"Fourth Brother, Yinggou … Don't tell me it's my bastard father … Zhang Yude?" Zhang Chulan gritted his teeth.
"…" Xu Si was speechless.
"Tsk, it shouldn't be possible …" Zhang Chulan didn't wait for Xu Si to speak and shook her head to deny her thoughts.
"Although Grandpa Wang's character isn't very good, he didn't target my grandfather back then. We shouldn't have such a big grudge against the Wang Family …"
"Besides …"
Zhang Chulan recalled the various' love moves' he had experienced in the past, and the fact that he couldn't even see Zhang Yude's shadow. He couldn't help but grit his teeth fiercely again.
"One person wiped out the Wang Family, one of the Four Great Families. My dad doesn't look like someone who can do that. That's right … he definitely can't do that!"
"… It seems that you have a lot of opinions about your dad." Xu Si seemed to understand. He didn't ask why Zhang Chulan had such a big opinion about his dad.
"However, you don't have to explain too much. The company has a general understanding of Zhang Yude, so we think that the possibility of him wiping out the Wang Family … is very low."
"After all, long before you stepped into the Inhuman circle, my old man had investigated Zhang Yude, but even after using the company's resources for so many years, his whereabouts are still a mystery."
Zhang Chulan obviously didn't want to talk about Zhang Yude, so he touched his chin thoughtfully and said, "Then … Who did the Wang Family's destruction? Is Yinggou a good person?"
"There are too few reliable clues …"
"Fourth Brother, what you said just now can only confirm that Quan Xing may have some thoughts about the Wang Family, but there is no evidence to prove that Quan Xing is related to this matter. And the strange cause of death of those Wang Family members … can only mean that the strength of the person who did it is not to be underestimated."
"As for the Leifa of Tenshi Province …"
At this point, he raised his eyes and looked at Xu Si, who was sitting at the desk.
"Fourth Brother, this is bullsh * t. Using Leifa to set the Wang Family's ancestral home on fire. There are so many ways to set the Wang Family's ancestral home on fire. Why would the other party do this … Isn't this telling others that they are related to Tenshi Province?"
"After all, someone who has the ability to single-handedly wipe out the Wang Family wouldn't know much about the circle. Don't tell me he doesn't know that lightning magic is too famous. Even if he has the ability to disguise it as a natural phenomenon … people will still be able to distinguish it from the aura."
"Besides …"
"Even Little Zhou himself can't confirm this matter. He concluded that the cause of the fire was Leifa based on the 'high temperature' … Isn't he being led by the nose?"
"You mean …" Xu Si frowned slightly, "The other party wants others to link the destruction of the Wang Family to Tenshi Province, but why would this person …"
"I'm not sure." Zhang Chulan shook his head.
"There are too few clues that the company can find. Or rather, the other party didn't leave any traces at all. The only clue that could be used as a breakthrough in the case is very likely to be deliberately left behind to mislead the other party …"
"Is Little Zhou's speculation not trustworthy at all?" Xu Si was puzzled.
"He only gave one possibility …" Zhang Chulan shrugged helplessly.
"I also think that the possibility that Little Zhou suggested is very low at this juncture …"
"Besides …"
"The company can't even confirm whether the other party is Yinggou or not. How can they make a judgment based on Little Zhou's extremely low probability speculation? Leifa … Even if Little Zhou guessed correctly this time, what should the company do next? Should they go to Mount Longhu and demand an explanation, or should they just keep this matter under wraps?"
At this point, he seemed to have thought of something and immediately asked:
"Fourth Brother, you didn't tell the higher-ups of the company that the Wang Family's ancestral mansion was suspected to have a lightning technique, did you?"
"Hmph, you're underestimating your fourth brother …" Xu Si curled his lips.
"Little Zhou, this is just an 'unfounded' speculation. Besides, this speculation involves Shōichi Tenshi Province …"
"No matter how much of a mess I am, I still know what I'm doing. Reporting this kind of 'unfounded' speculation, do you think I'm the same as Quan Xing who wants the world to be in chaos?"
"That's good …" Zhang Chulan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
"The destruction of the Wang family is too big a matter. Our side is already troublesome enough. If we casually get involved in this kind of thing, it will only make the situation even more difficult in the future."
