Five years ago, Gu Momo saved the Empire's richest man and was forced to conceive a child.
Five years later, she returned强势 with countless secret identities. Countless tyants knelt before...
Gu Momo's eyes sparkled with excitement as she connected the dots between the events.
“Dad has actually been protecting us in secret all along, while the Emperor-Slaying Alliance has long been aware of Dad’s existence. The Emperor-Slaying Alliance sees Dad as a thorn in their side, and even feels that Dad is a greater threat to the Emperor-Slaying Alliance than we are to them, so they did not hesitate to ask Grandpa Qiao to tell us the method of developing the antidote. In this way, Dad will definitely show up for the antidote.”
Therefore, the mysterious person they saw in their mother's hospital room was most likely their father!
To avoid burdening them, Dad left the hospital immediately before Mom woke up.
Immediately afterwards, my father was targeted by the Emperor-Slaying Alliance and was relentlessly hunted down by them!
The expressions on everyone's faces varied, but unsurprisingly, they had all pieced together the whole story.
Gu Wanrou hurriedly asked worriedly, "Isn't Dad in great danger right now? Should we help Dad?"
Although the Emperor-Slaying Alliance has suffered heavy losses, given their hatred for their father, they probably wish they could exterminate him completely.
Before she could finish speaking, Li Zhanfeng chimed in, "I think now is the best time to have a decisive battle with the Emperor-Slaying Alliance."
“Uncle’s unwillingness to meet with us means he already knew that this operation was a trap deliberately set for him by the Emperor-Slaying Alliance. The Emperor-Slaying Alliance was already greatly weakened, and now that they are willing to pay a heavy price to hunt down Uncle, their internal strength must be even more depleted. This is the best opportunity to attack the Emperor-Slaying Alliance. Moreover, if we pose a threat to the Emperor-Slaying Alliance, the people hunting Uncle will also come back to support us.”
In this way, the danger on Fu Jinye's side was reduced by more than half!
“Zhan Feng is right!” Li Zhanting made a decisive decision. “We should return to L Country immediately and settle things with the Emperor-Slaying Alliance. At the moment, the only one who can quickly support Uncle is probably the Queen of Y Country. I will make a call to communicate with her right away.”
"Okay, let's get ready right away!"
After Gu Momo and the others finished their discussion, they immediately packed their things and prepared to set off for Country L.
Li Zhanting also communicated with the Queen of Y Country and the senior officials of the Criminal Investigation Department as quickly as possible to ensure Fu Jinye's safety.
Several hours later, Gu Momo and the others arrived in L country smoothly, but after getting off the plane, they discovered that L country had undergone drastic changes!
The subordinate hurriedly reported: "Report! Our territory in the heart of L Country's capital has been wiped out by L Country nobles, and our people have been listed as dangerous individuals and are now under urgent manhunt! Master Ting, what are we going to do now?"
Gu Momo and the others exchanged glances and immediately guessed that this was the work of the leader of the Emperor Killing Alliance once again!
But this was entirely expected, so Li Zhanting said without changing his expression, "It's not uncommon for the Emperor-Slaying Alliance to have members among the nobles. The only place where we can confirm the identity of the Emperor-Slaying Alliance leader is the Ye family. Let's head to the Ye family immediately."
As he spoke, he turned to Li Zhanfeng and Gu Wanrou: "Zhanfeng, Wanrou, you will continue to cooperate with our operations in secret. You should not show yourselves. Go with Fuying to meet up with the Criminal Investigation Department first, so that we can coordinate our actions from the inside and outside."
"Okay, bro, be careful over there."
"Don't worry, we have two older brothers here with us."
Li Zhanting and the others quickly left the airport, and Gu Momo also made contact with Ye Lingxiao and Ye Zhancheng as soon as possible.
The two quickly boarded a vehicle from Liuli Pavilion and headed to the Ye family. Along the way, Gu Momo had already thoroughly reviewed the Ye family's information.
Looking at Ye Rong's information in the document, Gu Momo frowned slightly, a look of worry gathering between her brows.
Noticing the change in Gu Momo's expression, Li Zhanting leaned closer to her and asked, "Momo, how did you find it?"
Gu Momo narrowed her eyes slightly, pointed at Ye Rong's information, and said thoughtfully:
"To be honest, I'm really reluctant to think about Ye Rong in this matter. But I have to say, there are just too many suspicious points about Ye Rong right now. He is the only survivor of the Ye family, but he is also the most suspicious person in the Ye family."
Li Zhanting followed Gu Momo's gaze and was immediately shocked.
The data includes numerous dates, but a careful comparison of these dates reveals…
People in the Ye family manor began to die mysteriously one after another, seemingly starting from the moment Ye Rong became the head of the Ye family!
And this time is very close to the time when the Emperor-Slaying Alliance became famous!
“This is…” Li Zhanting carefully compared these dates. Although these three events were at least several months apart, it was truly terrifying to think about them together.
Are all these things really related to Ye Rong, or are they just coincidences?
"It seems our previous guess was correct; this Ye Rong family head is indeed suspicious."
As he spoke, a cold smile crept onto Li Zhanting's lips, and a dark undercurrent gathered in his eyes.
When they first entered the Ye family, almost all of them encountered difficulties from the Ye family members, but only Ye Rong stood by their side.
In addition, Ye Rong has an excellent reputation and is trusted by other members of the Ye family, and he himself is very approachable.
Therefore, Gu Momo and Li Zhanting subconsciously categorized Ye Rong as a friendly person.
But now that I think about it carefully, isn't this the best disguise a person can make?
Gu Momo's expression wasn't very good: "But this is just our guess. We'll have to wait for the results of our investigation to know for sure."
Honestly, this was the first time Gu Momo had ever seen anyone other than her brother who cared for and looked after Ye Meng so much.
Based on her observation of Ye Rong, Ye Rong's concern for Ye Meng definitely didn't seem to be feigned.
If Ye Rong really has a problem, wouldn't that be cruel to Ye Meng as well?
Li Zhanting seemed to see Gu Momo's concerns and gently held her hand: "Don't worry, the situation is still uncertain. Besides, Ye Meng is not an ignorant child. If Ye Rong really has a problem, she can get through it."
Hearing Li Zhanting's words of comfort, Gu Momo nodded in agreement.
Well! In this situation, we can only hope that Ye Rong isn't what they suspect!
After Gu Momo and Li Zhanting returned to the Ye family manor, they immediately began preparing to head to the manor where Ye Rong was located.
Unexpectedly, the two had only taken a few steps into the manor when Fu Jinye rushed over from not far away: "Momo, Zhanting, you're back? How's the situation in the capital lately? When do you plan to have a final battle with the leader of the Emperor-Slaying Alliance?"
His cold face showed a hurried expression, as if he was very concerned about Gu Momo and Li Zhanting.
Gu Momo and Li Zhanting's expressions turned slightly cold, and their fingers clenched slightly.
They just held such an important marriage proposal ceremony in the capital, and all the news media are reporting on them.
As Gu Momo's dearest father, shouldn't he be the one most concerned about Gu Momo's marriage proposal?
Ha, a traitor is a traitor!
