1984 Why Did You Bring Her Back?
Soon, the eight illusionary tails rapidly elongated and solidified.
The cat tails ford a windstorm atop the black flood dragon’s back that picked up the piles of paper.
The long tails touched each piece of paper as though it was playing.
Bai Qinghuan was currently nervously waiting for her ending and did not notice Lin Yuan’s gaze changing.
!!
Frankly, Lin Yuan had not thought much about Bai Qinghuan.
But now, it seed that she was not simple.
Genius was already done looking through two of the piles and found that they described the inferred relations between the major factions in the Divine Wood Federation.
Given the Bai family’s status, Bai Qinghuan had access to information that others would struggle to obtain. Hence, it was not surprising for the inferences to be more detailed.
However, the inference that the Su family was going to attack the Yang family and win was not expected.
It had to be a secret that the Su family intended to attack the Yang family.
There was no way that Bai Qinghuan would have the opportunity to learn about it. Even the head of the Bai family should not be aware of this.
Even if the head of the Bai family had secured such information, he would not tell Bai Qinghuan about it.
Thus, the only explanation was that Bai Qinghuan had inferred this information on her own.
If that were the case, it ant she was extrely skilled at inference and deduction.
However, Lin Yuan was curious about why she predicted that the Su family would lose to the Yang family.
While Lin Yuan was thinking, Genius finished looking through all four piles of docunts.
After Genius’ examination, the way Lin Yuan looked at Bai Qinghuan changed.
He would not have a need to keep her if all she was good for was her deduction skill.
But now, he felt that he absolutely needed to keep her.
He had not expected her to have such powerful military affairs skills.
In this world where wielding beasts was at the root of everything, a person’s power was key and martial force was above all.
Thus, military affairs skills were increasingly ignored.
But since Lin Yuan had co from another world, he knew the importance of military affairs skills.
Bai Qinghuan had indeed proven her worth to Lin Yuan.
In special situations, Bai Qinghuan’s strategic significance would exceed that of an Eternal expert.
And they happened to be exactly in the middle of a special situation. A storm was about to be unleashed.
Although Lin Yuan did not absolutely have to keep Bai Qinghuan, there would be no disadvantages to doing so.
Lin Yuan did not want to waste too much ti here.
It was likely that Yi Huailong was already on his way to Sky Creation’s tree castle to see Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan said to Bai Qinghuan, “Frankly, I don’t have much use for your deductions because I can get access to so information even without deductions. But I am interested in your military affairs skills. Swear to on your Willpower Rune! There might be a chance in the future to push you to a high position and helm strategy planning.”
While Lin Yuan was speaking, he sent Blackie toward Sky Creation’s tree castle.
When Lin Yuan instructed his cat to use its tail to flip through the information, Bai Qinghuan saw every movent as a round of judgnt.
Fear could be stacked endlessly, especially when one’s life hung in the balance.
As Bai Qinghuan’s fear accumulated, she dared not negotiate with Lin Yuan when the opportunity was finally presented to her.
She imdiately knelt to the ground and swore to beco Lin Yuan’s servant on her Willpower Rune.
In the Divine Wood Federation, the only type of swearing was to beco a servant.
Now, Bai Qinghuan was Lin Yuan’s servant, and he could use the contract to decide her life or death.
A faint dot of light appeared in the shrine in his soul. This represented Bai Qinghuan’s faith in him.
Although this dot of light was still extrely small, it proved that Bai Qinghuan had beco loyal to him.
By the ti they arrived at Sky Creation’s tree castle, Yi Huailong was waiting for Lin Yuan as per their agreent.
Both Yi Huailong and Bai Qinghuan’s faces were filled with shock.
Yi Huailong had not expected Lin Yuan to have Bai Qinghuan by his side, and Bai Qinghuan had not expected Yi Huailong to act in such a subservient manner in front of Lin Yuan. It was as though, just like her, he was Lin Yuan’s servant.
Yi Huailong had many things to tell Lin Yuan, but he did not know how to begin with Bai Qinghuan here.
At that mont, Lin Yuan said, “You can speak candidly. Bai Qinghuan is also one of us.”
Yi Huailong looked at Bai Qinghuan curiously. He did not understand what it was about Bai Qinghuan that made her willing to be taken in by Lin Yuan while risking affronting the Bai family.
But since Lin Yuan had said that Bai Qinghuan was one of them, Yi Huailong did not put up a guard against her and said, “Young Master, if the Su family truly makes a move, Sacred Forest City will be thrown into chaos. I’m afraid that I won’t be able to protect the tree castle without you here.”
Lin Yuan replied, “Once the Su family makes their move, it is likely that the Bai family will take advantage of the opportunity to attack the Yi family. At that ti, you will imdiately bring the people from the Yi family to Sky Creation’s tree castle. Your safety is assured once you’re inside the tree castle.”
Bai Qinghuan was floored when she heard the exchange between Lin Yuan and Yi Huailong.
Yi Huailong had addressed Lin Yuan as ‘Young Master’. This ant that he saw Lin Yuan as his master and that the Yi family had beco a subsidiary of Sky Creation.
Bai Qinghuan had co up with her deductions based on information she had gathered but also on her understanding of the current circumstances.
Previously, she had thought about going to the head of the Bai family with her deductions to see if she could leverage her ability to escape her marriage to the Bai family’s oldest grandson.
But after so things happened, Bai Qinghuan realized she was too naive.
Once she refused to marry the Bai family’s oldest grandson, she would lose all value to the Bai family. There was no way that they would fancy her military affairs skill.
Once he fully absorbed her deductions, the head of the Bai family would eliminate her to preserve his grandson’s pride.
...
But now, Lin Yuan verified Bai Qinghuan’s deductions.
Yet, she did not feel happy in the slightest.
Since she ca from one of the Bai family’s collateral branches, she knew that anything that happened in Sacred Wood City would put countless regular people in turmoil.
