Marquess Ning looked at Zhan Beixiao in disdain and wondered why Zhan Beiye was not his biological grandson. If he could exchange bloodlines, he would definitely do it without hesitation. He was willing to give anything to do it!
“They came after all.”
Zhan Beiye had heard the news as soon as Marquess Ning arrived in Duoya City.
It was not that he did not want to break Zhan Beixiao’s wing completely or cause the Zhanling Emperor to lose Marquess Ning, his right-hand man. He even wanted to kill his sworn enemy!
But the timing was not right.
Besides the fact that they had just lost Duoya City and the people were still unsettled, Marquess Ning’s cultivation level did not make him an easy opponent.
He took a deep breath and finally said, “Keep an eye on him.”
The subordinate looked up at Zhan Beiye and asked, “We’re just keeping an eye on him, Your Highness?”
Given Marquess Ning’s cultivation level, monitoring him secretly or openly would make no difference, right?
Just keeping an eye on him like this felt too trivial.
“If we don’t keep an eye on him, are we going to let him cause trouble in the city?” Zhan Beiye narrowed his cold eyes and retorted.
“Uhm…” The subordinate was stunned by his master’s words.
That’s right. What could they do if they did not keep an eye on him?
Although Marquess Nings cultivation level was very high, he was the only one. He could not harm Duoya City, let alone get close to Zhan Beiye, who was protected by everyone.
Of course, he harbored thoughts of killing Marquess Ning, but that was all they were.
Killing Marquess Ning was impossible anyway. With his cultivation level, he could escape even if they surrounded him. However, this only made their relationship even more strained.
“There’s no need to be too careful. I just want him to know that my people are watching him,” Zhan Beiye instructed.
Since he dared to enter Duoya City, there was no need to be too polite. He had to bite off a piece of Marquess Ning’s flesh, right?
Marquess Ning must have understood upon entering Duoya City that leaving peacefully was not possible.
“Yes, Your Highness,” the subordinate replied and left.
“Marquess Ning, you’re really a tough nut to crack! One tough cookie,” Zhan Beiye said through gritted teeth.
An hour later, he arrived at Qian Jiyun’s courtyard. He sat down indignantly and slammed his hand on the table.
“Why do you say that?” An Jiuyue, who was refining pills, looked up at him.
“Uhm…” Zhan Beiye was truly stunned when he heard her voice.
He looked at Qian Jiyun, who was beside An Jiuyue. He really wanted to ask why An Jiuyue was refining medicinal pills every time he came.
Was there a time when she was not refining medicinal pills?
It was not that he had never met a medicine refiner. Refining two to three batches a day was already too much
But how many batches would An Jiuyue refine in a day? He probably couldn’t even count them, right?
“It’s nothing. I was just saying,” he said with a pout.
“That’s alright.” Qian Jiyun glanced at him indifferently before looking at An
Jiuyue.
“After all, no one would compare themselves to dogs,” he said.
Zhan Beiye was surprised.
When did he compare himself to a dog? What was this?
However, he did say that Marquess Ning was a tough nut to crack, right? This statement was really…
