The fake courtesan's resolute stance startled Xia Tianqiong.
He started using threats and inducements, and even called on the delivery guys to come over and help him come up with a solution.
After all that talking, the fake courtesan's body was on the verge of collapse, but she still refused to yield even in the face of death.
Xia Tianqiong wanted to find out more about the Wang family's internal situation, such as how many powerful figures and core members they had, but this guy refused to reveal anything.
Extremely loyal to the royal family!
The strange things in this world are not all about people who are afraid of death; some people value loyalty and righteousness more than life and death.
Xia Tianqiong sighed softly, then began to deceive, "Seeing as you are loyal and righteous, I will not kill you. How about this, I will seal you first, and one day I will go to the Wang family and have them redeem you."
After a moment's thought, the fake courtesan agreed.
"I can agree to the seal, but you must promise me that you won't cause trouble for the Wang family."
"Okay, no problem."
Xia Tianqiong has no plans to go after the Wang family for the time being. The Wang family is the head of the eight great families and is more powerful. He is not confident that he can cause trouble for the Wang family right now.
As for what happens in the future, we'll talk about that later.
Even if we don't form a contract with this powerful and treacherous member of the Wang family, keeping it sealed in the chessboard indefinitely would be a good option.
After all, the game needs to be sealed away in the later stages.
Xia Tianqiong then sealed the fake courtesan, left the mirror space, and sent the video she had just filmed to Huang Kun.
Less than a minute later, Huang Kun called.
"Was that courtesan really Wang Jiali in disguise?"
"Would I lie to you about something so important? I've already killed Li Gui. Why don't you go ask the Wang family?"
"No need for that, I trust you. What's the next step? Should we stick to the original plan?"
On the other end of the phone, Huang Kun was very polite, as if he were waiting for his superior to give instructions.
Xia Tianqiong said, "The plan has changed. Today is a good opportunity to completely eliminate the Liu family. You should immediately contact the Bai family and the Mo family, and in the name of your Huang family, unite with the two families to besiege the Liu family's hotel in two hours."
"Why contact the Bai and Mo families? My Huang family is enough to destroy the Liu family."
“If your Huang family is willing to take the blame for me, I wouldn’t mind.”
There was a pause on the other end of the phone. "I'll contact both families immediately, but they may not be willing to help. Even if they do, they may not be willing to join forces with my Huang family."
"It's not about you actually joining forces with those two families. You just need to tell them that the courtesan is a fake, someone Li Gui borrowed from the Wang family to impersonate her. Tell them that whether they want to take action or not, your Huang family will eliminate the Liu family in two hours."
"Understood. Once they're certain that the Huang family will make a move, they'll definitely come for a share. They can't just watch the Huang family take over the Liu family all by themselves."
"That's what I mean. There's one thing you need to be careful about: you're not allowed to mention me or anything about me to anyone."
While Xia Tianqiong was on the rooftop talking to Huang Kun on the phone, the Liu family was also discussing him in the hotel building below.
Inside a presidential suite.
Liu Zhentian and a group of core members of the Liu family were staring at the laptop screen.
The video playing on the computer was the surveillance footage from the lounge.
They clearly saw a man who looked like a hotel employee emerge from the shadows, defeat the fake courtesan with a red cloth, and then take her away.
The whole process took less than a minute.
"This is Shadow Teleportation. Among all the known Tricksters in the country, only Xia Tianqiong possesses this trick."
"Then he must also possess the ability to transform, to become anyone. He must have been the one who assassinated our Liu family members before."
"He has so many tricks up his sleeve. It seems that even our family's top courtesan was killed by him."
"Sigh! How can this person be so powerful? I should never have messed with him."
The Liu family was initially shocked, but then became angry and panicked.
Liu Zhengyang suddenly said, "The staff member who played the video has been arrested. He said that some kind of force was controlling his body at the time, and it was not his own behavior."
In other words, Fangfang's sudden attack to kill Mo Dongyi was also due to being controlled, clearly indicating that Xia Tianqiong possesses the ability to control others. Thinking about it this way, the conflict at the party the day before yesterday was most likely instigated by him.
Suddenly, someone nearby remembered something, "He must have arrived in the capital a long time ago, spreading the news of the missing courtesan in red, assassinating members of our Liu family, sowing discord between us and other families, and now he's here to sabotage the engagement ceremony. He's trying to force our Liu family to our doom!"
Liu Zhentian suddenly shook his head slightly, "He doesn't want to force my Liu family to its death, but he wants to destroy my Liu family with his own hands."
Everyone in the room was stunned for a moment.
He was once thought to be just a nobody who could be crushed at will, but now he can threaten the life and death of the Liu family.
Liu Zhengyang frowned, looking at Liu Zhentian with hopeful eyes, "Father, how should we resist? He could easily kill Li Gui, so it wouldn't be difficult for him to wipe out our Liu family."
An unprecedentedly serious expression appeared on Liu Zhentian's old face.
He narrowed his eyes and remained silent.
After a moment, he suddenly spoke again, "If he could really deal with Li Gui so easily, he wouldn't have done so much trouble. Instead, he would have come straight to our door and slaughtered my entire Liu family."
Everyone's eyes lit up, and their hope was rekindled.
Liu Zhengyang suddenly understood, "What Father meant was that his method of killing Li Gui could not be used easily, or there were some restrictions on its use, and it could not be used continuously, so he did not come directly to kill him."
Liu Zhentian, having lived a long life and possessing rich experience, nodded and continued, "Right now, the most dangerous one is not him. He will not make a move for at least a few more days, and he cannot kill too many people at the same time."
