Chapter 87: Why, you are not convinced

Behind the Pearl and Jade Pavilion, there was a small building. Huo Xiu was in this building, usually drinking wine here, and ordinary people rarely came to see Huo Xiu. However, there were two guests in the building today, Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou.

Huo Xiu poured wine for Lu Xiaofeng and said: "You were able to come to me in a crisis, and you can be considered to have a life-and-death friendship with me, Huo Xiu."

Lu Xiaofeng smiled, then stared at Huo Xiu and said: "I have many friends, but few friends like you. I don't want you to die for nothing."

Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou heard the news of the Mount Emei Sect, saying that Dugu Yihe was already dead, and immediately looked for Huo Xiu. Yan Tieshan and Dugu Yihe were both dead. Among the old ministers of the Jin Peng Dynasty, only Huo Xiu remained.

Huo Xiu took Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou here.

In this small building, Huo Xiu had already shown Lu Xiaofeng several "Big Jin Peng Kings," making Lu Xiaofeng doubt the authenticity of the Big Jin Peng King he had encountered, and even doubt "Shangguan Danfeng" and Shangguan Feiyan. Only then did he sit down and say: "The wealth left by the Jin Peng Dynasty back then was used to restore the country, but the Jin Peng Prince had no intention of restoring the country and huddled on the side to live a stable life. The three of us took the wealth of the Jin Peng Dynasty and started our own businesses."

One established the Pearl and Jade Pavilion.

One became the leader of the Mount Emei Sect.

One became the richest man in the Great Ming.

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Logically speaking, the secret of the Jin Peng Dynasty shouldn't be known by outsiders."

Huo Xiu had four fake Jin Peng Kings here.

"Yes."

Huo Xiu said: "But someone knows. That person doesn't show his true face. Every time these people see him, his appearance and height are different. If it weren't for his speaking voice and language habits, these fake Jin Peng Kings wouldn't know they were seeing the same person."

Lu Xiaofeng nodded again.

This matter of the Jin Peng Dynasty was more complicated than Lu Xiaofeng imagined.

"I have always suspected the authenticity of that 【Shangguan Danfeng】 and wanted to catch her by my side to investigate thoroughly."

Huo Xiu said on his own: "It's just that she is by Gu Qing's side, making it impossible for me to start."

Lu Xiaofeng heard Gu Qing's name and lightly twitched his eyebrows, asking Huo Xiu about Gu Qing's news.

"I don't know."

Huo Xiu said: "But there is a guess. It is said that the Green Clothes Tower Master is very mysterious and also doesn't show his true face. Gu Qing killed the people of three Green Clothes Towers when he first entered the martial arts world, but the Green Clothes Tower didn't seek revenge on Gu Qing. From an outsider's point of view, it seems the Green Clothes Tower is afraid of Gu Qing. But I think, that group of desperate people, who aren't even afraid of death, why would they be afraid of Gu Qing?"

Huo Xiu stopped there, but it made Lu Xiaofeng suspect that Gu Qing might be the Green Clothes Tower Master.

"But if Gu Qing is the Green Clothes Tower Master..."

Hua Manlou felt it didn't make sense and said: "Gu Qing's strength doesn't fear Dugu Yihe. If he wanted to gather the wealth of the Jin Peng Dynasty, he wouldn't need Shangguan Feiyan and Shangguan Danfeng to invite me and Lu Xiaofeng."

Gu Qing could just fight his way over with his own strength.

"So I think, perhaps it's two groups of people."

Huo Xiu said: "The ones who invited you are one group, and Gu Qing is another. It's just that after Gu Qing arrived at the Pearl and Jade Pavilion, he controlled the situation."

Lu Xiaofeng remembered Shangguan Danfeng suddenly becoming enthusiastic about Gu Qing, feeling that it all made sense.

Shangguan Danfeng might be the implementer of the conspiracy, while Gu Qing, this Green Clothes Tower Master, saw through the conspiracy on the side, killed the people of three Green Clothes Towers, used this identity to gain Shangguan Danfeng's trust, then arrived by Shangguan Danfeng's side, and controlled Shangguan Danfeng...

"Could it be that this Shangguan Danfeng making me jealous is actually a distress signal?"

Lu Xiaofeng even thought in this direction.

Huo Xiu chuckled inwardly, picked up the wine bowl by his hand, and drank it in one gulp. Gu Qing was an accident, but now he was framed by Huo Xiu as the Green Clothes Tower Master. Then Huo Xiu would use the hands of Lu Xiaofeng, Hua Manlou, and Ximen Chuixue to eliminate Gu Qing and Huo Tianqing, absorbing the three "uniquenesses" of the Jin Peng Dynasty that were left outside.

