Chapter 795 - 795 271 When Does the Enmity End Two in One
Chapter 795: Chapter 271: When Does the Enmity End? [Two in One] Chapter 795: Chapter 271: When Does the Enmity End? [Two in One] Ximen Qianqiu was in a state of distress.
The resources he had at hand were borrowed, and if his injury could be healed smoothly, his strength and cultivation would return to its peak. He may even have further opportunities for advancement, and naturally, he wouldn’t have to worry about paying off his debts.
But now, with each passing day, the interest accumulated more and more. The total was not a small sum.
But what could be done when the divine doctor fell ill?
It was said that the doctor fell ill because of the intense effort he put into saving Great Marshal Wu Tiejun from the assassination attempt. The doctor had exhausted himself to the point of vomiting blood and fainting, a sight witnessed by many. When he would recover, no one knew for sure.
This caused people to talk and the matter became well-known.
Ximen Qianqiu sat in an inn, heaving sighs of anxiety.
During this time, the Ximen Clan was busy. On one hand, they were hunting down the murderer who had killed Ximen Huai Dao.
On the other hand, they had to deal with Ximen Qianqiu’s anger and put great effort into investigating the spies from various countries.
After all, it was these spies who had caused the divine doctor’s serious injury and left Ximen Qianqiu to wait in line without any chance of treatment.
They could not let this grievance go unanswered.
Ximen Huai De and Ximen Huai Rou were so busy during the day that they were almost at their wits’ end.
Moreover, both of them couldn’t shake off a sense of looming crisis.
It felt like there were many eyes watching them in secret.
If they let their guard down, their enemies would strike.
No matter where they went, they were always surrounded by guards. They didn’t dare to drop their guard for a moment, for fear that they might overlook something and suffer a big loss.
They knew that the murderer who had killed Ximen Huai Dao in secret would not stop there.
The intelligence they had collected clearly indicated: The Ximen Clan had once massacred their whole clan, and such hatred was not easily quelled with the death of merely one person!
At least, killing only Ximen Huai Dao was certainly not the end for their enemies!
In other words, they, as brothers, were also probably on the hit list!
Even a fool could guess that.
One day.
The two brothers visited the Tiannan branch of the Beast Taming Sect for the third time.
“Chief He, the names you provided are not those of the targets we are looking for.”
ximen Huai De sat in the high seat with a serious face, and said, “I suspect that Chief He is just brushing us off, disregarding our sincerity.”
He Xiangming looked wronged and said softly, “In the past three years, the names of all the customers who have bought spirit beasts are in your hands now, without any omission. Sirs, don’t you know that my action greatly leaks the commercial secrets of our sect? If this is considered as brushing off, I really don’t know what else I can do to prove my sincerity!”
Ximen Huai De said indifferently, “Chief He, you are joking. There is still one person whose information we didn’t get.”
“Who?”
“The Beast Taming Master, Ling Yunduan.”
He Xiangming’s face showed a hint of difficulty.
The Ximen Clan’s intention was completely exposed by this statement.
They obviously wanted to make acquaintance with Beast Taming Master Ling under the pretext of investigating the murderer. If they could get some young beasts along the way, they could break the standoff with the Dongfang Clan.
To start from He Xiangming’s side was undoubtedly the best and easiest way in.
Because among the few people who knew the whereabouts of the Beast Taming Master, He Xiangming was the easiest to handle.
He Xiangming frowned and said, “Master Ling is unpredictable and elusive like a dragon. Even if I want to see him, it’s not easy. To be honest, instead of me seeking him, it’s more like I wait for his call… For you, sirs, to bluntly say that you want to see Master Ling, it’s really beyond my ability. This is not something I can decide.”
Ximen Huai De said lightly, “We just hope that Chief He can introduce us and express the goodwill of the Ximen Clan. We will naturally respect the Master’s opinion. To see or not to see depends on the Master’s mood.”
Seeing Ximen Huai De say this, He Xiangming could only reply, “I will convey what Mr. Ximen has said, but whether the Master wants to see you or not is not something I can control.”
“As long as Chief He is willing to convey a message, it’s good enough. Our brothers, and even the entire Ximen Clan, are very grateful.”
Ximen Huai De said, “In fact, we just came here to discuss this matter with Chief He this time. We don’t have any other intentions. After all, Lord He, in his Heavenly Clothes, is in Yuezhou, and our Ximen Clan doesn’t want, and doesn’t intend to be hostile to him.”
He Xiangming’s pupil shrank slightly, she said, “What are you talking about, sir? Since I have promised, I will certainly do my best.”
“Good, we thank Chief He for going through the trouble.”
Ximen Huai De then took out a space ring and said, “This is a small gift from our Ximen Clan to the Master, just a token of our respect. This doesn’t involve any other matters. Please, Chief He, pass it on.”
“Okay.”
He Xiangming really didn’t want to take this task, but the situation forced her hand. In the end, she had to reluctantly accept this commission!
…
Two days passed and He Xiangming did nothing. It wasn’t until the third day that she made an excuse to go out.
As she had done before, she first contacted Zhu Weiran and revealed everything about the mission that the two Ximen brothers had given her, asking about Feng Yin’s intent.
Zhu Weiran’s eyes lit up upon hearing this, but he quickly suppressed the excitement in his heart and said he would go back and discuss it with Feng Yin and provide a reply as soon as possible.
