In order to get Chen Haiping's letter as soon as possible, Gu Hao could only tell lies.

Moreover, as Su Ye said, thieves in empty houses also have a way of robbing the rich and giving to the poor.

And what about the killer?

Collecting money to do things, your hands are full of blood, and you will not end well!

If we want to be more serious, how can Gu Hao, who is the killer of Yanmen, have the right to speak against Su Ye?

Killers are no more noble than thieves.

"Last question..."

After swiping the letter, the letter reappeared in the girl's hand. Even Gu Hao, a top-notch person, couldn't figure it out.

I have to say that the traditional craftsmanship of Kongkongmen does have its own special features.

Su Ye blushed and asked shyly: "Brother Xiaohan, are you married now?"

"..."

Gu Hao was stunned. In Su Han's heart, Su Ye should be his sister.

But the girl didn't seem to think so. She had already had a secret love for her, and she still hasn't forgotten it after so many years.

To put it simply: I treat you as my sister, but you want to sleep with me?

Gu Hao's silence made Su Ye feel nervous unconsciously, could it be?

"No." Gu Hao answered truthfully, first getting the clues before talking.

As for what Su Ye thinks, it doesn't actually matter, because as long as Chen Haiping's letter is obtained, they will never meet again.

Killers cannot have feelings, let alone love.

When Su Ye finally heard the answer he wanted, he immediately relaxed and handed the envelope and handkerchief to Gu Hao with a smile.

Gu Hao opened the door and said, "Let's go."

"I want to go too."

Su Ye doesn't intend to leave, though. It's such a rare encounter that she won't let go easily.

No matter what Gu Hao planned to do next, she decided to follow it to the end, just like when she was a child.

Gu Hao instantly understood the stubbornness in the girl's eyes and knew that no matter what he said, it would be useless, so he didn't intend to waste his words.

He took advantage of the girl's unpreparedness, used his Qinggong skills, and rushed out of the door as fast as lightning.

If the girl doesn’t leave, it’s not enough for him to leave on his own.

"Damn it!"

Su Ye quickly chased him out of the inn, but Gu Hao's back had disappeared into the sea of ​​people. The girl had no choice but to stamp her feet alone in anger.

"Humph, brother Xiaohan, don't think you can get rid of me like this."

Soon, Su Ye identified a direction and followed it.

"Huhu... Guest... Officer, your... account is still... unsettled..."

When the innkeeper ran out panting and shaking his body fat, not to mention Gu Hao, even Su Ye disappeared.

……

A few days later, Gu Hao appeared in Thunder City.

Le Tiecheng is located in the northern area of ​​Mu Kingdom and is named after the Le Tiecheng Mountains outside the city.

Therefore, the iron smelting industry here is very prosperous. Raw ore is mined in the Leitie Mountains and sent directly to the city for refining and purification. The finished product is then transported to the required place.

Thunder iron is one of the main materials for the thunder bomb, and the thunder fire gate is located on a hilltop not far outside the city.

Many iron ore-related industries in Lei Tiecheng are run by disciples of Lei Huo Sect.

When Gu Hao came to Lei Tiecheng this time, he naturally got important clues from Chen Haiping's letters, pointing directly to Shen Tupeng, an elder in the Lei Huo Sect.

Shen Tupeng holds an important position in the Leihuo Sect, and was chosen as the next leader of the Leihuo Sect. He is a staunch leader and a die-hard confidant of Changsun Liang.

The current leader of Leihuo Sect, Ding, has four direct disciples.

The eldest disciple is Sun Liang, the second disciple is Fan Lei, the third disciple is Yan Dong, and the youngest disciple is Han Ziming.

Chang Sunliang, Fan Lei, and Yan Dong were all apprentices accepted by Master Ding in his early years. They are similar in age, all in their fifties.

For those who practice martial arts, this is the prime of life. Once they inherit the leadership, if nothing unexpected happens, the Leihuo Sect will not change its leadership for at least thirty years.

Because Han Ziming was a disciple that Master Ding only accepted in his later years, he is the youngest among the four. He is just over thirty this year.

In terms of qualifications in the sect, Han Ziming obviously cannot catch up with the three senior brothers, but the reason why he was accepted as a closed disciple by Head Ding is naturally unique.

After Han Ziming joined the Thunder Fire Sect, he adjusted the sect's secret recipe for refining Tianlei Bang several times, and made great progress each time, thus greatly enhancing the power of Tianlei Bang.

In modern times, Han Ziming is a reliable high-tech R&D talent, unlike some old guys who are just squatting in the toilet and just copying the achievements of their predecessors without any ambition.

Therefore, Han Ziming was deeply loved by Master Ding and was accepted as a closed disciple.

Headmaster Ding has been in office for ten years. He does not say how much he has contributed to the Leihuo Sect, but his style is quite steady.

Under his leadership, the Thunder Fire Sect has become stronger step by step. He should be very clear about what the Thunder Fire Sect needs to do if it wants to take a further step in the future.

If it wasn't intentional, how could he have accepted another closed disciple in his later years?

Therefore, if Master Ruo Ding really has an internal candidate in mind, according to Yanmen’s investigation, the most likely candidate is Han Ziming.

As for the second disciple Fan Lei and the third disciple Yan Dong, they have never had any intention of competing for the position of master, and even publicly stated that they will abide by the master's decision, no matter who becomes the master in the end.

However, a sect that has been passed down for a long time must have its own traditions.

A considerable number of people in the sect still feel that history should be followed and seniority should be arranged in an orderly manner, and senior brother Sun Liang is the most suitable person to be the leader.

To put it bluntly, a group of elders and supreme elders from Leihuo Sect felt that Han Ziming was still young, had no qualifications, and could not convince the public.

Changsun Liang, as the senior brother of Leihuo Clan, has worked hard in the sect for almost a decade, so he is naturally highly respected and has a large number of staunch loyalists.

A sect does not have the final say of one person. Even if that person is the leader, he must take into account the opinions of everyone in the sect. Otherwise, a mistake may cause civil strife in the sect.

It can be seen that the next leader of the Leihuo Sect is most likely to choose between Changsun Liang and Han Ziming.

Chen Haiping's clues lead to Leihuo Sect elder Shen Tupeng, and as Changsun Liang's most trusted person, would Shen Tupeng not know anything about what Shen Tupeng was doing privately?

Gu Hao doesn't know, he can only investigate Shen Tupeng first.

Because Shen Tupeng holds an important position in Lei Tiecheng, it is easy for him to take action. As for the other four direct disciples, they are all within the mountain gate now, so it is difficult for him to take action.

Most of the masters of Leihuo Sect are first-rate in martial arts, but after all, they are a sect that has been passed down for a long time, and they must have their own heritage.

There are several top-notch Supreme Elders hidden within the sect. It’s not surprising at all. Gu Hao doesn’t dare to rush to the Leihuo Sect to see them off.

Start the investigation from Shen Tupeng. If we find other clues against Changsun Liang, we can then find a way to sneak into Leihuomen.

……

In the dead of night, Shentu Mansion.

Most of the servants in the house have fallen asleep, only a few maids standing vigil outside the master's room.

Gu Hao sneaked in silently and found that in the dark mansion, the study was still lit.

Through the paper window, you can see a figure.
Chapter completed!
