Chen Zhou had no choice but to say, "I am just a rogue cultivator from the common people. Brother Su Feng, I am far inferior to you."
Seeing that Chen Zhou was still not telling the truth, Su Feng was a little unhappy and immediately said, "I have gone out to purchase goods many times, and I have never seen any rogue cultivators in the human world who are still practicing array formations."
This statement undoubtedly forced Chen Zhou to reveal his true identity. Although Chen Zhou helped Wo Yuan and Su Feng escape their predicament, this matter concerned the survival of the three factions in the Wolong Mountain area.
If Chen Zhou were an undercover agent from elsewhere, it would be absolutely impossible for Su Feng to lower his guard against Chen Zhou just because Chen Zhou helped him once.
“Brother Su Feng, where I come from is not important. You only need to know that I am now a registered array master of the Tianyun Association. As for my other identities, I cannot disclose them. Moreover, my purpose in coming here is simply to safely pass through the Wolong Mountain area to the Northern Kingdom. I have no other intentions toward the Wolong Mountain area,” Chen Zhou said earnestly.
As soon as Chen Zhou spoke, Wo Yuan immediately said, "That's right, it's someone else's privacy, and they have the right not to talk about it. Besides, they saved us once, so don't pressure them like this."
Hearing what Wo Yuan had said, Su Feng couldn't continue to make things difficult for Chen Zhou, so he said, "Brother Da Chuan, forget what I just said. I had no choice. After all, I am also a member of the Su Long Sect. Although I have now left the Su Long Sect, I still consider myself a member of the Wo Long Three Sects. I always think about the Wo Long Three Sects. I was too impulsive when I questioned him just now. I am really sorry."
Su Feng had grown accustomed to this kind of interrogation within the Su Long Cult. The Su Long Cult had suffered heavy losses due to repeated sneak attacks because of its excessive trust in others. This had instilled in Su Feng a sense of insecurity, and interrogation had become a habit. Moreover, Chen Zhou had deceived him first.
"Why do I sense a familiar aura about you? Are you a member of the Crouching Dragon Sect?" Qianwei, who had been silent until now, suddenly asked.
After Chen Zhou arrived, Su Feng slowly raised the plank road further.
Hearing Qianwei's sudden question, Chen Zhou felt a chill run down his spine. He inwardly cried out in alarm, realizing he had already cultivated the Dragon Pattern, and his body was already imbued with its aura. For someone who had cultivated the Dragon Pattern for years, this aura was extremely sensitive, but difficult to detect without careful examination. Clearly, neither Su Feng nor Wo Yuan had bothered to carefully probe Chen Zhou's aura because he had saved them.
Only Qianwei from the Qianlong Sect carefully examined Chen Zhou's physical aura.
That's why he discovered the aura of the dragon pattern and asked that question, because the dragon pattern that Chen Zhou cultivated was very similar to the dragon pattern of the Crouching Dragon Sect.
Chen Zhou was at a loss for words. Fortunately, Wo Yuan had come to his rescue earlier, but how could he get out of this predicament now?
All three of them turned their gazes to Chen Zhou again, and even those who hadn't carefully examined Chen Zhou's aura before, Su Feng and Wo Yuan began to investigate him thoroughly.
"The aura of a dragon pattern?!" Wo Yuan exclaimed in surprise upon sensing a familiar aura emanating from Chen Zhou.
“It is indeed the dragon pattern of your Wolong Sect!” Su Feng also noticed it at this moment and immediately looked at Wo Yuan and murmured.
At this moment, Wo Yuan began to carefully examine Chen Zhou. There was no such person in her sect, and Wo Yuan had never seen such a person before.
Simply put, we can tell from Chen Zhou's identity that he is a formation master. Since none of the three major sects of Wolong are formation masters, it is clear that Chen Zhou is not a member of the three major sects of Wolong, let alone the Wolong sect.
What does it mean that someone who is not from the Wolong Sect has cultivated the Wolong Sect's dragon pattern?
Stealing techniques!
Wo Yuan's strength ranks among the top in the Wolong Sect. She has participated in many battles outside the sect. The people she hates the most are those who steal the Wolong Sect's techniques. At this moment, someone who has stolen the Wolong Sect's Dragon Pattern Techniques appears in front of her!
What crime should this be punished with?!
Wo Yuan had always received the advice from the higher-ups on how to deal with such people: kill them without mercy.
The techniques of one's own sect must never be revealed.
This is not just about the continuation of a religious sect, but more about faith.
Chen Zhou has undoubtedly run into the line of fire.
"You are not a member of my Wolong Sect, so why are you stealing my Wolong Sect's techniques?" Wo Yuan's face hardened as she immediately spoke to Chen Zhou.
Chen Zhou now deeply regrets listening to Elder Ren and learning this bullshit Dragon Pattern Technique. He could have learned it after leaving the Wolong Mountain area! What was the rush? Honestly, Chen Zhou is now speechless and doesn't know how to answer.
As Ren Lao was in the spiritual world, he could naturally know what Chen Zhou was thinking. At this moment, Ren Lao was not only not in a hurry, but also very calm.
Old Ren slowly said, "No rush, no rush. Let me think of a way to get you out of this predicament. These kids are just little brats."
Chen Zhou was speechless. Wasn't there a rush? If he didn't explain, he might be arrested by the three of them in the next moment.
“Brother Sufeng, it seems there’s a big problem with the person you brought! If things continue like this, it’s not that I disagree, but the people in the sect will never accept him or let him go.” Qianwei said with difficulty at this moment.
Su Feng sighed several times, and just as he was about to speak, Wo Yuan said again, "Hmph! It's now confirmed that he stole the techniques of my Wolong Sect! Speak up quickly, or I won't care about your previous life-saving grace! We've already done more than enough. If you came here to steal the techniques, I advise you to stop now!"
