"How is that possible?"
Fenghua Lu's body trembled. He didn't expect to hear such news from Wutian.
Then, his face quickly darkened and he shouted coldly, "Wutian, you're spouting nonsense. I absolutely don't believe that father and mother are spies from the Eastern Region!"
"Actually, I'm just guessing." Wutian said thoughtfully.
According to the records of the Flood Dragon Emperor, among the four Saints, the Upper Profound Saint and the Lower Profound Saint had the deepest enmity with the Flood Dragon Emperor. Moreover, their whereabouts were mysterious. Except for going to the Profound Yellow Battlefield, they rarely showed up. Therefore, his suspicions were not without reason.
However, suspicions were just suspicions. Everything still needed evidence to speak.
"Don't worry. If your parents are not spies, I will cancel the soul contract. On the contrary …"
Before Wutian finished speaking, Fenghua Lu's eyes lit up and he said decisively, "On the contrary, I will put righteousness before family and bury them with my own hands!"
Hearing this, Wutian and Yun Yuting were both stunned.
Feng Hua Lu shook his head and sighed. "Although I am their son, I am also a part of the Eastern Territory. No matter how arrogant, domineering, and unreasonable I am, I know that I have a responsibility on my shoulders. This responsibility is to protect the Eastern Territory. If I have to choose between family and righteousness, I will choose righteousness."
Wutian and Yun Yuting looked at each other.
When Fenghua Lu said this, he was sincere and there was no trace of falsehood. This made the two of them look at him in a new light.
"Your choice proves that you are not hopeless." Yun Yuting smiled sweetly. This was the first time she showed a sincere smile in front of Fenghua Lu.
"Humph! Don't make it sound so bad. If it weren't for my carelessness today, who knows who would have fallen into whose hands. "Fenghua Lu snorted discontentedly.
Then, he looked at Wutian and continued, "I will do my best to help you, but if it turns out that my parents are not spies, not only will you cancel the soul contract, but you will also have to apologize to them personally."
"Of course." Wutian nodded, then knocked his head and said, "If there's a chance, investigate the other three Saints as well."
"The other three Saints?"
Fenghua Lu was stunned and asked in puzzlement, "Who exactly are you working for?"
"Why do you say that?" Wutian looked over with interest.
"It's not hard to understand."
Fenghua Lu analyzed, "If you are really a spy as the rumors say, you will never put in so much effort to investigate my father and the others. Therefore, I have reason to suspect that there is someone behind you, and I'm afraid that your identity is not ordinary."
Wutian did not deny it. He nodded and said, "You're right. We were indeed entrusted by someone. As for this person's identity, if you think about it carefully, you should be able to figure it out."
He lowered his head and pondered for a moment. Suddenly, Fenghua Lu's expression changed. He looked up at Wutian and asked in surprise, "Is it Samsara Saint Master?"
"There are some things that are best left unsaid," Wutian warned.
"I understand, I understand." Fenghua Lu's pupils contracted and he nodded repeatedly.
The existence behind these people was actually Samsara Saint Sovereign, which was completely beyond his expectations. It seemed that there would be an unprecedented upheaval in the Eastern Region soon!
"Since it's his instruction, I will do my best to help. I only hope that father and mother will not go astray!"
Feng Hua Lu's expression was solemn as he solemnly promised Wutian and Wushuang. He also stated his position, and then he looked worried.
Wutian saw this and sighed in his heart. Although Fenghua Lu and his parents did not have a deep relationship, after all, he was their flesh and blood.
As the saying goes, of all virtues, filial piety is the most important. If he finally found out that the truth was not what he had imagined, no matter how absolute the decision was now, it would be difficult to really face it at that time!
As for telling Fenghua Lu the truth, Wutian did not care.
With the soul contract, he could completely erase Fenghua Lu before he revealed the secret.
Next, the three began to discuss the details. It was not until evening that they walked out of the private room.
Fenghua Lu called someone to arrange a room for Wutian and his wife to rest, while he himself left in a hurry. It was not until half a month later that he returned to the Leisure House and immediately found Wutian.
After a secret conversation, the information that Fenghua Lv had found out was not of much use to Wutian. However, there was one thing that caught his attention. It was that the night before he went to the Mysterious Yellow Battlefield, the four Saints had a secret meeting.
As for the purpose of the meeting and the content of the conversation, because of the short time, they had not figured it out.
The four Saints would never meet for no reason. There must be something fishy about it. Wutian asked Fenghua Lu to find out the content of the conversation no matter what.
Fenghua Lu said that it was not difficult to find out the content of the conversation. He could start with two people.
The first person was his mother, Kong Bi Ming Wang.
The second person was the housekeeper of the Shang Xuan Saint, Yang Mingkong.
It was said that when Yang Mingkong was surrounded by strange creatures and was about to die, the Shang Xuan Saint suddenly appeared and rescued him from the gates of hell. Since then, Yang Mingkong had followed the Shang Xuan Saint wholeheartedly.
After a long time of getting along, the Shang Xuan Saint also regarded him as a trusted aide. The affairs of the Shang Xuan Mansion were all handed over to him.
