Zongwu: Aspiring to be the mastermind behind the scenes

Chapter 33: Is Boss Qian the mastermind? Luo Ma is the mastermind!
This was Lu Xiaofeng's third time entering the Paradise Tower, but his mood was completely different from the first time.

Today is different from yesterday, someone is helping to attract attention.

Every place was heavily guarded, so after he entered the first floor, he had no chance to go anywhere else.

Lu Xiaofeng came to the stairs and waited for a while, then saw two rows of torches rushing into the Jile Tower.

"Six Gates is investigating the case!"

"Today we will only capture Ji Le Lou, everyone else please retreat!"

Jiang Long and Luo Ma shouted loudly, drew their weapons and rushed towards the surroundings.

The guests in the building were shocked when they saw this and wanted to leave in all directions, while the people from the Jile Building around them had ferocious looks on their faces and rushed directly towards the many constables.

For a moment, there were swords and knives flying everywhere, blood was spurting out, and the entire Ji Le Tower was in chaos.

The guard at the stairs naturally had no intention of guarding this thing, so he joined the battlefield.

Seeing this, Lu Xiaofeng quickly rushed upstairs.

Upstairs, other people also heard the sound, including the owner of Ji Le Tower.

When he saw the situation below, his face changed and he immediately ran to the back of the building, activated a mechanism on a wall, and a secret passage was immediately revealed.

But a gust of wind blew by, and Lu Xiaofeng stood in front of him: "Master Ji Le, where are you going?"

"Lu Xiaofeng!"

The owner of Ji Le Tower gritted his teeth and turned to flee elsewhere.

There are many traps in the Paradise Building. As the owner of the building, he naturally understands them. While escaping, he activated various traps to try to stop them.

Although Lu Xiaofeng was an excellent martial artist, he had to slow down when faced with these traps, and for a while he was unable to catch up.

At this time, Loma also rushed to the second floor and met the fleeing owner of Ji Le Tower head-on, and stabbed him directly with a sword.

"Leave him alive!" Lu Xiaofeng shouted hurriedly.

The sword in Roma's hand could not be stopped, and the sword pierced the throat of the owner of Ji Le Tower, killing him on the spot.

"Ugh!"

Lu Xiaofeng sighed helplessly.

Boss Qian rushed over and pulled open the sleeve of the owner of Jile Tower, revealing a tattoo of an axe.

"This is the Luban Divine Axe Sect's tattoo... So the owner of the Bliss Tower is Yue Qing!"

"Whether it's Yue Qing or not, we can't confirm it based on this mark."

Lu Xiaofeng said, "Zhu Ting is right here, so let him come and recognize his senior brother."

Zhu Ting rushed over and, without even removing his mask, simply glanced down and said, "How could he be my senior brother? For us Luban Divine Axe Sect members, the most important thing is to be deft with our hands. This guy's hands don't look deft at all."

Boss Qian was surprised: "He is not Yue Qing? Then where is Yue Qing?"

Lu Xiaofeng said, "Where is Yue Qing? Then I have to ask you... Boss Qian!"

Boss Qian said in panic, "Master Lu, what do you mean?"

Lu Xiaofeng said, "What I mean is that the so-called Lord of Paradise is just a pawn sent out to die. You are the one who controls Paradise!"

"That's right!"

Wu Yan walked down from the third floor and said, "He's the one who controls Jile Tower from behind the scenes! My father, Yue Qing, did all those wrong things under his coercion! Hero Lu, Uncle Master Zhu, all the officials, you must not let him go!"

"You! You're talking nonsense!"

Boss Qian was completely distracted and couldn't help but look at Roma.

Roma's face was grim, the long sword in his hand reflected the candlelight, and the murderous intent in his eyes was extremely obvious.

At this moment, what else does Boss Qian not understand?
It turns out that in this so-called sacrifice of the rook to save the king, the "rook" that was abandoned was not only the owner of the Bliss Tower who was now lying on the ground, but also him!

Roma, the real mastermind behind the scenes, can kill the owner of Jile Tower with one sword without hesitation, so naturally he can also kill him with one sword!

