101: Chapter 101 Just Have Doubt

The convoy drove straight in and soon arrived at the Nangong Family residence.

Family Head Nangong Ming approached Nangong Wan's carriage and asked with a somewhat lacking Aura, "Little Sister, would you like to go to Meixiang Garden to rest first, or go visit Cheng'er?"

Meixiang Garden was the courtyard where Nangong Wan lived before she was married.

"Let's go to Meixiang Garden to settle down first!" Nangong Wan's indifferent voice came from inside the carriage.

"Then we shall listen to Little Sister!" Family Head Nangong Ming immediately agreed.

Not long after, the carriage arrived at Meixiang Garden. Family Head Nangong Ming wanted to follow them in, but was stopped by two guards who reached out to block him: "Family Head Nangong, our Madam is exhausted from the journey, so please, do not go in and disturb her for the time being!"

Family Head Nangong Ming felt quite aggrieved, but in the end, he endured it. He forced a smile and called out to the carriage, "Little Sister, then please rest well. I will come to disturb you again tomorrow!"

But Nangong Wan still did not respond to him.

For a moment, Family Head Nangong Ming felt even more aggrieved and embarrassed, but he still chose to swallow his pride and continued to call out to the carriage, "Then it is settled, I will come again tomorrow!"

In fact, Family Head Nangong Ming did not go far.

After waiting nearby for more than an hour, he saw his wife and daughter walk out of Meixiang Garden.

"Yuqin, come with me. Hongyan, you go back to rest!" Family Head Nangong Ming appeared and said to his wife and daughter.

"Yes, Father, this daughter will take her leave!" Nangong Hongyan said calmly, but inside she was a bit anxious. She was wondering if she should have the Maid secretly notify Chen Hu to let him be careful.

Currently, Young Master Yan Dongcheng's two guards had not yet been caught.

She was very worried that her aunt would implicate the innocent.

The one most likely to be implicated was naturally Chen Hu, who had clashed with Young Master Yan Dongcheng at the auction house.

Although from beginning to end it was Young Master Yan Dongcheng who was threatening Chen Hu, and Chen Hu had not fought back, in the eyes of big shots, they simply didn't care about such things. As long as they felt you were suspicious, they would take action against you.

On the other side, Family Head Nangong Ming brought his wife Liu Yuqin to the study.

"How do you feel about Little Sister's mood?" Family Head Nangong Ming asked.

Liu Yuqin revealed a worried look: "She is simply too calm, so calm that it makes me feel it is abnormal and unsettling."

"Cheng'er is her only son!" Family Head Nangong Ming frowned and said: "Cheng'er being crippled means that Little Sister and her husband have lost their heir. Without an heir, the side branches and sub-branches of the Yan Family will likely jump out to fight for the position of heir! Having caused such serious consequences, I fear Little Sister already has thunderous rage in her heart. Once it erupts, who knows how many people will be implicated!"

"Then what should we do?" Liu Yuqin asked hurriedly.

Family Head Nangong Ming shook his head: "I don't know what to do either. We can only try our best to comply with and satisfy her requests, lest she vent her anger on us!"

Meanwhile, at Meixiang Garden, after Nangong Wan dismissed all her subordinates, she said softly to the air: "Come out!"

A figure flashed by.

A woman in green appeared before Nangong Wan, bent down respectfully, and said: "This servant, Green Bird, greets Master!"

For a woman of the inner household like her, wanting to control the Yan Family was not as easy as imagined.

Therefore, over these years, she had used the Yan Family's power and resources to secretly establish an intelligence organization.

This intelligence organization was led by her four trusted Maids.

The four Maids were Green Bird, Green Moon, Green Jade, and Green Phoenix.

"Speak, what have you found out!" Nangong Wan asked expressionlessly.

"Reporting to Master, according to this servant's investigation, there is a person who is highly suspicious!" Green Bird said.

"Oh!" A chill and killing intent appeared in Nangong Wan's eyes: "Who is it?"

"The person is named Chen Hu!" Green Bird said truthfully: "Originally, the person was just a deputy leader of a third-rate Gang in the outer city, but he had some friendship with Nangong Hongyan, so Nangong Hongyan gave him an auction house invitation.

