249: Chapter 249 The Evil Suppression Division

Seemingly discerning the thoughts of Patriarch Yun Donglai, Wang Hengshan gave a genial smile and said half-jokingly, "Patriarch Yun, please make yourself at home. Do not be constrained; do you think this Commander would actually eat you?"

"My Lord, you are joking. A powerhouse like yourself is something I have only seen once in my life, which is why I lost my composure." Hearing this, Patriarch Yun Donglai returned the smile, his expression relaxing significantly.

"I heard that Patriarch Yun sought me out to discuss an important matter. This Commander recalls no prior association with the Yun Family, so I am quite curious today as to why Patriarch Yun has come to find me." Wang Hengshan sat down in a random seat before continuing.

Patriarch Yun Donglai followed suit, finding a nearby seat and sitting down. "This matter is a bit of a long story; it all started when my Yun Family set sail. If you are not in a hurry, Commander, allow me to explain it in detail."

Wang Hengshan smiled, "Then this Commander shall listen attentively."

Next, Patriarch Yun Donglai began to recount the events after setting sail. Of course, the entire content was a version he had heavily adapted.

All in all, it was roughly thirty percent true and seventy percent false.

The matter of the Lei Clan intercepting them was naturally omitted. The events on Tianyuan Island were adapted to have taken place out at sea.

Whether it was the betrayal of Yun Bing or the specific details of the battle, nothing was true. Only the situation regarding the deaths of the Blood Demon Sect members and the casualties of the Yun Family were among the few truths.

"The situation is roughly like this." After finishing, the throat of Patriarch Yun Donglai felt a bit dry; he grabbed a teacup and drank the tea inside in one gulp.

Beside him, after listening to the account of Patriarch Yun Donglai, Wang Hengshan's brow furrowed in deep thought, as if he were pondering the veracity of the words.

After a few breaths, Wang Hengshan finally spoke, "I did not expect Patriarch Yun's voyage to be so perilous. However, your arrival today has actually helped me solve an urgent problem."

"My Lord, what do you mean by that?" Patriarch Yun Donglai narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at Wang Hengshan in confusion.

"Recently, this Commander has been investigating clues regarding the Blood Demon Sect, but I have had no leads. Seeing Patriarch Yun today, I finally understand that our Bureau's direction of investigation was wrong." Wang Hengshan said.

Hearing this, Patriarch Yun Donglai's heart jolted. Everything was just as his Old Ancestor had guessed; the Evil Suppression Bureau had long since begun investigating the Blood Demon Sect.

Even top-tier third-rate families like them had not received any relevant intelligence. Rather than calling it a secret of the Evil Suppression Bureau, it would be more accurate to say that a Great Family at the level of the Yun Family was not yet qualified to come into contact with it.

When it came down to it, his Yun Family was only a third-rate family.

If not for Pei Qingyun, even if the Old Ancestor of his Yun Family had personally taken the field, he would only have fallen at the hands of those two Blood Demon Sect Grandmasters, and might not have even made it past the Lei Clan.

Only those second-rate families were the Great Families standing at the top of Longnan Prefecture.

"It was just a matter of Destiny. If I can be of help to you, Commander, that would naturally be for the best. These Blood Demon Sect Cultivators wantonly slaughter the citizens of our Great Jing; I have merely contributed a meager effort." Patriarch Yun Donglai said.

"If everyone possessed such righteousness as Patriarch Yun, how would this evil Blood Demon Sect dare to violate the territory of our Great Jing?" Speaking to this point, there was a deep anger in Wang Hengshan's words, though how much of it was genuine was unknown.

To this, Patriarch Yun Donglai remained noncommittal. However, on the surface, he still acknowledged it, "Commander, you flatter me."

However, the next moment, Wang Hengshan suddenly changed the subject, "I wonder if Patriarch Yun would be willing to take this Commander to the coastal region for a look. This Commander wishes to understand the general locations where these Blood Demon Sect Cultivators appear."

"That is naturally no problem. It is just that my Yun Family suffered heavy casualties this time, and our only merchant ship is still under repair. If you wish to go out to sea, I am afraid it will be somewhat difficult. If you are not in a hurry, Commander, you will just need to wait for a few days. Once my Yun Family repairs the ship, we can set sail." Patriarch Yun Donglai smiled and did not refuse, but deep down, he was already cursing.

This Wang Hengshan was purely trying to freeload off his Yun Family. Contributing both manpower and effort. As expected, there was not a single good thing in the Evil Suppression Bureau.

If it were not for the fact that the Yun Family had a port and maritime business, he really would not want to get involved in the Blood Demon Sect matter. Even though his Yun Family had long since formed a blood feud with the Blood Demon Sect.

His Yun Family was ultimately too weak. If they insisted on clashing head-on with the Blood Demon Sect Cultivators, it would only be like a mayfly trying to topple a tree. By then, the vengeance would not be avenged, and the Yun Family might even be finished.

Sacrificing the Family for the sake of one person was almost impossible to happen. Not to mention the kind of situation where you beat the small ones, and the big ones come; you beat the big ones, and the old ones come. No Family would be so stupid as to openly send people to their deaths one by one. Either you kill them with one blow, or you temporarily admit defeat. Or you cause trouble in the shadows. The one thing a Great Family never lacked was people. Apart from the strongest and the successor who were difficult to replace, anyone could be replaced.

"If that is the case, then forget it. Patriarch Yun is so righteous; it is a blessing for our Great Jing. This Commander has some other matters to attend to, so I will not entertain Patriarch Yun any further. Another day, I will pay a visit to your residence."
