Chapter 283: Chapter 283 Who is the Assassin of Old Deng (3)_1
However, no matter how many doubts they held within their hearts, Murong Chen swiftly took over Murong Enterprises.
And Zhou Anbang, the day after Situ Xin handed over his evidence of crimes to the Discipline Inspection Commission, was promptly arrested.
Once Zhou Anbang entered the Discipline Inspection Commission’s custody, he hung his head in front of the evidence they presented. He suspected that someone from his own side had betrayed him because he thought that no one else could have had access to such detailed information. As a result, he confessed to some of the crimes of his associates that he was aware of.
Zhou Anbang’s testimony, combined with the evidence in the hands of the highest leader, led to many of his opposing faction’s members being imprisoned. They were severely weakened.
The political party opposing the supreme leader was puzzled after their subordinates were arrested, unable to understand how the supreme leader had come to possess evidence of their subordinates’ crimes.
They could never have imagined the involvement and influence of The Dark Division. They simply aimed their spears at the supreme leader.
Seeing the outcome, the supreme leader inwardly sighed, realizing that he had indeed underestimated Situ Xin of the Situ Family. He also began to guard against and sought to win over Situ Xin.
After the affairs of Zhou Anbang and the Murong Family had concluded, Xia Yujie told Situ Xin that the Dragon Society had received a message from an underground organization in Xiangjiang, offering a reward for finding the Lone Wolf.
Xia Yujie and Liu Yuxiang knew that Situ Muli was the Lone Wolf, so upon hearing the news, they hurried over to Situ Xin.
"Master, what do we do now? I have heard about this underground organization and, based on what I know, our Dragon Society doesn’t currently have the strength to compete with them," Liu Yuxiang expressed worryingly. His time spent with Situ Muli had led him to truly accept him in his heart.
"Miss, I think it should be me—" Situ Muli began, deeply touched by Xia Yujie and others’ concern for him. It had been many years since he felt such care from others; it was only after following Situ Xin that he tasted the warmth and affection of family and friends.
Situ Muli’s words were cut off by Situ Xin, "Enough already, each and every one of you is more anxious than the emperor while the eunuchs fret to death!" Situ Xin said, turning to look at the three of them.
Hearing Situ Xin likening them to eunuchs, Liu Yuxiang was taken aback and quickly retorted, "Master, we are not eunuchs."
"Did I say you are eunuchs? Or do you see yourself as one?" Situ Xin joked with Liu Yuxiang before adopting a serious expression again and said, "You don’t need to worry about this; I have plans of my own. Mu Li, you don’t need to think about taking action yourself. With your current appearance, if they find you, you should know what awaits you," concluding, Situ Xin then turned to Xia Yujie and Liu Yuxiang, "It’s not always about fighting with brute force. And who says that if it comes to strength, we can’t match them? You need to have confidence in yourselves. Besides, I’m not prepared for a head-on collision. Now is not the time for that."
Situ Xin was aware of Situ Muli’s organization; it was she who had asked Xia Yujie to investigate it. After reading the investigation report, Situ Xin didn’t take the organization seriously—it was merely more advanced in science, technology, and weaponry than most groups, but even so, she had dealt with the Dragon Society and The Dark Division before.
Moreover, the scientific technology and weaponry of that organization did not impress Situ Xin. The items in her own space far surpassed anything the organization could boast of.
"Then Master, what are you planning to do?" Liu Yuxiang asked curiously after hearing Situ Xin’s words.
"Miss, if there is anything we can help with, please just tell us," Xia Yujie also interjected.
"There’s no need, I can handle this matter alone." Indeed, this was something no one but Situ Xin herself could resolve, nor offer help with.
Taking advantage of the night, Situ Xin cast the Invisibility Spell on herself and Baibai, and rode Baibai to the Prison for Serious Offenders. The prison was filled with inmates sentenced to death but execution was postponed. Among these criminals, Situ Xin found one whose build was similar to Situ Muli’s, knocked him out, and took him away from the prison. Once outside, Situ Xin used the Disguise Technique she learned from the Jade Token to transform the criminal into the likeness of Situ Muli, and after feeding him an elixir she had concocted, the criminal became mute.
Situ Xin also sealed the acupoints in the man’s hands, with a technique to unlock them that, apart from Situ Xin, no one else in the world could perform.
Having done all this, Situ Xin casually discarded the criminal somewhere.
Before long, Situ Xin and the others heard news of the Lone Wolf’s death. Upon hearing this, Xia Yujie and Liu Yuxiang both looked at Situ Muli. Liu Yuxiang even naively looked at Situ Muli and said, "Mu Li, aren’t you right here? How could that organization declare you dead?"
After hearing Liu Yuxiang’s words, Xia Yujie gave him a frustrated tap on the head, "You blockhead, it’s obviously the Miss’s doing."
"Alright, let’s put this matter to rest," Situ Xin said, approaching Situ Muli and looking up at him, "From now on, there is no more Lone Wolf in this world, only Situ Muli." With that, Situ Xin turned and left.
Watching Situ Xin’s retreating figure, Situ Muli clenched his hands tightly and whispered softly, "From now on, there’s no Lone Wolf, only Situ Muli."
Xia Yujie and Liu Yuxiang came over, both extended their fists and lightly tapped Situ Muli’s chest, "Brother, congratulations on your rebirth,"
"Congratulations."
In the blink of an eye, four years had passed, and Situ Xin was already 13 years old, having grown into a tall and graceful young lady.
Situ Xin’s development was faster than other children her age. No, it wasn’t just development; her height had increased more rapidly than her peers. By then, Situ Xin had already reached a height of one meter sixty.
