Chapter 150: Wang Ai's Worries, An Unexpected Visitor

~8 min read 1,498 words

In the eyes of Quanzhen or Baiyun Guan, the Ten Elders Wang Family is, in truth, just like that.

"The matter this time is also clear; Lin Xuan did not strike without reason, it is related to the incident four years ago."

Zhao Zong brought up the incident from four years ago, and everyone felt a chill in their hearts.

Those corpses of the All-Sex, everyone here, one by one, had seen the miserable state of those corpses with their own eyes.

At the time, it was to analyze the psychology of the person who struck.

Or rather, a psychological assessment.

It is just that the Company later learned that the person who struck was not Lin Xuan, but the two Snake Immortals by Lin Xuan's side.

If it were not for being by Lin Xuan's side, the Company would not have ignored two snakes that killed so many people.

But since they were by Lin Xuan's side, no one brought this matter up.

The Company's bottom line is, occasionally, also very flexible.

"Sigh, this matter is indeed troublesome. Zhao Zong, why don't we just not intervene? We can keep an eye on it and issue warnings; whoever causes trouble, we deal with them!"

Huang Boren spoke up to suggest.

"I think what Huang says is absolutely correct."

"Huang's words are very true; the Company should still watch how things develop. Rashly intervening might lead to the situation escalating."

"Yes, perhaps the Wang Family will take the initiative to accept their fate and then act with a low profile; that would be best."

"But the Company and the Ten Elders are, after all, in a cooperative relationship. Just standing by and watching the Wang Family's situation like this, isn't that a bit inappropriate?"

"What of it? The Ten Elders haven't spoken up either. By the way, Zhao Zong, throw the matter to the Ten Elders to handle."

A Chairman suddenly slapped his forehead.

The Chairmen present were all stunned, then suddenly realized.

That's right, hand the matter over to the Ten Elders to handle, then set down a charter, and wouldn't everything be solved?

Zhao Zong, upon hearing this, also realized.

It is true; he had been muddled by the matters regarding Quanzhen earlier.

Now that he thinks about it, it is more appropriate for the Ten Elders to handle this matter.

"Very well, later I will contact the Celestial Master and the others to sound them out!"

Zhao Zong nodded.

He was so idle here, not knowing that the Ten Elders were also thinking about throwing the matter to the Company.

In any case, they thought alike, both considering how to shift the blame.

However, Wang Ai, caught in the middle, was in a terrible mood at this moment.

"Great-grandfather!"

Wang Bing was now completely obedient.

Wang Ai, who in Wang Bing's eyes was omnipotent and could settle any matter, had been in emergency care for several days before waking up.

Wang Ai's omnipotent image had already collapsed.

But now, Wang Ai was still Wang Bing's backbone.

"What has happened these past few days?"

More than half of the teeth in Wang Ai's mouth had fallen out, so he spoke with a lisp now, and with half his face somewhat deformed, his pronunciation was also unclear.

But listening carefully, one could still understand what he was saying.

"I don't know. Great-grandfather has been in emergency care these past few days, and I have been guarding here."

Wang Bing immediately shook his head.

Wang Ai struggled, wanting to get up, then gave up.

"The doctor said your face will need surgical adjustment later, and it won't be suitable to use force again after that."

Wang Bing spoke up to remind him.

Wang Ai naturally knew the state of his body now.

But what Wang Ai feared more now was this news.

"My current situation, has it spread?"

Wang Ai asked after a moment of silence.

"That, on Longhu Mountain, many people saw it!"

Wang Bing hesitated for a moment upon hearing this, then told the truth.

Wang Ai's eyes went blank.

"It's over. You immediately notify the family; everyone is to enter a state of alert. For some of the peripheral businesses, if you encounter Outsiders intervening, retreat first; do not let a conflict occur.

If the other party goes too far, fight to the death."

Wang Ai said in a deep voice.

"Understood!"

Wang Bing nodded upon hearing this and turned to make contact.

And Wang Ai, he knew clearly in his heart now that the Wang Family's prestige had been broken, and the most dangerous time for the Wang Family was about to follow.