At this moment, Luo Ma was right next to him! Boss Qian reacted extremely quickly, grabbing Zhu Ting beside him and throwing him directly at Luo Ma. Then he swung his hand and scattered several small golden darts.

Luo Ma did have the intention to take action, but no matter what, he did not dare to kill Zhu Ting directly.

He could only hold back the long sword in his hand and caught Zhu Ting.

Lu Xiaofeng's body was as fast as lightning. He had already flashed over here in an instant. He stretched out his hand and pinched a golden dart with two fingers to prevent Zhu Ting from getting hurt.

As for the others, there is no need to worry.

Such a large number of hidden weapons would basically not be able to exert much power unless they were used with techniques such as 'Flowers Raining Down Gold Coins from the Sky'.

But this stopped everyone from taking action.

When I turned around, Boss Qian had disappeared.

Lu Xiaofeng guessed the direction he was escaping and immediately used his lightness skills to catch up with him.

The others didn't understand, and when they saw the two of them disappear, they couldn't help but become anxious.

Wu Yan said: "They may have left through the secret passage. I know where it is. Just follow me!"

Everyone was shocked and confused, but for now they could only follow her to a place on the second floor, where they saw a secret passage.

This was exactly the secret passage that the Lord of Ji Le Tower had planned to take when he was escaping, but was blocked by Lu Xiaofeng and was prevented from leaving.

As one of the people behind the scenes controlling Ji Le Lou, Boss Qian naturally knew about the existence of this secret passage. He seized the opportunity and left through it just now.

Lu Xiaofeng also knew this, so at that moment, he thought of this secret passage and chased after him.

"Where does this secret passage lead to?" Jiang Long asked.

Wuyan said, "It's Yunjian Temple."

"Yunjian Temple?"

Luo Ma was surprised and said, "I heard that Boss Qian's wife fell ill and has been recuperating in Yunjian Temple for the past few years. It seems that this person is indeed the mastermind behind Jile Tower. He used this secret passage to get from Yunjian Temple to Jile Tower!"

Wuyan nodded: "Yes, that's it!"

Under Wuyan's leadership, everyone moved forward along the secret passage.

On the other side, Boss Qian had already arrived at Yunjian Temple.

The temple is even quieter at night.

There was a sound of wind whistling past, and a figure blocked Boss Qian's way.

"Phoenix Dances in the Nine Heavens...it truly lives up to its reputation..."

Boss Qian looked at the figure before him, his face filled with despair. He fell to his knees with a thud and said, "Master Lu, I know it's my greed that has led to today's disaster. I know I will die... But please, Master Lu, have mercy and don't let my guilt implicate my wife and children..."

"Wife, children, and the elderly...Are you talking about Madam Qian and Miss Xia'er in this temple?"

"no!"

Qian Laodao said: "Now that things have come to this, I will confess to you, Master Lu. In fact, the mastermind of this case is not me, but..."

"Loma? Right!" Lu Xiaofeng said first.

"Hero Lu actually already knew about this?"

Boss Qian was surprised and said, "Hahaha, Luo Ma thought he could hide the truth from everyone. At this time, he wanted to sacrifice the car to save the king. I didn't expect that his little trick had been seen through by Hero Lu a long time ago!

That's right, Roma is the mastermind of this case. He was the one who approached me and asked me to assist him, but I... was greedy after all, and that's why I made such a big mistake!"

With a sigh, Boss Qian continued, "Master Lu, I have a piece of ironclad evidence that can nail Luo Ma to the head. I will tell you, Master Lu, and I hope you can save the lives of my wife, children, and elders after this incident!"

A few years ago, after Roma controlled Yue Qing and his daughter, forced them to design and build the Paradise Tower, and produced the silver note master, he wanted to get rid of them!
But I felt it was inappropriate, because Jilelou was completely under the control of Luo Ma, and the master version was also in his hands. I could only provide some support from the sidelines and had no control over the initiative. He could abandon me at any time and do these things alone.

So, I took the risk and rescued Yue Qing and his daughter, and imprisoned them in Yunjian Temple... Madam Qian is actually Yue Qing, and Xia'er is his daughter!"
