The expressions of the three, upon hearing this, changed slightly.
They weren’t foolish and didn’t imdiately agree.
Ma Tao and Lv Suhua remained silent, deep in thought, while Jin Xiaolan looked at Ling Piaomu and directly asked, "Why should we trust you? We can’t even get in, and you can?"
Ling Piaomu raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at the two guards, "I want to take three guests inside, is that possible?"
The guards clearly recognized Ling Piaomu. Upon hearing her request, they hesitated for two seconds before finally saying, "Yes, but you can’t take them to see Miss Gu."
Upon hearing the guard’s affirmative response, Ling Piaomu ignored the latter part of their statent, turning to face the three of them.
Jin Xiaolan also heard the guard’s answer and quietly speculated about Ling Piaomu’s identity but remained outwardly composed, smiling as she said to Ling Piaomu, "Why don’t you tell us what the problem is first? We can’t guarantee we’d answer all your questions correctly."
Ling Piaomu smiled slightly and said, "It’s alright. I won’t make it difficult for you. Just answer what you know."
"Then go ahead and ask." This ti, it was Lv Suhua who spoke.
After all, answering a few questions doesn’t cost anything and might even lead to eting Miss Gu. It seed quite worthwhile.
Ling Piaomu, upon hearing this, asked the first question, "How many tis has Gu Zhiqi visited the dical Alliance?"
"Is Gu Zhiqi Miss Gu’s full na?" Instead of answering Ling Piaomu’s question, Lv Suhua asked back.
Ling Piaomu heard this and was silent for two seconds before nodding.
At that mont, a tinge of regret arose for having asked these three questions.
If they don’t even know Gu Zhiqi’s na, can they really answer her questions?
Seeing Ling Piaomu nod, the three silently noted Gu Zhiqi’s full na, and then Jin Xiaolan spoke up, "As far as we know, Miss Gu has visited the dical Alliance twice, besides this ti, she also ca once more than half a month ago."
Regarding other tis, Jin Xiaolan didn’t know if Gu Zhiqi had visited the dical Alliance.
Ling Piaomu continued to ask, "I heard that at the end of last month, there was a revolt in the dical Alliance, which Gu Zhiqi quelled?"
The three nodded in unison once more.
Ling Piaomu: "It seems the disciples of the dical Alliance, as well as the managent people like Minister Yue, are all quite enthusiastic about Gu Zhiqi. Besides her quelling the revolt in the dical Alliance, is there any other reason?"
No sooner had Ling Piaomu asked than Jin Xiaolan answered swiftly, "Miss Gu’s Alchemy is very powerful. Last ti, when a disciple of the dical Alliance was poisoned, the antidotes they found were hardly enough. It was Miss Gu who taught the Alliance Hierarch and others to concoct the antidote."
As soon as Jin Xiaolan finished speaking, Lv Suhua imdiately chid in, "Not only that but everyone who practiced Alchemy alongside Miss Gu made significant advancents in their Alchemy skills, with more than ninety percent advancing."
On that day, Lu Yuanjiang boasted about his advancent in front of them, prompting Lv Suhua to investigate further.
Upon investigating, Lv Suhua realized that it wasn’t just Lu Yuanjiang—all those who assisted Miss Gu had almost all advanced.
Gu Zhiqi gathered a total of twelve assistants, and among them, only one had not advanced.
This advancent rate was truly astonishing.
Ling Piaomu: ?????
Even when Jin Xiaolan ntioned Gu Zhiqi’s prowess in Alchemy, Ling Piaomu was already bewildered, with question marks floating above her head.
After hearing Lv Suhua’s words, a ring of question marks hovered around Ling Piaomu’s head, leaving her completely confused.
