The Third Prince's residence.
In a courtyard, the red-robed Yao Xuelian was standing under a tree. This tree was very strange. It was completely blood-red.
From the trunk to the branches to the leaves, everything was blood-red, as if it had just been dyed with blood.
If you looked closely, you would see that the Yao Xuelian had touched the tree lightly with a finger, which was why it had been dyed red.
This tree had become the Yao Xuelian's plaything.
At this time, a figure walked in. It was none other than Wu Qigang.
Wu Qigang arrived behind the Yao Xuelian and bowed. "Holy Emissary Lotus Seed is looking for me."
Only then did the Yao Xuelian turn around. Her eyes were still as cold as ever. She looked at Wu Qigang and said, "I'm bored, so I wanted to have a drink with you. Can't I?"
"Haha, Holy Emissary, treating me to a drink is an honor. How can I refuse?" Wu Qigang laughed.
The Yao Xuelian waved her hand and gestured for him to sit down.
There was a small stone table next to her.
After the two of them sat down, the Yao Xuelian waved her hand. An exquisite red wine bottle appeared in her hand, and two red wine cups appeared on the table.
The Yao Xuelian seemed to have a special liking for the color red. Everything was red.
Even the wine she poured out was red. It looked a bit strange.
The Yao Xuelian raised her wine cup and gestured to Wu Qigang. Then she said, "The higher-ups have already informed us to act as soon as possible."
"Currently, we've confirmed that Wu Qihong is a member of the Righteous Alliance. Your father and brother are also suspects. But the higher-ups aren't sure yet. They've been urging us to investigate thoroughly so that we can close the net."
"How's your investigation of your father and brother coming along?"
Wu Qigang shook his head. His expression was heavy. "I'm sorry, Holy Emissary. My father is an extremely cautious person, so it's difficult for me to get close to him."
"Whenever I try to fish for information, my father will be alert and won't say much. I also don't dare to ask too much, lest I expose myself."
"And I feel that my father is starting to suspect me, so he seems to be avoiding me. Every time he sees me, he only talks about trivial matters. "
"As for my elder brother, he's very reclusive and rarely meets guests. It's very difficult even for me to meet him."
"So, I can only start with Wu Qihong now. But Wu Qihong has always been my sworn enemy, so it's hard for me to deal with him. "
"This matter is indeed very difficult, so please give me a little more time. I will definitely find a way to investigate this matter."
Yao Xuelian's face darkened. He said coldly, "I can give you time, but I'm afraid that the higher-ups can't wait for you. You'd better get this done as soon as possible. Otherwise, I won't be able to buy time for you."
"If it doesn't work, I'll capture Wu Qihong first, and then we'll interrogate him strictly."
"Have you found out where Wu Qihong's real body is hiding?"
Wu Qigang nodded and said, "Yes, I've found out. Sacred Emissary, I understand. I'll investigate this matter as soon as possible. "
Yao Xuelian nodded slightly and didn't say anything else. Instead, he raised the wine glass in his hand.
Then, he straightforwardly drained it first.
Wu Qigang picked up the wine glass, but he looked a little hesitant. He didn't drink it immediately.
An undetectable light flashed in the depths of his eyes.
Yao Xuelian finished the wine in his glass and looked coldly at Wu Qigang. He said, "Why aren't you drinking?"
"Are you afraid that I've poisoned your wine? Or are you saying that you don't give me face? The first time I invited you to drink, you refused to drink?"
"Haha, yes, Sacred Emissary. I'm really afraid that you've poisoned my wine," Wu Qigang said jokingly.
Although he said it in a joking tone, Wu Qigang sounded a little serious when he said it.
He was only half-joking.
Yao Xuelian laughed coldly and said, "The Bloodbath Alliance won't kill our own people. You're thinking too much. As a Blood Disciple, I only listen to the orders of my superiors. "
"If the Bloodbath Alliance wants you dead, you won't be able to live either."
"In this world, there's no one that the Bloodbath Alliance can't kill. It's just a matter of whether the Bloodbath Alliance wants to or not."
Wu Qigang smiled and shook the wine in his hand. He said, "Sacred Emissary, you're right. If the Bloodbath Alliance wants me dead, I won't be able to live either."
"Even if I'm in front of you, I'm afraid I won't have a chance to live either."
"Sacred Emissary, you suddenly invited me to drink, which makes me feel inexplicably nervous."
"Hahaha, Sacred Emissary Lotus Seed, are you sure there's no poison in the wine?"
Yes.
Yao Xuelian's face turned even colder. He glared at Wu Qigang and said in an extremely cold voice, "What do you mean by that?"
"Are you doubting me? Or are you doubting the Bloodbath Alliance? Or do you have ulterior motives? That's why you're thinking this way."
"If you're working for the Bloodbath Alliance wholeheartedly, why would you have so many thoughts? Doesn't this mean that you're not pure at all? Is that why you're so careful and vigilant, even against your own people?"
"If you're afraid that there's poison in the wine, you can choose not to drink it."
"I'm afraid that you'll waste this good wine of mine."
Wu Qigang didn't hesitate and simply put down the wine glass.
He smiled at Yao Xuelian and said, "Hahaha, Sacred Emissary Lotus Seed, don't be angry. I'm just joking with you."
