Chapter 1990: Chapter 1990: Did you see anything?
“Protecting the Young Sect Master is not an issue for him; it’s just that he has so opinions about the lady.”
“Why must a woman from a respectable family ddle in the affairs of the Sect? During Young Sect Master Yikun’s ti, her interference was tolerable, but now that there’s a new Young Sect Master, she should conduct herself with so restraint.”
Moreover, when Young Sect Master Yikun was around, Lady Leng didn’t seem to be very kind to him.”
Most of the ti, when the lady went to visit the Young Sect Master, it was to seek so benefits for the Sect, for her own brother. Other tis, she was always taking care of the eldest daughter.”
“Father, who are those two that ca back with the Young Sect Master? They…”
“Silence.”
Before Baili Feng could finish, Baili Ying raised his hand to cut him off.
“Those two great individuals are not for the likes of you to casually inquire about. Just take good care of the Young Sect Master, that will suffice.”
Was he asking for death, daring to gossip about the High Priest Demon Heart? He thought this son of his was quite sensible, but why is he speaking out of turn now?
“You stay here and guard, I’ll be back shortly,” he said.
“Yes, Father.”
Baili Feng acknowledged, watching his father leave, then sat down in the courtyard.
Since the Young Sect Master’s return, his task had been to ensure the Young Sect Master’s safety. The Sect Leader had also given him an order, especially concerning the people from the lady’s side—they were categorically forbidden to co into contact with the Young Sect Master.
Indeed, how could he allow soone who wished for the Young Sect Master’s death to co into contact with him?
…
Around a corner, Leng Yiyu, who had just co out of Leng Nichen’s courtyard, suddenly saw two figures appear in the dimly lit corridor.
“Is that…”
She could hardly believe her eyes, standing rooted to the spot in shock for quite a while.
“Eldest Miss, what’s wrong?”
It wasn’t until the maid spoke next to her that she snapped out of it.
When she looked up again, she saw that the two figures were gone from the corridor.
But she couldn’t have mistaken them for soone else; those two people were clearly her father and brother.
Her own brother, who was supposed to beco the Sect Master of Eternal Night Sect, now supposedly dead—Leng Yikun.
“Impossible, this can’t be,” she muttered to herself, shaking her head at the unimaginable thought that she had made a mistake.
But how could she have been mistaken? That wheelchair was identical to the one Leng Yikun used to occupy, and the person sitting in it—although she had not seen his face fully—could be recognized by his profile as Leng Yikun.
How could soone who was dead reappear, sitting in a wheelchair pushed by his father?
“Eldest Miss, what happened to you? Did you see sothing?”
The maid, who had been walking behind Leng Yiyu and was preoccupied with how to persuade her not to oppose Leng Nichen, hadn’t noticed anything and was confused.
She looked at her young lady questioningly and asked.
“Did you see? Just now… just now…” Leng Yiyu turned to question the maid, stamring as she began to speak.
That was Leng Yikun, right? Right?
If a person is seated in a wheelchair and being pushed around, doesn’t that an they’re alive?
So, is Leng Yikun not dead? Still alive?
How could that be? If Leng Yikun were still alive, how could he possibly stand by and watch his own father bring a replacent back?
Leng Yikun wouldn’t…
No, that’s not right. Considering Leng Yikun’s attitude of always considering the best interest of the Eternal Night Sect, it’s very likely sothing he could have done.
