Chapter 2748: Chapter 2748: Secret Contact with Zheng’er and Rong’er
Isn’t that right, Second Sister-in-law’s words aren’t as slippery as this little guy’s, and he’s just a child!
My second brother and sister-in-law have really raised a good son!
“Second Brother, things have been quite restless at Huayan Peak recently. There have been numerous instances of camps attacking each other. It’s good that you’re here, as you can help suppress some of this. Such things never happened at Huayan Peak before.”
The group entered his hut, and he instructed someone to prepare food, and everyone sat down.
“Brother Ming and Lan Zhiyi both feel that there’s a hidden hand trying to incite chaos at Huayan Peak, but they’ve been investigating for a long time without finding anything.”
The main issue is that their plane is too low-level, and there’s this inter-plane traveler, Qian Jiyun, appearing.
Everyone not only looks down on them but is also very wary of them, fearing that they might say something they shouldn’t or do something they shouldn’t, which could reach the ears of the inter-plane travelers.
So, it’s understandable that they couldn’t find anything. In the end, this matter has to fall upon Second Brother to investigate.
“Lu’er, treehouse, Zhou’er, Nuonuo, Uncle has prepared food for you, come and sit down to eat.”
After saying a word to Qian Jiyun, he smilingly looked at the four children, gesturing for them to sit at the table to eat, then turned to look at An Jiuyue.
“Yiyun, you should eat too. Must be tired from the journey?”
An Jiuyue nodded; she wasn’t tired, just a little excited to be here for the first time, her heart was still racing.
The little ones did not immediately go over but looked at their parents.
Even though they knew Gong Cheng was their uncle, whether they could eat or not was decided by their parents. That’s what children should do, listen to the adults. If adults say they can’t eat, they absolutely won’t.
“Go eat, have dinner with Aunt Yiyun, and remember to thank Uncle.” Qian Jiyun gestured for them to eat.
“Thank you, Uncle.”
The four children simultaneously thanked Gong Cheng and then dashed to the table, each taking a seat.
“Auntie, come quickly, let’s eat together.”
“Alright, I’m coming.”
An Jiuyue laughed as she walked over and sat down with the little ones.
“With unrest, how is the protected ground?” An Jiuyue asked.
“For now, it seems fine, but I always feel like it’s the calm before the storm.”
Gong Cheng frowned; he wasn’t the naive youngster who first arrived at Huayan Peak, he could naturally sense the unsettling atmosphere coming from Huayan Peak.
“I secretly sent people to inquire, and just like the matter with the Color-Painter Bird this time, people in other camps are also secretly bringing demonic beasts back alive.”
He said.
Selling vegetables and food naturally allowed him to lower people’s guards against him. As a businessman, casually asking around is normal, so naturally, he could gather more information.
“It’s not just in our low-level planes, even in the Middle-High Level Plane camps, such incidents are occurring, and not just one or two.”
Upon hearing this, Qian Jiyun’s eyes darkened.
If things are indeed as Gong Cheng described, then there is definitely someone orchestrating this from the shadows. But the question remains, what is that person’s motive?
Making Huayan Peak restless, what benefit could that possibly bring to that person?
“Also, Second Brother, Sister-in-law, someone has been secretly contacting Zheng’er and Rong’er.” Gong Cheng added another line.
