It was currently afternoon on Jijing Island.
Things had been tense in the Elders' Association ever since Huo Zhi failed to return from Mingyu Island with Gu Si half a month ago. They were prepared to send people straight to the capital to capture him.
But because Gu Mang had never been reasonable and merciful toward the Elders' Association, they dared not act rashly, so they were feeling very vexed. Every day, they held meetings to discuss how they could deal with Gu Mang and Gu Si.
To them, Meng Jinyang's case was akin to a breakthrough. They wanted to make use of her to get at Gu Mang.
The moment Huo Zhi exited the meeting room, he contacted Gu Mang right away, but she never bothered to reply.
Just when he was about to put his phone away, the screen suddenly lit up.
[Courting death, huh? I'll play along.]
…
Ye residence's living room.
