At this moment, Zhenlei Duomo had already guessed Tan Xiu's identity. She was pleasantly surprised, but her expression was indescribably complicated. One of the reasons she came to Mist Source Island was to understand the situation of the mysterious Eastern Country's cultivators. It would be best if she could inquire about the woman who had raised and taught her.
"Do you know my identity?"
Zhenlei Duomo looked at Tan Xiu with vigilance and asked.
"You're the famous Mexican Mafia's second-in-command, the rumored Demoness with both wisdom and strength. How could I not know you?" Tan Xiu said with a smile. "It's just that I didn't expect to meet you on this Mist Source Island. It seems that there are many people who covet the resources of Huaxia!"
"Since you know me, then please tell me who you are," said Zhenlei Duomo coldly.
"Tan Xiu."
Tan Xiu said lightly.
Zhenlei Duomo wasn't satisfied. A name meant nothing to her. What she wanted to know was Tan Xiu's identity. Moreover, she realized that this guy named Tan Xiu definitely didn't appear here by chance.
"You schemed against me?"
Tang Xiu let out a hollow laugh. He indeed schemed against Zhenlei Duomo, but Miao Wenlei and Miao Hengfu had long been dead. The dead could not tell the truth, so he naturally didn't want to admit it. Furthermore, he also felt a bit regretful. Miao Hengfu was strong in appearance but weak in reality. He didn't even have a martial arts grandmaster under him, so he couldn't bring any losses to the Reston Mafia. Otherwise, he could have killed two birds with one stone and solved more troubles.
"Zhenlei Duomo, I don't know what you mean by that. We just happened to pass by and didn't expect to see such a good show. However, I would like to ask you, who gave you the guts to kill a citizen of Hua Xia in our territory? "
"How could those trash kill so many of my men near my camp?" Zhenlei Duomo angrily said. "Do all the Chinese like to play the fool?"
Ring, ring, ring …
Tan Xiu's communicator suddenly rang. Under the angry gaze of Zhenlei Duomo, he answered the phone and said, "What's the matter?"
Half a minute later …
Tan Xiu's expression turned strange. He grunted and hung up the call. Then, he looked at Zhenlei Duomo with a faint smile and said, "Alright! I admit that I sent people to do this, but I did it out of goodwill. It was all for your own good, for the good of your Reston Mafia! "
Zhenlei Duomo angrily shouted, "You killed my men and said it was for my own good? What nonsense are you talking about? "
"If my guess is correct, you still don't know what happened in the village where you were stationed before," said Tan Xiu with a straight face. Similarly, I guess you haven't received the news about what happened to the dozen or so foreign forces last night. But what I can tell you is that using the lives of some ordinary people to help you and save the Reston Organisation from disaster, this is a kindness to you. In other words, I'm your savior. "
"What is it?"
Zhenlei Duomo was stunned. She looked at the serious expression on Tan Xiu's face and couldn't wrap her head around it. Since he admitted that he was plotting against her, how did he suddenly become her savior? She had lost six of her men!
"Are you spouting nonsense? Or are you deliberately teasing me? "
Tan Xiu sneered. "It seems that your Reston Organisation's intel is really bad. Let me tell you something. Last night, the third most dangerous organization in the world, the Stygian Club, attacked more than a dozen foreign forces. Some of the weaker forces were almost uprooted. The world's largest organization, Pyramid, launched a fierce counterattack against the Stygian Club. The other two forces that were stationed in the village at the same time as you also suffered a lot of losses. I picked your Reston Organisation and let you leave there temporarily to avoid being attacked, right? "
"What? The Stygian Club? "
Zhenlei Duomo's expression drastically changed and a deep dread could be seen in her eyes. As a cultivator, she naturally knew some inside stories that ordinary people didn't know.
But …
How dare the Stygian Club?
"If my guess is correct, the foreign forces in the entire Mist Source Island have begun to secretly unite." Tan Xiu sneered. "The Stygian Club is too ambitious, and it's like poking the hornet's nest this time. "Next will be a life-and-death struggle between the various forces and the Stygian Club. But I pulled your Reston Organisation out of this mess. Don't tell me I'm wrong? "
"This …"
Zhenlei Duomo felt that Tan Xiu was twisting words and forcing logic, but she couldn't refute him. If what he said was true, then she was really lucky. After all, the Stygian Club was a terrifying force that the Reston Organisation she belonged to couldn't be compared to.
No!
To be precise, even a hundred Reston Organisations couldn't compare to the Stygian Club's terrifying power.
Zhenlei Duomo took a deep breath and slowly said, "Mr. Tang, I haven't received any news about what you said yet. Since we're not enemies, I have no intention of becoming enemies with the Chinese cultivators. Then, I hope we won't be enemies in the future. "
"One more enemy is better than one more friend." Tan Xiu smiled indifferently. "If you're willing to leave Mist Source Island with the Reston Organisation's people, I guarantee we won't be enemies."
