Chapter 559: Chapter 311: The Plan Changes
Chu Qing’s words were abrupt, like a flash of lightning in the dark, chaotic night.
Not only did Wu Qianhuan and Gentle feel shocked, but Liu Qingyan and Su Ningzhen also suddenly widened their eyes.
And Han Qiuyuan’s pupils contracted suddenly, as if the deepest secret within his heart had been exposed.
But this process lasted only for a moment; the next moment, his face showed a look of confusion:
"What are you talking about?"
His tone and expression, all were impeccable.
If Chu Qing hadn’t been observing him carefully all along, it would have been difficult to catch that fleeting change in his expression.
Chu Qing smacked his lips, without paying attention to Han Qiuyuan.
The deceitful thing had already been revealed, so he lowered his head and began to ponder.
The reason for the question was because he saw Han Qiuyuan visiting Han Tingting’s room late at night, asking his sister to leave Little Cold Valley.
This matter was extremely strange.
Chu Qing couldn’t help but think deeply...
After all, now Little Cold Valley was crowded with people, sending his daughter away at this time was quite unfounded.
Instead, it might attract attention... during such a state, with ghosts and monsters gathering, who knows what kind of people might emerge with what kind of thoughts?
Han Yiren, managing Little Cold Valley for so many years, how could he not consider the risks involved?
Unless there was another risk far greater than this, making him disregard it and have to send his daughter away.
Considering the Celestial Evil Cult behind Little Cold Valley, and the purpose behind this so-called grand event.
Chu Qing initially thought Han Yiren had discovered the danger in this matter and didn’t want his daughter involved.
Thus, thinking even deeper, he thought Han Yiren had no confidence in this matter, wanting to leave a way out for his daughter.
But in this case, problems arise.
If there’s no confidence, why do it?
If ambitious, one should plan carefully before acting; when taking action, one should have complete assurance, otherwise, the consequences are too much for them to bear.
But if this were true, then why send Han Tingting away?
Chu Qing thought again and believed there was only one possibility... Han Yiren was also powerless to act.
The Martial World is chaotic; it seems calm but is turbulent inside, with anyone involved finding it difficult to remain unaffected.
If Han Yiren was powerless, was he threatened by the Celestial Evil Cult?
Chu Qing initially thought so... and felt it necessary to meet Han Yiren.
Perhaps he could learn more from the mouth of this Valley Master of Little Cold Valley.
But when Han Tingting mentioned that the visitor three days ago was their family guest, Chu Qing suddenly realized... something was off.
The visitor three days ago was Han Qiuyuan, and Han Qiuyuan is the third master of the Star Split Mansion.
If Little Cold Valley belonged to Star Split Mansion, then there were two things worth discussing.
The first thing is, with a background like Little Cold Valley, how could they be threatened by the Celestial Evil Cult?
He’s not a solitary figure; with one of the Three Mansions as a backing, even if Star Split Mansion is not a match for the Celestial Evil Cult, the affair would cause a big stir throughout Lingbei, known to all.
Then the crisis of Little Cold Valley would no longer be a matter of Little Cold Valley alone.
But a major issue of the entire Lingbei being invaded by the Celestial Evil Cult.
This is the first point.
The second matter has nothing to do with the Celestial Evil Cult... it must be known that where they are now is within the borders of Liaoyuan Mansion.
As a branch of the Han Family, Little Cold Valley didn’t settle in Star Split Mansion but traveled a long distance to Liaoyuan Mansion, what does this imply?
If Liaoyuan Mansion knew the true origin of Little Cold Valley, the destruction of Little Cold Valley would be imminent.
So, what is the purpose of this action?
After thinking it through, Chu Qing concluded there were roughly two possibilities.
The first possibility is that Han Yiren had a great dispute with the Han Family early on, leading him to break away from the Star Split Mansion, secretly infiltrating Liaoyuan Mansion, rooting down, establishing this place.
But looking at the current situation, it doesn’t seem right.
Han Qiuyuan came to visit, Han Yiren welcomed them with his followers, how could there be any slightest gap between them?
The second possibility is that, from the beginning, this was a chess move by the Han Family.
From the very start, Little Cold Valley was controlled by the Han Family.
Now, does the Han Family know about Little Cold Valley’s collusion with the Celestial Evil Cult?
This is how Chu Qing came to this extremely abrupt question, and the answer was evident.
The Han Family was also in cahoots with the Celestial Evil Cult.
Han Yiren was likely just a trivial figure; from the beginning, he was a knife of the Han Family, then coerced by the Celestial Evil Cult and the Han Family, leading to this so-called ’grand event’.
He had no confidence in this matter, understanding deeply his helplessness.
Success would be delightful, but if he failed, he would be the scapegoat, pushed out as a knife.
Precisely because he knew the risks involved in this matter, Han Yiren thought to send his daughter away!
Even if something happened to him and his son, at least there’s still a daughter.
Of course, the subsequent thoughts were just Chu Qing’s wishful thinking, possibly merely speculation, yet the person here could prove this.
So he asked again:
"What conditions did you agree with Han Yiren to allow Han Yiren to agree to let Han Tingting go down to walk the Martial World?"
When Chu Qing mentioned colluding with the Celestial Evil Cult earlier, Han Qiuyuan’s expression inadvertently showed a slight flaw.
Now Chu Qing’s words really made Han Qiuyuan feel incredible:
"How... how do you know this?"
Though these words said nothing, they seemed to say everything.
