Qiming True Monarch cast a deep glance at the other party and said, "Why did you pay attention to this Yu Xinghan?" Master Xuyang was slightly taken aback and said, "I coincidentally saw it." Feeling the piercing gaze from Qiming True Monarch, although Master Xuyang lowered his head and went through several rounds of evasive conversation with his superior, he never revealed the real answer. Qiming True Monarch knew that if no one was supporting Master Xuyang from behind, he would never dare to openly block the Heavenly Sun Divine. But apparently, this subordinate now refuses to disclose the truth to him. "Hehe." Qiming True Monarch smiled and said, "Since you have so much evidence, just go ahead and do your job. As long as you follow the law, the Patrol Team will be your strongest backing." Master Xuyang sensed a hint of coldness in the eyes of Qiming True Monarch’s projection, knowing that a rift had developed between himself and this superior. But he certainly couldn’t reveal the internal matters to the other party; if henceforth they were to part ways, there would be nothing he could do about it. However, just as a hint of hesitation arose in Master Xuyang’s heart, he quickly suppressed it. He thought to himself, "No matter who is supporting me from behind, in the end, what I’m going to catch today is a person infected with the Shuangxiu Virus, the entire process is lawful and compliant, what’s the problem?" "It’s obviously for the sake of ridding the school of harm, but due to the conflict of interests among the higher-ups, it’s become so cautious and fearful." "It’s truly difficult to get anything done in this world." Every time he thought of such matters, Master Xuyang could only sigh in his heart. And in his eyes, Qiming True Monarch, standing before him, was someone who understood this path profoundly, forever cautious and restrained in his actions. Master Xuyang figured that even if he followed under such leadership for another hundred years, nothing would change. So, since it has come to this, they might as well part ways. "You’re a Nascent Soul, you’ve already lived enough lifetimes." "But I’m still young, I cannot stop at the Golden Core." Thinking so, he resolved once again that as long as the Shuangxiu Virus was detected on Yu Xinghan, he would immediately lock down the construction site for a thorough search. Then he would promptly apply to test and inquire about Zhang Yu as well... "As long as we reach this step..." Looking at a certain name in his contacts, Master Xuyang took a deep breath and continued escorting Yu Xinghan to the Patrol Team’s testing site. Meanwhile, Qiming True Monarch, after ending his call with Master Xuyang, immediately decided to contact the president of Wanfa University—the Heavenly Calculation God Monarch. As the head of the fourth division of the Patrol Team, Qiming True Monarch was responsible for monitoring the Demonic Cult and had always had the authority to communicate directly with the Heavenly Calculation God Monarch. As a subordinate, he naturally prioritized frequent reporting and timely communication with his leaders. Especially since, in his view, Master Xuyang’s actions this time were definitely being directed by someone. "Who exactly wants to go against Zhang Yu? Against the Magnetic Pole?" As for simply catching Dual Rest Cultists? To Qiming True Monarch, that seemed impossible. In his eyes, an old Nascent Soul with experience, duties ordained by heaven, lawfulness, and purging the Demonic Cult... in the end, it was all a matter of interest conflicts. "Be it Wanfa University, large corporations, or the Heavenly Court—in the end, aren’t they merely setups by the Immortals to allocate profits?" Qiming True Monarch thought to himself: "Where are there so many Demonic Cult followers, aren’t they just the higher-ups fighting amongst themselves?" He must communicate with the Heavenly Calculation God Monarch promptly, just to figure out who is clashing with whom this time, and stay aligned with the president’s stance. "Nascent Soul is already enough." As an old Nascent Soul, Qiming True Monarch was content with his current realm; as for Divinity Transformation... he had long since given up on such dreams. Yun Yuqing led the group hurriedly back to University City, and upon arrival, they rushed to the Patrol Team’s testing site. Seeing Master Xuyang sitting outside the testing room, Yun Yuqing quickly approached and asked, "Captain, how is it?" Having the Golden Core Realm strength, aside from projecting to escort Yu Xinghan, Master Xuyang’s true self had also arrived earlier than Yun Yuqing. However, Master Xuyang said quietly at this moment, "Waiting for the results." Hearing these words, a trace of doubt appeared on Yun Yuqing’s face, thinking: "Does it take this long for testing?" Yun Yuqing thought, with the other party’s projection descent, he personally escorted Yu Xinghan, so they should have known the results already. Just as she was puzzled, a staff member approached Master Xuyang and said, "The results are out." Master Xuyang and Yun Yuqing turned sharply towards the person, and the staff member said, "No signs of the Shuangxiu Virus were detected on the suspect." Hearing this, Master Xuyang felt as if a heavy hammer struck his chest. Unwilling to accept, he asked, "Are you sure? Is there any possibility of a testing error? Or something peculiar about Yu Xinghan?" The staff member replied impatiently, "We’ve already conducted the third round of testing as per your request. If you’re still not satisfied, take him