Chapter 536 - 536 | Gao Xuan's Revelation
Knock! Knock!
"Father, may we come in?"
Gao Long called out after knocking on the door in front of him.
Gao Xuan was also standing beside him, while Ye Tian Yun was in hiding, eavesdropping on the whole situation.
"Hmm."
A light response came from the room.
The Gao brothers took a deep breath and entered the room.
Ye Tian Yun couldn\'t see what was happening inside, but he was able to overhear everything.
"What happened?" A middle-aged man\'s voice came out..
Ye Tian Yun recognized the voice as Clan Head Gao Kang\'s.
"Father, I have something important to tell you."
"It better be important. I am quite busy tonight."
"It will be worth your time," Gao Xuan replied, "Father, I have received some important information about the Second Brother\'s incident."
Outside, Ye Tian Yun frowned upon hearing this.
He didn\'t know the truth behind Gao Kang\'s incident because the latter was never a major character in his previous life.
\'Wasn\'t it the Fang Clan?\'
It was an open secret among everyone outside that the Fang Clan had ambushed the Second Young Master of Gao Clan, Gao Long.
\'But if this was true then there was no way Gao Clan would have agreed to marry Gao Suyin with Fang Chen…\'
Ye Tian Yun waited for Clan Head Gao Kang\'s response.
The room had turned quiet because the other two were taken aback by Gao Xuan\'s words.
After a few moments of silence, Gao Long\'s words were heard, "What did you find out? Last time we confirmed that it was not the Fang Clan. Did you find the real conspirator?"
"Yes," Gao Xuan pursed his lips, "It is our Third Suspect."
"Third Suspect... \'\' Gao Long and Clan Head Gao squint their eyes, "The King."
"Yes," Gao Xuan exhaled, "I have gathered some solid proofs. I have also tracked down the person who crippled Second Brother."
"Oh?" Clan Head Gao stood up from his seat, "Where is he?"
Gao Xuan replied with a sneer, "I am interrogating him right now."
"Hmm," Clan Head Gao frowned, "What else has he revealed?"
Gao Xuan pursed his lips and replied, "Regarding the Second Brother\'s incident, I have only found out it was King Xin\'s work, and he was also the one who released rumors about Fang Clan being the one behind all this."
"Oh," Clan Head Gao Kang frowned, "Anything else?"
Gao Xuan nodded, "Yes, but not related to Second Brother."
"What?"
"It\'s about the Fang Clan. A few months back, a few disciples from the Gracious Sword Sect headed towards the Silver Mist City, and the guy we caught, Mo Da, ambushed them on the way using the Thousand-something array."
"Four Hands Thousand Kills Array."
"Exactly!" Gao Xuan nodded, "This array is Fang Clan\'s signature array, and they used it to ambush those disciples. The goal was to kill those disciples and leave clues pointing towards the Fang Clan."
"Hm," Clan Head Gao frowned, "I remember there was a big argument regarding a mission, and the Crown Prince was planning something."
Gao Xuan nodded, "Crown Prince and Sect Leader Su formed an alliance for this mission. This mission is one of the core reasons why the war began at a premature stage."
Clan Head Gao nodded, "Yes, it was something related to the Third Princess of Wu Kingdom, I know a few things about that. But that\'s not important right now. Don\'t kill that Mo Da guy. I want to present him to Fang Yuan, only then the hesitation in his heart will disappear and he will understand who his enemy is."
Gao Xuan nodded, "King Xin pushed the Fang Clan to the top to break our clan, and now he\'s trying to destroy the Fang Clan so the final winner is himself. However, Father, you will have to call Prime Minister Fang here. We can\'t bring Mo Da to him."
"Hm?" Clan Head Gao frowned, "Does anyone else know about Mo Da?"
"No," Gao Xuan rubbed his face, "Actually, the condition of Mo Da is… how should I put it… it\'s quite weird."
"Did you torture him too much?" Gao Long smiled.
"No, that\'s not it," Gao Xuan denied, "It\'s the condition in which I met him. His limbs were interchanged."
"Interchanged?"
"Yes. Mo Da\'s hands were replaced by his legs, and his hands replaced his legs."
"..."
"..."
The room turned quiet.
Outside, Ye Tian Yun bit his tongue.
He vividly remembered his encounter with Mo Da on his way to Silver Mister City.
\'That guy managed to stay alive?\'
This was the most surprising note for Ye Tian Yun.
\'Next time, I won\'t joke around and simply kill the enemy.\'
…
Inside the room, it took some time for the duo to recover from their speechlessness in front of Gao Xuan.
"How did he… survive?"
Clan Head Gao asked.
Gao Xuan shrugged, "I have no idea, but luckily we were able to capture him because I was trailing behind the Gracious Sword Sect\'s entourage. This guy is the reason why I couldn\'t witness the SIlver Mist City incident."
"Oh," Clan Head Gao let out a sigh, "It\'s alright, don\'t worry about that. Rather, focus on King Xin."
Gao Xuan nodded, "Father, I am doing everything I can, but the Xin Royal Clan is too tight-lipped. It\'s hard to find any answers."
Gao Long frowned, "It\'s no surprise."
Clan Head Gao moved towards the window and staring at the darkness in front of him; he said, "The only way to defeat the Xin Royal Clan is to ally with the Fang Clan. This was the reason behind the marriage alliance. But now, things will be a bit complicated."
Gao Long nodded, "Yes, but in my opinion, we did the right thing. Fang Chen doesn\'t deserve our Third Sister."
Clan Head Gao let out a sigh, "But there was no other way."
Gao Xuan frowned, "Father, Fang Chen is not what he used to be. He\'s… someone else."
Outside, Ye Tian Yun opened his eyes wide in shock as his thumb reached the spatial ring on his index finger upon clenching his fists.
