Are you stupid? I am the villain behind the scenes

That night.

The entire Xuan Palace was immersed in silence.

Two dark shadows sneaked into the Xuan Palace like ghosts.

Relying on the information they had obtained in advance, the two black shadows quickly found Qi Ce's location.

They crouched with their eyes fixed on the door, preparing to sneak in and kill Qi Ce.

However, at this moment, two crisp gunshots suddenly rang out in the darkness, and the gunshots sounded particularly harsh in the silent night.

As the gunshots rang out, the two black shadows fell to the ground without even having time to make a sound.

Then, footsteps approached.

"What to do with the body?" someone asked.

Another person's voice came coldly: "Throw it to Yuanshan."

The dead should stay where the dead are.

……

Shen Kun waited for a whole day, but the two people sent to assassinate Qi Ce never returned.

He already had a premonition in his heart that he would probably fail.

However, he was not worried that this move would expose the Li family.

He had just recruited those two people, so they were not considered members of the Li family, and the outside world did not know their relationship with the Li family.

Therefore, even if someone investigates, they will never be able to find the Li family.

"I actually failed. This Master Xuan is not a simple person." Shen Kun frowned and muttered to himself thoughtfully.

The two men he sent were masters of the seventh level of martial arts. In his opinion, the strength of these two people was not weak.

Moreover, as far as he knew, there were no practitioners in Xuan Palace who were beyond the seventh level of Wu. Could it be that someone was helping Lord Xuan?

The establishment of Xuanzhou Lord was originally a mutual restriction among the aristocratic families. He had a name but no power. In order to prevent Xuanzhou Lord from developing beyond any aristocratic family, the aristocratic families would strictly forbid Xuanzhou Lord to expand his power privately.

Shen Kun thought it was necessary to inform Li Qingchi about this matter.

When Li Qingchi heard Shen Kun say that the assassination attempt on Qi Ce had failed, his brows furrowed so tightly that they could kill a fly.

"This Fu Weizhen is more capable than his father."

A hint of danger flashed in Li Qingchi's eyes. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Qi Ce, don't move yet. They have already found Yuanshan. They will definitely be more cautious next time. Be careful not to let them catch us."

Now his mind was completely focused on the experiment and he had no time to investigate Fu Weizheng's affairs in detail.

Even if Fu Weizheng really concealed something, it didn’t matter. When he possessed power beyond the ninth level of Wu, all the disobedient people would be eliminated, including Lord Xuanzhou, and there would be no need for them to exist.

He will be the overlord of the entire Xuanzhou and even the entire world!

Shen Kun nodded: "I understand."

Li Qingchi added: "Also, send someone to keep an eye on the Song family to see if there are any suspicious people coming in and out of the Song family. I suspect someone is leaking information to Song Guwei."

Shen Kun replied: "Yes."

"What has Mr. Bai been doing recently?" Li Qingchi asked again.

Shen Kun replied: "It's still the same as before, no quarrel or fuss, and no intention of giving in."

Li Qingchi: "Hurry up and send her to the laboratory."

Shen Kun: “Yes.”

……

Hua Xi searched for Lu Lun in Li's house for a long time but couldn't find him. She planned to "escape" from prison at night and look for him outside.

However, an unexpected change forced her to cancel her plan.

The meal delivered in the evening was mixed with sleeping pills.

This meant that Li Qingchi was going to take action against her. In this case, she could not leave.

After dinner, Hua Xi pretended to sleep on the bed.

Her eyes were closed and her breathing was steady, as if she were actually asleep.

However, after several hours, Hua Xi still did not see any movement.

She was somewhat confused and didn't know what Li Qingchi was planning.

It was not until two or three o'clock in the morning, when everything was quiet, that Hua Xi heard the sound of the prison door being opened.

Then, a pungent smell of smoke entered her nostrils.
