After listening to my plan, Jiang Man took a deep breath: "Duan Shenxing, don't you think we're getting bogged down in this Wang Qing matter? Our initial goal was just to find out the identities of these two senior and junior disciples, but now we've unknowingly gotten involved in their conflict, and their opponent may even have some connection with the higher-ups of Fengmen Village."

Having been in Fengmen Village for so long, we feel like caged canaries, confined to their designated cages. This means we are destined to be different from the people of Fengmen Village! They can watch our every move from a god-like perspective, but we don't even have the strength to fight back. This situation makes me feel extremely uncomfortable.

If we get into trouble because of Wang Qing and offend the people of Fengmen Village, the consequences will be unimaginable, and it could even cause our entire plan to collapse!

“I’ve considered what you’ve said, but if Duan Jinyan’s men really have entered Fengmen Village, they must be between Wang Qing and that guy with the pigtail. As long as we can confirm that Wang Qing’s identity is innocent, then we’ve already achieved our goal! But in that case, we’ll have to place our hopes on Wei Shengnan and the others!”

I paused for a moment: "Or rather, we've realized we're already in deep trouble, but it's too late. I can't just stand by and watch the monkey die because this is risky, can I?"

"What if we could drag Wei Shengnan into this?"

Jiang Man reminded her, "Although we had a clear division of labor at the beginning, with us in charge of Wang Qing and Wei Shengnan in charge of that little trick, they still haven't sent any intelligence back, which is illogical. Since we've decided to cooperate, we can't just make all the sacrifices. If there are any risks involved, they, as the beneficiaries, should also bear some responsibility, shouldn't they?"

Without hesitation, I waved my hand and said, "No, Wei Shengnan cannot be involved in this matter."

Jiang Man's expression changed immediately upon hearing my words: "Duan Shenxing, what do you mean? Even at this point, you're still protecting that woman, is that it?"

"Of course not, I was thinking of the bigger picture."

I shook my head: "We used Wei Shengnan's identity to lure out Qu Xuelin and send the 'Yanwang Tumor' to the auction. If we let her participate in the operation to capture Qu Xuelin, once her identity is exposed, the other side can easily figure out that we are in cahoots. If Wei Shengnan and the others are implicated or expelled from Fengmen Village, we will have no allies here!"

Although I've never really trusted Wei Shengnan and her group, there's no denying that in Fengmen Village, we're the only team we can rely on.

Jiang Man ignored my explanation and remained hostile towards Wei Shengnan: "In the end, you still want to protect that woman!"

Seeing her angry expression, I suddenly felt completely overwhelmed.

Within our respective teams, Qu Ruilin and I have always disliked each other, Monkey has also become enemies with Song Laosan because of Far East's betrayal, and now even Jiang Man is full of hostility towards Wei Shengnan.

Unbeknownst to us, the feud between our two groups has become increasingly intertwined and seems to be deepening.

...

Wang Qing claims to be a descendant of the Sage of Medicine, but I am not a medical student, so I don't know who this so-called Sage of Medicine is referring to.

But this guy's methods of saving lives are indeed better than using poison.

After buying the necessary tools, he treated Lin Que's wounds in just half an hour and assured me that as long as she rested, Lin Que would not have any aftereffects.

The ambush at Auction House No. 4 and the kidnapping of the monkey completely enraged me.

After entrusting Lin Que to Wei Shengnan's care, I began my revenge plan.

Inside my dwelling, Wang Qing used a heavy object to weigh down the silk thread tied to the Tianya Tiger Armor and said, "This insect is still active, which means it can still find the person who attacked us. The other party should not have left Fengmen Village yet. The problem now is how we find that guy."

"Finding him is easy, but I'm worried that even if we find him, we might become his opponent."

Jiang Man sighed: "When we were attacked before, Tianya Hujia sensed the other party's presence, but that person did not appear. Moreover, his purpose is not hard to guess. He must want us to exchange the Yama Tumor for Monkey. Judging from the scale of the previous attack, they must have a lot of people. If we find him but fail to defeat him, it will be too embarrassing."

"No, he won't have many people around him."

I thought for a moment and waved my hand: "As I said before, if this person wants to resolve the issue with us privately, he must have some connection with a high-ranking official in Fengmen Village. The official can tolerate his misbehavior at the bottom, but will definitely not let him be too ostentatious. So this person should be quite low-key."

With Tianya Hujia leading the way, we can thoroughly investigate this person's background first. Currently, the other party hasn't proposed exchanging the monkey for the Yama's cancerous tumor, so it's time to lower our guard.

"I'm more worried about something else."

Wang Qing sniffed: "When we attended the auction before, Number Four spoke with you and Miss Jiang, so when they came to kidnap people, their primary target was definitely one of you. Later, they took the monkey away, probably because they were afraid Wang Hong would poison them, and they had no choice but to retreat. They only took the monkey away because they had no other option! If this person finds out that they have kidnapped the wrong person, will they kill them to silence them?"

"Impossible! Killing someone directly would only provoke us and wouldn't achieve anything. Even if they really intended to kill us, they would wait until negotiations break down before doing so. At most, they would use torture to extract a confession and investigate our background."

Thinking about the monkey's situation, I couldn't help but feel a little worried: "We shouldn't delay, let's go find that number four and find out his location first."

When I spoke, everyone stood up, and Wang Qing released the Sky Tiger Armor again.

These little insects move very fast; once they leave the house, they always travel in one direction.

After about an hour, we had walked several kilometers and were standing at the end of a cave at the southernmost point.

The path ahead of us was now blocked, but the insect was still circling the wall and constantly trying to crawl into the cracks.

Wang Qing pulled the rope and dragged the Tianya Tiger Armor out of the crevice. He said to me, "It seems your guess was correct. Fengmen Village is indeed a very large space. The area we can live in is only a small part of it."
