Chapter 714: Suspected Identity
The Blood Fiend Sect of Setting Sun Islands and the Blood Fiend Sect under Jiang Zhuzhe were very different in the eyes of Land of Chaos’ martial practitioners.
Jiang Zhuzhe was infamous, and nearly all forces out there viewed him as a heretic and refused to admit him as a member of Blood Fiend Sect.
To this day, none of Jiang Zhuzhe’s subordinates dared to operate openly or even show themselves at densely populated areas of the Land of Chaos.
To an outsider, Qin Lie’s act of carrying the Ice Phoenix’s body behind his back was both eerie and abnormal. But it subtly matched Jiang Zhuzhe’s style.
It was reasonable that Yue Ji would think this way. Everyone agreed to what she said in their minds after some careful thought.
Even Dong Wanzhai was starting to harbor doubts in his mind. “This Yao Tian can’t be a subordinate of Jiang Zhuzhe, can he?” He couldn’t help but look at Qin Lie with a bit of disgust in his eyes when he thought this.
“Jiang Zhuzhe and us Blood Fiend Sect are like water and fire. There is absolutely no chance of reconcilement between the two of us!” Qin Lie said righteously and seriously, “I dare send a message to the Setting Sun Islands right now and prove that I am unrelated to Jiang Zhuzhe!”
“That may not necessarily be true,” Yue Ji added coldly.
This woman looked to be at most thirty years old, and there was a thin haze around her eyes that made her look somewhat enigmatic and extraordinarily attractive.
Besides that, her well rounded body filled with the charm of a mature woman made her look outstanding too.
“No one read the letter you sent to Setting Sun Islands, so who knows what you’ve actually written to them?” Yue Ji frowned with a ridiculing sneer on her face, “You could’ve written a few general lines on the letter, and those people at the Setting Sun Islands wouldn’t know that you belong to Jiang Zhuzhe’s faction. They may even think that you’re just a member of our Moon Worshipping Sect. In that case, they would return the three hundred thousand Earth Grade spirit stones that we’ve sent to them. All it would prove is that your name wasn’t enough to sway them. What can we say about that?”
Qin Lie was stumped for words.
He had to admit that this woman had a sharp tongue. He couldn’t find an excuse to refute her claims.
If he really did belong under Jiang Zhuzhe, he absolutely could’ve written a careless request in Moon Worshipping Palace’s name to make a purchase request of the Blazing Profound Bombs.
If Blood Fiend Sect was willing to sell the Blazing Profound Bombs, they would of course deliver them the spirit artifacts. If they weren’t, they would return the three hundred thousand Earth Grade spirit stones.
If that happened, he would neither draw Blood Fiend Sect’s attention, nor expose himself to Moon Worshipping Palace.
“You are right, Yue Ji!” a few Moon Worshipping Palace martial practitioners echoed her sentiment.
“If he really does belong to Jiang Zhuzhe’s faction, then he cannot be allowed to stay in Moonstone City. In fact, we must detain him!” Yue Ji’s eyes turned cold. “Terminator Sect had only acknowledged the Blood Fiend Sect of the Setting Sun Islands. Jiang Zhuzhe’s Blood Fiend Sect is not included! A thousand years ago, Jiang Zhuzhe had a bloody war that spanned across many lands. There were plenty of our ancestors who had their blood sucked and killed by Jiang Zhuzhe’s subordinates!”
Dong Wanzhai frowned deeply with a sudden look of dilemma.
“The Blazing Profound Bombs produced by Gray Island is incredibly popular right now, and there are countless forces who are fighting to buy some for themselves. It is nearly impossible for all forces who do not share any ties with Blood Fiend Sect to make a purchase at market price.” The Moon Worshipping Palace martial practitioner named Liu He pondered for a moment before saying, “If this Yao Tian do not belong to the Setting Sun Islands, there is no way he could get us the Blazing Profound Bombs! Let us wait. If the trade actually goes through, then we can be sure that Yao Tian’s identity is absolutely authentic!”
“On the other hand, if three hundred thousand Earth Grade spirit stones are returned from the item teleportation formation…”
Liu He inhaled once and stared at Qin Lie with unfriendly eyes. “Then we must investigate Yao Tian’s identity!”
“Your logic is sound, Uncle Liu.” Yue Ji nodded slightly.
The two other women also agreed with Liu He’s words.
In the room, many Moon Worshipping Palace martial practitioners chattered and exchanged opinions with each other in small voices.
If the Blazing Profound Bombs had returned from the item teleportation formation, then Qin Lie must be a member of the Blood Fiend Sect of the Setting Sun Islands.
Otherwise, there were two possibilities. Either Qin Lie wasn’t important enough in Setting Sun Islands’ Blood Fiend Sect to win them a trade...
…Or Qin Lie wasn’t a member of the Setting Sun Islands’ Blood Fiend Sect at all! He was Jiang Zhuzhe’s!
Jiang Zhuzhe’s infamy spread far and wide, and there were plenty of martial practitioners in Moonstone City who itched to slaughter his kind to the last!
If they confirmed that Qin Lie was connected to Jiang Zhuzhe, then his fate would be horrendous to say the least.
“Let us wait for an hour first,” Dong Wanzhai said solemnly.
He didn’t express his stance openly.
