Faced with Guan Yan's pointed question, the members of the Azure Dragon Army fell silent.
Indeed, they also felt that the possibility of this family annihilation case being committed by a single person was too small. With so many people in the Gongsun family, to kill them all without letting anyone escape, it would require at least two or three forces no weaker than the Gongsun family to join forces.
For one person to think they could do this is simply a pipe dream.
The entire Gongsun family, plus all their guards, servants, and maids, would take half a day to kill even if they just stood still and let others kill them.
Shi Yuanliang gave Guan Yan a deep look. He had to admit that the woman in front of him was very shrewd. With just one sentence, she cleared most of the suspicion against Dingtianque.
"Would it be convenient for us to go in and inspect Dingtianque?"
"Welcome!" Guan Yan stepped aside to make way for the Canglong Army members.
Shi Yuanliang led his men to begin inspecting Dingtianque. Once inside, they discovered that Guan Yan's words were true; she had not deceived them. There were indeed many wounded inside Dingtianque.
Moreover, these people alone are not enough to destroy the Gongsun family...
It's not that Shi Yuanliang is being harsh, but he felt that even if these wounded and sick people attacked the Gongsun family, they couldn't possibly wipe out the entire family.
Furthermore, considering the traces of demonic energy found within the Gongsun family's residence, Shi Yuanliang is more inclined to believe that the crime was committed by an alien race rather than a human.
"Walk!"
Shi Yuanliang led his men away, and Ding Tianque's suspicions were clearly cleared.
Guan Yan breathed a sigh of relief, a hint of lingering fear in her eyes. Those were the Four Symbols Legion. Even if Ding Tianque had the slightest suspicion, Shi Yuanliang would have taken her down without hesitation, without needing any evidence.
Fortunately, Qiao Suinian had anticipated this. He didn't tell the people of Dingtianque anything. There are two kinds of people who can perfectly keep secrets: the dead who know the secret and the living who know nothing at all.
Only after Shi Yuanliang and the others had gone far away did Guan Yan immediately close the door and find Qiao Suinian to ask him questions.
"What exactly happened? The Gongsun family was wiped out? Did you do it?"
"I don't know! I'm not Qiao Suinian!" Bedaiku, who had transformed into Qiao Suinian, blinked, looking completely innocent.
"Then who are you?"
"Bedeku!"
"Overalls? I play basketball! Stop talking nonsense! Tell the truth!"
Guan Yan rolled her eyes, exuding a captivating charm. If the real Qiao Suinian were here, she would probably have executed him on the spot.
"You've come at just the right time! I really don't know anything. I'm so hungry. Can you give me something to eat?" Bedaiku rubbed his stomach. He was starving. He had been hanging for two days and one night. How could he possibly know what Qiao Suinian had done?
Guan Yan frowned slightly, then looked puzzled, because although Qiao Suinian's face was correct, her behavior and speaking habits were quite different from before.
"Wait here, I'll go get you something to eat."
Guan Yan acted quickly, and soon brought over a delicious meal of three dishes and a soup, along with a large bowl of white rice.
However, when she placed the food in front of Bedeku, Bedeku covered her mouth and almost vomited.
You must understand that Bedeku's true form is a ghoul. Making a ghoul eat human food is just putting him in a difficult position.
It's like you've been starving for days, and then someone brings you a huge bowl of cat food and tells you to eat it all up.
"What's wrong? Doesn't it suit your taste?" Guan Yan asked, feeling increasingly uneasy about Qiao Suinian.
“I…I don’t eat this.” Bedeku shook his head repeatedly.
"Really? By the way, do you remember what my favorite position is?" Guan Yan blinked with a smile.
"Position? What position?" Bedeku was stunned for a moment, but the next second, an extremely sharp dagger was silently pointed at his Adam's apple.
"You're not Qiao Suinian! Who are you?!" Guan Yan's expression instantly turned cold, and a murderous intent appeared in her eyes.
"I...I...I can't say!" Bedeku dared not utter a sound.
"Can't talk? Then die." Guan Yan didn't hesitate at all when she started to strike. Just as she was about to stab the other person in the throat, a large hand grabbed her wrist.
"Alright, Guan Yan, don't make things difficult for him."
A figure draped in a black robe appeared silently. Qiao Suinian's face was still somewhat pale, but she was much better, and the bloodstains on her body had been completely washed away.
"Years?"
Guan Yan was stunned. She looked at Bei Daiku and then at Qiao Suinian, her face full of doubt. How could there be two people in the world who looked exactly alike?
Twin brothers? But Qiao Suinian had never told her that before. She quickly pressed for details, but Qiao Suinian just smiled and said it was a secret without further explanation.
"Ge Liefeng's injuries should be almost healed, right? Have him come to see me," Qiao Suinian instructed.
“Okay.” Guan Yan nodded. She was a smart woman, and since Qiao Suinian wasn’t going to say anything, she wouldn’t ask again.
Soon, Ge Liefeng limped over. All four of his limbs had been reattached, and with Zuo Fangya's treatment, he was able to walk again.
"Sir, you wanted to see me."
Ge Liefeng was obsequious and fawning, his face pale.
However, Qiao Suinian's pale face was due to excessive blood loss, while Ge Liefeng's pale face was purely due to shock; the Gongsun family had actually been wiped out!
He suddenly felt very fortunate that he had chosen to side with Dingtianque instead of the Gongsun family; otherwise, he would have been among the crowds and would have had a private seat. It was truly a close call with death.
