Chapter 150 The First Signs of Doubt

Upon hearing this,

Zhao Xuan on the other end of the phone jumped to his feet.

The tone was solemn:

"It means they might not be themselves."

Then he continued:

"You just said that the Zhang family was among them?"

Zhou Nanbei nodded slightly.

"Yes, Grandpa Zhao, that Zhang family member's name is Zhang Haiyuan."

I don't know about the others.

The old Taoist priest was also killed by the nuclear bomb. Grandpa Zhao, you'd better figure out a way to investigate.

Since ancient times,

Those who possess superhuman strength, or rather, those who wield such power, are generally those who wield wealth, power, or lust.

Flowing among the three,

Being lustful is fine, and being greedy for money is barely acceptable.

But power…

Zhou Nanbei shut his mouth at this point.

Zhao Xuan naturally knew this as well.

Zhou Nanbei's implication.

He paused for a moment and said, "Yes, if it's really as you guessed, then we don't even have a way to test it now."

Without anyone noticing,

Who could have imagined that the people standing before us weren't them?

Then he said:

"Is there anything else?"

If not, the old man will be busy with something else. You've given him a real problem.

Zhou Nanbei paused for a moment and asked:

"Um, Grandpa Zhao,"

One last question, I mean, hypothetically...

Suppose that one...

Is it possible?

Upon hearing this, Zhao Xuan chuckled lightly: "Haha, I'm not sure about the others, but they definitely won't."

Don't worry.

He then explained, "It's hard to say over the phone."

But the old man tells you,

The central area is protected by a magical array and the nation's destiny; anyone attempting to harm those top figures...

That's simply wishful thinking.

Hearing this, Zhou Nanbei breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."

Grandpa Zhao, you go ahead with your work.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Xuan hung up the phone. Zhou Nanbei handed the phone to Fatty Wang and then fell into thought.

suddenly,

Sheng Shengman asked slowly, "Xiao Nanbei, are you worried about the Green Tomb?"

Zhou Nanbei's mind returned to normal.

He turned to look at Sheng Sheng and slowly shook his head: "I am worried about the green grave, but after all, it doesn't involve me or the people around me."

I'm not too worried.

What worries me is the Ancient God, and whether the Green Tomb will turn against me later, especially what Sixth Master said before.

It might be related to Zhang Qishan.

With a wave of his hand, he summoned a caravan of camels.

"Let's go, let's head back."

Slowly, the camel was given to the Queen of Jingjue.

He himself rode with Zhou Nanbei.

The camel caravan headed away, while Sheng Sheng Man and Zhou Nanbei talked. Sheng Sheng Man said softly:

"Little Nanbei,

Are you worried about Sister Nanfeng?

Zhou Nanbei nodded slightly: "Yes, in today's world..."

In terms of personal deterrence,

I can say I'm in a league of my own; in terms of power, aside from the top few countries...

As our power grows,

It's undoubtedly in a class of its own, but with great success comes great scrutiny.

Upon hearing this,

He then understood Zhou Nanbei's concerns: "So, Nanbei is worried that Zhang Qishan, through Sister Nanfeng..."

"To scheme against you?"

Zhou Nanbei scoffed upon hearing this: "Haha, Slow Sister,"

What nonsense are you talking about?

If Zhang Qishan really dares to show his face and use Sister Nanfeng to scheme against me, just wait and see if Sixth Master doesn't kill him and that's the end of it.

What I'm worried about is...

Zhang Qishan will remain hidden, secretly plotting against Sister Nanfeng, who will then be caught in the middle.

It seems we'll be surrounded from both sides.

Sheng Sheng Man, upon hearing this, also felt somewhat helpless: "That's true."

Given Nanfeng's personality, Zhang Qishan alone wouldn't be a big deal, after all, Zhang Qishan is just a son-in-law.

But if Sister Nanfeng's great-aunt were still alive...

Then...

Before he finished speaking, Zhou Nanbei naturally understood the meaning behind Sheng Sheng Man's words.

He then shook his head:

"I don't want to think about it anymore. Maybe I'm overthinking it. Besides, there's always a way out. I'm just overthinking things now."

