Indeed, Ye Futian didn't want to play with Luo Junlin anymore. He wanted to solve this on his own, but Luo Junlin didn't think so.
Since you're scheming, I'll do it openly.
It started in Nandou and would end in the Nandou Nation.
In the past, the Luo family father and son had used their influence to oppress him, claiming that they were kings. They claimed that everything in the world belonged to them and they were high and mighty. Now, he would return it to them.
"Fine," Luo Junlin said with a gloomy face.
He knew very well that he had no choice but to accept this battle. Ye Futian's words were sharp. Neither the Cottage nor his master He Yulu would allow him to reject the battle.
Moreover, he was not a mediocre person. Since Ye Futian was so confident, then he would fulfill his wish.
A month later, the battle of the Southern Dipper.
He knew very well that he would not be able to escape this catastrophe. Instead of waiting for Ye Futian to grow, he might as well use the advantage of his plane to cut off all future troubles and get rid of this threat.
With the Cottage's reputation in the Eastern Barren Territory, since it was Ye Futian's request, they would not interfere no matter what the result was. This was indeed an opportunity for him.
"Senior Sister, let's go back." Ye Futian turned around and said to his second senior sister. After staying in the Cottage for a year, he already had some understanding of the Cottage's style of doing things.
This was one of the principles of the Cottage. Whoever committed a crime would be responsible for it. However, if it was covered up, then it would be another matter.
He had heard that Third Senior Brother had annihilated a faction in the past because their descendants had trampled on lives. A clan protecting such a faction was equivalent to condoning the growth of sin. Since that was the case, they had to enforce justice on behalf of the heavens.
"Alright." Zhuge Hui nodded with a smile. Then, she looked at He Yulu and said, "If I don't see him in the Nandou Nation in a month, I will come to you."
With that, the people from the Cottage and the College turned around and left.
The surrounding people stared at the back of the departing figure, their hearts filled with emotions.
This was the Cottage, the strength of the Cottage.
Assassinating a Cottage disciple. Even if they had to dig three feet into the ground, they had to find the culprit at all costs.
Now, the person behind the assassination, Xirou, was dead.
The person behind Xirou, Luo Junlin, would have a battle to the death with Ye Futian.
All of this seemed to have come to an end.
The oppressive energy enveloping Zhaoge City seemed to have lightened a bit.
However, the inn where the people from the Royal Xuan Temple stayed was still very depressing.
Then, the people from the Qin Dynasty quietly arrived. Qin Li represented the Qin Dynasty to apologize to He Yulu. This matter was the clue that the Qin Dynasty had helped the Cottage find. Naturally, this could not be hidden from the Royal Xuan Temple. However, their apology seemed to have a deeper meaning.
As for what exactly they talked about, no one knew.
Not long after, the cultivators of the Royal Xuan Temple retreated from Chaoge, but they left one disciple behind. It was Xia Luo, the direct disciple of the first lord.
Then, the Qin Dynasty announced that the contest would resume the next day.
In the inn, the College and the Cottage prepared to leave Chaoge.
Liu Feiyang, Ye Wuchen, and the others were all here with Ye Futian.
In a pavilion, Ye Futian tapped his fingers on the stone table in front of him. Then he looked at Liu Feiyang and asked, "Feiyang, how did you find out that Chu Yaoyao and Jieyu didn't get along that day?"
Liu Feiyang's eyes flashed when he heard Ye Futian's words. Then, he stared at Ye Futian.
Ye Futian's question seemed to have a hidden meaning.
Of course, he knew that Ye Futian wouldn't suspect him.
"In the restaurant, some people were talking about this," Liu Feiyang said. "Then, Wuchen and I went to find you."
Ye Futian was silent and continued tapping the stone table.
"What did you think of?" Liu Chenyu asked.
"It's a coincidence," Ye Futian said softly. "How did the news from the Moon Clan get out? Also, someone happened to be talking about it in the restaurant and you heard it."
Liu Feiyang and Liu Chenyu glanced at each other. They were both shocked. Liu Chenyu said, "You suspect that there's someone behind this?"
