Chapter 85
Chapter 85: Need to Pay Extra
Wang Qian’s heart was still full of rage. He glared coldly at the silent Tian Han and Guo Ming En beside him and said: “Did you not have a lot to say before? Why are you mute now? Hmm, Senior Brother Tian? Senior Brother Guo?”
The two who had been called looked at each other and saw regret in each other’s eyes.
They had not expected Yu Zhao’s attitude toward them to be so tough and unyielding, leaving them no face at all.
Now, not only had they failed to get revenge, they had also completely lost face.
Guo Ming En forced himself to speak and said: “Junior Brother Wang Qian, Yu Zhao is narrow-minded and sharp-tongued. Even with Master Qing Yan as her teacher, she will not achieve anything great in the future.”
Tian Han followed along to persuade him and said: “What Senior Brother Guo said is right. Junior Brother Wang Qian, you must not let a petty person make you truly angry. She is not worth it.”
Wang Qian glared at them fiercely, his gaze dark and vicious, and said: “No. You two may be able to swallow this, but I cannot. Since Yu Zhao dared to provoke me, she has to pay the price.”
The two of them turned pale with fright.
They hurried to advise him again. One of them said: “Junior Brother Wang Qian, Yu Zhao is a disciple of Five Elements Dao Sect, and she has a Divine Transformation Cultivator as her teacher. You must not act on impulse.”
The other quickly added: “Yes, yes, Junior Brother Wang Qian. In two years it will be the Cultivation World Grand Tournament. You can teach her a lesson then. It will not be too late.”
Wang Qian gave a cold smile and said: “Do you think I would be stupid enough to act myself?”
Wang Qian was not arrogant enough to think that he could fight against Five Elements Dao Sect.
He already had a perfect idea in his heart. He only needed Tian Han and Guo Ming En to cooperate. Otherwise, he would not bother to tell them his plan.
Tian Han and Guo Ming En both secretly let out a sigh of relief.
They had truly been afraid that Wang Qian would lose his mind and fight Yu Zhao to the death.
Tian Han’s eyes turned as he thought of something. He spoke in a testing tone and said: “Junior Brother Wang Qian clearly already has a plan. Is there any place you need my help? As your Senior Brother, I will not refuse.”
Guo Ming En was a step slower but also stepped forward to show his loyalty to Wang Qian.
Wang Qian pulled out a smile and said: “Since my two Senior Brothers have spoken up on your own, it would not be right for me to refuse your kindness. There really are some places where I need help from you two Senior Brothers…”
At first, the corners of Tian Han and Guo Ming En’s mouths still carried a smile, but the more they listened, the worse they felt.
Wang Qian’s meaning was actually that they would put in the money and effort, while he stayed hidden behind the scenes to watch the show.
If things were exposed, the two of them would become the main culprits.
They both said softly: “This…”
Tian Han and Guo Ming En had always been quick thinkers. Before Wang Qian even finished explaining everything, they had already realized how dangerous it was. Their faces could not help showing resistance.
Wang Qian’s face sank and he said: “What is it? Are you two Senior Brothers planning not to help me with this? If it were not for you, how would I have ended up clashing with Yu Zhao? Senior Brothers, do not cross the river and pull up the bridge.”
The threat in Wang Qian’s tone was clear.
Among the three of them, he was the one in the higher position.
Besides, what he said was not wrong. Tian Han and Guo Ming En had thought that if they pushed him to clash with Yu Zhao, they could stay out of it themselves. That was thinking too simply.
He would not let the two of them easily pull themselves out of this.
Tian Han and Guo Ming En could tell that Wang Qian’s attitude was firm. They both gave a bitter smile and finally nodded.
Wang Qian said with satisfaction: “Very good. I will tell you what to do. Myriad Treasures Pavilion has an intelligence network called Shadow Pavilion…”
Blackwater City Dark Pavilion.
Seeker Daoist glanced once at the black-clothed person who was wrapped up tightly in the room, leaving only a pair of eyes showing. Then he lowered his head to look at the commission that person had handed in, and the corner of his eye twitched a little.
