Zhang Yu looked at the reply and was slightly taken aback, “Why does it feel like she’s afraid I’ll continue talking?”

Fu Ji chuckled, “That woman probably guessed you and Bai Zhenzhen are participating in the Foundation Establishment Examination!”

“After all, it’s not hard to check the times you left the city!”

“And Yun Ni, as a hereditary inspector, knows the timing of the Foundation Establishment Examination, which is normal!”

Hearing Fu Ji’s analysis, Zhang Yu’s eyes flickered, and many thoughts came to mind!

Early the next morning, with the certificate issued by the inspection team and Yun Ni’s personal phone call, Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen finally obtained the approved leave of absence from the school and boarded the train to Xiandu!

Seeing Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen’s train about to depart, Si Zhouyu called again and asked, “Hey, what’s the situation now? Are we still following them?”

After a long while, a voice came from the phone, “Come back, don’t follow them anymore!”

Si Zhouyu frowned and said, “What are you saying? We’ve spent so much time on these two students. You’re saying don’t follow them anymore?”

“Their departure from the city must be for an important mission.”

“Why aren’t we following them!”

The other party said coldly, “This is the company leader’s order!”

“Leaders’ orders must be executed whether you understand them or not!”

“Come back immediately!”

Si Zhouyu took a deep breath, looked at the slowly starting train, shook his head after a long while, and left the station!

On the other side of the train, after Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen’s repeated attempts in the next few hours, they confirmed one thing!

Zhang Yu typed on his phone, “They didn’t follow us!”

Bai Zhenzhen: “They didn’t follow us? Could it be they know about the Foundation Establishment Examination and are afraid to continue investigating?”

Zhang Yu thought of Yun Ni’s reaction yesterday and replied, “I think so too. The only reason I can think of for such an abrupt withdrawal is the Foundation Establishment Examination!”

Bai Zhenzhen: “Too bad, I originally wanted to lure these guys into investigating the Foundation Establishment Examination!”

When Zhang Yu saw Yun Ni’s reaction yesterday and heard Fu Ji’s analysis of Yun Ni, he suddenly realized that amidst the constant waiting and forbearance, they had found an opportunity to counterattack!

It’s a pity that the other party didn’t take the bait today!

Zhang Yu: It doesn’t matter. At least through this, we can confirm one thing!

Zhang Yu: The one who wants to deal with us is not Zhou Chechen!

Zhang Yu: Because Zhou Chechen probably doesn’t know about the Foundation Establishment Examination!

Fu Ji said, “Indeed, only the upper echelons of the Zhou family would know about information like the Foundation Establishment Examination!”

Zhang Yu: “So our real opponent is not Zhou Chechen, but… the Zhou family!”

At the same time!

Songyang High School!

Lan Ling looked at Zhou Chechen in confusion and said, “How can you approve their leave? Zhang Yu might take this opportunity to cultivate. We shouldn’t give them any time to breathe.”

“We should withstand the pressure, not let them leave. If they leave, give them a disciplinary action directly and find a chance to expel them!”

Looking at Lan Ling’s dissatisfied appearance, Zhou Chechen sighed inwardly, no longer in the mood to say anything!

His mind was still recalling the process of Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen’s leave application!

“Inspector Yun Ni of the Inspection Team?”

Zhou Chechen thought to himself, “Is the Inspection Team behind them?”

“Well, Zhang Pianpian used to be in the Inspection Team. It’s not impossible that she introduced her connections to Zhang Yu after she left!”

“And Bai Zhenzhen, this guy asked for leave with Zhang Yu this time. It seems that she’s not as distant as she seemed in the school before. Her relationship with Zhang Yu is still good?”

“But now Zhang Yu’s backer has finally been found out. So what are Uncle and the others planning to do? Surely they don’t plan to continue fighting with the Inspection Team?”

“They can even leverage the power of the Inspection Team!”

“This Heretic God has quite the audacity!”

In the 333rd floor of the Central Building, on the hospital bed, Zhou Yang looked at the various messages from his subordinates and thought to himself, “And this timing actually coincides with the Foundation Establishment Examination?”

“Coincidence? Or a deliberate deception?”

Two choices suddenly appeared before Zhou Yang!

“Follow or not follow?” Zhou Yang decisively chose not to follow!

After all, in his opinion, the worst outcome of not following was nothing more than Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen running away completely, losing this clue!

“If this Heretic God really arranged for believers to run away, it means the other party is already suspicious. Even if we follow them, it’s meaningless. At most, we’ll catch Zhang Yu, a pawn!”

But what if following them revealed that they were actually attending the Foundation Establishment Examination?

He couldn’t let his subordinates investigate everything, especially before knowing what they could find out!

What if his subordinates really found out something they shouldn’t, like this Foundation Establishment Examination!! Especially after seeing the times of Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen’s previous two departures from the city, Zhou Yang suddenly broke out in a cold sweat!

He thought with some trepidation, “If this is really a deliberate deception, the preparation is too early. They started leaving the city four months ago. That was the registration time for the Foundation Establishment Examination, right?”

“So they really went to participate in the Foundation Establishment Examination?”

“They even made it to the second round? If that’s the case, Zhang Yu has hidden a lot of strength!”

