Scorpion

Chapter 986 Searching for Xiaolingtong

Ye Cangtian did not hide anything, and directly explained the situation in general terms.

He knew that the other party asked these questions undoubtedly to reply to Lan Yue, and Lan Yue must have been worried about his actions this time.

At the same time, from what Kulumen said last night, it was not difficult to see that the mole in the Dark Association was not the Butcher as he imagined, but Zi Long.

Because the Butcher knew that he and Gui Wu had come together, but Zi Long did not know this.

And Kulumen said before that the six Earth-level powerhouses were all prepared for him, which meant that Tianwang also did not know that Gui Wu had come together.

Therefore, Ye Cangtian was even more certain that Zi Long was the one who sold information to Tianwang, so there was nothing wrong with telling the Butcher everything.

"My lord's strength is truly unfathomable, making us look up to you."

Listening to the situation last night, the Butcher's eyes widened. He did not expect that his single suggestion would lead to the ambush of Breaking Dawn, making him extremely dangerous.

Even more unexpected was that Breaking Dawn would break the siege so easily, which truly shocked him and made him admire him greatly.

"Alright, enough idle talk, what about the matter I asked you to investigate?"

Ye Cangtian directly interrupted the Butcher's flattery, his expression becoming serious.

What he cared about now was Ci Tun's family affairs. Only by confirming it without a doubt could he determine whether Ci Tun was genuinely surrendering or faking his submission.

Upon hearing this, the Butcher quickly replied, "My brothers have just sent news, and everything the lord said is true. We just don't know how to deal with them. Please give us instructions, my lord."

Hearing this, Ye Cangtian smiled and said indifferently, "Temporarily bring them out, then send them back to the capital and let Lan Yue settle them properly!"

As he spoke, Ye Cangtian glanced at Ci Tun and continued, "Can you accept such an arrangement?"

"Yes, as long as the lord treats them well, I have no objections," Ci Tun quickly replied.

In fact, since joining Tianwang, he knew that his life was precarious.

Therefore, to prevent any unforeseen circumstances in the future, whether in Tianwang or now surrendering to the Dark Association, he would entrust his family to the other party.

This way, even if he died in battle one day, his family would be well taken care of and live without worry.

This was also the reason why he fought desperately and did not escape with Kulumen.

It was just that he did not expect Kulumen to betray him, disregarding loyalty.

Feeling disheartened, he then defected to Breaking Dawn.

"Good, since that is the case, I permit you to see them off when they leave Kill City. Butcher will inform you of all arrangements!" Ye Cangtian said, seeing that the other party had no objections.

This was to reassure Ci Tun, and also to make him clearly understand that his mother and children were going to Huaxia, so as not to act treacherously.

"Thank you, Lord Breaking Dawn. Your subordinate is immensely grateful," Ci Tun quickly bowed.

On the other side.

Upon receiving Ye Cangtian's instructions, the Butcher immediately left to make arrangements.

Seeing this, Ye Cangtian brought Ci Tun into the room.

Taking this opportunity, he could understand the specific situation of Tianwang.

After a detailed inquiry, Ye Cangtian gained a general understanding of Tianwang.

Since Tianwang had trained five cardinals last time, and they had their first taste of success by assassinating Qing Dao, it proved that Tianwang's assassination methods had some merit.

Therefore, Tianwang also received strong support from the Bright Hall.

This time, the Bright Hall provided eight Nine-Turn Golden Pills at once.

In order to enhance Tianwang's strength and enable it to contend with the Dark Association and Huaxia forces, Blood Night had made a fierce move.

Blood Night selected the eight most promising Xuan-level assassins within Tianwang and improved their strength.

The results were immediate. In just half a month, Tianwang gained eight more Earth-level powerhouses, and its strength suddenly surged.

However, it must be said that this was also Tianwang's limit.

Due to the loss of many talents in previous operations, after promoting this batch of assassins, there were no individuals with outstanding potential among the remaining Xuan-level assassins.

In other words, even if the Bright Hall continued to provide Tianwang with Nine-Turn Golden Pills, Tianwang would not be able to produce more Earth-level powerhouses.

In this regard, Ye Cangtian sneered. This was the foundation. If this happened to the Dark Association or Huaxia forces, such a gap would never occur.

But when it came to Tianwang, they could only go all out.

In addition to this information, Ye Cangtian also tried to understand Blood Night's situation and whereabouts.

To this, Ci Tun stated that he knew very little.

Firstly, they were only selected, and in Blood Night's eyes, their loyalty was not yet high.

Secondly, as a fellow God of Assassination, Blood Night paid great attention to personal safety.

He was also worried about being assassinated by others and then replaced, so his whereabouts were extremely confidential.

Perhaps only confidantes like Kulumen knew the specific details.

And they usually only knew the overt headquarters of Tianwang, but Blood Night rarely stayed at the headquarters except in special circumstances.

Hearing this, Ye Cangtian glanced at Gui Wu and shrugged, "It seems we still need to find Kulumen!"

Heh.

Upon hearing this, Gui Wu let out a dry chuckle at Ye Cangtian, then said grumpily, "Boss, you should face reality!

You just saw Truman today, and he's already a frightened bird. How can we find him again?"

Ye Cangtian replied playfully, "Have you forgotten that we have a 'gossip monger' friend here?"

Gossip monger?

Gui Wu was slightly stunned, then immediately understood and said, "You mean Xiao Lingtong? Yes, we should look for him. He dared to trick this mama, this mama will definitely make him taste my power!"

Although she said so, Gui Wu still found it difficult the next moment and continued, "But Xiao Lingtong is in a similar situation. After he tricked us, does he still dare to go to the City of Desires?"

"If he's not stupid, he won't dare to go to the City of Desires in the next few days," Ye Cangtian said with a smile.

Huh?

Gui Wu was stunned and asked in confusion, "Then isn't that what you said in vain? Where can we find him!"

Hearing this, Ye Cangtian smiled slightly and said playfully, "We can't, but I think Ci Tun might have a way?"

It was very simple, the reason Butcher and others couldn't find out things was due to their limited identities.

Coupled with not having entered Tianwang, the information they obtained was naturally limited.

But Ci Tun, who was in front of him, was different.

He was now one of Tianwang's Gods of Assassination, so it was not difficult to find Xiao Lingtong.

Moreover, Xiao Lingtong colluded with Kulumen for profit and had tricked many assassins. This would surely attract the attention of several Gods of Assassination, who would then investigate.

However, in the end, it was Kulumen's face that suppressed the matter.

As Ye Cangtian expected, when Ye Cangtian's gaze fell on Ci Tun, Ci Tun also spoke.

"My lord, I know a few of Xiao Lingtong's hideouts, perhaps I can help you..."

Just as Ye Cangtian had thought, Xiao Lingtong had tricked many assassins, and many assassins were dissatisfied with him, and even wanted to assassinate him at one point.

During that period, Xiao Lingtong went into hiding. It was not until Kulumen intervened and assigned him a group of subordinates that Xiao Lingtong's life was saved!
