Chu Yuansheng rarely interfered with the affairs of the Guanzhong torture room, but this time, Chu Yuansheng really didn't want anything to happen to Chu Xiu.
Looking at Yuchi, Chu Yuansheng said in a low voice, "Brother Chu has done so much for the Guanzhong torture room, and now you're going to punish him because of a groundless matter?"
Yuchi smiled bitterly and said, "Hero Chu, you've misunderstood. The Hallmaster and the other lords don't want Brother Chu to be wrongly accused, so they called him to the main hall for questioning. If Brother Chu is innocent, then they will naturally refute the rumors.
Moreover, the Hallmaster only 'invited' Brother Chu here, not arrested him. Otherwise, the people going would not be me, but those guys from the Criminal Division.
Don't worry, Hero Chu. Tomorrow, the Hallmaster and the others will gather at the main hall to discuss this matter. Brother Chu is the face of the Guanzhong torture room, so the Hallmaster and the others will definitely handle this matter carefully. "
Chu Yuansheng nodded and said, "That's good. Since it's like this, Brother Chu can stay at my place today. Is there any problem?"
Yuchi nodded and said, "Of course, Brother Chu is not a prisoner. Naturally, you can stay wherever you want."
Chu Xiu didn't escape halfway. Now that they were in Guanzhong City, Yuchi naturally didn't worry that Chu Xiu would escape.
After Chu Yuansheng brought Chu Xiu to his house, he immediately said to him, "Brother Chu, don't worry. I'll go talk to Brother Guan and guarantee that you'll be fine this time."
Chu Xiu waved his hand and said, "Brother Chu, you don't have to do this. Your identity is special. If you talk to Hallmaster Guan about these things, I'm afraid it won't be good. It'll be easy for others to gossip."
Chu Yuansheng snorted and said, "Let whoever wants to say it. Do you think I'm afraid of them?"
As Chu Kuangge's only son, this legacy could last for a long time. As long as Guan Siyu was still alive, this legacy could also last for a day.
Chu Xiu cupped his hands and said, "Thank you very much, Brother Chu. However, there is one more thing I need to trouble Brother Chu with. I need to trouble Brother Chu to give something to someone."
As he spoke, Chu Xiu took out a box and handed it to Chu Yuansheng.
Chu Yuansheng asked in surprise, "To whom?"
Chu Xiu narrowed his eyes and said, "Give it to Mrs. Guan."
Hearing that Chu Xiu wanted to give the item to Mei Qinglian, Chu Yuansheng couldn't help but frown. "Why are you giving it to her?"
Chu Xiu smiled and said, "It's just a small gift for Mrs. Guan. It's used to please a woman. You have to know that sometimes, a woman's pillow talk is more effective than any words."
Chu Yuansheng curled his lips and said, "Brother Guan isn't the kind of person who is obsessed with women. I guess it's a waste of time for you to give it."
Chu Xiu smiled and didn't speak. He didn't know whether Guan Siyu was obsessed with women or not, but Chu Xiu only knew that Mei Qinglian was not a simple woman.
In fact, it was really meaningless for Chu Yuansheng to go this time. Whether it was Guan Siyu or the other people in the Guanzhong torture room, they could accommodate Chu Yuansheng on small matters, but they wouldn't let Chu Yuansheng mess around on such a big matter.
However, Chu Yuansheng didn't notice this. Holding the thing that Chu Xiu gave him, Chu Yuansheng went straight to the headquarters.
On the way, Chu Yuansheng didn't open the box that Chu Xiu gave him.
Although he was also curious about what was inside, Chu Yuansheng's character was still trustworthy. If Chu Xiu didn't let him open it, he naturally couldn't open it.
When he came to the study, Guan Siyu was still dealing with official business. Seeing that Chu Yuansheng had come, Guan Siyu directly asked before he could speak, "Are you here for Chu Xiu's matter?"
Chu Yuansheng was stunned. He swallowed what he was about to say and just nodded. "It's because of Chu Xiu. Brother Guan, since Chu Xiu joined the Guanzhong torture room, he has made a lot of contributions to the Guanzhong torture room. If you punish him now, I'm afraid that the other disciples of the Guanzhong torture room will be bitterly disappointed."
Guan Siyu shook her head and said, "If it was something else, I can promise you, but Chu Xiu's matter is a bit too big. It must be dealt with strictly. He has made a lot of contributions to the Guanzhong torture room, but if he really offended his superiors and killed his colleagues, I will definitely not forgive him! "
Seeing that Chu Yuansheng still wanted to say something, Guan Siyu shook her head and said, "Alright, Yuansheng, go out. From now on, don't get involved in this matter."
Chu Yuansheng had known Guan Siyu since he was a child, so he naturally knew what kind of character Guan Siyu had.
Hearing that Guan Siyu said it resolutely, Chu Yuansheng knew that he wouldn't relent, so he could only leave resentfully.
After walking a distance away from the study, Chu Yuansheng remembered that he still had something to give to Mei Qinglian.
However, as a man, wasn't it a little too reckless to break into Guan Siyu's house?
Just as Chu Yuansheng was in a dilemma, he happened to see Mei Qinglian walk in from outside. He quickly handed the box to Mei Qinglian and said softly, "Sister-in-law, this is what Chu Xiu wants to give you. I hope you can put in a good word for my brother in front of the hall master."
When he said this, Chu Yuansheng lowered his head. He didn't even dare to look at Mei Qinglian's eyes.
For some reason, he didn't fear Guan Siyu at all, but he was a little afraid of Mei Qinglian.
