Simulation: Starting from Under One Person

In their view, it didn't matter that they had been discovered. Their mission was to attract attention anyway, and they would be more satisfied if Lu Jin and the others focused their attention on them.

Xia He narrowed her eyes slightly, feeling that something was wrong with the current situation. If some people thought that the information she provided was unimportant, that would be normal. But the fact that everyone present thought that the information she provided was unimportant was abnormal.

After all, some people present wouldn't do anything that wouldn't benefit them...

'It seems... the Quanxing sect does indeed have ulterior motives.'

'Moreover, Shen Chong and the others... don't want to tell me.'

Xia He closed her eyes slightly. The reason she didn't share mission information was probably because Shen Chong and the others suspected her.

This shows that the plans that Quanxing is currently undertaking are very important.

'Ugh, this is such a hassle!'

Xia He pondered for a moment, her gaze sweeping over the people present before finally settling on Tu Junfang.

Compared to others, the probability of obtaining information from him is slightly higher.

Thinking this through, Xia He said, "So... you're planning to proceed as originally intended?"

"Of course not!" Shen Chong pushed up his black-rimmed glasses, adopting a polite demeanor. "The plan needs to be revised, with a few minor adjustments to the details."

As he spoke, Shen Chong glanced at Xia He out of the corner of his eye, observing her reaction. However, Xia He remained expressionless and showed no reaction whatsoever.

She noticed Shen Chong's gaze, raised an eyebrow slightly, and urged, "What are you looking at me for? Keep talking!"

Shen Chong casually looked away and continued, "To put it simply... I haven't decided yet."

Halfway through his sentence, Shen Chong helplessly shrugged, "Modifying a plan isn't an easy thing to do, how could it be so easy to come up with such a thing?"

"Contact him by phone." Upon hearing this, Yuan Tao had no intention of staying any longer and immediately turned to leave, with his apprentice, Han Dan'er, following behind him.

"Good luck, Benefactor Shen!" Gao Ning maintained his smile and left with Dou Mei.

Tu Junfang didn't say a word and turned to leave.

Seeing this, Xia He jumped down from the rock and chased after Tu Junfang.

Shen Chong stared intently at Xia He's departing figure, stood there for a while, and then turned and left as well.

He genuinely lacked trust in Xia He, who was able to move freely within Longhu Mountain in her true form.

Xia He's explanation was that she was able to move freely within Longhu Mountain because she pretended to join Biyou Village and announced her departure from Quanxing.

The mention of Biyou Village reminded Shen Chong of his own dark past. He couldn't be sure whether Xia He's joining Biyou Village was genuine or feigned, or whether Fang Rui had caught her red-handed...

If it's the former, then Xia He is within the range of trustworthy individuals; if it's the latter, then Xia He is within the range of untrustworthy individuals.

When things are uncertain, Shen Chong categorizes them all as untrustworthy.

"We need to give Gong Qing a heads-up..."

Thinking this, Shen Chong paused, his expression gradually becoming subtle.

If Xia He has indeed betrayed us, has Gong Qing, who frequently appears before Tian Jinzhong and Zhang Zhiwei, already been exposed?

The probability of yes or no is 50%.

'If Gong Qing's identity has already been exposed, then why did Xia He come to find us?'

Shen Chong seemed to be deep in thought.

If his guess is true, then we need to prepare early, otherwise we won't be able to escape.

As for the initial goal, it is natural to achieve it if possible, and abandon it if it cannot be achieved.

"...Let's contact Gong Qing first and see if his identity has been leaked!"

After thinking it over carefully for a while, Shen Chong made a decision in his heart.

A dozen seconds later, somewhere on the back mountain of Longhu Mountain, inside an ordinary Chinese-style bungalow.

"Ring ring ring..."

A simple cell phone ringtone sounded in the spacious courtyard. Sitting on the steps, Gong Qing, looking bored, lowered his head slightly, reached into his sleeve pocket, took out his cell phone, and looked at the screen. He saw that the caller's contact name was "Shen".

'Shen Chong...'

Gong Qing was puzzled as to why Shen Chong wanted to see him. He lightly tapped the screen with his thumb to answer the call...

"What do you want from me?"

"Has your identity been exposed?"

Shen Chong's overly direct questioning left Gong Qing speechless for a moment. He said, "No, I already knew about Xia He when she first entered Longhu Mountain. I don't know what's going on with her. I've been avoiding her these past few days, and my identity hasn't been exposed yet."

Key intelligence has been obtained in Chapter 168.

