“Okay, I’ll bring Yin Shaohua elsewhere.” Xia Hanjiang nodded.
After a short moment, Xia Hanjiang and Qi Changshen asked, “Bro Bei, what exactly is happening? What was it that went wrong?”
“I’ll let my Lucky G.o.ddess explain that to you! If it were not for her, we would’ve been caught already!” Chen Xiaobei said as he walked to the window and peered outside.
“Ms. Liu, please enlighten us!” Xia Hanjiang and Qi Changshen asked earnestly.
“Mr. Xia said that when Yin Shaohua asked for the keys, Yin Wuqiu looked suspicious. Based on what Mr. Qi said earlier, Yin Shaohua always paid women Spiritual Stones to get them into bed! Since that would be something Yin Wuqiu is used to, so why the suspicion? Well, there might be one plausible explanation! They must have changed the entry to the treasury so that it doesn’t require a key anymore! That’s why when Yin Shaohua asked for the key, Yin Wuqiu realized that something was wrong! He only gave the key to Yin Shaohua so that he could follow him and find out what had happened. If Yin Shaohua comes back, it would mean that we’re all done for!”
Liu Xuanxin’s explanation was very detailed. Even though she was not present at the scene herself, she was able to make very precise deductions.
Xia Hanjiang and Qi Changshen inhaled sharply.
Their plan was flawless on its own, but the reality was like what Liu Xuanxin had said. It dawned on them that they were behind time and their intel was not up to date!
If Liu Xuanxin had not figured it out, they could have all died by now.
Very soon, Xia Hanjiang confirmed that fact saying, “Ms. Liu is right! Yin Wuqiu is trailing behind! This old bird really is treacherous indeed! He wouldn’t even mind harming his own son!”
“Calm down!” Chen Xiaobei ordered. “The plan has failed. What you need to do now is extract as much information as you can form Yin Wuqiu!”
“Yes!” Both Xia Hanjiang and Qi Changshen responded, and quickly proceeded to follow Chen Xiaobei’s instructions.
Liu Xuanxin had once again witnessed Chen Xiaobei’s extraordinary quality.
Had it been someone else’ failed plan, they would have been somehow affected. Even if they did not end up getting angry at themselves and giving up, then they would probably get upset and still mess everything up!
Under the stoic leaders.h.i.+p of Chen Xiaobei however, the unperturbed and calm demeanour of the man gave strength to the ailing team, and he was even able to come up with a solution swiftly thereby salvaging whatever was left of the operation.
In the little forest 100 meters outside of Crimson Ray Pavilion.
Yin Shaohua suddenly changed the direction he was walking.
Yin Wuqiu could not hold it in anymore and suddenly stepped into his son’s path and blocked him.
“What the h.e.l.l are you up to?”
“Dad? Why are you following me? I’m not up to anything!”
Yin Shaohua played dumb.
“You asked me for the key to the treasury! Don’t you know that since we got that item, we’ve changed the treasury’s regular lock and key into a high security magical sigil ?! A key is useless!”
“I…” Yin Shaohua continued his act. “Sigh, I’ve become so forgetful lately. I’ve been so busy that I forgot.”
“How long are you going to keep this up?” Yin Wuqiu barked. “Did that woman drug you? I know my son very well! He would never make such a stupid mistake!”
“No, no. This has nothing to do with Ms. Liu.”
Yin Shaohua shook his head. He mustn’t drag Liu Xuanxin into this.
But Yin Wuqiu did not take the bait. “It doesn’t matter if you tell me or not! I will get that woman and carve her a new face! And then I’ll let the h.o.r.n.i.e.s.t slave f*ck her stupid! I think she’ll be more than happy to reveal the truth then!”
“Someone come to me!!” Yin Wuqiu barked. A group of disciples that were guarding the place at night ran out from the Crimson Ray Pavilion towards them.
“Make this directive known! I want the whole island on lockdown! And I want Liu Xuanxin to be brought to me alive!” Yin Wuqiu commanded.
“Yes!”
The disciples dispersed and went on to notify the rest of Penglai Faction’s disciples.
Xia Hanjiang reported this to Chen Xiaobei.
“Bro Bei! What should we do next? Our one hour of control over Yin Shaohua is almost over!” Xia Hanjing asked in a panic.
“How dare that dog go after my Lucky G.o.ddess! Let’s give him a present! I’m going to make him attend his son’s funeral!”
“Yes!” Xia Hanjiang said.
In the forest.
The blank expression on Yin Shaohua’s face turned into fury. “You shameless b.a.s.t.a.r.d! I know that you have done all kinds of bad in this world! Today, your son is going to pay for everything you’ve done!”
Ziing…
With a loud growl, Yin Shaohua pulled out a dagger and plunged it into his own heart.
“What is happening?!”
Yin Wuqiu’s eyes widened in shock. In them were mixture of shock and disbelief. He was caught completely off-guard.
He exploded like a volcano with a Qi Field so powerful that the entire place was filled with its presence. All the animals around the area had ran for their lives. Clearly, the death of his son had just struck his heart with a huge attack of shock.
“Liu Xuanxin! I want you dead! I want your whole family dead!”
Yin Wuqiu shouted to the heavens. His voice echoed throughout every nook and cranny of the island.
At Star Picking Corner.
They had all heard Yin Wuqiu’s thundering roar.
Xia Hanjiang and Qi Changshen had turned a sickly grey. An Ethereal cultivation elite was an untouchable being to them.
Chen Xiaobei, who had always been much more sangfroid than the ordinary person, was now seen with a frown.
They had just uncovered very valuable information – it was now confirmed that were very valuable treasures h.o.a.rded in th bowels of the treasury!
Sadly, in exchange for that information, Liu Xuanxin had become Yin Quqiu’s target.
Yin Wuqiu believed that it was Liu Xuanxin who caused her son’s death. The outraged and heartbroken Yin Wuqiu would now use the most extreme, most s.a.d.i.s.tic ways to make Liu Xuanxin and her family pay!
The strongest person among Chen Xiaobei’s subordinates was Six Eared Macaque. Even he would not be able to withstand Yin Wuqiu’s Ethereal Cultivation’s overwhelming strength!
This was not the conclusion that Chen Xiaobei would have wanted.
“What are we going to do? It’s okay for me to die. But my grandfather and my brother, and the thousands of Xuanjian Faction disciples… they cannot suffer because of me!” Liu Xuanxin was now in a full-blown panic. She knew better than anyone else how powerful their enemy was, and knew that she had hit an impa.s.se. There was no way she was getting out of this alive!
“Don’t be afriad!” Chen Xiaobei said through gritted teeth. “This is all because of me. As long as there’s still a breath in my body, I promise I will not let anything happen to any of you!”