"This was definitely done by He Xirou," Ye Futian said. From the beginning to the end, everything pointed to He Xirou. She also used her life to say that other than Luo Junlin, no one else was worthy of her protecting with her life. Therefore, the person who did this had to be He Xirou.
Also, she had brought Hu Tong with her for a long time. Clearly, she wanted to kill him.
But even so, Ye Futian still felt that something was wrong. It wasn't a groundless rumor. It was too much of a coincidence.
Coincidentally, Liu Feiyang received the news that day. Then, he left the inn and was attacked.
If he didn't go out that day, it would be much more difficult to assassinate him.
He Xirou was the one who arranged the assassin, but did someone know and help her?
However, if that was the case, there was something that did not make sense. Perhaps only the people around He Xirou would know about the assassination plan. The Royal Xuan Temple should not be involved in this. After all, the Royal Xuan Temple had no motive to kill him.
"I hope I'm overthinking," Ye Futian said softly. He didn't think about this anymore. He knew that even if there was someone behind this, they couldn't find any evidence. Hu Tong and He Xirou were both dead. How could they investigate?
Then, Ye Futian suddenly smiled. He looked at Ye Wuchen and said, "Wuchen, will you go back to Cangye in a month?"
"I'll try my best." Ye Wuchen nodded. The top forces in the Eastern Barren Territory might be interested in their battle. He could go back and see his family.
"Yes. I'm sure Lord Ye will want to see Chenyu too," Ye Futian said, smiling. Liu Chenyu rolled her eyes and said, "We'll go first."
"Come to the Liu Kingdom when you have the chance," Liu Feiyang said to Ye Futian and Ye Wuchen.
"Yes. I'll definitely go when Wuchen proposes next time," Ye Futian said, smiling. Ye Wuchen was speechless too. Then, he left as well.
The College and the Cottage all departed. They didn't plan to continue participating in the Dongqin College's battles.
…
At the Dongqin College in Chaoge City, Qin Li and Xia Luo arrived at a courtyard.
In front of them, a figure stood there quietly, smiling at Xia Luo. It was Qin Yu.
Xia Luo walked to Qin Yu and bowed. "Qin Luo greets you, Uncle."
Qin Yu nodded with a smile. "Qin Luo, you've worked hard all these years."
"For the revival of the Qin Dynasty. This is nothing." Qin Luo shook his head unconcernedly. His real surname was Qin, the Qin of the Qin Dynasty.
"Yes." Qin Yu nodded. "You're a prince but you were sent away when you were young. If the Qin Dynasty recovers its former glory, we definitely won't let you down."
"Thank you, Uncle." Qin Luo bowed.
"This time, He Yulu agreed to let someone stay for the discussion. Clearly, he hates the Cottage. After you go back, plan well. You must make this happen," Qin Yu said.
"How can He Yulu not hate that his daughter was forced to die? He should hate his own powerlessness. His daughter died in front of him but he couldn't protect her. This powerlessness will naturally turn into hatred and be transferred to the Cottage. As long as there's a chance to deal with the Cottage, I believe He Yulu won't reject it. It's a bit troublesome with my master, but I'll try my best."
Qin Luo nodded. In reality, he had been behind the assassination this entire time. Ever since he found out that He Xirou and Luo Junlin had a grudge against Ye Futian, he began to pay attention to He Xirou. That was why the conversation that day had led to He Xirou acting.
Of course, He Xirou and Luo Junlin couldn't guess anything from that conversation. After all, it was just a casual conversation.
As for clues, the Qin Dynasty didn't need so long to find them. They already knew who it was. However, everything was going according to plan. They were only responsible for guiding. The Cottage would handle the rest.
Qin Yu's eyes flashed with coldness.
That day, the second disciple of the Cottage had descended and destroyed the gate of the Dongqin College, humiliating the Qin Dynasty. Yet, they cooperated with the Cottage's investigation. Did they really think the Qin Dynasty was easy to bully?
"Qin Li, hurry up with Chu Yaoyao," Qin Yu said, looking at Qin Li.
"Yes, Father." Qin Li nodded. Now that Chu Yaoyao was willing to go on a date with him, he'd probably get her soon.
Of course, he also knew that Chu Yaoyao was an extremely smart girl. She wouldn't be like Xirou.
