"That's not it. The main reason was that the Yang family head, Yang KongQun, received some news this morning and went to the Wei Manor to visit my Third Uncle. They seemed to be quite familiar with each other and couldn't finish their conversation so I snuck out." Yu BingYan stuck out her tongue and giggled.
Ling Tian thought about it and felt that this was the most logical explanation. As an old tyrant who had been in Sky Bearing for decades, it would be strange if Yang KongQun didn't receive news of Yu ManTian's arrival! Since he received news, it would be strange if he didn't pay a visit!
However, Yu ManTian's arrival gave Yang KongQun a chance to catch his breath! Currently, the Nangong family was preparing to negotiate with the Yang Family. But with Yu ManTian's arrival and Yang KongQun's visit, they couldn't help but suspect that Tamago had some special relationship with the Yang Family. Furthermore, Yu ManTian was a rash person. If the NanGong Family were to negotiate with the Yang Family, it wasn't impossible for this simple-minded fellow to be incited by Yang KongQun to jump out and interfere in the negotiations!
As for the Ling family, they were like a hot potato that they couldn't even avoid, not to mention finding trouble with them. It was still fine if it was Tamago, but the Ling family clearly had the backing of Beyond Heavens. Even if Nangong Tianlong was given a hundred guts, he wouldn't dare to touch a single hair of the Ling family!
Since the Yang Family had apprehensions and the Ling family didn't dare to touch them, then what was the purpose of the Nangong family's arrival in Sky Bearing? Nangong Tianlong's son had died in Sky Bearing for no reason, and the experts of an aristocratic family had arrived. In the end, they realized that they couldn't touch a single one of them? Could it be that their son had died for nothing?!
Ling Tian could only imagine how depressed Nangong Tianlong was right now! He couldn't help but snicker to himself.
"Ah? Sister Ling Chen, what's wrong with you today? Why is his face so ugly? Are you sick? " Yu BingYan's caring question made Ling Chen's face turn red all the way to her neck. She almost wanted to find a hole in the ground to hide in. However, Yu BingYan still walked in front of her with great concern. She forcefully grabbed Ling Chen's wrist, closed her eyes, and started to feel her pulse. His expression was solemn and he had the look of a little divine doctor!
Ling Chen was both embarrassed and embarrassed as she looked towards Ling Tian for help. However, she only saw Ling Tian looking at her as though he was watching a show, obviously not intending to help. She could not help but roll her eyes at him.
Even Ling Chen herself didn't expect that she would be so easily embarrassed after just crossing the hurdle from a young girl to a young married woman! Almost every acquaintance of his would feel a sense of shame, as if the whole world had discovered his secret! This kind of delicate young girl's feelings were really hard to explain. Perhaps even the person involved, Ling Chen, was confused as to why she was like this!
Xue Leng and Xue Fei were both old foxes. They knew what had happened with a single glance. Besides, three days ago, when they stayed here, Ling Chen was still a pure virgin. But now, it seemed that she wasn't anymore. Looking at Ling Chen's bashful appearance, which seemed very unnatural, the two of them knew what had happened last night! They couldn't help but smile ambiguously at Ling Tian at the same time, giving him a thumbs up! On their faces, there was a strange smile that only men could understand!
Ling Tian rolled his eyes, suddenly feeling that this pair of identical twins was rather adorable. He then flung his head back delightedly, putting on an insufferably arrogant look with a satisfied smile on his face.
Xue Leng and Xue Fei were indeed brothers who had been together for tens of years. The tacit understanding between them had already reached the point where they could read each other's minds. The two of them revealed a disdainful smile at the same time, before giving Ling Tian a middle finger …
Just when Ling Tian was secretly delighted, Ling Chen was so embarrassed that she wanted to hide her face, Yang KongQun thought that he had hugged a thick thigh, and the Nangong family members were so depressed that they wanted to bang their heads against the wall, a person walked in from the south gate of Sky Bearing City. His clothes were white linen, his shoes were white linen, his head was white linen, and even the sword on his back was a white linen scabbard with a white linen tassel! His entire person looked as though he was in mourning!
However, such a person actually had a blood-red belt around his waist! There was even a small part of it that wasn't tucked into his waist, fluttering in the wind. Flying along the way, this made him extremely eye-catching!
Walking into the city in such an idiotic manner, if it was anyone else, they would have been booed by him. However, when this person walked in calmly, not a single person dared to make fun of him!
While this person's attire was laughable, the expression on his face wasn't! His face was as cold as ice, and he was as thin as a zombie that had crawled out of a grave. His eyes were also a deathly grey, with the color of death. Everyone who walked past him could not help but feel a chill from the bottom of their hearts. They couldn't help but feel their hair stand on end! Even the usually lawless city guards couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts when they saw this person. A thick sense of fear seeped into everyone's hearts. Looking at him swaggering into the city, not a single person dared to step forward to check his background!
Everyone could only watch as this strange person slowly walked into the city and calmly disappeared into the crowd ….