"Shang Xuan Mansion?" Wutian was puzzled.
Fenghua Lu explained, "The Shang Xuan Mansion is the residence of the Shang Xuan Saint."
Wutian nodded, motioning to continue.
Fenghua Lu frankly said that Kong Bi Ming Wang was his mother after all, and it was inconvenient for him to do it. He also hoped that Wutian could understand.
That left Yang Mingkong.
Yang Mingkong's cultivation base was said to be at the peak stage. Because he was the most trusted aide of the Shang Xuan Saint and also had a fifth tribulation Saint weapon, it would not be easy to pry something out of him.
It was said that Wutian searched the information obtained from the Flood Dragon Emperor's manual, and the result was the same as what Fenghua Lu said.
After thinking for a while, Wutian smiled and said confidently, "It's okay. As long as you can lure him out without anyone noticing, we will have a way to deal with him."
Fenghua Lu shook his head and said, "This is a bit difficult. Yang Mingkong is famous for his loyalty. Unless the Shang Xuan Saint personally gives the order, he will not take half a step out of the Shang Xuan Mansion."
"Haha! It's not difficult, not difficult at all. "Wutian smiled faintly.
"Do you have a brilliant plan?" Fenghua Lu's spirit rose.
"If I remember correctly, the Shang Xuan Saint has a grandson, right?"
Fenghua Lu's eyes lit up, and he immediately slapped the table and applauded.
The Shang Xuan Saint did have a grandson, and it was his most beloved son. As long as they could lure him out, the Shang Xuan Saint's most trusted aide would definitely not sit idly by.
Suddenly, Fenghua Lu realized a problem. In the entire Reincarnation City, not many people knew about this.
Moreover, in order to protect this grandson, the Shang Xuan Saint did not allow him to take half a step out. As time passed, even Fenghua Lu had almost forgotten about the existence of such a person. How did Wutian know about this?
Facing Fenghua Lu's suspicious gaze, Wutian smiled but did not say anything.
Whether or not there was a soul contract, the secret of the Flood Dragon Emperor's manual could not be leaked.
The importance of the manual was related to the safety of the entire East Region. There could not be any mistakes.
"Knock, knock!"
"Leader, I have something to report."
Suddenly, there was a series of knocks on the door, followed by a voice from outside.
Fenghua Lu frowned and shouted coldly, "Didn't I tell you that no one is allowed to disturb me during this period?"
"Tower Lord, please don't be angry. This subordinate told the five guests the same thing, but they said that they were with the two guests. When this subordinate heard that, this subordinate didn't dare to stop them, so I came to report it."
Fenghua Lu looked at Wutian in confusion.
"They came faster than I expected." Wutian smiled faintly. If he was not wrong, it must be Ou Xiaomu and the others.
Seeing this, Fenghua Lu understood without needing to say anything. He said to the outside, "Bring them in!"
"No need."
Before he finished speaking, a cold voice immediately sounded. Then the door was pushed open and five familiar figures walked in one after another.
As Wutian expected, it was Gongsun Haoshu and the others.
Although their appearances had changed greatly, Wutian could still recognize them at a glance.
As soon as they entered the private room, Yun Feiyu looked at Wutian and Yun Yuting and said sarcastically, "Ha! The two of you seem to be quite free! "
Yun Yuting said with a smile, "Senior Brother, you can't blame us. Your efficiency is too low."
"Junior Sister, what's the matter? You've only been with Wutian for a few days, and you're already speaking for him? "
"Don't talk nonsense. I'm just talking about the facts."
"Okay, okay, let's talk later. Let's talk business first." Wutian shook his head and laughed. He quickly got up to smooth things over, then glanced at the five people and said with a smile, "How was it? Did you get it?"
"Who is he?" They did not answer, but looked at Fenghua Lu.
Fenghua Lu got up with a smile and cupped his hands, "I'm Fenghua Lu. I think you must be Wutian and Miss Yun Yuting's companions, the famous Gongsun Haoshu, Ou Xiaomu, Feng Yihui, Yun Feiyu, and Lin Yichen!"
"How do you know?" Gongsun Haoshu frowned and looked at Wutian and Yun Yuting in confusion.
"He's the son of a Saint." Wutian had just opened his mouth when a few murderous auras erupted like volcanoes.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Wutian hurriedly stood between the two and shook his head helplessly, "Can you let me finish?"
Yun Yuting echoed, "That's right. You are too reckless. Fenghua Lu is deeply righteous. He is a completely different type of person from his father. Moreover, he has promised us that he will help us find the real spy."
"Ahem!"
Fenghua Lu's face darkened when he heard this. He coughed dryly and said, "Miss Yuting, can you not talk about my father in front of me?"
Yun Yuting was stunned, then her face turned red. She laughed dryly and said, "I'm sorry! I was so anxious that I forgot. "
Then, Yun Yuting briefly explained the situation.
Only then did Gongsun Haoshu and the others withdraw their murderous auras, and their expressions gradually eased.