It only creates unnecessary trouble.

Sheng Sheng Man nodded slightly without saying anything, but simply hugged Zhou Nanbei tightly.

At this time, the Queen of Jingjue rode a camel,

Leave the group

Arriving beside Zhou Nanbei and Sheng Sheng Man: "Nanbei,

"I just heard from your men that you know where the Muchen Pearl is?"

Zhou Nanbei glanced at the Queen of Jingjue beside him,

Nodding slightly: "I know, and the next stop..."

If nothing else,

Where we'll go, what about you?

What are your plans after leaving the desert?

The Queen of Jingjue chuckled softly.

"What?

A powerful figure like himself can't even tolerate a mere woman like me?

Is this an attempt to get rid of me?

Upon hearing this, Zhou Nanbei rubbed his forehead in exasperation:

"You ancient people,"

Do you always speak in such a sarcastic and unfriendly tone?

Then he added, "I didn't mean to send you away, Wu Chan."

I just wanted to ask,

If you have nowhere to stay, and given how times have changed, would you be willing to join my cause?

Upon hearing this, the Queen of Jingjue finally smiled:

"At least he said something sensible."

Joining your faction is certainly possible; I have nowhere else to go anyway. But you must promise me...

Once we obtain the Muchen Pearl,

"After you lift the curse on your two subordinates, you must give me the Muchen Pearl."

Zhou Nanbei waved his hand:

"The Muchen Pearl is of little use to me."

Here you go.

But you've agreed to join us, so you can't go back on your word, or I'll blow you up with that thing.

The Queen of Jingjue was initially quite happy, but upon hearing the second half of the sentence...

She couldn't help but glare at Zhou Nanbei.

"What do you take me for?"

How could I, the King, be such a treacherous and disloyal person?

But then again,

How much of that thing is there?

Zhou Nanbei chuckled: "That's not necessarily true. Didn't your ancestor also deceive the snake god?"

As for how many nuclear weapons I have

Then don't worry about it.

It's enough anyway.

Listening to Zhou Nanbei's infuriating words,

Jingjue is also just a feeling.

A fire was rising in my heart.

Fortunately, Sheng Sheng Man suddenly offered a way out: "Wu Chan, aren't your eyes already able to control the imaginary space?"

Why do we still need the Serpent God's Eye?

Upon hearing this, the Queen of Jingjue conveniently stepped down as a way to save face.

He then explained, "The reason I want the Eye of the Serpent God is..."

It's all for the purpose of absorbing its energy.

This will enhance my eyes. If I possess the Serpent God's Eye, I will be able to control time within the imaginary space.

It will be greatly reduced.

And my eyes will also evolve.

Upon hearing this, Sheng Shengman nodded knowingly.

Then they changed the subject to other things: "I see."

Oh, right, Wu Chan.

How much do you know about the green grave, that old Taoist priest?

As soon as this word comes out,

Zhou Nanbei also looked at the Queen of Jingjue with curiosity.

Seeing the gaze that Zhou Nanbei cast at him,

The Queen of Jingjue smiled slightly, her eyes conveying a look that said, "I'm keeping you in suspense, you'd better beg me to tell you."

He looked at Zhou Nanbei.

Zhou Nanbei could naturally see it, and then rolled his eyes at the Queen of Jingjue:

"Please, I'm begging you!"

Upon hearing this, the Queen of Jingjue felt as if she had punched a cotton ball.

No,

Is the world changing that fast?

Have they completely lost all sense of shame?

Seeing the astonishment on the Queen of Jingjue's face, Zhou Nanbei chuckled inwardly: "Wu Chan, one must keep one's word."

I'm begging you.

"Tell me quickly."

The Queen of Jingjue said irritably, "What's the rush?"

Would I, the king, possibly renege on my promise?

Zhou Nanbei was about to speak when Sheng Sheng glanced at the two of them with amusement and interrupted them:

"Hey Xiao Nanbei, Wu Chan, why do you two act like a bickering couple?"

"They can even argue about this?"

He then looked at Wu Chan and said, "I know Wu Chan is the most trustworthy."

Tell me about the green graves.
