In the guest hall of the courtyard, after Chen spoke, there was complete silence!
This answer was far beyond their expectations. Yao Yao's beautiful eyes were filled with shock as she quickly looked at Sheng. After all, Qi was Sheng's son. Qi had become a name that could not be spoken in Sengoku as it would make Sheng sad. Now that it was brought up, especially at such a time, how could they not be shocked!
Sheng's body froze, and even half of the energy in his body dissipated instantly. He stared at Chen in disbelief as if he could not believe what he had just heard.
Lu An was also shocked. After looking at Sheng's condition, he looked at Chen seriously again. He felt that Chen was not lying, and the possibility of him lying at such a time was very small. However, he could not make a judgment immediately, and had to listen carefully.
Sheng quickly recovered, took a deep breath, and asked loudly, "What do you mean? What did he do again?! "
Chen knew that he could not escape now that he had said it. He did not want to hide it anymore. He took a deep breath, swallowed his saliva, and tried to calm himself down. "This happened five years ago …"
Five years ago?
Sheng's face darkened. He did not expect the entire Sengoku to be kept in the dark after such a long time. No one had noticed Chen's abnormality!
"At that time, Sengoku had not been completely sealed off." Chen's voice was very low as he said, "After Qi betrayed Sengoku, one of my main missions was to find his whereabouts. Father ordered me to try my best to capture him alive and bring him back. If that was not possible, I could only kill him. So many years ago, I began to lead a group of people to search for him. "
"I was searching for Qi while carrying out other missions, and collecting information all over the world. At first, I did not find anything for a year, but five years ago, I suddenly received news about Qi while carrying out a mission. At that time, I was in the capital of a country. It was said that a month ago, a general was killed on the street because he offended a young man, and there was a bounty on his head. I saw the portrait on the bounty, and it was Qi. "
"After that, I followed the clues and finally received news about Qi in a neighboring country to the west, and confirmed that it was a city that appeared three days ago. I led people to the city and began to search. Although the city was small, the surrounding area was very far. In order to search further, we spread out to search. "
Spread out?
Lu An narrowed his eyes.
"At that time, Qi's strength was only equivalent to level seven. He was no match for any of us." Chen said, "I went to the southwest to search. I didn't expect that … I would really find traces of Qi and follow the clues to find him."
"You've seen him?" Sheng's expression changed immediately. "Why didn't you report this to Sengoku?!"
Sheng was furious, while Chen's face was even paler. His breathing was unstable, and it was obvious that he was panicking.
Lu An looked at Sheng and said, "Senior, let him finish first."
Upon hearing Lu An's words, Sheng took a deep breath. He knew that it would not be too late to question Lu An after he finished speaking. He looked at Chen and shouted, "Continue!"
"At that time, I was very excited when I found Qi's clues." Chen's voice was trembling. He took a deep breath and said, "Because I'm strong, I didn't wait for my companions to arrive. I went straight into the forest to search."
The three of them knew that Chen and Qi were not in the same realm at that time. Qi was probably only a level seven expert back then. If he remembered correctly, Chen was already at the peak of level eight, or even a level nine expert. It was normal for Chen to have the confidence to chase after him.
"I successfully found him." Chen's voice trembled as he said, "But … I lost the fight."
As soon as he said that, the three of them were shocked!
Lost the fight?
How was that possible?!
There was no difference in attributes between them. Even if there was, it would be because Chen's Immortal Qi was purer than Qi's. How could this happen?
"That's impossible!" Sheng immediately said, "What happened?"
"Of course, he was no match for me, but … he had companions." Chen's voice was very soft. He was filled with guilt and did not dare to look Sheng in the eyes. He said, "He had two companions protecting him, and both of them were stronger than me. After the big battle, I was no match for them. I was defeated very quickly and was … captured. "
Captured?
Sheng's face darkened. It was definitely not a small matter that Chen was captured. Fortunately, five years ago, Chen did not have access to the core secrets of Sengoku, let alone the most important secrets. The most important secrets would only be revealed after the Divine Master had decided on his successor.
"And then?" Sheng immediately asked.
"I was severely injured and was captured for interrogation. Qi only asked me a few questions casually. These questions were not important. " Chen suddenly raised his head and quickly explained, "But I did not answer any of them. I am a member of Sengoku. No matter how small the secret is, I will not reveal it!"
Seeing Chen's anxious expression, Sheng's expression did not ease. He would not easily believe what Chen said. Lu An was the same. He only listened quietly.
"When he saw that I did not say anything, he did not continue to ask," Chen said, "I asked him why he betrayed Sengoku and who his two companions were. Then … he told me the identities of these two people. "
"The Deathkin?" Sheng immediately asked.
"Yes …" Chen nodded, his voice trembling.
"At that time, you did not know about the Deathkin, right?" Sheng asked again.
"I did not know …" Chen did not dare to look at Sheng. He lowered his head and said, "But … Qi told me everything."
Everything?
Lu An narrowed his eyes and asked, "What is everything?"
"It's about the history of this world and the war with the Deathkin," Chen looked at Lu An and said.
Sheng knew what Lu An meant. There were many ways to describe history and it could be told from many angles, not to mention maliciously tampering with it. What Qi said was very important because when Qi betrayed Sengoku, he was not qualified to know these secrets. In other words, whatever Qi told Chen could be the same as what the Deathkin told Qi. The difference in the truth could lead one to choose a completely different path.
Therefore, Sheng asked, "I want to hear the details!"
"He said … a million years ago, Sengoku led people to invade their galaxy," Chen immediately said, "Both sides suffered great losses in the first battle and the subsequent battles were the same. He said that the Deathkin had to take the initiative to attack in order to prevent Sengoku from continuing their invasion. They wanted to destroy the main force of our galaxy before we could attack. "
"The main force?" Sheng frowned and asked, "What do you mean? Who are you referring to? "
"The Hachiko clan and … Sengoku, Yanxing clan, and Mingyue clan," Chen's voice was very soft and he did not dare to say it out loud.
However, no matter how soft his voice was, the three of them could hear him clearly! Sheng was furious and his face turned red. He shouted at Chen, "So you chose to work with him and attack your own clan? Is that right?! "
"No! I really did not! " Chen immediately raised his head and looked at Sheng. Although his face was extremely pale, he quickly waved his hand and said, "He wanted me to work with him and become a spy for Sengoku to provide him with information! However, he said that he would ensure that Sengoku would survive and would not let Sengoku perish like the other clans! "
"You believe what he said?" Lu An looked at Chen and said, "Since you know about the Deathkin, it means that you know about this history from Sengoku. No matter which side was willing to stop the war, do you think that the Deathkin would let Sengoku continue to exist after winning the war? "
"Of course I don't believe it!" Chen immediately said, "I have never believed what he said!"
Lu An was slightly stunned and asked, "Then why? You could have tricked them into agreeing to work with you to get yourself out of this. However, since you are talking about working with me, it means that you are still in contact with them or even working with them. Otherwise, it would be meaningless for you to talk to me about this. "
"I … I …" Chen immediately stuttered, as if he did not know what to say.
Sheng was instantly enraged and shouted, "Speak!"
Chen's body trembled. At this point, he no longer hid anything and said, "Because I wanted to use him … to destroy the Hachiko clan!"
