The door opened, and Wei Duoduo walked in, bowing respectfully to Jiang Mo with an almost pious attitude: "Lord Gu God, Qu Tong is already waiting outside."

Zhang Chulan noticed that Wei Duoduo's eyes were filled with admiration and awe when she looked at Jiang Mo, as if Jiang Mo were truly some kind of god.

This look deepened Zhang Chulan's doubts.

Last night, Jiang Mo's question, "Do you know why Wei Duoduo calls me the God of Gu?" echoed in his mind again.

Could it be... could it be that my older brother is really not an ordinary person?

Jiang Mo nodded: "Let's go."

The group followed Jiang Mo out of the villa and came outside.

Qu Tong and Ma Xianhong had been waiting there for a long time.

The moment Zhang Chulan saw her, he noticed Qu Tong's unusual behavior.

The confident, flamboyant, and powerful elder I once met in Biyou Village.

Now he was looking down, his eyes darting around, and even his posture revealed a hint of unease and fear.

Upon seeing Jiang Mo appear, Qu Tong visibly tensed up, managing a strained smile: "Good morning, Mr. Jiang."

Jiang Mo simply nodded slightly without saying a word.

However, this action made Qu Tong's breathing become even more rapid, as if she was worried that she had angered Jiang Mo.

"Can we... set off now?" Qu Tong asked cautiously, her voice a few decibels lower than usual.

"Lead the way," Jiang Mo said curtly, his expression indifferent.

"Okay...okay." Qu Tong nodded hurriedly, turned around and led the way, her movements somewhat flustered.

Ma Xianhong glanced at Jiang Mo, a flash of anger in his eyes.

But after meeting Jiang Mo's calm gaze, she quickly lowered her head, not daring to look him in the eye.

The group followed Qu Tong and headed towards the mountainous area in the north of Nathan Island.

Along the way, Zhang Chulan kept observing Qu Tong and Ma Xianhong's reactions.

Both of them appeared unusually nervous, especially Qu Tong.

Whenever Jiang Mo looked at her, he would involuntarily tremble.

"Why are these two so afraid of Big Brother?" Zhang Chulan wondered to himself.

"Qu Tong is an elder of Biyou Village, and she is definitely a top-notch expert in the world of supernatural beings."

"Why is she so afraid? What Big Brother said about the Gu God yesterday... could it be true?"

Thinking of this, Zhang Chulan couldn't help but scrutinize Jiang Mo.

Jiang Mo's appearance is definitely that of a handsome person in the world of supernatural beings.

He is also very tall.

You'll definitely stand out in a crowd.

Especially his indescribable aura.

It's as if they can see through everything.

That gaze sent chills down your spine.

It was at this moment that Zhang Chulan remembered that since he met Jiang Mo, he had never seen Jiang Mo stumped by anything.

No matter what situation he encounters, Jiang Mo can always handle it with ease, as if everything is under his control.

"If my elder brother really is the God of Gu, then that makes sense..."

Zhang Chulan pondered to himself, a strange sense of awe rising within him.

However, they weren't given much time to think about it.

After a long and arduous journey, we finally arrived at a hidden cave in the northern mountains.

The surrounding area was densely wooded and entwined with vines; if Qu Tong hadn't led the way, they would never have found this place.

"This is it." Qu Tong stopped and pointed to the cave ahead, a hint of relief in her voice. "Ruan Feng is inside."

Jiang Mo glanced at the cave and nodded: "You two wait outside."

Upon hearing this, Qu Tong felt as if she had been granted a pardon and breathed a sigh of relief, clearly pleased to have avoided any potential conflict.

"Yes, Mr. Jiang." Qu Tong nodded respectfully and quickly stepped aside.

Ma Xianhong glanced at his sister, then at Jiang Mo, his gaze filled with complex emotions.

But in the end he didn't say anything, and just followed Qu Tong to the side.

Jiang Mo led Zhang Chulan and Feng Baobao into the cave.

The cave was dark and damp, but as you went deeper...

They discovered that the cave was gradually becoming more spacious and brighter.

Modern light fixtures are also hanging on the walls, illuminating the entire space.

After walking for about ten minutes, we arrived at a space that resembled a laboratory.

Various strange instruments and devices were scattered all around.

It appears to have both traces of modern technology and shadows of ancient witchcraft.

Standing in the very center was a short, thin old man with gray hair and a withered face.

He was engrossed in studying a glowing stone and was completely unaware that someone had entered.

"Nguyen Phuong."

Upon seeing the other person, Jiang Mo immediately spoke, his voice echoing through the cave.

Hearing someone approaching, the old man looked up.

Upon seeing the person who arrived, his face turned somewhat pale.

How did anyone find this place?

"Who...who are you? How did you find this place?"

As he spoke, his gaze swept over the group of people.

Finally, her gaze settled on Jiang Mo, filled with fear.

This person seems to be the leader of this group.

But how did they know I was here?

What do you want from me?

If he remembered correctly, he didn't know this group of people at all.

Their arrival at this time is quite unusual.

“One of the Thirty-Six Thieves, Ruan Feng.” Jiang Mo seemed not to notice the other person’s expression.

He spoke directly.

"Zhang Chulan has something to ask you."

Upon hearing the title "Thirty-Six Thieves,"

Ruan Feng became somewhat wary, and even his eyes showed fear.

His gaze swept over the group, finally settling on Zhang Chulan.

"Zhang Chulan?" Ruan Feng frowned, looking Zhang Chulan up and down. "That kid from the Zhang family?"

There is only one person with the surname Zhang.

In other words, Zhang Chulan is the other party's descendant.

I didn't realize so much time had passed.

Upon hearing the question, Zhang Chulan stepped forward, his chest heaving.

His breathing became rapid.

I only recently learned about the rumors of the Thirty-Six Thieves.

It is said that this is a group of powerful and mysterious individuals whose whereabouts are somehow connected to his grandfather's death.

Now, I've finally met one of them.

"I want to know about my grandfather." Zhang Chulan's voice trembled slightly as he looked at the other person. "His death...is it related to you?"

His grandfather was also one of the Thirty-Six Thieves.

If there's any connection, you can't say for sure, can you?

Upon hearing this question, Ruan Feng's eyes showed some complexity.

After watching Zhang Chulan for a while, his mood gradually returned to normal and then he calmed down.

He sighed deeply and shook his head at Zhang Chulan: "Child, knowing too much about some things isn't a good thing."

"I must know the truth!"

I came here to find out the truth about my grandfather's death.

How could we give up just because of a few words from them?

"This is why I came to Nathan Island; I need to know how my grandfather died!"

Ruan Feng glanced at Jiang Mo and assessed the current situation.

It seemed he had no room to refuse.

"The Thirty-Six Thieves are indeed related to your grandfather's death," Ruan Feng finally spoke.
