Back at Pengshan Gate, Wu Er temporarily put aside his thoughts.
He thought a lot about what President Dong had said on the way, because it was really suspicious that he would say such a thing for no reason.
What on earth happened that made the three arrogant human immortals come to form an alliance?
In terms of strength, although the demon race also has three demon saints, they are scattered in various places and cannot gather together. Moreover, there is a giant Buddha in the western desert.
Although the demon race is still a major threat, it is not a deadly one.
If it were only because of the demon race, then the three immortals of the Human Sect would not have taken the initiative to win over Wu Er.
This makes it even stranger. What major event could have happened?
Having pondered this all the way without finding a solution, Wu Er stopped thinking about it once he arrived above Pengshan Gate.
After glancing down, he didn't go straight back to Xiaoyuan Peak, but instead went to the small dark room that Xiao Mingmu had taken him to, wanting to see his second junior brother first.
Upon arriving at the small side hall, Wu Er did not enter through the door, but instead flew in through the skylight.
After all, it's not easy to get a window open in the dark room, so naturally I'll go through it a few more times. Maybe I'll just leave once the novelty wears off.
"Mingmu! Huh? Where is he?" Wu Er jumped into the side hall, looked inside but did not see Xiao Mingmu.
Normally, Xiao Mingmu works here, and he would stay for several days at a time. Now that he's gone, where has he gone?
Wu Er glanced around again and noticed several files on the table, along with a brush with ink still wet. It seemed that he had just left, or perhaps he had left halfway through reviewing official business.
This puzzled Wu Er, who muttered to himself, "Where did that person go?"
He unleashed his divine sense, covering the entire Pengshan Sect.
Wu Er began searching for his second junior brother, and with his extremely wide-ranging divine sense, he finally located Xiao Mingmu's position.
Xiao Mingmu hadn't gone far; he was still in the Tian Shu Hall, and Chen Ping was also in the hall with him.
No wonder he left halfway through the approval process; he went to see Chen Ping.
After all, his junior brother was injured, so Xiao Mingmu, as the second senior brother, naturally had to go and see him.
With that in mind, Wu Er, as the eldest disciple, should definitely go and take a look.
Then they flew through the skylight and headed straight for the Tian Shu Palace.
When Wu Erfei arrived outside the Tian Shu Palace, before he even went inside, he heard the sound.
"It seems like Senior Brother should be back soon."
"Second Senior Brother, how can you deduce the identity of the Eldest Senior Brother?"
"Of course not, it's just that we're familiar with each other. I think we junior brothers can all guess what our senior brother does."
It was Xiao Mingmu and Chen Ping talking.
At the entrance, Wu Er, who was about to go in, stopped in his tracks.
It's quite embarrassing to be predicted by your own junior brother in such a way, especially since it's so accurate.
There's a feeling... how should I put it... like being stripped naked and having your whole body exposed.
After a pause, Wu Er prepared to meet his two adorable junior brothers who had stripped him naked.
"Ahem... What are you talking about?"
Wu Er slowly walked into the Tian Shu Hall.
Inside the main hall, Xiao Mingmu and Chen Ping were sitting on one side, with a tea set on the tea table beside them.
Wu Er's nose twitched as he smelled the aroma of the tea.
This tea tastes a little different; besides the tea flavor, it also has a faint medicinal taste.
It seems that medicine was added to the tea. Chen Ping has never liked bitter medicine since he was a child, but he loves to drink bitter tea. If bitter medicine is mixed with bitter tea, it will be easier to drink.
Chen Ping was injured, though not seriously, but he needs some medicine.
Upon seeing Wu Er, Xiao Mingmu said to Chen Ping, who was standing to the side, "I knew it, Senior Brother would be back soon."
Chen Ping nodded and said, "Second Senior Brother guessed correctly; the difference was only a few breaths."
This feeling... the feeling of being completely seen through, even my underwear can't provide a sense of security...
Wu Er coughed twice to ease the awkwardness, then looked at Chen Ping and asked, "Xiao Ping, how's your injury? Is it still in pain?"
"Are you in pain?" Chen Ping put down his tea. "I'm just a little weak. I can't handle things at the Chamber of Commerce, so I need to go back to the sect to rest today."
Xiao Mingmu chimed in, "Don't worry, senior brother. I've checked. Xiaoping was just shaken; his foundation wasn't damaged."
After hearing this, Wu Er felt relieved and said slowly, "Then let's rest for a few more days. We can leave the Chamber of Commerce to others to manage. It's no big deal to take a few more days off."
Hearing this, Chen Ping shook his head and said, "That won't do. If we let them manage things, who knows what kind of trouble will happen. Without me, most of them won't work and will just be wasting their salaries. Besides, the other families have been making a lot of noise lately, and I'm afraid something else will happen."
That's true. Most people receive a fixed salary, so it doesn't make much difference whether the chamber of commerce makes a profit or a loss.
This is just like a company employee who gets paid; if the boss isn't around, they'll definitely slack off at work!
Moreover, the other major sects have indeed been making a lot of small moves lately.
Xiao Mingmu suddenly remembered something and said, "By the way, Xiaoping, our senior brother even went to the Chaoran Sect. I heard he smashed up their treasure vault, saying he was going to get revenge for you."
Chen Ping's expression changed in surprise. "Senior Brother? I'm only slightly injured and I'm already like this? Isn't that a bit much?"
“What’s wrong with that!” Wu Er said with a face full of resentment. “If I weren’t tied up with something and couldn’t do it, I would definitely skin that old scoundrel alive and use the skin to make you a plaster to heal your wounds!”
These words elicited a wry smile from Chen Ping.
After saying that, Wu Er looked at Xiao Mingmu and asked, "By the way, Mingmu, how did you know I was afraid the Chaoran Sect's treasure vault would be smashed?"
Although Wu Er not only smashed the treasure vault but also beat people up, he was still curious about how his second junior brother knew about it.
Although such a major event must have spread, the Chaoran Sect and Pengshan Sect are not close to each other, so it would take quite a while for the news to reach them.
Could it be something that was deduced?
"Oh, this." Xiao Mingmu took a sip of tea and then said, "I have an informant in the Chaoran Sect. He gave me the information."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Xiao Mingmu suddenly sensed something, then pulled out an antique-style communication jade talisman from his sleeve. Well, it's only useful for other sects.
This jade talisman.
"The informant has sent a message."
Xiao Mingmu glanced at the contents of the jade talisman, then smiled and looked at Wu Er, saying, "Senior Brother, you not only smashed things, but you also beat up someone's higher-ups?"
Wu Er nodded and said, "Yeah, it's about venting our anger... You even beat up my junior brother, so just smashing things won't do."
After hearing this, Chen Ping was startled again. "Senior Brother, aren't you afraid of retaliation?"
"What are you afraid of?" Wu Er patted his chest and said, "I'm not afraid of retaliation. If they dare to come, I'll beat up a few more."
Xiao Mingmu added, "Indeed, nothing happened this time. The one from the Chaoran Sect didn't show up, which probably means he tacitly approved it."
