Chapter 2490: Chapter 2491: Wanting a Day for a Night Swap
“It’s not exactly an illness.”
She glanced at Sui Zimo with her lips pursed.
“Zimo, is that person the one Lu Tianfeng sent to take the lead?” Lin Baizhong looked at his son-in-law and asked.
“Does Lu Tianfeng not have anyone under him? Why would he send such a fool to the Hongye Pavilion?”
Lu Tianlan continued Lin Baizhong’s words. You couldn’t blame him for saying so; it was just that the woman had failed before even starting. No matter how you looked at it, it just didn’t seem like someone Lu Tianfeng would send.
“If he really sent someone smart to the Hongye Pavilion, you’d be the one crying.” Sui Zimo said, casting a faint glance at him.
Lu Tianlan: “…”
This brat really has the same temperament as Lin Baizhong!
Lin Baizhong had always been that sincere, regardless of whether he was talking to the lord of the city; he would plug him with those words that could choke anyone!
However, since the kid at least addressed him with a respectful title, he decided to let it slide with his son.
“How many of Lu Tianfeng’s people do you think are still in the Hongye Pavilion?” He asked.
“It’s hard to say exactly, but there’s still a dozen or two.” Lin Caisang answered on behalf of her husband to Lu Tianlan’s question.
“A dozen or two?”
Hearing this number, Lu Tianlan almost exclaimed.
These were people who were let in after being screened by his relative, yet there were still so many of Lu Tianfeng’s people.
Lu Tianfeng’s net sure is cast wide; could he have people everywhere on the Illusion Continent?
“Baizhong, did you really drive out many of Lu Tianfeng’s people from the list?”
He asked Lin Baizhong with a twitch of his mouth.
“What do you think?”
Lin Baizhong turned sideways, giving Lu Tianlan a faint glance, resembling Sui Zimo quite a bit.
“Lu Tianfeng probably replaced them with his people in the Hongye Pavilion a long time ago.”
He then looked at his daughter and son-in-law.
“A long time ago?”
Lu Tianlan was taken aback but quickly understood.
“Zimo, the people you’re talking about aren’t the alchemists and alchemists but the ones who were there in the Hongye Pavilion itself?”
He asked.
There were actually so many people in his Hongye Pavilion that Lu Tianfeng had managed to infiltrate?
Sure enough, Lu Tianfeng was truly omnipotent.
It was also because he had trusted Lu Tianfeng too much before, decentralizing too much power, giving Lu Tianfeng an opportunity to exploit.
“I will immediately find an excuse to drive those people out!”
Driving them all out should be possible, right? But before Sui Zimo and the others could disagree with him, he had already started shaking his head.
“No, I can’t do that. If I do, won’t Lu Tianfeng know we’re watching him? We have to think of another method.”
“Lord, you don’t need to think of a way. Zimo has already figured out a method,” Lin Caisang said.
They had already witnessed a dog-eat-dog show today; staying in the Hongye Pavilion was boring, so watching a few more wouldn’t hurt.
“You’ve thought of a method?”
Lu Tianlan raised an eyebrow, looking at Sui Zimo.
He really was his son, quick-witted enough to come up with a solution so fast.
“It’s good that you’ve thought of a method, but Baizhong, Zimo, why do you think Lu Tianfeng placed so many people who couldn’t enter the Haikuo Forest in the Hongye Pavilion?
Is he planning to do a swap, replacing the alchemists and potions makers in the pavilion before entering the Haikuo Forest?”
