Chapter 372: Chapter 73: Killing Qi Yao

Lin Jing nodded and said,

“Yes, it was us.”

Zhang Jian’s eyes bulged as if he had been choked, and after a long while, he finally blurted out,

“Good…”

After a moment.

Zhang Jian recovered and addressed Lin Jing,

“Then I’ll come to Li Yan Island a few days later, after I’m done with my affairs, to find you.”

Subsequently, the two boarded the Flying Boat and left the uninhabited island.

No sooner had they returned to Li Yan Island than Yue Qiniang came up to greet them.

“Island Master Lin, you’ve finally returned.”

As she spoke, Yue Qiniang took out two Storage Bags and handed them over:

“These are the Storage Bags of the two Golden Core Cultivators you killed. Please keep them safe, Island Master Lin.”

“Hmm…” Lin Jing nodded, taking the Storage Bags.

He then asked Yue Qiniang,

“How are things now with Qi Yao and that internal traitor?”

Yue Qiniang replied,

“To the Island Master, Qi Yao is now under supervision in the council hall in Li Yan City, and the traitor has also been captured.”

Lin Jing nodded his head and then inquired, “Who is the traitor?”

“To the Island Master, the traitor is Wang Pan.”

“Wang Pan, it turned out to be him…” Lin Jing frowned and said.

“Yes…” Yue Qiniang lowered her head.

Lin Jing was also aware of Wang Pan.

He hadn’t previously followed Dai Mao, but was an indigenous Cultivator of Li Yan Island.

After driving Dai Mao away, he had kept a low profile.

In particular, during the construction of Li Yan City, he had been very dedicated, even providing several professional suggestions, earning Yan Wanfei’s high regard.

He was even granted a certain amount of authority.

However, it was never expected that he would be a traitor.

“Let’s go, we’ll go see them…”

As Lin Jing’s words fell, Yue Qiniang spoke up, unable to help but express her concern,

“Island Master Lin, that Yuxing Island Master…”

“Don’t worry, the Yuxing Island Master has already fallen…”

After Lin Jing finished speaking, he headed towards Li Yan City.

Yue Qiniang breathed a sigh of relief and closely followed Lin Jing towards Li Yan City.

…

The council hall in Li Yan City was within the Island Lord Mansion.

However, this Island Lord Mansion was merely used for routine meetings, as the several island masters, like Lin Jing, usually did not reside here.

Since they had taken over the entire island, it was natural to start governing it.

And as they all lacked the spare time to govern, they entrusted the management to local Cultivators like Yue Qiniang.

They allowed them to self-manage, while the island masters, as the highest martial force on the island,

would only take action if there was an invasion by external enemies.

Upon arriving at the council hall, two Cultivators responsible for supervising Qi Yao and Wang Pan stood up, and respectfully addressed Lin Jing,

“Island Master Lin…”
