Hmm?

Chen Yang was stunned!

He never expected the woman would turn around.

But it was really soft!

The woman was also equally stunned! Instantaneously a warm current rushed to her face, her cheeks turned red!

"Die!!"

The woman, embarrassed and angry, raised her hand, channeled her spiritual power, and slapped Chen Yang’s head fiercely.

Chen Yang reacted at this time, quickly let go and countered!

He grabbed the woman’s arm, then with his other hand, he squeezed the woman’s neck, pushing her against the wall!

In the face of Chen Yang’s absolute strength, the woman had no ability to resist at all, and was instantly firmly controlled.

"Speak! Who are you!"

Controlling the woman, Chen Yang loudly questioned.

The woman was extremely embarrassed and furious! At this moment, she wasn’t thinking about her own safety, but had the scene from earlier replaying in her mind!

"I want to kill you," the woman said through gritted teeth.

Seeing the woman’s expression, Chen Yang felt a bit embarrassed, although it wasn’t intentional earlier, it was indeed awkward.

"Are you from the Qiu Alliance?" Seeing the woman remain silent, Chen Yang had to ask actively. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

But the woman still did not respond, only glared at Chen Yang with a murderous look.

Chen Yang had a feeling she should be from the Qiu Alliance.

He wanted to reveal his identity.

But thinking of how special his identity was, if exposed, it would bring too much trouble.

To be on the safe side, he didn’t reveal himself proactively but thought of another way.

After a bit of thinking, he really came up with an idea.

If the woman were from the Qiu Alliance, she must be targeting him because of the blood bat tattoo on his back.

So, he just needed to take off the blood bat tattoo, and her attitude would surely change.

Conversely, if she were from the Qiu Alliance, there wouldn’t be any change.

Thinking of this, Chen Yang immediately tore off the blood bat sticker on his back in front of the woman.

It was just as Chen Yang had expected.

After seeing the blood bat tattoo fall off from Chen Yang’s back, the woman showed a very surprised, unexpected expression.

Chen Yang kept watching her; seeing her expression, Chen Yang could almost confirm that this person was most likely from the Qiu Alliance.

"You, your blood bat tattoo, how could it come off?" The woman asked in surprise after a moment.

Chen Yang chuckled and said, "It was a fake tattoo, of course, it can come off."

Upon hearing Chen Yang say the tattoo was fake, the woman showed a helpless expression.

"I think there’s a misunderstanding between us," Chen Yang said to her calmly.

The woman didn’t speak.

Chen Yang continued to try: "I can clearly tell you that I am not from the Blood Bat Hall. Now can you tell me, are you from the Qiu Alliance?"

"You’re really not from the Blood Bat Hall?" The woman somewhat believed Chen Yang wasn’t, but to be cautious, she still had some doubts.

"Of course not, otherwise, show me a Blood Bat Hall member who can remove the blood bat tattoo from themselves?" Chen Yang replied decisively.

The woman didn’t respond, seemingly accepting Chen Yang’s words.

"So, your fake tattoo is just to lure us in, right?"

The woman wasn’t dumb; through some things, she realized Chen Yang’s ultimate purpose.

"Yes, it was to lure you in, but don’t overthink; I don’t have any hostility towards your Qiu Alliance, just want to inquire about someone."

By now, Chen Yang was over ninety percent sure that the woman was from the Qiu Alliance, so he no longer restrained her and slowly released her.

After detecting that Chen Yang truly had no hostility, her mood softened, and she no longer looked at Chen Yang with the killing intent from before.

"Who are you investigating?" The woman asked, looking at Chen Yang.

Chen Yang didn’t hide it, directly saying, "Chen Tianmin."

The woman showed a slight, noticeable movement of expression upon hearing this name.

But it’s still hard to escape Chen Yang’s eyes.

Because Chen Yang had been watching her all along.

"This person, is he from your Qiu Alliance?" Chen Yang continued, seeing the woman not respond.

The woman remained silent, seemingly confirming it.

Seeing the woman being so cautious and unwilling to say anything, Chen Yang decided not to keep asking and directly said, "Don’t misunderstand, I truly have no hostility towards your organization, just that I and Chen Tianmin are old acquaintances, I’ve come to find him for something, not for anything else."

"But I know your Qiu Alliance is quite special. I don’t request you to take me to him now; how about you deliver something to him for me?"

With that, Chen Yang took out a piece of paper.

On the paper were densely packed writings, this was the formula for nursing Chen Tianmin back to health earlier.

"If you see him, give this to him and also convey the message that I’m at the Provincial Capital’s Lin Tian Xia Hotel, tell him to report my name at the front desk." Chen Yang handed the paper to the woman and gave an address.

In this way, if Uncle sees the note, he will surely know I’ve come to find him.

At that time, he would come to the hotel out of concern.

"Okay, you can go now."

After finishing what he had to say, Chen Yang didn’t intend to keep the woman and directly told her she could leave.

The woman’s mind was quite conflicted at this moment.

Because she didn’t know if Chen Yang could be trusted.

But since she was let go, she naturally wouldn’t linger here any longer.

Without a word, she took the note and left.

"Really cautious, no wonder this Qiu Alliance can exist under the Blood Bat Hall’s nose for so many years, there is a reason."

Chen Yang looked at the direction where the woman disappeared, chuckled, and then didn’t overthink it.

He was very certain now that the woman was from the Qiu Alliance.

And his Uncle was also from the Qiu Alliance; he believed the note would soon reach Chen Tianmin, and Chen Tianmin would definitely come looking for him.

As long as they meet, many issues can be clarified.

Chen Yang left the abandoned building and returned to the original stone market.

It was ten o’clock at night, yet it was still bustling here, with many people coming and going.

And the stall that he’d previously bought raw stones from was very busy because he had cut out top-grade raw stones there today.

Chen Yang took a quick look, then returned to the car.

In the car, Wang Jingman had been waiting for a while.

Seeing Chen Yang return, she quickly asked, "Chen Yang, did you catch up with them?"

"Yes, caught up with them," Chen Yang nodded. "They should be from the Qiu Alliance, but they’re too cautious to say a word."

"Huh? Does that mean you can’t find your Second Uncle?" Wang Jingman said.

"Not necessarily; although they didn’t say anything, I gave them something, and Second Uncle will come looking for us if he sees it," Chen Yang explained.

"Well, did you leave an address?"

"Of course I did."

"Where?"

"Lin Tian Xia Hotel."

...

After dealing with everything, Chen Yang immediately took Wang Jingman to the Lin Tian Xia Hotel in the provincial capital, booking a presidential suite.

This hotel was owned by the Li Family, which is Li Han’s family.

Because it was a chain hotel, the name hadn’t changed and was still called Lin Tian Xia.

When checking in, Chen Yang specifically instructed the front desk to answer truthfully if anyone was looking for him.

Having finished these, Chen Yang then assuredly took Wang Jingman to the hotel room.
