Chapter 1278 - 1278: Go back to Gather Reinforcements

How could the guard not understand him? His young master wanted to use those two to get rid of the guard leader and the others, right?

“Young Master, that’s a good idea, but will they attack Chief and the others? What if…”

“There’s no ‘what if’,” Young Master Nie interrupted him before he could finish speaking. “If there’s a ‘what if’, we’ll die,” he said coldly.

He already knew that he would not have been able to leave Scorching Rock Peak alive even without Yue Suiyu’s ‘disappearance’. Was the Yueming Emperor a magnanimous person?

Even if that thing landed in his hands, he would not let the world know. He would only silence him and find an excuse to explain how he died.

Soon, the Nie family would come to accompany him on the road to hell.

Unfortunately, his family members were still engrossed in their joy. They believed the Nie family would soar into the skies thanks to his ability.

He felt sad about that.

“Brother Cheng, would you think I’m too cold-blooded if I give up on the Nie family and never return to the Yueming Empire?” he asked softly.

“I won’t,” the guard, Brother Cheng, replied without thinking.

He knew Young Master Nie’s situation very well. After all, he had been protecting Young Master ever since he was discovered to be capable of sensing the location of the treasure.

In fact, he was originally one of the Yueming Emperor’s men. However, he gradually stopped wanting to be his lackey.

“Young Master, you’re part of the Nie family’s collateral branch in the first place. Given the current situation, you can leave the Nie family. Just pretend you’re not part of them.”

“Ha!” Young Master Nie chuckled.

He belonged to the Nie family’s collateral branch. Had it not been for his ability, he might never have been orphaned.

Everyone in the Nie family thought he didn’t know, but he knew long ago that the Nie family had killed his entire family to snatch him.

“Huff! Let’s take things one step at a time. No matter what, we have to find the treasure first.”

He fixed his gaze on the guard leader, who had already walked up to Qian Jiyun and the others. He was looking forward to what would happen to this person.

Meanwhile, the guard leader stopped in front of Qian Jiyun.

He had always been proud in front of the other guards, but he was not confident in front of Qian Jiyun.

He had no choice. The strong were respected in this world. As someone with a lower cultivation level, he had to bow down to Qian Jiyun.

“Young Master Qian, Madam Qian, it’s been hard on you to help us find the Princess these days. We haven’t found her, so we’re too embarrassed to trouble you any further.

“We’ve decided to go back and gather reinforcements. We’ll ask the Yueming Emperor to send more people to help us. You must have other things to do, right? Why don’t we split up?”

He looked at Qian Jiyun and almost said, “You can leave now. We won’t look for that stupid princess anymore.”

“Do you need everyone to go back to gather reinforcements?” An Jiuyue retorted without waiting for Qian Jiyun to say anything..
