“Beidou immediately shut up: ‘No, no, no, I’m very busy! Very busy!’
After escaping, Beidou curiously scratched her head and asked, ‘Laoqi, who is this vinegar factory owner? How come I’ve never heard of a beautiful vinegar factory owner in the Independent State?’
‘Maybe the Alliance Leader met her by chance,’ Qixing pondered for a moment and then calmly replied, ‘Having someone to divert the Alliance Leader’s attention might not be a bad thing.’
Beidou thought about it and found it reasonable. As long as she didn’t provoke troublesome figures, everything should be fine.
This was probably just something Fengjie came up with on a whim and forgot about a few days later…
…
Ever since capturing the elder Jin from the Martial Arts Alliance Guild, Ye Wanyan noticed that there were many spies from the Martial Arts Alliance Guild lurking around Fearless Alliance.
She originally thought that once the storm passed, she would thoroughly interrogate Elder Jin. However, judging from the current situation, she couldn’t predict when this turmoil would end. Ye Wanyan never expected that the Martial Arts Alliance Guild would attach such importance to Elder Jin. They remained relentless even now. It was surprising to see the Martial Arts Alliance Guild’s sense of righteousness, which might even rival Fearless Alliance’s.
Witnessing the Martial Arts Alliance Guild’s persistence, Ye Wanyan couldn’t help but sigh. It’s no wonder the Martial Arts Alliance Guild could dominate the Independent State and become its balance. There was a reason behind it. If it were any other force, they probably wouldn’t bother with the life or death of a single elder.
The next day, while Ye Wanyan was dozing off in her office, she was suddenly awakened by Beidou.
“Fengjie!” Beidou and Qixing burst into the office without knocking.
Beidou’s loud voice instantly startled Ye Wanyan awake.
“What’s going on?” Ye Wanyan looked at Beidou and Qixing and asked.
“Fengjie, something’s happened,” Qixing said.
“Yes, yes, Fengjie, something big happened!” Beidou quickly added.
“Can you calm down and explain what happened? Did the sky fall?” Ye Wanyan glanced at Beidou with a hint of annoyance.
“The sky practically fell, it’s no different!” Beidou gasped for breath.
Hearing Beidou’s words, Ye Wanyan turned to Qixing, hoping for a more reliable response.
However, Qixing nodded in agreement with Beidou, seemingly supporting her statement.
“Fengjie, the Martial Arts Alliance Guild found our base where we were hiding Elder Cangjin…” After a moment, Qixing explained.
Upon hearing Qixing’s words, Ye Wanyan was instantly dumbfounded.
“You mean the Martial Arts Alliance Guild found our base and caught us red-handed?!” Ye Wanyan frowned deeply.
“Yes, Fengjie, that’s exactly what happened!” Beidou said with a mournful face.
Ye Wanyan: “…”
This was not just the sky falling, it was a catastrophe!
Considering the reputation and power of the Martial Arts Alliance Guild in the Independent State, Fearless Alliance being caught red-handed and also kidnapping one of their elders would have unimaginable consequences!
Ye Wanyan knew that when the Martial Arts Alliance Guild came looking for her last time, asking Fearless Alliance to confront Asura, she secretly played both sides. She took the money and resources from the Martial Arts Alliance Guild while secretly going against them, causing trouble at Asura’s headquarters.
Though the Martial Arts Alliance Guild was angry, they couldn’t do much about it as she had done it on Asura’s turf. They could only swallow their anger.
But this time, it was different. Fearless Alliance had raided the Martial Arts Alliance Guild’s resources on a large scale and even kidnapped one of their elders…”
