However, Second Old Master Gu was already furious. The hatred in his eyes was plainly visible. “Let her speak!”
Nobody knew that he had rushed to the scene when he received the news back then. That bloody image had always been lingering in his mind for all these years. His wife laid in a pool of blood, and his daughter had already become a blurred mess of flesh and blood.
At that moment, he had thought that Fang Hongxiu was dead.
He nearly went along with Fang Hongxiu.
This image was very vivid in his mind for all these years. There were many times when he would wake up in the middle of the night after dreaming of this cruel scene. Every time he saw Fang Hongxiu lying on the bed, he would think of that car accident. No, that massacre.
He had been looking for the murderer back then.
The woman smiled coldly. “Very simple. Aventura gave the brooch to Ye Ling back then. Can a child be capable of commanding the Black Rose? Wishful thinking. Hence, we took it back again and re-selected a person to command the Black Rose. It was until recently that the brooch was stolen, and it landed in the hands of Gu Yuanli by accident. And he gave the brooch to you. Actually, I also want to know why he gave the brooch to you!”
Gu Yuanli closed his eyes slightly.
Why?
It was such a simple matter.
“It suited her.” Gu Yuanli responded.
Second Old Master Gu said in a low voice, “I am not concerned about the Blood Rose. I am only concerned about who made the move and killed my wife and daughter back then.”
Shen Qianshu said, “Aventura has already passed away many years ago. Second Master, they are sowing discord. Now, they are being trapped here, and it is impossible for them to escape. You don’t have to believe their lies.”
Ye Ling kept remaining silent and did not say anything.
Mu Yuan said coldly, “What’s the point of saying so much? Take everyone away!”
Once he waved his hand, the special forces behind him got ready and were about to arrest them when Second Old Master Gu went berserk. His hatred had made him lose his cool. “Let me see who is able to bring anyone away from the Gu family’s manor!”
Just when Second Old Master Gu’s words fell, a large number of snipers and gunmen appeared on the roof. They swarmed and surrounded the place.
Both parties were triggered at any moment.
A chill ran down Mu Yuan’s spine. “Gu Chun, you are openly going against us. If you hurt anyone here, your identity will also be exposed. I advise you not to meet force with force!”
At this point, he roughly understood Gu Chun’s identity.
Only one person was able to have this ability.
The owner of Ghost City.
“The revenge for killing my wife and losing my daughter is absolutely irreconcilable. Today, the Black Rose has to give me an explanation about exactly who killed my daughter and caused my wife to lie on the bed for so many years. If you dare to lie, I don’t mind perishing together with you.”
“Dad!” Gu Yuanli shouted.
“You shut up!” Second Old Master Gu shouted. “I have handed over Ghost City to you and trusted you all these years. Everybody said that the eldest Master and Third Master were killed by you. I did not believe it entirely. Even if you have been swallowing my power, I also trusted you. How did you repay me?”
There was a tinge of misery in Gu Yuanli’s eyes.
But he hid it very deep inside him.
For an unknown reason, Shen Qianshu felt her heart aching.
Both parties were not giving in to each other.
Ye Ling’s gaze was extremely cold as he said, “My mother would not kill anyone.”
There was no evidence, and nobody knew what had happened back then. He did not want her to shoulder the crime. “Whoever wants the Blood Rose can take it. I only want the Black Rose to die.”
His plan was to have the Black Rose die.
“Hahaha, let me tell you all, I will not die!” The woman laughed loudly. There was a tinge of ruthlessness in her eyes. She pointed at Shen Qianshu. “Because of her, I will be safe and sound and will walk out of here.”
Shen Qianshu sneered. “You are dreaming!”
