Chapter 569 - 315 Soul Search
"Hmm, City God Zhuo Gongkui is a corrupt official."
Fang Zhixing quietly listened.
Fan Qiulai continued, "Back then, Yan Jingfeng wasn’t alone; he also had a beautiful wife."
Somehow, Zhuo Gongkui laid eyes on his wife and demanded that he offer her to the Sect Hierarch of Hundred Spirit Sect, otherwise, he would ensure Yan Jingfeng’s assessment failed."
"How could Yan Jingfeng tolerate that? In a fit of anger, he simply gave up on joining the Five Elements Sect and even exposed Zhuo Gongkui’s rampant corruption to the Court."
"That completely offended Zhuo Gongkui, who in turn listed Yan Jingfeng as a wanted criminal and sent experts to assassinate him, forcing him to flee everywhere."
"Alas, during his escape, his wife was viciously murdered."
After hearing this, Fang Zhixing fell silent. He and Yan Jingfeng were only business partners, not involved in personal grudges.
He didn’t want to get involved in Yan Jingfeng’s private vendettas.
So he conveyed the message, "Commoners shouldn’t contend with officials; you should tell Yan Jingfeng to leave Dai State as soon as possible."
Fan Qiulai replied, "Yan Jingfeng has gone into hiding; I can’t contact him right now. But don’t worry, as soon as I see him, I will definitely urge him to leave quickly."
