“You sure have suffered. I never expected those people to imprison you in Yuzhou City.” Mu Xiaoyun sighed softly.

“As the lover of Liu Qingshan, how could you not know?” Jiang San Jia sneered.

Everyone in the martial world knew that Mu Xiaoyun and Liu Qingshan were a married couple, while the Mu Family and Cao Gang were in an alliance. They would share both glory and loss.

Cao Gang imprisoned him in the Yuzhou City, so how could Cao Gang’s Gang Leader’s wife not know?

“I really didn’t know.”

Mu Xiaoyun lowered her head and said, “You seem to have a lot of misunderstandings towards me. Actually, I stopped interfering with Cao Gang’s matters a few years ago. I don’t know anything about Cao Gang’s affairs in the past decade or so, and it has nothing to do with me.”

Jiang Sanjia did not believe the words of this poisonous beauty in front of him at all. He said, “You ‘invited’ me here to explain this matter clearly to me. If that’s the case, then I understand.”

“If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave first.”

Jiang Sanjia stood up and prepared to leave.

“Sanjia, why are you in such a hurry to leave?”

Mu Xiaoyun raised her eyebrows. “I haven’t finished speaking. Don’t tell me that I, Mu Xiaoyun, am going overboard by asking you over for tea?”

Jiang Sanjia paused. Due to their relationship back then, he eventually sat down.

Mu Xiaoyun smiled and said, “Sanjia, you are indeed a loyal person, but my younger sister…”

Jiang Sanjia frowned. “Why are you looking for me this time? Just say it. Don’t beat around the bush.”

Mu Xiaoyun’s lips curved into a smile. “I want you to help me find someone with the Phantom Valley Heavenly Secret.”

“Who?

“Liu Qingshan.”

…

The pleasure boat fell into silence.

Jiang Sanjia’s eyes flashed with suspicion, but he did not say anything.

Who was Liu Qingshan?

That was the current leader of Cao Gang!

Mu Xiaoyun was his wife, why would he need to look for her himself?

“It’s Liu Qingshan.”

Mu Xiaoyun narrowed her eyes and said word by word, “Actually, Cao Gang’s current leader is not Liu Qingshan.”

“What do you mean?” Jiang Sanjia’s expression turned grim.

If the leader of Cao Gang was not Liu Qingshan, then who was he?

Mu Xiaoyun said faintly, “I don’t know who he is, but I’m sure that the current Liu Qingshan is not the original Liu Qingshan. I have slept with a man for decades. How can I not know if he is real or fake?”

“A few years ago, I vaguely sensed something strange. His every move, his manner of speaking, and his style of doing things, although very similar, were not.”

A woman’s familiarity with her man was like her left hand and right hand.

Jiang Sanjia asked seriously, “You mean Liu Qingshan has already been replaced by another person?”

“That’s probably what happened.” Mu Xiaoyun nodded.

“How is that possible?”

Jiang Sanjia shook his head in disbelief.

One had to know that Cao Gang’s prestige had been vast for more than a decade, and it faintly showed signs of being the number one gang in the world. Yet, their gang leader had actually been replaced by someone else. How many tricks did this require? And what kind of person and power was behind this?

It was simply unimaginable!

“I think you’re crazy, really crazy.” Jiang Sanjia stood up and said.

“I have proof.”

Mu Xiaoyun took out an ancient-looking token from her waist. “Others might not know about this token, but you, Jiang Sanjia, should know about it.”

“I know.” Jiang Sanjia glanced at the title plate, but his heart was moved.

“You should know who Liu Qing Shan is, but when he touched this token, there was no reaction.”

“You tested it yourself?”

“That’s right.”

Jiang Sanjia was shocked after hearing this. If Mu Xiaoyun was telling the truth, then she was too terrifying!

Cao Gang’s gang leader was actually a fake?!

Yet now, this Liu Qingshan who could do anything was actually a fake!?

Jiang Sanjia hesitated for a moment before saying, “Even if what you said is true, Liu Qingshan might have already been poisoned by someone else.”

Mu Xiaoyun said firmly, “No. If they didn’t find that item, Liu Qingshan wouldn’t have died.”

“You have that thing?”

“No, but I know where it is.”

Jiang Sanjia knew very well what the item Mu Xiaoyun was talking about was. He seemed to have let his guard down a little. “I have yet to recover from my severe injuries and my vitality is thin. If I calculate this, I will definitely die.”

Mu Xiaoyun heaved a sigh of relief when she heard that. “I can wait for you to recover from your injuries. I can even take care of you for the time being. After all, it’s not safe for you to be alone now.”

Jiang Sanjia did not say anything else. At this moment, he had yet to recover from his heavy injuries, so it would be a good thing if he could obtain Mu Xiaoyun’s protection. Moreover, Cao Gang could be considered to have a blood feud with him. If it was really as Mu Xiaoyun said, finding the real Liu Qingshan was the same as helping himself.

