Chapter 565: The Fake Cannot Be Real!

"Lord Shen, every word I say is true!"

"I know everything you say is true!"

Withdrawing his Mental Power, Shen Yu naturally knew that what the other party said was true; he had just forcibly invaded the depths of Li Zehai's mind, which was enough to prove he was not lying.

It was just a pity; he had assumed the other party would have at least planted some Mental Seed in Li Zehai to prevent him from being mentally controlled.

Or perhaps, just like the ones encountered before, it would explode the moment Li Zehai's mind was invaded by external mental power.

As long as that were the case, the Mental Seed left behind would more or less have some residue, and Shen Yu could follow that trail to find the person behind the scenes.

But despite all his calculations, he never expected that the other party had left absolutely nothing on Li Zehai.

They were truly cautious to the extreme, knowing that the more one does, the more mistakes one makes; only by leaving the smallest trace could the possibility of exposure be minimized.

To be honest, Shen Yu felt it was still unknown whether this Second Master Feng was truly the person behind Li Zehai as Li Zehai had claimed.

How could such a cautious person leave such a huge flaw, and even let Li Zehai notice it?

Waving his hand lightly toward Li Zehai, a surge of vitality instantly poured into his body, like a parched field meeting a sweet rain, and he instantly regained his vigor.

Li Zehai, who had been on the verge of death, saw his pale complexion rapidly turn rosy, and the injuries on his body were also healing at high speed.

"Lord Shen, you!" He did not know why Shen Yu would save him; one had to know that for the things he had done, dying eight or ten times would not be excessive.

"Remember, you have never seen me today!"

Sweeping his gaze over everyone present, a special Mental Power from Shen Yu instantly enveloped them all.

In an instant, everyone felt their brains grow dizzy and heavy, as if they had forgotten something the moment Shen Yu's words fell.

"Today, the Black-Clad Guard surrounded the Xinghai Gang, and you few disguised yourselves as ordinary gang members and successfully escaped after a fierce battle!"

"The reason you were able to survive was due to your own efforts. Also, in order to take revenge on the Feng Family, Li Zehai specifically left the evidence he collected against the Feng Family at the Xinghai Gang."

Under the sound of Shen Yu's voice, everyone felt a sense of confusion, and their minds began to automatically fill in everything that had just happened.

That was right, the Black-Clad Guard had just surrounded their Xinghai Gang, and this matter had happened so suddenly that they had no time to escape.

So they could only find a way to disguise themselves as ordinary gang members and, taking advantage of the Black-Clad Guard's lack of attention, escaped in one go.

It was just a pity that the great foundation of the Xinghai Gang had completely disappeared just like that. And all their long-term planning had turned into bubbles; they were truly unwilling.

With a flash of his figure, Shen Yu disappeared from the spot, and Li Zehai and Mo Li disappeared along with him.

At this time, there were still sounds of fighting coming from outside, but if one listened carefully, one would know it was a one-sided slaughter.

At the very beginning, the experts of the Xinghai Gang had been mostly wiped out by Shen Yu in one wave; the remaining people could fight a winning battle, but once they encountered a tough opponent, they would only fall into chaos and could not form an effective resistance at all.

At this time, the gang members of the Xinghai Gang outside had long since been routed; facing such trash, the Black-Clad Guard naturally captured them with ease.

Right now, they were more like cleaning up the battlefield, and the leading Thousand Household of the Black-Clad Guard was in high spirits: "Search for me, search carefully, do not let a single corner go!"

"Make them surrender obediently; kill anyone who resists!"

"Who goes there?" Just at this moment, the Thousand Household of the Black-Clad Guard suddenly felt a powerful aura approaching and instantly drew the blade in his hand to stand guard.

The Black-Clad Guards surrounding him also immediately stood on guard one after another. Soon, within their line of sight, they saw a large group of experts rushing toward them.

When these people rushed near the Xinghai Gang and saw the Black-Clad Guards who were already cleaning up the battlefield, their expressions also changed slightly.

However, when they wanted to approach again, the Black-Clad Guards on the perimeter immediately set up a formation and stood ready.

