I only have passive skills, so I'm extremely cautious

Lei Lichen got out of the car with a gloomy expression. As the eldest son of Lei, he could not bear the humiliation of being eliminated in the first round.

So after taking a short rest at the competition office, he returned home with his second uncle Lei Shaotian.

"Um?"

Lei Shaotian grabbed Lei Lichen and looked around cautiously.

At this time, Lei Lichen also felt something, his eyes changed drastically, he quickly rushed up the mountain and pushed open the door of the compound.

The strong and pungent smell of blood penetrated his nostrils. He shook his body in disbelief and ran into the backyard trembling.

When he saw the housekeeper's body separated, he was completely panicked.

"Second uncle, who is it? Who is so bold!"

Lei Lichen knelt in front of Lei Shaoyu and growled with distorted features.

Lei Shaoyu was silent, with thoughts flowing in his eyes. He turned around and ordered his subordinates, "This matter cannot be hidden. Report it to the empire immediately and collect all nearby surveillance equipment!"

"Brother, go west. I will be in charge of the family for the time being. Everyone, please take action!"

He patted Lei Lichen on the shoulder, "Li Chen, don't mess up!"

"Okay, Second Uncle." Although he said this, Lei Lichen still blew up a wall with one punch, venting the anger and sadness in his heart.

There was a commotion from behind with noises and cries.

"What's going on!" Lei Lichen yelled wildly, and out-of-control lightning arcs appeared all over his body, "Just be quiet!"

"yes……"

"It's Chen..."

"It's Chen Zhong!"

"It was Chen Zhong who attacked us!"

The noise spread from far to near, and several members of the Lei family were crying and shouting.

Hearing this name, Lei Lichen got goosebumps all over his body and fell to the floor. He immediately cursed, "Are you blind? Chen Zhong?"

"It can't be wrong! There were two people who attacked at that time. The woman called the man Chen Zhong. We all heard it, and the man looked very similar to Chen Zhong!"

Bang!

At this time, the people from the empire came.

It is of course the job of the tribunal to deal with these matters. When they learned that such a serious case had occurred at the foot of the palace, fifty or sixty people rushed in, sealed off the entire garden, surveyed the scene, and analyzed the residual spiritual power.

The leaders are Yu Lingli and the director's apprentice - Peng Yu!

When she saw the body of Lei Shaoyu at the ninth level of the Soul Tempering Realm, Yu Lingli's expression did not change. Chen Zhong did not tell him in detail about this matter, but he probably knew something about it.

I just don't know the specific reason why Chen Zhong annihilated the Lei family, but Yu Lingli will not disobey Chen Zhong because of this. After all, the benefits he received from Chen Zhong are really irresistible.

In addition, the Lei family and the Yan family have been too high-profile in recent years, and they have a bit of a reputation for being too successful. The emperor himself has plans to crack down on them.

Besides, Chen Zhong was so meticulous in his actions, how could he leave any trace of evidence at the scene?

When the tribunal checked several times but found nothing, everyone in the Lei family yelled wildly, "It's Chen Zhong! It's that little bastard from Tianyan Academy!"

Chen Zhong, little bastard.

As soon as these two words appeared, Lei Shaotian's eyes became more stern. As a loyal servant of his master, he would not allow anyone to speak rudely.

However, due to the tasks assigned by Chen Zhong, he had no choice but to agree.

"Indeed, they all said that this person is the killer." Lei Shaotian has become the backbone of the Lei family, so he must come forward.

Of course, this is also the play that Chen Zhong asked him to play, to help him control the Lei family. This is also the reason why Chen Zhong does not eradicate the roots. As long as the Lei family still has Lei Shaotian, it will not collapse in the short term.

"Block the news and don't let the media know about it, otherwise it will easily cause panic during this period." Peng Yu ordered his men.

"Chen Zhong? A sophomore?"

Yu Lingli muttered, his tone was incredible and a little ridiculous.

"Yes, I was very confused at first." Lei Shaotian said sadly, "The key kid...should be at the Qiange Ancient Battlefield now, right?"

Good guy, these two are singing a double act.

Lei Lichen also fell into silence. Although he also thought about Chen Zhong, he knew better than everyone present that Chen Zhong was indeed at the ancient battlefield.

Could it be...he was also eliminated?

And he arrived at the imperial capital first and carried out an assassination?

call--

Several figures flew in the sky, namely Xu Xiaodao, Yang Fu, and Yu Yongren.

"Where has Lei Shaoyu gone?"

Yang Fu looked shocked, angry, and a little shocked. He didn't know who had the courage to kill them right in front of their eyes.

"Dead." Yu Lingli shrugged.

Xu Xiaodao was naturally as calm as ever. To him, it didn't matter whether the people in the imperial capital died.

His Majesty the Emperor's face was expressionless, with thoughts swirling in his eyes. He touched the empty air, "There is a breath of ice... and... hmm? A very strange death aura? There is another person, huh? Why can't I catch him? Spiritual power?"

