Chapter 518: Discord and Suspicion (3)

“But I’ve already asked your guards. No one approached the area just now!”

Xiang Tianjie could not defend himself. Then, he frowned and asked,

“Why did you suddenly appear? This letter appeared too coincidentally, and you came at the right time. This is clearly a trap aimed at me! Commander, please investigate!”

However, Lu Longchuan was unmoved. He solemnly spoke,

“For the past few days, I’ve been getting my personal guards to monitor you. Every day, a different person would be spying on you. If I hadn’t been more careful, I would have really been fooled by you!”

Xiang Tianjie’s eyes widened in disbelief, “You were monitoring me?”

“That’s right. A spy from the Imperial Court told me that you were secretly colluding with the enemy. I didn’t believe it at first, but what else do you have to say now?”

Lu Longchuan shouted.

Hearing this, Xiang Tianjie immediately felt a wave of grief and indignation strike him hard.

He did not expect that after being brothers for so many years, his chief did not trust him and actually sent someone to monitor him.

No wonder he had been feeling uneasy these past few days. It turned out that he was really being watched.

However, with the physical evidence here, it was like yellow mud falling from his pants and someone calling it poop. Xiang Tianjie knew that it was difficult to explain, so he could only rouse his spirits and shout,

“Commander, listen to me. This is the enemy’s plan to frame me and sow discord. From the beginning to the end, I’ve never colluded with the enemy! Commander, don’t fall into the enemy’s trap!”

“There’s evidence here. Even if you say anything, you won’t be able to avoid it. Guards, tie him up and lock him in prison for a detailed interrogation!”

Lu Longchuan hurriedly ordered.

The soldiers on both sides apologized and detained the indignant Xiang Tianjie.

Seeing everyone leave, the anger on Lu Longchuan’s face disappeared and turned into a worried expression.

“Advisor, do we really have to do this?”

Sun Rong shook his head, “We’ve caught him red-handed, so we can’t let him go even if we want to. To be safe, we can only lock him up first.”

Although they had obtained the evidence of the letter, the two of them did not completely believe the authenticity of this item. They still felt that this might be a matter of someone making Xiang Tianjie the scapegoat.

However, regardless of whether Xiang Tianjie was framed or not, since this letter appeared here, it proved that there was really a spy inside!

Moreover, the status of a spy was definitely not low. Otherwise, how could the inside story of the military intelligence in the letter be so detailed?

Unfortunately, the real traitor tonight did not give himself away.

The two of them could only beat him at his own game. They would lock Xiang Tianjie up first before carefully investigating who was the traitor.

However, although the two of them subconsciously did not believe him, they could not help but suspect Xiang Tianjie.

Could there be a possibility that he had really colluded with the enemy?

“Who could it be…”

Lu Longchuan frowned as faces flashed through his mind.

Which old brother of his had betrayed him?

His heart was in a mess. He felt that many people were possible culprits and could not help but be suspicious of everyone.

In Lu Longchuan’s opinion, what the letter said was most likely true. In terms of his opinion of him, it was probably the writer’s heartfelt words.

Although he could not fully believe this letter, after thinking about it, it seemed that only the leader of the Anti-Recruitment Sect had a motive to betray him.

Could it be that my choice to accept the recruitment was really unpopular?

Lu Longchuan’s expression changed.

Thinking of Chen Feng’s heroic bearing, his heart was shrouded in a layer of gloom.

Although he was not someone who felt sorry for himself, compared to this invincible man, he felt sincerely ashamed of his inferiority. He knew that his charm was far inferior to the other party.

If not for the fact that he had been on good terms with the leaders for many years, they would have long wanted to join Chen Feng, right?

For a moment, Lu Longchuan was worried about the future, his expression one of uncertainty.

At the same time, on the other side of the Heavenly King Stronghold’s camp, in Perfected Master Windwalker’s residence.

In the tent, Zhou Jing slowly opened his eyes.

“The division of a group often starts with suspicion. The human heart is one easily prone to change. Next is to wait. I just need to add a few more flames at the right time… I wonder if that Lu guy still has the ability to suppress everyone under him.

However, I don’t think he can do it. He’s already an old vegetable. His youthful ambition has long been exhausted. His style is becoming more and more like a dog hiding. He’s very slick and sly, but he’s not charming enough.”

As he thought, he shook his head, blew out the candle that was emitting green flames, and put away the ghost taming technique.