"It's difficult to move an inch …"
"This kind of situation must not happen on our side. At least before Sister Bao 'er's background is unclear, no matter how many people we have, no matter how many helpers we get … We can only obediently lie on the ground and move forward."
"Feng Yao, the person who leaked the list of thirty-six people in Jia Shen, and those methods known as the Eight Strange Skills …"
As he spoke, Zhang Chulan's eyes once again showed a strong sense of fatigue. In the end, he couldn't help but bite his fingernails, and said:
"One by one, we have to do it one by one …"
Seeing this..,
Xu San couldn't help but reach out to push up his glasses and remind him, "Zhang Chulan, I was wrong before. Wang Ye is indeed a difficult person to deal with. It can't be helped that he has his eyes on you. However, regarding the matter of Bao 'er's background, you'd better be more calm and careful …"
"After all, the situation in the circle has been a little strange recently. This time, considering the destruction of the Wang family, one of the four families, the death of Wang Ai, one of the ten, and the vacancy of the position of the ten … These are not trivial matters."
"If nothing unexpected happens, the company will gradually become busy. Fourth Brother and I can't provide you with help all the time, so as long as it's about Bao 'er … you must be careful, careful, and careful. Don't let anything go wrong again."
"No matter how important that Mei Jinfeng is, Quan Xing's recent direction is not right …"
Hearing this.
Zhang Chulan looked at Xu San, who was no longer angry, and nodded directly. "Third Brother, don't worry. I understand the severity of the matter. I know who I can hand over to and who I can't hand over to …"
"Definitely … definitely won't let anything go wrong again. I can guarantee it with my own life …"
"That's not necessary." Xu San smiled and shook his head.
"The old man believes in you, and so does Fourth Brother. I'm not capable enough to help Bao 'er too much. It's fine as long as you know what you're doing."
"Third Brother …" Zhang Chulan couldn't help but be a little surprised by Xu San's reaction.
However..,
Xu San suddenly changed the topic.
"Well, that's all. Since you've decided not to participate in the Wang family's matters, then let's talk about the work you've fallen behind recently. You're eating our salary … Do you think you're Bao 'er?!"
"…" Zhang Chulan.
On the other side.
Xu Si looked at Zhang Chulan, who was constantly being lectured by Xu San. Although he also had a smile on his face, there was no obvious smile in his eyes.
Was it because Zhang Chulan had interacted with Ying Gou in the Tang Sect that he felt that the sudden appearance of the All-Purpose Sect Leader was too dangerous …?
Or could it be that …
But no matter what the truth was, Zhang Chulan actually paid so little attention to Ying Gou, who had attracted almost everyone's attention, that it was extremely abnormal. He even seemed to be 'keeping his mouth shut' about Ying Gou …
Suddenly appearing …
The behavior of several core members of the All-Purpose Sect changed drastically …
Xia He went to Tenshi Province without any warning …
Zhang Lingyu was expelled from the sect …
Tang Sect …
Clearly, because of the All-Purpose Sect, they had already noticed Feng Bao Bao's uniqueness, but they showed no obvious interest in the matter of 'retaining beauty and longevity' …
Wang family …
Powerful forces …
Leifa …
Perhaps they were not too clear about the situation in the circle …
F * ck!
No matter how they thought about it!
An acquaintance on their side was very suspicious no matter how they looked at it, right?
Zhang Chulan actually did not have any suspicions at all!
Who the f * ck would believe that?!
— — —
A few days later.
In an abandoned factory in Beijing.
"Feng Yao?"
Liu Xiaojiang sat on the steps of the factory. When he heard the real name of Rootless Sheng, he couldn't help but be stunned on the spot.
Then, after a full ten seconds, he finally recovered from his shock and looked at Mei Jinfeng and Xia Liuqing with a puzzled expression.
"Feng Yao, Rootless Sheng is actually this name. That Xu Xin really didn't hide anything and told you and Zhang Chulan everything he knew without reservation?"
Rootless Sheng was not really a Rootless Sheng. Not only did he have a 'root', but he also happened to have the same surname as Feng Bao Bao. At this moment, he thought about the things Zhang Chulan obtained from Qinling …
Could it be that Feng Bao Bao was his Rootless Sheng's biological daughter?!
