Shui QianRou did not know what was going on at her side. Ever since the experts of the Shui Family arrived in Sky Bearing, they would have a few conflicts with the local powers in Sky Bearing. They even had a few conflicts with the people from Tamago. But at this critical juncture, Ling Chen seemed to have disappeared and refused to meet them!
Her good sister who came to visit her frequently was nowhere to be seen! This made Shui QianRou, who had been waiting anxiously, feel as though her lips were on fire.
What should she do? The battle with Tamago was right in front of her eyes. If she did not have the support of the Ling family at this moment, wouldn't she, who was unfamiliar with this place, be eaten up by Tamago? You have to know that these people were basically blind here. If there was a real danger, they would not even know where to run to.
Furthermore, during this period of time, his cousins had started to find ways to find trouble with Shui QianHuan. The past few days were as long as a year, and they were extremely miserable. While Ling Chen had sent Ling Chi here, it was only a formality to ensure that Shui QianHuan would not be harmed. However, the three brothers were not fools. Even if Shui QianHuan had committed a grave mistake, he was still the only son of their family head. They would not dare to kill him directly. However, there was no harm in ridiculing him. The three brothers took turns to mock Shui QianHuan, mocking him as much as they could. This caused Shui QianHuan, who was already suffering from internal injuries, to be greatly affected. His originally unhealed injuries worsened, and he vomited blood many times over the past few days. He was really as thin as a stick, and his life was hanging by a thread …
Without receiving permission from Ling Chen, Shui QianRou naturally did not dare to bring her family members to look for Ling Chen. However, she would go to the Ling House alone every day. Not to mention Ling Chen, she did not even see Li Xue once. Every time, the person who accompanied her was someone else: her fated enemy, her new sworn sister, Yu BingYan!
Shui QianRou felt that she was going crazy!
If Ling Chen still didn't appear, her brother Shui QianHuan would probably be angered to death, played to death, and trampled to death by those people …
Furthermore, the movements of the people from Tamago had been extremely secretive these few days, as though they were preparing for something. There were also clear signs of them amassing wealth, as though they had the intention of leaving after profiting a huge sum … However, these people were currently in Sky Bearing and were an important part of Tamago's strength. Both parties were in an away match and were evenly matched. This was the best opportunity to weaken Tamago's strength, so how could they let them leave so easily?
But since Ling Chen didn't appear, Shui QianRou naturally didn't dare to come up with a plan on her own. As for the other elders, as the saying goes, even a powerful dragon cannot suppress a snake in its old haunts. For the sake of safety, they were all experienced and prudent. Thus, they suggested to wait for a while before making a decision … But if they waited any longer, the cooked duck would fly away …
This was the eleventh time he had come to the Ling House!
It was also the eleventh day since the experts of the Shui Family had arrived in Sky Bearing!
Shui QianRou held onto a cup of tea and sat on the chair absent-mindedly. Ever since Shui QianRou was born, she had never been in such a situation before. She was thinking in her heart, Just which part of the plan went wrong? Why did Ling Chen refuse to see them? Could it be that the intelligence of the Shui Family was wrong? Could it be that the original 500 people had attracted Ling Chen's displeasure? Or could it be that Big Brother's attitude that day had angered Ling Chen? No matter which one it was, it wasn't a good thing.
Just as she was feeling perturbed, Yu BingYan's words didn't reach her ears. Yu BingYan was just trying to find something to talk about.
Yu BingYan was originally just trying to find something to talk about. Seeing that Shui QianRou seemed to have a lot on her mind and that her words seemed to be incoherent, Yu BingYan smiled bitterly and shut her mouth, not saying another word. The two of them stared at each other in a daze. Perhaps it should be said that it was Yu BingYan who was staring at Shui QianRou in a daze. Because Shui QianRou herself might not even be able to say what she was thinking about …
Outside the door, light footsteps could be heard and Ling Chen's apologetic voice could be heard, "I'm really sorry about little sister Rou. There were just too many things that happened these few days and I actually got injured when I went out for a trip. I'm really sorry about that! Little sister Rou must be anxious from waiting, right? "
Shui QianRou immediately stood up and smiled, "It's fine, it's good that elder sister is back. Elder sister's body has recovered a lot." Looking up, she couldn't help but be shocked.
