"Senior Sister, we were wrong." The Dragon Clan leader said helplessly.
Other bigwigs also spoke up, their tones revealing a hint of grievance and accusation.
"Stop cursing, there are outsiders here!"
"That's right, Junior Sister, just be quiet and we won't talk about it."
"Junior sister, this is outrageous! You are the leader of the Black Alliance after all. How can you be so disregarding of your image?"
"Sister, please come and sit down. I will personally pour you some tea."
Dean Ning Zhen sneered, then she sat down again.
The bosses finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Everyone brought the topic back to the matter of the black water in the Thousand Spirits Forest, and discussed together how many people each major force should send and what kind of support they would provide.
…
In full view of everyone, Chen Yan walked out of the restaurant alone and returned to his Shura friends.
A senior sister from the Black Alliance couldn't contain her curiosity and asked, "Junior sister, what did Elder Feng ask you to do in there?"
Chen Yan replied: "I just asked some questions about the Black Water in the Thousand Spirits Forest."
"I see..."
And then, nothing happened.
After a while, Chen Yan found an excuse and left the restaurant.
Just as she was about to return to the Phoenix clan's main home, she seemed to have sensed something and looked towards the gorgeous carriage not far away, only to see the curtains of the carriage swaying in the wind.
Faintly, Chen Yan saw a familiar face.
How could it be him?
——Jin Suizi.
Jin Suizi seemed to notice that someone was looking at him. He looked out the car window but did not see Chen Yan.
At this moment, there was another person in the carriage.
That is the master of the underground trading city, Xie Shiwang.
Xie Shiwang's face was grim, but his hands were unconsciously clenched.
Seeing this, Jin Suizi sneered, "Since you've come to recognize your relatives, then let go. Don't let me look down on you."
Xie Shiwang stared at Jin Suizi with deep eyes without saying a word.
Jin Suizi said with a half-smile: "After all, you are a bastard, and I am also a bastard."
"Shut up!" Xie Shiwang frowned and said in a deep voice, "I recognize my kinship not only for myself, but also for you. I can't transform into a dragon, but you still have a chance. As long as you can enter the dragon pool of the dragon clan, you can become a dragon in one leap."
Jin Suizi looked at him indifferently, as if he wanted to see through his heart.
Xie Shiwang avoided his gaze guiltily.
"Is that all?" Jin Suizi pointed out without hesitation, "Didn't you ask me to take back what originally belonged to you? The position of the Dragon Clan's Young Master? Or perhaps the position of the Dragon Clan's Patriarch?"
Xie Shiwang took a deep breath after hearing this.
He raised his eyes, his expression almost paranoid, and said, "Yes, that's right."
That's what he meant.
…
The other side.
The main family of the Phoenix clan.
Chen Yan successfully returned to the Phoenix clan's main home. Just as she was about to go back to the guest house to hide from others, a waiter came hurriedly.
He bowed his head and said respectfully, "Miss, the Second Young Master invites you."
Chen Yan's expression paused, and she suddenly looked up towards the corridor not far away, only to see a young man in red standing there, his arms folded across his chest, looking calm, with a hint of a smile on the corner of his lips.
The boy had rouge on his face, not thick, but enough to cover up his pale complexion.
Last night he looked as if he was about to die, but now he looks very happy.
It's really troublesome.
Chen Yan walked towards him, surrounded by many waiters and maids coming and going.
"I'm waiting for you here." Feng Huayan raised his eyebrows.
Before Chen Yan could speak, Feng Huayan continued, "I know you will come back."
He waved his hand to clear the others away, then he approached Chen Yan, leaned over slightly, and said in a low voice: "Because you must have taken this opportunity to steal something. Thief."
Chen Yan raised her eyes and looked at him.
Feng Huayan continued, "Are you afraid that I will announce to everyone that you are a thief?"
Chen Yan looked calm, "If you have nothing else to do, I will go back to the guest house."
Feng Huayan frowned suddenly when he heard that. He reached out to grab Chen Yan, but Chen Yan quickly dodged him.
Moreover, Chen Yan gave him an elbow strike.
"Ah!" Feng Huayan almost knelt down in pain. Even though he had rouge on, his complexion still looked very bad.
His cry of pain immediately attracted the attention of the guards.
Just as the guards rushed over, Feng Huayan had already grabbed his chest and forced himself to stand up. He said one word to the guards who came over: "Get out!"
The guards were stunned, and quickly bowed and responded: "Yes!"
Feng Huayan glared at her with gritted teeth, "Why do you hit me where it hurts the most?"
"Sorry." Chen Yan didn't apologize at all.
Feng Huayan took two deep breaths and said coldly, "You did it on purpose!"
"Um."
"You actually admitted it?!"
"Um."
"Hmm what? Speak up!"
"Nothing to say."
"Do you think I won't kill you just because you have something on me?!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Yan raised her eyes to look at the obviously frail young man in front of her, and said clearly, "I won't reveal your secret, so your secret is not my handle."
Feng Huayan was stunned.
"Why?"
"I have no interest in exposing other people's scars, unless they are my enemies."
"I'm not your enemy?" Feng Huayan's voice was low and slow, as if confirming something unbelievable.