"The Tang Sect doesn't want any more trouble. Xu Xin also doesn't want to bring any unexpected trouble to the Tang Sect because of his own problems …" Mei Jinfeng nodded dejectedly.
"I don't know Xu Xin's character, but judging from the situation at that time, he didn't seem to have any reason to lie to us. And if he still hid something … sooner or later, someone will come looking for the Tang Sect again."
"Feng Yao …" Xia Liuqing couldn't help but repeat the name of Rootless Sheng.
"We followed the Sect Leader for so long, but we couldn't even compare to the outsiders he met a few times. Now, we even know his name from the mouths of those people …"
"Haha …" Shen Chong leaned against a nearby wall and looked at Xia Liuqing with a smile.
"Old Xia, it seems like you really did follow the wrong person back then …"
"Hmph! It's none of your business! " Xia Liuqing immediately glared fiercely at Shen Chong. "Don't think that I won't dare to do anything to you just because you follow the Sect Leader around all day!"
"Okay, okay, okay … I said too much, okay?" Shen Chong shrugged disapprovingly.
"Hmph!" Xia Liuqing didn't say anything else. After all, he couldn't really lay his hands on Liu Xiaojiang's favorite person. His old body couldn't withstand the 'torment' of the Wang Family.
Liu Xiaojiang didn't mind the conflict between Xia Liuqing and Shen Chong. After thinking carefully, he asked Mei Jinfeng again, "Granny, the name Feng Yao …"
"Apart from you and Xu Xin himself, does anyone else know about it?"
"Especially Xu Xin. Did he mention the name Feng Yao? Was there anyone else who knew about him other than the thirty-six people back then?"
"The Sect Leader's wife should know …" Mei Jinfeng said slowly.
"…" Liu Xiaojiang looked at the absent-minded Mei Jinfeng and finally shook his head helplessly.
"Okay, I was too abrupt. I didn't consider Granny's feelings. Let's wait for this matter. After Granny has adjusted her emotions, we'll determine the truth of Xu Xin's words …"
As he spoke, he slowly got up from the stairs, looked at the several core members present, and said, "Let's go.
"Tomorrow, because of the Wang Family matter, I will meet with the people sent by the higher-ups. Based on the judgment made by them at that time, we'll consider what we should do in the future."
"What should be said …"
"Before Granny and the others came today, I've already explained it to you in detail. As for whether you want to continue to follow me in the future … I'll leave it to you to decide when you go back."
"After all, I don't have much confidence in this stage. After tomorrow, I might even completely break with the company and the higher-ups and become a true Sect Leader in the true sense …"
"If it's just me, I might not be able to provide you with a chance to turn back …"
Saying that, without waiting for the reactions of the members present, he walked out of the factory alone without looking back.
After that, all the members present looked at each other. In the end, only Xia He and Shen Chong remained. They left the abandoned factory without saying anything.
Apart from Xia Liuqing and Mei Jinfeng,
Tu Junfang, Lu Liang, and Ding Chang 'an all stood in silence inside the factory, looking at the backs of the three people with complicated expressions.
"Brother Ding, don't you plan to follow them?" Lu Liang looked at Ding Chang 'an with slight surprise.
"Hmph …" Ding Chang 'an looked at Liu Xiaojiang's back and shook his head with a smile. "Forget it. It's not like I haven't met him in a while. It's hard for me to get anything useful from him …"
"Oh?" Seeing this, Tu Junfang looked at Ding Chang 'an curiously. "I remember that when we were about to meet a few days ago, you seemed to have taken the initiative to meet him because of the Tang Sect. With your personality … what exactly did you see that day?"
Hearing this,
Ding Chang 'an was silent for a moment, then shook his head self-deprecatingly.
"If the Tang Sect's Pill Devour is unsolvable, then on Liu Zhenren, perhaps to any of us, his entire body … is unsolvable."
"… Heh, you've been dealt a blow. Didn't I tell you earlier?" Tu Junfang couldn't help but chuckle.
"It's different …" Ding Chang 'an looked at the factory door with flickering eyes. Even though he denied Tu Junfang's point of view, in the end, he didn't open his mouth to say what was different.
