Chapter 749: Chapter 749 Negotiation Expert Chapter 749: Chapter 749 Negotiation Expert From the destruction of the Bai Family, it was destined they could not be spared. The Patriarch of the Bai Family was wrongfully accused, and even Bai Junjun was “forced to suffer humiliation and died a tragic death.”
With such a bucket of filth dumped over her, the daughter could endure it, but the Fox could not.
Whether it was the Fifth Prince or Yuwen Jun, they manipulated people’s lives, slowly consuming the world. He was determined not to let them have their way.
Manager Qiao ultimately fell silent after listening to Li Wenli’s words.
“Your silence is because you clearly know that we can’t possibly be spared, right?”
Li Wenli took advantage and still acted cute, insisting on getting the other to nod in agreent.
Manager Qiao simply pretended to be deaf, too lazy to concur.
Li Wenli continued, “We won’t make things difficult for you. We are only seeking to know a few things: Thousand Miles, Humming Abyss, Witch Ancestor Mountain, Yuwen Jun—what exactly is the relationship between these?”
Manager Qiao’s eyes flickered slightly, silent.
“How about I take a guess if you don’t want to talk?” Li Wenli raised an eyebrow: “Thousand Miles, as the na implies, possesses the capabilities of Clairvoyance and Following Wind Ear, the most formidable intelligence organization in this world, specializing in the trade of information for profit.
Its headquarters is incredibly secretive; no one knows where it is hidden, but it also relies on taverns, teahouses, and the like as contact points. As long as one goes to these places with the right markers and pays enough Silver Coin, one can purchase the desired information.”
Such a well-developed intelligence organization must have extraordinary people behind it; in these years of war and chaos in the Southern Lands, the information changes in the blink of an eye. I suppose Yuwen Jun, as the man behind the scenes, has made a good profit, hasn’t he?
Otherwise, he wouldn’t now have the power to move southward.”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.” Manager Qiao furrowed his brows.
“Co on, we are just making reasonable guesses. If you say it isn’t so, then it isn’t so,” Li Wenli continued with a smile.
“However, according to Yuwen Luanfei, though the Thousand Miles Headquarters was destroyed, many ssages were still hidden within the Heaven-reaching Tree. Strangely enough, there were details about the world’s nobility, but very little about Yuwen Jun. Even if there were any, they were vague and unclear.
Do you think it’s because spies don’t go to the Northern Lands to investigate, or as the master of Thousand Miles, there’s simply no need to keep a record of oneself?”
Manager Qiao didn’t expect Li Wenli to analyze so much information.
And at first, it didn’t seem alarming, but as Li Wenli spoke deeper and deeper, Manager Qiao inexplicably found his eyes sowhat terrifying—those fox-like eyes seed as if they could see through a person’s soul.
Manager Qiao no longer t his gaze, fearing that his emotions could be easily read through his eyes.
Seeing Manager Qiao’s guilty deanor, Li Wenli slightly curved his lips; this reaction precisely proved that his analysis was correct, wasn’t it?
Having obtained his answer, Li Wenli quickly changed the subject.
“Your silence, I’ll take it as your consent then. Now, let’s talk about Humming Abyss, a place you’re more familiar with, right?”
“…” Manager Qiao.
“Speaking of Humming Abyss, I think its creation has sothing to do with that Mo Family Ancient Scroll that suddenly appeared at Thousand Miles Headquarters one day, right?”
“!”
“Let follow this logic… Could it be that one day, Thousand Miles Headquarters suddenly started to be haunted frequently? Things would appear here and there, mysteriously.
At first, everyone thought that outsiders had broken in. But after a thorough investigation, it turned out to be the work of Ghost Gods, not humans.
However, these invisible Ghost Gods, besides liking to place objects in Thousand Miles Headquarters, didn’t cause any real damage there.
Even one day, they delivered an Ancient Scroll, and thus Humming Abyss officially ca into use, eventually leading to the invention of the Heaven-reaching Tree, the repeating crossbow cart, and so on. Am I right?”
