685: Chapter 685 Don’t Let Them Interfere
"Girl, I have a feeling they might not be Jiang Ziya's people," Zhang Jue said.
"Dad, don't let them fool you. Jiang Ziya is full of tricks; we can't fall for his schemes."
"No, I actually think the person who told us Jiang Ziya's whereabouts is the one trying to fool us," Zhang Jue slowly shook his head.
"Did you discover something?"
"The people who interrogated me were not Jiang Ziya's people."
"Not? How is that possible? Did you make a mistake?"
"No."
"I'm going to find them!"
She tried to get up, but she had no strength in her body and couldn't move.
"Girl, let's deal with the current trouble first. We've probably been declared wanted by the base, so we must find a way to leave first."
"Leave? That's letting them off too easily!"
"Where there's life, there's hope," Zhang Jue appeased her.
Just then, someone outside shouted, "Everyone inside, listen up! You are surrounded. Please put down your weapons immediately and come out!"
The Special Operations Team and Security Team had arrived.
"Oh no, we've been discovered," Zhang Jue exclaimed.
"Dad, what do we do now?"
"Do as they say. Put down your weapons and surrender," Zhang Jue said after thinking for a moment.
"Dad, what if they..."
"The base is not like the outside; we have nowhere to hide. Don't worry, if they are not allied with Jiang Ziya, then surrendering is the only way to prevent the situation from becoming complicated." Zhang Jue gave her a reassuring look.
"Alright!"
Twenty-odd people dropped their weapons and walked out of the shop one by one.
"Men, take them all down!" the Security Captain shouted.
"Wait, just hand them over to us," the Special Operations Team immediately interjected.
These Security Guards were very unreliable; it was better not to let them interfere.
"Alright, alright!" the Security Captain readily agreed.
"Listen up, everyone! Line up and get on the vehicle. If anyone tries to escape again, there will be no mercy!" the Special Operations Team shouted loudly.
Zhang Jue looked at the people in front of him, who were wearing the same armor as the person who defeated him, which meant they were definitely not Jiang Ziya's people.
"Everyone, listen. Do as this officer instructs," Zhang Jue reminded them.
A group of over 20 people got into the transport vehicle and flew towards the airport.
One hour later, the group was escorted to Batuo City.
"Officer, where is this?" Zhang Jue asked.
"Batuo City."
"Batuo City? Batuo City of the Ulan Neutral Zone?" Zhang Jue asked.
"That's right."
"Why did you bring us here?" Zhang Jue continued to ask.
"Your question will be answered soon. Follow me."
The Special Operations Team led him into the interrogation room.
Soon, the large screen lit up.
Zhang Jue looked at the screen.
"Hello, I am Oriental Chen."
His name was probably known to everyone now, so there was no need for a detailed introduction.
"You are Oriental Chen? How can I believe that?" Zhang Jue was a bit scared now.
Truth and falsehood, he was a bit confused.
"How do you want me to prove it?" Oriental Chen asked with a smile.
Zhang Jue thought for a long time but couldn't answer.
Anything could be faked. He had never seen the real Oriental Chen, so he couldn't judge at all.
"Alright, I can tell you a little secret: the base's communication system has a firewall. If I were fake, I wouldn't be able to video call you."
"It seems you really are Oriental Chen. Then why did you bring me to Batuo City?" Zhang Jue nodded, considering it a reasonable explanation.
There was no reason for the base's founder to allow others to impersonate him through the communication system.
"There are some things I want to confirm with you personally," Oriental Chen said.
"What things?"
"You said Jiang Ziya is still alive. What's that about?"
"Oh, it's about that. Yes, he's definitely still alive," Zhang Jue nodded and replied.
"Why are you so sure?"
"If he were dead, Huaguo would have fallen into chaos long ago," Zhang Jue said.
Oriental Chen understood.
This Jiang Ziya must have been suppressing the entire Cultivation world all along.
That's why those Cultivators had been cautious and low-key for the past 3000-plus years.
"That makes a lot of sense, I agree. So why are you looking for him?"
"Revenge!"
"What revenge?"
"Our clan was originally nobility in the Shang Dynasty, and he killed them all. This vendetta, no matter how much time passes, must be avenged." Zhang Jue's eyes showed ferocity.
It sounded like a typical revenge story.
But there were many questionable points in between.
"What makes you think you have the ability to get revenge?"
Since he dared to challenge Hongmeng Academy, he must have some reliance; otherwise, wouldn't he be crazy?
"Someone said he was seriously injured," Zhang Jue replied.
"What's the reason?"
"Jiang Ziya suppressed the entire Cultivation world by himself; no one dared to show their face. But now, the world is full of 9th-order Cultivators, yet he hasn't appeared," Zhang Jue explained.
