Chapter 1199: Chapter 1198 Even More Certain

Lü Donglin listened in astonishment, "Taking advantage of someone’s misfortune? What do you mean?"

Su Yang hesitated for a moment but still revealed the incident with Xiao Hei.

Lü Donglin’s expression changed as he exclaimed, "That can’t be? Chen Benshuang couldn’t possibly do such a thing. I know her quite well, and she’s always been clear about her grudges and favors. She has a grudge against you, she would only deal with you, she would definitely not vent her anger on people around you, nor target them. Therefore, she certainly wouldn’t capture your disciple!"

"But, the investigation results show that last night, only Chen Benshuang passed by that place. Moreover, the time Chen Benshuang lingered there coincides with the time Xiao Hei started bleeding!" Su Yang said. "Xiao Hei is quite strong, and it was his first time in the Capital City, so he wouldn’t have made any enemies. The only person with the ability to defeat him and a grudge would be Chen Benshuang!"

"This..." Lü Donglin fell silent, mused for a long time, and whispered, "I still believe in Chen Benshuang, she wouldn’t do such a thing, but..."

"But what?" Su Yang asked.

"But, if this matter involves the Chen Family, then it’s a different story," Lü Donglin said. "It might not have been Chen Benshuang who captured Xiao Hei, but it could’ve been the Chen Family!"

Su Yang was stunned and asked curiously, "Do you mean to say that this wasn’t orchestrated by Chen Benshuang?"

"She might not even be aware of it!" Lü Donglin said. "I know Chen Benshuang very well, if she knew about this, she would never let the Chen Family commit such a despicable act. So, it’s very likely that the Chen Family is doing this behind her back!"

Su Yang fell into silence; this was precisely what he was more worried about. If Xiao Hei had really fallen into the hands of the Chen Family, that would truly be dangerous.

At least, Chen Benshuang was someone you could reason with, she had principles. But the Chen Family might not necessarily have any!

"You spread the news about wanting to kill Huang Mingshan to lower the Chen Family’s guard, right?" Lü Donglin asked.

"Yes!" Su Yang nodded.

"Do you want the Chen Family to contact you?" Lü Donglin said. "But if the Chen Family really plans on using Xiao Hei to threaten you, they definitely wouldn’t make a move unless they were completely sure they could kill you. This approach is actually very dangerous!"

"At least they have to contact me!" Su Yang said. "If they don’t come to me, I won’t have any clue how to rescue Xiao Hei."

"That’s also true," Lü Donglin nodded and said, "Then, should I help you by asking around a bit?"

"Better not," Su Yang said. "Right now, I’m just speculating that Xiao Hei is in the hands of the Chen Family. If I’m wrong and you start asking around, it might give someone a chance to take advantage, and that would be problematic!"

"No worries, I’m just going to ask indirectly," Lü Donglin said. "Besides, I’m going to find out from Chen Benshuang, I won’t confront her directly, so don’t worry about that."

"Then I’ll have to trouble you," Su Yang breathed a sigh of relief.

"What are you planning to do about your situation with Huang Mingshan?" Lü Donglin asked.

"Let’s wait and see; that’s not important right now. The key is whether the Chen Family will contact me," Su Yang said.

"I just worry that the Chen Family might be waiting for you to confront Huang Mingshan, hoping to let the Huang Family kill you so they won’t have to make a move," Lü Donglin said.

Su Yang was taken aback, as he had been preoccupied with rescuing Xiao Hei and hadn’t thought that far ahead. Lü Donglin’s words were a wake-up call.

Indeed, if the Chen Family simply did nothing and waited for him to confront the Huang Family directly, he would have trapped himself.

After pondering for a while, Su Yang said, "We’ll have to take it one step at a time. Huang Mingshan, I will have to deal with him sooner or later!"

Lü Donglin fell silent for a while and didn’t say anything further. He had heard some of the grudges between Su Yang and Huang Mingshan, and he knew this was something Su Yang would definitely do; it was just a matter of timing.

Now, the only thing Su Yang could rely on was that he hadn’t yet advanced to Terrestrial Immortal. Although Huang Wuyan of the Huang Family was powerful, ranked ninth on the Heavenly List, he still had to abide by the Law Enforcers!

After putting down his phone, Lü Donglin did not delay and immediately had Bai Qing contact Chen Benshuang, asking her out for a drink.

Chen Benshuang used to have a good relationship with Lü Donglin, often going out drinking with him, so they were old acquaintances. It was the first time Lü Donglin had invited her for a drink, and by all logic, she should have agreed.

But after Bai Qing made the call, she walked over to Lü Donglin with her lips pursed: "She’s not going."

"Not going?" Lü Donglin’s heart skipped a beat; given Chen Benshuang’s lively character, she definitely wouldn’t miss out. Could it be that she was really tied up with something?

"Clean up, I’ll go see her myself!" Lü Donglin said.

"Forget it," Bai Qing said. "She’s not at home, but at the Black Widow’s place, and I could hear in the voice that Zi Nu seemed to be nearby."

Lü Donglin frowned as the Black Widow was not often at the Chen Family. What was Chen Benshuang doing at the Black Widow’s at this time?

And it was strange for Zi Nu to be there too; didn’t he usually follow Chen Benhao around?

"Didn’t you ask her what happened?" Lü Donglin asked with curiosity.

"I did ask," Bai Qing said. "She mumbled a reply, something about being ambushed and injured last night and went to Black Widow’s place to heal."

Lü Donglin’s eyes widened with realization; when they left the Purple Lotus Garden last night, Chen Benshuang was perfectly fine. If she was ambushed and injured afterward and considering what Su Yang said, Lü Donglin could almost be sure that she was attacked during that time frame on that route.

Could it be that she was ambushed by Xiao Hei on her way and got injured?

But then, with Chen Benshuang’s strength, she hurt Xiao Hei, leading to the subsequent events?

Confused, but without the ability to further inquire into Chen Benshuang’s situation, Lü Donglin didn’t want to act rashly, not knowing Chen Benshuang’s current condition or Xiao Hei’s whereabouts.

After some thought, Lü Donglin still called Su Yang to relay what Bai Qing had found out.

Su Yang, having heard all this, was quite stirred and spoke firmly, "What else can this mean but that she and Xiao Hei fought!"

Lü Donglin stayed silent for a moment then whispered, "If that’s really the case, then it’s a bit troublesome. It won’t be easy to persuade the Chen Family to release him."

"It has to be done, regardless of ease!" Su Yang spoke resolutely. "No matter what, he is my disciple, and I must rescue
