Hong Xiaoxiao beside said, "Weizhu, since we can't find out about Young Master Mo, why don't we just keep a close eye on Feng Yuqin?"
Hearing this, Mu Weizhu thought of the surprise she had prepared for Feng Yuqin. A bloodthirsty arc curled up on her lips. "You're right. I'd like to see how she'll make a fool of herself today."
Saying this, Mu Weizhu's face darkened a bit. "Those people of Ouyang Wu are so timid. I told them to do something, but they didn't even dare to kill her. Otherwise, in today's alchemy competition, it wouldn't just be about making Feng Yuqin look bad. I'd want her life."
Hong Xiaoxiao said, "The secret guards my father gave me found out that the long - absent President Ye of the General Union has shown up this time."
"The vice - president has been in power for so many years, yet he's still afraid of a president who hasn't been in power for years," Mu Weizhu said with an ugly look in her eyes.
"Because the owner of the Purple Jade Tower is a friend of Ye Chengkang, so the vice - president is a bit scrupulous," Hong Xiaoxiao said according to what she had found out.
Mu Weizhu sneered. "Just a friend. Do you really think he'll go against Ouyang Wu for Ye Chengkang? I must say, Ouyang Wu is really useless."
Hong Xiaoxiao stopped talking.
Because Mu Weizhu had been highly regarded by the people of the White Flame Sect. Over the years in the White Flame Sect, she had always done whatever she wanted.
So now all she thought about was that Ouyang Wu couldn't kill Feng Yuqin as she had told him to, and that was Ouyang Wu's problem.
"Miss, why don't we increase the stakes?" the secret guard beside said. "If Ouyang Wu has the capital to go against Ye Chengkang, he'll definitely dare to do it.
The reason he doesn't dare to go too far now is just because there's the owner of the Purple Jade Tower behind Ye Chengkang. But if there's you, miss, behind Ouyang Wu? If you offer enough incentives, I'm sure Ouyang Wu will be willing to stand on your side."
Mu Weizhu frowned. "But when I came out, my father told me not to be too high - profile."
Although her father usually doted on her, if she went against something he seriously told her to do and he got angry, she would be afraid.
"Weizhu, you're just supporting Ouyang Wu secretly. As long as you're careful, who would know it's you?" Hong Xiaoxiao said.
Mu Weizhu had always wanted Feng Yuqin dead. She had wanted to kill her from the first time she heard of Feng Yuqin.
So now hearing what Hong Xiaoxiao and her secret guard said, she immediately sent someone to contact Ouyang Wu and increased the stakes.
This time the stakes were several times higher than before. So after discussing with his confidants, Ouyang Wu agreed.
...
The next day, when Song Jianming walked out of his room, Yan Xiao and the others were just coming out too.
"President," Yan Xiao immediately greeted Song Jianming.
Sun Jian and Ke Ruxia also immediately saluted Song Jianming.
"Go and call A Qin. We can set off," Song Jianming said.
Just then, Elder Lin, Elder Chen and the others also walked out of their rooms.
When they saw that Feng Yuqin hadn't come out yet, their faces looked rather unpleasant.
Elder Chen couldn't help but say, "This Feng Yuqin really has a big face, making so many people wait for her."
Yan Xiao gave Elder Chen a cold look and said, "If you don't want to wait, you can leave first."
"Who do you think you are, daring to talk to me like this?" Elder Chen roared.
Yan Xiao's eyes turned cold. "What? Do you want to fight?"
Xiaoying inside heard this and had a black line across her head.
Did Yan Xiao know what he was saying?
Fight? Could he beat Elder Chen?
Although Elder Chen was an alchemist and was a bit weaker in strength compared to his peers.
Yan Xiao came from the Western Song State. His talent was quite good in the Western Song State. After coming to the Central Region, although he had improved his strength a bit during his adventures with Dongfang Zhi and the others, it would still be a bit difficult for him to win against Elder Chen.
Elder Chen didn't expect Yan Xiao to provoke him. Just as he was about to agree, Song Jianming spoke up. "Alright, the competition is coming soon. If you don't want to participate, just say so."
Hearing this, Elder Chen flung his sleeve and snorted. "I'll settle the score with you after the competition."
"I'll be waiting," Yan Xiao knew his own strength, but since Elder Chen was so arrogant, he couldn't lose his nerve. That would be a disgrace to A Qin.
Seeing this, Ke Ruxia immediately went to knock on the door tactfully.
It was Su Bing who opened the door. She glanced at the assembled people. A look of hesitation flashed across her eyes. Looking at Song Jianming, she said, "President, why don't you go first? We'll catch up later."
"What's wrong with A Qin? Is something wrong?" Yan Xiao asked anxiously.
Song Jianming also asked worriedly, "Where's A Qin? Isn't she in the room?"
"She's in the room. She's just researching a kind of pill, and it's a critical moment now, so it might take a little while," Su Bing said.
Hearing that Feng Yuqin was okay, Yan Xiao let out a sigh of relief.
So did Song Jianming, but Elder Chen and the others were unhappy.
Lin Sixue said coldly beside, "She's just putting on airs. I don't believe she can research anything in such a short time."
Yan Xiao glanced at Lin Sixue and said sarcastically, "You can't do it doesn't mean A Qin can't."
Elder Lin gave Yan Xiao a cold look but didn't say anything. Seeing that the two sides were about to start a fight again, Song Jianming immediately said, "Since A Qin won't go with us for now, let's go first."
"I hope she won't show up even when the competition time is up," Elder Chen said and then turned around and left.
Elder Lin and the others also immediately turned around and left.
Song Jianming glanced at Su Bing and said to Yan Xiao, "Let's go."
Yan Xiao said, "President, why don't we wait for A Qin here?"
Su Bing spoke first to Yan Xiao. "You go first. The master will come later."
Hearing this, Yan Xiao had no choice but to follow the president and leave.
This competition was held in the largest competition venue in Tiancheng.
Usually, any martial arts or alchemy competitions would be held here.
So when Yan Xiao and the others arrived, the venue was already packed with people.
Yan Xiao scanned the area and saw that Elder Chen and his group had already sat down in front of their seats.
Song Jianming glanced at Yan Xiao and said, "I'm not in the same area as you. Go over there."
Yan Xiao nodded and walked to the exclusive area for the competitors with Ke Ruxia and Sun Jian.
When Elder Lin and the others saw them coming, their faces looked rather unpleasant. Lin Sixue even directly said, "Without the president's protection, you're nothing."
Yan Xiao gave Lin Sixue a cold look. "Says the one who always needs her father's protection."
"You..." Lin Sixue didn't expect Yan Xiao to be so rude to her. Her face turned extremely ugly.
But she never thought that since she had disrespected Yan Xiao in public, why should he respect her?
Some other forces nearby saw the infighting among Yan Xiao and the others. A look of schadenfreude flashed across their eyes.
