My Father Is Definitely Possessed

Chapter 572 - 265: Hai Dongsheng Finds Out! (Part 3)

Li Hengsheng, who was hiding not far away, felt something was amiss upon seeing the scroll.

Could the portrait on that scroll be me?

Li Hengsheng had a strong intuition.

And at this moment, Hai Dongsheng also opened the scroll.

When he saw the portrait on the scroll, Hai Dongsheng’s eyes widened, and his breathing became heavy!

"Hahaha!"

"Li Yun, this time I want to see how you can escape from my grasp!"

"So it really is you!"

On Hai Dongsheng’s scroll, there was indeed a portrait of Li Hengsheng.

From a distance, Li Hengsheng could see his portrait on that scroll.

Although it was only seventy to eighty percent similar, any discerning eye could tell it was him.

"Damn it!"

Li Hengsheng’s heart trembled harshly.

If Hai Dongsheng were to return alive to Ghost City, he would be doomed.

Who could resist the temptation of a Painting Immortal’s Painting Treasure?

If Hai Dongsheng went back and reported that he was Li Hengsheng to the City Lord, the City Lord would definitely capture him and take him to Celestial Sea City for a reward!

Thinking of this terrifying possibility, murderous intent welled up in Li Hengsheng’s heart.

Both Hai Dongsheng and this Blood Ghost Race individual in front must die.

Both were of the Innate realm. If he used his Sun and Moon Divine Body, he should be able to kill them before they could escape.

With this thought in mind, Li Hengsheng’s hand gently rested on the Immortal-Extinguishing Spear.

Ready to strike at any moment.

"Alright, the transaction is complete." After checking the silver notes worth 300,000 taels in his hand, the Blood Ghost Race expert prepared to leave.

"Alright."

Hai Dongsheng felt that his expenditure of 300,000 taels was well worth it.

If he told the City Lord this secret, the benefits he would gain would far exceed what 300,000 taels could buy.

Li Hengsheng was already prepared to make his move and had also planned how to carry it out.

However, just as Li Hengsheng was about to act, he heard a rumbling sound from afar. In the next moment, numerous Ghost Race soldiers surrounded Hai Dongsheng and the Blood Ghost.

Li Hengsheng was baffled by the scene. What was happening?

So Li Hengsheng quickly ducked down to observe the situation further.

Hai Dongsheng was also dumbfounded until he saw a carriage slowly approaching. There was an elderly man of formidable strength sitting in yellow robes. Hai Dongsheng recognized this man, having seen him at the City Lord’s Mansion before; he seemed to be someone around the Governor.

So, was the Governor inside the carriage?

"Governor, sir." Hai Dongsheng quickly greeted respectfully.

"Hai Dongsheng."

The voice of the Governor came from within: "As a member of Ghost City, you dared to collude with the Blood Ghost Race of Iron Blood City and sell information. I caught you red-handed. What do you have to say for yourself?"

"What?"

Hai Dongsheng was startled by the accusation and quickly stepped up to say, "Governor, sir, I have been wronged! I did not sell information; I had a reason for meeting with the people of Iron Blood City. I was buying a piece of information from them."

"You think I’ll believe you?"

The Governor’s voice came from the carriage.

"Governor, sir, it is true!" Hai Dongsheng, seeing the predatory glances around him, knew that if he didn’t explain himself clearly, his life might end here today. So, he quickly said, "Governor, sir, I have crucial information. I was planning to report it to you upon returning to the city. But since I see you here, it must be fate."

"Oh?" The Governor seemed intrigued: "What crucial information do you have to tell me?"

"Well..." Hai Dongsheng glanced around, then said, "This information is very important. I can only tell you, Governor, alone."

"Very well, come up and speak."

The Governor instructed.

"Yes, sir!"

Hai Dongsheng’s eyes lit up with excitement. Even if he didn’t get to inform the City Lord immediately, reporting it to the Governor would surely earn him significant rewards.

Li Hengsheng watched this scene with a heart full of despair.

Doomed.

The more people who found out, the more dangerous it became for him.

Hai Dongsheng boarded the carriage and saw a calm young man sitting inside.

"Speak."

The young man said with his eyes closed, apparently resting.

"Governor, sir, Li Yun is actually Li Hengsheng." Hai Dongsheng whispered carefully.

"Hmm?" The young man opened his eyes: "You say Li Yun is Li Hengsheng? What evidence do you have?"

"This is the evidence." Hai Dongsheng handed the scroll in his hand to the Governor and smiled, "I had suspected Li Yun was Li Hengsheng, but I had no proof. So I contacted someone from Iron Blood City to obtain a portrait of Li Hengsheng."

"After seeing this portrait, I was convinced that Li Yun is indeed Li Hengsheng. Moreover, this painting reveals another issue — there’s a mole in the City Lord’s Mansion, swapping portraits of Li Hengsheng. I suspect there are accomplices of Li Hengsheng within the City Lord’s Mansion!"

Hai Dongsheng revealed his suspicions.

The Governor opened the scroll handed over by Hai Dongsheng, seeing a young man whose appearance bore an eighty percent resemblance to Li Hengsheng.

"Indeed, it looks much like Li Yun."

The Governor nodded in agreement.

"It’s not just a resemblance; it’s the same person!" Hai Dongsheng said excitedly, "Realm Master Cangyuan is frantically searching for Li Hengsheng’s whereabouts. If you, Governor, hand over Li Hengsheng, you’ll be rewarded with a Painting Immortal Level Treasure by Realm Master Cangyuan!"
