The reason was that Niu Youdao was cunning and Feng Entai might have fallen into Niu Youdao's trap.
Even if Feng Entai was in the wrong, it was all because of Niu Youdao. The Heavenly Jade Gate would not help Niu Youdao clean up after him.
After handing the items over to Niu Youdao, Niu Youdao could keep them for himself, give them away, or sell them for money. The Heavenly Jade Gate would not interfere and let Niu Youdao do whatever he wanted with them. In short, they could not have anything to do with the Heavenly Jade Gate.
If Niu Youdao did not agree and caused trouble for the Heavenly Jade Gate, Niu Youdao would not have an easy time either. The Heavenly Jade Gate would not care if the profits from the drinks would be damaged or not. They would immediately send people to Qingshan County and wipe out the three sects and all of Niu Youdao's forces.
Of course, the Heavenly Jade Gate was not a person who would go back on their word. However, the condition was that the Heavenly Jade Gate would not be in danger. As long as Niu Youdao agreed, the Heavenly Jade Gate would honor Feng Entai's promise and the profits from the drinks. Peng Youdao had used his position as the Gate Master to guarantee that he would not go back on his word!
Lastly, the letter clearly stated that Feng Entai could read this letter for Niu Youdao to read!
Even Linghu Qiu's teeth hurt from reading the contents of the letter.
Niu Youdao's expression calmed down and he handed the letter back to Feng Entai.
Feng Entai received the letter and returned it to the disciple beside him. He smiled at Niu Youdao and asked, "Brother, do you understand?"
Niu Youdao replied casually, "Brother Feng, I forgot to tell you that I was born in the mountains. There are many words that I can't read and can't understand. I'm too lazy to read it. Aiya, the weather is good today. "He placed his hands behind his back and prepared to leave.
"Cough cough!" Linghu Qiu coughed dryly. It was painful for him to hold back his laughter.
"…" Feng Entai was dumbfounded. Illiterate? What kind of lousy reason was that? He hurriedly grabbed him and snatched the letter back from the disciple's hands, shoving it into Niu Youdao's hands. "Brother, take another look."
"What are you looking at? I said I can't read, so I can't read. You guys can take your time." Niu Youdao refused to take over.
"Don't!" Feng Entai grabbed him and refused to let go. "You don't understand. Can I read it to you?"
Niu Youdao suddenly turned around and snatched the letter. He pointed at Feng Entai's nose and scolded, "The one with the surname Feng, you know better than anyone else what happened. What do you mean I am cunning? What do you mean you fell into my trap? Tell me honestly, what kind of bullsh * t did you report in order to shirk responsibility? "
"Impudent!" The Heavenly Jade School's disciple who was standing at the side could not take it anymore. He stepped forward and stopped Niu Youdao from being rude to his Martial Uncle.
"Do you want to fight? Hehe! I can't wait for that to happen. Let's blow this matter up together! "Niu Youdao sneered and shouted angrily," Men! "
"Crash!" A group of cultivators immediately rushed in from outside. The room suddenly felt crowded.
"Who do you think you are? Since when was it your turn to stand up for me?" Niu Youdao pointed at the Heavenly Jade School's disciple and beckoned him with his finger. "Come on, show me if you have the guts. Do you believe that I won't kill you and you'll die in vain? I guarantee that Peng won't say a word again!"
The disciple immediately flew into a rage out of humiliation. He gripped the hilt of his sword.
"Get out. Get lost. This has nothing to do with you. Why are you poking your nose in?" Feng Entai dragged the disciple away and waved his hand to signal the other unrelated people to leave as well.
Black Peony nodded. The disciples of the three sects left one after another.
The Heavenly Jade School's disciple had no choice but to leave in humiliation.
However, Niu Youdao urged him to stay. "Don't go. I don't like your Heavenly Jade School. Peng is here. Why are all your disciples useless?"
That disciple suddenly turned around to look, yet Feng Entai was waving his hand and telling him to leave quickly. After that, Feng Entai said to Niu Youdao with a smile, "Little Brother, is there a need for you to go against him? You're looking for trouble on purpose! "
Niu Youdao chuckled. "I'm looking for trouble on purpose. I don't like the Heavenly Jade School. What's wrong with scolding them a little? Do you have a problem with that?"
"No problem, no problem. Calm down, Little Brother. Calm down." Feng Entai patted the back of Miao Yi's hand and comforted him. "Business is more important. Solving business is more important!"
Niu Youdao said, "If it's more important, why don't you hurry up and solve it?"
Feng Entai said, "Why are you pretending to be illiterate? You've seen the contents of the letter. Master has ordered that this matter will be handed over to you. I don't dare to disobey!"
Niu Youdao said, "Me? Tell me, how am I supposed to solve it? "
Feng Entai coughed dryly. "Wasn't it written very clearly in the letter? You can keep it, give it to someone, or sell it for money." Even he felt guilty saying this.
Niu Youdao said, "Yo! You make it sound so simple. Then what's the difference between you handling it and me handling it? Old Feng, how incompetent are you? How worried are the Heavenly Jade Sect that they don't dare to let you handle such a simple matter! Why did the Heavenly Jade Sect send you here? "
Feng Entai was slightly plump and amiable, just like his appearance. He could endure humiliation. He sighed and said, "Little Brother, I admit that I'm not as good as you, okay? You better hurry up and deal with it! I can't delay any longer. "
Niu Youdao said, "How do I deal with it? Me keeping it? You want me to keep something that you don't dare to keep? I'm more tired of living than seeking death! Give it to someone? How? Give it to who? Who would dare to accept it openly? What's the use of giving it secretly? Even if I secretly give it out, I'm afraid the other party will be the first to silence me! Sell it for money? Who would dare to buy it openly? There are so many people watching outside. Who do you think I should sell it to? Teach me how to sell it? Even if I destroy it in front of everyone, the Emperor will be the first to find trouble with me. The first person he wants to kill is me! "
"Surnamed Feng, I say you're good. You're the one who caused the trouble, and now you want me to clean up your mess? You asked me to help you stabilize the situation, and this is the result? The Heavenly Jade Gate gave me this? I trusted you so much, and this is how you repay me? "He slapped the letter in his hand and scolded.
