79: Section 79

Sensing a strange aura, Mo Qingwu called out.

Seeing that he had been discovered, Azure Dragon no longer concealed himself and knocked on the door of the rental house.

With a creak, the door opened.

"Azure Dragon, why are you in Xia Country?"

Mo Qingwu frowned slightly as she saw the person.

Azure Dragon did not answer Mo Qingwu's question; instead, he grinned.

"Madam Vermilion Bird, won't you invite me in for a sit?"

"If you have something to say, say it. Otherwise, get lost."

Facing Azure Dragon's teasing, Mo Qingwu showed no pleasant expression.

Her impression of Azure Dragon was already poor; he was extremely ambitious, and the way he looked at her made her uncomfortable.

"Alas, I originally wanted to give you a heads-up, considering we are both among the Four Great Protectors.

Now it seems I was just being sentimental."

Azure Dragon feigned regret and shook his head, then turned around.

"Wait, what do you mean by 'heads-up'?"

Mo Qingwu stopped him. At this moment, she was extremely sensitive.

She did not want to miss even the slightest clue.

Azure Dragon's lips curved into a smile. It seemed Mo Qingwu indeed had a problem.

"Won't you invite me in for a sit?"

"Come in."

Mo Qingwu was the first to enter the room.

Azure Dragon followed suit, closing the door behind him.

"Oh my, oh my, I didn't expect Madam Vermilion Bird to live in such a dilapidated place.

It truly tarnishes the reputation of us, the Four Great Protectors of the War God Hall."

Azure Dragon looked around the rental house.

Inside, there was only a simple bed, two stools, and some basic daily necessities.

"If you have something to say, say it. I don't have time to waste with you here."

"Alright, alright, important matters first."

Azure Dragon spread his hands, looking somewhat helpless.

Mo Qingwu was good in every way, but a bit uninteresting.

"Lord Su Yuan asked me to investigate you. Our relationship has always been good, so naturally, I had to come and inform you in advance."

At this moment, a storm raged in Mo Qingwu's heart, but her face remained impassive.

"Is that so? Since Lord Su Yuan asked you to investigate, then you just report truthfully. Why are you telling me this?"

"If that's the case, then I will truthfully report to Lord Su Yuan that you are investigating the annihilation of the Mo family back then."

Azure Dragon stood up from the chair, making to leave.

He had expected Mo Qingwu to stop him, but he didn't expect her to remain silent even after he opened the door.

Damn it, he's really patient.

Azure Dragon cursed inwardly, then turned around.

"Don't you want to know the truth about the Mo family back then?

Su Yuan definitely knows, but he won't tell you. And I, conveniently, am the person he trusts the most."

As soon as these words were spoken, Mo Qingwu could no longer maintain her composure.

"What do you want to gain?"

"Of course, I want to gain you."

Upon hearing this, a flying knife suddenly appeared in Mo Qingwu's hand and shot towards Azure Dragon.

The distance was very close, and Azure Dragon had not expected Mo Qingwu to suddenly attack.

Although he reacted in the end, he was still grazed on his left arm by the flying knife.

"You crazy woman! Shit!"

Seeing that Azure Dragon still dared to curse, two more flying knives instantly appeared in Mo Qingwu's hands.

"Wait, I was just joking with you!"

Azure Dragon quickly explained. He had only come to win over Mo Qingwu.

He had no intention of fighting her to the death.

"Speak, what do you want to gain?"

Mo Qingwu asked again, her face cold.

"I want you to ensure I become the Hall Master of the War God Hall."

Among the Four Great Protectors, Azure Dragon and White Tiger had always had a good relationship.

As for Black Tortoise, he was Su Yuan's loyal follower and impossible to win over.

As long as he could win over Vermilion Bird, then once Su Yuan died, he could directly suppress Black Tortoise.

Mo Qingwu pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly.

She now had to rely on Azure Dragon to uncover the truth. As for other things, they were not important for now.

Seeing Mo Qingwu agree, a smile appeared on Azure Dragon's lips.

"Then I wish us a pleasant cooperation, Madam Vermilion Bird..."

Chapter 70 Don't you want to take responsibility?

"Cooperation... pleasant..."

Mo Qingwu looked at Azure Dragon's outstretched hand but chose not to shake it, her tone somewhat cold.

Azure Dragon gave a wry smile. He understood Vermilion Bird's temper; there had always been friction between them.

He didn't expect Vermilion Bird to obey his every command; he only needed her support at crucial moments.

"I still have things to do, so I won't keep you."

Hearing Mo Qingwu's dismissal, Azure Dragon felt a bit annoyed but didn't show it.

"Alright, then I'll be going."

With that, Azure Dragon walked out the door and disappeared around the stairwell in the blink of an eye.

"Damn it, you stinky woman, one day I'll make you realize the power of me, Azure Dragon..."

After Azure Dragon walked downstairs, he looked back at Mo Qingwu's room and spat fiercely.

But what he didn't know was that at this moment, Vermilion Bird was quietly watching him from the rooftop.

Seeing Azure Dragon leave, Vermilion Bird withdrew her gaze and turned to leave.

But the direction she walked in was not her own room... "Today is a good day..."

Qin Hao was in a good mood today, humming a song as he walked after class.

Not far from the school, a familiar large hand grabbed Qin Hao.

"Big brother, you're robbing me, right? I'll give you all my money."

Qin Hao had long guessed that Xiao Fan would arrange for these people to rob him.

"Good kid, you're quite proactive."

Scarface looked at the extra twenty thousand yuan on his phone and patted Qin Hao's shoulder with satisfaction.

"Can I go now?"

Qin Hao's bones almost broke from the powerful pat, but he dared not show it.

Instead, he looked at Scarface with a fawning smile.

[Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river. This grudge, I, Qin Hao, have remembered!]

Just as Qin Hao thought Scarface would agree... Scarface grinned sinisterly and grabbed Qin Hao by the collar.

"Kid, you're so cooperative that I don't feel any sense of accomplishment. I'm very unhappy right now."
