Chapter 1627: Chapter 16: Where the Dragon Coils and the Tiger Crouches

Leaving the mortuary, stepping onto the bare stone tiles, he happened to encounter Zheng Shangming when passing the North Yan prison.

Or rather, Zheng Shangming had tid it to wait here.

“Already done with the inspection?” Zheng Shangming asked.

At the sa ti, he sent a voice transmission: “About the Beiyar Commander’s matter, Brother Jiang must decide as soon as possible.”

Jiang Wang’s heart stirred.

He understood that Zheng Shangming had probably grasped so clues.

The matter of the Beiyar Commander, of course, was not convenient to discuss openly. And just having experienced the strange behavior of the Blue-plate Catcher in the mortuary, Jiang Wang wasn’t entirely trusting of the security inside the North Yan.

On the surface, he said, “The inspection is done, nothing unusual about the body.”

He replied via voice transmission: “I understand.”

Zheng Shangming nodded, “Then take care, Brother Jiang, I’ll co to pick you up at your residence tomorrow.”

Jiang Wang declined, “No need for the trouble, I’ll et Brother Zheng outside the Long Life Palace tomorrow morning.”

At the sa ti, he sent a voice transmission, “Check the constable who just accompanied into the mortuary; there’s sothing suspicious about him. Also, check Feng Gu’s body again; I suspect he might have tampered with it sohow.”

Zheng Shangming smiled, “It’s not about bothering; it’s the procedure for handling cases. When we go out, we have to take the North Yan’s carriage and can’t make contact with others.”

In the voice transmission, he responded, “Don’t worry, if there’s a problem with this person, it won’t remain hidden. I’ll discover a new clue tonight and then re-examine the corpse. I’ll inform you the mont I find any news.”

“Since it’s the procedure, let’s follow the rules,” Jiang Wang cupped his hands, “I’ll take my leave first.”

“Take care.”

Zheng Shangming watched him leave, then turned back to the iron room.

Both of them had a long-standing friendship, which was well-known in the North Yan, so their small talk wouldn’t arouse suspicion.

Jiang Wang didn’t seek out Lin Youxie but instead left the North Yan on his own.

The North Yan carriage was still waiting outside, ready to take him back to his residence.

Though Linzi was prosperous, few people were willing to co to places like the North Yan.

A candy vendor was pushing a wheelbarrow, calling out to sell his goods, while several passersby looked worried.

Jiang Wang couldn’t help but think…

In Jiang Wuqi’s mural of all beings, where should he stand?

The world is like a net; how many people can escape it?

Bending down to sit in the carriage, amidst the gently rolling sound of the wheels, Jiang Wang quietly toyed with the Red Mirror in his hand.

Earlier, when achieving the Outer Building in the depths of the universe, it was thanks to the Red Mirror that montarily immobilized the Dragon God, creating an opportunity for Master Guan Yan to completely sever the Dragon God from his

He once thought that perhaps the Red Mirror had awakened so power.

But upon closer examination later, he found no new changes in the Red Mirror.

Its functions remained the sa.

Entering the Mirror World in flesh still brought him into that white, boundless space. As for the Spiritual Soul Trial, he didn’t dare attempt it for the ti being…

Jiang Wang speculated that perhaps the Red Mirror simply had a special reaction towards the Dragon Clan.

There had indeed been several indications early on.

The Red Mirror was acquired from Hu Shaong of the Diao Hai Building, and from the subsequent developnts, it seed the secrets of the Red Mirror were likely shared solely by Hu Shaong and his master, Hai Zongming…

The origin of the Red Mirror was indeed overseas.

Moreover, during the Fuhai Calamity, the cursed na spoken in a venomous female voice that ran through all of the Spiritual Soul Tribulations was also “Fuhai.”

In the end, during the Fuhai Calamity, a great sun dried up the ocean.

All this information was related to the “sea.”

And the greatest overseas threat to the Human Race was the Sea Clan.

In ancient tis, the Dragon Clan, along with nearly half the Water Race, retreated to the Cang Sea. Over long ages, they evolved into today’s Sea Clan.

Jiang Wang couldn’t help but wonder if the existence nad “Fuhai” had so connection to the Dragon Clan.

The battle in the depths of the universe revealed that the Senhai Dragon God clearly had so understanding of the Red Mirror. But extracting information from Him was not yet possible…

With the old dragon’s cunning, the more Jiang Wang expressed interest in the Red Mirror’s origin, the more he would be manipulated.

The Red Mirror likely had greater potential, but it couldn’t be fully explored until he had the capability to survive the next round of Spiritual Soul Tribulations.

However, as Jiang Wang rubbed the Red Mirror at that mont, he was not thinking about the mirror itself but rather what the Dragon God had said in the Yuheng Star Tower.

He said He had managed the Forest Sea Source Realm for a thousand years, yet in the end, no one followed Him… speaking of the indistinguishable righteousness and pure virtue not rewarded by fortune.

Of course, that was all nonsense.

The Dragon God only knew how to exploit and plunder, committing too many evils. Naturally, when His true nature was revealed, he won no hearts, and no one followed.

Those mind-ensnaring argunts were words Jiang Wang couldn’t even be bothered to hear.

But at that mont, he suddenly thought…

What about Jiang Wuqi?

After Jiang Wuqi’s death, the massive influence of the Long Life Palace seed utterly silent, making no move.

The way the Senhai Dragon God conducted such contrary actions naturally led to betrayal and alienation. But how could soone like Jiang Wuqi, a noble born of celestial lineage with extraordinary charisma, have “no followers”?

Even soone like Jiang Wang, a genius among geniuses, developed great admiration for Jiang Wuqi after only a few encounters.

What about his closest confidants?

Where did they all go?

Even if the tree falls and the monkeys scatter, it couldn’t be that only the Old Eunuch Feng Gu remained.

Perhaps Jiang Wuqi had already severed ties with his faction before making such a decision, allowing all allegiance to Daqi, completely opening his political resources for his siblings to divide…

But there were still so people whose connection to the Long Life Palace couldn’t be severed, regardless of how they were cut.

Like Feng Gu.
