Chapter 348 - 323 Part 1
Gu Dao and Xi Feng hurriedly followed, so many people! What were they doing?
"Heir Zong, we discovered a Ghost Shadow entering the Zong Sheng Residence, and we chased it here," Ju Nanyi said curtly, watching Yunqian’s reaction.
"Ghost Shadow? It’s laughable to claim our residence could harbor a Ghost Shadow," Gu Dao replied, finding the idea utterly ludicrous.
"If there’s none, a look will confirm it. Why so defensive?" Yu Yuan shot back, "Heir Zong, why are you only wearing a robe?"
Could it be he hadn’t had time to put on a coat?
The moment Yu Yuan spoke, everyone’s attention shifted to Yunqian. They had just stripped a coat off a suspicious person in the forest, and here was Yunqian without one—a striking coincidence.
"Who are you saying is defensive?" Gu Dao instantly raised his voice, irritably looking at Yu Yuan, daring to be so bold in front of the Zong Sheng Residence.
Yu Yuan was about to charge in; what was the point of wasting words? They could just enter and see for themselves.
Ju Nanyi immediately stopped Yu Yuan; upon seeing this, the guards forcefully halted their charge.
"Heir Zong, we indeed saw with our own eyes the Ghost Shadow enter the Zong Sheng Residence," Ju Nanyi spoke again, his tone firm, his masculine demeanor commanding, his words inexplicably compelling.
"Lord Ju, I’ve been in the residence the whole time, and I am certain there is no Ghost Shadow here," Yunqian, though unsure why Ju Nanyi was so adamant, believed that if there truly was a Ghost Shadow in the Zong Sheng Residence, it would not escape his eyes.
