you yelling about?"
"Tang Zheng, don't bite the hand that feeds you. I'm telling you that the Desolate Aura has appeared again. Don't you want to catch that person?" Chi You said unhappily.
Tang Zheng's head moved as he hurriedly asked, "You're saying that the person from the Yeh family who was possessed has appeared again?"
Chi You snorted and said, "If that wasn't the case, why would I be so anxious to remind you?"
"Where is he?" Tang Zheng impatiently asked.
"Just outside."
Tang Zheng looked deeply at the Bureau Chief and then looked outside the door. He couldn't help but become excited.
This person who was possessed was not weak. It was very strange for him to appear here at this time. Could it be that he had something to do with the Bureau Chief? In fact, the Bureau Chief sent this person and Number One to capture Little Yue Yue and Xiao Bai. In the end, Xiao Bai fell into this person's hands.
Otherwise, it didn't make sense who had the power to capture Xiao Bai.
Thinking about this, he increasingly felt that this was the case.
So, he made a prompt decision. He left the Bureau Chief behind and walked out the door.
The other guards wanted to stop him, but they forcefully swallowed their words. Without a doubt, if they tried to stop him, it would be like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.
Ye Xuanji looked at Tang Zheng suspiciously. He didn't know what he was going to do. Seeing that his attention was focused outside the wall, he followed his gaze but didn't notice anything strange.
"What is he going to do?"
Everyone had this question in their hearts. Even the Bureau Chief's arrogant voice lowered as he looked at him strangely.
Whoosh!
With a leap, Tang Zheng jumped onto the top of the wall and disappeared.
Everyone was relieved as if a heavy burden had been removed from their shoulders. They looked at each other, not knowing what Tang Zheng was trying to do.
The Bureau Chief had a sudden idea and said to Ye Xuanji, "Quickly chase after him and see what he's doing."
Ye Xuanji's face was bitter as he declined, "Tang Zheng's cultivation is shocking. It won't be easy to catch up with him."
The Bureau Chief frowned and said with an unkind expression, "You're not going?"
Would Ye Xuanji dare to not go?
He wouldn't dare!
So, he sighed and chased after him with his head lowered.
The Bureau Chief was still worried. He gave a few glances to his subordinates and a few of them chased after him.
The Bureau Chief looked at the night sky and fell into deep thought. This incident happened too quickly. He personally experienced the threat of death, causing him to be both shocked and angry. Of course, he was still pondering over the key points of this incident.
Tang Zheng was an arrogant and unruly person. Now, he was looking down on him more and more. He actually dared to be so disrespectful to him for a demon beast.
As for where Xiao Bai was, he obviously didn't know. However, he didn't doubt Tang Zheng's words. Xiao Bai must have gone missing. However, he couldn't rule out the possibility that Tang Zheng was using this as a pretext to make things difficult for him.
No matter what, Xiao Bai's disappearance was the key to resolving all of this.
The Bureau Chief was very clear that Xiao Bai wasn't an ordinary person. Even Number One died in their hands, so it was even more impossible for him to disappear for no reason. There must be more to it?
Could it be that there was another force involved in this incident?
Purposely capturing Xiao Bai so that Tang Zheng's anger would be directed at him. This was simply killing with a borrowed knife. What a vicious idea.
A cold light flashed in the Bureau Chief's eyes. He didn't deny his guess.
He had a deep understanding of the dangers of the world.
"Then who is it that wants to deal with me?"
In his mind, he filtered out possible candidates, but in the end, he couldn't be sure. Although he was called the Bureau Chief, in the capital, there were many Bureau Chiefs. Moreover, they were real Bureau Chiefs. They were all people in power.
He was only one of them. He had many enemies and opponents, both in the open and in the dark.
Everyone had the motive.
As for who had this power, he couldn't guess at the moment. Many people were old foxes. They hid their tails very well and wouldn't easily reveal it.
Even he, who was experienced and astute, might not know all the details.
He fell into deep thought and distress …
Tang Zheng chased after the prehistoric aura, but was told by Chi You that the prehistoric aura was moving quickly, and its speed was much faster than the last time. It was obvious that the other party's cultivation had increased a lot during this period of time.
"This person has become stronger. We have to catch him as soon as possible. Otherwise, it will be even harder to catch him in the future." The Inner Demons interrupted.
Tang Zheng obviously understood this logic. He raised his speed to the limit, and in the dark night, he could only see a gust of wind. He was like a whirlwind, and ordinary people wouldn't be able to see him clearly with their naked eyes.
He was a seventh stage Yuanying cultivator, which was a full three levels higher than the last time. However, the other party's speed was not weak at all. It had to be said that the other party's cultivation speed was not inferior to his.
"This is a ruthless character. He definitely wasn't a nobody back then." The Inner Demons evaluated.
Tang Zheng's head moved, and asked: "Chi You, didn't many of the creatures in the Prehistoric Heavenly Tomb sacrifice themselves in the Battle of Zhuolu? Could it be that this person is also your subordinate? "
Chi You was silent for a moment, then said: "The ones buried in the Prehistoric Heavenly Tomb are not only my clansmen, but also the clansmen of the Yellow Emperor. What if they are his subordinates?"
Tang Zheng thought so too. Without seeing the real person, it was impossible to be sure.
"We're close!" Suddenly, Chi You cried out in surprise. "Quick, take advantage of this momentum and close the distance."
Tang Zheng thought for a while, and continued to circulate his Innate Qi, his speed finally increased a little, the scenery on both sides became blurry, and only the sound of the wind could be heard, but there was only one thing that was very clear, and it was getting clearer and clearer, and that was the target.
Tang Zheng's pupils suddenly shrank, he stared at the figure in disbelief, and secretly exclaimed: "Woman!"
It was actually the figure of a woman.
He never thought that the person who was possessed by the Yeh family was actually a woman.
Chi You and the Inner Demons were also shocked, and exclaimed: "It's actually a woman, this means that the person who took over the body must have been a woman when he was alive."
A man would not occupy a woman's body, and a woman would not occupy a man's body. No one would have such a hobby, which was why they dared to make such an assertion.
"Back then, you didn't seem to have such a powerful female subordinate." The Inner Demons asked.
Chi You was silent for a moment, then said: "Indeed, the Nine Li Tribe is a man of honor, women would never go to the battlefield, and only the Yellow Emperor would do something like letting a woman go to the battlefield, hmph!"
Chi You seemed to disagree with the Yellow Emperor's way of doing things, and was rather critical.
The Inner Demons laughed and said, "Women are not weaker than men. What left the deepest impression on me was that there was a female general in the Yellow Emperor's camp. Many of your subordinates died at her hands, right?"
These words undoubtedly touched on Chi You's scar, and he flew into a rage: "Don't mention this woman."
"Haha, your subordinates were no match for her, so you can't even mention her? You are the great Chi You, and you don't even have the courage to do this? "The Inner Demons did not let go of any opportunity to attack Chi You, and ridiculed him.
Tang Zheng heard the conversation between the two, and muttered in his heart. Women could hold up half the sky, and Chi You looked down on women. In today's terms, it was male chauvinism.
The Yellow Emperor was obviously smarter, and used women, which would definitely make the current feminists very happy.
The ancient times were a patriarchal society, and men held the absolute leadership in both family and social relations. Powerful women like the Nine Heavens Fairy were few and far between, and if she was not the Emperor Of Heaven's daughter, she might not have become like this.
Not to mention the ancient times.