That person’s attempt to cover things up while fooling themselves really opened his eyes.
At a time like this, to send a mission to Shadow Pavilion to hunt down Yu Zhao, who else could it be but the people from Greenwood Sect?
But he had to admit that the people from Greenwood Sect were very bold. They actually dared to issue a Kill Order on someone from Five Elements Dao Sect. This was the first time he had seen something like that.
From the moment Tian Han stepped into Shadow Pavilion, he had felt very uneasy. When Shadow Pavilion stayed silent for a long time, he became even more anxious and unconsciously wanted to leave the room.
At that moment, a Wooden Plaque drifted out from the hole in the door and successfully stopped him.
Tian Han grabbed the Wooden Plaque in a hurry and looked at it, then he was struck dumb.
On the Wooden Plaque were three big words: “Pay more money.”
Tian Han hesitated.
He could understand why Shadow Pavilion wanted more money.
Probably only desperadoes who cared only about money and not about their lives would dare to hunt down a Personal Disciple of Five Elements Dao Sect.
But Wang Qian had already emptied out his family savings to buy the Fourth-grade Pill Recipe. The Spirit Stones for the mission had been pooled together by Tian Han and Guo Ming En.
Now that Shadow Pavilion wanted more money, those Spirit Stones would naturally still have to come from Tian Han and Guo Ming En.
Tian Han was not very willing, but when he thought of Wang Qian’s threats, he still followed Shadow Pavilion’s demand and paid more. When he left, even his back figure showed a strong sense of resentment.
Seeker Daoist looked at the Spirit Stones placed on the tray, and the corner of his mouth lifted in a meaningful smile.
Shadow Pavilion’s information network was well informed. Long before Tian Han arrived, they had already investigated Yu Zhao’s situation clearly.
Yu Zhao’s identity as a Personal Disciple no longer counted. Now she was only an Inner Disciple of Five Elements Dao Sect with no teacher.
Because of this, Shadow Pavilion dared to accept the mission that Tian Han posted.
Otherwise, no one would risk offending the number one person in the Cultivation World for a few Spirit Stones. That would not be worth it at all.
As for whether they would offend Five Elements Dao Sect or not…
A dark light flashed in Seeker Daoist’s eyes.
Shadow Pavilion was only helping to post the mission. If Five Elements Dao Sect wanted to blame someone, they should go look for trouble with Greenwood Sect.
Hu, hu.
Fang Cheng Lang woke up with a start, breathing hard.
A drop of sweat slid slowly down from his temple.
He weakly raised his hand to cover his face.
He had had another nightmare.
Fang Cheng Lang sat on the bed for a while. Then he got up, left the room, and walked to the back courtyard of the inn.
The night was as cool as water.
He looked up at the moon above his head, his expression unclear and dark.
Suddenly, a faint sound of footsteps came from behind him.
He did not look back. His eyes stared into the empty air in front of him.
Cui Jue called out softly: “First Senior Brother.”
Cui Jue looked at Fang Cheng Lang’s empty eyes and could not help feeling worried.
Ever since they left Five Elements Dao Sect, First Senior Brother’s condition had grown worse day by day. He had seen it with his own eyes and was anxious in his heart.
He had just happened to see First Senior Brother’s figure pass by the window, so he had followed after him.
Fang Cheng Lang gave a slight nod. That counted as a response.
Cui Jue could not help asking: “First Senior Brother, can you tell me what exactly happened? Do you know what you are doing right now?”
Cui Jue was not someone who liked to meddle in other people’s business.
But every person on Lone Moon Peak was very important to him.
He could not simply stand by and watch First Senior Brother keep sinking like this. He wanted to help First Senior Brother open the lock in his heart.
Fang Cheng Lang still did not speak. His eyes only grew a little deeper.
Cui Jue called out again, his usually cold face showing a bit of worry, and said: “First Senior Brother.”
Fang Cheng Lang finally turned his head and looked at him.
Under Fang Cheng Lang’s gaze, Cui Jue’s whole body trembled. For no clear reason, a feeling of fear rose in his heart.
