Chapter 938: Waiting for Your Good News
When Yue Qingjie saw how silent she was, his hair stood on end. He stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Madam Yue’s eyes. “Madam, are you alright?”
“Old Man, this time, don’t even think about submitting to Ling Wushang. If Ling Wushang becomes the sect leader, we won’t have a good ending, right?” Madam Yue’s face looked fierce, yet extremely cold and calm. Although she was asking a question, her tone was firm.
Yue Qingjie was stunned. He furrowed his brows and sat next to Madam Yue as he began to think. Yue Qingjie’s gaze gradually turned from a blank to a determined one. Suddenly, he stood up and said to Madam Yue, “Madam, you’re the smart one. I’ll go look for Zhu Tianzhi now. There’s no time to delay!”
“Go. Old Man, I’ll await your good news. Tell Zhu Tianzhi that Ling Wushang values his sister, Ling Chuxi, very much,” said Madam Yue calmly.
Yue Qingjie was slightly stunned. Then, his lips curled into a cold smile. He said in a low voice, “Don’t worry, Madam. I know what to do.”
Madam Yue nodded.
Yue Qingjie left in a hurry. Madam Yue sat alone on the bed, her face full of viciousness. Things had already come to this point. Her precious son’s beating had been in vain. However, not only had he been beaten, but he had also been punished to face the wall for ten years! Ten years! When her son came out, that b*tch’s b*stard would have already grown up. The old man would do whatever to put him at an advanage. When her son was finally released from his punishment, would he still have a share of the Yue family’s property? His old man had always wanted to curry favour with Ling Wushang and join him. But Ling Wushang had never taken the bait. This time, he had completely offended Ling Wushang. Now, there was no way out. It was better to have another path.
And this other path was through another person: Ling Wushang’s competitor who could also become the next sect leader. His name was Zhu Tianzhi. His cultivation was not bad, and he was also amiable to people. He had a good relationship with others, and some people supported him. However, this was only on the surface. Madam Yue knew very well that Zhu Tianzhi was not as amiable as he appeared to be.
Madam Yue had long discovered that Zhu Tianzhi was not a kind person. After a certain martial arts practice in Flowing Cloud Sect, the sect leader had praised Ling Wushang. Zhu Tianzhi also congratulated Ling Wushang with a bright smile. But that was all just on the surface. However, Madam Yue could clearly see that on the way back, Zhu Tianzhi had chopped down a huge tree so badly that it was unbearable to look at, all to vent the resentment in his heart. From that moment on, Madam Yue had paid attention to this person who would become one of the candidates to be the future sect leader. She gradually discovered that this person was very shrewd, and his heart was also tyrannical. Therefore, she had never persuaded Yue Qingjie to switch his support to Zhu Tianzhi, despite the old man’s struggles with Ling Wushang.
This time, it was not up to her. Since she and Ling Wushang had become like this, then she would go to Zhu Tianzhi. They would think of a way to deal with Ling Wushang and Ling Chuxi to avenge their precious son. Then, they would think of a way to rescue their son from the valley of reflection.
After Yue Qingjie left the house, he looked around and made sure no one saw him. Then, he quietly went to Zhu Tianzhi’s place.
..
When Zhu Tianzhi returned to his room, he saw Yue Qingjie sitting in front of the table.
“Senior Brother Yue, why did you come to my humble abode instead of collecting gifts for your celebration?” asked Zhu Tianzhi.
It was normal for Zhu Tianzhi to not give Yue Qingjie much respect because Yue Qingjie frequently showed goodwill to Ling Wushang. Yue Qingjie would still be polite to Zhu Tianzhi, but would still not approach him willingly.