Huo Xiu's hand in his sleeve clenched slightly.

Plans are often very good.

But in this small building, a person appeared whom Lu Xiaofeng, Hua Manlou, and Huo Xiu never expected. This person was dressed in black, with a graceful figure, easily passing through 108 mechanisms, arriving at the underground palace of this small building, arriving in front of Huo Xiu, bowing gracefully, and calling him Master.

This person was "Shangguan Danfeng."

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Huo Xiu's face changed instantly, feeling that his plan had an extraordinary change.

The script he had planned hadn't been implemented yet, but it had been torn up.

"Master, originally I shouldn't have come to trouble Master, but Huo Tianqing brought the people of the Heavenly Bird Sect to attack, so I could only flee here in a panic."

"Shangguan Danfeng's" voice wasn't disguised.

Hua Manlou was surprised and said: "You are Feiyan!"

"I'm sorry."

"Shangguan Danfeng" tore off her disguise, revealing Shangguan Feiyan's true face, and said apologetically to Hua Manlou: "You are a good person, I really didn't want to lie to you."

Shangguan Danfeng was Shangguan Feiyan.

After Lu Xiaofeng saw this scene, thinking that he was still sighing yesterday that he and Hua Manlou had been heartbroken by two women, he didn't expect it was the same person.

Shangguan Feiyan suddenly coming here to expose herself also immediately let Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou reach the truth. Although they hadn't fully figured it out, they at least understood most of it.

Lu Xiaofeng looked at Huo Xiu with a gloomy face, never expecting that this brother was the mastermind behind the scenes.

In this small building, one after another, the people of the Heavenly Bird Sect followed the traces and arrived at the underground palace. The person in front was Huo Tianqing, beside him was Guo Daxia Shanxi Yan, and then the Northwest Two Beauties and the Seven Heroes of the Marketplace. After all these people arrived in front of Huo Xiu, Huo Xiu knew the situation was completely wrong.

"Why did they come!"

Huo Xiu said angrily.

Shangguan Feiyan was on the verge of tears and said: "I just wrote a letter about how to trick Huo Tianqing and gave it to Guo Daxia Shanxi Yan."

In this letter, Shangguan Feiyan turned over a new leaf, saying how she was guided by Huo Xiu to deceive Huo Tianqing, etc. These people under the Heavenly Bird Sect came here originally to vent their anger for Huo Tianqing and find trouble with Gu Qing. Seeing such a change, they felt Shangguan Feiyan and Huo Xiu were hateful, making them unable to help but rush in.

"Master, this matter is our fault."

Shangguan Feiyan's attitude was very good, but she stood honestly behind Hua Manlou.

With this group of people all arriving in front of Huo Xiu, Huo Xiu already knew the situation was gone.

A pair of eyes swept over everyone in front of him. Huo Xiu suddenly moved in his heart and shouted: "It's Gu Qing, it's Gu Qing operating you!"

Basically all the people involved in the case were here. The only one not here was Gu Qing.

Shangguan Feiyan and Gu Qing were the closest!

At this moment, Huo Xiu felt that Gu Qing was the mastermind behind the scenes, unknowingly pushing him to this situation.

"This was all done by Gu Qing!"

Huo Xiu said angrily.

"Winning by surprise has been the case since ancient times."

Gu Qing's voice was faint, coming from outside the hall. With every word he said, the voice got ten feet closer. This heavy voice echoed in the small building, saying calmly: "From now on, the Green Clothes Tower will be forgotten. In the final analysis, it is because you offended me, Gu Qing, alone."

After saying this, Gu Qing had already appeared in front of Huo Xiu.

Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou looked at each other, and the surrounding Heavenly Bird Sect people were also full of horror. Gu Qing's voice came from far away on the ground, echoing, and rushed into the underground palace, which was already shocking internal energy. And even more shocking was, they were talking in the underground palace of the Green Clothes Tower, how did Gu Qing know on the ground?

Gu Qing smiled on his face. When Shangguan Feiyan came here, he had already entered the underground palace together, but he huddled on the side. Hearing Huo Xiu realize that he was the one pushing it, Gu Qing immediately left the underground palace, ran far away, and then used internal energy to vibrate, making a brilliant appearance.

This kind of appearance method really stunned the people in the scene.

Gu Qing watched Huo Xiu's eyes widen, defeated very unwillingly, and asked: "Why, you are not convinced?"
