Chapter 288 Negotiating Cooperation
"What should I do? You go, I don't dare."
"Humph, if you don't dare, then how could I dare? He's the master's most beloved nephew."
"Then what should I do? But I really don't dare. Besides, the master's heart meridian is severely damaged and he is in seclusion. He is already full of anger. If I go there, it will be regarded as a way to vent my anger! How about letting Boss An Yi go?"
"What's up?!"
Suddenly, An Yi's slightly cold voice sounded, but in the eyes of the secret guards it was the only ray of light in the darkness.
"Boss, a brother just sent me the news that Young Master Helian's life token has been broken, and we are worried about who to let go to report to the master."
An Yi's eyes were filled with astonishment, but he didn't know what he was thinking of. His eyes flickered slightly, hiding the strangeness in his eyes, "What? Helian Jing's life token is broken?! When did it happen?"
"Boss, I heard from the brothers over there that this happened several days ago, but for some reason, the fate plate was delayed and only broke today. What should we do now? Boss, if the master finds out, he will definitely destroy us."
An Yi frowned slightly, "What's the point of saying this now! Immediately send someone to investigate the people and things that Young Master Helian has come into contact with in the past few days. Go quickly."
"Yes Yes Yes."
half an hour later
An Yi arrived at the forbidden area and said, "Report to the master."
A figure not far away loomed, and in an instant, endless pressure poured down, "Didn't I say that you are not allowed to disturb me in any way?"
"Master, this is an urgent matter. The brothers at the fate tablet office just sent me news that Master Helian's fate tablet has been broken."
The air was stagnant for a moment.
In an instant, endless air currents surged at a high speed, as if to overturn the entire world, and the area outside the forbidden area also began to tremble.
"Who is it?! Who on earth is it?!"
"Please calm down, master." An Yi immediately knelt down and spoke earnestly.
"Master, this will be detrimental to your recovery. Master, I have just sent someone to investigate. The people who were with Master Helian the entire time were Zhao Zhao, Zhou Cheng, and Zhou Muye, but now only Zhou Muye is still alive."
In an instant, the forbidden area became quiet.
A moment later, the deep and murderous voice sounded again.
"The Zhou family! It's actually the Zhou family! Send someone to closely follow Zhou Muye. If there's any movement, inform me immediately. No mistakes!"
"Yes, I obey."
An Yi turned around and raised his head, the darkness in his eyes revealed without any concealment. He didn't know what he was thinking about, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly.
……
"Oh, Master, there were so many people just now, and I didn't tell you that a few days ago, when you were doing the Heavenly Stone Trial, the new student that Senior Brother Bai Zhou mentioned earlier came to report. Guess what, that person is actually..."
Jiang Xu suddenly paused, not knowing what he was thinking about. He carefully checked his surroundings, and when he didn't detect any outsider's presence, he finally dared to say, "That person is actually Qi Huan."
Seeing that Ye Wanqing's eyes didn't show the shock he had expected, Jiang Xu's eyes flickered slightly and he tilted his head, "Master, why aren't you shocked at all? Did you already know this?"
Ye Wanqing casually picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip. Her expression seemed somewhat calm and composed. "Well, I can understand a little bit."
Jiang Xu's expression paused for a moment, then he immediately reacted, "Master, don't you find it strange? A young lady from an ordinary power in the Sky Continent has now become a favored lady in the Sky Spirit Realm."
"Although she's an illegitimate daughter, I heard that the benefits given to Qi Huan by Old Man Lin are no less than those given to the two legitimate daughters. Master, do you think the Lin family is up to something?"
Ye Wanqing raised an eyebrow and casually opened the Ningyu in her hand. "Whether it's a conspiracy or not, we'll know if we just ask."
"Ask?!" Jiang Xu's eyes flickered. "Master, what if they're in cahoots? You can't judge a person by their appearance, but you can always be unaware of their true nature. Furthermore, Qi Huan was able to escape the battle on the Cang Qiong Continent safely and come to the Tianling Realm. He must have some other conspiracy. Master, you must be careful."
Ye Wanqing's lips curled slightly, with a strange look in her eyes. "Be careful, it's too late. She's already here."
"what?"
A look of surprise flashed across Jiang Xu's face, and in an instant, a black figure came quietly.
The speed was so fast that even Jiang Xu didn't notice it.
Wen Anqin looked at the "man" in front of her, and her heart moved, "Long time no see, Miss Ye."
The expression in Ye Wanqing's eyes remained unchanged, and the corners of her lips gradually rose. "Did this lady recognize the wrong person? Who is Miss Ye? I don't know."
Wen Anqin also nodded and smiled, his expression full of amusement, "Miss Ye, the Soul-Enriching Jue belongs to my mother, and I can also sense the aura of the Soul-Enriching Jue. Now it recognizes you as its master, so of course I know."
Ye Wanqing nodded slightly, tapping the tabletop lightly with her folding fan. "I see."
"Then I wonder what brings Miss Wen here so late at night?"
Wen Anqin subconsciously looked at Jiang Xu who was standing beside him. Jiang Xu's eyes were slightly choked, and he looked a little lost. "Then Master, I will leave first."
"No need, Miss Wen, you just need to say it."
Jiang Xu's eyes lit up, and after hearing Ye Wanqing's permission, he sat up straight.
Wen Anqin's eyes flickered slightly, and there was something strange in his eyes, "This is what I think..."
an hour later
"Since Miss Wen is so sincere, and we have a common enemy, I won't say much. I'll just wait for good news from Miss Wen. Then, let's have a happy cooperation."
Ye Wanqing immediately stood up, picked up the tea on the table and handed it to Wen Anqin who was sitting opposite her.
Wen Anqin gladly accepted it. Looking at the "man" in front of him, the desire in his heart rose again. "Happy cooperation."
After Wen Anqin left, Jiang Xu pondered for a long time, his eyes filled with ambiguity. "Master, are you really planning to cooperate with her? Is it possible that she was instigated by her father and is deliberately deceiving you? After all, they are father and daughter."
Ye Wanqing's expression remained unchanged, a hint of leisure in her face. "When employing people, trust them; when you doubt them, don't employ them. Besides, the family represented by the Soul-Enriching Jue won't be so easily deceived."
