Chapter 962: All Bastards
"Senior Sister, we were wrong." The Dragon Clan Chief 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, we won't say anything."
"Junior sister, how can this be so disrespectful? You are the leader of the Black Clothes Alliance after all, how can you be so careless about 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 breathed a sigh of relief.
Everyone brought the topic back to the matter of the black water in the Thousand Spirit 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 sister from the Black Clothes Alliance couldn't hold back her curiosity and asked, "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 looked towards the gorgeous carriage not far away as if she had sensed something, and saw 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 of 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 gloomy, but his hands were unconsciously clenched.
Seeing this, Jin Suizi sneered, "Since you have 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 cannot 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 young master of the Dragon Clan? Or the position of the chief of the Dragon Clan?"
Xie Shiwang heard this and took a deep breath.
He raised his eyes, his eyes almost paranoid, and said, "Yes, that's right."
That was 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 her whereabouts, a waiter came hurriedly.
He bowed his head and said respectfully, "Miss, the second young master invites you."
Chen Yan's expression paused, she suddenly looked up in the direction of the corridor not far away, and saw a young man in red standing there, with his arms folded across his chest, looking calm, with a hint of smile on the corners 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 proud and triumphant.
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 knew you would come.”
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 asked again: "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 stretched out his hand to grab Chen Yan, but Chen Yan quickly dodged him.
And, Chen Yan gave him an elbow.
"Ah!" Feng Huayan almost knelt down in pain. Even though he had put on rouge, his complexion still looked terrible.
His cry of pain immediately attracted the attention of the guards.
Just as the guards rushed over, Feng Huayan had already covered his chest and stood up. He said one word to the guards who came over: "Get lost!"
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 show any apology.
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 if you catch me?!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Yan raised her eyes to look at the obviously weak 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 the other party is an enemy."
"I'm not your enemy?" Feng Huayan's voice was low and slow, as if confirming something unbelievable.
His fingers were curled slightly.
He narrowed his eyes, his gaze as sharp as torches, and stared closely at the person in front of him. Several complex emotions flashed through his eyes, including confusion, surprise, and a hint of indescribable expectation.
Then he actually laughed out loud, "You still want to be my friend? Fine, I want you to listen to me from now on and put me first in everything... Hey, I haven't finished yet! Don't leave!"
Before he could finish his words, he saw Chen Yan turn around and leave, and he hurriedly followed.
"Did you hear that?"
He asked.
"I think you are a bit narcissistic." Chen Yan finally couldn't help it.
"You actually scolded me?!" Feng Huayan gritted his teeth, looking very angry, but his eyes were bright, and he threatened: "Don't scold me in the future!"
Chen Yan said expressionlessly: "You go back and recuperate."
"I'm much better now." Feng Huayan snorted softly, "You don't have to worry about me too much."
Chen Yan: “…” She asked him to go back and recuperate because she was annoyed with him.
He couldn't understand his own subtext.
"What's your name?"
“…Chen Xingke.”
"My name is Feng Huayan."
Chen Yan: “…”
"Since you are sincere in wanting to make friends with me, I will also give you some sincerity." Feng Huayan suddenly transmitted his voice, his tone much more serious, "I will help you lead away most of the guards, but you can handle the secret guards in the middle pavilion by yourself."
"If you are caught, just kill yourself. Because I won't save you."
His voice was cold and emotionless.
Upon hearing this, Chen Yan thoughtfully asked, "How are you going to help me lure the guards away?"
Feng Huayan's eyes became dark and unclear, and his voice was extremely cold: "Of course...burn down the Qingdong Pavilion of the young master of the Phoenix Clan."
