Chen Mo felt something was not quite right.
He had long heard that Prince Yu was critically ill and bedridden, yet now that they’ve come knocking at the door, there still wasn’t the slightest movement?
Moreover, as one of the few remaining royal kin, the defenses at Prince Yu Mansion were indeed too weak.
After the old steward was killed by the Princess, there wasn’t even a single significant expert remaining...
Could it be that in this grand mansion, there is only one Grandmaster at the Heavenly Human Realm level?
Seeing his tightly knit brows, Yu Hongyin approached and asked, "Mr. Chen, is there a problem?"
"Nothing..."
Chen Mo scanned the surroundings and said, "Take these people out regardless of whether they’re dead or alive; it counts as giving the sect an explanation. This secret chamber is evidence against Chu Heng and needs to be sealed immediately."
"I’ll go and check elsewhere first."
"Alright."
Yu Hongyin nodded in agreement.
After Chen Mo left, the air in the secret chamber became quiet.
Qiao Tong looked at his haggard junior brother with some sadness and said in a low voice, "I never expected that the Heir of Prince Yu would practice evil techniques and secretly kill so many people..."
"If it weren’t for Mr. Chen, we might never have discovered the truth, let alone rescue anyone..."
Yu Hongyin sighed, "Yes, this debt of gratitude keeps growing."
In her heart, she also understood that Chen Mo’s main purpose this time was to deal with Chu Heng; rescuing people was only secondary.
But that was not important.
A gentleman judges deeds, not intentions. The fact remains that Chen Mo, undeterred by power, stormed into the mansion and saved the lives of the Netherworld Sect disciples.
Combined with the various incidents that had happened before, Yu Hongyin’s feelings became even more complicated.
While he usually joked and behaved absurdly, when it mattered, he was resolute and cold, repeatedly turning the tide...
The closer she got to Chen Mo, the more she realized how little she knew about him.
"The death of a direct disciple should be reported to the sect immediately."
Qiao Tong hesitated for a moment, cautiously asking, "Holy Daughter, should we report the matter of Mr. Chen taking the Erosion Light Hourglass as well?"
This Holy Treasure is accompanied by the Yin Yang Qi and holds significant meaning for the Netherworld Sect; otherwise, they wouldn’t have pursued Fu Li relentlessly for decades.
Yu Hongyin was silent for a moment upon hearing this and then shook her head, "What Erosion Light Hourglass? I didn’t see anything."
"..."
Qiao Tong showed a faint smile, understanding, "I understand."
"Yes, first take the people out, then notify other sects to come and identify the bodies."
"Understood."
