"Xiaoping, I've caught a man in black."
Wu Ershou dragged the man in black and then kicked open the door to Chen Ping's room.
"Senior Brother!"
Chen Ping, who was leisurely drinking tea in the room, was startled. His hand holding the teacup trembled, and he spilled the tea all over the floor.
"Senior Brother, when did you get back?"
Chen Ping blew on the spilled tea and used magic to clean it up.
He glanced at Wu Er, who had suddenly barged in, and thought to himself: This senior brother just left yesterday and is back today. He's really in a hurry.
Wu Er didn't reply, but instead threw the man in black he was dragging toward Chen Ping.
Upon seeing the man in black approaching him, Chen Ping took two steps back to avoid being hit.
Wu Er, standing at the door, pointed to the man in black on the ground and said, "I caught a man in black who had sneaked in."
Chen Ping looked at the unconscious man in black and asked, "Senior Brother, where did you catch him?"
"It's right where the Chamber of Commerce is holding people." Wu Er walked into the room and closed the door behind him. "This person is here to kill someone to cover it up. He's here to kill the fake air pirate we caught that day."
Chen Ping nodded upon hearing this, not too surprised, and asked, "Did he kill that person?"
Wu Er said, "Of course he killed him. I watched him do it."
"Huh?" Chen Ping was puzzled for a moment, then wiped his sweat and said, "Senior Brother, you saw it all, aren't you going to stop it?"
Wu Er walked past the unconscious man in black, sat down on a seat to the side, and said, "No, although I'm lazy, besides, you should have finished interrogating them by now."
"The interrogation hasn't even started yet," Chen Ping said helplessly. "It's only been one night, and they were just arrested not long ago. How can the interrogation be completed?"
Only then did Wu Er realize what was happening.
Although his journey there and back was very long, because he flew so fast, it actually didn't take long.
It was dusk when I went there, and now it's just dawn.
With Pengshan Sect's gentle interrogation methods, they really couldn't finish the interrogation.
Of course, this gentle interrogation wasn't actually that gentle; it was only slightly better than that of other domineering sects.
"Let them silence us then," Wu Er said dismissively. "We've just caught another one; we can interrogate him."
Chen Ping gave a wry smile, unsure of what to say.
Wu Er then said, "By the way, I have another matter to attend to this time. I need you and me to go back to the sect. All of us fellow disciples need to be there."
"What's going on?" Chen Ping became serious. "Are all of us going to be there? Are we declaring war on those sects? Why such a big fuss?"
Wu Er replied, "I want to promote some disciples to inner disciples."
"Promoting a disciple? Does promoting a disciple require such a grand ceremony?"
Chen Ping was still puzzled, but no matter how puzzled he was, he still had to go back.
He will definitely listen to his senior brother.
Then he asked again, "When are we going back, Senior Brother?"
Wu Er thought for a moment and said, "It's been several days now, and Xiao Wu should have led the disciples back to the sect by now. Why don't we go back now?"
"Huh?" Chen Ping was choked by his senior brother's words again.
He thought to himself: Going back now? That's too sudden! Sigh... Senior Brother really does act on a whim. I remember he wasn't like this before, how come he's becoming more and more like a mischievous child?
Chen Ping felt a sense of helplessness and said, "Then I'll make arrangements for the Chamber of Commerce, and then I'll go back with my senior brother."
"Then hurry up and teach him," Wu Er said carelessly.
What followed kept Chen Ping extremely busy, sweating profusely.
They ordered the man in black to be taken in for questioning and instructed him on various matters.
The entire operation of the chamber of commerce relies on Chen Ping; without him, a whole host of affairs would be impossible to handle.
In order to successfully leave, Chen Ping ran around constantly, even using telepathy.
After working for quite some time, I finally managed to hand over all the tasks.
When Chen Ping came to find Wu Er after he finished his work, Wu Er said again, without a care in the world: Why are you so slow?
Whether Wu Er did it intentionally or unintentionally, Chen Ping was once again thoroughly choked up.
Just as Chen Ping said, Wu Er is becoming more and more like a child who is making a fuss over nothing.
Then, the two of them flew towards the sect without stopping.
This time, it was just the two of them going back, without any other members of the Pengshan Sect accompanying them, which can be described as extremely rushed.
However, it doesn't fly very fast.
One was a Daoist master, and the other was an immortal. They flew incredibly fast without anyone else with them.
Flying at full speed, it only took half a day to fly back to Pengshan Gate.
Of course, "flying with all one's might" here refers to Chen Ping flying with all his might.
Outside the main hall of the Tian Shu Hall in the Beidou Hall complex.
"Senior Brother... phew... could you fly a little slower next time?"
Chen Ping had just come down from the sky, bent over with his hands on his knees, looking pale and panting heavily.
Judging from this appearance... he must have overdrawn his energy.
Well, the overdraft here refers to the overdraft of spiritual energy due to excessive flight, not some other strange overdraft.
“It’s full enough.” Wu Er pointed to the sky. “Look, it’s already noon. If Xiao Wu flew with me, he would be back before noon.”
Chen Ping took another breath and said somewhat aggrievedly, "Senior Brother, I only have cultivation level, how can I compare to someone like Third Senior Brother who specializes in fighting?"
Wu Er ignored these words and said, "I have already sent a telepathic message to the others to come to the Tian Shu Hall. Let's go into the hall first."
After saying that, the two entered the Tian Shu Palace.
