In the following days, both Qing Ning's side and Fu Jingheng's camp made remarkable progress!

Qing Ning was like a fish in water in Hu's house. Through clever maneuvers and witty responses, she successfully obtained a lot of valuable intelligence information. She passed these key clues to Fu Jingheng in a timely manner, allowing the latter's investigation to gradually deepen and proceed in an orderly manner.

At the same time, Fu Jingheng, with his outstanding wisdom and keen insight, not only successfully found the whereabouts of Xu Shusheng, but also followed the clues to find the mysterious place that was deliberately hidden by a group of officials.

It turns out that this place is a treasure trove of rich mineral resources! According to professional appraisal, if the ore here is carefully smelted and refined, golden gold can be extracted from it! However, the imperial court once issued a strict order: any discovery of precious minerals such as gold, silver, copper or iron must be reported to the state immediately and must not be concealed or mined privately.

Faced with this amazing discovery and the complex interests involved behind it, Fu Jingheng fell into deep thought...

"It looks like this is the mine they want to hide. So what Beicheng wants to hide must also be a mine, but I don't know what kind of mine it is!"

The older Fu Jingheng nodded. He was not involved in the Jiangnan case back then and didn’t know much about it. Everything hidden in it was erased by that cold-blooded man!

Those who knew the secret were also killed one after another. The methods were so cruel that it made people horrified.

The older Fu Jingheng couldn't help but think of that man, his eyes were cold and ruthless, as if everything was under his control.

At this moment, he secretly swore in his heart that he must uncover this secret and not let the secret here continue to be buried!

Qing Ning didn't know what they were thinking, but she was indeed facing some crisis at the moment!

At night, everything was silent, and the moonlight sprinkled on the earth like water. Qing Ning carefully shuttled through the darkness and approached where Hu Haotian was. Her mission was to find out the news about Hu Haotian and his people, but just as she was about to leave, she suddenly saw the figure of a woman.

The woman was wearing a gorgeous and enchanting dress, with a graceful figure. However, it was not only her appearance that caught Qing Ning's attention, but also the sharp dagger on her waist. Qing Ning felt a little alert, and she decided not to leave in a hurry, but to stay and observe the woman's actions.

Qing Ning quietly hid in the dark, using her invisibility ability to ensure that no one would find her. She stared at the woman, who walked into the room lightly with a charming smile on her face.

Qing Ning couldn't help but become curious. Who is this woman? What is her purpose here? A series of questions came to her mind. Qing Ning decided to continue observing and see what kind of changes this mysterious woman would bring. She held her breath and stared at the room intently, looking forward to what would happen next.

The woman gently opened the door and walked into the study elegantly. The men who were originally talking stopped talking instantly and their eyes were focused on her.

One of the men couldn't wait to come forward, quickly put his arms around the woman's slender waist, and said with a smile on his face: "Yingying, you are finally here! Why are you so late? We men have been looking forward to seeing you, where are the others?"

The woman chuckled softly and moved lightly into the man's arms. She said coquettishly, "Lord Wu only cares about others and doesn't care about Yingying's feelings at all. As soon as they meet, he asks about the whereabouts of other sisters. Yingying must be sulking!" After that, she pouted her cherry lips slightly and pretended to turn her back to the man.

Seeing this, the man immediately apologized and begged for mercy: "How could this be possible? Yingying is a unique existence in my heart, and I miss you all the time! But there are many powerful people here, and it is probably difficult for Yingying to serve them all by herself, right?"

As soon as she finished speaking, a shy blush appeared on the girl's cheeks, and she shyly buried her face in the man's broad arms, like a docile kitten.

The others also burst into laughter. Even Hu Haotian, who was usually gentle and elegant in front of Qing Ning, looked at the woman with a playful and provocative look. Qing Ning cursed in her heart: "They are really powerful guys. None of them can keep to their duties!"