After taking the box, a strange look appeared in Mei Qinglian's eyes. She slowly said, "As a woman, I shouldn't meddle in Master's affairs. However, no matter what, Chu Xiu is an outstanding talent of the Guanzhong torture room's younger generation. It's better to handle this matter carefully. Don't worry, I'll talk to Master."
Hearing Mei Qinglian say this, Chu Yuansheng also breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly left.
After nightfall, Chu Xiu was sitting in Chu Yuansheng's guest room with a cup of tea in his hand, as if he was waiting for someone.
After a while, a black demonic aura rose in the room out of nowhere. As the demonic aura lingered, Mei Qinglian, who was wearing a red dress, walked out. Her red lips were like fire, and coupled with her cold face, it added to her charm.
However, Mei Qinglian didn't look like an ordinary weak woman. Her aura was extremely powerful, and even Chu Xiu could feel the immense pressure.
Mei Qinglian said calmly, "Chu Xiu, do you know that you're playing with fire now? You discovered my secret and even lured me here. Aren't you afraid that I'll kill you? "
Chu Xiu poured a cup of tea for Mei Qinglian and said slowly, "If a Martial Dao master wants to kill me, he doesn't even need to say a word. He can crush me with a finger. Since I'm fine now, it proves that Madam doesn't want to kill me yet, right? "
Mei Qinglian looked at Chu Xiu with a strange look in her eyes. Actually, she had always been interested in Chu Xiu.
She had seen many young talents in the pugilistic world. She had even seen the 'Little Celestial Master' Zhang Chengzhen before. However, it was the first time that someone from a humble background could reach the heights that Chu Xiu had.
Mei Qinglian's beautiful eyes twitched, and she said calmly, "I won't kill you now, but it doesn't mean that I won't kill you in the next moment. Women are fickle, don't you know? Tell me, how did you know that I'm from the Devil Cult? Also, who are you? Why do you know the totem of the Devil Heart Hall? "
Mei Qinglian took out a piece of silk cloth. There was a complicated and strange pattern drawn on it. This was the totem of the Kunlun Devil Cult's Devil Heart Hall. Other than the orthodox inheritors of the Kunlun Devil Cult, no one else knew about this thing.
Chu Xiu said in a deep voice, "There are many people who practice Devil Arts in this world. However, to have such pure Devil Qi and hide it secretly, other than the Kunlun Devil Cult, I can't think of anyone else. If Madam is from the Kunlun Devil Cult, you'll naturally be able to recognize this thing. If you can't, I have other excuses to deal with it.
As for why I know about this thing, it's very simple. It's because I'm also a disciple of the Kunlun Devil Cult.
The Devil is formless, and the Great Dao is boundless. The Holy Fire Refines the Heart, and the Devil Flame Devours the Sky!
I inherited the technique of the Devil Heart Hall's Hall Master, 'Nine Transformation Devil Heart', Nangong Wuming. Of course, it's not surprising that I know about this. "
Hearing Chu Xiu's words, Mei Qinglian was not as shocked as Mr. Lu in the past. This was because she had already guessed in this aspect. She had even tried to test Chu Xiu before.
After all, Chu Xiu had too many Devil Arts. If he had obtained them all by chance, it would be too much of a coincidence. If not for the fact that Chu Xiu also knew the techniques of Buddhism and Taoism, Mei Qinglian could even confirm that Chu Xiu was from the Devil Cult.
Later, after Chu Xiu obtained the Heavenly Demon Dance, Mei Qinglian had also tried to test Chu Xiu's attitude towards the Kunlun Devil Cult. After all, whether it was the Righteous Dao or the Rogue Cultivators in Jianghu, most people did not have a good impression of the Devil Cult. However, Chu Xiu was different. He did not seem to have a bad impression of the Kunlun Devil Cult.
Mei Qinglian suddenly thought of what Chu Xiu had done in Eastern Qi. She asked, "Have you been in contact with the people of the Phaseless Devil Sect?"
Chu Xiu nodded and said, "Yes, Mr. Lu from the Phaseless Devil Sect helped me a lot."
Mei Qinglian sneered and said, "Mr. Lu? Are you talking about that kid Lu Jin? Their Phaseless Demon Sect was extremely loyal to the Kunlun Demon Sect. Even now, they were still shouting 'Saint Sect' as though they had gone mad. You can't be thinking that I'm the same as those fellows from the Phaseless Demon Sect, selflessly helping you after hearing that you're a disciple of the Kunlun Demon Sect, right?
I forgot to tell you that although I have a relationship with the Kunlun Devil Cult, I am not a direct descendant of the Kunlun Devil Cult. I am a member of the Maiden Demon Sect. How can you expect a sect that has been destroyed to be loyal to the Kunlun Devil Cult?
Not to mention that you are just a lucky person who accidentally obtained the inheritance of the Kunlun Devil Cult. Even if you are the successor of the Patriarch Dugu, why should I help you selflessly? "
Chu Xiu raised his eyebrows. He did not expect that Mei Qinglian's real identity was the same as Mr. Lu and the others. She was not a direct descendant of the Kunlun Devil Cult.
The Maiden Demon Sect was one of the vassal sects of the Kunlun Devil Cult in the past. Just like the Yue Nu Palace, there were only female disciples in the entire sect.
However, the Maiden Demon Sect was more unlucky. The Phaseless Devil Sect was only hidden in the dark. Their own strength was still very strong, and they were still one of the seven sects and eight schools.
However, the Maiden Demon Sect had disappeared without a trace a hundred years ago. Even the pugilistic world thought that the Maiden Demon Sect had completely lost its inheritance. They did not expect that there was still a Mei Qinglian.
