“‘The main branch,'” Ling Shichang replied almost without hesitation.
“The main branch is so powerful… Then how were they driven out of Independent State by the collateral branches back then?” Ye Wanwan found it hard to understand.
“During the big battle between the main branch and the collateral branches back then, luck also played a part for the collateral branches. Moreover, the main branch now has a significant ally in the form of Gou Zasui…” Ling Shichang explained.
Mentioning Gou Zasui, Ye Wanwan’s expression twitched slightly.
Indeed, Yishui Han seemed to have a deep-seated grudge against those ancient clans.
“Grandpa, what’s the deal with Gou Zasui, the main branch, and the collateral branches?” Ye Wanwan continued to ask.
“I don’t know about that. After all, isn’t he Gou Zasui’s disciple? You can ask him about it,” Ling Shichang suggested.
…
After having lunch with Ling Shichang, Ye Wanwan returned to the Fearless Alliance.
These past few days, Tangtang had been in the Fearless Alliance, so she could ask him.
At this moment, inside the Fearless Alliance’s office, Qixing and Beidou stood around Wen Ziran, especially Beidou, who appeared quite excited.
“Brother Ziran, you’re finally back! Without you, the Fearless Alliance is like a tiger without wings or an eagle without eyes…” Beidou chattered on while staring at Wen Ziran.
As soon as he finished speaking, Qixing shot Beidou a glance.
An eagle without eyes…
He really could chat.
Wen Ziran, on the other hand, smiled slightly and didn’t pay much attention to Beidou’s description.
“What are you all talking about?”
Ye Wanwan entered the room.
“Sister Feng, you’re back…”
Seeing Ye Wanwan, the others approached her.
“Little Feng, during my absence, you managed the Fearless Alliance very well,” Wen Ziran smiled at Ye Wanwan.
Back then, the Fearless Alliance relied completely on two people: Bai Feng, the Fearless Alliance’s leader, and Wen Ziran. Without one of them, relying on the elders and hall masters was clearly not feasible.
Among the entire Fearless Alliance, only the Grand Elder and Qixing were somewhat reliable in this regard, and this was not up for debate.
Before Ye Wanwan could say anything, Wen Ziran suddenly spoke, “The main branch’s people came this morning.”
“What?!”
As Wen Ziran’s words fell, Ye Wanwan was left bewildered.
People from the main branch came to the Fearless Alliance?
“Yeah, Sister Feng, an old man came in the morning, and he’s from the main branch. If it weren’t for his old age and frailty, I would’ve kicked him to the ground,” Beidou said with a disdainful snort.
Ye Wanwan: “…”
“Brother Ziran, what did the main branch’s people come to the Fearless Alliance for?” Ye Wanwan asked Wen Ziran.
“While you were away, I didn’t talk to him much and just sent him away, but he’ll probably come back soon,” Wen Ziran replied.
“Alright, I understand,” Ye Wanwan nodded.
She was curious about why the main branch’s people had come.
After chatting with Wen Ziran and the others for a while, Ye Wanwan found Tangtang.
Fearless Alliance, 13th floor
At this moment, Tangtang was lying on Da Bai’s belly, and on his left, Birus lowered his head, constantly yawning.
“Mom.”
Seeing Ye Wanwan entering, the originally drowsy Tangtang instantly became lively.
“Tangtang, if you don’t read more books, Mom will send you to school,” Ye Wanwan said to Tangtang.
“Tangtang reads books,” Tangtang explained.
“Tangtang, you probably don’t want to end up uneducated like your Uncle Beidou in the future, right?” Ye Wanwan asked.
Tangtang: “…”
“By the way, Tangtang… Mom has a question for you,” Ye Wanwan picked up Tangtang and sat on the sofa.
“Mom, what is it?” Tangtang asked curiously.
“Well, about your master Yishui Han, do you know anything?”
