“Hey, Old Xiao! Why didn’t you say anything earlier?” Wang Yu asked Xiao Yang, who had been quiet ever since Luo Zhenhai came to report to them, until he left again.
“Sigh, I was thinking about Luo Zhenhai’s explanation just now, so I didn’t say anything.” Although Xiao Yang said those things, he also sneered at them in his heart, especially after he learned about those people’s vicious actions.
Wang Yu nodded in understanding and asked him again. “Who do you think was the culprit who killed them?”
“I don’t know.” Xiao Yang replied with a shake of his head. “In our country, only Kong Ming has such an ability, but they have already told us that he has never left his home, so I have no other guesses about the identity of the killer.”
“Do you think there is a new superpower possessor who has the same abilities as Kong Ming?” Wang Yu once again asked him, and he also raised his eyebrows.
This time, it was Long Jiuxiao who answered his question. “You may be right about that, Wang Yu. However, we are always having trouble tracking down the new emerging superpower possessors; we haven’t even managed to get clear data about that man named Mo Xie.”
“That’s true.” Wang Yu then turned to Long Jiuxiao. “Do you have any clue about that Mo Xie?”
“Yes, but I don’t dare to confirm it yet, for I haven’t had the time to investigate him myself.” The two men immediately raised their eyebrows upon hearing that, and Long Jiuxiao explained to them everything he had heard from Yang Lang and the others before.
‘That Chen Li kid is really scary! He already knew that they already suspected his identity, and he immediately advanced his revenge plan.’ Xiao Yang muttered in his heart after he listened to Long Jiuxiao’s explanation.
On the other hand, Wang Yu looked disbelieving at Long Jiuxiao’s words. “Are you sure that Mo Xie is Chen Wei’er’s nephew? I clearly remember that he was very weak and fragile, so I have a hard time believing he was their killer.”
“Not only you, but I myself also couldn’t believe it at first.” Long Jiuxiao replied as he sighed softly. “However, I know Lin Qingzhu quite well, so I think their conjecture about Chen Li being Mo Xie’s true identity makes a lot of sense.” 𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝘦𝑡
Even though he had said that, Wang Yu still couldn’t believe Long Jiuxiao’s words, especially since he knew Chen Wei’er very well and had also met Chen Li several times in the past. “Even if you are sure that their guess is correct, how are you going to prove that the two of them are the same person? Unless you ask that person for help, then you can visit the Chen house to prove his true identity.”
“Apparently, you’ve missed news about them; Lin Qingzhu and the others are no longer living in the Chen House, but they are living in Qingshui Mansion together with Mo Xie, which makes me even more certain that he and Chen Li are the same person.” Wang Yu was really surprised to hear that, and Long Jiuxiao then turned to Xiao Yang. “Do you know anything about him? I knew that Xianglin also lives in the mansion with them, and you also visited them yesterday.”
“Is that true, Old Xiao?” Wang Yu asked as he turned to Xiao Yang.
Xiao Yang was not surprised to hear Long Jiuxiao’s words, for he knew that some of his people must be spying on him, and he directly answered his question. “Xianglin did live in the mansion, but it was Chen Wei’er who asked her to stay with her, especially after she almost died before. As for Mo Xie, I met him there, but we didn’t talk much. However, Feng Xian’er asked me about Xuanyuan Wan’er’s residence, and they went straight to Yunnan to see her.”
“Xuanyuan Wan’er?” The two men were shocked after hearing that.
Since he knew that Long Jiuxiao would not dare go against Xuanyuan Wan’er, Xiao Yang deliberately brought her name into their conversation to give him some deterrence.
Xiao Yang nodded to them. “Honestly, I don’t know how Feng Xian’er got to know Xuanyuan Wan’er, but she managed to persuade her and her daughter to live with them.”
“What?” Long Jiuxiao shouted in shock. “Is it true that Xuanyuan Wan’er and her daughter live in Qingshui Mansion now?”
“If you don’t believe me, you can come directly to their mansion.” Xiao Yang replied with a nonchalant shrug. “However, you will definitely get a cold reception from Xuanyuan Wan’er, especially since she is very familiar with Feng Xian’er.”