As Shen Chong listened to Gong Qing's account, he looked thoughtful.

In short, Gong Qing is currently in a very dangerous situation. If he encounters Xia He, there is a 50% chance that his identity will be exposed.

"This is terrible!"

The thought of how he could avoid hanging up the phone after only a few words with Gong Qing flashed through his mind, and then he began to think about ways to make amends.

After thinking it over for a while, he realized that when Gong Qing's identity was exposed, that would be the moment when Quanxing's true purpose was revealed, and when Quanxing's true purpose was revealed...

Emmm...

That means the opportunity has been missed!

After all... whether it's Zhang Zhiwei, the Celestial Master known as "the best," or Fang Rui, the vice village chief of Biyou Village with a bad temper, they are both quite difficult to deal with.

Not to mention the two of them together, even if it were all the members of the Quanxing...

Thinking of this, Shen Chong's expression froze slightly, and he suddenly had a bold idea.

The number of people gathered this time is over a hundred, and the exact number of several hundred has not been counted. With so many people besieging one person, they should be able to achieve something!

No, there will definitely be gains!

No matter how strong Zhang Zhiwei and Fang Rui are touted to be, they would definitely get injured if they were attacked by hundreds of people.

“It’s worth a try!”

Although he was a little nervous, Shen Chong thought it was worth a try.

As the saying goes, "Don't talk about victory before you talk about defeat," so Shen Chong felt he should think about how to escape if the plan failed.

at the same time……

Gong Qing stared blankly at the black phone screen for a while, then suddenly shivered. His dazed expression returned to normal, and he frowned.

'Shen Chong wouldn't ask about this without a reason; something must have happened!'

'We must find him and get to the bottom of this!'

Feeling a little panicked, Gong Qing immediately left the room and ran to the quiet, deserted mountains and forests, where he made a phone call to Shen Chong.

What did you mean by what you just said?

Without beating around the bush, Gong Qing went straight to the point.

Upon hearing this, Shen Chong briefly explained the situation and then hung up the phone, as he was quite busy thinking about how to revise the plan.

After hearing Shen Chong's explanation, Gong Qing's expression turned quite grim.

Although the various factions in the supernatural society treat Quanxing without regard to rules, if a member of Quanxing announces their withdrawal from Quanxing, they can join other factions or form their own.

Those who can safely leave Quanxing are people who have not committed serious crimes; otherwise, they would not have had the opportunity to leave Quanxing.

First, the 'company' would not let those people go, and second, those people's enemies would not allow it either.

Thinking about it carefully, although Xia He has a notorious reputation that is known throughout the entire supernatural community, she does not seem to have violated any serious laws.

'Oh wow~ Shen Chong's guess is very likely!'

Gong Qing's eye twitched, and he suddenly felt a sense of unease, as if he were being pricked by a thorn in his back.

We need to think of a way to escape!

'But... I've been lying low in Longhu Mountain for so long, and I'm only one step away from uncovering the secret. To give up now is truly unwilling!'

Gong Qing gritted his teeth, pondering if there was a way to achieve the best of both worlds.

Ultimately, Gong Qing made a decision...

"Let's go for it!"

"The key is how to prevent Xia He from finding out, so all I need to do is pretend to be sick and stay in my room for a while... that should be fine... right?"

Unsure of what to do, Gong Qing frowned and thought for a while. Having no better solution, he decided to proceed with his previous plan.

With that in mind, he began to think about what kind of illness he should have.

A bad cold?

Hmm, that seems feasible, let's wait and see!

Did you accidentally break your arm?

The cost is a bit too high, it's not worth it!

Muttering to himself, Gong Qing returned the way he came.

………………

On the other side, after Xia He separated from Shen Chong and the others, she followed Tu Junfang.

After passing through a deserted area, Xia He asked directly, "What is Gong Qing's real purpose in gathering these people?"

Tu Junfang glanced at Xia He, his eyes showing no emotion, and quickly looked away, showing no inclination to answer the question.

After a moment of silence, Xia He repeated the previous question, adding, "Fang Rui asked me to ask this."

Upon hearing this, Tu Junfang paused, then continued walking forward, his calm tone revealing a slight fluctuation: "He and I are business partners, not superiors and subordinates."

"Hmm~ Are you sure?" Xia He didn't quite believe it.

Although Fang Rui didn't tell her the details, she knew some basic information, since she had witnessed it firsthand: a group of people ganged up on one person, only to be killed by that person alone.

Tu Junfang: "…………"

I really want to say firmly, of course!
