C32 (1/2)

”Their purpose?” Lu Yi asked, ”Isn't their goal to frame us?”

Jin Jian glanced at her. ”That's why I said you're dumb. If the two of us can't become a threat to them at such a young age, why would they want to frame us?”

Lu Yi's eyes lit up: ”That's right! Why would they do that? ”

”Humph, there are too many reasons. For example, Jin Jian is the last disciple of the Ultimate Gen King, but he is the most doted on by the Burgundy King. He cannot help but be envied; for example, Lu Yi is the daughter of the High Lord of the Blood Family, if I were to hold you in my hands, it would definitely be beneficial for me to threaten the old Green Fin; for example, the two of you might accidentally find out someone's secret, or mess with them.”

Lu Yi's heart trembled. ”We didn't break any of their shameful secrets or actions, so I think the reason might be the first two.”

Jin Jian said, ”I grew up in the Ji Chuan Ice Plains. My fellow brothers and sisters, you shouldn't find anyone jealous of a child like me who hasn't grown up yet, right?”

”Hmph, if everyone's thoughts could be seen from their faces, then there wouldn't be any tricks and plots in this world.”

Jin Jian said, ”This place is the Icemountain Race. I think it's very likely that someone is trying to take action against Lu Yi, using her to incite a dispute between the two races.”

Ying Kong nodded her head and said, ”There is a dispute between the two races. The Floater Race is reaping the benefits from this.”

Jin Jian nodded. ”Sit down and commit murder. Give it to Lu Yi. Then, let Lu Yi land in your master's hands. In order to save your daughter, Old Ancestor Green Fin will definitely use all his blood clan troops. This way, a bloody battle will inevitably occur between the two races.”

”But, if their goal is only this, then you won't be involved.”

Jin Jian thought about it carefully and suddenly realized, ”That's right. Right now, even I am a suspect in killing people and destroying corpses. That way, my status as a member of the Icy Plains would not be enough to be the fuse for the two tribes.”

”That's why I feel that this kind of conspiracy is very likely aimed at the two of you. Their goal is, on one hand, to cause chaos between the two races, and, on the other hand, to make Jin Jian a murderer. From this, one can see that this operation is a plot by both sides who represent two different interests, the one is the mayfly tribe who hopes to fight between the two races, and the other is the sinner who views Jin Jian as a thorn in his side.

Jin Jian's heart trembled. ”I really can't think of any existence like this in the Ice Origin Tribe.”

Ying Kong laughed. ”Although you are smart, you don't understand the evilness of the human heart. You don't understand that most people only know how to act in front of others. In this world, regardless of whether it's the Blood Clan or the Ice Origin Clan, most people place emphasis on benefits, and the so-called 'morality' and 'emotion' should all yield in front of benefits. ”

Jin Jian shook his head and said, ”Benefit. I'm just a young, inexperienced youngster that has yet to mature. I'm only a small disciple when I sit down in front of my master. Whose benefit would it harm?”

”But you are the most outstanding disciple and the person he loves the most. He has placed a lot of expectations on you, so you will make all those fellow disciples who want to become outstanding in front of your master jealous. Your master's favor will determine the future of many people in the Frozen Plains.”

From the bottom of his heart, Jin Jian felt that Ying Kong's words were logical, but he was unwilling to admit it.

The young master saw this and continued, ”Sometimes, it's not that you don't want to obstruct others, it's just that you don't want to hinder others. This is how people do things in the martial arts world.”

When Lu Yi heard that Ying Kong didn't mention that the Ice Origin Clan's disciples didn't want to be as innocent as Jin Jian thought, she felt a sense of schadenfreude. She turned her eyes towards Jin Jian and said to him, ”Alright, Uncle Ying, don't tell him anymore. He's just a blockhead, it doesn't make sense.”

Jin Jian also glanced at him. ”Hmph, calling uncle Ying in such a short time. Your attitude has become really quick.”

Lu Yi tilted her face and didn't take care of him.

”In short, these people's goal is no more than these few points. By now, they have spread throughout the Icy Plains tribe the crime of killing people everywhere in the village. If they want to solve this issue, they must find the real murderer.”

Lu Yi said, ”You make it sound simple. We don't have any leads. The other party is in the dark while we're looking for them. It's pretty easy for them to find us.”

Jin Jian said, ”Furthermore, the Mayfly race has no fixed home and is able to control the movement of corpses. They have the advantage in all aspects over us in this area.”

”You're all talking about the problem, but they made a fatal mistake.”

Both Jin Jian and Lu Yi were extremely curious at the same time and asked together, ”What mistake?”

The young master of the YinKong Clan put his hands behind his back, his eyes shining brightly, and said, ”That is, they actually dared to provoke us. The Jellyfish Clan's chief, the young master of the YinKong Clan, is simply courting death!”

Jin Jian sighed, but Lu Yi uttered the word ”tsk”.

Cherry Blossom looked at the two of them and said, ”What, do you doubt my abilities?”

Jin Jian glanced at him. ”Of course not …”
