Chapter 354 - 339: First Update
Elder Can saw that the young master didn’t want to speak, and immediately became somewhat anxious, yet he dared not ask more. With them present, how could the Young Master have been bullied? Was it someone from Qiandao Temple?
Elder Can’s mood became heavy at once; Zong Yunqian was of Qiandao Temple. Elder Can was not a simple-minded person; he had a clear grasp of Zong Yunqian’s situation, and with Lan Xing around, he basically could find out whatever he wanted to know.
Seeing the state his Young Master was in now, the first thing Elder Can thought of was, had Master Yu Sheng made a move?
Elder Can naturally feared this top disciple of Master Huo Yi; Master Yu Sheng had special skills, and he had heard his master say before, to try to avoid him whenever possible.
Moreover, last night, the Young Master’s actions were rash. The events of last night might have increased others’ suspicions, especially those of the Crown Prince and his people, which was practically divinely assisted—it was risky, but the gains were significant indeed.
But by doing so, it hastened Zong Yunqian’s suspicions, which would inevitably lead to action. The most likely course of action Elder Can could think of was seeking out Master Yu Sheng.
Upon thinking this, Elder Can felt extremely anxious. Although their Young Master had exceptional talent, so too did Master Yu Sheng, who had been personally taught by Master Huo Yi from a young age; Elder Can clearly understood the gap between them.
"Young Master, I think the best thing to do now is to take the Commandery Princess away," Elder Can gritted his teeth. Once they reached Ghoul Ravine, he wouldn’t fear a damned thing and wouldn’t care about anything else.
Yin He turned to look at Elder Can.
"Wasn’t it you who said that we should aim to win her over by appealing to her emotions? It seems to have some effect now, so why are you suddenly talking about taking her away?"
Moreover, he felt that it was not yet the time when Nian Ru would be wholeheartedly willing to go with her.
