Chapter 321
321 Subduing the Night Lotus 4
Feng Qingtian had said the same thing before, claiming that the Night Lotus had almost killed her.
But the Night Lotus had weakened for some reason, and Gu Bailu was lucky to survive.
So, the Night Lotus went easy on her?
Feng Qingtian mentioned that she gave him the impression of his former lover, and the Night Lotus was saying a similar thing. Was she really related to that woman?
But she couldn’t remember a thing.
“Then tell me who Nan Ningxin is helping, and who has been helping Nan Ningxin.”
If the contract couldn’t be rescinded, Gu Bailu could turn the Night Lotus into a spy for her.
“I don’t know. I only know that she and Shao Di often meet. She contacts other people through letters, but I’m illiterate.”
“…”
What could Gu Bailu say?
The Night Lotus, which was a nightmare to many people, couldn’t read.
Hm, fine. While the Night Lotus could talk, it was still an object in the end, and not human.
“Has she never gotten in touch with suspicious-looking men or asked you to do things for her?”
“Of course, she often asks for my help, but I don’t like her and I’ve been sleeping and cultivating, so I don’t know what she does.”
“You’re useless!” Gu Bailu snorted.
The Night Lotus didn’t know anything about Nan Ningxin’s movements despite the fact that they were together all the time.
“How can you protect your master like this? You need to keep an eye on Nan Ningxin, because she’ll definitely hurt your master again.”
“What should I do?” The Night Lotus was confused.
“Don’t cultivate, don’t sleep, and keep an eye on her day and night to see who she’s meeting and talking to. Then, report to me the next time we meet.”
The Night Lotus was reluctant. “You’re not my master. Why should I listen to you?”
“Because I’m stronger than you and I can burn you again. Do you want to try it?”
“I don’t want to be burnt. I’m scared.” The Night Lotus’s voice shook, as if it was scared of fire.
“Then be a good boy. If you do a good job, I’ll help you find your master.”
“Really? You can help me find my master?”
“Of course. Right, do you know how Nan Ningxin set up Murong Lanyi?”
Ghost Murong had been inside the Soul Attractor for a long time. It was time to send her off.
After sending her off, Gu Bailu would probably level up from this good deed.
The Night Lotus said, “I know Murong Lanyi. She was very close to Nan Ningxin.”
“Then do you know how she died?”
“I don’t know, but I know that Nan Ningxin took her out and she never returned.”
“Are you sure that Nan Ningxin took her out?”
“Yes. I was awake and absorbing moonlight for my cultivation when Nan Ningxin took her out, claiming that they would be going to the Woods of God’s Tears to train together.”
“Then what?”
“Then, Nan Ningxin left first, telling her that she was sleepy. I don’t know what happened next.”
“Can you testify?”
“Testify… how?”
“Tell Lady Murong what you know.” Gu Bailu knew that Nan Ningxin would be done for once Lady Murong learned what she had done.
Lady Murong didn’t look like an unreasonable person.
“Outsiders can’t see me.”
“Then why are you talking to me? Outsiders can see you only when you’re about to be burnt?” asked Gu Bailu coldly