Although the Ling Chen in front of her was full of energy and her steps were light, Shui QianRou could tell that Ling Chen was much more haggard compared to ten days ago! Her pretty face was so thin that one could almost see her cheekbones. Her pair of big eyes seemed even bigger, and they were faintly bloodshot. Her originally frail body looked even more pitiful at this moment. It seemed as if a gust of wind could blow her away …
"Elder sister, what … what happened to you?" She originally suspected that Ling Chen was just making excuses to brush her off. But seeing Ling Chen in such a state, how could Shui QianRou still be in the mood to be polite? She only felt a sharp pain in her heart and rushed to the side of Ling Chen in shock. With a face full of concern, she asked, "What happened? Why are you so haggard? "Suddenly, her heart sank. Could it be that … something happened to him? Thinking of this, she only felt a sharp pain in her heart, as if someone had used a sledgehammer to hit it. Her face turned pale and she took two steps back. Her eyes were also somewhat empty.
"Oh, it's fine now." Ling Chen smiled and said, "It's just that something happened down there and I needed to deal with it personally. But on the way back, I encountered the most elite forces of the Nangong family and almost lost my life. It's just that I've delayed little sister's important matters. I hope little sister doesn't take it to heart. "
"I see." Shui QianRou only felt a wave of relief in her heart. But she still rebuked, "Elder sister is really too much. Since you're injured, why don't you rest properly? Younger sister's visit must have disturbed elder sister's rest. Speaking of which, it's younger sister's fault." Seeing Ling Chen this time, Shui QianRou could faintly feel that although the Ling Chen in front of her was still the same Ling Chen that she was familiar with, there seemed to be an additional aura around her. It was as if in these few days, an earth-shattering change had happened to Ling Chen. Shui QianRou suddenly felt a trace of unfamiliarity that she had never felt before …
"It's fine." Ling Chen smiled gently and sat down. "I don't know what important matter younger sister Rou is here for today, right?"
Shui QianRou laughed bitterly and her face was filled with indescribable worry. "Shui QianHu and the others are really too much. These few days …"
Ling Chen said in surprise, "Didn't I already send Ling Chi over? Why? They actually didn't give my Ling family any face? They really dared to make things difficult for your brother?! " Her tone was only slightly heavy, but a sinister aura was naturally emitted from it, bringing with it a tinge of bloodthirst.
Shui QianRou suddenly felt that she couldn't catch her breath. After taking a few deep breaths, she forced out a smile and said, "Elder sister, what are you saying? Being in Sky Bearing, our Han Family naturally has to be respectful to the Ling family. However, their words are truly unpleasant to the ears. Furthermore, my brother has always been proud and arrogant. Coupled with the fact that his injuries have worsened over the past few days, it is inevitable that their words will affect his condition …" Shui QianRou's heart was filled with shock. In just a few days, while Ling Chen's words and actions were the same as before, how did her aura change so drastically? That cold aura from before was something that even an iron-blooded death warrior who had returned from a hundred battles would not be able to match. It was truly frightening!
Ling Chen replied with an 'oh' before smiling, "The edge of a sword is sharpened, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold. I believe that after this incident, young master Shui will have a deeper understanding of everything. This might not be a bad thing."
Shui QianRou laughed bitterly. Even if it was a good thing, he would still have to be able to endure it. However, looking at her brother's current state, he probably wouldn't be able to hold on for much longer …
"Furthermore, the Head of the Tamago Family, Yu ManLou, suddenly took in a concubine three days ago. In these few days, the army under the Tamago Family has been gathering rapidly for some unknown reason, as though they are about to start something." Shui QianRou said solemnly with a tinge of worry, "Right now, the people of Tamago Family in Sky Bearing should have received some news and are all packing their belongings. They seem to be preparing to leave immediately. If we are late, I'm afraid …"
Yu BingYan hurriedly stood up with an ugly expression on her face. Her tone was distant as she said bitterly, "I'm not feeling well and will return to the secret chamber first." As she said that, she walked out.
Shui QianRou's face flushed red. Only now did she remember that Yu BingYan was the little princess of the Tamago Family and she was actually discussing how to deal with the Tamago Family in front of her … could it be that she was muddle-headed? Why didn't she think of this point?
