Nianyang and Li Tingyan’s hearts sank simultaneously; was this the end of the clues?
"However..." Wen Qingmu’s two words imdiately piqued their curiosity. The handso man slowly said, "In that family back then, there was a woman the sa age as Alan called Phoenix, who was a doctor there, most skilled in the Disguise Technique."
Disguise Technique?
Nianyang and Li Tingyan exchanged a glance. Nianyang asked, "Master Beauty, yesterday I felt there was sothing strange about the Jade King’s voice, like it had a hint of femininity. So is this Jade King the Phoenix?"
Wen Qingmu repeatedly watched the surveillance, his gaze sinking, and he nodded lightly.
"I can confirm, the Jade King is Phoenix, she has recognized you, probably last night she ca specifically for you."
Li Tingyan’s eyes were shrouded in gloom. "Elder Wen, what personal relationship does this Phoenix have with that family?"
Wen Qingmu replied, "Didn’t you capture a group of pirates? They are likely the ones that family relied on to survive. Piracy is the fastest way to make money, with so many people in and out of their sect, they couldn’t possibly sit idle and survive. Doing other businesses would easily expose them, so they developed piracy to steal supplies and make money."
"I went to ask this morning, and they were just so riffraff from Phoenix’s group, without direct contact with Phoenix. They didn’t have any important information, and Phoenix’s group is very cunning, it’s hard to find them."
Wen Qingmu’s expression was indifferent, "Phoenix’s group is indeed hard to catch, they are very experienced in organization.
Eighteen years ago we suffered heavy losses and still couldn’t completely capture them.
"Now they must be even more guarded. That Phoenix was the adopted sister of the family’s patriarch back then. She’s definitely coming after Nianyang for revenge for her brother, you must be extrely careful."
Nianyang suddenly spoke, "Does Phoenix like Master Beauty?"
Wen Qingmu froze for a mont, pursed his lips with so disgust, as if the association with Phoenix made him very nauseous, "How did you know?"
Nianyang chuckled softly, "Master Beauty, you didn’t know, did you? A woman’s intuition is always accurate. The way that Phoenix looked at was full of hostility. If she was rely avenging her brother, she wouldn’t go through so many hoops, she’d deal with directly, that’s why I have this suspicion."
After all, Phoenix is the sa age as the grand-aunt, and with Master Beauty being so enchanting, able to attract the grand-aunt, how could he not attract that Phoenix, right?
Wen Qingmu nodded, "You are very smart, Phoenix does like , but such won don’t catch my eye. However, she’s very vicious, may particularly hate you because of Alan, and her disguise skill is exceptional, almost flawless, so it’s hard to detect. You must be careful, trust no strangers."

Leaving the Traditional Chinese dicine Family, returning to the car, Li Tingyan’s face was unusually grim. Nianyang leaned over, touched his dark face, and softly asked, "What’s wrong, Ayang, still thinking about that Phoenix?"
Li Tingyan quietly looked at Nianyang, holding her hand, his voice sowhat hoarse as he spoke, "Nini, there are hidden dangers around you. I’m very worried about you."
Nianyang embraced the man, gently soothing him, "Don’t worry, my skills are quite good, and I have space, at worst there’s always the Golden Silkworm Gu. Who can do anything to ?"