“Brother Sanjia, I think this is a good opportunity.” At this moment, a chuckle came from outside the deck.

Jiang Sanjia shouted in a low voice, “Who! Show yourself!”

“There’s someone!?”

Mu Xiaoyun’s eyes narrowed into slits, but her palm reached under her skirt.

Who was it?!

He was actually able to get on the ship without anyone noticing.

“Sanjia, long time no see. How have you been?”

After changing his clothes, An Jing slowly walked out.

“It’s you!”

“It’s you!”

When the two of them caught sight of who it was, their hearts skipped a beat as they exchanged glances with one another.

“Both of you know each other?” Mu Xiaoyun asked curiously.

“It was Brother Zhou who saved me from the dungeon,” said Jiang Sanjia as he took a deep breath.

“What!?” Mu Xiaoyun looked at the person in front of her, her heart trembling.

The news of him killing Cao Anmin and Liu Haoping while destroying the dungeon had spread throughout the entire martial world. Everyone was guessing that he was a peerless swordsman. She did not expect him to be here.

An Jing looked at the two of them. According to the instructions on the Earth Book, the azure opportunity was actually with this woman.

This woman was Liu Qingshan’s wife. Was there really an opportunity on her?

An Jing was puzzled.

“When did you arrive?” Jiang Sanjia asked seriously.

“From that Liu Qingshan couple.” An Jing smiled faintly.

“In that case, Brother Zhou should have heard of it.” Mu Xiaoyun said with a smile.

The foe of an enemy was a friend. The strength of this swordsman was extraordinary. If he could rope him in, he would definitely be a great help.

“I’ve heard everything that I shouldn’t have,” An Jing admitted honestly.

“Then you should know that Liu Qingshan is a fake now?”

“If what you say is true.”

“If I can find my husband, the true leader of Cao Gang, I wonder if Brother Zhou is willing to lend a hand. This will be a great favor to us.”

Mu Xiaoyun looked at An Jing. “Brother Zhou, you’ve already offended the current leader of Cao Gang, and we have a common enemy.”

“Don’t lie to me. Cao Gang’s main target isn’t me, right?” An Jing interrupted Mu Xiaoyun. “Knowing that Liu Qingshan is a fake, you are their main target. Their goal is whatever is in Liu Qingshan’s hands.”

He had heard everything.

If what Mu Xiaoyun said was true, then Liu Qingshan was a fake. Right now, the gang leader wanted the mysterious item in Liu Qingshan’s hands, so he did not kill him.

As for Mu Xiaoyun’s goal, it was very simple. She wanted to rescue Liu Qingshan and even expose the fake Liu Qingshan to regain control of Cao Gang.

Mu Xiaoyun paused for a moment before saying, “What you said isn’t wrong, but do you know that Liu Haoping is the adopted son of that person? He is an existence that Liu Qingshan treats as his own. If you kill him, he will definitely take revenge.”

Although Liu Haoping was only the head of Cao Gang, his status was extraordinary.

An Jing sneered. “Who knows my identity? If I want to hide, can Cao Gang find me?”

“Could it be that Brother Zhou wishes to hide for the rest of your life?” Mu Xiaoyun said, hitting the nail on the head.

The two of them were testing each other and their words were sharp.

“You don’t have to worry about me anymore. Just tell me what benefits you can give me. I don’t mind helping you.” An Jing waved his hand and said, “The premise is that my services are very expensive. You should know that.”

In any case, he had a grudge with Cao Gang.

“How expensive?”

Mu Xiaoyun’s body slowly leaned over, gently exhaling warm air.

He felt it!

It was a cold sensation. He looked down and saw that it was a sword.

An Jing said expressionlessly, “Give me something that satisfies me.”

Stupid man!

Mu Xiaoyun secretly suffered a loss, but on the surface, she chuckled. “Alright, when I find my husband, I will definitely give you something that will satisfy you.”

“Alright, I’ll wait for your news.”

“If there are red lanterns hanging on this pleasure boat, Brother Zhou can come and have a chat.”

“I’ll be here when I see the red lanterns.”

An Jing nodded, then looked at Jiang Sanjia. “Right, I almost forgot the purpose of this trip. Sanjia, you’re really dishonest. The murderous aura under the river is very strong. I almost didn’t even make it.”

With that, An Jing walked out of the deck.

Jiang Sanjia was shocked when he heard An Jing’s words. Did he come here specially to look for him? That meant that he knew where he was at all times and from his tone, he knew that he had taken the Bodhi Bead.

“Sanjia, is that person trustworthy?” After An Jing left, Mu Xiaoyun asked in a low voice.

“This person is cunning and insatiable. His strength is profound and unfathomable,” said Jiang Sanjia faintly.

“Unpredictable.”

Mu Xiaoyun frowned slightly..
