Chapter 562: Xiao Zhenrong is forced to reveal his conspiracy (4)
"Are you from the Golden Sword Sect?" Chu Xiaomu asked. Although he and Jinglan had already learned about it from Yuan Gang, they still couldn't believe their ears when they heard Xiao Zhenrong say it himself.
"That's right. Counting... counting this year, I have been in the Golden Sword Sect for five and a half years."
"Then what is your purpose in Bicheng?!"
"I... I am only following orders and lurking in the Green City Army. The specific purpose will not be informed until the action is taken."
Chu Xiaomu and Jinglan also thought it was very reasonable. If they told their purpose early, if the news leaked out, all their efforts would be wasted. From this point of view, the Golden Sword Sect was indeed a very scary sect.
Chu Xiaomu asked again: "Who notified you?"
"The Golden Sword Sect always sends orders via secret letters. I don't know who wrote the secret letters."
"In short, the Golden Blade and the Black Sword are definitely involved in this matter, right?"
Xiao Zhenrong did not answer.
"Is the masked man who plotted against the general the one with the golden sword and black knife?!" Chu Xiaomu finally asked the biggest question in his mind.
Xiao Zhenrong still didn't answer.
Chu Xiaomu snorted and said, "What benefits did they give you to make you, the deputy commander of the Nanding Army, betray the general and Bicheng?!"
"They promised to give me 10,000 gold shell coins after the task was completed, and also let me be a silver lieutenant in Jinyang City."
"You are so vain and shameless!"
"I am vain? Chu Xiaomu, you underestimate me too much. In fact, I want the supreme spiritual power that everyone in this world wants! I want others to be afraid of me and admire me!"
"Isn't this just vanity?"
"Whatever you say! Bi Ye's ability is not that great, but with this Dragon Spine Sword, he was able to become the number one spiritual king of Cang Mu Country and a great hero admired by everyone. I... I don't accept it! If he can do it, why can't I?!"
Chu Xiaomu thought that the general's ability was not earned by the Dragon Spine Sword alone. If you saw his crazy state, you would be scared on the spot. Even if you had a hundred Xiao Zhenrongs, they would not be able to beat him. But the most admirable thing about the general is not his extremely deep and strong Force spiritual power, but that he has the people of the world in his heart. Even if you, Xiao Zhenrong, have such great ability, you can't be compared with him.
Chu Xiaomu pouted and said, "Even if you have the ability of a great general, I'm afraid you're not a great hero, but a great villain, a great demon!"
Xiao Zhenrong looked quite unconvinced, but was afraid that Chu Xiaomu would torture him further, so he did not dare to argue.
Chu Xiaomu asked again: "Xiao Zhenrong, do you know how many people like you the Golden Sword Sect has planted in Bicheng?"
"Besides me, there is also a close guard beside Zhou Bo. However, the most he can do is small things like tipping off others, and he can't do anything big. I am enough to steal the Dragon Back Sword, and so many people are not needed." Yuan Gang was one of the close guards beside Zhou Bo. He used the alias Yuan Fu at the time, and Xiao Zhenrong did not lie.
"What's the matter with your Golden Sword Sect colluding with the Claw Clan?"
"The Flame Claw Spirit King has long been plotting to deal with Bi Ye. It is said that this is to avenge the defeat at the hands of Bi Ye more than two hundred years ago. They sent people to Bi City to gather information, and I found out by accident. Although their intentions are different from ours, they are targeting the same person, so it is natural that we hit it off."
"Last summer in Bicheng, Yan Zhua invited the three clans of the Fang Clan to deal with the general. Why didn't you, the Golden Sword Clan, take action?"
"Because... because we didn't expect the general to be so powerful." After a pause, he continued, "After this, we understand that the general relied on the Dragon Spine Sword to defeat the Great Spirit King of the Red Sand Country and the three Ya Tribe monsters by himself. If he was unarmed, he would not be able to defeat them!"
"So you came up with the plan to steal the Dragon Spine Sword."
"Unfortunately, since I am not a member of the Central Army of Bicheng and am not very close to Biye, I cannot normally come into contact with him and have never had the opportunity to take action."
"So you killed Zhou Zhongjun so that you could become the Zhongjun of the Nanding Army and have the opportunity to get close to the general and steal the Dragon Spine Sword?!"
Jinglan turned around suddenly and glared at Xiao Zhenrong fiercely, her eyes looking like fire was about to burst out.
Xiao Zhenrong sighed and said, "How could I not know that General Zhou treated me well? But if he hadn't died, not only would it be difficult to accomplish my great mission, but I would also always be a deputy general of the Nanding Army."
"How did you kill Zhou Zhongjun?!" Chu Xiaomu said sternly.
"Yes... I led Zhou Zhongjun in... into the encirclement of the Red Soldiers..." He looked up at Jinglan's expression and explained hastily, "But... but at that time Zhou Zhongjun had already made up his mind to die. Even if I... even if I didn't lead him in, he... he wouldn't have survived."
Jinglan said angrily: "Xiao Zhenrong, you are talking nonsense!" She pulled out the Qiu Ning sword hanging at her waist with a bang. The sword light flashed and the aura was compelling.
Xiao Zhenrong said anxiously, "This is absolutely true. I... I am not talking nonsense. Jinglan, your father... your father's character, don't you know it?"
Jinglan knew that her father had a tough temper and was extremely loyal to the general and Bicheng. Humu Pass was breached twice in succession and the Nanding Army suffered heavy losses. For a man who cared about his reputation, it was very likely that he wanted to die in the battle against the Saudis. What Xiao Zhenrong said was also true.
She didn't know what to do for a moment, and the tears in her eyes rolled down like beads from a broken string.
Seeing that she was sad, Chu Xiaomu wanted to hug her in his arms, but after all, he didn't dare to be so abrupt in front of Xiao Zhenrong.
Chu Xiaomu said angrily: "Even if Zhou Zhongjun had already made up his mind to die, as the deputy Zhongjun, you shouldn't have deliberately led him into the encirclement of the Red Soldiers!"
Xiao Zhenrong did not answer. He really didn't know how to argue for this sentence.
Chu Xiaomu then asked, "You, the Golden Sword Sect, are so deliberate in your plan to deal with the general. It is impossible that it is for no reason. The masked master succeeded in ambushing the general and asked him to hand over something. What was that?!"
Xiao Zhenrong said: "I... I was not there at the time, and I don't know what you are talking about."
Chu Xiaomu put more strength on his hands, forcing Xiao Zhenrong to gasp for breath again, and shouted: "If you don't tell me, I can't let you go!"
Xiao Zhenrong begged for mercy loudly, squeezing out the few remaining breaths in his throat: "Xiao Mu...you...you forgive me...they...they...didn't let me know..."
Chu Xiaomu thought about it and it made sense. The thing on the general's body must be very valuable, as both Yan Claw, the Claw Clan's Spirit King, and the Golden Sword Clan, the largest sect in Cangmu Country, wanted to get it. How could they let a small character like you, Xiao Zhenrong, know about it?
Chu Xiaomu was worried that Xiao Zhenrong would not be able to hold on and die, so he tortured him a little and then withdrew some of his Force.
