Ren Bao compromised.
Although his heart was unwilling, he still planned to compromise. Just as Lord Chief said, Ren Qian was rely his nephew, not his son. Even though he loved this nephew dearly, there was always a degree of separation in their relationship.
Moreover, even if the person killed by Jing Yan was his own son, Ren Bao would still have to carefully consider how to respond, weighing the consequences of tearing into Jing Yan. This consequence might not be sothing that a Deputy Master of Jade Bay dicine Field Managent Office could bear.
The Master and another Deputy Master both breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Ren Bao’s words.
"Deputy Master Ren Bao, you need not feel too distressed. Jing Yan killed Ren Qian, and he surely knows of Ren Qian’s relationship with you. He might be thinking that you will seek revenge, yet you choose to not only refrain from revenge but also warmly greet him. Do you think he might feel guilty?"
"This is a rare opportunity to establish a good relationship with Jing Yan," the Master said slowly.
"What the Master said is true," the other Deputy Master nodded repeatedly in agreent.
Ren Bao sighed helplessly and also nodded.
...
"What happened?"
"Why is everyone gathering here?"
Near the million acres of dicine fields managed by Dong Laifu, more and more martial artists of Jade Bay dicine Field gathered. There were quite a few managers and many teams of dicine farrs.
The Jade Bay dicine Field has more than a hundred million acres of low-grade dicine fields. Naturally, there are many teams of dicine farrs. Dong Laifu, as a manager, has ten teams under his supervision. So managers have dozens of teams of dicine farrs under them.
"Ren Qian is dead."
"Ren Qian? Which Ren Qian?"
"Which Ren Qian could it be?"
"You don’t an... how is it possible that he’s dead? With the backing of the Deputy Master, who would dare harm him? Are they tired of living?"
"It’s still unclear, but it seems it was soone from the First Palace Qingmu Departnt Steward and soone else who did it, as I’ve heard just now."
"They’ve really caused a big trouble; with Deputy Master Ren Bao behind him, they killed Ren Qian. The Deputy Master will definitely not let this go. So why haven’t they escaped yet and are still waiting here to die?"
The discussions rose and fell; everyone knew sothing big had occurred.
"The Master is here!" At this mont, soone suddenly shouted from the crowd.
All eyes turned to one direction, and indeed, they saw the Master and two Deputy Masters flying in. Accompanying them were also many Lord Managers.
This lineup was indeed intimidating.
For Ren Qian, the Master and Deputy Masters actually ca.
So felt sothing was amiss; logically, even if Ren Qian was significantly related to Deputy Master Ren Bao, it shouldn’t alarm the Master, should it?
What’s the situation now? Almost all the high-level figures of the Jade Bay dicine Field Managent Office have gathered, which is quite unimaginable.
A large number of martial artists, seeing the Master and others arrive, bowed to pay their respects.
Dong Laifu, noticing the commotion, quickly realized the arrival of the Master, Deputy Masters, and others. His body trembled slightly, and he hurriedly went to greet them.
In general, a manager like Dong Laifu doesn’t have the qualification to et with the Master of the managent office. However, Dong Laifu had so connections with Deputy Master Ren Bao, mainly because Ren Qian was the captain of a team under Dong Laifu.
Moreover, this area, being a million acres of dicine field managed by Dong Laifu, made his bow of respect not seem abrupt.
"Greetings to the Master, greetings to the two Deputy Masters, and greetings to the Lord Managers," Dong Laifu deeply bowed while speaking.
The Master’s gaze did not stop on Dong Laifu at all but passed through him, looking towards the position where Jing Yan and others were.
As for Ren Bao, he gave Dong Laifu a deep look, a smirk appearing at the corner of his mouth. While Ren Bao did not intend to trouble Jing Yan, it did not an he had no anger over his nephew’s death. Since he couldn’t vent this anger on Jing Yan, where should it be vented?
This Dong Laifu might not have many good days ahead.
Dong Laifu, too, sensed the angry gaze from Deputy Master Ren Bao. After slightly raising his head, he imdiately lowered it again.
"My lords, it was my incompetence that allowed two outsiders to enter the dicine field and commit acts of violence..." Dong Laifu hurriedly admitted his mistake, having carefully considered these words earlier, contemplating how to extricate himself from this whirlpool with the least cost.
But before Dong Laifu could finish speaking, the Master and others directly walked past him.
"What’s going on?" Dong Laifu kept his head down, feeling the presence of people passing by him, left in confusion.
He slowly raised his head, only to find that there was no one left ahead of him. Turning back, he saw the Master and others flying toward where Jing Yan was.
"Is this... perhaps they plan to execute Jing Yan directly?"
"No, this situation seems off. Shouldn’t they have waited for to finish speaking before taking action?"
"What exactly is happening?" Cold sweat broke out on Dong Laifu’s face as a chill settled in his heart. "Do the lords not want to give a chance to explain?"
Thinking of this, Dong Laifu shivered and suddenly, as if rembering sothing, hurriedly sped up towards the Master and others.
"My lords, that person is called Xia Yu, claiming to be a steward from the First Palace Qingmu Departnt. The other one, wearing a blue robe and looking quite young, is Jing Yan. It was he who killed our dicine field’s Captain Ren Qian. This person is heinously evil, lawless, and has completely disregarded our Jade Bay dicine Field Managent Office." Dong Laifu spoke quickly this ti, fearing that if he did not show his stance, he would no longer have the opportunity to speak.
Listening to his words, the faces of the Master and others turned ugly.
The Master glanced at Deputy Master Ren Bao.
Ren Bao understood the Master’s intention, focusing his aura and shouting, "You fool, get lost! Is Lord Jing Yan’s na sothing you can casually ntion?"
Ren Bao’s furious shout was, of course, ant for Jing Yan to hear.
When Dong Laifu heard this, he was instantly stunned, his mind blank.
What did Deputy Master Ren Bao an by that, calling him Lord Jing Yan? Even Deputy Master Ren Bao respectfully referred to him as Lord Jing Yan, how is that possible?
Of course, it was not only Dong Laifu who was shocked. The surrounding crowd around the dicine field was quite large. Ren Bao’s scolding of Dong Laifu was audible to everyone. Since Ren Bao intended for Jing Yan to hear it, naturally, his voice was not quiet.
