Chapter 730: Fated to Meet and Part! (1/2)

Anyone else would have panicked at the moment, but Bai Xiaofei did not. He even smiled, because he knew that Leng Hen’s anger was not directed at him.

“As merciless as possible, of course,” replied Bai Xiaofei. He knew that Leng Hen wanted a reason from him. A reason to handle Orton!

Leng Hen was not a fool. Orton’s actions at the Holy Snow Mountain were definitely not on a whim. If he really cared about Leng Hen and the Snow Kingdom, he wouldn’t have done all that. Since he did, it only meant one thing: Orton’s priority was no longer the Snow Kingdom, but himself.

Leng Hen could not have neglected this kind of change that could not have happened overnight, not to mention that Orton had not made any effort to hide it at all. As early as Leng Hen’s daughters were born, Orton no longer had any need to!

“Orton and his son have offended two of the three legends and a group of mysterious Exquisite Rank experts. Although the Snow Kingdom is strong, wasn’t our party able to fight all the way to the palace today? Orton has been ignoring the safety of the kingdom and its future. Everything he has done is enough to put the kingdom in a dangerous situation. If this is not dealt with, the Snow Kingdom will become chaotic.”

Bai Xiaofei commented from an overall perspective with the whole kingdom as the big picture. He didn’t even mention Leng Hen. From the triplets, he had learned that Leng Hen and Orton had been through life-and-death battles together.

“Then, how do you suggest I handle this?” Leng Hen threw out a difficult problem.

If Bai Xiaofei suggested something too cruel, Leng Hen would definitely be unhappy since he was obviously concerned about the relationship between him and Orton, otherwise, he wouldn’t have allowed things to get to this state. However, if Bai Xiaofei suggested something too light, the punishment would be pointless and only make Orton more careful in the future, and he would likely become extreme.

In fact, Leng Mark couldn’t think of an answer himself. Since Bai Xiaofei was here, he suddenly had a whim to ask Bai Xiaofei this question.

To his surprise, however, Bai Xiaofei not only understood his intentions but also provided a perfect answer!

“First, seek him out in private and tell him that you must provide a settlement under the pressure of the three legends and Starnet Academy or else the Snow Kingdom will be in trouble. But, don’t tell him the specifics of the settlement. Should he ask, tell him that it will depend on what kind of result they want. Then, when Orton’s condemnation is publicly announced, send him to an area you have complete control over to retire for a while. During this period, place the Snow Lion Corps in Bryne’s charge.”

“You can’t bring yourself to work on the senior, but surely you can manage the junior?”

Leng Hen’s face was filled with shock as he stared intently at Bai Xiaofei, feeling like he had gotten to know Bai Xiaofei all over again.

“Didn’t anyone tell you that being too smart is not necessarily a good thing sometimes?” It was indiscernible what kind of thoughts Leng Hen had when he asked this question.

Bai Xiaofei only smiled.

“The person who would ask such a thing should not be smart enough, because if they are smart enough to ensure control over everything, then being smart is not a bad thing at all.”

The answer stunned Leng Hen. This time, Bai Xiaofei truly surprised him…

After that, the two began to chat about all kinds of topics. Only until Orton’s army arrived at the capital did they finally leave the study.

Everything that followed played out according to Bai Xiaofei’s script. Orton did not ask Leng Hen what his punishment was because he thought that Leng Hen would protect him. However, when Leng Hen announced that Orton was going to be retired for a while so as to quell the anger of Cang Lan and the others, he was blue in the face.
