Chapter 40

"What did you say?!"

"Young Master Mo, when fighting the Xiongnu army back then, there were hidden circumstances?!"

"Young Master Mo and the soldiers of the Annan Army died due to schemes and plots?!"

"How is this possible?!"

Gao Jianli was completely stunned!

He truly did not know about this matter, and in fact...

he had never thought too much in this direction, always believing that the death of Young Master Mo was normal—that he had fallen in battle due to being outmatched!

However,

what this Ghost was saying now completely overturned his understanding!

Seeing Gao Jianli’s shocked appearance, Ying Mo’s brows furrowed slightly.

He was very certain of the character of his master, Gao Jianli.

As long as Gao Jianli said he didn't know, then he truly must not have known.

It was just that,

regarding this matter,

whether Ying Zheng knew,

and whether he had investigated it over these years, Ying Mo could not be certain!

Ying Zheng’s thoughts were as deep as the sea; no one could easily fathom them!

Therefore,

Ying Mo did not vent his anger over this matter onto Master Gao Jianli.

It was just that,

whenever he thought of this, his heart remained unsettled!

Back then,

before he set out on the expedition,

everything had been arranged by Ying Zheng. He had suddenly received orders and immediately led the army to the northern frontier of the Great Qin!

Even the initial march map had not been planned by Ying Zheng and his think tank.

He only needed to,

lead the army, attack according to the march map, and launch a surprise attack on the Xiongnu army!

However,

he was marching according to the map Ying Zheng gave him, and before he even reached the battlefield, he was ambushed!

All of this was too coincidental, too bizarre!

Precisely because of this,

Ying Mo was one hundred percent certain that there was a conspiracy, and that he and the Annan Army soldiers under his command had been betrayed by people of the Great Qin!

"My most proud disciple..."

"Died because of a conspiracy? He wasn't... defeated by the enemy in battle?!"

"This..."

Gao Jianli saw Ying Mo silent, his eyes flickering with light, his expression shifting uncertainly.

The aura on his body became surging and powerful at this moment.

In his eyes, a surging, roaring fighting spirit bloomed, and his eyes even turned somewhat bloodshot.

The terrifying killing intent,

almost condensed into substance,

making the air around him turn gloomy and cold!

He stared fixedly at Ying Mo, gritting his teeth as he said, "Young Master Mo, died under a conspiracy—is this certain?"

"Now, what have you found out?"

"Have you found out who exactly harmed Young Master Mo and sent tens of thousands of Annan Army soldiers to their deaths?!"

Gao Jianli felt for Young Master Mo.

This disciple with exceptional talent.

He liked him from the bottom of his heart and intended to pass on everything he had learned in his life to him.

Five years ago,

upon receiving the news that Young Master Mo had fallen on the battlefield, Gao Jianli had been depressed for a long time.

But thinking that,

his disciple had not disgraced him, and even when driven into a desperate situation, had still fought bravely and not surrendered.

He felt a sense of pride in his heart, and also a trace of comfort.

Slowly,

his grief and emotions were smoothed over.

However,

now that he had suddenly learned,

his precious disciple Young Master Mo did not necessarily die on a normal battlefield, but was harmed by a conspiracy...

Gao Jianli’s mood exploded, and the killing intent in his heart surged like a tidal wave!

"Heh,"

"Otherwise, who do you think I am avenging?"

Ying Mo looked at the murderous look in Gao Jianli’s eyes, his own eyes flickering slightly. After taking a slight breath, he nodded gently.

It was a definitive reply to him:

Young Master Mo,

as well as the Annan Army, were indeed harmed by others, murdered!

As soon as Ying Mo said this,

"Swish!!!"

Gao Jianli’s face instantly turned as gloomy as water, and cold light shot from the depths of his eyes.

Seeing him like this,

Ying Mo’s gaze flickered.

Afterward, he did not intend to say anything more, nor did he intend to completely expose his identity right now.

Because,

he had to hide,

the news that Young Master Mo was not yet dead!

In order to,

make those behind-the-scenes masterminds, who were hiding in the dark and might strike at any time, lower their guard.

Only in this way,

could all the masterminds be dragged out and killed cleanly.

Ying Mo did not intend to say more. After staring at Gao Jianli for a moment, he signaled to Lu Li.

However,

at this moment,

Gao Jianli suddenly spoke,

"Wait a moment!!!"

A sharp killing intent appeared in Gao Jianli’s eyes as he called out to stop Ying Mo.

"Hmm?"

Ying Mo glanced at Gao Jianli, somewhat puzzled.

"Boom!!!"

A terrifying killing intent instantly erupted from Gao Jianli.

Deep in Gao Jianli’s eyes, terrifying killing intent bloomed, as if countless sword lights were flashing.

He gritted his teeth and said to Ying Mo, "If you have investigated any accurate intelligence regarding Young Master Mo being harmed..."

"I implore you to tell me!"

"I would be immensely grateful and would owe you a favor!"

Gao Jianli’s reaction surprised Ying Mo.

A favor from Gao Jianli carried a lot of weight!

"Why?"

Ying Mo asked Gao Jianli with some curiosity.

"Young Master Mo is the student I, Gao Jianli, value the most. If he was bullied and plotted against..."

The sky-high murderous Gao Jianli said with murderous intent, "I, Gao Jianli, will definitely seek justice for him!"

"I will turn the world upside down!"

Gao Jianli’s voice was sonorous and powerful, and the killing intent in his eyes was fierce and intense.

Clearly,

he was serious!!!
