The three people looked solemn and exchanged quick glances.

Yunyouzi whispered:

"Don't act rashly for now and see what they want to do."

The team of officials quickly came to the three of them. The leader was a middle-aged man wearing a purple robe with a serious expression.

He looked around the three of them, and then slowly said:

"I am Li Chengyuan, the imperial censor of the Great Xia Dynasty, who has been ordered to investigate the unusual events that occurred here."

"I wonder if the three of you are Yunyouzi, Li Yang and Zhang Hui?"

Yun Youzi took a step forward and cupped his hands:

"Exactly... I wonder what Mr. Li has to say here?"

Li Chengyuan narrowed his eyes and looked at the three of them carefully:

"I heard that something unusual happened here recently. The imperial court sent me to investigate the situation."

"Since the three of you are involved, you must know something inside, right?"

Zhang Hui said quickly:

"Your Majesty, this is what happened..."

He briefly recounted what happened some time ago, omitting some key details of course.

After listening, Li Chengyuan nodded thoughtfully:

"I see!"

"But... I wonder if you three have any evidence to prove that what you said is true?"

Just as Yun Youzi was about to speak, Li Yang suddenly felt dizzy and his body shook involuntarily.

Yun Youzi, with quick eyes and quick hands, supported him.

Li Chengyuan noticed this scene keenly and frowned slightly:

"Brother Li Yang seems to be unwell?"

Yun Youzi quickly explained:

"Brother Li Yang fought with those evil spirits a few days ago and suffered some internal injuries that have not yet recovered."

Li Chengyuan nodded, but a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.

He pondered for a moment and said:

"In that case, please three of you follow me to the post house to talk about it."

"The three of you can take a rest here, and at the same time... I still have some details I want to know."

The three of them looked at each other and knew that it was inconvenient to refuse at this time, so they had no choice but to follow Li Chengyuan and others to the post house.

Along the way, Li Yang tried hard to control the restless power in his body, but he still felt dizzy from time to time.

Yun Youzi and Zhang Hui were secretly vigilant, always paying attention to the movements around them.

When they arrived at the post house, Li Chengyuan took the three of them to a spacious hall.

He retreated, leaving only a few close associates waiting outside the door.

"You three, please take a seat."

Li Chengyuan motioned for the three of them to take their seats, while he sat on the main seat.

He was silent for a moment before suddenly speaking:

"To be honest, in addition to investigating abnormal events, I also have an important mission when I come here this time."

Yunyouzi asked:

"I wonder what the mission is?"

Li Chengyuan looked serious:

"The Holy One suspects that someone is taking advantage of this incident to plot evil."

"And..." He paused and then said slowly:

"This person is probably in the imperial court."

Hearing this, Zhang Hui was suddenly shocked and asked calmly:

"Is this true!?"

Li Chengyuan nodded:

"It's absolutely true..."

"And according to the tip, this person may have absconded here."

Yunyouzi is thoughtful:

"So Mr. Li is here to hunt for this person?"

"Not bad." Li Chengyuan said,

"That's why I hope you three can assist us in our search."

"After all, the three of them are obviously very familiar with such strange and weird things, and they are also familiar with this place..."

"When the deed is accomplished, the DPRK will definitely thank you greatly."

The three of them looked at each other, and Yun Youzi said slowly:

"Since it is an order from the imperial court, we should do our best to assist..."

"I wonder if Mr. Li has a portrait or other information about this person?"

Li Chengyuan shook his head:

"There is no exact portrait yet."

"However, according to the intelligence, this person is tall, has a sinister face, and has an obvious scar on his right wrist."

Hearing this description, Li Yang's heart moved.

He thought of the black-robed man he had met in Qingshan City before, who seemed to have similar characteristics.

But at this moment, Li Yang suddenly felt a severe headache, as if something was about to burst out of his body.

He endured the pain and didn't let himself show any abnormality.

Yun Youzi noticed Li Yang's abnormality and quickly changed the topic:

"Master Li, I wonder if the court has anyone to suspect?"

Li Chengyuan glanced at the three of them meaningfully:

"It's still under investigation, but..."

At this point, he paused for a moment:

"Recently, there are rumors that Mr. Zhao Ming, the right prime minister, has behaved abnormally. Some people even suspect that he is involved in this matter."

Zhang Hui held his chin and basically had a rough idea.

But in order to confirm the other party’s position, he still asked casually:

"Master Zhao has always been known for his integrity, how could he..."

Li Chengyuan sighed:

"Everything in the world is unpredictable..."

"But this is just a rumor after all, and further investigation is needed."

After saying that, he stood up and nodded slightly:

"Okay, it's getting late. If you three have nothing else to do, please go back and rest first."

"We will start searching early tomorrow morning."

The three of them said goodbye and returned to the residence arranged for them by Zhou Mu.

After ensuring that no one was watching around, Zhang Huicai whispered:

"The situation is more complicated than we thought..."

"It seems that not only we are suspicious of Zhao Ming, but the Daxia court is also suspicious."

Yunyouzi nodded:

"That's true...but now I'm more worried about..."

He turned to Li Yang,

"Your situation seems to be getting more and more serious."

Li Yang smiled a little and shrugged a little:

"Indeed, I almost lost control of myself in front of Li Chengyuan just now."

"This situation... is really the first time I've seen it."

Yunyouzi thought for a moment and said:

"We have to find a way to help you suppress this power as soon as possible..."

"Otherwise, if Li Chengyuan's suspicion is aroused, we may be in great trouble."

Zhang Hui asked: "In that case...does Senior Yun have any good ideas?"

Yunyouzi shook his head:

"I can't think of any good ideas for a while, but..."

He suddenly thought of something and turned around and said,

"Maybe you can try that secret mirror."

As the relic of the gods that sent them here, it is also the only relic left by the gods who did not fall into madness.

In addition to being like the Golden Crow relic, the Tianji Mirror has great power.

It even has some...prophecy-like mechanisms.

After hearing this, Zhang Hui quickly took out the broken Tianji Mirror from his arms.

Then, the three of them sat together and looked at the mirror carefully.

Suddenly, a line of blurry text appeared on the mirror:

"The power of chaos originates from the beginning. If you want to resolve it, you need to find the root cause."

The three of them looked at each other, and Yun Youzi said thoughtfully:

"So... to completely solve Li Yang's problem, we have to find the source of the power of chaos."

Li Yang frowned and said:

"But doesn't the power of chaos come from the passages opened by those men in black robes?"

Yunyouzi shook his head:

"I'm afraid it's not that simple...Those channels are just a manifestation of the power of chaos, and the real source may be more profound."
