Tomb Raiders: After the Nine Gates Ancestor, they let loose and did whatever they wanted!

Wei Wuxian's hearty laughter nearly caused him to drop the fragrant red spider lily from his hand, which Feng Che casually snatched away...

The words, falling into the ears of the Nine Gates leaders who were currently in a state of self-isolation, drew their frequent glances.

Seeing the people kneeling before them begging for mercy sent another pang of heartache through them.

Some were misled by "it" but were not replaced; they were merely undercover agents.

Their strong will to survive made them repeatedly beg for mercy: "Master, I was wrong!"

"I was wrong, please give me another chance, I will definitely change my ways!"

……

"Gentlemen, spare us!" they cried, kowtowing repeatedly, tears streaming down their faces, trying to grab their trouser legs.

They try to soften the hearts of those in front of them by complaining about their past efforts, even if they didn't achieve anything significant, and by reminiscing about their happy memories.

Among them, only Master Xie was the most deeply affected; people like Old Dog Wu were merely angry at his lack of ambition.

After all, even Zhang Dafoye's family wasn't spared, but they were all insignificant figures.

Even if the Zhang family's collateral branch is incompetent, it still possesses some strength, and its characteristics are too obvious for "it" to replace.

If I feel heartbroken, it's only for those who were murdered and replaced. Now I'm only thinking about avenging them!

The effects of the incense and their anger actually made them even more awake in the middle of the night!

Master Jie looked at the row of concubines kneeling at his feet—no, now they were a row of spies!

Some were replaced by "it," while others were lured and turned into undercover agents...

Moreover, among the nine families, the Xie family is the wealthiest and has the most servants. Compared to the other families, it has been more heavily infiltrated by "it".

Nearly half of those present, including both men and women, were members of the Xie family!

Master Xie: My head hurts so much!

I just want to die! (*≧m≦*)

Even the old man who cleaned the house, whom he had never spoken to and had only met a few times, was actually a young man in disguise who was stealing information!

Master Jie felt his blood surging and his vision going black. Half of the person next to him was actually "it's" person. Master Jie was really lucky to be alive!

With a mouthful of blood stuck in his throat, if it weren't for that half stick of refreshing incense, Master Xie Jiu would have collapsed backwards while holding on to his breath!

The resourceful, shrewd, and exceptionally intelligent Master Xie has broken down!

The defenses have been breached! (*?????)

At this moment, Sixth Master, who had been practicing his sword alone and carefree, watched the farce unfold before him with a face full of anger.

The knife in his hand was itching to strike; if Qi Tiezui hadn't stopped him and told him not to cause trouble, Black-backed Sixth Brother would have been unable to restrain himself long ago!

In this ridiculous courtyard, there were several familiar faces to Sixth Master. They were the servants of the Huo and Wu families, including many skilled ones, who had all been replaced!

Among those pleading were several unfamiliar girls, presumably from the Huo family.

My gaze shifted slightly, and looking again at her opulent attire, I realized she must be a concubine of the Xie family.

Jie Jiu, oh Jie Jiu, you've racked up a whole string of romantic entanglements. Now, isn't this your retribution?

Seeing Master Jie's ashen face, Black-backed Sixth Brother ultimately refrained from speaking aloud, only inwardly mocking and ridiculing him.

As for why fewer people replaced Half Plum and Dried Tangerine Peel?

Are there few betrayals?

Half-Leaf Li had many disabled men under his command. If they were replaced, there would be too many weaknesses, and their movements would be inconvenient. Therefore, they were spared from being harmed.

Furthermore, an undercover agent doesn't need to cripple himself, since there are plenty of targets to choose from.

The men, having received kindness from Third Master, were utterly loyal. Making a living in such chaotic times was incredibly difficult for them, so naturally they knew how to be grateful.

The problem is even easier with dried tangerine peel!

He was like a hunting dog with a keen sense of smell; once he detected something unusual...

They would pounce without hesitation, preferring to kill ten thousand innocent people rather than let one guilty person go free!

Through the subtle guidance of Wei Wuxian and Er Yuehong, Chen Pi learned the meaning of "benevolence."

If the wrong person was killed, give their family some compensation. If they have no family, erect a monument to comfort them.

And so, many of those "it" people were unwittingly and easily dealt with by Chenpi, missing out on tonight's feast!

(￣y▽￣)~* Cover your mouth and snicker

"It" died without knowing why it had been exposed, dying with its eyes wide open in disbelief!

Chenpi: I don't like you. You don't seem like a good person. You're good for taking the blame for me!

Whether you survive or not depends on your abilities.

If "it" were in a crisis, its identity would definitely be exposed! ↗

(?▼益▼)

The method of using dried tangerine peel is rough, but surprisingly effective!

Buddy: Working for Fourth Master is like risking your life; you never know when you'll be thrown out!

Fortunately, Fourth Master was generous; people die for money, just as birds die for food! Despite knowing Chen Pi's ruthless ways, many desperate men still rushed to join him!

The reputation of the ruthless Fourth Master of the Nine Gates for his disregard for human life grew louder and louder, but Chen Pi didn't care about any of that!

Even the harshest words were nothing to him; after all, those people could only be verbally abusive.

Chen Xiaopi: Master, I catch spies every time! ↗

ψ(｀?′)ψ!

Er Yuehong: Master knows, dried tangerine peel is the best!

OS: Children deserve praise, and teachers should show more care; children have delicate hearts.

Chen Xiaopi: Hehe~?* ???? ??

Wait a minute! Something's not right? Could Master have been replaced too?

(Testing the waters) (Making trouble) (Getting scolded) (Running away quickly before getting beaten)

I recognized him in his eyes; he's definitely my master!

Er Yuehong: This brat is so easily flattered! ↗
