Ling Beizhu and Butler Lu were extremely shocked.
Wasn’t the Guimen clan wiped out?
Didn’t the Venom Fang Mercenaries complete their mission?
But now, was it a ghost they saw?
The shock on Ling Beizhu's face was too intense to hide.
The Ghost Gate Master couldn't help but sneer: "Miss Ling, why are you so surprised to see us here?
Or do you think we should be dead?"
Ling Beizhu's heart shuddered, and she quickly restrained her expression and forced a smile.
"Senior Ghost Sect Master, what are you talking about? I'm just too worried about you!"
At this point, her expression had returned to normal, and she said with concern, "Senior Ghost Gate Master, I heard that the Venom Fang Mercenary Group came to cause trouble for Ghost Gate.
Those mercenaries are extremely vicious. I heard that the situation is very serious. I was worried that you might have encountered an accident, so I came here in a hurry.
Senior Ghost Gate Master is my savior, and I was just too worried. I hope you don't mind if this is rude of me."
Butler Lu quickly echoed: "Yes, yes, it's great that the Ghost Sect Master is okay."
The Ghost Gate Master's eyes were sharp, and he sneered, "Really? Miss Ling really took a lot of trouble."
Ling Beizhu was just about to breathe a sigh of relief.
The Ghost Gate Master continued, “However, how did Miss Ling know that those people were from the Venom Fang Mercenary Group?
There were indeed a few thieves who came to Guimen to cause trouble before, but we beat them so badly that they ran away in a panic.
We thought they were just ordinary thieves, but we didn't expect them to be the Venom Fang Mercenaries.
It seems that Miss Ling is really well-informed, even more so than us, the victims."
On the side, Butler Lu broke out in a cold sweat on his forehead.
Ling Beizhu argued, "So it's just an ordinary thief? That means Beizhu was wrong.
Don't think too much, Master of Ghost Gate. We were on our way here too. We heard that the Venom Fang Mercenaries went to Ghost Gate to cause trouble, so we heard this.
How could Beizhu know the origins of those people?"
Seeing that she refused to admit it, the Ghost Gate Master smiled coldly and said no more to her, "Since something like this happened in our Ghost Gate, it's not appropriate to keep Miss Ling for any longer, so I won't entertain her.
I, Guimen, will remember Miss Ling's kindness."
Ling Beizhu's pupils shrank instantly. What good could she get if she was hated by the Ghost Gate?
If her secret were revealed, she would be finished.
How could the Ling family possibly accommodate me?
The Ghost Sect Master no longer paid attention to Ling Beizhu, but turned to Ruan Qiao and said, "Girl, take a look in this study to see if there is anything you like. If there is, put it all together and we will take it to the Jiang Sect."
Ruan Qiao nodded: "Okay."
She and Wei Changzhou and others continued to organize things in the study.
Ling Beizhu's expression changed, and she suddenly looked in Ruan Qiao's direction.
Who is this woman? Why did the Ghost Gate Master give her the Ghost Gate's things?
There are many valuable treasures in the Ghost Gate Master's study, and they just fell into the hands of this unknown woman?
She has reserved all these treasures from Guimen. They will belong to her sooner or later. How can she let others take them away?
She couldn't help but ask, "What are you doing, Senior Ghost Sect Master? These things are the Ghost Sect's heritage, and those antique calligraphy and paintings are all treasures handed down from generation to generation. How can you give them away?"
The Ghost Gate Master looked over with cold eyes.
Wei Changzhou sneered, "What does it have to do with you, an outsider, what do we, the Ghost Gate, do with our own things?"
Ling Beizhu almost screamed out loud, those were all her things!
Even this house of yours in Guimen is mine!
She suppressed the urge to scream and smiled stiffly, "I'm just concerned about the Ghost Sect Master. Why are you so fierce, Mr. Wei?"
"Why am I so fierce? Don't you know what's going on?"
Wei Changzhou asked back with a sneer.
As she spoke, under Ling Beizhu's distressed gaze, she handed a jade Qilin ornament to Ruan Qiao.
Ling Beizhu's eyes widened as he tried hard to suppress the urge to rush forward and snatch it.
"Mr. Wei, I don't understand what you are saying..."
The Ghost Gate Master said coldly, "Miss Ling, is there anything else?"
"No, no more..."
Ling Beizhu's expression was stiff. Damn it, did these people from Guimen know something?
Why are you so cold and rude to her?
She wanted to leave immediately and question the Venom Fang Mercenaries about what was going on.
But when she thought of the empty warehouse, her heart bled.
All those good things are gone...
She finally said, "Senior Ghost Gate Master, did those thieves take away all the Ghost Gate's things?
When we came in just now, we saw that the warehouse of Guimen had been emptied.
Those thieves are so despicable that they left nothing behind!"
She was asking, but also testing.
She wanted to know whether the things in the Ghost Gate warehouse were moved away by the Poison Fang people or hidden by Ghost Gate.
Judging from the current situation, it is very likely that Guimen himself hid it.
But where can they hide?
She couldn't help but look around the study with her eyes rolling around.
She wanted to find the entrance to the secret room.
Maybe, they hid those treasures in the secret room.
The Ghost Gate Master almost laughed out of anger.
"Miss Ling is so concerned about our Ghost Gate's warehouse that it really makes this Sect Master feel strange."
Ling Beizhu's face froze.
"Senior Ghost Sect Master, I'm just concerned..."
"You are an outsider, not a disciple of our Ghost Gate, and have no connection with our Ghost Gate. Why are you so concerned about our Ghost Gate's warehouse?
Those who don't know would think that you brought those thieves here just to steal our Guimen's attention."
Ruan Qiao suddenly spoke.
Ever since Ling Beizhu saw Guimen giving the good things to Ruan Qiao, she developed a strong hostility towards Ruan Qiao.
Hearing Ruan Qiao say this, her eyes suddenly turned red.
"Sister, please don't be angry. Even if Beizhu said something inappropriate, please don't get angry.
Beizhu didn't mean it on purpose. I just care about the Ghost Gate Master.
I have been in poor health, and it was Ghost Gate Master who used to help me with my treatment. I just treated Ghost Gate Master as an elder and showed concern for him.
If you don't like me, then I'll leave. Don't let me affect your relationship with Senior Ghost Gate Master."
When these words were spoken, not only the people from Guimen were shocked, but even Ruan Qiao was stunned.
"Meow!"
In the corner, Abner couldn't help but make a sound of disbelief.
It was having a lot of fun holding a huge night-shining pearl in its two front paws, but at this moment it looked at Ling Beizhu with disgust.
Even cats wouldn't play such a low-level trick.
At most, cats pet their owners to please them!
Not like this shameless and vicious woman!
