Chapter 834

"Long time no see!"

Upon seeing Tian Ze, who was wearing Baiyue attire, Yan Lingji greeted him calmly.

Beside Tian Ze, Wushuang Gui, Qu Shi Mo, and Bai Du Wang stood quietly. Compared to back then, their appearances had all changed to some degree. However, at this moment, the gazes they cast toward Yan Lingji were somewhat subtle.

After the affairs of the State of Han were settled in the past, Tian Ze returned to Baiyue with the heavily injured Wushuang Gui, Qu Shi Mo, and Bai Du Wang, intending to take back everything that belonged to him. Of all the people who had followed Tian Ze back then, Yan Lingji was the only one who did not follow him back to Baiyue. Although there were extenuating circumstances, in the eyes of these few, Yan Lingji was ultimately a traitor.

If they never met again, that would be one thing.

Yet, today, after many years had passed, they saw Yan Lingji once again.

"What have you come to find me for?"

Tian Ze looked at Yan Lingji, his voice cold.

Although you have changed your allegiance to another, after meeting again after so many years, and with that person not by your side, you refuse to even call me master. Or is it that you have already forgotten me?

Yan Lingji's attitude made Tian Ze feel some displeasure.

"I want you to help us!"

Yan Lingji ignored Tian Ze's cold attitude and spoke directly.

"Help you?" Tian Ze's eyes flickered slightly, and soon, he guessed what the 'us' in Yan Lingji's words meant. "You have changed!"

"Oh? How have I changed?" Yan Lingji's voice was soft.

Tian Ze's tone contained traces of anger. "Do not forget, you are a Baiyue person!"

"You are actually helping the Qin Guo to deal with Baiyue!"

This was the point of Tian Ze's anger and resentment. If Yan Lingji had merely acknowledged Su Xuan as her master, that would be one thing; Su Xuan was a powerhouse, and it was not shameful for the weak to attach themselves to the strong.

Yet, after acknowledging Su Xuan as her master, Yan Lingji had actually forgotten her identity as a Baiyue person, and now, she was even helping the Qin people to conquer Baiyue.

This was clearly treating herself as a Qin person.

Tian Ze also knew about the Qin Guo mobilizing hundreds of thousands of troops to conquer Baiyue this time. Although he was not prepared to help the Minyue King resist the Qin army, he had no good feelings toward the Qin people either. If the Minyue King Zou Wuzhu, that half-brother of his, was unable to resist the Qin army, he would not mind stepping forward to turn the tide and rout the Qin army. Of course, the price would be that he would replace him and become the new Minyue King.

"Why? Can I not help the Qin Guo?"
