But, thinking about it, I felt sowhat relieved. Liu Ting is Chen Tianlong’s junior sister; they grew up together. We’ve all noticed long ago that there’s sothing between them.
To everyone’s surprise, Lin Wushuang wasn’t jealous because she knew whatever she had now was entrusted by Wu ngting. She didn’t have the right to decide anything for Chen Tianlong, as long as he was happy, it was enough.
However, Chen Tianlong didn’t express that kind of feeling. He only saw Liu Ting as a junior sister and was determined to care for and look after her for the rest of his life, no matter what path she took in the future.
After chatting for a while, Chen Tianlong went back to his room, and the four young ladies continued their conversation, gradually forgetting the sadness of the situation.
Chen Tianlong lay on the bed, contemplating everything that had recently happened. The sudden gathering of people from the five major sects probably wasn’t just about attacking the Assassin Group.
According to the situation reported by Xu Wei from the Hao Family, Hao Shuai controls the Black Alliance and seems to have connections with the Celestial Pill Sect. Mo Yun ntioned that Hao Shuai was quite familiar with Chen Hai, the senior apprentice of the Celestial Pill Sect, and the patriarch of the Hao Family, Hao Dahai, had visited various major sects.
This suggests that there is a bigger plot at play. Hao Shuai must be scheming sothing significant, and this major event should involve the Black Alliance, various major sects, and the Celestial Pill Sect.
Chen Tianlong doesn’t believe Hao Shuai has the ability to deal with the Celestial Pill Sect.
Could it be... that sothing has happened to the Black Alliance?
Black Alliance Headquarters.
The Red-eyed Eagle called her close friend Lin Xiaoting over, saying she had sothing important to discuss. Lin Xiaoting didn’t dare to delay and hurried over to the Black Alliance president’s hall.
Accompanied by Niu Xiaosan, the third in command of the Black Alliance, the two of them entered a room.
After the three of them sat down, Lin Xiaoting asked curiously, "Hong, what did you want Xiaoniu and to co over for?"
The Red-eyed Eagle closed the doors and windows and whispered, "Let Xiaoniu talk about it."
At this point, Niu Xiaosan nodded and said, "Ladies, Thunder Tiger has begun gathering n and seems to be preparing to rebel. I heard he’s made arrangents with the eight major sects of Huaxia, possibly attempting to seize power. What do you think?"
"What?" Lin Xiaoting was shocked upon hearing this. She never imagined Thunder Tiger could be so bold. Although he controlled thirty percent of the military power, the main force was still in the hands of the Red-eyed Eagle. Didn’t he realize he’d die quickly doing this?
"Hong, we should imdiately get rid of Thunder Tiger. I’ve disliked him for a long ti," Lin Xiaoting candidly said.
"Haha, Xiaoting, you’re a bit naive. Without evidence, how can I get rid of him? Besides, if he’s indeed colluding with the eight major sects of Huaxia, wouldn’t getting rid of him now give them an excuse? After all, Thunder Tiger is from the Fire Domain Qilin Clan of Huaxia. If they summon Huaxia’s experts to attack us in urgency, we’d be dood," the Red-eyed Eagle analyzed.
"What should we do then?" Lin Xiaoting sincerely didn’t understand. She initially thought about destroying the Black Alliance, but rumors said that the Assassin Group had encountered a disaster, and the ones who attacked were people from the Celestial Pill Sect and various major sects.
Now hearing about Thunder Tiger’s rebellion reminded her of what her master Ye Feng had said. If there were changes within the Black Alliance, she should alter her plans, not be stubborn, and wait for instructions.
Therefore, without her master’s orders, she couldn’t act rashly. Her master was so clever, even if sothing happened, he would find a way to let her know what to do next.
She was waiting!
The Red-eyed Eagle’s face turned a little cold, saying, "Don’t worry, Xue Kong is coming back. This guy has tricky ideas. He’ll be here tomorrow, and then we can discuss counterasures. I refuse to believe, with seventy percent of the military power in my hands, that Thunder Tiger would dare to rebel."
"Alright." For so reason, ntioning Xue Kong quickly reminded Lin Xiaoting of another person, and that person was Chen Tianlong.
"Achoo~"
Chen Tianlong sneezed, got up from the bed, and said, "Who’s thinking about now?"
Just then, his phone rang. It was close to evening, who could be calling him?
He glanced at it; it was an unfamiliar number. However, Chen Tianlong had lately beco very sensitive to unfamiliar numbers. Given his recent experiences, it seed that unfamiliar numbers were always from people he knew.
"Hello, who is this?" Chen Tianlong cautiously asked.
"Chen Tianlong? This is Lin Xiaoting, from the Black Alliance." Lin Xiaoting wasn’t sure if Chen Tianlong could still rember her, especially considering the fact that it was said Chen Tianlong was surrounded by beautiful won, enjoying enviable fortunes.
"Oh? What does Miss Lin want with ?" Upon hearing this, Chen Tianlong asked directly.
There was so animosity between the people of the Black Alliance and the Assassin Group. Chen Tianlong couldn’t be casually friendly with people of the Black Alliance right after his master’s death.
"I heard that the eight major sects of Huaxia are preparing to unite against the Black Alliance, and it’s been said that Ye Feng of the Assassin Group is already dead. Is this true?" Lin Xiaoting felt sad, wondering if Ye Feng had ever told Chen Tianlong about her true identity.
"Second senior sister, you already know, don’t you? It was the senior brother who betrayed the Assassin Group," Chen Tianlong directly revealed, just as he wanted to test Lin Xiaoting, seeing her still so cautious, he simply laid it bare.
"Ah? Chen Tianlong, you knew?" Lin Xiaoting blushed instantly because although they had known each other for so long, she had always kept it a secret, which was sowhat embarrassing.
"Yes." Chen Tianlong was unhurried, as if he had expected it all along, "By the way, second senior sister, the master said to cancel the action against the Black Alliance and focus on the Celestial Pill Sect. Everything was stirred up by the Celestial Pill Sect, and this ti the master’s death was thanks to the Third Elder of the Celestial Pill Sect."
"Whew... so that’s it, I must destroy the Celestial Pill Sect myself."
"Whether you can escape the Black Alliance is still uncertain. If I’m not mistaken, the eight major sects are preparing to move against the Black Alliance, so I advise you to escape soon, or you won’t even save your life," Chen Tianlong cautioned. With the addition of that guy Hao Shuai, the eight major sects seed quite strong; otherwise, with the strength of the Black Alliance, it could still be held under control, and the Black Alliance’s army was in the hundreds of thousands.
No matter what, those few hundred people from the eight major sects couldn’t really stir up a storm.
However, an inside-outside collaboration would be different.
"I can’t leave. President Red-eyed Eagle is a good person. Over the years, she has always donated to those charitable organizations, saving many innocent children. I originally infiltrated the Black Alliance with the intention to act, but by chance, I saw Red-eyed Eagle’s benevolent side and couldn’t bring myself to do it," Lin Xiaoting explained.
"For anyone to stand in the world, they must show their thorny side to protect themselves, let alone soone like the Red-eyed Eagle, in the high-ranking position of Black Alliance president. Killing a few people from Huaxia is quite normal, but I’ve never seen her kill innocent civilians," Lin Xiaoting said.
