The one leading them was none other than the former second-in-command of the Red Lotus Society, Bai Pu's new slave... Zhang Gu!
At that time, Bai Pu had destroyed the hideout of the Red Lotus Society but left Zhang Gu. Later, when Zhang Gu met the leader of the Red Lotus Society, he naturally faced a round of questioning.
