The subordinates of the Emperor Killing Alliance immediately pointed their guns at Mei Lan Zhu Ju, but Gu Momo raised her foot and kicked them directly in the back of the head, knocking them off their feet and immediately taking the guns from their hands.
At this moment, the subordinates of the Dark Night Alliance and the Glazed Pavilion, who had been guarding the area, also arrived in a grand procession and quickly surrounded the scene.
All of the Emperor-Killing Alliance's subordinates were pinned to the ground, and Steward Zhenqiao and Ye Nanting were tied up tightly.
"You bunch of bastards..." Butler Zhenqiao, enraged, tried to get up, but before he could draw his gun, Li Zhanting kicked it away. The next moment, Li Zhanting's foot landed on Butler Zhenqiao's chest.
"Grandpa Joe, it's been so long! No, maybe I should call you...Breaking Bad?"
A chilling voice sounded beside his ear. A flicker of disbelief crossed Butler Zhenqiao's eyes, then he smiled and looked at Li Zhanting:
"Mr. Ting, what do you mean by that? I don't understand."
“Grandpa Qiao, we were having such a pleasant chat, how could you not understand what I was saying?” Li Zhanting’s deep eyes narrowed with a smile, and then he suddenly ripped off the mask off Butler Zhenqiao’s face, revealing his true appearance.
Although the face shows signs of age, the eyes are sharp as knives, revealing a shrewd and capable person.
After seeing the face clearly, Gu Momo's eyes widened in surprise, which was quickly replaced by anger: "So this is your true face. It must have been hard for you to keep up this disguise for so long, always pretending even when you're right next to me. Your ability to endure is truly remarkable."
When Butler Zhenqiao saw Gu Momo's appearance, he was immediately enraged: "Gu Momo, I don't understand what you're saying, let me go!"
Gu Momo laughed: "I heard your conversation just now. Do you think I would let you off? You're quite something. When Zhan Ting and I tested you before, you managed to hide it from us every time."
"Just tell me honestly, who exactly is the leader of the Emperor-Slaying Alliance?"
Upon hearing Gu Momo mention the leader of the Emperor-Killing Alliance, Butler Zhenqiao and Ye Nanting seemed to suddenly remember something.
That's right! Didn't the Alliance Leader receive news that Gu Momo and the others took the Blood Jade Ring to the Emperor Killing Alliance base?
But why are they here?!
Butler Zhenqiao finally realized he'd been tricked by Gu Momo and Li Zhanting: "Gu Momo! How dare you deceive our leader?"
With the alliance leader gone, the entire Ye family manor was essentially leaderless, which presented a perfect opportunity for Gu Momo and her group to seize the opportunity!
Then their leader...
Just then, a deep, warm voice drifted over like a gentle breeze: "It seems that our Ye family is truly a place where hidden talents abound. Not only have all the members of the Emperor Killing Alliance infiltrated, but even Miss Gu and Mr. Li have learned to infiltrate secretly."
His warm, deep voice, like a mellow sake, seemed both real and ethereal, yet it suddenly made Gu Momo and Li Zhanting feel a murderous intent.
The two looked over in shock and saw Ye Rong, the head of the Ye family, standing tall and imposing.
His tall, slender figure stood with an air of nobility, and his handsome face was like the most exquisite work of art from heaven, without a single flaw.
A faint smile curved his thin lips, like a spring breeze that dispelled the world's troubles and distractions.
The moment he stood there, he felt as if everything in heaven and earth had lost its color.
Gu Momo and Li Zhanting narrowed their eyes sharply.
Because at that moment, they clearly saw the suppressed killing intent in the eyes of Patriarch Ye Rong.
The moment Ye Rong stood there, Butler Zhenqiao and Ye Nanting fell silent, then roared furiously at Ye Rong:
"Ha, you've come at just the right time! So you've wanted us dead all along? Ye Rong, you must have seen through our scheme a long time ago, right? You knew you couldn't handle us on your own, so you deliberately lured Gu Momo and Li Zhanting here to deal with us, didn't you? If I had known, you would have been the first one I killed!"
Ye Rong's eyes narrowed with a dangerous glint: "So what if you are? Don't you deserve to die?"
The voice was as light as a feather, yet it carried an extremely strong sense of intimidation.
Ye Nanting's eyes welled up with tears, and he glared at Ye Rong through gritted teeth: "As expected, the Ye family head is the most shrewd! It's unbelievable! We thought you were the easiest person for us to control, but in the end, we became pawns in the game! Hahaha, only someone like you deserves to be the head of a family! How can the other families compare to you?"
As he laughed wildly, despair gradually filled Ye Nanting's eyes, and blood slowly trickled from the corner of his mouth.
Li Zhanting was shocked and rushed forward to check: "He bit his tongue and committed suicide!"
He quickly looked at Butler Zhenqiao, only to see that Butler Zhenqiao was also about to bite his tongue and commit suicide. Li Zhanting quickly used his fingers to clamp down on both sides of his cheeks, effectively pinning his teeth in one place.
"Bring me the things!"
"yes!"
Gu Momo immediately stepped forward and took out a bottle. Butler Zhenqiao took a light sniff and fainted.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Li Zhanting shoved the stick his subordinate had brought into Zhenqiao's mouth: "Take him away and keep an eye on him yourself."
"yes!"
The subordinates immediately escorted the man away, and all the other subordinates of the Dark Night Alliance were also captured.
Soon only Gu Momo, Li Zhanting, and a few others remained at the scene. Li Zhanting strode up to Ye Rong and politely said:
“Patriarch, the situation of the Ye family is now basically clear. The Emperor-Slaying Alliance planted countless assassins in the Ye family, resulting in the deaths of dozens of Ye family members. We still need to inquire with Steward Zhenqiao for specific details. However, Momo and I have some very important matters to discuss with Steward Zhenqiao. I wonder if we could borrow Steward Zhenqiao for the time being?”
Butler Zhenqiao, also known as Grandpa Qiao, is a deadly poison master of the Emperor Killing Alliance. If you want to help Momo's mother get rid of the poison, you have to rely on him.
Ye Rong's handsome face was hidden in the shadows. His delicate and fair features were so perfect that they were breathtaking. However, his expression was cold and aloof, which neither Gu Momo nor Li Zhanting had ever seen before. He was as unapproachable as a high mountain with ice and snow.
Suddenly, a smile curved his thin lips, a dark glint in his eyes: "Of course!"
"The members of the Emperor-Slaying Alliance were discovered by Miss Gu and Mr. Li. If you want to find the information you want from them, I certainly have no right to stop you. Mr. Li and Miss Gu, please go ahead. I have no objection to this matter."
After saying that, he turned and strode away, his tall and upright figure exuding a chilling aura.
Seeing Ye Rong leave, Gu Momo narrowed her eyes slightly and moved closer to Li Zhanting:
"Zhan Ting, did you notice a slight change in the patriarch's mood today?"
She had a feeling that Ye Rong was radiating a cold indifference that kept people at arm's length today, and this was definitely not her imagination.
“It is a bit cold,” Li Zhanting said, but quickly changed the subject. “Our top priority should be to get in touch with your mother as soon as possible. Whether we can wake her up depends on whether we can get anything out of Butler Zhenqiao.”
