Chapter 167
After listening to Wei Wu's guess, Zhu Biao lowered his head and thought for a while before speaking.
"Xiao Wu, do you find it strange that the White Lotus Cult suddenly appeared, killed Li Feng, and now wants to kill you?"
Wei Wu was stunned for a moment, then he understood what Zhu Biao meant.
"So, Brother Zhu suspects that the White Lotus Sect is the one hiding behind the Lu family?"
"I wasn't sure before, but now I'm pretty sure the White Lotus Sect is one of them."
Having said that, Zhu Biao sighed lightly.
"As for whether there is another one, I can't find any clues yet, but I believe there must be one."
"After Lu's death, I did not pursue the Lu family. In fact, I was deliberately misleading them and made them think that the smallpox incident had not been exposed."
"The incident of falling into the lake is strange. The Lu family must be suspicious, but if they want to understand the inside story, they can only focus on Li Feng."
"I originally just wanted to find out Li Feng's identity through the Lu family, but I didn't expect that the White Lotus Sect would be involved as well."
When Zhu Biao said this, Wei Wu also followed up with a sentence.
"If the White Lotus Cult only wanted to kill Li Feng, it would be fine, but they chose to come after me. This is a problem."
"The only people in the entire Ming Dynasty who have conflicts with me are Li Shanchang and the Lu family. There is no need to doubt Li Shanchang and he can be eliminated directly."
"Then only the Lu family is left. Because I was the one who ruined the smallpox incident, I am the one they hate the most."
When Wei Wu spoke, there was a hint of doubt in his eyes.
"But there's still a problem here. The Lu family isn't stupid. Will they really do something that doesn't benefit them?"
"To be frank, the White Lotus Sect is just a bunch of rabble-rousers playing tricks on others. Is the Lu family crazy? What's the point of colluding with them?"
At this time, Zhu Biao also expressed his thoughts.
"That's why I suspect there's another person behind this. The White Lotus Sect was probably just pushed out to take the blame."
Just as Wei Wu said, the White Lotus Sect was just a mob.
They can only pretend to be mysterious and deceive the ignorant people, playing tricks and strategies, but they are not cut out for that.
Therefore, even if the White Lotus Sect emerged, Zhu Biao would only think that they were being used.
But no matter what, since the White Lotus Sect has emerged in this matter, he must take action.
Zhu Biao had kept Li Feng around before in order to follow the clues and try to find out who was behind the scenes.
Now that Li Feng is dead and the clues are gone, there is no need for Zhu Biao to hide his butcher knife.
Seeing the murderous intent flashing in Zhu Biao's eyes, Wei Wu immediately guessed what he was going to do.
"Brother Zhu, you, are you not going to keep the Lu family and investigate the person behind this?"
Zhu Biao nodded, the coldness in his eyes becoming even stronger.
"They deserve to die. The White Lotus Sect still dares to kill you. We must thoroughly investigate their strongholds and eradicate them all!"
Hearing this, Wei Wu smiled faintly, turned his head and looked at Zhu Biao with intent eyes.
"Well, we'll deal with the White Lotus Sect after we find out, but can you let me handle the Jiangnan Lu family myself?"
When Zhu Biao heard Wei Wu say this, he was overwhelmed.
It's not that he doesn't believe Wei Wu has the ability to solve this problem.
Judging from the methods Wei Wu has demonstrated so far, there is a high probability that there will be no problem.
But there is still a risk, and it is not small. In this case, how could he watch Wei Wu take the risk?
Therefore, when faced with Wei Wu's request, Zhu Biao's first reaction was to dissuade him.
"Xiao Wu, I understand that you're angry, but I'd rather you blame me than take the risk yourself."
"and…"
Zhu Biao wanted to say something, but Wei Wu suddenly reached out and interrupted him.
"Brother Zhu, I think you misunderstood. I don't have the energy to travel all the way from the capital to Suzhou to kill someone."
"What I mean is that I sent my guards to Suzhou to deal with the Lu family, just to give them some practice."
"After all, when the Ming Dynasty sends troops to suppress the Japanese pirates, I plan to take them with me to the battlefield."
