Chapter 2341: Chapter 2341: Simply Doesn’t Exist

"However, the City Lord ans to prevent Lu Tianfeng from entering the Sea Vast Forest. Sangsang, do you really think it’s necessary to let Lu Tianfeng enter the Sea Vast Forest? Is this truly the best choice?"

He asked.

"Why not?" Lin Caisang raised an eyebrow.

"Father, the City Lord doesn’t understand, and you don’t understand either?"

"Hmm?"

Lin Baizhong looked puzzled, staring at his daughter.

"Since Lu Tianfeng has already figured out a way to make the City Lord open the Sea Vast Forest, then no matter the cost, he will enter no matter what. Trying to stop him is futile."

"Then why not just refuse to open the Sea Vast Forest at all?" Lin Baizhong suggested.

"That’s not a bad solution," Lin Caisang nodded.

But she quickly shook her head, finding this thod less than ideal.

"Have you considered? Just to enter the Sea Vast Forest, Lu Tianfeng has already fabricated a rumor about the City Lord’s wife being pregnant. If the Sea Vast Forest doesn’t open this ti, who knows what else Lu Tianfeng will concoct next?

Moreover, if the Sea Vast Forest isn’t opened, Lu Tianfeng will surely harbor suspicions about the City Lord and you.

I fear his hidden sches will then beco even harder to uncover. Father, Lu Tianfeng managed to hide Zimo for so many years, which shows his incredible patience.

If he could wait over twenty years, do you think he’d care about waiting twenty more?"

"This..."

Lin Baizhong fell silent, pausing mid-sentence.

"He can afford to wait, but Father, are you sure we want to keep wasting ti with him like this?" Seeing Lin Baizhong unresponsive, Lin Caisang pressed on.

"Dealing with soone like Lu Tianfeng, who’s always scheming in the shadows, is like defending against an invisible foe. Who knows what his next move or target could be?

He’s like a mad dog—whoever crosses him, he’ll bite relentlessly."

Hearing this, Lin Baizhong took a deep breath.

"Sangsang, your words hold much rit."

Indeed, Lu Tianfeng was a remarkably cunning and dangerously reckless mad dog—so unrelenting it was driving him mad!

"So, does this an he absolutely must go to the Sea Vast Forest?" he asked.

"Yes."

Lin Caisang nodded.

"Initially, I thought it was just an ordinary woman. Even if she isn’t pregnant, it wouldn’t be an issue. But now, since it’s the City Lord’s wife, it becos an entirely different matter.

Especially now, with the rumor that the City Lord’s wife is carrying Sky City’s Junior City Lord spreading like wildfire, it has beco even harder to address.

All the apothecaries have already gathered in Sky City. If, at this mont, we suddenly announce that the Sea Vast Forest won’t open, it will surely provoke dissatisfaction from all the apothecaries and alchemists across the Illusion Continent.

I assu many of those apothecaries and alchemists who ca to Sky City are individuals of considerable renown?

Handling them won’t be easy."

"Sangsang, you still haven’t grasped the bigger issue. Whether the Sea Vast Forest opens or not is important, but the most critical problem is this: how do we deal with the fact that the child in the City Lord’s wife’s womb simply doesn’t exist?"

Lin Baizhong reminded her.

The so-called Junior City Lord—that child simply doesn’t exist. Who’s to say the elders in Sky City won’t think the City Lord’s wife deliberately didn’t want the child and secretly got rid of it?

When that happens, if Lu Tianfeng jumps in with a claim, insisting he absolutely detected the pregnancy pulse, then Lu Tianlan’s reputation as City Lord will undoubtedly take a huge hit."