The more he understood, the more surprised Yu Yongren became. He looked at the two deans and asked, "What do you think?"

"I don't have any opinion. The assassin's sophistication is beyond my reach." Xu Xiaodao sighed from the bottom of his heart.

Yang Fu took a deep breath, "Ice Spiritual Power should be at the early stage of the Grandmaster Realm. Those dead auras are mostly from people with dark attributes or practicing magic arts. What makes me palpitate the most is the trace of aura that seems to be invisible, ethereal but yet... It’s full of trembling oppression!”

Yu Yongren nodded, "The Imperial Master is right. This breath of nothingness is the real mastermind. I am very surprised that two big masters at the master level came to kill everyone in the Lei family and did not silence them. What is their goal?"

"Chen Zhong!!!"

"It's Chen Zhong!!!"

Behind, several mad Lei family members struggled and shouted.

"Chen Zhong?"

The three looked at each other, each with their own thoughts.

Xu Xiaodao was thoughtful. If this matter was related to Mr. Chen... then should he protect him?

Besides, Chen Zhong was still a student of his academy.

"That little master of Shangshan Sect?" Yu Yongren actually remembered Chen Zhong.

"It's him! It's him!" the crazy clan member roared.

"Ridiculous!" Yang Fu sneered.

Yu Lingli said, "It shouldn't be him. Let's not talk about whether a teenager has the strength of a grandmaster... How could he call his name directly for such a well-planned and well-planned action? Isn't this a blatant exposure of identity? It's possible to say it's a frame-up."

Wonderful!

No one could have thought that several people present had surrendered to Chen Zhong and were all helping to speak cleverly!

"Forget it, let's ask someone to gather the drones to the ancient battlefield and see!" Yu Yongren waved his hand and said.

While waiting, Yu Yongren strolled in the courtyard of the Lei family, his face calm and his eyes cold.

This situation undoubtedly challenged the authority of the royal family. Even if he wanted to deal with the Lei family and the Yan family, he could only do it himself.

After a while, things were so confusing. Yu Yongren couldn't help but drag the suspects to the Divine Empire and the White Tower Federation.

It seems that they have been too gentle recently. It's time to knock them down and give them a warning!

"Your Majesty, we found him." Yang Fu enlarged a tablet, and the camera of the drone focused on one direction.

In the middle of the picture, Chen Zhong sat cross-legged, Yuan Wuzha guarded, and the students gathered around also guaranteed the authenticity of the live video.

"He has been there since a few hours ago without moving. He should be healing," explained a member of the Arbitration Institute, "If there is no other situation, then what happened here cannot be done by Chen Zhong."

Everyone was silent, and the Lei family members stopped making a fuss, stunned and frozen in place.

"Ridiculous!" Yu Yongren was a little annoyed, "Don't waste time here."

Turning around, he faced the Lei family members, "Everyone, I will investigate this matter thoroughly and give an explanation to the Lei family. The imperial capital will also protect your safety throughout the process and provide the greatest help."

After saying that, he jumped into the sky and flew away.

After such a big event, as the head of a country, he certainly couldn't just sit there and wait. He had his own intelligence network. Next, he would focus on investigating the other two empires and several super forces, which were the most suspicious.

In this way, Chen Zhong was excluded from this incident. After all, even Lei Lichen thought it couldn't be him, so who else would take the initiative to suspect?

Not to mention any traces left behind. Once the divine escape was turned on, only white afterimages would be left in the surveillance, and the signal jammer was always carried with him.

For safety, Yang Qin had left the imperial capital and went to hide in the deep mountains and forests.

In such a large empire, it is as difficult as ascending to heaven to find a master who is obsessed with hide-and-seek.

For a time, the Chiyan Empire was in turmoil, and in the world invisible to ordinary people, undercurrents were surging.

Many departments began to take action, and the highly confidential special investigation team was organized and led by Yu Lingli and Peng Yu, and immediately launched the most solemn mission in decades.

An old family in the imperial capital was slaughtered at the feet of countless strong men. It was undoubtedly a slap in the face of Chiyan, and a heavy slap.

Moreover, it was difficult to hide this matter. In order to prevent the clan members from losing their composure, the Lei family also announced that Lei Shaotian would be the new patriarch.

This just happened to suit Chen Zhong. One of his goals was to let Lei Shaotian control the Lei family and provide a base for him to do things in the imperial capital.

Chen Zhong did not intend to overthrow the royal family, but just planted some spies to keep an eye on the movements of the imperial capital at any time. Everything was for his own safety. Chen Zhong could swear on his conscience that he had no second thoughts!

Qian Ge Ancient Battlefield

"What bad intentions could I have?" Chen Zhong, the clone, slowly opened his eyes and muttered.

"What did you say, junior brother?" Yuan Wusha asked from the side.

"It's okay. I said my injury has almost healed." Chen Zhong smiled, a genuine smile.

