Chapter 58: The Secret Found
Translator: Alanese Fantasy
What just happened to the fish had been seen by the chef coincidentally, so his eyes suddenly became shady and the look on his face was terrifying.
Xi Que also saw what had happened, and her eyes were widened in astonishment. Then she quickly covered the bucket as if she was trying to hide it.
However, she was too late. The chef had left the kitchen in a hurry. He came to a small corner and dialed a number on his phone in a panic.
He took his hat off and said urgently the moment his call was picked up, “Information confirmed. Jiang Xiao is the reincarnation of Pei Siyan’s wife. What’s our next step?”
The man on the other side remained silent for a while as if he was not surprised by that.
A moment later, the man replied, “Keep an close eye on him.”
“That’s all? He’s the reincarnation of Lan Yuan! His blood can bring the dead magic fish back to life!”
The chef looked around cautiously as he said so; he was afraid of being seen by others.
“You saw it yourself?” The man on the other side asked calmly.
“I saw it myself! There could not be anyone else except for Pei Siyan’s wife whose blood has this kind of magical effect, so he’s definitely the reincarnation of Lan Yuan. No doubt.”
The chef was breathing out of order, probably because he was too nervous.
“If you let Jiang Xiao live like that, there might be a chance he could recollect of memories of Lan Yuan from centuries ago, and the consequence would be unimaginable. It’s the best to kill him while he’s still pregnant and weak now.”
“I know, but you’ve been going undercover there for over a hundred years. It took you so long to let Pei Siyan trust you. There’s no need exposing your identity for that.”
“But if we let Jiang Xiao live on, we could be in danger, right? He hates everyone from the Prime Family.”
The man on the other side became silent again. A while later, he added, “Don’t let anyone else know that, understand?”
“Should I keep the secret even from the barons?” The chef stunned.
“No one, except me.” The man had stated his point clearly enough.
“Alright then!” The chef could do nothing but to agree because this man was his master.
“But my young master, you really don’t need me to do it now? It’s a piece of cake for me to kill Jiang Xiao now.”
“Your mission is to observe.”
His voice was still calm. But coldness could also be heard in his voice as if he intended to tell the chef to stay put and not to scare their prey away.
He then asked again abruptly, “Did that magic fish really come back to life?”
“I can guarantee you that it’s true and it has evolved to a fish that can fight. It has a pair of those magic horns and its body is red. I’ve only seen that kind of magic fish in ancient books. The magic fish in the magic world now can no longer grow to the form of their ancestors due to the weather. But Jiang Sheng made them evolve with a tiny bit of blood! You can’t just leave him like that. Please allow me to report this to the barons!”
There was nothing left on the chef’s face except fear.
However, the man he called his young master was cold as always, “Not necessary. I’ll take care of this.”
“I don’t know why you wouldn’t report this to the barons, but once Lan Yuan came back to life through Jiang Xiao, Pei Siyan would have a powerful helper on their side. It would be as easy as turning their hand over to tear down the Prime Family by then.” The chef kept persuading for he was worried about that.
But the man hung up the call the moment he finished his sentence. It was clear that he was implying him to mind his own business and keep his hands off from this.
The chef scratched his head grumpily and then rushed back to the kitchen, but the magic fish in the bucket had been gone already.
“Where did it go?” The chef was checking everywhere for it.
Xi Que was hiding outside and watching him with a cold face the whole time.
The magic fish was in her hands; she frowned, looked at the fish for a while and then left with the magic fish in a hurry.
