He only wanted to fight with this so-called Marquess Ning. Even if he could not defeat him, there would always be a way to escape. However.. “Jiuyue, promise me that you won’t move no matter what happens.”
“Of course,” An Jiuyue replied without hesitation.
Why would she move? No matter how powerful Marquess Ning was, she could always pull a trump card. The Points Mall wasn’t built for nothing. She could get a few paper effigies to spar with him.
Then they would see how powerful Marquess Ning really was!
“Don’t worry, I won’t do anything. At most, I’ll find a few helpers to help me,” she said.
“Okay.” Qian Jiyun was relieved to hear that.
“But are you sure Marquess Ning will come?” An Jiuyue asked again.
Why would Marquess Ning come here personally knowing that there was an inescapable net waiting for him? He didn’t sound that stupid, right?
“He’ll come.” Qian Jiyun smiled confidently.
Zhan Beiye’s words implied that Marquess Ning was very confident in his cultivation.
If he did not come, it would be a waste of his effort in traveling to Duoya City. Moreover, the fact that he even brought Zhan Beixiao back showed just how confident he was.
“He has to come if he wants to restore Zhan Beixiao’s lost dignity.”
To put it bluntly, he was here for Zhan Beixiao. As long as he could injure Zhan Beiye or do something to An Jiuyue, he would be able to protect Zhan Beixiao once he returned to Zhanling Empire.
Otherwise, with Zhan Beixiao’s defeat and his killing of the deputy generals, the Zhanling Emperor would be unable to protect his son.
The ministers would not indulge Zhan Beixiao anymore.
“Marquess Ning is going all out for his grandson, Zhan Beixiao,” An Jiuyue said with a smile.
Just as Qian Jiyun had expected, Marquess Ning really arrived.
He did not look for Zhan Beiye. Instead, he went straight to the courtyard where Qian Jiyun and An Jiuyue stayed and surveyed it from the roof.
That night, the Furong Courtyard was brightly lit.
An Jiuyue sat on a rattan chair in the courtyard, eating pastries. Qian Jiyun sat on a stone stool with a pot of tea in front of him.
“Marquess Ning is here; why doesn’t he reveal himself?”
He poured two cups of tea, picked up one of them, and flung it to the side with Original Soul energy.
Marquess Ning stood on the roof and watched as the teacup flew towards his face. The powerful Original Soul energy almost forced him to take a step back. He marveled at this person’s cultivation level.
He raised his hand, channeling Original Soul energy into his palms to slow down the teacup until he finally grasped it in his hand. “Well played, Zhan Beiye!”
His eyes darkened as he looked at the teacup in his hand.
Indeed, well played, Zhan Beiye! He had kept his highly formidable “brother” so well-hidden!
He did not think someone like Zhan Beiye would call anyone his brother. This person must be the strategist Zhan Beiye recruited, right?
If he were a strategist, he would be Zhan Beiye’s subordinate.
But why would someone with such a high cultivation level become Zhan Beiye’s subordinate? Someone like that should be working for Zhanling Empire.
He shifted his gaze from the teacup to the two people in the courtyard.
Could he recruit them if he offered them a hefty sum? Or could he lure them in with power and influence?
