Chapter 189: I Misjudged
The change in Bai Mo's expression was subtle, but Xiao Ling saw it at a glance. At the same time, he looked at Bai Mo.
Wearing a white robe that represents status.
He is the elder of the Bai family.
It's not surprising. After all, according to King Yan Xuan, the Blood Shadow Tower not only attacked Master Gu's apprentice, but also intended to kill the talented daughter of the Bai family as well!
But Xiao Ling was still very nervous.
After all, this was only his second visit, and his relationship with Gu Heng was not close at all. They only met once and exchanged interests...
Not only that, King Yan Xuan still used the entire Nianling Sect as a handle and bargaining chip to force Xiao Ling to "get" a holy treasure!
Xiao Ling himself was not sure.
"What can I do for you?"
For some reason, Bai Mo had a vague feeling that something was not right about Xiao Ling's arrival, even though he didn't know the purpose of it...
It seemed as if the Bai family would suffer a great loss because of this.
Moreover, Xiao Ling's dress was also very simple, or in other words, especially like a mortal. It seemed that he also understood Gu Heng's thoughts very well, and tried his best to make himself more in line with the image of a mortal in order to interact with Gu Heng.
It seems that this is not the first time he has come.
"Excuse me, I have something very important to show to Master Gu."
After saying that, Xiao Ling walked into the house without looking around. Bai Mo stood beside him, frowning.
He saw that Xiao Ling was holding a thin roll of paper in his hand.
That thing...
When Gu Heng saw the person coming, he thought carefully for a long time before he reacted and said, "Is it Master Xiao Ling?"
No wonder he said that this young man, who looked only a few years older than him, with an imposing and humble appearance, looked a little familiar. It turned out that he was the "boss" who was in charge of a wealthy family at such a young age.
Even though we only met once.
But Gu Heng had a very good impression of him. At least he was young and promising. He was not on the same level as someone like him who could only open a clinic in the streets.
"It's me, Mr. Gu. I didn't expect you to still remember me. I'm really flattered."
Xiao Ling walked up to Gu Heng and bowed deeply without being humble or arrogant.
"I almost forgot it... I've been busy a lot lately, and sometimes I tend to forget things..."
But Gu Heng was still very confused.
What is he here for?
Logically speaking, ever since Qin Yiyao left their family's "Thousand Swords Hunting Ground", the two sides have had no contact with each other.
Of course, Gu Heng didn't want to have any other involvement with this wealthy family.
After all, at the beginning, the two sides almost became enemies. If it weren't for that old man Wu Rong and this young master Xiao who were sensible, there would have been real trouble.
Therefore, Xiao Ling's visit was beyond Gu Heng's expectations."I heard earlier that your disciple was intercepted by a killer halfway after leaving the Thousand Swords Hunting Ground and nearly died."
"Master Xiao isn't very well-informed. This happened several weeks ago."
Gu Heng smiled.
Qin Yiyao next to him just glanced at Xiao Ling casually and then looked away.
It was obvious that she didn't care much about his arrival and was not happy about it.
Moreover, it seemed that this came neither too early nor too late.
That's a bit strange.
She just couldn't tell what was so strange about it.
"It's like this. The Blood Shadow Building that attacked Miss Yi Yao... If Mr. Gu needs anything else, here is their information!"
Xiao Ling presented the paper roll in his hands with both hands.
"Mr. Gu, please have a look."
His tone was steady, but he was nervous inside.
After all, he was not sure whether his arrival and this information were too redundant.
Fortunately, Gu Heng did not throw the paper away, but read it carefully.
Xiao Ling breathed a sigh of relief.
"This is..."
Gu Heng narrowed his eyes slightly.
The scroll was embroidered with gold thread, luxurious yet not at all tacky.
It was filled with information that was obtained from somewhere, including the staff size, structure, and location of the Blood Shadow Building's headquarters...no detail was left out!
This is intelligence!
Moreover, it is extremely detailed information about the killer organization called Blood Shadow Building!
But...how could this be?
Why can Master Xiao come up with such information?
Because according to Gu Heng's own understanding, the family behind Xiao Ling is nothing more than a wealthy family that made a fortune in business. Logically speaking, they also belong to the ranks of mortals, but they are extremely rich. They can even hire low-level cultivators, and can even spend a lot of money to send their descendants to some sect to practice.
The level of the Blood Shadow Building is different.
That is a huge assassin force that dominates the Riyan Dynasty and no one dares to challenge it!
Gu Heng remained silent and put the paper down.
His first doubt was...is this thing real?
Because Xiao Ling doesn't look like someone who can get this kind of information, he is not qualified to have access to such a deadly secret.
But he came all the way here just to fool Gu Heng?Not likely.
It's not like I'm bored.
"Mr. Gu, how...how is it?"
Xiao Ling couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, because Gu Heng's suspicious and even uncertain eyes made him feel inexplicably depressed and panicked as if something had been exposed.
He tried to stay calm, but couldn't control the rolling of his throat and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
"Master Xiao, I can't tell whether this thing of yours is real or fake!"
"Take a look."
Gu Heng handed the roll of information to Bai Mo.
He had no way to verify whether these contents were true or false, but it didn't matter. He would show it to the old servant of the Bai family. If the Bai family was launching a heavy attack on the Blood Shadow Tower, then some of the information must be correct.
When Bai Mo saw it, his eyes widened immediately!
Because the information above is absolutely true!
Even the Blood Shadow Tower and its hidden branch altars were clearly written, and the locations of the branch altars that had already been removed were included.
"This, this is... You actually have such detailed information about the Blood Shadow Building?!"
He looked at Xiao Ling in shock.
Where did you get this Nian Ling Zong?
Even though the Bai family tried so hard to dig out the Blood Shadow Tower, the results have not been very good so far.
But he came up with such explosive information all of a sudden?
Even the headquarters position is available? !
Gu Heng's expression changed slightly: "Oh? Are the things above real?"
"Absolutely true! There are many overlaps with what my Bai family has found out!"
Bai Mo nodded firmly.
"I see... But, Master Xiao, you don't look like someone who can get this kind of information."
Gu Heng's gaze fell on Xiao Ling again, but this time, he stood up and looked at Xiao Ling very carefully.
His impression of Xiao Ling began to waver.
I originally thought that he was just a young, sensible and promising young man from a wealthy family.
But now.
Gu Heng suspected that he had really made a mistake.
Hiss, this is strange...
