Chapter 225 Arrangement
The masked man chuckled, a hint of cunning in his voice: "This is no problem for me, I have my own way. But that's not the point. The point is, do you want to know the current identities of these remnants of the previous dynasty and their plans?"
Su Yinyin stared sharply at the masked man, her gaze seemingly able to pierce his soul: "You'd better not try anything funny, just tell me!"
The masked man cleared his throat, his voice ringing out clearly in the quiet room: "These people are now scattered throughout the court, some of them already holding high positions."
They have been secretly plotting to restore the previous dynasty, and the recent upheavals in the palace are very likely their doing.
Su Yi snorted coldly, her snort as sharp as a winter wind: "What evidence do you have? Without proof, why should we believe you?"
The masked man calmly pulled a secret letter from his pocket, his movements slow and deliberate: "This is their secret communication letter; you'll understand as soon as you see it."
Su Yinyin took the secret letter and examined it carefully. Her expression grew increasingly solemn, as if shrouded in a gloomy atmosphere.
Su Yi leaned closer and asked, "Yinyin, how is it?"
Su Yinyin said, "It seems that what the masked man said was true."
The first man asked, "So, what should we do next?"
Just then, the masked man suddenly flashed and rushed towards the door like a ghost, his speed astonishing.
Su Yi reacted quickly, leaping to block the masked man's path with agile and nimble movements: "Trying to run? Not so easy!"
The masked man laughed and said, "I was just testing your reaction. Now that the deal is done, I will naturally help you to the end."
Su Yinyin said to Su Yi and Lao Yi, "Take him down."
Su Yinyin and Su Yi, Lao Yi naturally didn't believe this person's nonsense.
Regardless of whether he is a friend or foe, they will not align themselves with this person.
What if I get used against me?
Furthermore, they could easily enter the villa. Su Yinyin and the others wouldn't allow such a danger to exist.
Su Yi and Lao Yi immediately took action and engaged in a fierce battle with the masked man.
In an instant, the room was filled with howling wind and a flurry of martial arts moves.
Clearly, the masked man's martial arts skills were not weak either.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to enter the Su residence so easily.
Su Yinyin always believed that their team's martial arts skills surpassed those of the Three Kingdoms.
No one can shake them.
It seems Su Yinyin was mistaken. It truly proves the saying: there are always people more capable than you, and mountains beyond mountains!
After observing calmly for a moment, Su Yinyin realized that although the masked man was powerful.
But in the end, he couldn't outdo the first one.
Su Yinyin said, "Be careful, let's finish this quickly!"
Lao Yi understood the meaning behind Su Yinyin's words.
It allows him to reveal his true strength.
Upon hearing this, Lao Yi's inner strength suddenly erupted, surging like a volcanic eruption.
The attacks became increasingly fierce, and the masked man gradually found it difficult to defend himself.
"Hmph, surrender now!" the old man roared, his palm strike like thunder, aimed straight at the masked man's face, the sound deafening.
The masked man was unable to dodge in time and was struck by Lao Yi's palm. He coughed up blood and collapsed to the ground like a withered flower.
"Tie him up," Su Yinyin said, her voice carrying an undeniable authority.
Su Yi and Lao Yi quickly tied the masked man up tightly, the ropes wrapping around his body like venomous snakes.
Su Yinyin frowned in thought: "This person appeared suddenly, it seems he's in cahoots with the shadowy figures in the palace, right?"
Su Yi said, "Yinyin, have we been targeted all along?"
The old man said, "It's possible that they can keep us completely unaware. The strength of this group far exceeds our imagination."
Su Yinyin's eyes turned cold, like a thousand-year-old glacier: "Strengthen defenses and prepare to meet the enemy!"
"Speak, who sent you?" Su Yi shouted, his voice booming like a great bell.
The masked man clenched his teeth and remained silent, as if his mouth were locked with an iron lock.
Su Yinyin stepped forward. "You think we can't do anything if you don't tell us? Jin, confiscate everything on him, just in case he commits suicide."
After searching for a while, Lao Yi found another token in the masked man's arms.
Su Yinyin took the token and examined it carefully, her expression focused and solemn: "This token... seems to be the symbol of some organization."
"Hmph, no matter who's behind you, since you dared to come, don't think you can leave easily," Su Yi said fiercely. He then removed the masked man's face covering.
Su Yinyin and the other two carefully examined the masked man, searching their memories.
However, none of the three could find any information related to this person in their memories.
This person has an ordinary appearance. He would easily blend into a crowd and not attract much attention.
There's nothing special about him that would make his appearance memorable at first glance.
"It seems your master is very well hidden," Su Yinyin said, her voice filled with doubt and vigilance.
The masked man suddenly sneered, "Even if you catch me, it won't matter. Your end is near!"
Su Yinyin's gaze turned cold, shooting towards the masked man like a sharp arrow: "Stop talking nonsense! Confess honestly, and perhaps I can spare your life. Otherwise, this princess will make you wish you were dead!"
The masked man remained silent, as stubborn as a rock.
Su Yi said, "Yinyin, why don't we lock him up first and then interrogate him?"
Su Yinyin nodded: "Alright, Jin, make sure his martial arts are completely crippled before taking him away and keeping him under strict guard."
After receiving the order, Lao Yi disabled the masked man's martial arts skills and took him to a designated cell in the villa.
"Brother, please take some men to check for any loopholes in the mansion, and also send a signal to everyone to return. I'll redo the formation."
The "them" that Su Yinyin was referring to were the third brother and others who were away on business.
The formation that had been set up earlier had been destroyed by this masked man.
Therefore, Su Yinyin needs to switch to a more advanced formation in time.
Su nodded to indicate that she understood. Following Su Yinyin's instructions, she went to investigate.
Su Yinyin decided to set up two formations in the Su residence. Su Yinyin held her breath and began to set up the formations.
She was completely focused, and fine beads of sweat gradually appeared on her forehead, but her hands moved without any disorder, as if she were sculpting a fine work of art.
Just as she was about to complete the first formation, Su Yi rushed over and saw Su Yinyin setting up the formation.
Su Yinyin glanced at Su Yi, and from Su Yi's expression, she could tell that he was somewhat anxious.
Su Yinyin's heart tightened, and she quickened her movements, which were as fast as lightning.
Su Yi anxiously stood by, gripping his sword tightly, protecting Su Yinyin at all times, his expression as tense as a guard protecting a precious treasure.
On the street less than 500 meters from the Su residence, a man in white was standing.
The man in white stared intently in the direction of the Su residence, his gaze deep and mysterious, lost in thought.
