Chapter 1112 - 580: The Truth

Seeing everyone in the room with faces full of anger, Lan Hua sneered.

"Turns out you’re all men with such narrow minds. I’ve always thought of you, helped you at every turn! This is how you repay me! If it weren’t for me at the inn, you would have directly killed my friend!"

After speaking, she glared fiercely at Gu Sheng.

"If they could do such a thing, it must have been under your orders, Gu Sheng, you really disgust me!"

Upon hearing these words, Hong Mei couldn’t stand it anymore. She stepped forward and slapped Lan Hua across the face.

With a loud slap, the entire space froze.

"Keep that mouth of yours that only spews nonsense shut!"

The aura emanating from Hong Mei instantly suppressed Lan Hua.

Just as she was about to speak, Hong Mei slapped her again.

"I thought you were a smart person, but it turns out you’re just the same! When your friend was targeting Gu Sheng everywhere, you acted like you didn’t see. Now something’s happened and you come blaming indiscriminately, do you even know, your friend nearly got all of us killed!"

After Hong Mei finished speaking, Lan Yao coldly snorted from the side.

"She barges in aggressively without even asking, does she care about our lives? If we died, probably it’d be just what she wants!"

"I think so too, her friend died and she could curse us out, how could our lives compare to hers?"

As soon as Bai Yu’s words fell, Lan Hua frowned and looked at all of them.

"What do you mean? Twisting the truth?"

In an instant, Gu Sheng’s face turned cold.

"They haven’t twisted the truth, every word they said is true."

Upon hearing Gu Sheng say this, a flash of doubt appeared in Lan Hua’s eyes.

"What do you mean exactly?"

"Stop pretending to be clueless! You couldn’t possibly be unaware that your girlfriend wanted to harm us! Otherwise, why do you think we killed her men?"

Lan Yao spoke again, but Lan Hua’s expression grew more confused.

Gu Sheng looked at her and said, "We agreed to go to the Qingcheng Sect together, but when Lan Yao went to find you, he was obstructed by your friend’s men. He tried twice, each time blocked outside and engaged in fights, and couldn’t even pass a message to you. We had no choice but to go alone."

"You went looking for me? How come I didn’t know? I thought you acted alone without me."

"We did look for you, but someone intentionally didn’t want you to see us."

After Gu Sheng finished speaking, Lan Yao directly took out a few shredded pieces of cloth.

"These are torn from their bodies during fights. You’re in the fabric business, you should recognize them, right?"

After taking the fabric and looking carefully, Lan Hua’s expression changed dramatically.

At this point, Gu Sheng said, "While we were going to Qingcheng Sect, your friend sent people to tail us the whole way. We didn’t notice at the time, but when I made a move on the Qingcheng Sect people, he appeared suddenly, using every method to draw their attention, wanting to use them to kill us. When I was seriously injured, it was Lan Yao and the others who angrily retaliated and killed that person, allowing us to escape. Now that we’ve been exposed, we’re preparing to leave."

After Gu Sheng finished speaking, Lan Yao directly swung open his robe.

"See this? These bloodstains are the result of fights. Your friend’s people spared no effort to kill us. If it weren’t for Gu Sheng risking his life to protect us, we’d be dead today! You just see one of your friend’s men dead and come to curse us, have you seen how miserable we are? Look at Gu Sheng’s arm, he fought through the pain of possibly losing it!"

Only then did Lan Hua see, Gu Sheng’s arm was hanging limp, and his clothes were already torn, the hem stained with blood!

"How could this be? That’s not what she told me... She said you killed her men, which is why I came..."

Upon hearing her pale explanation, Gu Sheng pinched his brow lightly.

"Lan Hua, she’s your friend, I won’t say much, but you should know, if she can lie in front of us, who knows what she says behind our backs. Anyway, this is the truth, you can choose to believe or not, we’ve been exposed and must leave now."

"Gu Sheng, you’re leaving now?"

"What else? Didn’t you see the Qingcheng Sect people are fully mobilized outside? If we don’t leave, are we supposed to wait here to die?"

"They’re mobilized because of you?"

"To be precise, it’s because of your friend’s people, otherwise we wouldn’t be exposed. We didn’t die, she must be quite upset, right?"

Recalling her friend’s tone and expression at the time, Lan Hua’s face turned pale.

"Gu Sheng, I’ll go with you guys! I have some connections here and can protect you!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Sheng waived his hand dismissively.

"No need, the people around you want us dead, and you trust her unconditionally, having you with us will only worsen things. You don’t have to worry about us, goodbye."

Having said that, Gu Sheng turned and left.

Lan Yao and the others quickly followed, not giving Lan Hua a second glance before leaving.

Seeing them like this, Lan Hua’s tears fell instantly.

"Gu Sheng, I know the truth now, I shouldn’t have blamed you without asking, please give me another chance, I really want to help you!"

Hearing her speak so loudly, Gu Sheng furrowed his brows tightly.

"Lan Hua, if you don’t want us to die quickly, you’d better stop talking."

Leaving these words behind, Gu Sheng didn’t stop and left straight away.
