Jiang Xuan's cheeks flushed red as he was asked this question. His voice was weak and powerless: "What do you mean, who do I suspect? I don't suspect anyone. Don't talk nonsense here and disturb my mood."

Wan Shufang rolled her eyes at him and said, "It's because your attitude is a little weird, and Old Lady Shang's behavior is too strange. It feels like she is trying to stop me from saving Chang Xuewei."

With one hand supporting her cheek and the other hand bent and tapping lightly on the table, Wan Shufang frowned slightly and said in a cold tone: "If I wasn't sure that I was the one who poisoned Chang Xuewei, based on Old Lady Shang's attitude, I would have suspected that Chang Xuewei's coma was all because of her."

Seeing tea on the table, Chen Changli immediately poured a cup for Wan Shufang and Jiang Xuan, "Shufang, your guess may be true."

"What did you guess?" Wan Shufang was shocked when she heard him say that.

Jiang Xuan was breathing rapidly: "Chen Changli, don't make wild guesses. This villa is built on a steep cliff. How can ordinary people come here without a guide? So the people who stay here are either important figures of the New Heaven Society or Chang Xuewei's confidants."

"Chang Xuewei is loyal to the New Heaven Society and has many Gu Masters under her command. Who would dare to attack her? Do you think the people in the New Heaven Society are as bold and fearless as you two?"

When Jiang Xuan said this, his voice became weaker and weaker.

He thought of Yi Shu's changeable temper and Cao Yunqi's avoidance of it.

The thought struck Jiang Xuan like a bolt from the blue. His mind went blank. After a long while, he finally uttered a sentence: "Impossible?"

"What's impossible? Jiang Xuan, you have to know that everyone in this world is here for profit." Chen Changli said solemnly, "No matter how capable Chang Xuewei is, she is just an elder on the surface, not the master of the New Heaven Society."

"Moreover, the people in your New Heaven Society are too complicated. With so many interests and ambitions intertwined, can you really guarantee that everyone will have the same goal?"

"Not to mention that the world is in chaos now. Since the New Heaven Society intends to fight for the world, it must come out and compete with others openly."

"However, Chang Xuewei has no such plan. She still wants to hide in the dark and wait for an opportunity to strike."

Chen Changli did not look down on Chang Xuewei, but he really believed that Chang Xuewei, who was bent on using the Phoenix Gu to turn everyone in the world into weirdos, would not take the initiative to reveal her identity. She would only hide like a rat in the gutter and then take advantage of the opportunity.

"The master of our Xintianhui is in charge of the overall situation. Chang Xuewei is just an elder. Her decisions cannot affect the master, so no matter how much others think, they will just unite as one." Jiang Xuan still wanted to struggle.

Chen Changli's words stirred up a thousand waves: "Shufang and I suspect that Chang Xuewei is the master of the New Heaven Society."

Jiang Xuan seemed to have heard a joke and wanted to laugh out loud to mock the whimsical couple in front of him.

However, when he was about to grin, Chen Changli quickly tore off his sleeve and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Woo woo~" Jiang Xuan's pupils widened in disbelief, as if he was shocked by Chen Changli's speed.

"This is our guess. We can't come to a conclusion about the specifics. We can only try to figure it out to understand why Chang Xuewei took us to the cave opposite." Chen Changli hinted.

Jiang Xuan continued to whimper. Chen Changli looked at him and said in a cold voice, "Jiang Xuan, I know you don't want to get involved with my husband and me, but this villa has a big problem. Cao Yunqi and his men seem to be loyal to Chang Xuewei, but maybe they have already betrayed Chang Xuewei and joined others."

"As the person who brought Chang Xuewei here, you will naturally be suspected and feared by them. Our marriage is just an excuse."

"Of course you may think that we are exaggerating and trying to betray us completely in order to gain Cao Yunqi's trust."

"But do you really dare to bet on this possibility? Don't forget that this is also the manufacturing base of opium. If you accidentally take opium, you will probably become a puppet that is neither human nor ghost."

Wan Shufang listened to Chen Changli's threats to Jiang Xuan and agreed with him: "What does a weirdo look like? You have seen it too. Although people who take opium will not become like weirdos, they are not much better either."

Jiang Xuan's cheeks turned red with anxiety when he heard this, but because there was a piece of rag blocking his mouth, he couldn't utter a word for a long time.

"Keep your voice down, so as not to arouse suspicion from the people in the dark." Seeing this, Chen Changli gave him a warning and pulled the cloth out of his mouth.

Jiang Xuan rubbed his mouth and snorted twice, "Aren't you two very brave? Why are you so scared?"

"Cao Yunqi and Yi Shu, no matter how smart they are, they are no match for you two. After all, you have Phoenix Gu."

Jiang Xuan emphasized the words "Phoenix Gu" deliberately. His expression looked very puzzled, as if some complicated emotions had been suppressed in his heart for a long time and almost burst out.

However, due to reality, he had to hold back his emotions.

Chen Changli said in a very cold tone: "So what if there is Phoenix Gu? Yi Shu dared to take action, which means she doesn't care about Phoenix Gu as much as Cao Xuewei does, so our lives are still blocked."

Wan Shufang's expression was slightly restrained, and her voice was calm: "When we were in the dungeon, my husband and I had been discussing Yi Shu's matter. We always believed that Yi Shu either took opium on his own initiative, or was harmed by someone."

Having said this, she slammed the table hard, attracting all of Jiang Xuan's attention, and then dropped a thunderbolt.

"Chang Xuewei's mood changes in recent days are similar to Yi Shu's, so I guess there is a traitor in Xintian. This traitor not only attacked Yi Shu, but also made Chang Xuewei fall into the trap without knowing it."

"You're not kidding, are you?" After hearing Wan Shufang's confident words, Jiang Xuan already believed it a little bit in his heart, but he still questioned her, because he didn't want to believe that the cautious Chang Xuewei would be harmed by someone.

"I really want to joke with you, but I dare not joke with you about this matter." Wan Shufang rolled her eyes at him, "After all, this villa is full of poisonous flowers. If we are not careful, we may be infected."

"You are a doctor with good medical skills. If you are willing to put aside your grudges and doubts, just follow my thoughts, or help us figure out the secret of this villa. When my husband and I encounter a crisis, we can rely on this secret to get a glimmer of hope."

Wan Shufang's words were rather euphemistic, and Jiang Xuan understood them immediately. He was silent for a long time, then asked doubtfully, "Yi Shu and Cao Yunqi are obviously the owners of this villa. Even if there are traitors, they can't be hurt. Wan Shufang, do you have any evidence to prove that what you said is true?"

"We don't need evidence, we only need facts. And it depends on whether you can accept these facts." Chen Changli's voice was extremely cold. Jiang Xuan felt as if he had poured a basin of ice water over him from head to toe, and he was instantly chilled.

He pursed his lips, then said with a bitter face, "I want to live, and I don't want to die in suffocation, but this doesn't mean I will believe your nonsense. But you two are too confident, so I have to believe it no matter how unwilling I am."

He stretched out his hand and clenched it into a fist, then released it. Jiang Xuan asked with a burning gaze, "Can you two find out what's wrong with Yi Shu and Chang Xuewei? How can I help?"