"Who are you people? Retreat, retreat immediately!"

"This Thousand Household, I am Elder Feng Buying of the Feng Family!"

"Elder of the Feng Family? Could it be the Xichuan Feng Family?" Facing the famous Feng Family, this Thousand Household did not dare to put on a cold face; that was a top-tier family in Xichuan.

However, although he knew this, he did not slack off in the slightest, nor did he lower his guard. They were following Lord Shen, and Lord Shen was right at the scene; he might be watching them.

At this time, not only could they not be timid, they had to be tough!

"So it is Elder Feng. I wonder what business the Feng Family has in sending so many experts here?"

After stopping from afar, Feng Buying shouted loudly: "We are here to help!"

"The Xinghai Gang has plagued the region for years and committed countless evils; I don't know how many commoners have been harmed. My Feng Family has long wanted to eliminate them to rid the people of a scourge."

"However, they colluded with the Governor He Yuan, and their daily actions were all under the banner of the Governor's Office, so my Feng Family had no justification to act!"

"Today, the Family Head learned that Lord Shen was going to execute the Xinghai Gang, so he specially sent us to assist. To eliminate such a gang that harms the people, my Feng Family must help out no matter what!"

"Is that so? Then I must really thank the Feng Family Patriarch for his kindness!"

Walking slowly out from the Xinghai Gang, Shen Yu's gaze fell on Feng Buying, making him feel completely uncomfortable.

Seeing Shen Yu appear, all the Black-Clad Guards immediately saluted: "My Lord!"

"So it is Lord Shen in person. Greetings to the Governor!" Saluting Shen Yu slightly, Feng Buying immediately replied: "If the Family Head knew that Lord Shen was here, he would definitely have come in person!"

"Is that so? The Feng Family is worthy of being the Feng Family; it is truly worthy of being the conscience of Xichuan!"

"My Lord, you are too kind; this is all what my Feng Family should do!"

"Give you an inch and you take a mile!" Holding Li Zehai's inner lining in his hand, Shen Yu threw it over: "But Elder Feng, I also found this in the Xinghai Gang!"

"Can you help me explain what these are?"

"Lord Shen, isn't this just an ordinary piece of clothing lining? There is nothing special about it at all!"

Taking the clothing thrown by Shen Yu, Feng Buying looked it over and could not see anything special.

This was just an ordinary piece of clothing; could this kid be playing with him?

"Elder Feng, look carefully again; see if there are words at the seams!"

"There really are words. What is written on this?"

Carefully identifying the dense, tiny characters on it, the more Feng Buying looked, the more shocked he became, and the more he looked, the more uneasy he felt.

After a long while, Feng Buying threw the clothing in his hand hard onto the ground, but his eyes revealed a trace of panic.

"Lord Shen, this is slander, absolutely slander! My Feng Family has had a good reputation for so many years, as everyone knows. When fellow members of the Jianghu mention my Feng Family, which one of them does not praise us?"

"My Feng Family is absolutely not that kind of family; this is them framing my Feng Family. You should let Li Zehai come out to confront us!"

"Li Zehai has already run away, and there isn't even an Elder left here; it is completely empty!"

"Lord Shen, you are discerning and insightful; you wouldn't fall for such an obvious attempt to sow discord, would you?"

"Elder Feng, whether this is slander or not will be known as soon as it is investigated!"

With a cold snort, Shen Yu shouted directly, "Men, order Liang Ruyue to lead all Black-Clad Guards to surround the Feng Family, and kill anyone who obstructs them without exception!"

"In addition, order the army outside the city to immediately surround the Feng Family's manor outside the city, and search it thoroughly inside and out for me!"

"Lord Shen, my Feng Family is at least considered a prestigious and influential clan; isn't it inappropriate for you to send troops to conduct a forced search like this?"

"How is it inappropriate? Elder Feng, I am doing this to prove the innocence of your Feng Family; is there any better way than this?"

"Elder Feng, you must believe that the pure remain pure and the corrupt remain corrupt, and you must also trust this official's eyes. What is real cannot be fake, and what is fake cannot be real!"
