PS: It's a new week, I'm begging for recommendation votes.
Chu Li slowly walked into the hall.
There were only two people sitting on the armchairs in the hall. Fu Mengshan smiled and waved his hand. "Little Chu, come here. What's the problem?"
Chu Li said in a low voice, "Commander, I'm here to ask if we're going to attack the High Duke's Public House!"
"Attack the High Duke's Public House?" Fu Mengshan was startled. The smile on his face disappeared, and he said seriously, "Little Chu, what are you talking about?!"
Xu Huande asked in a deep voice, "Where did you hear that from?"
Chu Li said, "Six protectors of the Yi Public House died in three days. Was it not done by the secret guardians of the imperial house?"
"Six protectors died?!" Fu Mengshan and Xu Huande's expressions changed slightly as they looked at each other.
Chu Li scoffed. "The Protectors of the High Duke's Public House are not to be trifled with. Normal people are no match for them. Moreover, normal people do not dare to provoke the High Duke's Public House now. Other than the Secret Guardians Hall, which faction would have the guts to do so?"
"Young Chu," Fu Mengshan frowned and said, "This is also the first time I've heard of this … This is really a big deal. Who would be so daring?"
Chu Li said, "I know that the Secret Guardians Hall has always been displeased with the High Duke's Public House, and they've been making things difficult for us, but I didn't think that they would be so vicious … Is this revenge on me? Since they can't kill me, they can't kill the Second Lady, so they're taking revenge on the Yi Public House!"
"Little Chu, don't talk nonsense!" Fu Mengshan waved his hand and stood up with a gloomy face. He paced back and forth in the hall with his hands behind his back.
Xu Huande scoffed. "You suspected the Secret Guardians Hall the moment you heard the news, didn't you?"
Chu Li said, "This is too much of a coincidence, I can't help but suspect it! Commanders, if you have any problems, just come at me. Why do you have to seek revenge on the Yi Public House? "
Xu Huande said impatiently, "Shut up. If they really wanted to deal with you, why would they need to take revenge on the High Duke's Public House? Moreover, do you think they can just kill the Protectors of the High Duke's Public House?"
The Secret Guardians Hall was responsible for keeping an eye on the High Duke's Public House, but they did not have the authority to kill anyone. Stirring up trouble and disrupting the High Duke's Public House was already the most they could do. They had never assassinated the Protectors of the High Duke's Public House.
Chu Li pretended to be suspicious and stared at him.
He just wanted to get some information out of them.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Xu Huande said coldly, "I don't have time to lie to you!"
Chu Li said, "The Secret Guardians Hall must know who did it, right? Why didn't you tell me beforehand? "
"Why should I tell you?" Xu Huande said coldly, "Do you think you're the commander of the Secret Guardians Hall?"
Chu Li sighed. "Commander Xu, I'm disappointed by your words."
"Alright, alright." Fu Mengshan waved his hand and said with a smile, "Regarding this matter, I really don't know. Old Xu, go and take a look and see if there's any information on this matter."
"Alright." Xu Huande glared at Chu Li before he stood up and left the main hall.
Fu Mengshan said, "Young Chu, come, have a seat."
Chu Li understood Fu Mengshan's thoughts. The Holy Church of Light had become his sore point.
Chu Li did not want to deal with the Holy Church of Light just yet. He decided to think about it after the Eldest Master's wedding. If he provoked them, the Eldest Master's wedding would be even more exciting.
"Thank you very much, Commander." Chu Li sat on an armchair.
Fu Mengshan said, "Young Chu, tell me, how did you recognize the disciple of the Holy Church of Light?"
Chu Li shook his head and smiled. "It's really a feeling, I can't describe it."
"You …" Fu Mengshan pointed at him.
He knew Chu Li was not telling the truth, but he could not force him.
He knew Chu Li very well and knew his background. As the chief of Glory's Will Courtyard, he was best at eliminating traitors. Chu Li actually said that he found the disciple of the Holy Church of Light by luck. It would be strange if Fu Mengshan believed him!
