"Where are you going?" Xu Yuehuai asked, looking at him. "I have some things to take care of," Qi Guze said. "I'll be back as soon as possible."
“I’ll go with you,” Xu Yuehuai said. “If that person tries to harm you, I can help you.”
"No need," Qi Guze shook his head. "Leave this matter to me, you don't need to worry."
Although Xu Yuehuai was worried, she knew that his decision was very firm, so she did not insist any further.
After Qi Guze arrived outside the city, he saw a man standing on the ruins. He was dressed in black and wore a black mask, revealing only his eyes.
"You've finally arrived," the man said, looking at Qi Guze. "I've been waiting for you for a long time."
"Are you the mastermind behind this incident?" Qi Guze asked, looking at him. "What exactly is your purpose?"
"Purpose?" The man sneered. "My purpose is to ensure you die without a burial place."
Qi Guze was startled when he heard his words.
He never imagined that the person behind this hated him so much.
"Do you know why I hate you?" the man continued. "Have you forgotten? You killed my parents, leaving them with no place to be buried."
Qi Guze was stunned when he heard his words.
He suddenly had a severe headache, and some bloody images flashed through his mind. He seemed to remember some things, but they were very vague.
"You remember now, don't you?" the man said with a smile. "I knew you would remember, after all, you'll never forget these blood debts."
Qi Guze covered his head. "No, this is impossible. How could I do such a thing?"
"Why not?" the man sneered. "You did all of this yourself, and you can never deny it."
"I..." Qi Guze opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say. His memory seemed to have suddenly become very chaotic, as if he had forgotten some things.
"Never mind," the man said, looking at him. "Anyway, you've already remembered some things, so I won't waste my breath on you."
As he spoke, he pulled a dagger from his pocket and charged at Qi Guze.
Although Qi Guze didn't know how to deal with it, he instinctively dodged the person's attack.
However, that person was very cunning and always managed to launch an attack when he wasn't paying attention.
During the fight, Qi Guze also discovered that the person did not seem to be an ordinary assassin; his martial arts skills seemed to be extremely high.
This made him even more confused. Who was behind this? And why did they hate him so much?
"You think you can beat me?" the man looked at him and laughed. "I'm telling you, it's impossible."
As he spoke, he slapped Qi Guze with his palm.
Qi Guze felt a sharp pain in his chest and was sent flying backward, crashing heavily to the ground.
"You..." Qi Guze clutched his chest, feeling an unbearable difficulty breathing. The person walked up to him. "You think you can catch me? Let me tell you, that's impossible."
As he spoke, he prepared to assassinate Qi Guze.
However, at that moment, a dark figure suddenly rushed out from the shadows and stabbed him in the back.
The man hadn't expected anyone to ambush him, so he couldn't dodge in time and was stabbed in the back.
He staggered and almost fell to the ground.
"Who?" the man roared angrily, "How dare you ambush me?" But the only reply was a cold voice, "Who I am is not important, what is important is that you have offended someone you shouldn't have."
He turned his head sharply and saw a masked man standing in front of him.
"Who are you?" the man asked, looking at him. "Are you also Qi Guze's accomplice?"
"It doesn't matter whether it's true or not," the masked man said. "Anyway, you've offended someone you shouldn't have, so today is your death day."
As he spoke, he stabbed the man with his knife.
Although the man was highly skilled in martial arts, he did not expect the masked man to be so powerful, so he was unable to dodge in time and was stabbed in the chest.
"You..." He clutched his chest, feeling that even breathing had become extremely difficult.
"Die." The masked man looked at him coldly and delivered another blow.
The person stared wide-eyed, feeling that everything in front of them had become extremely blurry.
He seemed to see his parents standing in front of him, and he also seemed to see Qi Guze mocking him.
In his final moments before losing consciousness, he only managed to utter one sentence: "I won't let you get away with this..."
The masked man looked at his corpse and breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, he arrived in time; otherwise, Qi Guze would have been in danger.
He glanced at the corpse. "You're unlucky; you can only die here."
With that, he turned and left. At that moment, Qi Guze slowly opened his eyes.
He saw the man lying on the ground with a knife stuck in his chest.
"You killed him?" Qi Guze was stunned. "Who are you? Why did you save me?"
“You don’t need to know who I am,” the masked man said. “It’s enough that you know I’m the one who saved you.”
Qi Guze also realized that the person behind this must be very powerful, which is why they sent such a highly skilled martial artist to deal with him.
"You must be more careful from now on," the masked man said, looking at him. "Don't let something like this happen again."
Qi Guze nodded, "I understand, thank you for saving me."
Although he didn't know who the masked man was, Qi Guze knew he must be a good person.
In the days that followed, Qi Guze continued to strengthen the security measures at the mansion.
As soon as any suspicious person appears, he immediately sends people to investigate.
However, that person seemed to have noticed their actions, so they never showed up.
Qi Guze and Xu Yuehuai were also quite helpless, as they knew that person would definitely make another move.
But they did not give up; instead, they continued to strengthen security measures at the mansion.
They knew that if they could capture that one person, they could unravel all the mysteries.
In the days that followed, Qi Guze continued to investigate the affairs of those maids.
"Aze, what's wrong?" Xu Yuehuai asked, noticing his furrowed brow. "Are you still thinking about those maids?"
"Hmm." Qi Guze nodded. "I always felt that there was something wrong with those maids, but I didn't notice anything unusual when they fell down."
Xu Yuehuai thought for a moment, "We'll investigate slowly when the time comes."
"Okay," Qi Guze said. "I'll have someone investigate this thoroughly."
