Inside the School Clinic, it wasn’t until dawn was about to break that Master Mo finally heard back from Xin Lin.
"So, this thing is what killed Ji Nian?"
Master Mo struggled to accept this, looking at the white, plump leech resembling a silkworm baby in Xin Lin’s hand,
"It’s an accomplice; the real murderer is Chen He."
Xin Lin had learned from the Corpse Leech that Chen He had already taken the Nine-Headed Pearl Abalone.
At the ti of the incident, there were other spies of Chen He in the Taoyao Pavilion. When Master Ji was gravely injured, the enemy had imdiately taken the Pearl Abalone.
"Then what are we waiting for, let’s go report to the authorities imdiately!"
Master Mo’s face twisted with clenched teeth.
"The governnt and Chen He are in the sa boat. Plus, Chen He has Grandmaster Jin backing him, and Emperor Longteng also has expectations for him. Not to ntion, with Master Ji’s passing, soone still needs to host the birthday banquet in Purple Cloud City next month."
Xin Lin analyzed.
She wanted to severely punish Chen He.
But all signs indicated that Chen He would not face consequences.
"Can’t you go plead with Emperor Longteng? Beibei is his sworn brother, after all."
Master Mo pursed his lips.
"Have you forgotten what happened after Master Ji was cured? My father is still Divine Doctor Chu, who is also Emperor Longteng’s sworn brother. But today’s Divine Doctor Chu is Chu Tianyi."
Xin Lin retorted.
Once it was likely that Chu Beiqing had recovered, Xin Lin found quite a few people tailing near the School Clinic.
Only after it was confird that Chu Beiqing was still a fool did those tailing people retreat.
This matter was known to Xin Lin, and certainly to Master Mo as well.
"Is Ji Nian’s death in vain? Poor , all those good dicines, I haven’t even settled the dical fees with him."
Master Mo looked pained.
On the way, she had fed Ji Nian quite a lot of good stuff.
No matter how you looked at it, it was worth quite a bit of gold.
"Master Ji has gifted half the ownership of Taoyao Pavilion."
Xin Lin took out the deed.
"My goodness! Xiao Xin, you’re rich now. That’s the Taoyao Pavilion, the Four-star Spiritual Food Restaurant, and the top brothel in Zixiao! Tsk tsk, Ji Nian that old man is so unrighteous. It was who saved him, yet he didn’t gift it to ."
Master Mo muttered.
"Please go to the Taoyao Pavilion on my behalf, tell them not to disclose the real cause of Master Ji’s death. I will find a way to avenge him."
Xin Lin admonished.
"How will you avenge him? That old and cunning Chen He, now he has the protection of the Royal family, he won’t be easy to deal with."
Master Mo shook her head.
Xin Lin is a student of Qingtian Academy, after all, she can’t break the law with her own hands.
"Serving the emperor is like walking beside a tiger. If he can get the Royal family’s protection, naturally, I also have thods to make him lose it. Next month, everything will beco clear. Also, in three days, I will leave Qingtian Academy for about five or six days. Help cover for it with the Academy, just say that I’ve fallen ill suddenly."
Xin Lin had already decided to fully cooperate with "Xuanyuan" on this mission. To avoid a long night filled with dreams, she needed to find the Golden Crow Egg Shell as soon as possible.
In addition, she also needed to prepare so special ingredients for the upcoming Spiritual Delicacy Master evaluation next month.
She wanted not only Chen He’s life but also the De Yue Building!
"Leave it to , just rember to bring back so tasty treats. By the way, your worm looks plump and tender, it must be delicious when deep-fried."
As Xin Lin walked away, Master Mo muttered behind her.
Frightened, the Corpse Leech shivered, feeling as if it had escaped the tiger’s den only to enter the wolf’s lair!
