Chapter 1616 The Terrifying Gift of Success
Cheng Shici's eyes were indifferent and cold, as if he had no emotion at all. He looked up and down at the other person, making him shiver.
"Young Master...subordinate...did you say something wrong?"
Cheng Shici said with a trace of sarcasm on his lips, "I really want outsiders to see how we blame the most virtuous person in the Western Territory for killing a few innocent people."
If there were any local from the Western Region standing here, he would probably be able to recognize the identity of the man in black at a glance.
The most virtuous man in the Western Region, Zhou Zheng!
He had just celebrated his fiftieth birthday, and at the birthday party, he donated millions of military coins to the orphans and widows in various cities in the Western Territory, and was thanked by countless orphans and widows.
Zhou Zheng, who was at the peak of Yunsheng Realm, suffered from a serious illness when he was thirty years old and injured his tendons. After that, he could no longer practice.
On the road to martial arts, if you don't advance, you will retreat. In the past twenty years, Zhou Zheng, who was once in the Yunsheng realm, has now become a second-level warrior in the Yunsheng realm.
If it were an ordinary warrior, he would probably be depressed a long time ago.
But Zhou Zheng didn't, as if he had understood because of this serious illness.
Using the money and connections he had accumulated over the years, he began to operate in the Western Region. It must be said that he was a genius in business. In less than five years, he had accumulated a large family fortune.
But he did not keep this family property, but donated all the money he earned every year to help the elderly, children, battlefield widows, etc. in the Western Region and even other areas.
Whenever there was someone who could help, he would help without hesitation and never shied away from any request.
His reputation in the Western Region is extremely high.
If Wang Dao is a saint in the north, then Zhou Zheng is a saint in the west. In the eyes of some people, Wang Dao is even worse than Zhou Zheng.
Of course, now Zhou Zheng's reputation in the Western Region is definitely not as good as Wang Dao. After all, Wang Dao saved the entire human race.
But Zhou Zheng's reputation and status should not be underestimated. In the Western Region, he exuded a warm light wherever he went.
But such a person is now facing a young man in his twenties, groveling, trembling in front of him, and even saying cold and heartless words. Even if he told outsiders, no one would believe him.
Who would have thought that Zhou Zheng's serious illness twenty years ago was actually a casual prank by Cheng Shiqi, who was only five years old?
Who would have thought that it was Cheng Shici who had single-handedly arranged the plot to accuse the saints of the Western Region in the past twenty years?
No one could have imagined that Zhou Zheng was just a puppet given by Cheng Shi!
"Young Master, please stop teasing your subordinates." Zhou Zheng said with a bitter smile.
"Ha..." Cheng Shici smiled faintly and asked, "Have you forgotten what I just said?"
Zhou Zheng was stunned and asked, "Are you talking about Wang Zhiyuan and his group? Are they fearless or stupid?"
"Two possibilities, you haven't figured out which one, are you going to kill him?" Cheng Shici asked in return.
Zhou Zheng said nonchalantly, "Young Master, you are too careful. Even if you are confident, it doesn't matter. You are just at the peak of your mental state. My subordinates want to kill him, but in the blink of an eye. You are so cautious. Do you think that the other party's state is a disguise?" of?"
Cheng Shici closed his eyes and asked calmly, "Let me ask you, when I get married, what is the reputation of Cheng Shici in Juyuan City?"
"Very good, you are kind to others, and your image is perfect. There are no flaws." Although Zhou Zheng didn't understand what Cheng Shici meant, he still answered honestly.
"What about in the eyes of other families?"
"This... I may think you are a little unpredictable. After all, they see things from different perspectives, and the family you run does have some problems. You have no interests in Juyuan City, and on the surface you take care of so many children. Family, I don’t quite understand the origin of your resources.”
"Is this kind of thing easy to investigate?"
Zhou Zheng seemed to understand, thought for a moment, and said, "It's easy to investigate. Wang Zhiyuan and his team should have learned about these situations through investigations in the past few days."
"Do you know what the rules are in the north? Do you know what the rules are in Sunyu City? Do you understand their behavior and way of thinking?"
"I don't know. The northern border is like an iron barrel now. Not to mention that the people below are united. Even the Biqing Sect, with the help of the Xun Dao Sect, has done a good job in protecting intelligence. It is difficult for outsiders to investigate without consent. Intelligence that you actually have.”
"Does the North lack crisis awareness? Does it have rich combat experience? Does it have measures to deal with conspiracies?"
"This... I'm not sure. The northern territory only became safe after the rise of Xundao Sect. However, the rise of Xundao Sect was very short. They must not be used to this kind of security. They should have rich crisis awareness and combat experience. Conspiracy I’m not too sure about that aspect.”
Cheng Shici opened his eyes again and said, "Then I can tell you that they have them, and they are extremely abundant. Don't forget, before the rise of the Xun Dao Sect, the North was a place that was obedient to the outside world and struck hard at home. That’s the place with the most conspiracies in the entire outside world.”
"What's more, Cheng Yumeng's supervision team supervises conspiracies and conspiracies, which is to peel off the cocoons from normal situations, find clues, and eliminate threats."
"As a soldier of the Second Army stationed in Sunyu City, Wang Zhiyuan must often have contact with the supervision team, and may even have performed tasks with the supervision team. Do you think he lacks experience in this area?"
"This time he arrived in Juyuan City. After receiving the mission, he did not do the mission, but went to investigate first. This already shows that this person is very sensitive to crises and conspiracies, cares about it, and takes it seriously."
"And after nearly three days of investigation, he knows about our Juyuan City. He also knows about the Six Soul Grass and may be involved in some conspiracy."
"But he still continued to complete the task, which only means that he is not afraid!"
"In Juyuan City, when I got married, or I was given the highest level of cultivation when I got married, the Soul Fusion Realm. If I wanted to, I could kill the four brothers and sisters in an instant, but he still did it. Why?"
Zhou Zheng said helplessly, "Young Master, I understand what you mean, but I dare to say that you are really too cautious. You are only five years old... If you really want to do something, I am afraid that this Shifang Continent will The Xun Dao Sect has not had the final say for a long time, but why have you spent the past twenty years..."
Zhou Zheng really didn't understand that five-year-old Cheng Shici could kill him while playing around, almost ruin his future, toy with him while applauding, and deceive everyone in the Western Territory.
Although Zhou Zheng became Cheng Shici's puppet for some reasons, in fact, he really admired Cheng Shici in his heart, and was even too scared to resist Cheng Shici.
If such a person really wants to do something, he has already accomplished it in the past twenty years.
But what about the gift in time? If he really wanted to do something big, I'm afraid he didn't do anything. Zhou Zheng really didn't understand what Cheng Shici had planned.
Cheng Shici looked at Zhou Zheng without any expression and said, "I want to know the reason. Have you thought about the price?"
