“Yes.” Bai Qingcheng answered and then withdrew.
“Is Mo Chen in the rear courtyard?” Feng Jiu asked, looking at Leng Hua.
“Young Master Mo Chen is in the rear courtyard.” Leng Hua replied. When he saw his Master walking towards the rear courtyard, he glanced at his sister and followed them there.
Knowing ahead of time that she returned after listening to the commotion in front, Mo Chen took out the wine, poured it into two wine cups and waited until a figure in red slowly came approaching.
When he saw the breath on her body, his eyes flickered. He asked curiously, “What strength do you have now?”
Feng Jiu gave him a faint smile. “Immortal Emperor at the peak level.”
Leng Hua and Leng Shuang who stood behind her were amazed. Their Master was already the Immortal Emperor Peak Strong Exponent? It was truly inconceivable that it took her only one year to break through to the peak of the Immortal Emperor. No wonder Mo Chen said that it was a calamity and also a blessing for her.
The higher one’s cultivation, the more difficult it was to advance. There was practically no Immortal Emperor Strong Exponent existed in the Upper Continent. However, after she was missing for a year, she broke through to the Immortal Emperor Peak level. How could it not astonish anyone?
“In that case, I must congratulate you.” Mo Chen smiled and motioned to her. “Sit down.”
Feng Jiu sat at the table and told Leng Hua who stood behind her, “Have someone bring two side dishes.”
“Yes.” Leng Hua replied and then withdrew.
“I suppose they told you about your brother, too?” Mo Chen asked her as he drank the wine.
“Mm. I knew about it as soon as I came back.” She answered, taking a sip of the wine.
“What do you think? What are you going to do?” He shook the wine cup in his hand gently. While watching the wine swaying lightly, he asked this question.
“What else can I do? Of course, looking for him is the most important thing now. What’s more, I don’t think my brother would do such a thing. Besides, he has no reason to do so.”
Mo Chen gave a slight nod. “That’s right. So, I was thinking that this person may be an impersonator. He made enemies everywhere in your brother’s name. The purpose is to make all forces rise up against you. There is another possibility, that is, if this person is not an impersonator, but really Guan Xilin, he is very likely to be under someone’s control.”
Feng Jiu’s eyes flashed at this conjecture. “I have about the same thought. That might be the case.”
Her voice trailed off. “If that man is an impersonator, my brother must be in danger right now. Otherwise, it’s impossible not to come back after hearing all that’s going on out there. I’m more worried about his safety at the moment.”
“It’s a pity that so far we haven’t found out who did it so that we are unable to make a move against them.” Mo Chen sighed. “We have mobilized everyone to seek information. Even Black Market’s people have helped us to make inquiries, but there is no news.”
“Don’t you have any people and forces you suspect?” Feng Jiu glanced at him. “After such a long investigation, there is not the slightest doubt?”
Mo Chen smiled. “I knew you would ask that.”
He said with a smile, “It’s not that we have no suspicion towards that side. At present, the person who can have such movement and strength is probably only the demon clan. In particular, I heard that you have killed several of the ten great devilry cultivators under the Demon Lord.. But the demon clan’s territory is not a place that cultivators like us can infiltrate easily.”