elsewhere." Yun Yuqing’s face looked grim as she said, "Captain, how could this happen?" Only then did Yun Yuqing understand, it wasn’t that the detection time was too long, but rather the captain had ordered the check three times. Master Xuyang walked toward the interrogation room with a somber expression, intending to question the other party personally. He looked at Yu Xinghan, who appeared calm, and said coldly, "Do you often visit the Civil Engineering Department’s construction sites?" Yu Xinghan replied casually, "I’m a student of the Civil Engineering Department, isn’t it quite normal for me to visit the sites?" As he spoke, various past experiences flashed through Yu Xinghan’s mind. Initially, he thought he had contracted the Dual Rest virus and would surely have to visit the Rest and Detoxification Center. Unexpectedly, Zhang Yu came to the construction site, engaging in a magical duel with Xiang Shan while guiding him to an underground space in the wilderness. Zhang Yu seemed to have excavated this underground space before heading to the construction site and had made some arrangements there. After the site inspection was completed, Zhang Yu rushed to this location. "Yu Xinghan, can I trust you?" Hearing Zhang Yu’s words, Yu Xinghan smiled and said, "Zhang Yu, you’re the person I trust the most." "To be honest, if my first gender was female, I would have already offered myself for you to cultivate. Who knows, I might be pregnant by now." Zhang Yu looked at Yu Xinghan seriously and said, "First you contracted a virus, then Xiang Shan seized the opportunity to act, followed by the Patrol Team’s inspection, obviously someone has set their sights on you." "They are targeting you, but it’s not just for you; it’s to deal with me and even the Magnetic Pole True Monarch behind me." "But I have no time to waste being taken by them." Yu Xinghan took a deep breath and said, "What do you need me to do?" Realizing that being caught up in such a struggle would likely have dire consequences, Yu Xinghan was even prepared to become a Soul Cultivator at this moment. However, even as a Soul Cultivator, he believed as long as Zhang Yu didn’t fall, there was still a chance to rise again in the future. Where did this confidence come from... Perhaps from seeing Zhang Yu’s growth along the way? From years of friendship with Zhang Yu? Or from the last life-and-death battle against the Demon Sect’s Golden Core with Zhang Yu? Because they were already tied together? ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩·𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢·𝔫𝔢𝔱 Honestly, Yu Xinghan himself wasn’t sure of the specific details of this confidence. He only felt that at this moment, having someone he could completely trust felt quite nice. He recalled the words Master Xinghuo once said and thought to himself, "Old guy... Is this what you meant by the feeling of cherishing old ties?" Zhang Yu said, "Remove all the Magic Remains and disconnect from the network. What happens next must not be known to anyone." As he spoke, Zhang Yu had already taken out one of his own eye remnants. Yu Xinghan smiled slightly and said, "I have a lot of Magic Remains. Why don’t you give me a hand?" In no time, Yu Xinghan’s hands and feet were already disassembled. When Zhang Yu’s fingers touched his eye remnants, he nodded to Zhang Yu: "Go ahead." The next moment, as the two eye remnants were removed, Yu Xinghan felt himself plunged into complete darkness, losing perception of everything around him. Besides, having had his hands and legs removed, Yu Xinghan’s ability to interact with the outside world dropped to its lowest at that moment. In this bottomless darkness, Yu Xinghan felt himself in an unprecedented state of weakness, only able to hear Zhang Yu’s pacing, seemingly preparing something. However, soon the third eye in his mind activated, allowing him to vaguely see the surroundings. Moments later, a mysterious force traversed his body, causing the Spirit Root in his mind to tremble violently. Simultaneously, Zhang Yu’s voice came close to his ear, slowly saying, "Yu Xinghan, what I’m about to say relates to the life and death of both of us. Apart from you and me, no one else can know." Listening to the information about the Evil God and the rituals, Yu Xinghan’s eyes widened, his heart seemingly igniting with an unprecedented heat. Soon after, the third eye in his mind grew again, appearing to break through its limits and reach a kind of sublimation. "Zhang Yu, from today on, we either live together or die together." At this very moment in the interrogation room, Yu Xinghan looked at the Golden Core True Man before him. Under the gaze of his third eye, he could vaguely see the mana flow and Spiritual Mechanism fluctuations within the man, but perhaps due to the difference in realms, it was too blurry, like seeing flowers through mist. On the contrary, Yun Yuqing beside him, also in the Foundation Establishment Realm, seemed to have no secrets under his third eye’s gaze. Not only could he see all the mana flowing throughout her body, but Yu Xinghan even felt that just by watching, he could learn the Breathing Technique she was using, and if he continued to watch, he could enhance the level of this Breathing Technique. Noticing Yu Xinghan staring at her all the time, Yun Yuqing said coldly, "Yu Xinghan, we’ve already gathered a lot of tangible evidence, you’d better honestly address your issues." Yu Xinghan said, "I don’t know a thing about what you’re talking about. I want to contact Director Gao."