Feng Entai said awkwardly, "If you didn't provoke that Princess Royal, there wouldn't be this trouble."
Niu Youdao chuckled. "Fine, we'll go our separate ways. We'll solve our own problems and have nothing to do with each other! Your Heavenly Jade Gate can do whatever you want in Verdant Mountain County, but I won't return to Verdant Mountain County, okay? I don't believe that I can't live after leaving your Heavenly Jade Gate. "
"Sigh!" Feng Entai pulled him back again. "Little Brother, calm down, calm down. It was my slip of the tongue, my slip of the tongue! What I meant was, we can still think of another way. "
Niu Youdao said, "Fine, help me think of a way. As long as you can think of a good way, it's not impossible for me to step in."
Feng Entai sighed. "If I had a way, I would have told you long ago. Would I have waited until now? Aren't you making things difficult for me? "
"Fine!" Niu Youdao's tone changed rapidly, and he said calmly, "I won't make things difficult for you. It's my bad luck to have met you guys. How about this, you guys leave, and I'll take responsibility for this, okay?"
Linghu Qiu, Hei Peony, and the others immediately looked at him.
Feng Entai was stunned. "Really?"
Niu Youdao nodded. "Can't be faked. You guys can leave."
Feng Entai said, "Fine. Give me the contract I wrote first."
Niu Youdao pointed at the brazier at the side and pointed at the ashes of the things that Yuan Gang had sent over. "Burn it!"
"Burn it?" Feng Entai couldn't believe it. He immediately ran to the brazier to take a look, and his expression instantly twitched. He realized that there was something wrong with the ashes. He had only written a thin piece of paper, so how could there be so many ashes? He straightened up and said, "Little Brother, stop joking."
Niu Youdao said, "I'm not joking. Are you guys leaving or not? If you're not leaving, then we're leaving. "
"Little Brother, you can scold and quarrel all you want, but I've done something wrong. I've endured it, and I've admitted it. But I have no way out. It's useless even if you kill me." Feng Entai muttered a few words, then crossed his arms and looked up at the ceiling. He looked like he was unwilling to leave.
Why should he leave? He couldn't leave. How could he leave without getting the things he had written? As soon as he left, Yuan Gang would immediately take out the proof and say that he had given the things to the Heavenly Jade Sect. With so many people chasing after him, could he escape the Kingdom of Qi? Even if he escaped, what would he do about the trouble he would bring to the Heavenly Jade Sect?
If Niu Youdao didn't hand over the things he had written, he wouldn't let Niu Youdao go.
While Feng Entai wasn't paying attention, Niu Youdao gave Linghu Qiu a look.
Linghu Qiu understood and pulled Feng Entai out. "Old Feng, go out first. I'll help you persuade him."
"Don't try to fool me. If he runs away, who am I going to look for?"
"Why are you trying to fool me? You can just have someone stand guard."
After Feng Entai was taken away, the room became quiet. Niu Youdao, who was furious just a moment ago, suddenly calmed down. He walked to the side of the table and sat down. He looked at the secret letter from the Heavenly Jade School and the ten official documents on the table, frowning in silence.
"Daoye, what should we do? Are we really going to give up on Verdant Mountain County? "Black Peony stepped forward and asked softly.
"Ai!" Niu Youdao sighed softly, "His Highness has placed high hopes on me, and the princess has condescended to comb my hair like a maid for many years. How can this friendship be so easily forsaken? If I really did that, I would really become a vile person who goes back on his word. It's a pity to abandon the foundation I've laid there. People who abandon their master will look down on you and start anew in another place. They won't necessarily trust you. They won't be as lenient to us as the Prince and the Princess. Although the Heavenly Jade Sect has gone overboard, we can't afford to let anything happen to them right now. We still need their protection. "
Black Peony asked, "Then what did you say to Feng Entai just now …"
"Do you think I was too hot-tempered?" Niu Youdao chuckled. "Let him know that I'm indeed in a difficult situation. Only then can I force him to give in. Only then will the Heavenly Jade Sect know that they owe us. If I take on this matter too quickly, won't they think that it's only right for me to work like an ox or a horse?"
The sound of footsteps came from outside. The conversation in the room immediately stopped.
Linghu Qiu walked in with large strides and sat beside Niu Youdao. "What do you mean by asking me to get him out? Do you really want to take on this matter? "
Niu Youdao said, "Now that things have come to this, let's take one step at a time. Elder Brother, I need your help right now. "
Linghu Qiu smiled wryly. "Don't make things difficult for me. This so-called network of mine is just a nice way of putting it. I'm actually just a broker who pulls strings and bridges. I'm not as capable as you think I am. Based on the Qi Emperor's influence, I'm afraid I won't even be enough to fill the gaps between his teeth. Brother, I really don't know how to deal with this matter! "
Niu Youdao said, "Elder Brother, let me finish first. It won't be too late to refuse after that."
Linghu Qiu said, "Speak."
