Chapter 186 - Grandmother’s Tactic (2/2)

Long Yifey and Xie Xiaofeng bobbed their heads. They were clueless as to why Huangpu Tianyuan shifted gear like a teenager, but they agreed in a heartbeat.

You Wanshan’s side had their faces twitching. And Huangpu Tianyuan’s amiable smile almost had them spurt blood.

[Curses! Are you playing with us?]

[Did you just use us knowing our motives earlier to paint us the villains while making you the benevolent hero?]

[This damn Regent Estate is a den of bastards.]

You Wanshan’s side glanced at each other, looking as if they swallowed a fly.

They all then started to discuss how to deal with Zhuo Fan, but came up empty. Huangpu Tianyuan then adjourned the meeting, for the house lords to get some rest.

When Chu Bijun left, Huangpu Tianyuan never let her out of his sight.

“This damn hag is back to her old tricks!” When all left, Huangpu Tianyuan spoke faintly.

Nodding, Leng Wuchang smiled, “Yes, hitting us right where it hurts. The hag saw your motive with a glance and threw a wrench in your Demon Purging Decree. From what I’ve seen, the Drifting Flowers Edifice may be the weakest house, but Chu Bijun isn’t easy to deal with. At least, far more troublesome than Long Yifey and Xie Xiaofeng working together.”

“Indeed. With this hag back, the Drifting Flowers Edifice is going to be a hard pill to swallow!” Huangpu Tianyuan sighed.

You Wanshan’s group suddenly appeared in the hall.

Already knowing they’d come, Leng Wuchang waved them off with a smile, “I know what’s on your minds, but please relax. We have no ill will towards any of you. Estate Lord only changed his decision on the spur of the moment.”

Startled, You Wanshan’s group held Leng Wuchang in even greater admiration.

“Sir is an outstanding strategist. It is indeed why we came here yet you could tell with a single look!”

“Please, you’re too kind. I only have people’s best intentions in mind.” Leng Wuchang smiled.

“But Sir Leng, Estate Lord, how are we to get rid of Zhuo Fan?” You Wanshan frowned.

Hell Valley and Zhuo Fan’s grudges were bone-deep. They only cared about seeing Zhuo Fan dead.

Huangpu Tianyuan and Leng Wuchang laughed.

“Valley Lord You, a pup has you running scared? Look at you shaking in worry over there,you are bringing disgrace to the seven houses.” Huangpu Tianyuan mocked him.

Leng Wuchang’s eyes flashed, “Valley Lord You, haven’t we already sent a team to intercept him?”

“And if it fails? Isn’t this the reason for the Demon Purging Decree?” This was You Wanshan and the others’ biggest worry.

Huangpu Tianyuan rejected, “You think a mere Bone Tempering kid is worthy of the Demon Purging Decree? The decree is only a means to an end, a convenient excuse.”

You Wanshan blinked baffled.

Leng Wuchang looked unperturbed, “I may not know much about him, but three houses send two Profound Heaven experts after him. The chance of success is over 90%. But just now, it became 100%!”

“Oh, what makes you so sure of success, Sir Leng?” Huangpu Tianyuan raised an eyebrow. Even he was curious.

Leng Wuchang grinned, “Because our guest Venerable, Leng Wuchang, volunteered as well.”

“He’s going too, whatever for?” Huangpu Tianyuan was startled.

“Why else? He must have heard of the kid’s exploits in Drifting Flowers City and plans on taking Zhuo Fan’s cultivation method for himself. That martial fanatic knows when to be serious only when these things are involved.”

“Humph, what a fool. He is Regent Estate’s guest Venerable, with Imperial Tyrant Body Art at his disposal, and yet here he is coveting an outsider’s cultivation method.” Huangpu Tianyuan snorted.

Leng Wuchang shook his hand indifferently, “It doesn’t matter. With Elder Li’s character, he’ll definitely kill the kid afterward. The brat’s fate is sealed.”

You Wanshan’s group was overjoyed at the news.

Now that a Radiant Stage expert set his eyes on Zhuo Fan, he would die for sure no matter how skilled he was.

Yet to their complete lack of knowledge of the situation, that giddy Radiant Stage expert who went to rob and kill, got turned instead.

Even Leng Wuchang would be so shocked his eyes would pop out of their sockets…
