They stretch as far as the eye can see, and their numbers are far more than hundreds or thousands, probably even tens of thousands!
Li Zhanting's expression tightened. He quickly realized the key point: "Immediately check these people to see how many are alive! Also, verify everyone's identity and make sure the Dark Moon leader is dead!"
"Yes, Master Ting! We'll begin the investigation immediately!"
The sheer scale of the explosion deeply shocked even the Dark Night Alliance, so its subordinates dared not be negligent in the slightest.
But the more Gu Momo thought about it, the stranger it seemed. Who could hate Dark Moon so much that they would set up such a huge trap?
Such a large area was filled with explosives. The person who caused the explosion must have put a lot of thought into it.
Could it have been made by Wanrou's master?
But why does Wanrou's master hate Dark Moon so much?
Just then, a subordinate's voice came from not far away: "Master Ting, Miss Momo, we've found someone alive here!"
Gu Momo and Li Zhanting exchanged glances and rushed over, shouting, "Where is he?!"
"Reporting to Master Ting, she's here! But her injuries are severe, and she probably has no hope of survival!"
Gu Momo and Li Zhanting had just arrived at the scene when they saw their subordinates helping a seriously injured person. The iron mask on her face had fallen to the side and was blown in two, revealing her weathered face.
His whole body was covered in blood, and his hands and feet were blown apart!
Gu Momo's gaze fell on her face, and her breath caught in her throat. This face... she remembered it!
She had seen it when she was investigating her father Fu Jinye's network of connections; it was her seventh sister-in-law who had always been by her father's side!
Upon seeing Gu Momo and Li Zhanting arrive, the masked woman, who had appeared on the verge of death, suddenly became extremely agitated. She used almost all her strength, her hand trembling as she pointed at Gu Momo: "Miss...Miss Momo..."
Gu Momo rushed to her side and hugged the masked man in her arms on behalf of her subordinate: "I'm here!"
She knew that the Man in the Iron Mask was seriously injured and beyond saving, but she still did her best to cover his wounds with her hands:
"Seventh Sister-in-law, don't speak yet. I'll find a way to treat you! Someone, prepare immediately..."
Before she could finish speaking, Seventh Sister's crippled fingers gripped Gu Momo's wrist tightly, and she could barely manage to speak with all her might: "Miss Momo, no need... I know I'm going to die this time, but God has spared my life to wait for your arrival. It must be God's mercy on me, so you must listen to me first..."
Gu Momo's eyes welled up with tears, and she said anxiously, "You'll be alright! You will!"
She had always suspected that Seventh Sister-in-law was not dead, but she never expected that Seventh Sister-in-law had been secretly protecting them all along, and she never expected that she would meet Seventh Sister-in-law in this way in the end!
Seventh Sister-in-law seemed to be stubbornly choking with her last breath, her eyes fixed on Gu Momo with resentment.
Li Zhanting quickly squatted down next to Gu Momo and carefully put his arm around her shoulder: "Momo, please wait patiently until she finishes speaking."
He knew Momo would be sad, but there was no possibility of curing Seventh Sister-in-law, so it was better to let her fulfill her last wish.
With Li Zhanting's reminder, Gu Momo quickly regained her composure and forcefully held back the tears welling up in her eyes.
Seventh Sister-in-law stared stubbornly at Gu Momo, each word seemingly uttered with the last of her strength: "Miss Momo, I'm sorry, I can no longer help Master Fu and Madam, nor can I help Miss Wanrou..."
Gu Momo immediately sensed something: "Seventh Sister-in-law, what did you say... Wanrou?"
Seventh Sister-in-law's eyes welled up with tears of regret: "Yes, Miss Momo, I'm sorry I've never had a chance to explain this to you. Miss Wanrou is actually your younger sister. Back then, Madam didn't give birth to triplets, but quadruplets!"
With a loud bang, Gu Momo felt as if she had been struck by lightning. How could she have overlooked this possibility!
"When Madam gave birth, it was a near-death experience. She was suddenly found by traitors from the Emperor-Slaying Alliance, who wanted to kill her..." Seventh Sister swallowed hard. Even after more than twenty years, her eyes were still filled with resentment and grief when she mentioned this incident. "Although she was nominally married to Gu Zhenting at the time, the Gu family was not safe. In order to give birth safely, she had no choice but to leave the Gu family and escape the Emperor-Slaying Alliance's pursuit under the protection of her subordinates..."
"It's a pity that despite her desperate attempts to escape, the lady was betrayed at the crucial moment of childbirth. The woman who betrayed her was none other than Dong Bihua!"
Gu Momo's eyes widened in shock. Dong Bihua...
Hasn't Dong Bihua been running her Dong Group ever since her family went bankrupt?
Why did she get involved with her mother, and even betray her mother at such a crucial moment?
"And then what happened!" Gu Momo's voice rose with anger; she could not forgive what had happened back then!
This Dong Bihua is indeed a hidden talent. She may seem to have no special abilities or methods, but she is involved in quite a lot of things!
“The people from the Madam’s assassination alliance have been found, so we have no choice but to risk our lives to protect her.” As she spoke, Seventh Sister looked at Gu Momo with even more seriousness. “Of course, there’s also your father, Fu Jinye! Even when his life was in its most critical moment, Master Fu still chose to protect Madam!”
What she didn't have time to say was that back then, Master Fu was willing to give up the Fu family's wealth and glory in order to protect his wife!
Although Master Fu outwardly rejected Madam countless times, he did indeed completely ignore her at times.
