My Father Is Definitely Possessed

Chapter 564 - 263: I Know Su Xianci

"Hey, are you also from the Southern Wilderness, sir?" This answer surprised Huang Li somewhat. Previously, after he lost at the casino, Hai Dongsheng had called him over.

Hai Dongsheng lent Huang Li some money to try his luck again, but Huang Li clearly no longer had his previous luck. He lost repeatedly and eventually owed Hai Dongsheng a lot of money, leaving him with no choice but to be sent by Hai Dongsheng to act as an undercover agent beside Saint Heng.

Trying every means to uncover Saint Heng’s affairs.

"Is there anything so surprising about me being from the Southern Wilderness?" Saint Heng smiled and looked at Huang Li.

"Not really, I just didn’t expect you to be from the same place as me." Huang Li chuckled and said, "My family used to be somewhat famous in the Southern Wilderness, but unfortunately, we were plotted against by enemies, and the entire family suffered a disastrous fate. Fortunately, I wasn’t home at the time."

"But even then, I was hunted down. Left with no choice, I spent all my money to find someone to bring me to Cloud Wasteland, avoiding the enemies’ pursuit, which brought me here to Cloud Wasteland." Huang Li recounted his background to Saint Heng.

Then he naturally added, "I come from the Wuhua State in the Southern Wilderness. I wonder where you lived, sir."

"Cyan Profound State, I was working for the Su family in the Southern Wilderness."

Saint Heng tossed a log onto the fire and calmly stated.

"The Su family in the Southern Wilderness?"

This indeed surprised Huang Li. Looking across the entire Southern Wilderness, who doesn’t know of the Su family, a dominator-level presence.

The family’s foundation is extremely rich.

Moreover, there are two Great Martial Sect patriarchs overseeing the family.

Within the family, there are numerous Painting Treasures, making people covet, but what’s more important is that the Su family also nurtures many powerful painting masters, including three Painting Saint-level experts.

Saint Heng actually hails from the Su family?

Huang Li felt he had picked up some clues.

"I am quite surprised, sir, that you actually come from the Su family." Huang Li quickly said.

Saint Heng lowered his head and smiled, then said, "I didn’t stay in the Su family for long. I used to be a Nursing Home there. At that time, I was quite arrogant. Later, I met a young man once and thought he was a new Nursing Home. I boasted shamelessly that I would watch over him in the future. He didn’t say anything at the time, but later I learned he was Su Xianci from the Su family..."

"Uh..."

Being from the Southern Wilderness, Huang Li naturally knew who Su Xianci was.

He just didn’t expect Saint Heng before him had made such a blunder.

"I didn’t stay much longer and left the Su family afterward."

Saint Heng stated calmly.

"Alright, it’s late, go rest."

Saint Heng didn’t continue to say more, but rather instructed Huang Li to go sleep quickly.

Huang Li nodded, returned to sleep thoughtfully.

Several days later, Saint Heng again returned triumphantly.

Recently, Saint Heng consecutively conquered six tribes and was said to have made outstanding military achievements for the General De Kang’s Mansion. With each good thing confiscated, Saint Heng would take some for himself and also gave Hong Shen a small benefit.

Hong Shen was extremely satisfied with this subordinate.

Together with Saint Heng, he amassed a considerable wealth.

Regarding this matter, General De Kang actually observed these actions. Saint Heng’s pettiness wasn’t something he planned to hide from General De Kang.

He deliberately allowed General De Kang to see it.

But General De Kang didn’t say anything.

Saint Heng was well aware that, for those in power, they are not afraid of you being greedy for money or lustful, what they fear is you having no greed at all. If you have no weaknesses or desires, how can they control you?

So Saint Heng’s behavior was instead a very favorable point for General De Kang.

Moreover, Saint Heng’s greed was moderate.

Not crossing the line.

Under Saint Heng’s surveillance, Huang Li indeed went back to the gambling house and secretly met Hai Dongsheng.

Huang Li also reported the intelligence to Hai Dongsheng.

"From the Southern Wilderness?"

"Used to stay with the Su family?"

Hai Dongsheng, hearing these words, immediately let out a cold laugh, revealing a trace of contempt in his eyes.

"Saint Heng oh Saint Heng, did you really think by fabricating an identity from the Southern Wilderness, I wouldn’t be able to find you out? When your lies are exposed, that’s when you’ll be unlucky." At this time, Hai Dongsheng felt he had the upper hand.

Not only that, five days ago, the big team sent to other towns for purchasing also returned.

Hai Dongsheng paid a huge price to have someone from among them, after going to another town, devise a plan to acquire Saint Heng’s portrait.

Hai Dongsheng always felt the portrait brought to Ghost City had issues.

The person in the portrait and Saint Heng looked nothing alike. Hai Dongsheng suspected that this painting could have been swapped on the way, or some problem with one link, thus Hai Dongsheng needed to confirm it again.

If he can confirm Li Yun is indeed Saint Heng, Hai Dongsheng will not only receive huge rewards but also avenge the Longqing Commerce Association’s wrongs which led to his family being broken and scattered!

From both aspects, Hai Dongsheng aimed to reveal Saint Heng’s true identity!

Upon learning this from Huang Li’s mouth, Hai Dongsheng also arranged for someone to go to the Southern Wilderness to verify, to see if Li Yun even existed.

For this, Hai Dongsheng paid a considerable price.

Wealth visibly decreased.

Since stepping into the Postnatal Peak state, Saint Heng also began contemplating his path towards breaking through to the Innate Realm.

Only by breaking through to the Innate Realm could he use the Treasure Lotus Lamp, and know how to rescue Li Changqing.
