373: Chapter 373 Threat? Fulfillment?
"Third Madam is right, Young Master Cao Feng is capable of giving you happiness."
Madam Si also walked out at this moment and said.
"You two are breaking the rules of Huaqing Pavilion."
Seeing this, Second Madam's expression became incomparably cold.
According to the rules of Huaqing Pavilion, they were not prohibited from participating in such matters; however, everything had to be the girls' own choice, and they were strictly forbidden from inducing or influencing the girls in any way.
The behavior of Third Madam and Madam Si clearly violated the rules of Huaqing Pavilion.
And the fact that these two stood out at this time clearly meant something was wrong.
"We are not breaking the rules; we are thinking of Lan Qin's future."
Madam Wu walked out and said.
"The rules of Huaqing Pavilion are a bit too rigid; I think they could use a change."
Madam Wu continued.
"Very well, Young Master Cao Feng has quite the capability."
Second Madam smiled.
At this moment, she had naturally figured it out.
She had guessed that Young Master Cao Feng had bought these three women off.
"If you have objections to the rules of Huaqing Pavilion, you can leave, or you can submit suggestions to the Chief Manager; no one is stopping you."
First Madam walked out at this moment.
An inexplicable aura radiated from her.
The three of them didn't dare to meet her gaze for a moment; after all, she was an Immortal Master-level powerhouse, the second Immortal Master-level powerhouse of their Huaqing Pavilion.
The first was naturally Li Zhiting.
Li Zhiting claimed to the outside world that she was a cultivator in the Bitter Sea Realm, and having lived for nearly a thousand years, her cultivation had certainly reached the Bitter Sea Realm.
"First Madam, these few are just offering suggestions to Huaqing Pavilion, why must you be like this?"
Young Master Cao Feng said, appearing elegant and refined.
"Huaqing Pavilion does not need such suggestions."
First Madam said in a deep voice.
"That is a bit too arbitrary; First Madam, I think it is necessary to listen to the suggestions of the majority."
Third Madam said at this moment.
"The majority? Who exactly are you referring to as the majority?"
First Madam said.
Third Madam, Madam Si, Madam Wu, Madam Lu, Seventh Madam, Eighth Madam, Ninth Madam, Shi Niang.
Excluding Madam Yi and Second Madam, the other eight stood together.
Clearly, these eight all agreed with Young Master Cao Feng.
"Very well."
First Madam nodded expressionlessly.
She hadn't expected that the eight members under them would actually stand together at this moment to force their hand.
It was only because the Master was not here; if the Master were here, even if these people were given a hundred times the courage, they would not dare to act like this.
As for the girls watching the commotion nearby, they did not express any opinions.
But many of them showed looks of worry on their faces.
"First Madam, it seems quite a few girls can no longer stand the system of Huaqing Pavilion," Young Master Cao Feng laughed.
"Lan Qin, stop thinking about that useless childhood sweetheart of yours; come with me, I am your true love."
Young Master Cao Feng looked at Lan Qin and said.
He appeared as if victory was already in his grasp.
"Excuse me, Young Master Cao Feng."
Lan Qin refused again.
She would not accept Young Master Cao Feng because of this.
Seeing that Lan Qin still maintained an attitude of refusal, Young Master Cao Feng's expression did not change in any particular way.
To him, it was only just beginning.
"I remember that two months ago, three girls and one man died in Huaqing Pavilion."
Young Master Cao Feng said at this moment.
Speaking of this matter, the expressions of First Madam and Second Madam darkened once again.
"Young Master Cao Feng, what do you mean?"
First Madam asked.
"It means nothing; I just want to take Lan Qin back, and I hope the two of you can grant us this wish."
Young Master Cao Feng looked at Lan Qin with an aggressive expression; he was already somewhat impatient to have Lan Qin.
"I said, the rules of Huaqing Pavilion will not change."
First Madam shook her head.
