Chapter 4868: Just Ask
Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations
Huang Yueli saw that Xuan Jiuling didn’t know the inside story so she didn’t continue to ask and changed the topic.
“We can’t guess Divine Doctor Zhang’s thoughts, so let’s talk about my Senior Brother. Since An Zhenyu had been staying in Snowflake City in order to obtain Divine Doctor Zhang’s legacy, did that mean…My Senior Brother and Miss Qingling are still in the city?”
Xuan Jiuling was much clearer about this problem.
He hurriedly nodded.” The two of them are indeed still in the city. After finding out that Young Master Liu was taken away by Young Master An, I personally went to the White Swamp Race to ask for someone. However, An Zhenyu insisted that Young Master Liu had deliberately set Qingling up to get close to the Black Tortoise Race and defiled his fiancée. He refused to let her go, and Qingling was also found and taken away by his people.”
” Matriarch Huang, you should know that our patriarch is heavily injured and needs the help of the White Fen Clan’s patriarch. I can’t offend the White Fen Clan too much, so I can only persuade them nicely. However, An Zhenyu’s attitude is unyielding and he refuses to let them go.”
” I even sent a trusted aide to the Black Turtle State, hoping that the patriarch could find a way to mediate with the White Fen Tribe. However, it has been several months and there is still no reply.”
” However, I’ve been sending people to monitor the temporary base of the White Fen Tribe. Although Young Master Liu and Qingling have been detained, their lives should be safe. I can guarantee that.”
Xuan Jiuling sighed as a guilty look appeared on his face as he cupped his hands towards Huang Yueli and Li Moying,” This old man is really useless, I have failed the two of you…”
Huang Yueli frowned as she raised her hand to support Xuan Jiuling,” Divine General Xuan, there’s no need for you to be like this, please sit down.”
Although she was displeased, she didn’t intend to vent her anger on Xuan Jiuling.
She could understand why Xuan Jiuling was in such a predicament.
Although Xuan Jiuling was already a Six-star Divine General, he was still a member of the Black Tortoise Clan. In the God Realm, the warriors of the God Clan were taught from a young age that nothing was more important than the honor of the clan. All the clansmen had to obey the orders of the Clan Leader.
Now that the Black Tortoise Clan’s Patriarch’s life was still in the hands of the White Fen Clan, Xuan Jiuling naturally wouldn’t treat Liu Buyan as more important than his own Clan Leader. To make him betray the clan just for a promise, to fall out with the White Fen Clan’s Young Master, it wasn’t realistic at all.
At least Xuan Jiuling had thought of a way to save Liu Buyan’s life and even brought the latest news over which was still helpful to her.
Xuan Jiuling saw that Huang Yueli’s face didn’t show any anger and the heart that had been hanging in the air for several months finally relaxed by half.
He thought for a while and said in a low voice,” Matriarch Huang, Young Master Li, you two are magnanimous and won’t argue with me. However, I’ve indeed let you down. If there’s anything I can help you with, I’ll make it up to you. Please don’t treat me as an outsider. Just ask.”
Huang Yueli had already recovered from her deep thoughts and immediately opened her mouth to speak: ” I still have a matter that I need to trouble Lord Divine General with.”
