Hua Ling stood calmly beside Master Chen, her voice both alluring and ethereal: "What, am I wrong?"

"On the day the underground bank went wrong, I remember that Li Zhanting and Gu Momo seemed to have spent a lot of money to invite the host to a private room upstairs for a small gathering. Since they had contact, their relationship should be quite good, right? I had heard long ago that there was a traitor in our Lotus Pavilion. Someone colluded with the Underworld Alliance and the Glazed Pavilion to try to overthrow our Lotus Pavilion and the underground bank, but so far we have not found out who that person is."

At this point, Hua Ling's voice became even clearer and colder: "Our Lotus Pavilion is a renowned intelligence agency under the Emperor-Slaying Alliance. All our intelligence personnel are top-notch experts. But if so many experts can't find out who this traitor is, then it can only mean one thing—this traitor must hold a high position of power within the Lotus Pavilion!"

"So, Liu Xu, besides you who has seen Gu Momo and Li Zhanting, who else could it be?!"

Liu Xu's face immediately turned ashen: "Hua Ling, what are your intentions in framing me like this?!"

The moment she finished speaking, she raised her pistol and aimed it at Hua Ling, her movements swift and fierce!

Unexpectedly, Hua Ling and Master Chen reacted even faster, instantly appearing behind Liu Xu and grabbing her wrist: "Liu Xu, how dare you point a gun directly at your partner? Ha, you are the Left Master, but Hua Ling is also the Right Master!"

Liu Xu's subordinates immediately turned their guns on Hua Ling and Master Chen, but Hua Ling and Master Chen's subordinates showed no weakness.

The atmosphere instantly became tense, with sparks of anger filling the air.

Liu Xu gritted her teeth in resentment. She had figured it out: Master Chen was clearly on Hua Ling's side!

If Master Chen were truly fair and just, he would have suspected Hua Ling long ago, given how angry he was just now!

"Ha, so you two were in cahoots all along!" Liu Xu directly attacked Chen Zhuang. "You two traitors! So you two had been working together to deal with the Alliance Leader all along! The Alliance Leader has treated you well, why did you try to harm him like this?"

Master Chen was already furious, and now he was even more enraged: "Liu Xu! What nonsense are you spouting?!"

He came here to find the traitor, but now everyone here seems to have a flaw!

This lotus pavilion may have seemed harmonious at first glance, but in reality, it had long since fallen apart!

However, Master Chen preferred to believe Hua Ling rather than Liu Xu. After all, Hua Ling had done many favors for the subordinates of the underground bank, and even his life had been saved by Hua Ling at the risk of her own.

If Hua Ling was the mole, then the underground bank and he would have lost their lives a thousand times over!

"Whether I'm lying or not, we'll find out when we hand you over to the Alliance Leader!" The moment she finished speaking, Liu Xu swiftly dodged Master Chen's fatal blow and grabbed Master Chen's wrist with her own. However, Master Chen was stronger and managed to pull his arm out of her grasp.

Seeing that something was wrong, Liu Xu immediately gave a wink to her subordinate who was not far away. The subordinate understood immediately and turned to leave.

The next moment, Liu Xu dodged Master Chen's attack and her slender fingers gripped the barrel of Master Chen's gun: "Wait!"

"Master Chen, didn't you come here specifically to find the traitor? Our Emperor-Slaying Alliance is already on the verge of collapse. Gu Momo and Li Zhanting have been watching us for a long time. If we continue to fight amongst ourselves, won't we be putting the Alliance Leader and Lotus Pavilion in danger?"

"How about we put aside the immediate issues for now, focus on dealing with the outsiders together, and discuss the traitor later?"

Master Chen's voice was practically choked out: "Damn it, Liu Xu, are you kidding me?!"

With the underground banks sabotaged, the wealthy merchant Ala lost his primary source of funds, and the Emperor-Slaying Alliance lost its strong economic support.

This is more important than his life. He'd rather be dead than not find the traitor and tear him to pieces!

A playful smile appeared in Liu Xu's eyes: "Master Chen, please be patient. Perhaps the results will be available soon..."

As she spoke, she subconsciously glanced at Hua Ling, her smile concealing a knife.

The wariness in Hua Ling's eyes vanished in an instant; she concealed her emotions very well: "Master Chen, Liu Xu is right."

She had a vague premonition that Liu Xu was about to make a big move!

Sure enough, the next moment, the entire Lotus Tower was hit by a loud bang, and everyone felt the ground shake violently.

Master Chen's heart leaped into his throat, and he asked in a panic, "What happened? Have Gu Momo and Li Zhanting arrived?!"

Gu Momo and Li Zhanting have now become a major threat to Master Chen. Just mentioning their names gives him nightmares!

As soon as he finished speaking, chaos erupted inside the Lotus Pavilion, with countless girls rushing out of the rooms:

"Gu Momo and Li Zhanting have broken into Lotus Pavilion! It's the Maritime Criminal Investigation Department!"

"Reporting to Master Chen and Lord Lou! Gu Momo and Li Zhanting led the Criminal Investigation Department into our underground trap. There's no exit inside. Once they're inside, we can seal them off! They're doomed this time!"

"What?!" Master Chen and Liu Xu's expressions immediately brightened with excitement, and Master Chen even burst into laughter:

"This is truly a stroke of luck! I thought I wouldn't be able to catch Gu Momo and Li Zhanting, but I didn't expect them to walk right into my trap again! Gu Momo and Li Zhanting are far too confident. Don't think that just because they wiped out the underground bank, they can destroy Lotus Tower! You should know that there are countless traps in Lotus Tower. If they dare to barge in, they're doomed!"

Hua Ling immediately realized what was happening and exclaimed excitedly, "Let's go check it out right away! We absolutely have to catch Gu Momo and Li Zhanting this time!"

"Yes!" The Lotus Pavilion's subordinates rushed towards the underground pit, and Hua Ling's heart was also tense.

Gu Momo and Li Zhanting had just led the Criminal Investigation Department to retreat not long ago, so how could they risk their lives again?

Could it be that they have infiltrated Lotus Tower again, preparing to completely wipe it out?

Once her subordinates had all run away, she immediately withdrew from the demobilization and took a shortcut to the underground pit, changing her makeup at the same time.

Hua Ling has been an undercover agent in the Lotus Tower for many years. She not only has a clear understanding of all the secrets and passages inside the Lotus Tower, but she has also secretly opened up many secret passages that only she knows about. These secret passages can help her reach certain important places inside the Lotus Tower.

Underground collapse is one of them!

This secret passage took at least ten minutes less to enter than the normal route!

While rushing to the secret passage, Hua Ling immediately sent a message to the Criminal Investigation Department through the communicator hidden in her hair:

"Send reinforcements immediately! But you must spare Master Chen's life. All I know right now is that Master Chen has the palm print of the leader of the Emperor-Slaying Alliance. This palm print can open the central system of the Emperor-Slaying Alliance base. The entire Emperor-Slaying Alliance base is actually controlled by this central system. As long as we can get this palm print, it will be much easier for us to conquer the Emperor-Slaying Alliance!"
