Chapter Ten Secrets Revealed

  Shangguan Feiyan listened, and the sweet secret smile on her face was no longer visible.

  Lu Xiaofeng said, "He advised you to think of a way to get back the wealth of the Jinpeng Dynasty from Yan Tieshan and his men. Whoever gets that enormous wealth will immediately rise to prominence."

  Shangguan Feiyan said coldly: "People die for wealth, birds perish for food. Such a vast fortune, whoever sees it will be tempted."

  Li Yunfei sneered, "But you also know what to say, your uncle and cousin will never agree to this matter. Moreover, if he doesn't die, even if you want to return that wealth, it belongs to them."

  Shangguan Feiyan said: "Of course I don't want others to reap the benefits without doing anything."

  Lu Xiaofeng coldly said: "So you and your lover have come up with a clever plan."

  Shangguan Feiyan said, "I originally only wanted to kill that old and muddle-headed Dajin Peng Wang, but the person we sent to impersonate him, no matter how cleverly disguised, would definitely not be able to deceive Shangguan Danfeng."

  "So you might as well kill her too."

  Shangguan Feiyan said: "Not bad."

  Lü Xiaofeng said, "As it happens, you two look quite alike to begin with, and you've been able to imitate her voice since childhood. So you're the perfect substitute for her. Come and experience what it's like being a princess."

  Shangguan Feiyan coldly smiled and said: "The taste is not good."

  Li Yunfei said, "You wouldn't want a chatterbox like her to know about this secret, so you've been keeping it from Xue'er all along. It's laughable that she actually thinks you were poisoned by Officer Danfeng."

  Shangguan Feiyan said with a scowl: "That little devil is not only talkative but also meddlesome."

  Lu Xiaofeng said: "I just wonder why you don't go find Huo Xiu and them directly?"

  Shangguan Feiyan said, "Because we only discovered later that the Great Golden Peng King must have had a secret mark, and only those ministers who fled with him at the same time knew about it. Therefore, no matter who came to impersonate him, they would inevitably be recognized by Huo Xiu and those old foxes."

  Lu Xiaofeng said: "You didn't know at that time that he was a man with six toes?"

  Shangguan Feiyan said: "I don't know what to say and I also dare not take risks."

  "So you think the best way is to find someone to replace you and kill those old foxes?"

  Shangguan Feiyan said: "Not bad."

  Lu Xiaofeng sighed and said, "But this person is not easy to find, because he must not only have the ability to kill those people like Huo Xiu, but also have a natural disposition to be nosy and troublesome."

  Shangguan Feiyan said calmly: "This person is indeed hard to find, apart from you, we can't think of a second person."

  Lu Xiaofeng sighed and said with a bitter smile: "It seems that people like me are still not many in this world."

  "It's just that it's not an easy thing for you to take action willingly."

  Lü Xiao Feng said: "Fortunately I not only like to meddle in other people's business, but also have a bit of the temperament of pulling back and retreating."

  Shangguan Feiyan finally smiled and said: "I didn't expect you to still understand yourself so well."

  "You deliberately want to stop me because you know that the more people don't let me do something, the more I want to do it."

  Shang Gong Fei Yan smiled and said: "The mules of Shanxi people are also like this."

  Lu Xiaofeng said: "Later you deliberately killed Xiao Qiuyu and Dugu Fang to warn me, which is exactly what you meant."

  Shangguan Feiyan said: "That's also because they already know they've said too much."

  At this time, Hua Manlou interrupted: "You deliberately sang in that broken temple to lure us there and left a few strands of hair in the water basin on purpose, just to make me believe you're still alive?"

  Shangguan Feiyan said: "That's also for your own good so you won't believe that little devil's words again in the future."

  Lu Xiaofeng said: "You know that when Xue'er was eavesdropping outside the window, I deliberately killed Liu Yuhuan in front of her."

  Shangguan Feiyan said coldly: "That little ghost would never know that this was just a play I and Liu Yuheng deliberately performed for her to see."

  Lu Xiaofeng said: "When we see that Liu Yugen is still alive, of course, we think she's a liar."

  He sighed again, and said with a bitter smile: "It's just that when she saw Liu Yuhen come back to life, her expression was like seeing a living ghost. She didn't even dare to say anything nonsense and followed him obediently!"

  Shangguan Feiyan said: "I should have locked that little devil up long ago. Unfortunately..."

  "It's just a pity that you had too many things to do those few days, and you were also afraid that we would come back and not see her, which would have aroused even more suspicion."

  Shangguan Feiyan coldly smiled and said: "Sometimes I really think you're the tapeworm in my belly, you seem to know all about my heart's affairs."

  At this time, Li Yunfei said: "You originally wanted to let Lu Xiaofeng kill Yan Tieshan and Dugu Yijue. So when you were at Yan Tieshan's house, you ambushed Yan Tieshan. But your purpose was disrupted by me. At that time, you thought that if we suspected you, you would leave, and after listening to Yan Tieshan's explanation, we also thought what he said made sense, but we didn't know who was actually lying."