Just as Ling Tian had expected, Nangong Tianlong was currently stomping his feet and cursing in the inn! Outside, Nangong Tianhu had already reorganized his troops and was preparing to find trouble with Yang KongQun. At the same time, he wanted to make use of the 'accidental' death of his son to gain a huge advantage. Who would have known that just as everyone was scheming, Tamago's Third Elder, Yu ManTian, had accepted the invitation of the Yang Family's Family Head to visit the Yang Family as a guest! This caused Nangong Tianlong, who was holding his breath, to the point of almost fainting!
While the Yu Family only sent Yu ManTian and Yu Lao San, who knew what the number one aristocratic family in the Heavenly Star Continent was planning? But no matter what, Tamago was definitely not a family that his Nangong family could afford to offend! Especially since Tamago's Third Elder, Yu ManTian's temper was known throughout the world. Now that he was in the Yang Family, wouldn't they be looking for trouble if they went to look for him? It was obvious that they didn't want to give Tamago any face! Not to mention not being able to defeat Yu ManTian, even if they could, they wouldn't be able to!
Hurriedly stopping the enraged Nangong Tianhu, Nangong Tianlong's face was gloomy as he paced back and forth in the inn. After a long while, he finally said, "Today's mission is temporarily canceled."
"Big brother, why? How can we not take revenge for Le 'er? So what if Yang KongQun has Tamago's support? Although Tamago is powerful, they can't be unreasonable, right? Besides, it's only Yu ManTian, why should we be afraid of him? This little brother here can deal with him alone! "Nangong Tianhu disagreed with his big brother's decision!
"The current situation is complicated and we still don't know what Tamago's intentions are. We don't know if they are cooperating with the Yang Family, or if the Yang Family has chosen to rely on Tamago, or if Yang KongQun is just borrowing their power. But now is not the time to act rashly! Tamago's strength is unfathomable and we cannot act rashly. Although we must take revenge for Le 'er, we must not drag the entire family into a crisis. Let's wait and see for now. No matter how complicated the situation is, there will be a time for it to clear up. "Nangong Tianlong said slowly.
"Father, I feel that Yang KongQun is most likely borrowing our power! After all, how arrogant are Tamago's thousand-year-old families? Why would they form an alliance with a nouveau riche like the Yang Family? Although that Yang KongQun is treacherous, he is not someone who is willing to submit to others. Therefore, I believe that the first point of forming an alliance can be ignored. "NanGong Yu's delicate and pretty face revealed a look of contemplation.
"Oh? Continue. "Nangong Tianlong's eyes lit up.
"Secondly, Tamago will definitely not accept the Yang Family. Firstly, the Yang Family only has some strength in Sky Bearing, but their influence is too weak. I believe that Tamago will not even place them in his eyes. Secondly, Tamago has always maintained a detached attitude, existing in the conflicts of the continent. As long as Tamago does not have the intention to fight for hegemony, then accepting the Yang Family's support would be meaningless and unreasonable! Furthermore, with the Yang Family facing internal and external troubles, Tamago will definitely not be willing to embrace a hot potato in his arms. Even if the Yang Family can give him generous conditions, it would be futile. "Nangong Yu spoke frankly with assurance, her analysis meticulous.
For the first time, Nangong Tianlong realized that his daughter's intelligence was actually so high. He could not help but smile as he looked at Nangong Yu, hinting for her to continue.
"As for borrowing the power of others, that is the most likely method, and it is also completely understandable! Our Nangong family's reason for coming here is to take revenge for brother Le, but our main target is the Yang Family! No matter what, the Yang Family's current strength is definitely not a match for our Nangong family. Thus, the moment a conflict breaks out, the Yang Family will definitely be at a disadvantage. But at this moment, Yu ManTian just had to come to Sky Bearing, giving Yang KongQun a strong life-saving straw. That old thief Yang will definitely grab onto it tightly, dragging out this awkward period of time before coming up with a plan. "
"Oh, there might be other intentions behind this." NanGong Yu thought for a moment before replying with certainty. "Right now, although Yang KongQun does not know that we have already found out that the true culprit behind Brother Le's death is his Yang Family, he should be able to guess that our NanGong Family has come here in large numbers to seek revenge. He should not be able to wait any longer, and could even guess that we will be making some big moves in the next few days. Thus, he purposely invited Yu ManTian back, hoping that we will not act rashly, but in reality, he is digging a trap for our Nangong family. If we make a move while Yu ManTian is still in the Yang Family, then we will definitely not be giving Tamago any face. At the same time, Yu ManTian will definitely not stand by the side and watch. As such, our Nangong family will definitely be pushed to the opposite side of Tamago! But in reality, we already have no choice but to make a move. If we really retreat, the world will think that our Nangong family will never be able to recover from this setback, and our reputation will be destroyed! "
"However, if we really have a conflict with Tamago, no matter how big or small the conflict is, let's not talk about the difference in strength between us and Tamago. But one thing is for sure, the moment we go up against Tamago, our Nangong family will not have the time to care about anything else. Yang KongQun and his Yang Family will definitely be able to rest easy, benefiting that old thief! From being trapped in a trap to sitting on top of a mountain and watching the tigers fight, this is indeed a brilliant plan! The key person is Tamago's Third Master, Yu ManTian. He came at the right time, and because he is a boorish fellow, Yang KongQun only needs to use a few tricks to make him an enemy of our Nangong. Thus, I suggest that we bear with it for now and wait for the right opportunity. This is much more worth it! "As she said that, a trace of worry appeared on Nangong Yu's face. If Yang KongQun really wanted to provoke Yu ManTian, even if her family did not make a move, Yu ManTian would still come knocking on their door. However, she was afraid that her words would affect everyone's hearts, so Nangong Yu could only swallow her words.
