Chapter 273: The Capital Incident and the Dark Hall

"Hahaha, I'm just teasing you."

Zhu Ruxue couldn't help laughing when she saw Su Jiang's expression.

"Even if I really had that idea, your mother would definitely not agree."

"After all, who would be willing to stick their precious daughter on a piece of cow dung?"

Hearing this, Su Jiang's face became more dissatisfied.

Who is the cow dung?

Auntie, if you keep saying this, I will turn against you!

I'll go back and cook with Rourou!

"Okay, let's get back to the topic. Let me tell you about the dark hall first."

The expression on Su Jiang's face immediately became obedient, sitting straight, looking like he was listening attentively.

Zhu Ruxue's face showed a look of reminiscence, and she spoke slowly in a crisp voice.

"......All this started from the Beijing Incident of that year."

"During the Beijing Incident of that year, the appearance of Ding Qiming's gene fluid caused a shock to all the major families. They all believed that the existence of the gene fluid could bring about a qualitative change in their families."

"At that time, the only dominant family in Beijing, the Qin family, also sensed a sense of crisis and believed that the appearance of the gene fluid would shake their dominant family status."

"So that day, all the families in Beijing attacked the capital recklessly, and they were completely bloodthirsty. Several other dominant families also took the opportunity to attack the Qin family."

"At that time, the Wei family was one of the main families that besieged the Qin family."

Speaking of this, Zhu Ruxue showed a mocking look on her face and sighed.

The so-called gene fluid is just an excuse.

Maybe some people really put their minds on the gene fluid, but there are definitely not many.

What those families need is just an opportunity.

An opportunity for the major families to join forces and bring down the Qin family.

As for the gene fluid, that was something that should be considered after the Qin family was destroyed.

"That battle lasted for five days and five nights in the capital. The entire capital was a river of blood, and countless innocent people died because of it."

"And the final result of the Beijing incident was that the Qin family, the dominant family, was completely destroyed, and other families were also seriously injured. The incomplete version of the gene fluid was also stolen by the Wei family."

"Xiang Qingtian led the Inspection Bureau and tried his best to prevent the outbreak of the war and save the lives of innocent people in that battle, but it was still a drop in the bucket."

"In the end, Xiang Qingtian was also ambushed and then imprisoned in the Wei family. The Inspection Bureau has never recovered since then, and people have left and the tea has been cold."

Hearing this, Su Jiang frowned slightly and asked, "Why didn't they just kill Xiang Qingtian?"

"Because Xiang Qingtian is more valuable alive than dead."

Zhu Ruxue explained, "If Xiang Qingtian died, many old agents of the Inspectorate would risk their lives to avenge him."

"In order to avoid these troubles, the Wei family did not choose to kill Xiang Qingtian, but just watched the Inspectorate gradually wither away."

"Over time, many people's original intentions were wiped out, they withdrew from the Inspectorate, and returned to their hometowns to create their own family forces."

"I see." Su Jiang nodded, and at this moment he thought of many people.

Xie Kangsheng should be one of those people.

An Xingchang is probably the same, otherwise he would not have run to save Xiang Qingtian.

"Then what does all this have to do with the Dark Hall?"

"The Dark Hall only appeared after the incident in the capital."

Zhu Ruxue said slowly: "In that battle, there was a man who was elusive, decisive and self-proclaimed to be the best killer in the world."

"Even the head of the Qin family was assassinated by him, and he almost succeeded."

"Even so, after being discovered by the Qin family, he was still able to escape unscathed and killed many people in the Qin family. Once this matter was spread, it instantly shook the entire capital."

Hearing such a description, Su Jiang's pupils suddenly shook.

"That killer... is the ghost?"

"Smart!"

Zhu Ruxue nodded in appreciation, and then said: "That man is indeed the later ghost."

"It's just that there was no killer list at that time, and there was no title of ghost."

"What I'm going to tell you next is the real origin of the Dark Hall and the title of ghost."

Hearing this, Su Jiang's eyes instantly became more serious.

This is also what he wants to know.

Zhu Ruxue took a deep breath and stared at Su Jiang's eyes.

"Su Jiang, from the beginning, the ghost is actually two people."

"Ghost... two people?"

Su Jiang frowned in confusion, what does this mean?

But soon, Zhu Ruxue explained to him.

"When the Beijing incident happened, it is said that the man died in a siege."

"However, just when everyone thought he was dead, the ghost appeared."

"The same terrifying sense of oppression, the same assassination that made the major families terrified, made everyone believe that this ghost was the man at the beginning."

"It was at this time that your mother came to me."

Zhu Ruxue's eyes were filled with memories, and she said: "She said that she hoped I could establish an organization as a ghost."

"It just so happened that An Xingchang at that time wanted to train Mingjie and let him expand the An family in Jiangdu."

"I was also bored and had nothing to do, so I agreed."

"At first I was worried that if I used the name of a ghost to build my power, the real ghost would come to me."

"But later I realized that the real ghost probably had some deal with your mother."

"Because, whenever I needed to show my assassination ability, the real ghost would act for me and assassinate some people."

"Over time, they regarded me as the real ghost."

After the words fell, Su Jiang opened his mouth and was a little stunned.

My mother!

My great mother!

How awesome are you?

If I had known that you two were so awesome, what system would I need?

Wouldn't I be able to walk sideways in Jiangdu?

Uh... Although I can walk sideways in Jiangdu now.

But getting something for nothing and getting something through hard work are two different feelings!

He wanted something for nothing more!

"Some time ago, your mother called me and said that you had arrived in Yannan, and asked me if I wanted to give you the Dark Hall to play with."

"I just wanted to test you, so there was that fake news."

"But I didn't expect that your performance was beyond my expectations. You didn't play by the rules at all."

"Now it seems that the Dark Hall will never be given to you. If you control the Dark Hall, you don't know when it will be gone."

Zhu Ruxue smiled: "It's better to keep the Dark Hall in my hands. It's easier to control."
