Should they inform them now?


Thinking about those mythical animals, old man Ning felt a burn inhis heart. He just might have better odds putting his trust in his old friendsthan in the School of Divine Condor.


“Master, we don’t do the negotiations. We let Mr. Lin and the lotto deal with the Cheng’s, then we ask for a share from them. That ought to bethe best solution!”


“You are right!” Old man Ning nodded, “We should place our bet onold man Lin and the lot rather than in School of Divine Condor. Not to mentionthat if we can get mythical animals from both sides, that would be evenbetter!”


“Right, master. Let’s notify Mr. Lin and the lot as quickly aspossible. Once the folks from School of Divine Condor are here, there might becomplications.”


“Right! Let me send them a message immediately and have them comeover as quickly as possible!”


The two took actions immediately after their discussion.


Speaking of, the deans and instructors of the School of DivineCondor gathered around discussing the news from their students -- that amythical spring was found at the foothill of Mt. Wan’an in Qing’an Province.More importantly, this spring water can raise mythical beasts. This news ha.s.stunned everyone!


Was it true? Was it fake? Everybody has their own opinion!


Some said it could be real. Others were skeptical. How could amythical spring be possible? Even the School of Divine Condor has just amythical vein, not mythical spring.


After a full-day of discussion, the dean has made the decision ofsending out one instructor with ten students to Qing’an Province to investigateit further before sending more people.


If it was fake, it would be good experience; and if it was real,all the more better.


There’s no such thing as completely insulated wall, and you can’twrap fire1 with paper. A news this big was leaked in no time.


The news spread like wild fire through then entire Dafeng. Stillsome believed the news to be true and others were skeptical of it.


Regardless, a mythical spring would be priceless. Most people sentout helpers to seek out this mythicalspring in Ching’an Province and ascertain the truth.


All of a sudden, the path to Ching’an was filled with people fromall walks of life, all going after this mythical spring.


Even the masters and elders of Cheng’s residing in the Emperor’sCity reacted the same way as everybody else upon hearing the news – feelingsuspicious and believing it at the same time. After all, the rumor must havestarted from something.


A man in this thirties looked very surprised when he heard thisnews. He remembered clearly that his older brother, who was banished from thefamily, settled down in Willow Village in Qing’an Province.


As far as he was concerned, Willow Village was a small village. Hehad never heard of any mythical spring before. He was certain this news wasmade up by someone.


Listening to the family discussion, he watched on with a sneer andan antic.i.p.ation of calamity!


Perhaps others didn’t noticed his look, but one of the eldersnoticed and frowned.


After the meeting, he called the man into his study. Settling downon his chair, he asked, “Cheng Bihua, you know about this?”


“Dad, know about what?” asked Cheng Bihua, confused.
