Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation - Chapter 660
Chapter 660: Chapter 532 Five Years Later_1
“If Daoist friend has not yet left Purple River State, could you possibly go to Yao Lake Immortal Market and take this child away from here?”
“You only need to remove him from Purple River State. Wherever you leave the child, I will be eternally grateful.”
“After all, as the Zhao Family Patriarch, almost every move I make is watched by others.”
“Even the act of relocating members of the family cannot escape the attention of the other Golden Core Families.”
“Perhaps, it is precisely your assistance this time that will allow the Zhao Family to retain this sliver of lineage.”
“Fei Hu is here; I thank Daoist friend extensively.”
He Song’s gaze lingered over the message from True Monarch Fei Hu, lost in thought for a moment.
The him from that time.
Heralded his hurried departure after True Monarch Fei Hu mentioned the Twin-winged White Tiger and inferred that great chaos would likely ensue in Purple River State.
In such circumstances, although He Song had left Purple River State for several months, he was still quite interested in news from there.
However, since He Song had no intelligence sources in Purple River State, he was unaware of any significant events that might have occurred there in the last few months.
But now, having received the message from True Monarch Fei Hu, stating that he had set out with several other Golden Elixir Masters to capture the Twin-winged White Tiger,
He Song finally understood how far the situation had progressed.
The Twin-winged White Tiger, a Golden Elixir demonic beast.
Its scarcity is indubitable.
Even though True Monarch Fei Hu had great trust in He Song, when it came time to actually mobilize and begin the search for the Twin-winged White Tiger, he still held a certain wariness towards He Song’s presence.
Previously, True Monarch Fei Hu had spoken to He Song about the Twin-winged White Tiger and invited him to participate.
But He Song had directly declined.
After that conversation, He Song turned and left, quickly leaving Purple River State.
Now.
Since True Monarch Fei Hu had officially set out, gathering several Golden Elixir Masters to search for the Twin-winged White Tiger,
he would naturally try to probe and discern He Song’s current whereabouts.
Of course, he couldn’t just directly ask He Song where he was or if he was hiding and prepared to snatch their prey.
Thus, He Song held such a letter in his hands.
Although True Monarch Fei Hu had once had great trust in He Song and genuinely believed that someone of He Song’s stature would not stoop to dishonorable deeds,
days had passed, and upon the actual preparation to capture the Twin-winged White Tiger, the seeds of worry naturally grew day by day in True Monarch Fei Hu’s heart.
What if.
He Song, abandoning all pretense of face, had already laid an ambush around them, ready to swoop in at the right moment?
What if.
He Song had already gathered other Golden Elixir Masters to capture the Twin-winged White Tiger as soon as it was found?
What if…
As they began their endeavor and felt success drawing ever nearer,
prudent thoughts that had never arisen before stealthily emerged in their minds, slowly bringing anxiety to True Monarch Fei Hu.
He Song, who was informed of the entirety of his plans and had left early without taking part,
naturally raised suspicion and vigilance in the heart of True Monarch Fei Hu.
Again, that phrase.
What if?
From between the lines of the letter, He Song discerned True Monarch Fei Hu’s true intent.
According to what True Monarch Fei Hu said,
the purpose of sending this message to He Song wasn’t actually to probe where He Song was.
Rather, it was because the search for the Twin-winged White Tiger was uncertain.
Even True Monarch Fei Hu himself was doubtful about whether he could return alive.
To prevent the annihilation of the entire Zhao Family, True Monarch Fei Hu had secretly sent some of the Zhao Family’s young members elsewhere.
By doing so, even if True Monarch Fei Hu were to fall and the Zhao Family be slaughtered, there would still be descendants who could survive.
After so many years, there may still be a chance for them to rise again.
However.
These words seem somewhat too deliberate.
First, he inquired about where He Song was and whether he had left Purple River State.
He claimed he had absolutely no intention of probing He Song.
Yet afterward, he asked that if He Song hadn’t left Purple River State, to help him.
And, he mentioned that if possible, go to Purple River Immortal State, within Yao Lake Immortal Market, and take the Zhao Family’s child away.
The meaning expressed explicitly and implicitly in his words,
isn’t it that he suspects He Song might still be near Purple River State, or even directly within it?
Otherwise, why would True Monarch Fei Hu bother asking He Song for help?
You should know,
when He Song left Purple River State, he had clearly told him that he would soon leave the state.
After several months, knowing full well He Song had likely left, he still seeks help.
The intent is clearly revealed.
He just wants to know where He Song is now and whether he will pose any threat to his current mission.
But True Monarch Fei Hu finds it hard to speak plainly.
After all, he had once had great faith in He Song and didn’t think He Song would do such things.
But now that the plan has commenced, and a glimpse of success is within reach, the thoughts in True Monarch Fei Hu’s heart cannot remain as steadfast as before in believing that He Song will not pose a threat to his actions.
So, he had to resort to this indirect manner of sending letters to probe.
After He Song read through the letter in his hands, he saw through True Monarch Fei Hu’s true intentions quite clearly.
