The study lapsed into an eerie silence, and Hu Lianhai scarcely dared breathe, fearing he would become the scapegoat for this matter.
After a long moment, the middle-aged man slowly exhaled and asked in a deep voice, "Do you know the identity of this man?"
Hu Lianhai shook his head and said, "I don't know, I've never seen him before."
"No matter what, you must find out the background of this person. We absolutely cannot have complications now, understand?"
A fierce glint flashed in the middle-aged man's eyes as he spoke icily, "If it turns out he's from the Sky Alliance or the Rose Society, have someone deal with him in secret, and pin the blame on someone else."
If Lu Tianxing was a pawn of these two underworld forces, then they would maximize the utility of this chess piece, inciting the Rose Society and the Sky Alliance to fight each other. At that time, the Sword Alliance would reap the benefits of their battle.
"Yes, boss, I understand."