A moment later, Xu Huande strode in and scoffed with a sullen face. "There's really no news!"
"Hmm — —?" The smile on Fu Mengshan's face disappeared.
Xu Huande said, "I think there's news. Unfortunately, it's a little slow, so it hasn't been sent back yet. Chu Li, how do you know?"
"Is the news from the Secret Guardians Hall so slow?"
"It's already very fast!" Xu Huande scoffed. "A messenger pigeon is faster than a galloping horse."
Fu Mengshan said, "Young Chu, don't be anxious. I believe there will be news soon!"
Chu Li said, "The news doesn't spread as fast as the High Duke's Public House. Commander, Commander Xu, isn't this embarrassing the Emperor?"
"How did the High Duke's Public House spread the news?"
"Hehe …"
"It's that Jiang Kuai, right?" Xu Huande scoffed.
Chu Li raised his eyebrows. They actually knew Jiang Kuai.
"You have a good helper." Xu Huande said, "But not everyone has Jiang Kuai's Light-body Technique!"
Chu Li smiled. "There should be many Light-body Technique Masters in the Secret Guardians Hall, right?"
"There are, but they don't have Light-body Technique Masters like Jiang Kuai." Xu Huande scoffed. "Do you think that Light-body Technique Masters like that can be easily won over?"
Chu Li nodded.
Light-body Technique Masters often had a kind of arrogance. They roamed the world and came and went as they pleased. Most of them were used to being free and unfettered. It was fate that he was able to recruit Jiang Kuai.
"Chu Li, you have to hurry up with the Holy Church of Light." Fu Mengshan sighed and shook his head. "The Emperor is also very anxious. If they really cause trouble, the Secret Guardians Hall will be too embarrassed."
"I don't think it's that easy to make a move on the Holy Church of Light." Chu Li said, "They have a big plan."
"Can you guess what they are planning?" Fu Mengshan's spirit was lifted.
Chu Li shook his head. "I can't guess, but I think it's not to assassinate the Imperial Crown Prince."
Fu Mengshan patted the armrest of the armchair and fell into deep thought.
"What other plans do they have?" Xu Huande scoffed. "It can't be to assassinate the Imperial Crown Prince, right?"
Chu Li said, "Commander, Commander Xu, this is just my personal speculation. It may not be accurate."
"Your thinking is indeed reasonable." Fu Mengshan said slowly. "If they really want to assassinate the Imperial Crown Prince, why didn't they do it before? What do they want to do? "
Chu Li suddenly said, "Commander Xu, the Secret Guardians Hall is involved in this matter with the High Duke's Public House, right?"
Xu Huande was stunned by the question and hurriedly said, "What nonsense are you talking about!"
Chu Li said, "The High Duke's Public House will take revenge on this matter. Tell the two commanders in advance that if there are people from the Secret Guardians Hall, it's best to retreat first so that they don't accidentally hurt our own people!"
Xu Huande frowned. "How do you want to take revenge?"
Chu Li said, "I'll do what I can."
"So you'll do your best?" Fu Mengshan smiled. "Young Chu, don't make it out of hand."
"Commander," Chu Li smiled. "If the High Duke's Public House doesn't take revenge, their deterrence will disappear completely. I'm afraid the world will be in chaos and that will be out of hand!"
Fu Mengshan and Xu Huande looked at each other, their hearts were heavy.
Chu Li smiled. "But don't worry, Commanders. I won't kill innocent people!"
Fu Mengshan frowned and did not say anything.
Xu Huande said, "If there are people from the Secret Guardians Hall involved, are you going to kill the secret guardians? You have to know our rules. You're not allowed to kill each other! "
Chu Li smiled and shook his head. "How can I break the rules? … It can't be that the two commanders ordered this, right? "
Xu Huande glared at him. "You're a member of the Secret Guardians Hall now!"
