Chapter 1631 - Betrayal in the Valley – Truth Listener Awakens

The Dongfeng family was considered a first-rate family in the Southern Chu Empire. They were considered a group of people at the top of the pyramid.

Therefore, the Dongfeng family also had a powerhouse among them.

The old man leading the team was a stern man who gave off the feeling that it was not easy to get along with him.

Over the past two days, Qinchuan had noticed something about this old man. He seemed to be acting, and he was doing it very well.

He could feel that it couldn't be wrong, but he couldn't find any evidence.

He activated his Golden Divine Eye and Truth Listener.

"The City Lord said that the Dongfeng family will cooperate with us to get rid of them."

Qinchuan was stunned. He looked in the direction of the voice and saw the people from the City Lord's Residence.

Truth Listener had once helped Qinchuan. After all, many people knew a person for a long time without knowing their true nature. Sometimes, what the eyes saw was false, and what the ears heard was true. At such times, Truth Listener was especially important.

However, Truth Listener was limited by distance, but it was still very useful in this valley.

Qinchuan looked at the Dongfeng family members without batting an eyelid.

He still trusted the Dongfeng family head and Dongfeng Yiru.

However, these people had been bribed by the City Lord's Residence. Qinchuan quickly understood that the City Lord's Residence had put in a lot of effort to get rid of him. Otherwise, these people wouldn't have betrayed the Dongfeng family.

The reason they were loyal was because the price of betrayal wasn't high enough.

Besides, as long as they got rid of Qinchuan, even if they returned to the Dongfeng family, as long as they took the initiative to admit that they had failed to protect Qinchuan, it should be fine. After all, Dongfeng Yiru was fine. As a warrior, life and death were unpredictable.

"It's not the Dongfeng family that will cooperate with us, but the people leading today. The City Lord's Residence has put in a lot of effort this time."

Qinchuan remained calm. He was very far away, and the other party's words were suppressed. Normally, he wouldn't be able to hear them, but Truth Listener's ability allowed him to clearly hear their conversation.

As the saying went, know yourself and know your enemy, and you will emerge victorious. Qinchuan was now planning how to deal with them.

Originally, Qinchuan felt that with his enhancements and the Dongfeng family's leaders, there wouldn't be any problems in the Battlefield of Immortals, so he wasn't worried. He hadn't expected things to turn out this way.

They were going to enter the Battlefield of Immortals tomorrow. What should they do?

They gathered in groups of three to five and chatted about everything under the sun.

The bright moon hung in the sky, and the river of stars shone brilliantly.

Qinchuan and the others sat together and chatted casually. The other members of the Dongfeng Family were also present.

"Divine Doctor Qin, you must be careful when you arrive at the Immortal Battlefield. It's best if you don't stray too far away from us. Otherwise, I might not be able to protect you," the old man said slowly.

"Divine Doctor Qin is still very strong. Furthermore, Divine Doctor Qin is a Divine Doctor. The City Lord's Mansion probably wouldn't dare to touch Divine Doctor Qin." Another middle-aged man said.

"Second Elder, you underestimate Divine Doctor Qin too much. We're all here to look for treasures. How can we look for treasures together? Isn't it safer to stay in the Dongfeng Family?"

Qinchuan smiled as he looked at them. In fact, he knew very well that they wanted him and his group to move alone and not follow them.

If they weren't present, the City Lord's Mansion wouldn't be able to make a move. At that time, they could use the excuse that Qinchuan and the others weren't sociable, and they wouldn't have to bear any responsibility.

If they were by Qinchuan's side, the first thing they would do would be to watch the show and not help Qinchuan.

The second would be to join forces with the City Lord's Mansion to deal with Qinchuan. That was the last resort. They would only do this if they had no other choice.

They definitely wouldn't join forces with Qinchuan to deal with the City Lord's Mansion.

Qinchuan naturally didn't want to be together with the Dongfeng Family. If he did, he would be attacked by them together.

"We won't delay Second Elder from looking for treasures. We also want to find some treasures. The City Lord's Mansion is busy looking for treasures in the Immortal Battlefield. They probably won't have time to deal with us. Besides, there are so many people here. It'll be very difficult for them to find us." Qinchuan smiled.

"Divine Doctor Qin, we're under the orders of the Clan Lord to protect you." The Second Elder frowned.

Qinchuan smiled. This old thing was really good at acting.

"It's fine. If anything happens, I'll take responsibility." Qinchuan smiled. There was no other way. It was better to face the City Lord's Mansion and the Dongfeng Family.

Actually, there was another way, which was to retreat and not enter the Immortal Battlefield.

However, this wasn't Qinchuan's style. If he retreated when faced with difficulties, it would affect his cultivation. Of course, if he knew he would die, he would be stupid.

In the end, they couldn't come up with a solution. The Second Elder was very insistent on protecting Qinchuan.

In the end, they decided to enter the Immortal Battlefield tomorrow.

Qinchuan and the others gathered together.

Xuanyuan Xuan looked at Qinchuan in confusion. "Without the Dongfeng Family's protection, it'll be very difficult for us inside."

"With my understanding of Young Master Qin, there must be a reason. If we let the Dongfeng Family follow us, it'll be even more difficult." Canglan smiled.

Yu Luo Qing didn't say anything. She was quiet and indifferent. However, when she raised her head and looked at Qinchuan, her eyes flashed with understanding.

Xuanyuan Xuan was also a smart person. He reacted quickly and looked at Qinchuan. "How could this be?"

"Alright, we can only rely on ourselves." Qinchuan smiled.

"You can still smile." Xuanyuan Xuan smiled bitterly as he looked at Qinchuan.

"This is a good challenge. Treat it as training." Qinchuan smiled.

Seeing Qin Chuan's calm expression, the rest of them also felt relieved.

The next day!

The sun rose from the east. Ten thousand rays of golden light shone on the valley. It was as if the valley was covered in a layer of mysterious multicolored light. In that instant, everyone seemed to be filled with ambition. Their bodies seemed to be filled with power.

Soon, the entire valley was enveloped by a mysterious halo of light. It was like a giant cocoon of light.

Whoosh!

Everyone in the valley disappeared.

Qinchuan and the others felt their bodies sway slightly. It was as if they blinked their eyes. Then, they appeared in a mysterious place.

The sky was blue and the air was fragrant. There was vitality everywhere. The spiritual energy here was incomparably abundant. There were green mountains and clear waters, forests and lakes …

It was like a paradise.

However, this was the battlefield of the Immortals. It was said that countless Immortals had fought here. It was said that this place had fought so much that the sky and earth turned dark. Countless Immortals had fallen here. It was said that many treasures had fallen here. However, this place was filled with danger. Whether or not one could find treasures depended on fate and ability.

Second Elder and the others came to Qinchuan's side.

They had to put on a good show. Naturally, they couldn't just leave Qinchuan alone.

However, Qinchuan definitely wouldn't let them follow. If they did, they might not have a chance anymore. After all, Second Elder and the others were very terrifying.

Therefore, Qinchuan had to stop Second Elder and the others from following.

He knew that they were putting on a show, but he still had to continue acting.

"Second Elder, it wasn't easy for you to come here. Go. Don't let me hold you up. Moreover, I am quite strong. If you protect me like this, it will make me seem useless." Qinchuan had no choice but to say things like this.