Even so, the rules of Huaqing Pavilion would not change.
There was only one person who could make the rules of Huaqing Pavilion change.
That was Li Zhiting.
No one else had that right.
"Then we can only let the City Guard of Dongchao City come; by then, things will not be so simple."
Young Master Cao Feng glanced at First Madam, then looked at Lan Qin, and said in a tone of regret.
Rules? If Huaqing Pavilion was gone, wouldn't these rules be gone too?
As long as Huaqing Pavilion was gone, and these rules were gone, then getting Lan Qin would be a simple matter.
"Then let the City Guard come."
...
"So, someone has set their sights on Lan Qin, and with the Chief Manager away, they are directly taking Huaqing Pavilion to task."
Lin Ming confirmed.
Taking Huaqing Pavilion to task? That is truly not putting Li Zhiting in their eyes; they are even daring to target the True Monarch of the Other Shore.
And then there is Lan Qin. She is the person of a Hidden Sword Peak Disciple.
"Hmm."
Meng Li nodded.
"We are definitely going to handle this matter."
Before Lin Ming could agree, Yu Yaoqin spoke first.
Previously, she had learned from Lin Ming that Li Zhiting was a good friend of Senior Martial Uncle Yun Hua, although she couldn't be 100% sure.
But from the Token of Yuanxu Mountain she produced, she knew that her relationship with Yuanxu Mountain was not ordinary.
Furthermore, Lan Qin was the future Dao Companion of a Hidden Sword Peak Disciple. And as the daughter of the Peak Master of Hidden Sword Peak, she felt she needed to intervene in such matters.
"Let's go."
Yu Yaoqin said somewhat impatiently.
Seeing this, Meng Li immediately took them and rushed to Huaqing Pavilion.
Outside Huaqing Pavilion, they saw a group of City Guard.
Cover-Sea Shark Clan. This clan had the ambition to dominate the ocean and wanted to become the King of the Ocean.
But wanting to become the King of the Ocean was not such an easy thing.
And the Cover-Sea Shark Clan had not only thought about it; like many sea clans, they had taken action for it.
The Cover-Sea Shark Clan had once set their sights on the Merfolk Clan, wanting to make the Merfolk Clan submit to them.
But how could the Merfolk Clan agree? The result was that the Cover-Sea Shark Clan directly attacked, wanting to use force.
It was said that the battle was extremely intense and deadlocked.
Towards the end, the Nirvana Ancestors of both sides entered the fray, and the Merfolk Clan even received outside help.
The Phantom Nether Clan, the Sea Demon Python Clan, and the Azure Sea Black Tortoise Clan attacked the Cover-Sea Shark Clan together.
With the four clans joining forces, after a fierce battle, they drove the Cover-Sea Shark Clan back and forced them out of this sea area.
It was also since then that the Cover-Sea Shark Clan had not set foot in this sea area again.
But now, the Merfolk Clan was actively attacking the Cover-Sea Shark Clan.
"Sea Demon Python against the Phantom Nether Clan, Merfolk against the Cover-Sea Shark; this ocean is becoming increasingly chaotic."
One person said.
"Small gossip, it is said that it was because the Cover-Sea Shark side made the first move; they infiltrated the Merfolk's territory and killed many Merfolk, and this is the Merfolk's counterattack."
"Damn. Could the Cover-Sea Shark have gotten the idea because the Phantom Nether Clan and the Sea Demon Python Clan started fighting?"
"Who knows? But I still hope the Merfolk Clan can win. At least the Merfolk can still do business with us; the Cover-Sea Shark is out of the question. I know quite a few merchant teams that have been attacked by the Cover-Sea Shark; these guys eat people without spitting out the bones."
"Speaking of the sea clans, I heard from my friend in the chamber of commerce that the Yao Race seems to be in chaos too."
"How chaotic?"
"I don't know, you have to spend Yuan Stones."
Information costs money.