Long Jiuxiao’s face darkened after he heard that; he indeed had plans to go to Qingshui Mansion to see Lin Qingzhu. But now, Xiao Yang actually told him that Xuanyuan Wan’er was staying with them, so he immediately gave up his plan, especially since he could still clearly remember the previous incident when she crippled Qin Feng.
Long Jiuxiao then took out his smartphone and sent someone a message, but he also continued to grumble in his heart. ‘Damn it! How can I investigate Chen Li if that woman really lives in the mansion with them? Moreover, Xiao Xianglin and Chen Wei’er are also lives there, and that guy definitely won’t be able to take on all three of them at the same time.’
Wang Yu raised his eyebrows as he saw Long Jiuxiao like that, but he immediately ignored him and said to Xiao Yang. “If I remember correctly, Xianglin and Wei’er have been friends since they were very young, right?”
Xiao Yang nodded to him. “They are like real siblings, so Chen Wei’er forces Xianglin to live with her, for she was afraid that something bad might happen to her again.”
“That’s good.” Wang Yu replied as he nodded. “Hey, Old Yang! Did you meet your daughter-in-law yesterday?”
“My daughter-in-law had returned to her country before I came there, so I didn’t have the chance to meet her. However, Xianglin told me that she would come to this country again someday, and I might be able to see her by then.” After he answered Wang Yu’s question, Xiao Yang immediately got up from his seat and said, “Since there are no other matters for us to discuss, I will return to my house now.”
“Sigh, I also want to go home to be with my family, especially after we’ve been in Europe for a few weeks.” The two men immediately left the council chamber, leaving Long Jiuxiao, who was still lost in his own thoughts.
*Ring.*
Long Jiuxiao was startled when his smartphone suddenly rang, and he immediately accepted it. “I know you are strong, but you should listen to me now, for your previous opponents were not as strong as Xuanyuan Wan’er, and there are still a few more strong women by her side; one of them is the former head of this superpower bureau.”
[Xunyuan Wan’er? Who is she?] Then man asked him.
Long Jiuxiao sighed softly and told him. “In this country, no one knows about Xuanyuan Wan’er’s background, but we all know that she is powerful; not even the people from the government dare to disturb her.”
Without answering Long Jiuxiao, the man immediately ended their call, and he sighed heavily before he left the room. “That guy sure is stubborn; he will definitely still go to Qingshui Mansion. Sigh, I hope he doesn’t run into Xuanyuan Wan’er there, or else he will have an even worse fate than Qin Feng.”

Meanwhile, Liu Ling’er and Wen Xuanxuan had just exited the airport, and Wen Xia was already waiting for them in the parking lot.
“Big Sis Xia!” Liu Ling’er called out as she ran over to Wen Xia, and she immediately hugged her as she asked her a question. “Have you made an appointment with him? Is he coming to meet me tonight?”
“Why do I feel that you are really looking forward to meeting Mo Xie?” Wen Xia asked back with a teasing smile.
“Mo Xie? Who is he?” Liu Ling’er asked in confusion, and Wen Xuanxuan also looked at her cousin with a puzzled look.
On the other hand, Wen Xia felt their responses were perplexing. “Why are you guys reacting like this? That man’s name is Mo Xie, and Feng Xian’er is his wife.”
“Huh?” Liu Ling’er was surprised to hear that, but she then shook her head. “Since you said Feng Xian’er is his wife, I am absolutely certain that Mo Xie is Chen Li.”
“Huh? Chen Li? Chen Wei’er’s nephew?” Wen Xia asked with a raised eyebrow.
Liu Ling’er nodded to her. “Big Sis Xia, I know Feng Xian’er very well, and she would not marry any man other than Chen Li, so I firmly believe that they are the same person. However, I don’t understand why he told you that his name is Mo Xie, but we can find out about it when we meet him later.”
“If you are sure that Chen Li is Mo Xie, I might know something about why he decided to use that name.” The two women raised their eyebrows, but Wen Xia directly told them. “Let’s leave this airport first, and I will tell you two something.”
As they were on their way to the hotel, Wen Xia told Liu Ling’er and Wen Xuanxuan that Chen Li was still on the missing persons list and that he had disappeared four months ago, shocking them.
