"Manager Hu, where are you taking me?"
"Of course, I'll take you to see the master of the building."
"Oh? But why are we getting further and further astray?"
Hu Yushu, who was leading the way, suddenly stopped, looked up at the completely dark night, and muttered, "This is it."
As soon as he finished speaking, two burly figures appeared behind Shen Zhao, blocking his retreat.
Shen Zhao touched his nose, looking puzzled: "Manager Hu, what do you mean by this?"
Hu Yushu turned around and looked coldly at Chen Zhao: "Chu Liuxiang, today, this Heaven and Earth will be your burial ground."
"It seems Manager Hu is determined to get rid of me? You arranged those assassins during the day, didn't you?"
"I really didn't expect that this would be the first time Fengyulou has failed in a mission. But thank goodness, you actually came to my door on your own initiative, which saves me the trouble of trying to lure you in."
After speaking, Hu Yushu waved her hand, and two burly men behind Shen Zhao began to slowly approach.
Shen Zhao smiled faintly: "Manager Hu, you don't think you can save my life with just these two people? That's a bit too presumptuous."
"I have investigated thoroughly. Your specialty, Chu Liuxiang, is movement technique."
Therefore, I specifically requested two cultivators from the Wind and Rain Pavilion who had mastered the Golden Body technique to deal with you.
No matter how skilled you are, you won't be able to escape this battle.
"If I can't beat them, can't I just run away? Since they know my agility is unparalleled, how could these people possibly stop me?"
"Escape? You think you can still escape? I've already laid a Heavenly Net Demon-Locking Array here."
Even if your agility and lightness skill were ten times greater, you still wouldn't be able to escape this constraint.
Upon hearing this, Shen Zhao sighed softly, "Impressive. I never imagined that I, Chu Liuxiang, who was so wise throughout my life, would ultimately fall into your hands. Fine, take this life if you want."
Hu Yushu sneered, "What, are you planning to give up and surrender obediently?"
Shen Zhao unfolded his folding fan: "But before I die, could I ask one more question, so that I can leave this world with a clear understanding?"
"You want to delay?"
"Now that they've laid a trap, where can I possibly run to? Surely Manager Hu wouldn't refuse such a small request?"
"You want to ask why Fengyulou is determined to kill you?"
"No, it's meaningless for a dying person to know. I just want to ask..."
Was Darba's death related to the Wind and Rain Tower?
Hu Yushu was taken aback, not expecting Shen Zhao to ask such a tricky question.
Does this have anything to do with your current situation?
"Of course there is a connection. Please give me a clear answer, Manager Hu."
Hu Yushu turned around: "I'm sorry, I can't answer that question."
"That's a shame."
"What's a pity?"
"If I don't get the answer I want, I'm afraid I won't be able to die in peace. So, I've decided to take a gamble and risk my life to talk to your boss in person."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Zhao instantly transformed into a blur.
In a moment, he had placed his palm on Hu Yushu's shoulder.
"you……"
"Don't move, or your arm will be ruined."
Hu Yushu felt the immense force coming from her left shoulder and couldn't help but furrow her brow.
The two men were momentarily taken aback and instinctively wanted to step forward to rescue Hu Yushu.
"Don't move. If she takes one step forward, I'll kill her."
The threatening remark made the two men stop immediately, not daring to approach even an inch.
"Ah Da, Ah Er, don't worry about me, kill him!"
"But……"
"What? You're not even listening to me anymore? This is an order! We can't let him leave alive, no matter what! Get to it!"
Upon hearing this, Ah Da and Ah Er remained hesitant.
Ada said, "Manager Hu, the lord said that all the brothers and sisters of Fengyulou are one family. We cannot abandon you."
Ah Er: "Yes, Steward Hu, we can't just stand by and watch you die."
Upon hearing this, Shen Zhao chuckled softly, "What a loving family! I'm almost moved to tears."
Manager Hu, can you really bear to see these two loyal disciples suffer the torment of their conscience for the rest of their lives?
"Chu Liuxiang! If you don't kill me today, I will definitely kill you one day!"
"No, sis, what the hell did I do to offend you? Don't act like I wiped out your whole family."
"For the sake of the Lord, for the sake of the Wind and Rain Pavilion, you must die!"
Hu Yushu's expression was almost insane, as terrifying as a ghost.
"stop!"
Suddenly, a soft call rang out, accompanied by fluttering butterflies, and a beautiful figure gracefully appeared in the courtyard corridor.
"Greetings, OP."
Ah Da and Ah Er immediately knelt down to greet them.
"OP, don't worry about me, just kill him."
"shut up!"
Ying Chaoyun stopped Hu Yushu: "I already know the reason for this. Who gave you the right to use your power to launch an attack on Young Master Chu?"
"Master, I'm just trying to help you out. Shen Zhao must have some connection with the Xiongnu."
"Without sufficient evidence, how can you prove that Young Master Chu is a Xiongnu spy?"
"It's better to kill the innocent than to let the guilty go free."
"Enough, Hu Yushu, it's not your place to make decisions about Fengyu Tower yet."
He then said to Shen Zhao, "Young Master Chu, could you please release Steward Hu first? We at Fengyulou will give you a satisfactory explanation for what happened today."
"Since the host has spoken, I, Chu, will give Fengyulou some face."
After saying that, he immediately released Hu Yushu.
"Go back and reflect on your actions. I'll settle accounts with you after I've dealt with things here."
"yes……"
Hu Yushu was unwilling and defiant. Before leaving, she glared fiercely at Shen Zhaohou and left in resentment.
