On their way back to the camp, Ye Lingyue told Emperor's Slaughter that the mastermind behind the assassins was Long Baobao's Uncle Long.
Both of them also agreed that no matter what reason Housekeeper Huang had, concealing the difficulty of the task was unacceptable. They immediately decided to sever this relationship.
Housekeeper Huang panicked and hurriedly explained,
"Gentlemen, I did not intend to deceive you. It's just that this involves the Long Family's scandal. Moreover, I never expected that the Fourth Young Master would be so malicious to actually hire so many assassins."
"Grandpa Huang, what are you talking about? Are you saying that all those bad people were sent by Uncle Long? That can't be. Uncle Long is so kind to me at home. He personally initiated me into Artifact Refining; I don't believe he would harm me." Long Baobao shook his head and clutched tightly at Housekeeper Huang's sleeve, utterly unwilling to believe his words.
