Chapter 600: Chapter 535: Stirring Up Trouble Chapter 600: Chapter 535: Stirring Up Trouble “Brilliant, brilliant indeed, well done Gu Family!”
In a garden pavilion,
the Clan Leader of the Decaron Family, having sensed the fiery clouds in the sky earlier, had also ordered an investigation.
After receiving specific firsthand information and learning that Yue Yun, a core mber of the Yue Family, had been dealt with on the street, a smile unconsciously appeared on his face.
Yue Yun was almost certainly going to beco a Catastrophe Level, though there would be differences in strength!
The decrease in future core mbers of the Yue Family was truly good news for the Decaron Family.
“Ha ha ha, last ti’s incident with Feng Te was most likely their doing too, well done, they’ve really avenged us ferociously.”
“Uncle, could this incident possibly lead to suspicion falling on us?”
Standing at the pavilion’s entrance was an agile figure with wavy long hair—a beautiful person—now speaking with so concern.
“Yue Yun is quite strong.
To take him down nearly instantaneously without causing much disturbance is sothing I’m not confident in achieving.
...
Only the ancestor acting could manage it, and since the ancestor is recently in the Abyss, it naturally has nothing to do with us.”
Decaron’s Clan Leader was completely unconcerned, because it wasn’t us who did it!
Consider this, we are still the victims.
Feng Te died inexplicably.
But just then, a gentle voice ca from outside,
“Mr.
Haote requests to see you.”
Hearing this voice, the Decaron Clan Leader raised an eyebrow,
“Old Huang?
Co in directly, what brings you here?
Any news on Feng Te’s case?”
As he finished speaking, a plainly dressed figure, who seed to appear out of nowhere, was now in the pavilion.
He was the Inspector assigned to the location of the Decaron Family, a Catastrophe Level Inspector from the Second Ring!
Both the Decaron Family and the Yue and Gu Families were roughly equal; so had settled in the Third Ring and others in the Second, each with its benefits and trade-offs.
The Yue Family could even position their own people as Inspectors, making their moves more overt, whereas being located in the Second Ring was ‘safer’ and ‘less troubleso’ for the Decaron Family.
Of course, that’s only in theory.
Feng Te’s death was inexplicable.
Feng Te’s assassination was not only a disgrace for the Decaron Family but also embarrassing for Inspector Huang Yan.
Hence, he took it upon himself to investigate.
“The trail has gone cold, it’s probably one of those families, but without evidence, there’s not much I can do,”
Huang Yan said, glancing at Haote’s expression.
“Oh, I see.
So you’re suggesting our involvent with that dead guy Yue Yun?”
Haote spoke discontentedly.
“It wasn’t the Gu Family’s doing; they’re actually not capable of pulling it off right now.”
Huang Yan sighed lightly.
“It’s likely the Yue Family behind Feng Te’s incident; maybe you’ve found sothing yourselves.”
He paused,
“In fact, it’s no big deal, without evidence, and frankly, I don’t quite approve of their actions.”
Hearing this, Haote, who was already displeased, found it hard to restrain himself.
“Wait a minute, it really wasn’t us.
The Yue Family isn’t going to bla this on us, are they?”
Haote felt increasingly cornered; he had initially been quite pleased.
But now, eating hot pot and singing songs, and the bla falls on our heads?
What did he an by no evidence, no problem!
Since when did our level of operations care about evidence?
At most, it ant not provoking the Bright Star Council, just not pursuing it officially!
The key issue was that with Yue Yun dead, the Yue Family was definitely going to seek frantic revenge!
Feng Te was also a World Breaker, but such newly initiated individuals were not rare among families of similar status.
With the family’s inherited Talents and accumulated Skills, following the proper steps, if the Talent wasn’t too poor, reaching a considerable percent at one’s mature peak wasn’t low.
Ordinary World Breakers indeed counted as the main force, as each was capable of independently managing the vast affairs of their family; however, if one died, that was pretty much it.
There was always a chance for revenge, but they wouldn’t dwell on it without doing anything else.
The focus of the family was still on developing itself, and revenge was rely an opportunistic endeavor.
The death of a World Breaker wasn’t sufficient to influence the family’s decisions.
Everything had to prioritize benefits!
But Yue Yun was different.
The death of such a future Catastrophe Level could be said to have struck at the foundations!
Even though the Decaron family and the Yue Family were inherently at odds and would sche against each other, a direct confrontation was sothing he felt exceedingly disadvantageous.
The key point was that it was unjust!
It truly wasn’t us!
“I know it wasn’t you, but it’s useless; the Yue Family won’t see it that way.
You saw the situation with the old man from the Yue Family before.
Just be careful, and make sure you control the scale so I’m not put in a difficult position.”
Huang Yan didn’t argue with Haute, displaying an expression that said, ‘You’re right,’ but he still gave him a reminder.
After all, this was his jurisdiction, and he didn’t want anything too problematic to arise.
Last ti Feng Te died in his area, and it indeed made him feel quite embarrassed.
“Really, it wasn’t…”
“Ah yes, yes, I know.”
Huang Yan patted Haute on the shoulder, showing a smile that said ‘I understand.’
“Our ancestors are all in the Abyss!”
“Indeed, it was nicely arranged, no, I an it was originally unrelated to you, no need to clarify further, I just wanted to remind you.
I’m leaving now.”
Huang Yan also felt a bit sentintal and impressed.
Just like when he ca, disappearing without anyone noticing, Haute Decaron couldn’t help but feel bewildered.
Our ancestor is in the Abyss!
And you think it’s us who planned this perfectly?
Ridiculous!
Is this the effect of having a filter?
“It wasn’t the Gu Family?
Tsk…”
For a while, Haute Decaron began to feel a headache coming on as his previous joy evaporated.
It did seem like only our two families have the motive now.
It’s possible other forces might want to stir things up and fish in troubled waters, but the risk is too great; the cost-effectiveness isn’t high for others.
If it truly wasn’t the Gu Family, he even doubted if it was his own family doing it!
“Could the ancestor have secretly arranged sothing without telling …”
Haute was sowhat uncertain.
“No, it could also be the Gu Family acting innocent!
The ancestor had no reason not to tell , so if it’s not us, it must be the Gu Family…”
…
“The talents and abilities of the Yue Family, do they lean towards fire?
Also, they possess a strong rebirth ability, which works well with ‘Weather Mage.’ The total amount of abilities Yue Yun could access seed even greater than Teng Lianghong…”
Tao Yu felt quite satisfied after successfully creating Shadow Soldiers from Yue Yun.
Teng Lianghong’s power was slightly stronger than Yue Yun’s, but because the Hunter Path inherently had a higher affinity for fire, the power he could borrow and amplify was also higher.
“If most of the Yue Family is like this, then they really suit .”
With a wave of Tao Yu’s hand, the Shadow Soldier that Yue Yun had turned into gradually lted into the shadows.
Now, this was rely a beginning.
The Gu Family, Decaron Family, and Yue Family might experience all sorts of covert collisions because of this incident.
It would be quite normal for so people to go missing.
Perhaps the Gu Family, mourning their ancestor’s death, might act more restrained.
But the Decaron Family and the Yue Family could be considered a mix of new hatreds and old grievances.
The Yue Family pinning bla on themselves unprovoked, and the Decaron Family initially coming forward to apply pressure made it easy to deal with them without any psychological barriers.
With these two families facing off, plus an Assassin’s League stirring up trouble, without proper intelligence reconciliation, who’s to know who caused the losses…
