"We've already paid for the phone call, wouldn't it be a waste to chat for such a short time?"
Long-distance calls are very expensive.
The price is the same whether you shoot for 1 second or 59 seconds.
Before the passage closed, Ye Bai asked urgently,
"Fourth Brother, what were the results of the investigation?"
Shadow Four is exceptionally reliable in handling affairs.
"Yes, Jiang Xiuwen is not in Shadow Fortress, and his documents are also forged."
Documents can be forged, and memories can be altered.
However, if you investigate diligently, you can always find clues.
Moreover, Shadow Four was one of the experts, and he uncovered many clues in just one day.
Jiang Xiuwen is Jiang Yun's father. According to the records, he was originally a general who died in the Blood Sea Abyss. After transforming into a shadow, he carried out a protection mission for a period of time. Due to his weak obsession, he was forced to enter a deep sleep.
Shadow Four spoke truthfully.
"I retrieved the archives of the Myriad Things Pavilion and compared the results. I found that Jiang Xiuwen did not die in the battle of the Blood Sea Abyss; the cause of death is unknown..."
Ye Bai's brows were furrowed; the cause of death remained unknown.
Due to time constraints, Ye Bai had to keep his questions to himself and continue pressing for answers.
"Anything else?"
"Jiang Xiuwen performed well in the Shadow Realm; at his peak, he was among the top War Kings."
Shadow Four paused for a moment, then continued,
"Before entering a deep sleep, he had already begun to transform into Blood Shadow."
"Blood Shadow?"
Ye Bai remembered that Shadow Four had once told him something.
Many shadows cannot adapt to their identity as shadows; lacking sufficient conviction, they may lose control.
This loss of control is also known as 'Blood Shadow'.
If one succumbs completely, one will become a monster who only knows how to kill and destroy, and will never regain one's sanity.
Ye Bai asked one last question.
"What was Jiang Xiuwen's ranking among the War Kings before his transformation?"
"third!"
Shadow Four said in a deep voice,
"The third War King, also known as King Three."
"Oh..."
Ye Bai gave a self-deprecating laugh, his face slightly cold, and said in a chilling voice,
"Half a day ago, Shadow Ten sent me a message, asking me to protect Jiang Yun's shadow... who called himself Wang San."
Jiu Jiu, was this also part of your plan?!
