"and……"

When he said this, he paused, with a bitter smile on his face:

"Don't dare to lie to the envoy. In recent days, our Zhang family has encountered a catastrophe and suffered a lot. We don't have the energy to take care of the outside world."

"Oh?"

Chen Qingyu's expression changed, and he asked:

"Your Zhang family has suffered a catastrophe? Tell me about it."

Zhang Hechu took a deep breath, and quickly said:

"Is such that……"

"Half a year ago, someone in our Zhang family suddenly developed a strange disease, which would gradually weaken people, so that their meritorious deeds would be greatly damaged, and even their lifespan would plummet."

"This kind of disease will not only spread rapidly, but also the medicine stone is useless, and the panacea is ineffective. It is very scary!"

"We have thought of many ways and invited many medical professionals to come for diagnosis and treatment, but there is no solution."

As he spoke, he showed a wry smile:

"At that time, that terrible strange disease had infected the entire Zhang family, more than half of them."

"As a last resort, we can only temporarily blockade the inner city, isolate all the infected people separately, and do not hesitate to issue heavy rewards, facing the entire southern border, looking for talented people who can diagnose and treat this strange disease."

Chapter 208 Thoroughly investigate the clan records! The old lady of the Zhang family heard his words:

Chen Qingyu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly recalled what happened in front of the city gate, and suddenly said:

"So... At that time, in front of the inner city gate, the so-called assessment and selection was to select someone who could cure your Zhang's strange disease?"

"Correct!"

Zhang Hechu lowered his head and said softly:

"Although the strange disease has the same source, it manifests differently in different people."

"The higher the cultivation base, the faster the weakening speed."

"In order to find someone who can really diagnose and treat this strange disease, we have set up a selection process layer by layer."

"Many people, including our Zhang family's great powers, have contracted the disease, so we are the only ones left to meet the Holy Envoy..."

"okay!"

Chen Qingyu waved his hands and said:

"I don't want to hear what you said for now."

So far, he has never believed these words of Zhang's senior management:

the reason is simple:

It has been seven days since the change of Tianjian Mountain and the incarnation of that mysterious woman died.

If Yanggu Zhang is really manipulating all this behind the scenes, taking advantage of this gap period, he can completely disguise all the lies, arrange everything seamlessly, and not be afraid of people to check at all.

And these people are majestic and powerful people, and they can't tell whether what they say is true or not by simply asking questions or observing words and expressions.

The old fox who has lived for thousands of years, if he really wants to act, he must be better than the actor.

"This……"

Zhang Hechu's complexion changed, he lowered his head and said:

"The envoy is going to investigate my Zhang family thoroughly?"

"It's simple."

Chen Qingyu sat on the main seat, and slowly said:

"First, Mrs. Zhang must open up all land boundaries, including all your forbidden areas, and allow me to search."

"Secondly, Mrs. Zhang wants to open up the catalogs, all intelligence materials, and even the roster records of the existing direct descendants."

"Thirdly, I will ask and check alone, Mr. Zhang is not allowed to send anyone to follow; during the period of my investigation, no one is allowed to leave the city."

His goal is also very simple:

The senior members of the Zhang family may be able to fool him collectively, but it is impossible for those direct descendants with ordinary cultivation to be of one mind.

As long as someone reveals the slightest flaw, he can catch it, so as to find out the root cause and find the loophole.

Especially that mysterious woman, if she is really a person who encourages the Zhang family, she will definitely leave traces if she existed. This is a very important breakthrough.

As for signing in at the Taihe Altar, it is naturally a matter of course.

"……This!"

Zhang Hechu's face immediately changed when he heard the words.

The many high-ranking members of the Zhang family behind him also secretly clenched their fists and clenched their teeth, daring to speak out.

What a humiliating condition?

This is simply equivalent to kneeling on the ground and enduring it while stripping off your underpants for others to see.

Their Yanggu Zhang family is one of the strongest overlords in the southern border, second only to the top forces in the Holy Land, and they have always been used to being superior.

And they, as high-ranking members of the Zhang Clan, were either powerful in the Divine Treasure Realm or the Zhoutian Realm. Which of them wasn't a big shot who called the wind and rain, stomped their feet and trembled in the southern realm?

However -

They didn't dare to resist in the slightest in front of this little Spirit Yuan Realm.