At this moment, a man with a greasy, disgusting voice spoke up: "I heard that Lord Hu has a beautiful and stunning lady hidden in his home. Why don't we let her out to see the world and broaden our horizons!"

As soon as these words came out, Hu Haotian's face suddenly showed anger, his eyes widened, and a chill emanated from his body. Because deep in his heart, Qing Ning was like a lotus flower that emerged from the mud without being stained, pure and flawless, sacred and inviolable. He would never allow anyone to blaspheme or offend her in the slightest!

"Lord Feng, please take back what you just said, otherwise I can't guarantee what I will do next!" Hu Haotian warned in a cold tone. The threat implied in his voice made everyone present know how much he cherished that woman, so no one mentioned the topic again.

Everyone had just changed the topic and were in a relaxed and happy atmosphere when suddenly, a piercing scream resounded throughout the room! The man who was holding the woman suddenly fell to the ground with blood all over his body. The woman, on the other hand, stood there holding an extremely sharp dagger with a cold and resolute look in her eyes.

Then, the door was slammed open, and a group of murderous assassins rushed in like a tide! These assassins were all agile and skilled in martial arts, and their goal was very clear - they rushed directly to those bigwigs who held great power and high positions!

However, how could these people who could reach such a high position be ordinary people? They were only shocked for the first moment, and then quickly came to their senses. They just waved their arms slightly, and many guards hidden in the dark jumped out like ghosts and started a fierce fight with the assassin.

The number of people on both sides was obviously different, the number of guards far exceeded the number of assassins. However, the assassins' attack method was extremely fierce, as if they were ready to die, which made the guards feel timid.

At first, the large number of guards were able to withstand the assassins' fearless attacks with their numerical advantage, but as time went on, the guards began to retreat continuously.

The guards fell in a pool of blood one after another, and the adults who had been calm before now showed signs of panic.

\"Who are you? Why did you want to assassinate us? As long as you are willing to let us live, we will definitely give you countless gold and silver as a reward afterwards! \"

However, the assassins did not respond to the conditions proposed by the adults. They received only one order - to kill them all.

Hu Haotian stared at the assassins with cold eyes. Since he set foot in Jiangnan, he had encountered many assassinations, so he was naturally prepared for such situations.

At this moment, he noticed several unusual figures appearing behind him. These people were wearing masks and were extremely ruthless. Their fighting style was more brutal than those of the previous assassins, just like specially trained assassins.

His face showed a thoughtful look, and his eyes suddenly became deep, as if he remembered an important task that someone had once given him, and the solemn promise that the other party had made.

That person once told him that he would ensure that he would be safe and sound throughout his life and that no one could hurt him. At this moment, he suddenly realized that the other person had already arranged a loyal Deadpool by his side! However, he actually had a premonition of this, didn't he?

At this moment, a fierce battle broke out. The assassins were killed in an instant, and the air was filled with blood. The woman saw that the situation was not good, so she immediately called her companions and prepared to quickly escape from this dangerous place.

After they successfully escaped, the mysterious deadpools also left in a certain direction like ghosts. Qing Ning looked at Hu Haotian sharply, and without hesitation, she followed the direction where the deadpools disappeared.

Whether it was these arrogant adults or the aggressive assassin just now, she didn't really take them to heart. However, these weird and mysterious deadpools were a huge mystery, and they were a potential threat and hidden danger to Fu Jingheng and others. Their true intentions and identities were still unclear, which made her worried.

She knew very well that if she couldn't figure out the origins and purpose of these deadpools, Fu Jingheng and his men might be in a passive or even dangerous situation. Therefore, she decided to chase them in person and uncover the mystery. She followed the footsteps of these deadpools carefully, keeping a certain distance to avoid being discovered.

The deadpools didn't seem to notice that there was a ghost-like invisible person following them. They came to a deserted and dilapidated courtyard, and without any hesitation, they fell to the ground, motionless, like lifeless corpses.

She observed all this quietly, her heart full of doubts and vigilance, but she did not act rashly.
