Lian Li said a few words to comfort him. Captain Zheng also knew that someone was behind this, so he did not express his dissatisfaction too much.

Qu Tingquan didn't get much information.

Although Qu Tingquan did not say it explicitly, even Li and Yun Huizhou could hear that when Qu Tingquan first went there, the major sects were all very interested in the treasure and were not willing to say more about what they knew.

Qu Tingquan was helpless and could only vaguely remind him that this might be a trick.

Two sects seemed to take the matter very seriously and invited Qu Tingquan to discuss it in detail.

Qu Tingquan mentioned the incident of encountering zombies at Fengling Villa. After knowing this, the two sects began to take it seriously and exchanged some information with Qu Tingquan.

Unfortunately, the information they knew was basically about the treasures in the imperial mausoleum, which was not of much use to Qu Tingquan. After all, he had no interest in the treasures in the imperial mausoleum.

But seeing that they were willing to tell them the news about the treasure they wanted, Qu Tingquan reminded them again. This time, the news he told them was the one that Zhao Honglan had found out at the beginning, that the blind fortune teller's coffin was empty.

The blind fortune teller may not be dead, there is something fishy about this matter.

Those sects initially thought that the news of the treasure's birth must have been calculated by the blind fortune teller, which was also the reason why the blind fortune teller was killed.

Hearing Qu Tingquan say this, he immediately wrote a letter and sent it back to the sect.

When the other sects heard Qu Tingquan hint that there was something fishy about this matter, although they did not say anything, Qu Tingquan could see that they did not take it seriously.

It would be a bad idea to explain it to them in detail, lest they disbelieve her or suspect that she is lying to them because she covets the treasure.

Qu Tingquan felt helpless about their attitude, but he was also unwilling to cause trouble for himself and Lian Li.

Qu Tingquan went out to deliver some information to the two sects, but he didn't bring back any useful information.

When it was Lian Li and Yun Huizhou's turn, they opened their mouths and told Jin Manjue the most shocking news they had heard this time.

"Hou Yuanpeng is the adopted son of Prince Chun."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone understood one thing instantly.

It is very likely that Prince Chun was also involved in this matter.

Compared to Qu Tingquan, Yun Huizhou and Lian Li who just learned about this, Captain Zheng was relatively calm.

Lian Li asked him, "Captain Zheng, did you know that Prince Chun was involved in these things a long time ago?"

Captain Zheng shook his head and said, "No, I just guessed that someone with a high position in the court would be involved, but I didn't expect it to be Prince Chun."

Yun Huizhou also asked: "Does General Lei have any doubts?"

Captain Zheng showed an uncertain expression at this time and thought for a while: "This is not very clear. The general did not tell me."

Lian Li looked at Captain Zheng and knew that even if Captain Zheng knew some of General Lei's guesses, as General Lei's loyal subordinate, he would never express General Lei's thoughts unless General Lei gave a hint.

But Lian Li felt that Captain Zheng was probably suspecting Cai Yong because he was a person in a very high position in the court.

General Lei's target was not Cai Yong from the beginning, but the three living princes, but he was not sure which prince they were.

If Jin Manjue had not started from Hou Yuanpeng's background and directly exposed his true colors, I'm afraid Prince Chun would have had to hide for a long time.

After all, among the three princes, only Prince Chun was in poor health and bedridden.

When General Lei and his men wanted to investigate, they would habitually start with the imperial court, and it would be difficult for them to focus their attention on a rising star in the underworld.

If Hou Yuanpeng hadn't jumped out this time and let them know that Hou Yuanpeng was related to Fengling Villa and the person behind the scenes, and with Jin Manjue's brilliant move, Prince Chun would never have been exposed.

However, Lian Li and Yun Huizhou thought of a problem at the same time. They looked at each other and were about to discuss it when they were alone, but Qu Tingquan spoke at this time.

"I have always had a suspicion that the person who has such great power to stir up such a big incident in the martial arts world is someone who has disappeared for a long time, especially after going to Fengling Villa. But now Hou Yuanpeng has implicated Prince Chun, and I am confused instead."

Although Qu Tingquan did not mention anyone by name, what she said was enough to let everyone present know who the person behind the scenes she had previously suspected was.

Just as Lian Li and Yun Huizhou suspected, it was the extraordinary master who had disappeared for more than 40 years.

Lian Li said, "Senior Sister Qu, whether it is Prince Chun or the person you suspected before, there is no conflict. They can be in the same group, and one of them is the mastermind and the other is the accomplice."

Yun Huizhou also said at this time: "What Lian Li said makes sense. It doesn't matter whether there are two people behind the scenes or one person. At least now we know about one more person."

Lian Li saw that the atmosphere was a bit dull, so he pretended to be relaxed and joked, "Maybe they are the same person?"

Captain Zheng smiled and said, "That's unlikely. Prince Chun is sixty-six this year. He was only in his twenties forty years ago. When that extraordinary person disappeared, as far as I know, he was already over a hundred years old."

Qu Tingquan was also laughing, thinking that Lian Li was just joking.

After Lian Li said this, he suddenly realized that the extraordinary person was of the same generation as his master Li Hansong, so Li Hansong should be over a hundred years old now.

However, Li Hansong looked like a teenager of seventeen or eighteen years old.

The four island masters from the southeast, northwest, northeast and southwest participated in the campaign to suppress the Demon Sect fifty years ago. At that time, they must have been at least fifteen or sixteen years old.

Fifty years have passed, and they are now at least sixty-five years old.

However, each of them seemed to be in their twenties, and the South Island Master had a particularly youthful face.

What about Chaofan? Will he also be able to maintain the appearance of being in his twenties?

Lian Li felt that he had accidentally discovered another big secret.

When they were alone together, Lian Li quietly told Yun Huizhou about his idea.

Yun Huizhou was quite surprised to see that he took this idea seriously.

But when I thought about it carefully, I felt that what Lian Li said made some sense.

It's not like the long-lost extraordinary master couldn't do this. Since he could maintain his youthful appearance, the extraordinary master would not have trouble finding powerful disguise methods, so it was not impossible for him to impersonate King Chun.

However, most people would not have such thoughts inexplicably unless they saw it with their own eyes.

Lian Li is an exception. Sometimes he would have thoughts for no reason that other people would not have.

If Lian Li knew what Yun Huizhou was thinking, he would definitely tell him meaningfully. This is called a routine.
