Chapter 2800: Chapter 2800: A Chill on the Back of My Neck
A family capable of producing such a traitor can’t be good people. Even if they’re not killed, they need to suffer a great deal as well.
"Rest assured, Little Prince, I’ve already assigned people to secretly investigate."
The lord, upon hearing Old Lin’s suspicions earlier, was secretly alarmed. If someone from his camp really was betraying them for profit, he would certainly not let that person off easily.
He absolutely would not allow one bad apple to spoil the whole bunch.
Currently, the inter-plane travelers haven’t returned yet, so he still has time to root out those who intend to disrupt the unity of the North Desert Camp, and deal with them first.
"But Little Prince, although you plan to stay at Camp Zhan Yun next, you can’t neglect guarding against the people around you." He advised.
"You don’t mean to say that there could be traitors in Camp Zhan Yun as well, do you?"
The Little Prince looked at the lord with a light laugh, finding his words amusing. Why would the people of Camp Zhan Yun become traitors when they have the inter-plane travelers with them? Isn’t that ridiculous?
"Little Prince, I don’t know if there are traitors in Camp Zhan Yun, but from the moment you entered Camp Zhan Yun, the people around you are not only from Camp Zhan Yun. In fact, there are more from other camps."
The lord reminded him.
If it were only the people from Camp Zhan Yun, he wouldn’t need to remind him. Those chosen to accompany the precious guest are undoubtedly the most trusted by Lord An, so he had no worries about them.
The key is, they can’t guard you at all times, yet those around you are all from other camps.
Although they are all victims, who can guarantee that none among them could be an assassin? That’s also uncertain.
The Little Prince was stunned upon hearing his words.
Indeed, the people around him in Camp Zhan Yun were not the most from Camp Zhan Yun, but victims like him from other camps.
"Then what should I do?"
He suddenly felt a bit worried. Without Old Lin’s protection, could he be ’snapped’ in his sleep?
Why does his neck feel a bit chilly?
"Little Prince, you need not worry too much. In Camp Zhan Yun, it’s relatively safe, after all. Since Lord An allows you to stay there, he certainly has ways to protect you."
Old Lin wasn’t worried about this, as he knew the two of them had already arrived and were currently residing within Camp Zhan Yun.
"Just this month, you should focus on your cultivation, and avoid speaking too much with people from other planes. Be cautious when having meals, and if possible, serve yourself instead of relying on others.
Of course, I’ll still come by regularly, and since I’m an old acquaintance with Gong Cheng, he’s sure to speak with Lord An, who will take extra care of you."
"That’s good, that’s good."
Upon hearing Old Lin’s comforting words, the Little Prince let out a sigh of relief.
Upon hearing Old Lin’s words, the lord took another look at Old Lin. Although this guy’s cultivation level didn’t seem impressive, he was quite efficient in handling other matters and even managed to build connections with the people at Camp Zhan Yun.
Looking up, the people from Camp Zhan Yun were already out to welcome them.
"Here they come, Little Prince. It’s unlikely we’ll be able to enter, so let Old Lin go in with you to help settle you down."
"Alright then."
The Little Prince nodded, and followed Old Lin inside.
