Chapter 437: What do you plan to do?
Seeing the old man's dumbfounded and undisguised surprise, Gu Heng felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction.
Although I don't mean to praise one and criticize the other, I have to say that when people visit Su Jinxi, who has cats as pets, they generally don't have this kind of expression, since keeping cats is not a rare thing.
Raising dragons is a completely different story.
Any ordinary person would be terrified if they saw a dragon.
If the old man wasn't terrified and turned pale, it's probably because he had good composure. After all, he practices calligraphy, and maintaining a calm mind at all times is very important.
After the chaos at the clinic this morning, Gu Heng initially didn't have high hopes for this so-called "pet helper." But his opinion has completely changed.
Xiaobai is very smart.
Whatever he does, Little White flies over to watch. After watching him do it, Little White learns to do it himself.
Although he can't do jobs that require delicate handling, he's already good at simple tasks like making tea and cleaning.
If it weren't for the fear that Xiaobai's dragon claws might tear the clothes.
Gu Heng even wanted him to be responsible for washing all of his and Qin Yiyao's clothes from now on.
"Alright, forget about him, just tell me what's on your mind."
Gu Heng waved his hand, telling Xiaobai to go back to the clinic to continue cleaning, or fly around as she pleased, just don't disturb the adults' conversation.
Xiao Bai gave a pitiful reply, then vanished into the depths of the clinic in a flash. Old Gu paused, then swallowed hard and said, "It's like this, Young Master Gu... I have some new information about what happened last time, when your disciple was injured."
One listen.
Gu Heng's expression immediately became subtle.
What about the little girl's injury?
Damn, almost three months have passed!
To be honest, this could all be filed under the "Past Events" section in Gu Heng's diary.
Although he still remembers, he definitely doesn't want to remember for that long.
Furthermore, the culprit, Qingfeng Baoxing, had already been destroyed. At that time, he had no strength and no temporary experience voucher, which was comparable to a transformation device. Therefore, he was extremely angry, but there was nothing he could do.
Otherwise, Gu Heng would definitely go to their door to get revenge himself!
Now that the little girl is lively and energetic again, Gu Heng even took her to the capital to cheer her up and prevent this matter from affecting her.
The result was good.
When the old man came to the door, that was the first thing he said.
However, Gu Heng still remembered that when Qin Yiyao fell into a coma and her life was uncertain, this old man took the initiative to stand up and said he wanted to do something for her... At the time, he was very puzzled, thinking that this old man, who had no martial arts skills except for being able to write beautiful characters, would say such seemingly presumptuous things.
But that attitude still touched Gu.
"Uh, well, this is... well, never mind, just tell me, is there any new information?"
Gu Heng actually wanted to let the matter drop and couldn't be bothered with it. However, since Old Gu had already come all this way, and it seemed that this old man had actually gotten some exciting news, he made a special trip even though it was almost dark.
"Let's hear it." "Here's what happened. I contacted a few old friends and asked them to investigate the 'backer' behind the Blood Shadow Tower. And what they found out was quite something!"
Old Gu took a sip of hot tea and caught his breath.
Gu Heng raised an eyebrow: "Blood Shadow Tower... what kind of backer?"
Old Gu put down his teacup: "Behind the Blood Shadow Tower is the remnant force of the Evil Cultivator Alliance! A very large force that has already been accepted!"
"Blood Shadow Tower is a network of assassins they set up throughout the Xuan Tian Realm, specifically for taking on jobs!"
"The connection between the two is very subtle. It took my old buddies a lot of effort to barely figure out some clues."
Upon hearing this, Gu Heng frowned.
After being enlightened by the old man, he remembered that Qingfeng Baoxing had hired assassins from Xueyinglou to deal with the little girl.
Later, Gu Heng took Qin Yiyao to the capital of Riyan, where they also met Bai Feier and mentioned the matter.
She told herself that the Blood Shadow Tower branch within the territory of the Sunflame Dynasty had been completely eradicated, leaving not a trace.
At the time, Gu Heng felt that this was a complete resolution to a troublesome matter. Qingfeng Baoxing, which had provided the funds, was gone, and the Xueyinglou branch, which was responsible for the operation, was also gone.
Although Blood Shadow Tower is a chain store with branches all over the world, Gu Heng did not intend to cause trouble for other Blood Shadow Towers at the time.
There's a cause for every wrong, and a debtor for every debt. Gu Heng isn't the type to go around looking for someone to implicate.
but……
It sounds like some powerful force is operating behind the scenes.
"Your old buddies are really resourceful; they even managed to find out this kind of information."
Gu Heng clicked his tongue in amazement. This old man, a frail scholar, where did he get to know such a capable old friend?
This method seems beyond the capabilities of ordinary people, but the differences between cultivators and ordinary people are significant, so it's unlikely he knows any cultivators.
"You flatter me. Those old folks are easily flattered... Of course, I'm here to ask for your opinion as well."
"Should we continue the investigation?"
The old man asked, while also watching Gu Heng's changing expression.
