The boss's words silenced the discussion. If this was true, wouldn't it be useless for them to have not discovered any clues until now?
"What do you think, Xiaogu?" The boss looked at Lin Zhuo who was secretly dozing off while trying to fish in troubled waters.
Lin Zhuo yawned lightly: "I'll sit and watch."
"Unreasonable!" Old Mo couldn't sit still again. He was like a remnant of feudal society. He had to follow the rules in everything he did.
So he looked down on both the romantic Hongniang and the disrespectful Gu Ting. Hongniang's death did not cause any ripples in his heart. He even applauded.
Lin Zhuo slashed a knife across his face, cutting off a few strands of his beard. Old Mo was angry and scared, and he trembled and couldn't speak.
"If you can't breathe, I will send you to death right now." Lin Zhuo looked at him and raised the corners of his mouth. The arrogant smile almost made Old Mo angry.
"Okay." The eldest brother still did not say anything wrong about "Gu Ting". Instead, he asked Old Mo not to bother with a child. Old Mo held back his anger and sat down angrily.
"Since you've sneaked in, you'll be exposed sooner or later. What are you worried about? Or are you not confident in your own abilities?" Lin Zhuo continued.
At this moment, no one dared to respond to his words. Although each of them had top-notch strength individually, if they were to really go up against someone else's true strength, they couldn't guarantee that they would win.
"Xiaogu is right. Our current level is far beyond even Cheng Yu's reach. What is there to worry about?" Xiong Ben spoke up to smooth things over.
He was originally from Chen Guang, and he really wanted to work for Chen Guang at the beginning.
If there weren't people with more talent than him, especially Cheng Yu, who seemed to be the chosen one, all the good luck would have befallen him, which really made him jealous.
This time he defected, not only did he leave, but he also brought a group of his confidants to join Xingxi.
Thanks to the potion, they are now all super-level nine masters. This made Xiong Ben a little complacent for a while, and he felt that his talent was not very low.
"I'm not worried about others, but I still find you, an outsider, quite suspicious. Did you really not secretly pass on information with Chen Guang?" Ah Tu looked at Xiong Ben, and the poisonous snake on his body opened its mouth towards Xiong Ben according to Ah Tu's mood, revealing its fangs and making a hissing sound.
"What do you mean? Suspecting me?" Xiong Ben couldn't accept that Ah Tu suspected him for no reason, and his face turned black on the spot, "then aren't you more suspicious? You carry a poisonous snake with you all day long, and you're rarely seen. Where have you been?"
"Do I need to report to you where I'm going? Do you really think you're someone important?" Ah Tu was disdainful. He didn't trust Xiong Ben in the first place. He betrayed Chen Guang before, so it's not surprising that he betrayed Xingxi now.
"You!" Xiong Ben gritted his teeth in anger.
"Stop!" The boss spoke again, holding his forehead with some helplessness, "the most important thing now is to investigate the undercover agents. What about you? Are you fighting among yourselves? That's it, adjourn the meeting, get out!"
No one dared to say anything and could only leave the meeting room quietly.
After leaving the meeting room, Xiong Ben stomped his feet on the ground so loudly that the earth shook, and left angrily.
