Chapter 1883: Going to the Mysterious Alliance
Gu Zhiqi’s words made Ling Zhiyu feel troubled.
After all, when Xu Changqing was alive, he was considered one of the Immortal Medical Alliance’s young talents, admired by countless people.
Some openly and some secretly.
Ling Zhiyu didn’t care about this, so she never really looked into it.
She only knew of one person, Yang Siran.
It was only after Xu Changqing’s death, when Yang Siran came to her with trouble, that she found out.
Seeing Ling Zhiyu struggle to come up with any explanation, Gu Zhiqi didn’t press on but instead asked Ling Zhiyu, "When do you plan to leave the Poison Technique Trial Realm?"
Since no useful clues could be obtained from Ling Zhiyu, it might be better to seek out Meng Furong.
Ling Zhiyu said, "Leaving the Trial Realm to investigate Changqing’s cause of death?"
She could wait until next year for the trial.
But Changqing couldn’t wait.
Gu Zhiqi nodded to Ling Zhiyu.
Seeing this, Ling Zhiyu immediately said, "Anytime is fine."
Thus, the three left the Trial Realm.
Originally, Gu Zhiqi intended for Tang Yichen to remain in the Trial Realm to continue his trial, but Tang Yichen was curious about Xu Changqing’s death and insisted on joining in the investigation, so Gu Zhiqi took him along.
After leaving the Trial Realm, the three went straight to the Mystic Alliance.
Before going, Gu Zhiqi had already sent a message to Meng Yunhe.
So, by the time the three arrived at the Mystic Alliance, Meng Yunhe was already waiting there.
Upon seeing Gu Zhiqi, he immediately approached with enthusiasm, "Master Gu, what brings you here today..."
Before he finished speaking, he noticed Tang Yichen accompanying Gu Zhiqi, "Hey? Fourth, why are you here too, Chen?"
Seeing Tang Yichen, Meng Yunhe was clearly a bit surprised.
Tang Yichen, hearing this, pointed at Gu Zhiqi, "I came with Xiao Qi."
Only then did Meng Yunhe nod, looking as if he suddenly understood.
After greeting Ling Zhiyu, he turned to Gu Zhiqi and asked about the main matter, "Master Gu, is there something you need at the Mystic Alliance?"
Gu Zhiqi didn’t beat around the bush and directly stated his intention, "Meng Furong is your aunt, right? I want to see her."
Upon hearing this, Meng Yunhe was slightly taken aback, then looked at Gu Zhiqi and replied, "Is... did Aunt cause trouble for you again?"
Since Xu Changqing’s death, Meng Furong had been mentally unstable.
She’s caused quite a bit of trouble outside, and people often come looking for her, so instinctively, Meng Yunhe wondered if Meng Furong had offended Gu Zhiqi.
But Aunt had been staying at the Mystic Alliance recently, how could she have offended Master Gu?
Or was it an old grievance?
Thinking of this filled Meng Yunhe’s heart with unease.
Gu Zhiqi immediately shook his head, "No, I just have a few questions I want to ask her."
Meng Yunhe, upon hearing this, breathed a slight sigh of relief.
Good news that she hadn’t caused trouble for Master Gu, but... how did Master Gu know about Aunt?
Although puzzled, Meng Yunhe didn’t rush to ask but instead, with a troubled expression, said to Gu Zhiqi, "My aunt has been affected by backlash for three years, with her mind unclear, I fear you won’t get anything from her."
Upon hearing this, Gu Zhiqi pondered for two seconds before suddenly asking, "Has your aunt gone out recently?"
Meng Yunhe immediately shook his head, "No, aunt hasn’t left the Master’s Sect for two months."
Meng Furong’s unclear mind lasted longer each time.
In the past two months, not a single day was normal.
So, Meng Yunhe kept people watching her, not letting her go out.
Once Meng Yunhe finished speaking, Ling Zhiyu’s expression changed dramatically.
