Tie Xue Leng said again, "Now, analyze this person Fang Yuan . "
"Father, you suspect it is Fang Yuan?" Tie Ruo Nan was stunned, but continued, "He is a very logical and intelligent person, and when he introduced the village to us, every word he said was appropriate and well organised . Gasp! . . . "
Tie Ruo Nan suddenly drew in a mouthful of cold air .
She frowned, "I didn’t notice this earlier, but after you just reminded me, I realised it! This Fang Yuan is too good at speaking . Everything he said is objectively the truth, abandoning his personal feelings . Standing at a bystander’s perspective, and describing calmly . Not allowing others to find flaws in his words, thus not able to get additional clues . His words were very… . very… . very clean . "
The young girl hesitated, before using the word ‘clean’ .
Tie Xue Leng nodded, but then shook his head, "He did not abandon his feelings . Everyone has feelings, and even a cold blooded murderer has feelings . He only concealed his personal feelings very well, and was in full control of his emotions . This lad has a demonic nature . "
"Demonic nature?""That’s right, think about it . He spoke the truth during the banquet, saying he was frightened and did not dare to enter the battlefield . Tell me, if it was a normal person, would they do that?" Tie Xue Leng asked .
Tie Ruo Nan shook her head, "No, Gu Masters put the clan’s honor and their own reputation higher than their own lives . But, that might not be certain, for in history there have also been many people who sacrificed their own reputation, right?"
"That’s right, but who were those people?" Tie Xue Leng’s gaze was deep .
Tie Ruo Nan considered, before her expression changed, "They were all outstanding individuals!"
"That’s correct . Throughout history, those who sacrificed their own reputations only had two aims . One was that they had a greater aim in mind, and compared to their aim, reputation is worth nothing . The other is to preserve themselves, defaming themselves to prevent suspicion . "
Tie Ruo Nan’s eyes shone, "Father, you are saying?"
"You are thinking too much . I just feel that this young man is very interesting, but too bad he is only a C grade . . . " Tie Xue Leng said .
The moonlight was like water on this night .
Fang Yuan walked on the empty street, his footsteps slightly heavy but filled with determination .
After interacting with Tie Xue Leng earlier, he was indeed what the rumors said . This Tie Xue Leng had a gaze that could see through the world, and his intelligence and wits were deep like a chasm . He swept through the Southern Border for tens of years, establishing his famed name; he really was an outstanding talent .
Wanting to remove his suspicions in front of such a person was extremely difficult . As long as they had enough time, they would definitely discover the truth!
"Now is a race against time . But, Mo faction’s recruitment, I can make good use of it . "
Not long ago in the Mo faction pavilion, Fang Yuan had given absurd demands . In return for marrying Mo Yan, he wanted a hundred thousand primeval stones, ten rare Gu worms and each at least Rank three .
This made Gu Yue Mo Chen furious .
He was marrying away his precious granddaughter, but Fang Yuan still had more demands?!
Such a shameless way to ask for gifts, and so greedy, it was really the last straw!
Thus, the discussion faltered, and he chased Fang Yuan out .
Fang Yuan left immediately without any inclination to stay .
He knew Mo Chen’s intention, thus he would definitely compromise . His absurd demands were just a way of bargaining, paying the lowest price when buying, and asking for the highest price when selling .
"But this matter has equal benefits and demerits . Although with more primeval stones I can feed the Heavenly Essence Treasure Lotus, my original plan to get out of the political spiral would be ruined . In tonight’s banquet, Gu Yue Mo Chen sacrificed himself to salvage my political career . From then on, he might face all sorts of elder’s suppression . "
Gu Yue village’s political situation now was: Clan leader was healthy, while for the two important elders, Gu Yue Chi Lian was dead but the Chi faction was not finished yet, as inheritor Chi Cheng was still alive . At the same time there was still Gu Yue Chi Zhong, an elder from the same faction . But Mo faction lost its inheritor and Mo Chen was heavily injured, falling to Rank two, unable to even keep his clan elder status .
The two formerly large factions had already gone downhill . The medicine faction in contrast were mostly healing Gu Masters . As supports they had little sacrifice while still keeping most of their strength, and were on the verge of rising up .
Medicine faction was originally the clan leader’s faction, but now it had the ability to be independent . Regardless of whether Gu Yue Yao Ji chooses to be independant or rely on the clan elder, in order to strengthen themselves, they would need to snatch and merge . And the weakened Chi and Mo faction were the best targets .
If they did not strike now, later on when the two factions stabilize internally it would be much more difficult .
"Being in the human world, many things are not up to me, why not just let down my hair and sail away to the seas? Sailing with the winds and breaking waves as I travel thirty thousand Li, that is the true demonic path I take!" Fang Yuan raised his head, looking at the moon as he sighed .
He wanted to get away from the political spiral, but Gu Yue Mo Chen dragged him back by force . He faced pressure from all the factions, and Tie Xue Leng was already starting to solve the case . On the other hand, Bai Ning Bing had already regained his new arm .
Like a boat travelling in the darkness with danger lurking everywhere, how was he to open up a path for himself?
