Chapter 708 Journey to the Mountains and Seas 16
A moment later, he turned back and asked, "How did you find this place? How did you get in?"
This is the territory of the Power Gang; you can't find it without someone leading the way, and no one can just come in freely.
"I just went to see your gang leader."
Liu Suifeng recalled that not long ago he was kneeling outside the guild leader's hall when he was suddenly forced back to his room. He never expected that the guild leader wanted to see her.
"Who exactly are you? Why does the gang leader want to see you?"
"Who am I? You've asked me several times before, don't you know? I've come to you because I have something to say." Wen Piaoran found a place to sit down.
"What else do you want?" Liu Suifeng looked at her, wondering what she wanted to say to him.
“Your leader has been poisoned for many years. With his internal strength, he won’t last much longer. You can try to persuade him. It would be better to listen to my advice.”
The more Liu Suifeng listened, the more solemn his expression became: "What exactly happened? How could the gang leader...?"
He didn't question her words, because she had just spoken with the gang leader, and he could find out the truth by asking her.
"Hmm, I suggested he become emperor directly, but he hesitated. This isn't like the usual style of your Power Clique."
Thinking back to her conversation with Li Chenzhou just now, he seemed so indifferent to everything, as if he had already taken life and death lightly.
He only started to act like a normal person after he spoke directly and pointed out the outcome for the people he cared about.
The two even sparred a bit to test each other. It was mainly Li Chenzhou who was testing her so that she could sit down and talk calmly, since she was the one who had trespassed on his territory.
She herself didn't want to be emperor, but Li Chenzhou seemed more suitable than the current emperor.
Upon hearing this, Liu Suifeng was very clever and immediately realized that the poison in the gang leader's body was related to the royal family.
Many things flashed through his mind, and when he came back to look at Wen Piaoran, she was no longer there.
This person can actually appear and disappear without a trace even within the Power Gang.
Remembering her words, Liu Suifeng went to find the gang leader again, but was stopped by someone when he reached the outside of the hall.
He had no choice but to raise his voice and say, "Chief, Sui Feng has something to say."
Li Chenzhou still met with him and dismissed everyone else, asking, "What is it?"
"Chief, your health now..." Liu Suifeng's eyes were filled with worry. He didn't need to say the rest; both of them understood what he meant.
Li Chenzhou lowered his eyes, looking at the words he had just written, which were all about the traitors within the Power Gang.
Upon hearing this, he continued writing without looking up: "Sui Feng, you just met someone."
"Yes, that person is Ning Qi, whom I mentioned before. She came to see the gang leader. Do you know her?" Liu Suifeng thought for a moment and then asked.
Li Chenzhou smirked: "Your previous guess was correct; she is the person you were thinking of."
"Qingyun Sect," Liu Suifeng murmured, though he wasn't actually that surprised.
"She has already revealed to me who was behind your scheme, so let's leave it at that for now. However, you still need to go to Wudang and Shaolin to apologize."
"I understand, but who exactly is impersonating the gang leader?" It turns out, she had helped him.
Li Chenzhou said three words, and Liu Suifeng was somewhat surprised: "I didn't expect it to be him."
"Yes, but you still need to personally investigate and confirm it, as well as the people above. If the investigation confirms it, then deal with them all."
After Li Chenzhou finished speaking, he tossed the list he had just written out into the air.
Liu Suifeng reached out and caught it. When he saw the names on it, his eyes turned cold. He hadn't expected so many people to betray their leader.
"Yes, I obey." He said, remembering Wen Piaoran's request to persuade the gang leader: "Gang leader, about the other things she mentioned..."
Li Chenzhou thought of the woman who had just told him to rebel, and felt a headache coming on: "I know what I'm doing. You may leave now."
Liu Suifeng nodded, knowing that the gang leader naturally had his reasons for doing things.
But he was still worried about the leader's health, and walked out with a furrowed brow, thinking of possible solutions.

After leaving Liu Suifeng's place, Wen Piaoran was invited by a beautiful woman.
At this moment, she and Zhao Shirong were sitting in a pavilion talking.
"I wonder if I should address you as Miss Ning, or simply as Sect Leader Wen?" Zhao Shirong said with a smile, and personally poured her tea.
Wen Piaoran took the teacup and casually said, "Madam, you can call me whatever you like."
She looked up at the beautiful woman opposite her and thought to herself, "She's beautiful, so she has the final say."
Although I am also very beautiful, appreciating the beauty of others is different; the two of us have different styles of beauty.
Seeing that she was wearing a mask, Zhao Shirong understood the situation: "Since there's no one else around, I'll address her as Sect Leader Wen."
"Very well, may I ask what business the Lady of the Gang has with me?"
"I overheard the conversation between Sect Leader Wen and Shen Zhou. I want to know if the antidote that Sect Leader Wen mentioned is genuine?"
She watched as Shen Zhou grew weaker with each trip to the palace, and her heart ached as if it were being torn apart.
But there was nothing that could stop his decision, and we knew why he was holding back.
Wen Piaoran nodded: "Of course it's true, but you know how stubborn Chief Li is, so try to persuade him."
She felt that the drama portrayed Li Chenzhou as someone who valued righteousness and was willing to sacrifice everyone, including himself, and that his attitude of not resisting was somewhat unreasonable.
When Zhao Shirong heard that the poison could be cured, she was initially overjoyed, but then her eyes dimmed as she learned that Shen Zhou was very difficult to persuade.
She didn't care whether he became emperor or not, but the thought of Shenzhou being controlled like this made her uncomfortable.
But there was no other way before. Now that there is a way, she really doesn't want to watch Chen Zhou continue like this until he dies.
Wen Piaoran had been observing Zhao Shirong's expression. Seeing the changes in her eyes, and finally the increasingly determined look in them, it seemed that she had made up her mind.
Actually, the reason she came to see her was because she felt that if Li Chenzhou wanted to awaken, he needed the efforts of those around him to persuade him more.
If all else fails, I'll just push him into that position myself.
However, she wouldn't give up the antidote pill for free.
She already had what she wanted, and thinking of this, she curled her lips into a smile.
Given Li Chenzhou and Zhao Shirong's personalities, they knew what she wanted and wouldn't easily agree, so some people had to come to her in person.
The villains have the power to help the people and Xiao Qiushui deal with them, now all we need to do is change the emperor.
After thinking it through, Zhao Shirong said, "Thank you, Sect Leader Wen. I will speak to Chen Zhou. Once we have discussed it, we can talk about the antidote pill and other matters."
She doesn't trust people blindly; it's just that Qingyun Sect has had a good reputation and credibility since its establishment.
Furthermore, Sect Leader Wen clearly stated her purpose and the reason for helping; she did not hide anything, which is why she is trustworthy.
"Alright, then I'll wait for news from Chief Li and his wife."
Wen Piaoran knew that this matter couldn't be rushed, and she still needed to go see Xiao Qiushui.