“What exactly does this Heretic God want to do, daring to target the Foundation Establishment Examination?”

Zhou Yang thought and thought, but couldn’t understand. After all, neither Zhang Yu nor Bai Zhenzhen could possibly beat those Xiandu geniuses!

In his opinion, participating in the Foundation Establishment Examination was a complete waste of time and energy, and they might even have their Dao hearts shattered by the people of Xiandu!

What’s more, Zhang Yu has been tormented so badly by Zhou Chechen recently!

“They know they’ll be eliminated, but they’re still going. Is it for some intelligence?”

Although he couldn’t understand the Heretic God’s purpose, Zhou Yang became increasingly interested in the Heretic God behind Zhang Yu!

“Daring to target the Foundation Establishment Examination, this Heretic God’s position must not be low!”

“And now I’m hiding in the dark, and the other party doesn’t know anything about me. I, on the other hand, have more and more information about them. There’s an opportunity…”

“If Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen come back, seizing this clue will give me a great chance to devour this Heretic God’s position!”

“But I can’t touch the Foundation Establishment Examination. I have to be careful not to find out that they’re participating in the Foundation Establishment Examination!!! Or rather, I won’t have this concern until after the Foundation Establishment Examination is over!”

While he was thinking, Zhou Yang’s phone vibrated!

He opened his phone and looked at the monitoring screen, and saw that under the suppression of a ritual formed by countless coils, antiques, chains, and other things, a hard drive suddenly vibrated violently!

Looking at the constantly vibrating hard drive, Zhou Yang frowned, tapped his phone lightly, and saw the copper wires in the monitoring screen, like giant dragons, bound the hard drive and suppressed it again!

“Old thing, are you still unwilling to give up?”

The existence suppressed in this hard drive was the Heretic God passed down by the Zhou family!

As the most outstanding descendant of the Zhou family in the past ten generations, Zhou Yang had an idea after learning about the Heretic God’s secret and seeing the clan’s worship of the Heretic God!

“Why should we worship this thing?”

“We should raise the Heretic God like humans raise demonic beasts, not be enslaved by the Heretic God!”

So, after constantly cultivating, constantly learning, and constantly planning, he finally suppressed the Heretic God and turned it into his ritual battery!

But because of this, he paid a huge price!

Glancing at his missing lower body, Zhou Yang snapped his fingers, “Change my clothes, I’m going out!”

The clothes rack next to him suddenly opened, and in addition to coats, tops, and other clothing, there were also lower bodies wearing pants and shoes, which looked intact!

After casually picking a lower body to put on, feeling the feeling of flesh and blood connection and regaining his feet, Zhou Yang frowned, “Are these legs a little short?”

After changing to another lower body, he nodded in satisfaction, “That’s more like it!”

As for the lower body he thought was a little short, it directly turned into a pool of blood and was poured into the sewer!

However, looking at the faint corpse spots appearing on his calf, Zhou Yang said helplessly, “Alas, it should be fine to use it for a day, right?”

He stared at the title of the Purple-Gold Merit Master and thought to himself, “Let me think, who in Songyang City can control the Inspection Team?”

Ever since suppressing the Heretic God, Zhou Yang had lost his lower body!

No matter what new body he put on, it would quickly rot and turn into a corpse! But this was no problem for a wealthy person like him!

After all, Kunxu lacked everything, except for people. There were plenty of poor people willing to sell their legs for money and then replace them with prosthetic limbs!

But whether it was prosthetic limbs or the lower bodies of ordinary people, they were like clothes to Zhou Yang. He changed and threw them away at will, as they could neither withstand his use nor assist his cultivation!

After all, many cultivation techniques required a complete body to practice and use!

So, he selected many backup materials that were compatible with him, placed them in different locations to cultivate, raised them everywhere, and retrieved them when needed!

“I didn’t expect…”

Zhou Yang’s mind flashed with Zhang Yu’s figure: “My lower body actually went to participate in the Foundation Establishment Examination!”

Just as Zhou Yang was plotting something!

Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen had once again arrived at the underground examination hall in Xiandu City!

However, Zhang Yu didn’t meet with Bai Zhenzhen this time!

After all, from the second round of the Foundation Establishment Examination onwards, the examination was divided into four tracks: Dao Heart, Mana, Athletics, and Martial Arts. In the end, one candidate was selected from each track to be awarded the Foundation Establishment Qualification Certificate!

“Ah Zhen must have gone to the Martial Arts Exam,” Zhang Yu thought.

Zhang Yu looked at the other four candidates in front of him, knowing that these were the opponents he would face in the Athletics Exam!

Among them was Ye Lingxue, a top Xiandu native, and Yu Xinghan, an acquaintance of Zhang Yu!

Looking at Yu Xinghan’s thin appearance, Zhang Yu thought, “This kid, you wouldn’t have been working overtime the day before the exam, would you?”

Then, Zhang Yu felt Ye Lingxiao’s gaze, a gaze full of fighting spirit!

Ye Lingxiao: “You’ll use your full strength in this round, right?”

Zhang Yu thought, “The current me is worlds apart from the me two months ago!”

The gazes of both sides collided in the air, and a strong fighting spirit seemed to surge within!
