Chapter 614: Chapter 185: Nan Batian’s Doomsday (Please Subscribe)_5

Qimu Ge immediately left, and Yelu squinted his eyes. His gaze was filled with solemnity. The Inspection Envoy’s arrival in Mianshui County put him under great pressure, especially with the incident of the Zoroastrian Sect transporting military supplies at this time. It was pouring oil on the fire!

Therefore, at this moment, the only option was to sacrifice Nan Batian and then stabilize his own position first.

As for Chen Jiusi!

Yelu squinted his eyes, the court unchanging as iron, the flowing waters of Jianghu ever-changing—a change in Gang Leader was commonplace. How often do you see a change of Darugachi?

Thinking this, Yelu’s mouth curved into a smile. Chen Jiusi was the mouse, and he was the cat. No matter how big the mouse was, it would eventually become the cat’s food.

To take down Nan Batian and replace him with Chen Jiusi was merely a cycle. If I can use Chen Jiusi to check Nan Batian, then I can use Qin Ying to check you, Chen Jiusi!

Thinking thus, Yelu looked 45 degrees into the sky, his eyes hinting at an indescribable and elusive taste.

...

Eagle Hall!

Qin Ying was recently quite irritable. He believed that he had been loyal to Nan Batian, acting as a good dog, but Nan Batian simply didn’t regard him as a person!

Frequent insults and humiliations—Nan Batian truly treated him as nothing more than a dog.

He was willing to be Nan Batian’s dog, but that didn’t mean he should be truly treated as one. He was an Energy Transformation Master, one of the Thirteen Grand Protectors in Mianshui County. Shouldn’t he be given the basic respect due?

But he got nothing—no respect at all.

His two younger brothers had been causing trouble recently, feeling their self-esteem wounded, and they had many grievances against Nan Batian.

Yet, he could only comfort them. He was on the path of being a dog; only by serving Nan Batian well could he climb higher and higher.

Moreover, he had almost cut off all his own retreats.

For example, Chen Jiusi—who now hated no one more than Nan Batian, with himself a close second.

If one day Chen Jiusi rose to power, he would certainly face dire consequences.

Apart from being a dog, he had no other choice left.

He was inwardly suffering, his brows knotted in worry while in his study. Just then, the steward of his mansion reported that someone from Yelu Mansion had come to see him.

”Yelu Mansion!”

Qin Ying’s eyes widened as he stood up. Why would Yelu Mansion want to see him? But not daring to neglect a visitor from Yelu Mansion, he immediately said, ”Invite them in quickly, prepare tea in the living room.”

Meanwhile, this news also alarmed Qin Hu and Qin Bao, who rushed to the living room in a hurry.

Ahetai then strode into the living room and sat down with the assertive posture of one who wielded a golden knife. Although his martial arts skills had only just reached the level of Energy Transformation, which was even inferior to that of Qin Hu...

Still, he carried with him the proud air of an official from the Yelu Mansion.

Ahetai sat down, and the servants served tea, quickly followed by the three brothers Qin Ying, Qin Hu, and Qin Bao walking over.

Qin Ying greeted him with a clenched fist, ”Lord Commander Ahetai.”

As local guild leader, Qin Ying knew some noteworthy figures in the city well, such as a few key figures from Yelu Mansion—Ahetai was one of them, a Deputy Commander. Although not as prominent as Qimu Ge, he still had a respectable reputation.

Ahetai glanced at Qin Ying, stood up, and said, ”Master Qin, dismiss everyone; Lord Yelu has something to ask you.”

”Yelu, Lord Yelu?”

Hearing this, Qin Ying immediately said, ”Everyone, leave us, quickly!”

Qin Hu and Qin Bao were also startled—what business did Yelu have with them? They too ordered the guards and servants to leave.

Ahetai frowned slightly and said to Qin Ying, ”Clear out everyone; just you and me!”

Qin Ying was taken aback and looked to his brothers on either side, ”Lord Commander Ahetai, these are my own brothers. Is that alright?”

Ahetai’s brow furrowed, ”Qin Ying, Lord Yelu said he can only speak to you. Do you understand?”

Upon hearing these words, Qin Ying quickly said, ”Understood, understood—Ah Hu, Ah Bao.”

Qin Hu and Qin Bao exchanged glances and then left the living room, leaving Qin Ying and Ahetai as the only two in the room.

Ahetai spoke, ”Qin Ying.”

”Present.”

”Lord Yelu asks you, are you willing to work for him?”

Ahetai said with a well-positioned manner.

Qin Ying was taken aback but quickly responded, ”Willing, definitely willing.”

Ahetai said, ”Good. Since it’s like that, here’s a letter for you. I will go back to report. I’m off.”

The last three words, ”I’m off,” were uttered with a particularly heavy emphasis.

Qin Ying immediately understood, fumbling in his sleeves and producing two silver notes, each worth one thousand taels. He promptly stuffed them into Ahetai’s cuff.

”Lord Commander, please speak favorably of me when you return. I am willing to go through fire and water for Lord Yelu, I shall not shirk.”

”Oh? And what if Lord Yelu orders you to kill your parents?”

Ahetai, looking amused, watched Qin Ying, who said, ”I’d kill them, absolutely kill them. As long as Lord Yelu commands, I, Qin Ying, will not shirk!”

Ahetai gave Qin Ying an approving look and then smiled, ”You’re promising, lad. From now on, work under Lord Yelu, and take good care.”

Qin Ying said, ”Yes, of course, of course!”

After Ahetai left, Qin Ying examined the letter in his hands and opened it.

He read it from beginning to end and then looked shocked. At that moment, Qin Bao and Qin Hu walked in and asked, ”Brother, what did Ahetai come here for?”

Qin Ying replied with a grave expression, ”Nan Batian is finished!”

”What?”

The Tiger and Leopard brothers were greatly surprised and looked at each other before turning to Qin Ying said in unison, ”Big brother, what’s going on?”

Qin Ying then handed over the letter to Qin Hu and Qin Bao. They looked at each other after reading it.

Then they both exclaimed in shock, ”Lord Yelu wants to arrest Nan Batian?”

Qin Ying nodded slightly.

Qin Hu said, ”That’s great! Look here, it says that after the matter is resolved, Lord Yelu will make sure one-third of the Fishing Guild’s assets are given to us. This way, won’t we become the second White Tiger Hall? We’d even have the strength to challenge the Headquarters.”
