"Alliance Hierarch Yuan, what happened?"
Helian Wudi knew that, just like himself, Yuan Tiangang was a sly fox who had cultivated for dozens of years; unless it was a matter of great urgency, he would never let his emotions show.
If even this bit of self-control was absent, what was the point of mixing in Jianghu?
"That bastard Qin Yu… killed… killed my nephew, Xiao Fei!"
Yuan Tiangang's eyes were bloodshot, his chest heaving violently, clearly overwheld with extre grief and anger.
"That kid Qin Yu is no immortal, how could he have foreseen the future and waited at the hotel for your nephew to arrive?"
Helian Wudi had probably heard about Yuan Shifei's peculiar hobby — collecting won's beautiful legs. But he had not anticipated that Qin Yu would outsmart him and actually kill him.
Could soone have leaked the information?
Wu i!
Helian Wudi thought of soone. Murong Qingcheng was at Fengyun Villa, and he had only ntioned the plan to Wu i, relying on her to pass the information to Qin Yu.
Wu i had been with him for over ten years and understood him completely, so she might have guessed that it was a trap for Qin Yu and then warned him.
It must be so!
Helian Wudi's expression darkened, unable to fathom why a confidant who had followed him for over a decade would betray him.
What kind of love potion had that Qin given Wu i?
"Alliance Hierarch Yuan, Qin Yu's cunning has already exceeded our imagination. You should head back to Capital City overnight, I need to go back to the city center and take care of so things!"
Helian Wudi paused, then said.
"Alright. That kid will likely co to Capital City looking for . I'll set up a trap that will ensure he can't return unscathed."
Grinding his teeth with hatred, Yuan Tiangang spoke and then got into the car with two of his n.
At this mont.
Having set out earlier, Qin Yu and his group had already returned to the city center.
"Wenrou, et up with Mingyu and head back to East Sea with your cousin. Qingcheng, go to Sister Yan's place and leave overnight as well. Wu City is Helian Wudi's territory, I'm afraid he might attempt a sneak attack!"
Qin Yu said in a low, firm voice.
"Okay, and what about you?"
After nodding, Lu Wenrou looked at Qin Yu with so confusion and asked.
"I still have one more thing to take care of. Xiao Bai, I'll see you in Capital City!"
Qin Yu was not worried about Shen Yubai's safety. Shen was from the Shen Family in Capital City, and he had no deep grudges with the Martial Alliance or Helian Wudi; there was no reason they would target Shen Yubai.
Now, the only person Qin Yu was truly worried about was Wu i.
Although the two of them couldn't even be considered friends, without her warning that night, he likely would have fallen for Helian Wudi's sches. And Yuan Shifei would successfully have entered the hotel and hard Yan Mingyu.
Thinking back on this, Qin Yu still felt a shiver of fear. Naturally, his heart was filled with gratitude towards Wu i, and he knew that Helian Wudi was no fool—he would sooner or later suspect that Wu i had betrayed him.
"Fine, Brother Qin, I'll wait for you in Capital City!"
Shen Yubai patted Qin Yu on the shoulder.
"Then I'll take this car!"
Qin Yu took a separate car and headed toward the Charm Bar.
With the experience from the prior two tis, he easily found his way to the upstairs private room, where Wu i was sitting alone. A cigarette dangled from one hand while the other held a wine glass, her face slightly intoxicated but shrouded by a layer of lancholy.
She was a woman of complex character, a tragic figure who had grown up in an orphanage. After turning eighteen, she ventured out into the world and encountered Helian Wudi.
She thought she had finally found a strong support, never expecting that Helian Wudi was a pervert who, unable to commit normal human relations, would use all manner of other thods to tornt her.
Even from a spiritual level, he controlled her, treating her wholly as a private object to vent on and toy with, rather than as a thinking, independent woman.
"Wu i, co with quickly!"
Qin Yu looked deeply at Wu i and spoke rapidly.
That old fox Helian Wudi was most likely already on his way here.
"Qin Yu, thank you. You made believe in love again and allowed to enjoy the pleasures of being a woman. Cough cough...."
Wu i turned her head, a faint smile on her lips, but black blood continuously flowed out as she coughed.
"Helian Wudi was kind to , yet I betrayed him. Over the years, I've also done so many bad things—I was on a dead-end path either way. But I have no regrets!"
With a tragic smile on her face, Wu i continued intermittently, "It's impossible for to leave. You don't understand the power of the Fengyun Chamber of Comrce. They have people everywhere, both in the North and the South. Anyway, I've already betrayed Helian Wudi, so I don't mind sharing so information with you. Helian Wudi's Fengyun Chamber of Comrce is just a branch under the overall Fengyun Chamber of Comrce, and he is akin to a hall master of the Fengyun Chamber of Comrce in Wu City.
Just think, if a single hall master can be so formidable to strike awe into the South, you can imagine how powerful the main chamber is. There are four hall masters under the main chamber, and each one is as fierce as Helian Wudi.
In the future, unless it's absolutely necessary, never provoke the main Fengyun Chamber of Comrce. Cough cough... I'm dying, can you kiss ?
It's not that I've fallen for you, but you've made believe that there is true, undying love between n and won.
I suppose this is also a price I've paid to fulfill my own fantasies about love, who would have thought I am a woman as well?"
"Wu i...."
Qin Yu was overwheld with complex emotions. He understood the aning behind the words Wu i had just spoken: inherently, people are good; no one is born evil. Over the years, Wu i had probably committed countless bad deeds while with Helian Wudi.
Yet, deep in her heart, a bit of conscience remained unextinguished, and within her was still a glimr of longing for love.
His recent actions at the Ye Family had moved her, making her believe in love, and she finally chose to betray the utterly wicked Helian Wudi. Yet feeling guilty towards him, she could only choose to commit suicide by poison.
Watching the light fading from Wu i's eyes, Qin Yu knew that even if he intervened, it would be to no avail.
Taking a deep breath, he walked over to Wu i, bent down, and kissed her sowhat cold, blood-stained lips.
"Thank you....."
Wu i slowly closed her eyes, and her hands fell limply by her side.
"Wu i!"
Qin Yu felt trendously somber. Even the worst of people had a glimr of humanity within them.
"If there is an afterlife, I hope you can be a happy, beautiful woman!"
Qin Yu's eyes ached slightly, and he gently closed Wu i's open eyes with his hand before turning and leaving the private room.
Perhaps, death was the best choice for Wu i.
Monts later,
Helian Wudi entered the elevator with an air of stern slaughter.
But when he arrived at the private room, all he found was Wu i's cold body.
"Wu i, it was you after all... Why did you betray !"
Helian Wudi's eyelids twitched continuously, and he even felt an impulse to lash out viciously at Wu i's body.
But in the end, he restrained himself.
Sitting next to Wu i's body, he lit a cigarette and took a deep drag, with no one knowing what was on his mind.
Ring ring....
At that mont, Helian Wudi's phone rang.
After he answered, a deep voice ca through from the other end, "There's a job, do you take it?"
