Chapter 578: Jian Fei Afraid of Troubles, Ma Hu the Drama King
Watching Xu Yao jumping up and down, Ma Ling’er couldn’t help but speak up.
“You don’t need to call out anymore; this is within the range of the Sword Qi Great Wall. Without starting a war, they won’t dare come over.”
Upon hearing this, Xu Yao immediately spoke up: “Lingjie, after being pursued by them for so long, let me vent my anger properly.”
Seeing that she couldn’t persuade Xu Yao, Ma Ling’er planned to put some pressure on Chen Changsheng, since such behavior was truly too shameful.
But when Ma Ling’er looked at Chen Changsheng, she found that Chen Changsheng had already turned around to face the Sword Qi Great Wall.
At this moment, Chen Changsheng no longer had his usual lazy and slack appearance, replaced by a calm expression.
After spending a few days together, Ma Ling’er had a basic understanding of Chen Changsheng.
When Chen Changsheng showed this expression, it meant he was taking things seriously.
“k*ll them all, not a single one left!”
Chen Changsheng muttered to himself, then a large hand directly grabbed towards the people from the Savage Wilderness.
“Pfft!”
The upper-level cultivators from the Savage Wilderness instantly turned into bl**d mist, and Ma Hu urgently fell from the sky.
“My dear daughter, are you alright?”
“Some lowly creatures from the Savage Wilderness actually dared to have evil intentions towards my daughter. They are simply tired of living.”
Looking at her father whose expression seemed “urgent” but who wasn’t really concerned about her, Ma Ling’er’s lips twitched as she said:
“It’s my incompetence that worries Father.”
“This time, in the layout by the Savage Wilderness, I narrowly escaped with my life. Thanks to the help of these two friends, we managed to survive.”
As she spoke, Ma Ling’er looked at Chen Changsheng and said: “Xiancha, this is my father, also the commander guarding the Sword Qi Great Wall.”
“Ah, General Tianma, I apologize!”
Seeing Chen Changsheng get off his horse to bow, Ma Hu hurriedly held Chen Changsheng’s hand and said excitedly.
“There’s no need for formalities. You are my daughter’s benefactor, and also my benefactor.”
“I will personally welcome the benefactor today.”
After saying this, Ma Hu led everyone back to the Sword Qi Great Wall.
…
Sword Qi Great Wall.
“Give you two a cup of tea’s time to talk. There are quite a few things going on recently, make use of the time.”
After coming to the room, Chen Changsheng’s attitude instantly changed.
“Thank you, Xiancha.”
After politely saying this, Ma Hu pulled Xu Yao and Ma Ling’er away.
Watching the eager Ma Hu, Jian Fei curiously asked: “Xiancha, General Tianma looks very happy!”
“Parents naturally feel happy when their daughter has great opportunities.”
“Let them be happy for a while, after all, they will be separating soon.”
Saying this, Chen Changsheng paused, then looked at Jian Fei and said:
“Have you thought clearly in seven days?”
“Xiancha, what do I need to think clearly about?”
“Who is behind the plot against Xu Yao and Ma Ling’er?”
Facing Chen Changsheng’s inquiry, Jian Fei immediately said with a look of grievance:
“Xiancha, you know my intelligence isn’t as good as Xu Yao’s, nor is my network as extensive as Ma Ling’er’s.”
“Do I really need to think clearly about this?”
Looking at Chen Changsheng’s gaze, Jian Fei immediately lost his temper.
“Sir, why do you always make things difficult for me? My talent isn’t as strong as Xu Yao’s, and my connections aren’t as broad as Ma Ling’er’s.”
“If I get involved in this, it would only lead to my d*ath. Can you please let me off?”
Hearing this, Chen Changsheng sneered and said: “Don’t try to fool me. In the Eight Desolates Nine Domains, anyone I want to protect, no one dares to k*ll.”
“I think you’re not afraid of dying, but you’re afraid of trouble.”
“As the saying goes, the more capable one is, the more work they do. The smarter you act, the heavier the burden I’ll give you.”
“In this aspect, Xu Yao and Ma Ling’er aren’t as smart as you.”
Seeing Chen Changsheng expose his little trick, Jian Fei deflated and said: “The person plotting against Xu Yao and others should be in the Sword Qi Great Wall.”
“Why do you reach this conclusion?”
“After the battle with Long Zhao, Sir brought us deep into the Savage Wilderness.”
“Besides going to the Savage Wilderness to do something and temper us, Sir should also have wanted to confirm where the person behind the scenes was located.”
“Suddenly saving us, Sir not only made the Sword Qi Great Wall lose our trail, but the Savage Wilderness did too.”
“In these seven days, Sir has been observing the movements in the Savage Wilderness.”
“But it’s clear, the Savage Wilderness’s performance disappointed Sir, as their actions weren’t swift enough.”
“To carefully confirm, Sir deliberately exposed our trail.”
“But the Savage Wilderness’s performance still didn’t meet the standards of plotting against Xu Yao and others.”
“Taking this step, the situation became very clear. At that time, there was no one directing the Savage Wilderness, at least the mastermind didn’t act.”
“And during those few days when they didn’t know our whereabouts, the only place left was the Sword Qi Great Wall.”
After hearing Jian Fei’s words, Chen Changsheng nodded in satisfaction.
“Not bad, your intuition is sharp. You surviving until now isn’t just luck.”
“Considering your good performance, I allow you to ask about anything you don’t understand.”
Hearing this, Jian Fei thought for a moment and said: “Sir, you’ve been living with us day and night recently. Based on my observations, you haven’t used any special methods.”
“Completely isolating news between the Sword Qi Great Wall and the Savage Wilderness, Sir must have taken action. Otherwise, the entire plan wouldn’t have flaws.”
“But I still can’t figure out how you contacted the Sword Qi Great Wall.”
Facing Jian Fei’s question, Chen Changsheng shook the communication device in his hand and said:
“The communication device was made by me. Your devices having no signal in the Savage Wilderness doesn’t mean mine does too.”
“From beginning to end, I’ve controlled the Sword Qi Great Wall.”
“During Xu Yao and others’ disappearance, I know exactly what the people in the Sword Qi Great Wall did and how they behaved.”
“However, unfortunately, the answer from the Sword Qi Great Wall disappointed me.”
Hearing Chen Changsheng’s tone, Jian Fei cautiously looked at him and probed:
“Sir, have you already figured out who the traitor is?”
“I haven’t found the leader yet, but I already have an idea about who the specific people are.”
“So Sir, you plan to…”
Jian Fei stopped halfway through his sentence.
Because this matter was too significant, and his current identity wasn’t qualified to continue speaking.
Seeing this, Chen Changsheng smiled and pinched Jian Fei’s face and said: “Your act of pretending to be confused is correct. This pot is too heavy for you to carry, and I don’t plan to make you carry it either.”
“Focus on living your own life; these matters don’t concern you.”
“After Xu Yao and others come out, have them find me outside.”
After saying this, Chen Changsheng turned and walked away.
“Drip!”
A drop of sweat fell onto the floor. At this moment, Jian Fei was already trembling all over, guessing what the final outcome might be.