The ancient battlefield was still dim and dark, shrouded in despair and silence.

Most of the students around had finished their rest and gradually stood up. Hostility was spreading again between different colleges, and some people even fought.

The common enemy was gone, and the enemies were around!

Soon, the people of Tianyan College gathered behind Yuan Wusha, looking at the Imperial College and the Four-Party United College vigilantly.

As for other colleges, they would not take the initiative to provoke these three giants.

The strongest students of some colleges were only at the first level of Xiaocheng Realm, how dare they?

The atmosphere gradually became solemn, and it was necessary for someone to stand up.

Yuan Wusha was unwilling to be left behind, and was the first to step forward.

"What? How about a fight? It's not appropriate for so many people to enter the second round."

"What Brother Yuan said is exactly what I want." Yu Qixuan laughed loudly.

Zheng Haichuan, who was taciturn, didn't say anything. He directly pulled out his big knife and swung it heavily on the ground, leaving a gully more than ten meters long.

Boom!

This sound directly paused the melee in other colleges.

They all retreated in horror, knowing that a big battle was about to happen.

"Thunderbolt!"

Yuan Wusha howled, his chest heaving violently, and the expanding thunder quickly spread.

"Jade Emperor Hand!"

Yu Qixuan pushed out his palms in a normal way, and two rotating Dao seals were revealed.

Zheng Haichuan slashed his broadsword diagonally, and the two spiritual powers of water and earth intertwined and burst out.

Under the eyes of the crowd, three different spiritual powers collided with each other. After less than a second of silence, there was an extremely terrifying explosion.

The chaotic spiritual power turbulence rushed straight to the sky, forming a colorful mushroom cloud, which shattered the black cloud a little, revealing a little bit of sunlight.

But the sunlight soon disappeared, and the black cloud occupied it again.

And the ground, more than fifty meters deep, was still dark black stone below.

The spiritual power wave lifted everyone dozens of meters away and dispersed.

In the center, the three people were already fighting together. It was a peak duel of the ninth level of the small success realm. Chen Zhong could see that the three people were enjoying it and enjoying it very much.

"Student Chen Zhong, would you like to make friends?"

At this time, Sima Xiao walked over with a smile.

"Senior, you are too kind," Chen Zhong replied, "As long as you don't despise me, I can be your friend."

Sima Xiao narrowed his eyes and raised his mouth, "Since we are friends, how about a competition between friends?"

"Oh? Senior, you are embarrassing me. There is such a big gap between us." Chen Zhong was neither humble nor arrogant.

A pure jade spirit carving pen slipped out of Sima Xiao's sleeve, "I will naturally not take advantage of you. Let's discuss the way of spirit formation."

Chen Zhong pondered, "Okay, let's stop here."

Many students noticed the two people's movements, and there was a lot of discussion at the Imperial College. They were all confused as to why Sima Xiao was talking so happily with a Blood Surge Realm.

Then, they saw the two people take out spirit carving pens and fight against each other in a certain range.

"What, that Chen Zhong actually competed with Sima Xiao in spiritual formation!"

"You know, Sima Xiao has always been very mysterious, but I didn't expect that he would..."

"I always thought that Senior Sima Xiao would not take action, but what is so special about this Chen Zhong? Just relying on a Shangshan brand?"

Hearing the doubts from the Imperial College, the students of Tianyan College were unhappy and started to fight back without hesitation.

But they didn't use their mouths to show off their verbal skills, but used fists and feet without thinking!

The melee spread completely.

The sky and the earth were dark and the earth was shaking nearby. The continuous outbreak of chaotic spiritual power caused the ancient demons to be invisible.

"Resolve!" Chen Zhong stabbed down and easily exploded Sima Xiao's killing formation.

Sima Xiao kept smiling, forming seals with his palms, and a third-grade imprisonment formation flew in from the back, entangled Chen Zhong's legs.

Chen Zhong remained calm and played the same spiritual seal.

Swish!

Rune chains emerged from the ground under Sima Xiao's feet, tied his hands and prevented him from forming seals.

It wasn't over yet, rune chains appeared one after another around him, tying up the helpless Sima Xiao like a big dumpling.

For fairness, Sima Xiao took the initiative to lower his level to the third-grade spirit formation, and the two stipulated that they could only use some common spirit formations.

"I am convinced by my junior brother's attainments in spirit formations."

Sima Xiao smiled casually, not caring about the so-called embarrassment or winning or losing.

"If we were at the same level, your spirit formation would probably be difficult for even Yan Sui to resist!"

Sima Xiao thought about it and praised again.

"Senior, you are too kind." Chen Zhong saluted with his fists.

Sima Xiao yawned, then took out his identity jade card and crushed it lightly.

"It's gone, it's a great success to meet my junior brother and learn from you."

Chen Zhong was stunned, and countless plots in his mind rose.

Judging from Sima Xiao's tone, it seems like there's something else behind his words?
