Shang Beiyu's murderous intent surged, his murderous aura so overwhelming that even the roadside weeds couldn't lift their heads: "Song Huiru, do you know what the consequences will be if I'm not interested in your clues?"
“I value my life, and Your Majesty will certainly not regret giving up on chasing that bandit,” Song Huiru said confidently.
Shang Beiyu clenched his fists tightly behind his back, but in the end, he followed Song Huiru's wishes and made a vow to Heaven.
A sense of victory washed over Song Huiru, but her face regained its gentle and ingratiating expression. She approached Shang Beiyu and said, "I know that Your Excellency is looking for someone who can make the Moonstone react. The reason why only my sister and I in my Song family react to the Moonstone is because my mother is not the daughter of the wealthy Wang family."
It is said that my mother's clan had a rule that forbade women from the clan to marry men from the imperial court. And my father could not marry a woman without a proper background or status.
So after my mother was expelled from the clan, my father bribed the wealthy Wang family to give her the identity of a Wang family daughter.
"Then where did your mother come from?" Little Cocoon asked anxiously.
"I heard it's a mysterious assassin organization in the martial arts world called the Eastern Dragon Gate," Song Huiru said.
"East Dragon Gate?" Shang Beiyu was slightly surprised.
Would the Yun family, who once considered themselves a righteous sect of immortals, engage in the business of hiring murderers?
But it seems that doing so does indeed serve to deceive people, at least he had never suspected anything in this regard before.
Song Huiru overheard her father secretly paying respects to her mother when he mentioned this news. She didn't know if the Donglongmen organization really existed in the martial arts world.
Song Huiru looked at Shang Beiyu nervously: "Your Excellency, do you know about the East Dragon Gate?"
"The largest and most mysterious assassin organization in the martial arts world, who doesn't know it?" Little Cocoon retorted dismissively to Song Huiru.
Shang Beiyu glanced westward reluctantly, then turned back to ask Xiao Jianzi, "Have you investigated the rest of the Song family?"
“Apart from the clue Miss Song mentioned, we’ve investigated almost everyone else, and there’s nothing suspicious,” Little Cocoon replied.
Shang Beiyu closed his eyes and turned around, his whole body exuding a chilling aura that kept strangers at bay: "Then we will do our best to investigate the East Dragon Gate."
“But Your Excellency, I’ve heard that the assassins of the Eastern Dragon Gate who roam the martial world are all orphans adopted by the Eastern Dragon Gate. The real members of the Eastern Dragon Gate don’t roam the martial world, and no one knows where they are hiding,” Little Cocoon said with difficulty.
Shang Beiyu turned around with a sneer, pointed at Song Huiru and said, "Not involved in the martial arts world? If not involved in the martial arts world, how did his mother meet Lord Song, get expelled from the clan, and marry Lord Song?"
Little Cocoon: "Your subordinate knows his mistake, Your Majesty. Even if I have to dig three feet into the ground and turn the whole world upside down, I will find the Donglongmen clan."
Shang Beiyu did not answer, and turned away indifferently.
Song Huiru jogged a few steps to catch up with Shang Beiyu, wanting to go back with him.
Shang Beiyu's voice was as cold as ice: "Before you reach the Foundation Establishment stage, do not appear before me again. I fear I may not be able to resist killing you."
Song Huiru froze on the spot: "..."
It felt like I'd shot myself in the foot, and it was even more unbelievable:
Why doesn't he play by the rules?
Since he has already given up chasing the bandits and paid the price, shouldn't he cooperate sincerely with her?
"Your Excellency..." Song Huiru wanted to say something more.
Without turning his head, Shang Beiyu said, "I won't remind you a second time. If you're tired of living, then come along."