  "So we came back to look for clues, and at that time, the only ones who knew about Yan Tieshan's secret besides us three were you and Huo Tianqing. You must have received the news in advance to be able to cut off the fake Golden Rooster King's leg. It's impossible for us three to tell you, so your lover must be Huo Tianqing. Am I right?"

  Li Yunfei would certainly not say that he knew it was all arranged by Huo Xiuxiu.

  Shangguan Feiyan said with a scowl: "Originally, our plan was flawless. After I killed Yan Tieshan, there would be no one to testify against us. Then, Huo Tianqing would go and exhaust Dugu Yijue's strength. Finally, let Ximen Chuiyun kill Dugu Yijue. But it was all ruined by you."

  Shangguan Feiyan looked at Huamanlou and said softly: "Did you hear what I just said?"

  Hua Manlou nodded slightly.

  Shangguan Feiyan said: "You... you... aren't angry?"

  Hua Man Lou said lightly: "Everyone can't avoid doing wrong things, let alone, you didn't want me to like you anyway."

  He still looks so gentle and soft-spoken because in his heart there is only love and no hatred.

  Shangguan Feiyan looked at him, and even a woman like her couldn't help but show a hint of shame on her face.

  Lu Xiaofeng was also watching him, softly sighing and saying: "This man is indeed a gentleman."

  "Hua Man Lou smiled and said: 'A gentleman and a fool are sometimes almost the same.'"

  Li Yunfei looked at Hua Manlou and said softly: "Being able to know a fool like you is the greatest honor of my life!"

  Hua Man Lou smiled silently, her eyes filled with a hint of emotion.

  Lu Xiaofeng asked: "Why did you want Liu Yuhuan to come and kill me? You should know that he is absolutely not our opponent?"

  Shangguan Feiyan said calmly: "You should know this reason."

  "Is it because he's no longer useful to you, so now you want to use me to kill him?"

  Since she appeared, Liu Yugen was like a different person and became very quiet.

  Every time he looked at her, a very gentle friendship would appear in that single eye of his.

  "What Shangguan Feiyan said was like a sharp knife that suddenly pierced his heart, and he trembled with voice: "You... do you really want me to die?""

  Shangguan Feiyan didn't even glance at him, her eyes cold as she said: "Actually, you should have died long ago. What's the point of living for someone like you?"

  "But you...you used to..."

  Shangguan Feiyan said: "What I said before was all lies, of course. Did you really think I would actually like you?"

  Liu Yu's body seemed to have already turned cold and stiff, standing there motionless. He stared at her blankly, his eyes filled with resentment yet also filled with love. It was unclear how long he stood there before he let out a soft sigh. "No wonder, you wouldn't really like me anyway. I understand myself too, I've just been deceiving myself all along."

  "You're at least not too stupid."

  Liu Yu's hatred slowly nodded, suddenly turned his hand and thrust a sword into his own chest.

  The sword pierced through his heart. Fresh blood shot out from behind him like an arrow, splashing onto the wall in droplets.

  But his face became completely expressionless again, numb. To him, it was no longer a painful thing, but rather an enjoyment.

  His eyes suddenly lit up, and he smiled slightly, muttering: "Dying is not a difficult thing after all. To be able to die in front of you, I...". He didn't finish the sentence before falling down.

  Lu Xiaofeng didn't stop him and couldn't even if he wanted to. Sometimes, a peaceful death is better than living.

  "Full of emotions since ancient times, with endless resentment", he is indeed a sentimental person, only unfortunately misusing his emotions.

  Li Yunfei gazed at Shangguan Feiyan, suddenly feeling an inexplicable disgust towards this heartless woman.

  Li Yunfei looked at Shangguan Feiyan and said: "You did something wrong. Do you know that?"

  "What's going on? I don't know anything about it."

  "You drove Liu Yuheng to death. If he hadn't died, when I kill you, there would be someone to save you. Now, you only have one way to die." Li Yunfei looked at Shangguan Feiyan, feeling that this woman was really too terrifying.

  "You want to kill me? Can you bear to kill me?"

  Li Yunfei sneered: "Lu Xiaofeng may not be able to do it, but I can."

  Luk Siu-fung said: "I really don't want to kill people, and I've never killed a woman, but she's an exception."

  Li Yunfei said: "You woman are really too terrifying, if I don't kill you my heart will be uneasy. Even Lu Xiaofeng wants to kill you, today you must die!"

  Shangguan Feiyan didn't feel a bit afraid, instead she smiled and said: "Alright, come kill me then. Unfortunately, if you kill me, that boss will also lose his life."

  Lu Xiaofeng said: "Zhu Ting is a clever person, and he's also a lazy person. He can't even be bothered to walk, so how could you possibly catch him?"

  Shangguan Feiyan smiled and said: "He's a clever person, but he has a friend who invited him into the trap, I couldn't help it either."

  Lu Xiaofeng asked Shangguan Feiyan: "Where is Zhu Tingren?"

  Shangguan Feiyan coldly smiled and said: "How could I possibly put my life in your hands?"

  Shangguan Feiyan paused for a moment and then said: "However, if you want me to let him go, that's fine too. You can go kill Ximen Chui Xue instead."

  Li Yunfei stared at Shangguan Feiyan without saying a word. He just stared at her coldly.