Originally, with Shui QianRou's intelligence and upbringing, it was impossible for her to overlook this point. It was probably because she was vexed by the recent matters and neglected them. On the other hand, it was because Shui QianRou had truly treated Yu BingYan as her own sister and did not have her guard up against her, resulting in such a scene.
Strangely enough, ever since Yu BingYan and Shui QianRou became sworn siblings, the relationship between the two of them, which was supposed to be a life and death battle, was actually the most harmonious. It was even better than Ling Chen who initiated the vow. It was as though the both of them did not consider each other's identity at all. This point made both Ling Chen and Li Xue extremely surprised. Now that Shui QianRou was willing to voice out her worries, she really did not have the slightest bit of apprehension towards Yu BingYan in the depths of her heart. Even Shui QianRou herself did not know when she had undergone such a huge change. It was truly baffling.
This was something that both Shui QianRou and Yu BingYan were clear about. However, Shui QianRou was stuck in the middle and was stuck in a dilemma. Especially when they were talking about Yu ManLou taking in a concubine, the three ladies had a weird expression on their faces and Yu BingYan felt extremely embarrassed … Thus, she hurriedly escaped from the room.
In the room, only Ling Chen and Shui QianRou were left looking at each other. After a long while, Ling Chen covered her mouth and laughed. She pointed at the embarrassed Shui QianRou and said, "You ah, you ah … hahaha … you are really … a pair of enemies!"
Shui QianRou opened her mouth awkwardly but did not say anything. She could only let out a sigh that was unknown whether she was happy or bitter.
"I already know about the matter regarding Tamago. However, the situation has changed recently and it is not suitable for our Ling family to stand out in the open. After all, we are still in-laws and even if we have a utilitarian heart, it is still the same! "Ling Chen said slowly.
"The situation has changed? In-laws? Don't tell me that your Ling family is going to make peace with Tamago? "Shui QianRou asked anxiously.
Ling Chen muttered to herself for a moment and thought about the latest news that Ling Tian sent over. She then said vaguely, "We are all sisters and there is no need to hide anything from younger sister. Young noble has sent over the latest news that regarding the matter regarding Tamago, our Ling family can only help in the dark and will definitely not help in the open."
Shui QianRou responded with an 'oh' and was more or less relieved. As long as the Ling family did not join forces with Tamago, it would only be a matter of formality. This would not affect their original cooperation and the situation on her side would not change.
Ling Chen muttered to herself for a moment before saying, "According to my estimations, Tamago's men will be retreating from Sky Bearing in the next few days. Your chance might come at that time."
Shui QianRou's eyes lit up and she said, "I would like to hear the details."
Ling Chen blinked her eyes and said with a smile, "I have already made arrangements for the next few days. If Tamago's men want to take anything away, no one is to stop them. They can take whatever they want and as much as they want. Thus … Tamago's troops will definitely be large and slow … ah ah …"
"Sister, you are really bad!" Shui QianRou burst out into laughter and Flying with high spirits, "Using such a method to slow down their speed and reduce their martial prowess … what a brilliant plan!"
Ling Chen smiled and said calmly, "The selfishness of a person is boundless, especially for those small figures. While some gold and silver may be no different from rocks in Yu ManLou's eyes, in the eyes of ordinary experts, it is the capital to settle down. Thus, even if Yu ManLou gives the order, these people will only leave after they have filled their pockets." Ling Chen turned around and a look of ridicule could be seen on her face, "As the saying goes, when one's selfishness blinds one's mind, it means that our chance has come. The moment they leave Sky Bearing City, it will be the time for lightning to strike."
Shui QianRou's breathing became hurried and her eyes shone brightly as she said, "Our Shui Family will intercept them on the way and bring the best gifts back to Tamago to repay the debt they owed me that day."
Ling Chen looked at Shui QianRou and said, "We will provide you with the most detailed route in Tamago and the most accurate information! In fact, the intelligence would even include the martial arts of the Yu Family experts, their combat prowess, the amount of jewels they have on them, and the effects they would have on the Yu Family. However, we would not be able to participate in this attack directly. You will be in charge of the attack and we will not interfere. Is there a problem? "
"No problem at all!" Shui QianRou said with confidence. "If we are still unable to deal a heavy blow to Tamago, then our Shui Family will not have the qualifications to coexist with Tamago!"
