Chapter 784: Four Seas Summit
“So, you took control of the Chaos Heaven Brigand and grew your powerbase to take revenge against Fang Muyun,” Feng Qingyou said.
“It’s one of my backup plans, yes,” Ye Qing answered.
“I’m sorry for disrupting your plans, Joyless,” Feng Qingyou apologized. “Alas, I need Mount Qi for my own plans, so I cannot surrender them to you.”
“It’s fine. It was something I came up with on a whim to begin with. It’s not important.”
It was a half-truth. It was true that the idea had occurred to him as a whim, but to say it wasn’t important to his plans would be a total lie.
In his original plan, Chen Wuxin would take control of the Chaos Heaven Brigand and expand his influence in secret. After he became a Grandmaster, he would travel to Mount Qi and attempt to take control of the entire place in one fell swoop. With Mount Qi and Xue Beikun’s forces under his control, he would finally have the beginnings of a powerbase that could go up against Fang Zhiyong and Fang Muyun.
Unfortunately, Feng Qingyou stole his prize before he could even put his plan into action.
If she was anyone else, he would have fought for his prize one way or another. But since it was Feng Qingyou, he had no choice but to compromise.
He was compromising not because he was in love with her, but because she was a friend and the one who saved his life. Either one of these reasons was a reason enough to make a compromise.