Zhenlei Duomo frowned and said, "Whether our Reston Organisation's people leave Mist Source Island or not has nothing to do with you, Mr. Tang. Don't tell me you can represent the Chinese government? "
Tang Xiu directly took out the green book, flashed it and said, "Unfortunately, I can indeed represent the Chinese government. Having this thing is equivalent to having official rights. I personally brought some people to Mist Source Island to solve the problem here. I can tell you that all the foreign forces will become the enemies of our country if they continue to stay on Mist Source Island. They're also my enemies. "
A cold glint flashed in Zhenlei Duomo's eyes, but she still instantly restrained her aura. She seriously observed Tan Xiu a few times and finally slowly said, "You can leave Mist Source Island if you can answer a question of mine and I'm satisfied with the answer."
"Say it!"
Tan Xiu could see that Zhenlei Duomo was unwilling, but he knew that she wouldn't dare to be his enemy.
"Mr. Tang may represent the Chinese government, but you're a cultivator after all. You should know about the Chinese cultivation world, right?" asked Zhenlei Duomo. "I want to ask you about someone who's also a cultivator."
"Who is it?" asked Tan Xiu in astonishment.
"I'm not particularly clear about her situation." Zhenlei Duomo frowned. "I only know that her name is Yan. She was in her twenties 20 years ago, but she should be in her 40s or 50s now."
40 or 50s?
Yan?
"I'm sorry, I've never heard of this person." Tan Xiu shook his head.
A disappointed look appeared in Zhenlei Duomo's eyes as she bitterly said, "Since Mr. Tang doesn't know, then I can only consult other cultivators in China. To tell you the truth, she supported me when I was growing up and later taught me a cultivation technique. But I lost contact with her many years ago. "
"I've never heard of this person you mentioned." Tan Xiu nodded lightly. "I don't know much about the situation in China's cultivation world. Many cultivators live incognito or hide in famous mountains and rivers. Unless they want to, it's very difficult for others to know their existence."
Zhenlei Duomo didn't want to spend more time with Tan Xiu. Since she couldn't get the information she wanted, she immediately cupped her fists and said, "If that's the case, then I'll take my leave."
Tan Xiu didn't stop her. He watched her leave and was about to call Zidan and Ye Shisan to leave. Suddenly, Zidan came to Tan Xiu's side and whispered, "Boss, you seem to have forgotten someone."
"Who is it?" asked Tan Xiu, puzzled.
"The founder of the Everlasting Feast Hall, the former Big Boss," said Zidan.
Gu Yan 'er?
Tan Xiu stared blankly and his expression slightly changed. His precious disciple should be in her twenties more than 20 years ago, and her name also had the word "Yan" in it. Could there be some connection between them?
"Go and call her back."
Tan Xiu directly sat cross-legged and took out a pen and paper from his interspatial ring. Just as he was about to draw Gu Yan 'er's portrait, he suddenly recalled something and patted his forehead. He took out his mobile phone, opened the photo album, and selected Gu Yan' er's photo. A minute later, Zhenlei Duomo stood in front of Tan Xiu with a vigilant face.
"Is there anything else?"
Zhenlei Duomo was afraid of Tan Xiu, but she wasn't afraid of him. She knew very well that she was not Tan Xiu's opponent, but he wouldn't be able to stop her if she wanted to escape.
Tan Xiu handed over his mobile phone and lightly said, "Look at this photo. Is it this woman?"
Zhenlei Duomo took the mobile phone with a confused look. When her eyes fell on the photo, her pupils suddenly contracted and her body violently trembled a few times.
"Yes, it's her."
Zhenlei Duomo's voice was a bit trembling. She clearly remembered this face. It was the face that was deeply engraved in her heart. She was so beautiful and unparalleled in the past, and she was so cold and elegant. She didn't know what was holy and pure before, but she understood the meaning of the word "holy and pure" the first time she saw her.
Tan Xiu raised his hand to touch the bridge of his nose and secretly smiled wryly inside. He knew that Gu Yan 'er's footprints had been to every corner of the Earth, but he didn't expect that she had left such a legacy in Mexico.
"Why are you looking for her?"
Tan Xiu was silent for a moment and then slowly asked.
Zhenlei Duomo reluctantly moved her eyes away from the photo and said with an irrepressible excitement, "She's my benefactor, my Master, and half a mother to me. I made a mistake in front of her that year. I shouldn't have killed a bad guy, so she left and didn't allow me to step into China. But … I miss her! "
Upon hearing this, Tan Xiu stared blankly and immediately guessed Gu Yan 'er's thoughts in the past. She would never despise Zhenlei Duomo for killing someone, because who didn't have hands stained with blood from the Immortal World?
Perhaps!
It was because of her body at that time!
