Chapter 1432: Chapter 376: Have I Become a Substitute? (6)

Especially those preparing to assassinate Xiong Yi.

They are now hiding in a small inn along with an informant inside the inn.

Everyone’s face was beaming with a very happy smile, as if a previously difficult matter had been inexplicably resolved. It felt like everything was falling into place naturally.

"The old saying is true, there’s always a way out. We were still thinking about how to assassinate this person, as he was quite well-hidden. In the end, he drank himself to death – the fate of a drunkard? Really, he’s just a funny guy."

"Yeah, now that he’s dead, the cultivator behind him will surely have to step forward, giving us a chance to observe who this cultivator really is."

"If we can get close to this cultivator, we’ll be confident enough to kill him in one blow. Once we help eliminate him, our people will come over to attack this city."

"So hearing this good news at noon means I can eat two more buns for lunch today."

"Isn’t that right? I was still thinking about how to proceed, about having to watch the disgusting life of this guy. And now we’ve got such a good result."

"Come on, brothers, let’s have a cup of tea together. Let’s celebrate with tea instead of wine, and when all this is over, we’ll come back to properly celebrate."

A few people spoke excitedly and quietly, the room filled with a joyful atmosphere.

The woman at this moment was feeling a bit strange – someone drank themselves to death? While it could happen, it’s quite a coincidence, isn’t it? Xiong Yi didn’t die at any other time, but exactly when they came to assassinate him.

This silence from the woman was noticed by the leading man.

"What’s up, Lin Qing? Why the sad face? Now that Xiong Yi is dead, you should be happier." He couldn’t help but ask.

This woman called Lin Qing furrowed her brow, pursed her lips, and after thinking seriously, shared her thoughts.

"I feel this is quite a coincidence, like we made a plan and it executed itself."

"So I wonder if someone among us dealt with this secretly?"

"Is it you, boss?"

"Your ability could indeed let someone drink themselves to death, so are you giving us a surprise?"

"Did you sneak into his mansion last night and forcefully make him drink until he died?"

The leading man was stunned upon hearing this.

Seeing others looking at him, he hesitated a bit before suddenly touching his head and laughing sheepishly:

"Hahaha, I hid it so deep, yet you all discovered me? Indeed, Lin Qing is extremely clever."

After saying this, the people around him showed even more vibrant expressions.

One man was amazed: "Is that so? I didn’t expect you, boss, to be so strong. But boss, how did you make this guy drink himself to death, and how did you manage to kill him quietly despite so many guards?"

Another man: "Boss, worthy of being our chosen one, indeed a steward at critical moments. And if it weren’t for Lin Qing noticing something was wrong, we would never have guessed it was an artificial act. Boss, you didn’t intend to reveal it, kept acting with us."

Lin Qing now also showed an admiring smile, looking at the embarrassed man before her, speaking with rare respect: "Accomplishing this is already difficult, but concealing it after completion and hiding your merit makes it even harder."

"So, big brother, you absolutely make us see you in a different light."

The room’s atmosphere instantly became more enthusiastic.

The leading man, initially a bit embarrassed, now feeling proud upon hearing the praise around him, laughed heartily while recounting last night’s actions, casually narrating the incident.

"Ah, actually, it wasn’t particularly difficult. Last night, when you all were resting, I changed clothes and sneaked into his estate."

"It was past midnight, not many guards were on duty, so I quietly made my way towards his room."

"Finally, I found Xiong Yi sleeping soundly on the bed, and I poured alcohol into his mouth. When he woke up, I covered his mouth and nose, suffocating him."

After he finished, there was applause around, and Yuchi stood behind the man, crossing his arms, nodding unconsciously.

"Am I becoming a stand-in?"

"Savallet."

"Ora, Ora, Ora, Ora Ora."

Yuchi smiled, indifferent about this matter; if this guy takes credit, it’s no big deal.

As long as this guy can handle everything, not just the merit, he could even become an emperor, it’s no matter.
