Chapter 2192: Where’s your brother?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
A leader looked at Ye Wanwan with great worry.
Ye Wanwan wasn’t concerned though. She accepted the s.h.i.+p ticket money already, so how could there be no s.h.i.+p?
Not long after the island was set aflame, dozens of s.h.i.+ps appeared in the sea.
s.h.i.+ps from Asura, the Fearless Alliance, and the Nie family thickly dotted the distance.
The guards the Martial Arts Union placed around the island were scattered within several rounds of attacks.
Although the Martial Arts Union didn’t place many guards around the island, they weren’t weak. However, they couldn’t withstand the surprise attack from three strong groups and were completely overwhelmed in terms of numbers alone.
The process went smoother than Ye Wanwan expected.
Every prisoner on this island successfully boarded a s.h.i.+p and escaped from this island.
After returning to the Independent State, they didn’t launch a crusade against the Martial Arts Union though. Everyone was unusually tacit in remaining quiet.
Even the Fearless Alliance didn’t retaliate against the Martial Arts Union in any way and didn’t interrogate them in any manner.
The return of the missing leaders evoked a major ripple in the Independent State and caused Ye Wanwan to become the most frequently discussed topic of every resident’s conversation.
The nefarious President of the Fearless Alliance actually discovered where the leaders were imprisoned and rescued them! This was a hot topic!
As for the Martial Arts Union, they didn’t respond in any way, as though they were ignorant of this matter.
For these returning leaders, their biggest priority was to rebuild their strength in the Independent State and recuperate for a while. No one was foolish enough to condemn the Martial Arts Union as soon as they escaped from the island.
Moreover, none of them had concrete evidence that proved it was the Martial Arts Union who imprisoned them.
…
After returning to the Independent State, Ye Wanwan rested for two days before visiting the Ling residence.
In the Ling residence living room:
An austere elderly man’s gaze landed on Ye Wanwan, affection filling his eyes.
“Worriless, come to Grandpa.”
The elderly man waved his hand at Ye Wanwan.
Ye Wanwan obediently nodded and sat down next to the elderly man.
This elderly man was the patriarch of the Ling family, Ling s.h.i.+chang, and he was Ye Wanwan’s grandfather.
“Worriless, is there any news of your parents?”
Ling s.h.i.+chang asked Ye Wanwan after a long silence.
“No, Grandpa.” Ye Wanwan shook her head.
The Nie family, Asura, and the Fearless Alliance had dispatched a lot of people to search for Patriarch Nie and Madam Nie, but they were still empty-handed.
Ye Wanwan previously thought Patriarch Nie and Madam Nie might’ve been captured to the island, but she didn’t discover any traces of them after entering the island herself.
Hence, Ye Wanwan hypothesized that there was a great possibility her parents were in the hands of the Direct Line.
Of course, this was mere conjecture and wasn’t proved.
“Then the Ling family will also join the search,” Ling s.h.i.+chang said after some time.
Ye Wanwan’s eyes brightened.
The Ling family’s intelligence network was immensely extraordinary. If the Ling family joined…
“Worriless, Grandpa has heard about what happened to you, including your time in China and Lord Asura.” Ling s.h.i.+chang abruptly changed the topic. “Grandpa missed you and your brother greatly these past years, but you should know about the situation with me and your parents…”
Ye Wanwan’s eyes dimmed several degrees at the mention of Nameless Nie.
“Oh right, Worriless, where’s your brother?”
