Chapter 258 Talking with Cao Li
"So you have always been suspicious of our Cao family?" Cao Li looked at her with deep eyes.
"Shouldn't I be suspicious? Cao Li, no one is a fool." Xie Jinglan felt that this person was playing dumb with her and smiled coldly:
"Your Cao family is originally from the Middle World, yet you sneaked over to the Guangyuan Continent and sold the lowest quality spirit stones there. I really don't know what your Cao family's purpose is?
Gold and silver! They're worthless in the Middle World, not even as much as low-grade spirit stones. What are you Cao family members doing running to Guangyuan Continent, a place with scarce spiritual energy?
And what the Zhan family did, Cheng Jitian is the master of the Netherworld Palace, I don’t believe you don’t know?
Or are they just puppets used by your Cao family, ready to be eliminated if they disobey? For example, the Yuyong Kingdom and the Xuanji Sect? So you can rule and control the Guangyuan Continent?
It’s a pity that in the end we were not able to fulfill your wish. We killed all the dogs who obeyed your orders, and then you ran away.
You, the Cao family, the Shura clan, the Cheng family, and Beitang Hong all fled back to the middle world, taking only my mother with you.
The people of the Middle World are powerful. It would be easy for them to destroy the Xuanji Sect and the Yuyong Kingdom, but you didn't do it. Perhaps you didn't dare. I guess you have some reservations, right?"
The fact that the Cheng family also came to the Middle World was just her guess, but judging from the smug look on Cheng Jitian's face before his death, it was very likely that the Cheng family was also sent to this Middle World.
"You really knew that my Cao family is from the Middle World." Cao Li said with a look of astonishment. "But if I say that our Cao family went to Guangyuan Continent because we had no choice but to do so, would you believe me?"
“I am not interested in things that have nothing to do with me.
"Cao Li, tell me the truth, how much do you know about my mother's affairs? Was your Cao family involved?" Xie Jinglan asked him directly.
This person avoided the main point and did not answer her question. It was obvious that he was guilty and there must be some unspeakable secret.
But during the few times she spent with him, she felt that this man was different from the bad guys she had killed. He still had some conscience, and perhaps she could find out the whereabouts of her mother from him.
During the war in Guangyuan Continent this time, the Cao family never showed up. My mother was finally taken away by Wei Rufei and Beitang Hong. Fu Mushan was in cahoots with them.
So what role did the Cao family play in the Guangyuan Continent?
"Our Cao family has not been involved in the affairs of Guangyuan Continent, nor have we done anything that is harmful to the world." Cao Li denied it with a serious face.
"I know a little about your mother. I know that there is a medicine man in the Zhan family who uses her blood as a medicine guide to refine pills.
But I didn't know you at that time, nor did I know that the medicine man was your mother. It was only after you blew up Zhan Zhang's wife and two sons that I began to notice you.
But because of your appearance, the Zhan family felt a sense of crisis, so they handed your mother over to someone else. As for who she was given to, I didn't know at the time, but since your mother has been taken to the Middle World, I will do my best to help you find her. "
"Your Cao family wasn't involved? I hope what you said is true." Xie Jinglan was skeptical. "Then you should know where the Fu family is, right?"
"I don't know! It wasn't until now that I realized that the master behind Wei Rufeng is the Fu family, but don't worry! I have already sent people out to inquire about the Fu family, and I believe there will be news back soon."
Cao Li looked at her, somewhat puzzled. "Tell me the truth! I also watched the battle at Yushi Pass! From the conversation between Zhongli Xiao and Fu Mushan, your master should know where the Fu family is. Why didn't he tell you?"
"..." Xie Jinglan felt angry when she heard him mention this matter.
The master gave them a letter and a map, but Beitang Yuan kept all the things on him. Unexpectedly, they were separated halfway through the transmission.
Seeing that she was silent, Cao Li did not continue the topic. "Regarding the matter of the Hunyuan Divine Sword, many people have already believed what Lu Defeng said. Your current situation is not good. Why don't you come and live with us at the Cao family?"
"No need! Thank you for helping me out today." Xie Jinglan said as she stood up and wanted to leave.
"Xie Jinglan, I'm sorry." Cao Li suddenly apologized to her.
Xie Jinglan was stunned. She didn't expect this person to apologize to her.
"In this middle world, the complexity is far beyond your imagination. It is full of power struggles, conflicts of interest, and all kinds of conspiracies. As long as their own interests are not endangered, they will not easily intervene or meddle in other people's affairs.
Because once you get involved in a dispute, you could bring endless trouble to yourself or your entire family, or even catastrophic disaster," Cao Li said.
"Take my mother for example! I understand." Xie Jinglan said coldly.
The mother and he have no relatives, and their relationship is complicated. Anyone would choose to turn a blind eye.
"If I had offered my help earlier, things might not have turned out like this..."
"Goodbye!" Xie Jinglan didn't want to listen to his afterthought, so she flashed away from the window.
Seeing her leave like that, Guan Liang felt anxious for his master. "Master, why don't you ask Miss Xie where she lives? Or at least give her a voice stone! That way I can contact her easily in the future!"
Cao Li looked at the direction Xie Jinglan left without saying a word. That woman didn't believe him at all, so how could she tell him her whereabouts?
The next morning, Lu Defeng's head was hung above the south gate of Tiandu City, with a piece of paper hanging on it.
The paper read: The murdered person was Lu Defeng, the bandit leader of Yanmen Stronghold. The murderer was the person who was slandered by Lu Defeng as possessing the Hunyuan Divine Sword!
In Tiandu City, public security is strictly managed. Even if there are personal grudges, people generally don't dare to cause trouble or kill people in the city.
On the same day, two murders occurred: one was killed in the street; the other was beheaded while soliciting prostitution. This incident caused an uproar in the entire Tiandu City, attracting many people to come out to watch and talk about it.
This matter also attracted the attention of the highest authority in Tiandu City, who ordered a strict investigation and imposed strict restrictions that night.
Xingxiu Inn.
Xie Jinglan took out the sound transmission stone given by Zhong Lixiao and tried to communicate with her master.
She brushed her palm across the sound stone and told him everything that had happened since she came to this middle world.
After a long while, there was still no movement from the sound stone.
"This is the second time, Master. Are you using the wrong method?" Xiao Jinzi studied the sound transmission stone.
"The method is correct, but maybe there is some reason? Wait a little longer." Bai Cang said.
"Alright!" Xiao Jinzi put down the sound transmission stone. "Master, what do you want to do with that courtesan? You can't just leave her in our space, right?"
"Bring the person here..." Xie Jinglan was about to speak when she suddenly saw the voice stone flashing with light.
"coming!"
Xie Jinglan was surprised that she finally got in touch with her master this time.
His palm brushed across the sound transmission stone again, and Zhongli Xiao's voice came out, "Lan'er, I'm glad you're okay. I have received Yuan'er's message. He is very worried about you. Since you have already gone to Tiandu City, then wait for him there..."