"But since Sacred Emissary Lotus Seed doesn't want to drink, then let's not drink. I don't want to get into a conflict with Sacred Emissary Lotus Seed because of a cup of wine. That would be a sin."
"Sacred Emissary Lotus Seed, you won't be angry if I don't drink it, right?"
"Don't misunderstand. I don't mean to disrespect you, Sacred Emissary Lotus Seed, and I don't mean to distrust the Bloodbath Alliance."
Hmm?
Wu Qigang's action made Yao Xuelian frown. A strange light flashed in his cold eyes.
The two of them looked at each other in the eye, and sparks flew in the air between them.
Hmph!
Yao Xuelian suddenly snorted and waved his hand. Suddenly, a spatial barrier enveloped this place, completely isolating it from the outside world.
This kind of isolation was so terrifying that even Soul Transmissions couldn't be transmitted.
Red vines gushed out from under Wu Qigang's feet like vipers, wrapping around Wu Qigang. Soon, Wu Qigang was completely wrapped up, leaving only his eyes and mouth exposed. The rest of his body was tightly bound.
Wu Qigang couldn't struggle or move for a moment.
"Sacred Emissary Lotus Seed, what is the meaning of this?" Wu Qigang asked angrily.
"Don't tell me that just because I didn't drink your wine and didn't give you enough face, you're going to do this? This is against the rules."
"We're both members of the Bloodbath Alliance. Although you're a Sacred Emissary, I'm also a leader. My status isn't low."
"It's not appropriate for you to treat me like this."
Yao Xuelian sneered. He looked at Wu Qigang and said, "Why are you still pretending?"
"Don't you know what you've done? Do you think the Bloodbath Alliance doesn't know?"
"Since you dared to betray the Bloodbath Alliance, you should have expected this day to come."
"Our Blood Killer Alliance cannot tolerate traitors. Otherwise, why do you think the Blood Killer Alliance sent me here? Is it really just to deal with a mere member of the Righteous Alliance? Is there a need to mobilize so many people?"
"My main mission here is to deal with you, Wu Qigang."
"You don't have to pretend anymore. You don't have to hide anything. You don't have to try to explain anything. The Bloodbath Alliance has never been wrong. We won't wrong anyone."
After hearing Yao Xuelian's words, Wu Qigang didn't seem too surprised.
He smiled casually, but didn't try to explain or refute anything.
Since he had already said this, there was no point in saying anything else. It would just be a waste of time.
So, there was no need to say anything more.
What he needed to think about now was how to struggle out of this place and how to escape.
Yao Xuelian continued, "Wu Qigang, if you want to die a quick death, then cooperate with me honestly. Answer whatever I ask you."
"If you cooperate with me, I can give you a quick death. I can also kill you without implicating the innocent."
"If you don't cooperate, then the situation is hard to say."
"Hahaha!" Wu Qigang laughed and looked at Yao Xuelian fearlessly. His face was very calm, as if he didn't realize that he was in a desperate situation.
After laughing, Wu Qigang said, "Are you threatening me? You've been with me for a while. Don't you know what kind of person I am?"
"Do I look like I'm scared? Who can threaten me? I've always been a person who doesn't yield to force or persuasion."
"Do you think it's useful to threaten me with this?"
"To be honest, you're just a third-step Ancient Saint. I'm afraid you don't have the ability to do as you please in the Witchcraft Realm."
"The Witchcraft Realm is not a place where the Bloodbath Alliance can do whatever you want. If things get out of hand, I'm afraid the Bloodbath Alliance won't be able to deal with it. "
"This isn't the Endless Universe Ocean. This is the Great Path Sacred Realm, the Witchcraft Realm. This is the territory of the human race. Since when did the Bloodbath Alliance have the right to do as you please?"
"Don't you think it's ridiculous to use this to threaten me?"
After hearing Wu Qigang's words, Yao Xuelian's face became even more gloomy and cold.
Especially those eyes, they were as cold as a cold blade, piercing people to the point of feeling uncomfortable.
"Are you not afraid of death?" Yao Xuelian asked coldly.
Wu Qigang laughed heartily and said, "I'm a hot-blooded man. Why would I be afraid of death? I, Wu Qigang, am not afraid of death."
"Are the members of the Righteous Alliance all so unafraid of death?" Yao Xuelian asked again.
'Righteous Alliance' Wu Qigang shook his head and laughed, "Saint Envoy Lotus Seed, I think you're completely mistaken."
"I've heard of the Righteous Alliance, but I'm not one of them. I admire the Righteous Alliance, but it's a pity that I didn't have the chance to join them. That's one of my regrets. "
"Ah, it's an honor to be considered a member of the Righteous Alliance by you, Lotus Seed. Before I die, I'll have fulfilled one of my wishes. "
"Hmph, still pretending. Do you think I'll believe your nonsense? You're clearly a member of the Righteous Alliance, and you're still pretending." Yao Xuelian naturally didn't believe him.
Wu Qigang said helplessly, "It's up to you whether you believe me or not. If you're willing to believe me, you'll believe me even if I don't say it. If you're not willing to believe me, you won't believe me even if I say it ten thousand times. "
"Trying to change a person's mindset is a thankless task."
"That's why I usually don't do things like this. As long as you're happy."
