Chapter 770: Reel Them In!
When Jing Wuya stepped into the room, Chu Liang remained seated at the desk, looking just as he had before. The only difference was that the space beneath the bed had grown even more cramped.
Chu Liang immediately slipped into his role as the first fake king, rising to greet him. "General."
"Hmm." Jing Wuya cast him a brief glance before saying, "Earlier, you asked to meet Xue Lingxue. I sent word to her. She should be arriving soon."
Chu Liang’s eyes lit up at the news. Suppressing the excitement surging within, he replied, "It is an honor that you’ve taken my suggestion into consideration, General."
"This decision was partially influenced by what you said, but not entirely," Jing Wuya said, his tone deep and furious.
He continued, "My adopted daughter, the Dragon Dancer, is the child of the woman impersonating Xue Lingxue. My adopted daughter stole something of great importance from me—the Mirror of Captured Light."
He paused before turning to Chu Liang. "I don’t know if the Dragon Dancer has met up with her mother. If I had summoned the fake Xue Lingxue to the Royal Wave Bureau, there's a chance that the Dragon Dancer would be alerted. So instead, I followed your suggestion and arranged for the imposter to meet you here in the palace. If she still dares to come, it means she hasn’t met up with her daughter yet.
"When she arrives later, I want you to probe her during your conversation. Find out if she has my Mirror of Captured Light."
"Understood," Chu Liang responded immediately.
They had been searching for Liao Yuexian to settle this matter, and if Jing Wuya could lure her here, it would be the perfect opportunity to capture everyone in one decisive move.
However, beneath the bed, the Dragon Dancer panicked when she heard this. If her mother arrived unaware of the situation, she could walk straight into danger and be harmed by Jing Wuya.
