Chapter 1191: Chapter 1191: Clues of the Assassin
Letting Luo Yang go, who knows when I’ll have the chance to be alone with him again.
“Hey! If you don’t help us with this, I’ll never let you off!” Gu Xue said angrily.
“Sister Xue, Sister Xiang, Sister Yun, I’m already a member of the Ten Thousand Souls Sect. How could I grow wings and fly away? It’s like a cooked duck.” Luo Yang said earnestly.
Hearing this, they all covered their mouths and smiled.
“Hey! Quickly find the soul… the Luminous Pearl! Once you find it, come here immediately!” Gu Xue demanded.
“Sister Xue, Sister Xiang, Sister Yun, you all go eat first. I’ll go back and look for it.” Luo Yang said.
So the three Gu sisters left the room and exited the hotel with Luo Yang.
Luo Yang first sent them to the entrance of the resort, instructing them to meet up with An Yuying and Tang Guihua and the others.
The Soul Bead was being kept by Tang Guihua, so it should be safe.
After that, Luo Yang returned to the hotel where he was staying to find Shuiyue and Jinghua.
They weren’t familiar with the other beauties and usually wouldn’t wander around outside.
In the hotel room, he indeed found them there.
Seeing Luo Yang arrived, Shuiyue and Jinghua were very happy.
Unlike the three Gu sisters, Shuiyue and Jinghua still had tasks to complete.
If they didn’t finish them, they would be punished by the Lord Bao at any moment.
His purpose in visiting them was to have them call the Lord Bao.
By afternoon, they hadn’t gone into the altar under the Frozen Lake again, and he was afraid the Lord Bao already knew.
If Shuiyue and Jinghua didn’t report to the Lord Bao, it would be a dead giveaway.
After all, the Lord Bao had sent these two close attendants to watch Luo Yang.
Suddenly recalling the assassination of Hua XiYi, Luo Yang wondered if it might have been orchestrated by the Skull Fortress.
After observing them for a moment, he could tell they had no external injuries.
“Sister Jing, how is your recovery going? Let me feel your pulse,” Luo Yang said.
Sitting on the edge of the bed, he felt her pulse without waiting for Jinghua’s permission.
“Much better,” Jinghua replied.
After checking, he confirmed that Jinghua had no internal injuries.
She was already weak, so it was impossible for her to have gone to assassinate Hua XiYi.
“Sister Yue, let me feel your pulse too,” Luo Yang smiled.
“Why?” Shuiyue asked in confusion.
She was neither ill nor poisoned.
“To check if you’re in suboptimal health,” Luo Yang explained.
Shuiyue let Luo Yang feel her pulse.
Her pulse was also normal, with no internal injuries.
Given the strength of the Skull Fortress, they could indeed orchestrate Hua XiYi’s assassination.
Luo Yang just wanted to know if this incident was led by the Skull Fortress.
After thinking for a moment, he cautiously asked, “Sister Yue, Sister Jing, if the opportunity arises, would… uh, would our Skull Fortress make a move against Xiao Xiao Niu?”
Both Shuiyue and Jinghua nodded.
In this moment, Luo Yang felt it was indeed the work of the Skull Fortress.
“Sister Yue, Sister Jing, since Xiao Xiao Niu is still recovering, will the Lord Bao send someone to assassinate her now?” Luo Yang asked directly.
“Hard to say,” Shuiyue replied.
From their expressions, there was no sign of suspicion. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ NoveIＦire.net
“Has the Lord Bao ever called to ask you which room Xiao Xiao Niu is staying in?” Luo Yang asked again.
“No,” Shuiyue shook her head.
Luo Yang originally intended to have Shuiyue or Jinghua call the Lord Bao to tell them he was going back to his hometown.
But now he had a new idea.
It was only because he felt that the assassin was dispatched by the Skull Fortress, most likely one of the three great assassins.
If he called the Lord Bao and she ordered him to assist in the assassination of Hua XiYi, then that would be troublesome.
To avoid bringing trouble upon himself, it might be better not to contact the Lord Bao for now.
However, Shuiyue and Jinghua were eyes and ears for the Lord Bao. If Luo Yang returned to the countryside and they did not report this, the Lord Bao might take her anger out on them later.
So, it was a dilemma.
After some thought, Luo Yang decided to first test Shuiyue and Jinghua’s attitudes before making a decision.
