Chapter 1034: What? The Trail Went Cold?

He looked at Young Master Long meaningfully.
Young Master Long’s expression darkened.
He was right. Jun Lin Hall was truly an eyesore to many, especially the Long family. They had painstakingly established themselves as the top aristocratic family for many years. How could they accept the fact that someone else was about to overtake them?
His father had been eyeing Jun Lin Hall for the past few years, but he had always been hesitant.
He hated his father’s indecisiveness the most. His weak mentality allowed Jun Lin Hall to develop to its current state.
Now, he even backed the son of a concubine to become the young lord. He was even more muddle-headed in this matter!
“Alright. Send someone to inform me when you attack.”
With that, he stood up and flicked his sleeve at Qian Liuguang. He had reached an agreement with him.
If the Flame Fox was as good as Qian Liuguang had described, he could send some people to deal with Jun Lin Hall. He would wait for Qian Jiyun to fall and take the Flame Fox for himself.
However…
While he did not stop walking away, he did not trust Qian Liuguang.
Qian Liuguang must have his reasons for being so eager to deal with Jun Lin Hall. He knew he could not ask about his true intentions, so he did not.
But that did not mean he was not curious. Naturally, he had to be even more wary of Qian Liuguang in the future.
Behind him, Qian Liuguang chuckled as he watched Young Master Long leave.
He had taken care of one, and it was time to deal with the other aristocratic families. They were easy to handle. He could use the Long family as a stepping stone and reveal some of the valuable things in Jun Lin Hall.
“Have you investigated thoroughly?”
In Qian Jiyun’s study in Jun Lin Hall, Yan Feng and MO Aotian stood talking to him.
Upon hearing Qian Jiyun’s question, they looked up at each other and shook their heads in unison. “Master, we really couldn’t find anything.”
They could investigate the ident.i.ties of the sacrificial warriors and the aristocratic families behind them, but they could not find out who was the real mastermind behind the people who had been causing trouble for Jun Lin Hall.
“At first, I was suspicious of Master Ling, but later it was proven not to be him, and then the trail went cold,” MO Aotian said, a little embarra.s.sed
“Did the trail go cold, or were the previous leads merely your speculations in the first place?”
An Jiuyue looked up and asked them before lowering her head to play with the alchemical materials in her hand.
Qian Jiyun had ordered people to send her a lot of alchemical materials. She was familiarizing herself with them and wondering when she could start practicing alchemy to benefit everyone.
However, she could not take it anymore when she heard what they said.
What? The trail went cold? It was more like they had not found any clues at all!
“Uhm!” MO Aotian was stunned by her words, and his face burned with embarra.s.sment.
Indeed, the leads from before were fake. Master Ling was not behind this at all. His previous a.s.sumption was also wrong. Master Ling did not even know that his master was the Demon Heart at that time. Why would he cause trouble in Jun Lin Hall for no reason?
Hence, it was hard to tell. Investigate this? It was not like they could not find anything either.
“You’re right, Madam. It was just our speculation. It doesn’t count..”