"Old Wang looks very worried!"

A very young voice rang out.

Wang Ai's expression changed, and he wanted to struggle to get up.

"Old Wang, no need to be nervous; I am here to discuss cooperation."

As he spoke, a figure pushed open the door of the hospital room and walked in.

"You?"

Seeing the person who arrived, Wang Ai was stunned for a moment, then looked him over carefully, and subsequently recognized the person's identity.

"You are that little Daoist boy from beside Tian Jinzhong?"

The person who arrived was none other than Gong Qing.

Gong Qing in casual clothes did indeed look a bit different from Xiao Yuzi, but if one looked carefully, one could naturally recognize him.

"All-Nature Acting Sect Leader Gong Qing, greets Elder Wang!"

All-Nature?

Seeing Gong Qing cupping his hands in salute, Wang Ai's eyes widened abruptly.

"Elder Wang need not be so surprised; it was only to investigate some matters that I stayed on Longhu Mountain for over three years."

Gong Qing walked smilingly to the window of the hospital room, his eyes looking outside.

"What do you want to say?"

Wang Ai's mind raced, and he asked in a deep voice.

An All-Nature Acting Sect Leader, how did such a thing pop up now?

"Simple, I am interested in the affairs of the Jiashen Rebellion back then, and I know that Feng Tianyang, one of those eight people from that time, was captured by the Wang Family.

The Spirit-Binding and General-Ordering currently held by the Wang Family was obtained from his hands."

Gong Qing turned around and said with a smile.

"So what? Feng Tianyang didn't know much either."

Wang Ai shook his head directly.

At the time, he was only concerned with the Eight Extraordinary Techniques; as for the rest, what did it have to do with him?

"He didn't know?"

Gong Qing nodded, his expression unchanged.

"That's fine too; let's talk about the cooperation between All-Nature and the Wang Family. The Wang Family should be in need of some outside help right now, right?"

When Gong Qing spoke, the expression on his face still remained unchanged.

"Cooperate with All-Nature? Are you joking?"

Wang Ai let out a cold snort.

"Elder Wang is a smart man. You know clearly how many people the Wang Family has offended over these years; the current situation is not looking good for the Wang Family.

Of course, I believe the Wang Family can survive this crisis, but after surviving it, what will the Wang Family become?"

Gong Qing's words pierced into Wang Ai's heart like a knife.

"Having contact with All-Nature is the true path to death for the Wang Family!"

Wang Ai was not stupid either.

"Indeed, if the matter were exposed, that would be the case!"

Gong Qing nodded.

"But what if the matter is not exposed? Or rather, All-Nature acts as it pleases by nature, and it is a very normal thing for it to happen to clash with the Wang Family's rivals."

"What exactly do you want?"

Wang Ai frowned.

"You know!" Gong Qing shook his head.

"Spirit-Binding and General-Ordering?" Wang Ai's expression turned gloomy.

"Yes!" Gong Qing did not hesitate.

Wang Ai took a few deep breaths and stared fixedly at Gong Qing with a gloomy gaze.

"How can you guarantee it?"

"I cannot guarantee it; I can only guarantee it with my identity as the All-Nature Acting Sect Leader. Elder Wang can consider it yourself."

"Fine!"

Wang Ai nodded after a long silence.

"I presume Elder Wang will not regret today's decision!"

Hearing Wang Ai agree, Gong Qing nodded, his smile quite bright.

However, this smile appeared somewhat fake.

"Wang Bing!"

Wang Ai was silent for a moment, then suddenly called out.

The door moved, and Wang Bing walked in with a guarded expression.

"Hand over the Spirit-Binding and General-Ordering to him!"

Wang Ai said in a deep voice.

"Great-grandfather!"

Wang Bing had clearly heard the conversation in the room just now.

"Do as I say!"

"Yes!"

Hearing Wang Ai confirm it again, Wang Bing could only follow orders to write down the Secret Technique of the Spirit-Binding and General-Ordering.

As for Gong Qing, he directly asked Wang Ai about Feng Tianyang from back then, and this time Wang Ai did not hide anything, directly recounting the events of that year.