When the other party is sitting, they can only stand; when the other party asks questions, they have to answer honestly, aggrieved like grandchildren.

"Um?!"

Chen Qingyu slightly raised his voice:

"Aren't you dissatisfied?"

"I dare not... I dare not wait."

Zhang Hechu felt bitter in his heart, but he could only lower his head, not daring to look into the eyes of the young man on the seat.

No matter how powerful the Yanggu Zhang family is, they will not be able to stand up against those who hold the azure talisman and represent many holy places of the human race.

"Then go down and get ready!"

With a wave of his sleeves, Chen Qingyu sent them away:

"Within today at the latest, I'm going to see all the collections in front of me."

"Also, don't forget to arrange a few guides for us. I'm not familiar with your Yanggu Zhang family."

"……Yes!"

Zhang Hechu and the others, feeling aggrieved and depressed, could only bow their bodies and retreat.

After they left Chaoyang Palace:

"Oh shit!"

A powerful member of the Zhang family seemed to be unable to bear it anymore, and said angrily:

"This bastard Chen family brat is really not a son of man!"

"What does he think of us? A servant who will come and go when he is called? He can ask for whatever he wants?"

"I have worked hard for 3000 years before I have this supernatural power. Could it be that it is for a little ghost in the spirit realm to treat him like a dog?"

Another powerful member of the Zhang family glanced at him and said sarcastically:

"Third brother, you are swearing fiercely, but you haven't forgotten to block the surroundings secretly, are you still afraid of being heard?"

"In that case, what are you pretending to be here?"

"We, Mrs. Zhang, can't beat others, so we should obey orders honestly..."

"you!"

That mighty man glared at his fellow clan immediately, as if he was extremely angry.

"okay!"

Zhang Hechu yelled loudly, his eyes swept over many high-ranking members of the Zhang family, and his tone was heavy:

"Stop arguing about it."

"Then Chen Shaojun is the venerable envoy, not to mention that there is an elder from the Chen family who is escorting him."

"We Mrs. Zhang, what are we going to use to defy him? Take your life and mine?"

As he spoke, he frowned slightly and sighed:

"You go down to make arrangements first, just follow what he said first, and if there are any opinions in the clan, try to suppress them first."

Hear his words:

A powerful member of the Zhang family subconsciously asked:

"Third Uncle, what about you?"

Zhang Hechu shook his head and said in a low voice:

"I have to go see the old lady and tell her what happened here..."

…………

In Chaoyang Palace.

After Zhang Hechu and others left, Wu Su'e smiled and said:

"Qingyu, looking at your appearance just now, you are really majestic."

"These people are all powerful and powerful people who are above all living beings, but they dare not breathe in front of you."

Hearing this, Chen Qingyu shook his head and said:

"The fox is just pretending to be the tiger."

"What they fear is my identity, not myself."

As he spoke, he pondered for a moment, revealing a thoughtful expression:

"Just now, I deliberately used a domineering posture to provoke them and try their true thoughts."

"But now it seems... Either they really don't know; or, there is a real problem, and they are all acting."

At this moment:

Chen Guangsheng on the side suddenly opened his mouth and said:

"Although these people can be regarded as high-level members of the Zhang family, they are not the real principals."

"As far as I know, the Zhang family also has an old lady with the highest seniority and the strongest cultivation. She is the granddaughter of the first ancestor of the Zhang family. She is the real master of the Zhang family."

Chapter 209 Signing in at the Taihe Altar

"Old Madam Zhang?"

Chen Qingyu was taken aback when he heard the words:

"That's right, this Yanggu Zhang family is the Nine Emperors' Heavenly Family. It has a great reputation in the southern region, so there should be a real ancestor sitting in it."

"But that Zhang Hechu didn't even mention it..."

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but secretly raised his vigilance.

Looking at it now, Zhang Hechu is respectful to him on the surface, agreeing to any request, but in the end, he is just cooperating as a last resort.

Yanggu Zhang's suspicion has not been reduced by half.

"Um……"

He pondered for a while, recalling the expressions of Zhang Hechu and others just now, there seemed to be a flash of inspiration in his mind, but he couldn't catch it no matter what.

He always felt like he was missing something.

After thinking for a while, he shook his head, temporarily put aside his various thoughts, let out a breath of foul air, stood up from the main seat, and said:
