Chapter 959: Chapter 0959: The God-Sister Wants Him to Do This with His Wife

Although Luo Yang spoke in a low voice, everyone present could clearly hear what he said.

In other words, Master Hua heard it too.

However, he considered himself the leader here, among all these people.

But Luo Yang showed no respect for him as the leader, which naturally annoyed him.

Luo Yang felt no goodwill toward Master Hua, so he, of course, saw no need to be polite.

"Heh! Who do you think you are?! Why would my brother need to speak loudly just so you could hear? Heh!" Hua XiYi sneered.

Judging by the venomous glare in Master Hua’s eyes, it was clear he wanted to kill Hua XiYi.

Unfortunately, he lacked the ability to do so.

"Elder, please prepare to spread the word."

"Young brother, I’ll arrange someone right away to carry it out!"

As Wuweizi spoke, he pulled out his phone and made a call, no doubt organizing people to carry out Luo Yang’s instructions.

Luo Yang’s plan was to force the people from Skull Fortress, who were hiding in the shadows, to reveal themselves.

With both sides out in the open, things would be easier to handle.

Otherwise, with Skull Fortress lurking and taking potshots, it would only result in injuries.

After Wuweizi finished his call, Hua XiYi spoke again, "Heh, your wife hasn’t come back yet? Could something have happened to her? Heh."

Luo Yang didn’t know where Gu Xue had gone either.

If Gu Xue had entered the Altar, it was impossible for her to return so soon.

The Altar was full of dangers, which made Luo Yang worry for her.

If she was only strolling around the resort, no matter how far she had wandered, she should be nearby by now.

"Let me call her again." Luo Yang said.

Gu Xue had chosen the worst possible moment to vanish.

To be honest, Luo Yang was starting to have doubts about her.

This wasn’t a rash judgment but one based on reasoning.

It’s worth noting that the three Gu sisters are triplets.

If, as Gu Yun had said, Gu Xue fainted at the sight of blood, then Gu Xiang and Gu Yun should exhibit the same reaction.

Yet, based on Luo Yang’s recollection, when faced with the two bloody skeletons, Gu Xiang and Gu Yun hadn’t shown much fear.

Of course, their delicate faces had looked surprised.

But it was nowhere near the point of fainting.

If Gu Xue truly felt unwell, logically, her two younger sisters should have accompanied her outside for some fresh air.

Yet, she had left alone—how could her sisters feel at ease with that?

Based on this line of reasoning, Luo Yang had developed suspicions about Gu Xue.

But the unpredictability of events left room for doubt—maybe Gu Xue really was overcome by the sight of blood and had temporarily vanished from everyone’s view; that was also possible.

Until more was revealed, Luo Yang dared not claim that Gu Xue left the courtyard with any ulterior motive.

The call connected quickly, and Luo Yang asked, "We’re all worried about your safety. Are you back yet?"

Gu Xue replied, "Huh, what’s the rush? I’m at the gate."

Footsteps could immediately be heard approaching the courtyard.

As soon as the call ended, Gu Xue’s figure appeared.

A single glance, and Luo Yang felt a sinking dread.

Gu Xue’s delicate face showed no trace of panic, completely contradicting Gu Yun’s earlier claim that she fainted at the sight of blood.

Judging from her utterly normal—and even rosy—complexion, it was evident she wouldn’t faint at the sight of two bloody skeletons.

If Luo Yang could see it, how could the others not notice?

"Heh! I heard you’re afraid of blood?"

"Yes. Huh, the sight of blood makes me nauseous."

Based on her complexion alone, it would be reasonable to conclude that Gu Xue was lying.

However, since Gu Xue was adamant she was afraid of blood, no one could do much about it.

Given the extreme circumstances, everyone’s nerves were stretched taut.

The slightest anomaly would only magnify suspicion.

"Heh! Where did you go just now?" Hua XiYi asked again.

The moment she spoke, Luo Yang knew what her intention was.

The resort was equipped with surveillance cameras everywhere. By reviewing the footage, it would be possible to see exactly where Gu Xue had gone.

If Gu Xue didn’t think of this detail and her statement didn’t align with the surveillance footage, Hua XiYi and Master Hua would surely pay extra attention to the three Gu sisters.

At that point, even Luo Yang would find it hard to help them.

For this reason, regardless of what Gu Xue had been doing, Luo Yang could only hope she chose her words carefully.

"Just tell the truth; this resort is full of cameras. You can’t fool us." Luo Yang said with a smile.

Gu Xue froze for a moment, then cast a grateful glance toward Luo Yang.

"Heh! Are you two putting on an act? Heh!" Hua XiYi, a bit upset, sneered.

Her small ploy had been exposed by Luo Yang.

Although she and the three Gu sisters had only just met, they were not enemies—and besides, they were all willing to pledge themselves to Luo Yang.

Just for that reason, Luo Yang couldn’t bear to see harm come to them.

In his gut, Luo Yang felt Gu Xue must have gone to meet someone or stepped away to make an enigmatic phone call.

The three Gu sisters, being members of the Ten Thousand Souls Sect, had come here for the Blood Devil.

But whether they had hidden allies lurking in the shadows, Luo Yang couldn’t be certain.

What was clear, however, was that if Gu Xue’s lies were exposed, the three Gu sisters would be in serious danger.

With the Blood Devil yet to be found, Luo Yang didn’t want to see anyone on his side hurt or killed.

Regardless, the three Gu sisters were currently on Luo Yang’s side.

"Sister Hua, I was just worried she might say something careless and arouse your suspicions. That would waste our time. We need to focus our energy on dealing with Skull Fortress."

This explanation was just barely good enough.

Hua XiYi chuckled and said, "Don’t wander off on your own anymore—it’s more dangerous for you. Stick with us, and you’ll have a better chance of surviving. Heh. I’m only reminding you because you’re my brother’s wife."

Her implication was clear—there was no need for Gu Xue to explain where she had been.

"Huh, if you suspect me, I’ll just head home now! I don’t want to stay here. Goodbye!"

As she spoke, she waved her hand and turned to leave.

"Heh! You’re not going anywhere!"

After a pause, Hua XiYi continued speaking.

"Heh, stay here. You’ll be safer. Once this is over, you can go back."

"Huh, stay and you’ll still suspect me. Leave, and you won’t let me. What am I supposed to do?"

"Heh, brother, aren’t you going to comfort your wife?"

Knowing full well that Gu Xue was putting on a show, Luo Yang had no choice but to step forward and hold her in his arms.

Gently stroking Gu Xue’s soft back, he whispered, "Since you’re already here, treat it as an eye-opening experience. It’s rare to witness such major events in life. With me here, don’t be afraid."

Gu Xue pushed Luo Yang away, pouted, and said coquettishly, "Huh, you’ve been hiding the fact that you have so many wives from me. I still haven’t settled that score..."

Just as the two were about to start bickering, Master Hua grew impatient.

"Hey! Cut it out with all this mushy nonsense!"

"Heh! My brother and his wife are having a tender moment; what’s it to you? Heh! Jealous much?"

"You crazy woman!"

"Heh! Why are you yelling so loudly? Trying to scare the baby? Heh!"

Master Hua clenched his fists, looking as if he were about to lunge at Hua XiYi.

Both of them appeared reckless, but they were far more calculating than they seemed.

Argue as they might, it was unlikely either of them would risk their lives over such trivial matters.

Holding Gu Xue and feeling the warmth of her body, Luo Yang’s feelings were a complicated mix.

One thing was for sure—Gu Xue was hiding something.

Skull Fortress had surfaced at this precise moment, and Gu Xue had conveniently disappeared for just the right amount of time. Luo Yang couldn’t help but suspect a connection between her and Skull Fortress.

However, with everyone present, he couldn’t directly confront her about it.