Before the auction started, Nangong Hongyan went to visit Chen Hu's private room, but she didn't expect Young Master Yan Dongcheng to find out. It upset Young Master Yan Dongcheng's jealousy, so he directly broke into that private room and threatened Chen Hu!

However, that Chen Hu was very capable of enduring; faced with Young Master Yan Dongcheng's threats, he did not react.

But Young Master Yan Dongcheng seemed unsatisfied.

He sent his personal guard Yang Ci to inquire about Chen Hu's background.

After learning that Chen Hu was just a deputy leader of a third-rate Gang, Young Master Yan Dongcheng sent his two personal guards to capture Chen Hu.

But unexpectedly, those two personal guards returned shortly after, ambushed Young Master Yan Dongcheng, and caused Young Master Yan Dongcheng to be severely injured!"

After listening to the report, Nangong Wan asked calmly: "What are your thoughts?"

Green Bird pondered: "This servant believes that this matter is inseparable from Chen Hu!"

"Yang Ci and Zhang Zhong are both born-and-bred servants of the Yan Family. Their parents, wives, and children are all still living within the Yan Family's sphere of influence. Why would they suddenly betray us?" Nangong Wan looked at Green Bird and asked.

"Master, could it be that they were hit by some mind-bewitching secret technique?" Green Bird said thoughtfully: "Logically speaking, it is impossible for Yang Ci and Zhang Zhong to betray us, and they have no reason to betray us, but they did betray us. This is unreasonable, so this servant is inclined to believe that their minds were controlled by someone!"

"Your analysis makes sense!" Nangong Wan nodded: "Then, what do you think we should do next?"

Green Bird said: "This is only a Prefecture City, we don't need to worry too much. We can just capture Chen Hu and interrogate him. If it was really him, that would naturally be best. If it wasn't him, we can still declare him the murderer; we can just use this to paralyze the real murderer!"

Nangong Wan became increasingly satisfied and nodded: "Fine, then leave this matter to you to handle!"

"Master!" Green Bird showed a look of hesitation.

"Is there a problem?" Nangong Wan frowned slightly.

Green Bird said: "Master, relying solely on this servant and the manpower under my command, I fear we cannot take down Chen Hu. Because yesterday, Chen Hu revealed his Late-stage Bone Refining cultivation, and what's more, it is not ordinary Late-stage Bone Refining. He once fought with Luo Ningshuang outside the city, and the result was that he overpowered Luo Ningshuang. After Luo Ningshuang became the Division Head of the Linjiang Prefecture Zhenwu Division, she once killed a Marrow Refining Martial Artist in a reverse-level battle!"

Hearing this, a look of surprise could not help but flash in Nangong Wan's eyes: "In such a small Prefecture City, there is actually such a Genius?"

Facing Nangong Wan's questioning, Green Bird explained: "Master, everything this servant said is true, there is absolutely not half a word of falsehood!"

Nangong Wan waved her hand: "I am not questioning you, I am just feeling a bit surprised. The opponent can fight against Marrow Refining, you really cannot take him down. Forget it, I will leave this matter to Yun Zhong to handle!"

Over these years, besides establishing an intelligence organization, Nangong Wan had also recruited quite a few experts to work for her.

Yun Zhong was one of the experts she had recruited.

This Yun Zhong was originally an abandoned disciple of the Qingxuan Sect. After being expelled from the Qingxuan Sect, he was also hunted down.

It was Nangong Wan who took action to save him, not only helping him heal his injuries but also helping him resolve his grudges, saving him from being continuously hunted.

Coupled with Nangong Wan's extraordinary methods, Yun Zhong soon became her loyal follower.

And Yun Zhong was also a Genius.

In just a few short years, he went from Bone Refining Early Stage to Late-stage Bone Refining, and recently he had cultivated Late-stage Bone Refining to Perfection, preparing to attempt to breakthrough to the Marrow Refining Realm.

His combat power was also particularly strong.

With Yun Zhong as the lead, plus two Bone Refining Realm experts as support, there would be no problem taking down Chen Hu.
