Chapter 532
"Are you crazy? How dare you attack Xie Yuchen in Yanjing!"
"Are you crazy? You actually sent a puppet to blow up Xie Yuchen's car in front of so many people!"
Emperor Xin, Qin Fuguang and the black shadow figure opposite them accused each other of acting rashly, but as the words fell, expressions of astonishment appeared on both sides' faces.
"Didn't you do it?" The black shadow man saw the stunned expressions on Emperor Xin and Qin Fuguang's faces.
"I thought it was you who did it! Besides, judging from the traces at the scene, it was done by the two puppets who have been following you." The shadow man's surprised voice penetrated the black cloak he was wearing.
However, at this moment, Di Xin and Qin Fuguang were inconsolable. The two puppets that had murdered Xie Yuchen were still by their side, guarding them and never leaving. Aside from that time when they had tested Hei Xia Zi, the two puppets seemed completely out of their control.
At this moment, the black shadow suddenly sneered, and that laugh seemed to be a mockery of Qin Fuguang: "Qin Fuguang, it seems that you don't love Xie Yuchen as much as others think! Look, if Xie Yuchen gets in your way, you will attack him without hesitation!"
The shadow hovered around Qin Fuguang and Di Xin like a ghost, its presence instilling an inexplicable fear in them. The sharp, piercing laughter pierced the entire chamber, echoing in the air as if to puncture one's eardrums.
This laughter not only echoed within the secret room, but also reached the ears of the guards outside. The guards exchanged glances, and it was clear from their eyes that they were very familiar with this laughter, and there seemed to be a hint of silence mixed in it.
The person on the left took a few steps and came to the person on the right. "Do you think there's something wrong with the boss?"
The person on the left pointed to the person on the right at his head, and then pointed to the secret room behind him.
The person on the right quietly took a small step and pushed the person who was approaching. "Don't talk nonsense! The boss has very good ears! Be careful if he hears you! If he does, you will suffer the consequences!"
Qin Fuguang's face was gloomy, his hands clenched into fists, and the veins on his exposed forearms bulged, "Shut up!"
The black shadow man was dispersed by Qin Fuguang's sudden wave of hand, but surprisingly, it appeared intact in front of him the next moment, as if nothing had happened.
"What! Did I hit a sore spot for you?" the shadow man said provocatively, with a hint of pride in his voice.
Qin Fuguang snorted coldly, his expression darkening, clearly displeased with the shadowy figure's provocation. The atmosphere between the two men grew increasingly tense, and a conflict seemed imminent.
At this moment, Emperor Xin, who had been sitting silently by the side, finally couldn't hold back anymore. He slammed his palm on the table, making a loud "bang" sound.
"Have you had enough of the trouble? It's already so late, and you still have the mind to fight here!" There was obvious anger in Emperor Xin's voice, and his eyes were like torches, staring closely at the black shadow man and Qin Fuguang.
After seeing Emperor Xin's anger, the shadowy figure and Qin Fuguang immediately returned to their original seats, as if under a spell. Even the shadowy figure, who had always appeared in ghostly form, rarely revealed his true form.
Emperor Xin looked at the person opposite him who had revealed his true face, and the corners of his mouth lifted slightly, revealing a mocking smile. However, hidden behind this smile was his calculation that was completely concealed.
"This is your true face! Steward Xie from the Xie Mansion!" Emperor Xin's words were full of sarcasm, and his eyes were like two sharp swords, piercing straight at Steward Xie.
Butler Xie placed his hands on the table, leaning slightly towards Emperor Xin, and looked at him with interest. His face showed no sign of panic, but rather confidence and composure.
"You don't seem surprised by my appearance." Butler Xie said slowly. His voice was low and magnetic, making people more curious about his identity.
Emperor Xin's lips curled up slightly, and suddenly, as if by magic, a cup of steaming hot tea appeared in his hand. He said casually, "It's not a surprise, it's just that I observed it a little more carefully!"
However, he suddenly changed the subject, his tone becoming serious: "But these are not the main points. The real important thing is that now that Xie Yuchen is dead, the entire Yanjing has fallen into chaos. Not only are the Zhang and Xie families searching for us everywhere, but even the big man above has issued an order to find the murderer who killed Xie Yuchen!"
Emperor Xin said this as he spread the intelligence in his hand on the table. It detailed the circumstances of Xie Yuchen's murder and the reactions of various factions to the incident. Qin Fuguang saw this and quickly reached out to take the intelligence handed over by Emperor Xin and read it carefully.
Meanwhile, Butler Xie appeared remarkably calm. He sat at a leisurely table, a cup of hot tea, identical to Emperor Xin's, in his hand. He took a leisurely sip before speaking slowly, "Zhang Qiling and Hua Yu are merely missing, after all. There's no definitive proof they're dead. But now that Xie Yuchen's situation has come to light, the Zhang family will undoubtedly be like a mad dog, clamoring to find the murderer!"
Qin Fuguang read very quickly, almost skimming through ten lines at a glance. He quickly finished browsing the intelligence, but his brows furrowed tightly. He stared at Butler Xie with a sharp gaze and asked, "You've been lurking in the Xie family for so many years, haven't you noticed anything amiss?"
Butler Xie's face was vaguely visible in the hot steam, as if covered by a layer of gauze, making people feel a little illusory and unreal.
"Of course I found out!" His voice carried through the steam, a hint of helplessness and dissatisfaction. "Xie Yuchen's study and bedroom are practically forbidden areas. No one can enter alone. Even cleaning requires his permission, and it must be done under his strict supervision. What's even more outrageous is that a new group of people have to clean every month. It's like they're guarding against thieves."
Upon hearing this, Emperor Xin lowered his head, a feeling of powerlessness welling up within him. He muttered to himself, "It seems they've long been suspicious of us." He chuckled, his laughter revealing his disdain for the man they had lived with for so many years. "If we talk about ruthlessness, this guy has to be it!"
Qin Fuguang seemed to have thought of something and interrupted, "That's right. I was born into a good family, the child of the Dao Ancestor and the Demon Ancestor. I was born to be the Heavenly Dao. With the Dao Ancestor and the Demon Ancestor backing me up and their advice, how could they not see through our little tricks?"
However, Steward Xie didn't pay much attention to their discussion. Instead, he suddenly asked, "So, you were also being used by someone? And by someone who looked completely harmless?"
