If something really happened to that person, his mother would probably implicate the MO family.

“My mother dotes on Chai Qingyu even more than she does on me,” he continued.

An Jiuyue raised her eyebrows.

The worst thing about dealing with trash was being related to it. These relationships that were hard to sever would give anyone a headache. “Tell me the details. The Chai family can’t be implicated for no reason.” “The exact situation is that…

MO Aotian opened his mouth, but he realized he did not know what was going on either.

“I don’t know! I only know that Chai Qingyu had given instructions to those two in the water prison. They don’t Imow anything else.”

An Jiuyue closed her eyes. She would have slapped MO Aotian if not for Qian Jiyun.

“Whose men are they?” she asked.

“Chai Qingyu’s men,” MO Aotian replied matter-of-factly, as if it was only right.

“Mistress, those two are not Chai Qingyu’s, but they don’t know who they serve either. They only know that someone belonging to Chai Qingyu brought a token and hired them to work for him.”

Gu Chi glanced at MO Aotian and said to Qian Jiyun and An Jiuyue.

“Ah Chi, how did you know that?”

MO Aotian was surprised. Why did he not think of asking this question?

“I asked him, of course.”

Gu Chi was a little unhappy, but he still replied.

“These people have been raised in a certain place since they were very young. After they grow up and attain a certain level of cultivation, they will be sent to various locations to act as spies for the various aristocratic families.

“They don’t know who trained them either. They only know that they have to obey when the token is shown to them.”

“They’re rather obedient!”

An Jiuyue could not help but chuckle. They had been released for so many years, yet they remained so obedient. Just a token, and they were ready to risk their lives.

She glanced at Qian Jiyun.

“Gu Chi, you don’t have to care about any upcoming matters. Just investigate the Zhao family thoroughly,” Qian Jiyun instructed Gu Chi.

“Wait, Hall Master, what about me?”

MO Aotian was dumbfounded. Gu Chi was his subordinate, right? Why did Qian Jiyun order his subordinate directly?

Was he, the intermediary master, of no use?

“You?” Qian Jiyun glanced at him with disdain. “You’re better at fighting. You’re still useful in the hall.”

MO Aotian was speechless.

He made it sound as if he was useless except for combat.

After all, he was the Third Palace Master of Jun Lin Hall, right?

In a remote courtyard…

Zhao Xiaoli walked in slowly with a pot of tea.

“Why are you here?”

When Qian Liuguang saw that it was Zhao Xiaoli, he appeared out of nowhere and asked coldly.

“I’m here to bring you some food and a pot of good tea.” Zhao Xiaoli gestured with the teapot in her hand and smiled at Qian Liuguang.

“Speak in plain language.” Qian Liuguang frowned and looked at her seriously.

He would typically let Zhao Xiaoli do as she pleased. However, now that something big was about to happen, he would not take any chances with his life..
