When he pushed open the door, there was no one there.
Who on earth was that just now?
The Alliance Leader stared silently at the outside of the door. Suddenly, he remembered that there was still Mrs. Liu in the room. He simply put this matter aside for the time being, closed the door and turned towards the couch.
Unexpectedly, when he looked down, he found that she had fainted.
The drugged incense in the room gradually dissipated the moment he opened the door before, but he really didn't expect that the charming lady on the bed would be knocked out.
He twitched the corner of his mouth and gave a helpless smile. Just then, the door was pushed open. Wang Chengyang, wearing a brown robe, gasped and looked at the Alliance Leader. Realizing his overstepping, he quickly took a step back, stood outside the door, leaned forward slightly and bowed his head, saying, "Alliance Leader."
The Alliance Leader turned to look at him, a bit puzzled, and said, "Guard Wang, come in."
Wang Chengyang looked up and walked in. His gaze fell on Su Xiaoliu who was unconscious on the couch. Combined with the faint smell of drugged incense when he first opened the door, his eyes darkened. It seemed that he understood something. He looked up at the Alliance Leader and said seriously, "Alliance Leader, did someone try to sneak attack just now?" Just now, someone also tried to blow drugged incense to knock him out, but he found out. He chased in the direction the person fled and ended up at the Alliance Leader's residence.
The Alliance Leader looked up at him and chuckled, saying, "You go down later and ask someone to investigate and find out who did this. There must be a spy hiding in this mountain villa." After a moment, he added, "It's so late. What do you want to see me about, Guard Wang?"
Su Xiaoliu closed her eyes and pretended to be unconscious, pricking up her ears to listen to the conversation between the two.
Actually, the person who blew the drugged incense just now was Bai Qing. It was just to make the Alliance Leader think that she had accidentally inhaled the drugged incense and fainted, so as to attract Wang Chengyang and try to eavesdrop on some information.
Wang Chengyang looked at the Alliance Leader and said in a low voice, "Alliance Leader, that lord... said that he has found out who the orphan of the previous Alliance Leader is. He said that before he solves this matter, you should continue to act as the Alliance Leader and wait for his orders."
Su Xiaoliu only felt a "buzz" in her head.
What? Was Zuo Jinzhi actually... just a substitute Alliance Leader?
Seeing that the Alliance Leader didn't show any reaction, Wang Chengyang continued, "Also, Gu Rongxue of the Gu family is not dead, but his memory has been erased. He even thinks that he is Gu Fangxie, the eldest son of the Gu family who was executed by the court a few years ago. The lord has decided to use Gu Rongxue to get rid of the orphan of the previous Alliance Leader to prevent future troubles."
The Alliance Leader nodded, looked at Wang Chengyang, and said, "Okay. Did that lord tell you when he would come to see me?"
Wang Chengyang looked up at the Alliance Leader and said in a low voice, "He didn't say for the time being."
Su Xiaoliu listened blankly. All this in front of her couldn't help but shock her.
Sure enough, Gu Rongxue was being used. Moreover, the person who used him seemed to be using Zuo Jinzhi as well. This person was manipulating people at will just to get rid of the orphan of the previous Alliance Leader? The child of the previous Alliance Leader was actually still alive... Could it be that the bloodshed of the previous Alliance Leader's family was related to this mastermind who used Gu Rongxue and Zuo Jinzhi? Who on earth was this person?
Moreover, if Zuo Jinzhi was just a substitute, it meant that...
With a shock in her mind, Su Xiaoliu secretly said in her heart: There is no Alliance Leader in the current martial world.
The sound of footsteps came from afar. Wang Chengyang and the Alliance Leader both paused at the same time. They looked at the door warily.
"Yuner, Yuner!" Zhong Fengyue's voice sounded not far away.
Wang Chengyang glanced at the Alliance Leader, pursed his lips and said, "Alliance Leader, it's Liu Ziyi, the eldest disciple of that Hall Master Sun!"
The Alliance Leader was stunned for a moment, frowned slightly, and looked back at Su Xiaoliu lying on the bed. There were still two blushes on her pretty face. She was sleeping soundly.
I'm afraid the main character is coming to the door.
The Alliance Leader pursed his lips, looked at Wang Chengyang, quickly walked to the wall, reached out and gently turned the vat with the turtle in it. A hidden door slowly appeared. The Alliance Leader whispered, "Leave from here first."
Wang Chengyang nodded and walked in quickly with the Alliance Leader.
After the two walked in, the door of the secret passage slowly closed.
Su Xiaoliu on the bed opened her eyes. She curved her lips, got out of bed carefully, then pushed open the door and looked outside.
As soon as she looked up, she met those ink-like jade eyes. Zhong Fengyue curved his lips, and his handsome face was full of smiles.
"My lady, I'm here to pick you up."
Su Xiaoliu was startled. She let out a sigh of relief, quickly turned around to close the door of the Alliance Leader's room, grabbed Zhong Fengyue's sleeve and walked quickly.
"The Alliance Leader and Wang Chengyang left through the hidden door. If you had come a bit later, I would have been in danger." Su Xiaoliu whispered as she walked.
They walked into the deep courtyard with a crescent moon hanging high.
Zhong Fengyue looked down at Su Xiaoliu and smiled, "My lady, did he touch you anywhere?"
Su Xiaoliu blinked her eyes, a bit puzzled. She looked at Zhong Fengyue and shook her head, saying, "What do you mean did he touch me anywhere?" As soon as the words came out, Su Xiaoliu suddenly realized. Her face blushed slightly, and she whispered, "It's inevitable to be touched a bit when trying to get information..."
A hint of coldness flashed through Zhong Fengyue's eyes quickly. He looked at Su Xiaoliu with his ink-like jade eyes, curved his lips and said softly, "If he touched you, I'll cut off his other hand."
Although it was said softly, it made Su Xiaoliu shiver. She quickly tugged at Zhong Fengyue's sleeve and walked quickly, saying, "You're always acting rashly again. You should use your brain when doing things..."
Zhong Fengyue curved his lips and nodded, saying, "Okay, then I'll use my brain to think about how to cut off his other hand."
Su Xiaoliu was speechless. She glanced at Zhong Fengyue and didn't say anything.
Inside the room, the candle flickered and the sandalwood was curling.
Su Xiaoliu glanced at Fangxie sitting beside her, pursed her lips and said, "All this is what I heard. The current Alliance Leader is actually just a substitute, and the child of the previous Alliance Leader seems to be still alive in the world."
The slender fingers gently stroked the red jade finger ring. Fangxie paused slightly, and his thin lips under the black cloak pursed slightly.
Zhong Fengyue was stunned for a moment, looked at Su Xiaoliu, and quickly concealed the surprise in his eyes.
"Does that mean that the current martial world is actually being controlled by another person?" Bai Qing looked at Su Xiaoliu and asked with a cold look in his eyes.
Su Xiaoliu looked at him, nodded, and added, "So I suspect that this mastermind is the one related to the bloodshed of the Alliance Leader's family twenty years ago."
"So that's how it is." Fangxie, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said slowly.
Su Xiaoliu looked up at Zhong Fengyue, pursed the corner of her mouth and said, "I didn't expect the current martial world to be so chaotic. Even the Alliance Leader is fake..."
Zhong Fengyue smiled slightly, looked at Su Xiaoliu, and his ink-like jade eyes were shining with a charming luster. He said, "My lady, since we've already helped Young Master Gu, can we go home?"
