In the torture chamber.
Chen An listened to the report from Liu Tong and his men.
After listening to this, Chen An frowned: "Didn't any of these people take the initiative to say anything?"
Liu Tong shook his head: "No, they knew they were doomed, so they didn't cry out for justice or say anything."
After saying this, Liu Tong's eyes flashed: "Your Majesty, do you think there are still people who have not entered the net?"
Chen An frowned: "There is one thing I haven't figured out."
"What?" Liu Tong's face turned serious.
"According to what you said, Chu Yu secretly colluded with Zhang Qi, but court officials like Xu Juge don't know that even if I die, Tiandu City will still belong to my Fengshen Sect. How dare they go against my will and support King Cheng? Isn't this courting death?"
Liu Tong frowned and said, "Perhaps Xu Juge and the others were also instigated by Zhang Qi, or by the Liuli Sect!"
"As far as I know, Xu Juge and some others didn't stand up to support Huangfu Jian before. Now that Huangfu Jian is dead, what virtue and ability does Zhang Qi have to make Xu Juge and others willing to take the risk of supporting a Cheng Wang and go against my will?"
At this point, Chen An narrowed his eyes. "Even if the Liuli Sect joined in, after the battle outside the city gate, the Liuli Sect's strong men would be almost wiped out except for a few who escaped. Do they think that such a Liuli Sect can compete with my Fengshen Sect?"
Liu Tong's eyes flashed: "Could it be that the royal family has some ulterior motives?"
"I don't know!" Chen An shook his head.
At this moment, Yu Li and Fu Yu were brought in.
Seeing these two guys, Chen An felt a little embarrassed. To be honest, he really forgot about it!
There was no way, these two guys seemed to have no sense of existence in his heart.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
Yu Li's eyes were red, as if she had been crying.
Fu Yu stood aside sullenly, his eyes seemingly fixed on Yu Li.
Just now, Liu Tong's subordinates also mentioned these two things when they reported.
Chen An used to find it strange that a killer was so afraid of death.
Now I understand that what Yu Li is concerned about is the boy next to him named Fu Yu, who looks a little silly.
"What are your plans for the future?" Chen An asked.
Yu Li looked at Chen An, frowned and thought for a long time.
Chen An added: "One, leave Tiandu City and find your own way out. Two, follow me."
Yu Li gritted her teeth slightly: "Your Majesty, what does you want us to do?"
"It's very simple. Since you are from the Dragon Palace, you naturally know more than me. If you come to kill me, there must be other killers from the Dragon Palace!" Chen An's expression was calm.
Yu Li stared at Chen An: "Do you want us to help you deal with the Dragon Palace Killer?"
"You don't need to deal with me. What I want is information!" Chen An's eyes flashed.
Yu Li thought about it and glanced at Fuyu next to him.
Then he nodded solemnly: "Okay, we will follow Your Majesty, but... I hope Your Majesty can let us live!"
Chen An nodded: "As long as you don't leave Tiandu City, your safety is guaranteed."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Yu Li made the decision and seemed to feel relieved.
Fuyu watched Yuli perform the salute and imitated her: "Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty."
"In a moment, you will report to the commander of the Imperial Guard!"
"yes!"
Liu Tong sent someone to take Yu Li and Fu Yu out.
Liu Tong was puzzled and asked, "Your Majesty, these are assassins from the Dragon Palace after all. It is a great favor for Your Majesty not to kill them. Why did you recruit them into the Imperial Guard? It would be risky."
Chen An shook his head: "If more assassins come, they might be useful."
"I'm afraid they will be fickle." Liu Tong said worriedly.
"If a killer has concerns, he will be hesitant before doing anything, but she doesn't dare." Chen An was very confident.
Then, Chen An asked, "How is Xu Xianxian in there?"
"Xu Xianxian has been very well behaved since she came in. She eats, drinks, and sleeps as usual every day. She's quite calm."
After saying that, Liu Tong asked, "Your Majesty, although Xu Xianxian is the daughter of Xu Juge, she did not participate and even helped Your Majesty. Why..."
"Just let her stay here for a few days." Chen An said with a smile.
When Liu Tong heard this, he was stunned. It seemed that this king really treated this prison as an inn.
It’s okay to arrange for someone to stay for a few days!
After a while, Xie Huayu walked in from outside, came to Chen An, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, I checked and found no one else but Gu Qingyi."
Chen An now has a relatively comprehensive understanding of the ninth-level pharmacist.
It is known that the ninth-level pharmacist has great appeal in the world, especially among those practitioners who hope to receive assistance from panaceas.
People like Gu Qingyi are the ones they want to seek out.
I didn’t expect that Gu Qingyi didn’t even call some experts to come and help.
"Okay, let her in." Chen An nodded.
Xie Huayu was about to turn around, but stopped, stole a glance at Chen An, gritted her teeth, and whispered quickly, "Your Majesty, be careful. I heard that a ninth-level pharmacist can kill people invisibly, and...this Gu Qingyi is known as the Medicine Fairy, and she has a powerful ability to bewitch men."
Chen An blinked and looked at Xie Huayu: "What do you mean?"
Xie Huayu blushed slightly and lowered her head, saying, "I'm worried that Gu Qingyi will use some tricks on Your Majesty. People like them have many strange and bizarre medicines..."
Chen An glared: "Even if she drugged me?"
Xie Huayu nodded hurriedly.
Chen An couldn't help but roll his eyes: "I'm immune to all poisons!"
