C158 (2/2)
”Young Hall Master, could there be some sort of adultery between the two of them? That woman was bewitched by Ning Luo to come here and seek revenge.”
Ning Luo frowned and looked at Nie Zhen, thinking to himself, ”No wonder Red Rose said you're all idiots, she's not lying at all.”
”But why did they rescue the Hu family? How could Ning Luo be so familiar with the layout of Dragon and Phoenix Villa?”
The security of Dragon Phoenix Villa was extremely tight. Even experts at the False Immortal Stage wouldn't be able to directly enter the dungeon in the backyard without being discovered. Ning Luo's words were just to disturb everyone.
In Nie Zhen's ears, this was tantamount to blaming him. He knew the consequences of neglecting his duty, and immediately kneeled on the ground and begged for mercy.
”Young Palace Lord, your subordinate deserves to die, your subordinate deserves to die.”
His ruckus gave Ning Luo a reason to do so, so he turned around immediately.
”Did you let them in on purpose?”
Nie Zhen was scared to the point that his entire body was shaking. He couldn't carry such a black pot on his back. If he did, wouldn't he become a spy? He would be executed for his crimes.
”Young Palace Lord, your subordinate was wrongly accused, your subordinate was wrongly accused!”
Ning Luo just wanted to scare him a little, so that he wouldn't dare to doubt her. Seeing such an effect, he was naturally very satisfied.
”Alright, get up first.”
Hearing that, Nie Yan forgave himself and stood up with the support of his underlings.
”Thank you …” Thank you, Young Hall Master, for your grace to not kill me. ”
Ning Luo put his hands behind his back and raised his head to look at the two. Suddenly, he gave a cold snort.
”You can avoid death, but you can never forgive living crimes. Right now, I suspect that there is a spy in the Dragon Phoenix Villa. You must find one for me, or else you can ask, do you understand?”
Ning Luo's voice suddenly grew louder, and both of their bodies trembled. If something like this happened, they wouldn't be blamed, but at least they would have some responsibility. On this point, Nie Zhen didn't dare to argue anymore.
”This subordinate understands. This subordinate will do everything I can to quickly find the culprit.”
”Mm …” ”Alright, I'll believe you this once more. This time, the murderer saved Hu Dian, so you should keep some of the matter with Hu Die. Don't let her escape.”
Hearing this, Nie Zhen was delighted. He had made the right decision.
”This subordinate has already done so. Young Hall Master, please be at ease.”
This was far beyond Ning Luo's expectations. She meaningfully looked at them for a moment, then stood up and walked over to Nie Zhen's side.
”Alright, all of you go and prepare. I need to rest as well.”
With that, Ning Luo walked outside, and the two quickly knelt down to pay their respects.
”We respectfully send you off, Young Hall Master.”
When Nie Zhen got up again, his respectful expression suddenly disappeared. He turned around and said to the guards behind him.
”Hurry up and find a scapegoat, do you understand what I mean?”
The guard hesitated for a moment, then cupped his hands towards Nie Zhen and said, ”Don't worry, general director. This subordinate will do as you say.”
