Chapter Seven Hundred and Seventy Nine- Cang Ling Xue
In the darkness of the night, Cang Ling Xue was silent and motionless like a puppet Her pretty face showed faint sorrow She threw herself into the darkness, she lost her usual aura of authority and restraint She sat there like a norirl and stared at the distant mountains
The string of lantern lights were like the stars in the sky She thought of the past years, their troubles, and how sparse the lights had been then The present Cang Family was much more prosperous than before
She did not feel much pride, only exhaustion
At this time, she had shed her determination She was like a helpless kitten curled in the corner
”Daren” The hoarse voice of a male sounded in the darkness
She did not raise her head She was too familiar with this voice, so faave a light sound of acknowledgement
”Yesterday, someone visited Second Elder, and Second Elder saw theates,” the male said in a low voice His usually calm voice was filled with indescribable fury ”Third Elder's son was accepted into the first yao art house”
Cang Ling Xue's lips moved She said indifferently, ”Isn't that what he hoped for? His prodigal son has always been a sickness on his mind”
”Chief Elder ,” the male said in a low voice, ”I heard Chief Elder's steward say that they received a threat froranddaughter Chief Elder may likely remain quiet on this matter”
”All of thehed At this tie
The male was silent for a moment before he suddenly spoke, ”Daren flee!”
”Flee? Flee where?” Cang Ling Xue was bewildered ”What about the Cang Family? What about the merchant association?”
”How can we care about that now?” The male's tone became panicked ”If Daren does not flee, it is likely … …”
”What's there to be afraid of?” Cang Ling Xue smiled desolately ”Do not worry, I am worth more to them alive than dead No matter if it is to take over the business association and the Cang Family or to become a tool to earn them money, they all need me alive”
The male was silent
Cang Ling Xue murmured to herself, ”The elders are too timid, if they could harden their resolves, the business association would be able to bargain with these people … …”
”Daren, what if we throay the business association?” the male suddenly asked
”Throay the association?” Cang Ling Xue stilled Then her brow furrowed and she sat up ”Who told you this?”
”Yesterday night when I was spying on Second Elder, I was caught by so,” the male said calmly
”Ah!” Cang Ling Xue was astounded, the sternness and authority on her face disappearing She asked urgently, ”Were you wounded?”
The male's heart warmed He shook his head and said, ”No, the other only asked e”
Cang Ling Xue's expression eased slightly but her heart treth was unfathomable in her eyes No matter how difficult the mission was, Uncle Yan would finish it perfectly Uncle Yan was the last support that her father had left her If it wasn't for Uncle Yan, she would not have taken charge of the Cang Family so quickly While Uncle Yan had never said hoerful he was, she could hear from between his words that Uncle Yan had been a powerful expert in the past
”What is their background?” Cang Ling Xue asked curiously Her mind moved quickly She did not fear the addition of a neer In truth, any change for her in this hopeless situation was good news
Because the situation would not be any worse than now
”I could not see” Uncle Yan's tone was low, and filled with a rare wariness ”The other is faround world I encountered at least three people that round world that have such strength will not be unknown yet I cannot identify these people's origins”
Cang Ling Xue becaent and Uncle Yan's words contained a great a, and with so many experts, it would not be a ive up on the business association, they clearly wanted her ability atFauarantee the safety of the Cang Family
This astounded her If this e had not been carried to her by her most trusted Uncle Yan, she definitely would not believe it Uncle Yan had watched her grow up and the two of thehter He definitely would not betray her
Who was the other?
She knew the reason that she felt hopeless at the fa her because they had the support of the Council of Elders!
They were not people that she, the Cang Faht
This mysterious faction was so confident She felt it hard to believe
”Are there any underground factions so strong?” she murmured to herself
”No” Unexpectedly, Uncle Yan answered His tone was filled with certainly ”The underground world is not large, and not as round powers are closely connected to the Council of Elders”
”Then where do they find the confidence toXue was puzzled