"That's right!" Nangong Tianlong slapped his thigh, "Yu 'er's words make sense. Thus, we cannot go and find trouble with the Yang Family now. If we take a step back, we will be able to get a better view. That Yu ManTian can't possibly stay in the Yang Family for long, right? "
Nangong TianHu scratched his messy hair, and a snow-white powder-like substance floated down. Nangong Tianlong and Nangong Yu both frowned and retreated. However, he frowned and said in confusion, "What is the meaning of this Yang KongQun? Doesn't he know that it is impossible for Yu ManTian to protect his Yang Family forever? He will have to leave sooner or later, right? The Yang Family will have to face our revenge sooner or later! Then wouldn't his current actions be superfluous? Is it just for a moment of respite? "
NanGong Yu smiled lightly and explained patiently, "What Second Uncle said is the crux of the matter. Yang KongQun only needs to drag things out for a few days. After a few more days, all the eight powers will gather in Sky Bearing. At that time, as the local tyrant, Yang KongQun will be able to take advantage of the situation to deal with our Nangong family. At that time, the situation will be chaotic, and Yang KongQun will definitely not dare to act rashly. In fact, it is also not convenient for us to act rashly! "
Nangong Tianlong let out a sinister smile, "That's true. While the Yang Family can definitely obtain allies during that period, why can't our Nangong family do the same? In the entire Heavenly Star Continent, the Nangong family is much more famous than the Yang Family! If Yang KongQun only has this idea, I'm afraid he has miscalculated! "
Nangong Yu muttered to herself for a while before saying, "Father, Yu 'er has thought about it over and over again. We still have to take precautions against this matter. After all, this is Sky Bearing and is the territory of the Yang Family. As the saying goes,' a strong dragon cannot suppress a local tyrant '. While our strength isn't weak, with so many powers surrounding us, we can't be called a strong dragon. Sky Bearing is Yang KongQun's home ground, and that old bastard is the local tyrant. When all the powers come here, they will definitely have to give Yang KongQun some face. No matter how famous the Nangong family is, this isn't the Southern Zheng's Golden Jade City! "
Nangong Tianlong remained silent for a while before saying, "Yu 'er, what do you think we should do?" For Nangong Tianlong to ask such a question, it was obvious that he already had the intention of grooming his daughter!
Nangong Yu was elated in her heart, and said without hesitation, "Father, have you forgotten? The Yang Family still has a rival in Sky Bearing! If the Yang Family wants to strike a balance between both sides, they would have to obtain the agreement of the local tyrant! "
Nangong Tianlong's eyes lit up, and he laughed out loud, "That's right! There's still the Ling family! "
Nangong Yu said with a smile as though she had the pearl of wisdom in her hands, "As long as we can make use of the opportunity to form a good relationship with the Ling family, and the Ling family has a good relationship with Beyond Heavens, regardless of whether the relationship is big or small, it would be the same as us coming into contact with Beyond Heavens! That would solve Yang KongQun's plan of framing us! Furthermore, Yang KongQun might be on Tamago's side now, but if we form a good relationship with the Ling family, it would be like using Beyond Heavens to go against Tamago. Regardless of whether Beyond Heavens admits it or not, it would create such an impression in the eyes of all the other powers! While Tamago is strong, they might not be able to stand against Beyond Heavens! "
"Hahaha, if that's the case, Beyond Heavens and Tamago's powers would cancel each other out, but we would have another local tyrant ally … the Ling family! Hahaha … what a brilliant plan, what a brilliant plan! Yu 'er, your father didn't realize it before, but with your intelligence, you are definitely the brains of our Nangong family. "
Nangong Yu smiled shyly, "This is all thanks to father's teachings."
Both father and daughter would never have thought that the Ling family that they were intending to form a good relationship with was the real enemy that killed their children and brothers. And the Yang family that they were trying to deal with was actually a 100% scapegoat! Originally, they were staunch allies, but now, they were mortal enemies. Originally, they should have fought each other to the death, irreconcilable enemy, but now, they had become the target that they wholeheartedly wanted to curry favor with! The mysteries of the world were truly unfathomable!
