Put Away Your Divine Techniques Now! Chapter 1237 - 368: [I Know Her!] (3)

Moreover, considering her relationship with Mr. Chen, it looks like we’re asking for advice ’behind his back’, but she might turn around and tell Mr. Chen about me seeking guidance privately, after all, their relationship is closer!

Then..."

"Then it’s even better!" Liu Jianshan laughed heartily.

"Indeed, it’s even better.", Liu Zhaoming smiled and said, "According to human nature, a person, knowing that someone who has benefited from them is cautiously probing to learn their preferences, just to be more meticulous and more careful in pleasing them.

This carefulness, this respectful attitude... he will surely develop a favorable impression of us!"

Liu Jianshan looked at his son and sighed, "Inferring from one example, you’ve finally got somewhat enlightened."

In the Liu Family mansion, Liu father and son were discussing how to please Chen Yan, but Chen Yan, the main character being discussed by the two big figures of Port City, immediately put aside matters related to the Liu Family once he returned home.

He first spent some quality time with Lu Sisi, then after coaxing the girl to sleep, he got up and went to the practice room in the house.

After closing the door, Chen Yan sensed that Zhou Qingning, who was hiding and resting in the Fire Copper within the Storage Equipment, had not awakened.

He pondered... Though the secrets surrounding Zhou Qingning were disregarded, the black crystal stone was indeed related to himself, and must be investigated.

Now knowing Zhou Qingning’s status is extraordinary, especially having been a member of the garrison army personnel of the Pass Towns, very likely a general’s offspring, then... it is indeed a lead to investigate.

But I can’t go to the Domain Realm now or see anyone from there. In this world, where can I find someone who can help me inquire about a Domain Realm Pass Town garrison officer’s identity?

After seriously thinking about it, he indeed thought of someone!

That old fox, You Su Yi!

·

In the past, You Su Yi also served on the frontline of Pass Towns and was once a subordinate of Chen Yan’s father, Chen Jue.

She had many comrades-in-arms in the army and had secretly visited many Pass Towns afterward to investigate Chen Jue’s disappearance, so she must be very knowledgeable about the garrison situation in the Domain Realm Pass Towns!

Asking her for information might reveal something.

You Su Yi’s phone was easily connected.

Now she has recovered from her injuries, staying by her wealthy son’s side, living under a pseudonym, and enjoying family bliss. Occasionally, she might assist Chen Yan with some Inspection Bureau tasks, exterminating some minor evil cultivators and spirits, but most of the time, she is almost living in peaceful retirement.

When the phone connected, there seemed to be sounds of a TV program on You Su Yi’s side, indicating a leisurely life at home.

Nonetheless, the old fox’s attitude was still very polite.

"Fellow Daoist, what brings you to me?"

Chen Yan chuckled, "Fellow Daoist You Su, long time no contact, how have you been lately?"

You Su Yi’s tone was cheerful, "Thanks to Fellow Daoist, life is calm and my son is filial. So, is there something you need me to help with?"

Chen Yan laughed heartily, "I wouldn’t dare trouble Fellow Daoist, there’s nothing that needs Fellow Daoist to personally handle, but there are some things I’d like to ask Fellow Daoist about."

"What do you want to ask about?"

"Hmm..." Chen Yan pondered briefly, "Fellow Daoist, in the past in the Domain Realm’s Three Platforms, Eight Passes, and Sixteen Towns, you must have had many comrades and known many people, right?"

The phone became quiet, You Su Yi apparently turned off the TV, and slowly said: "Fellow Daoist wants to inquire about the Domain Realm Pass Town matters?"

"Yes, I am researching a person."

You Su Yi seemed somewhat puzzled but still asked, "May I know which Pass Town this person belongs to that Fellow Daoist is inquiring about?"

"Uh... specifically which place within the Three Platforms, Eight Passes, and Sixteen Towns, I still don’t know. Right now I only have a name, no idea if Fellow Daoist You Su has heard this name."

Pausing, Chen Yan slowly said: "Zhou Qingning!"

On the other end, old fox You Su Yi’s breathing suddenly halted!

In an instant, Chen Yan detected a change in You Su Yi’s breathing rhythm, and even over the phone, he could almost feel a hint of suppressed emotion in You Su Yi’s attitude.

But her following words still contained a trace of implicit caution along with... an oddly complex taste.

"Fellow Daoist, how did you come to know the name Zhou Qingning?"

With one sentence, Chen Yan immediately judged: You Su Yi knows Zhou Qingning!

Indeed, Chen Yan did not answer, and after a few seconds of silence, on the phone, You Su Yi sighed lightly.

"I know Zhou Qingning.

I once served in the same Pass Town with her, and have fought side-by-side in resisting enemies.

She was once the Flag Guard Officer of the Immortal Army Fire Squad Part B of Luoyan Town!"

Luoyan Town...

Hearing this name, Chen Yan suddenly found it familiar, then immediately realized.

This Luoyan Town was precisely the Pass Town You Su Yi had told me she once served at!

At the same time...

It was also the Pass Town where Chen Jue once served!

Moreover, it was the place where Chen Jue made his name, by killing thousands of evil spirits with one sword in a battle that shook the world!!

Wait, wait!

Chen Yan’s heart shook again!

In that case, this Zhou Qingning might even...

Was once a subordinate of my father?!

Recalling the scenes of fighting so brutal and bloody in Zhou Qingning’s memories at the Pass Town, along with the dense, endless waves of the "Evil" army on the ground... it was clearly a battle of significant scale!

Could that battle be ???

Is it "that battle"?!
