Chapter 2356: Everything was swell

If this bill pa.s.sed, it’d be the same as finding Worriless Nie not guilty…

Furthermore, how could they allow the people of the Independent State to get married to lowly outsiders and contaminate their bloodlines?!?!?!

Worriless Nie!!!

It was all because of this woman…

If it weren’t for that woman, why would Ah-Jiu have defied her in this manner…

…

The next day at dawn:

At a private room in a teahouse:

Yin Heng wore a pandering smile as he looked at the man sitting in the head seat.

“Lord Yuan, about this matter…” Yin Heng started.

The man was dressed in a dirty black windbreaker and wearing a black face mask, concealing his full face.

Before Yin Heng could finish, the man addressed “Lord Yuan” waved his hand and picked up the steaming tea from the table, carefully tasting it.

Upon seeing this, Yin Heng didn’t dare to continue and could only wait until the man spoke first.

This “Lord Yuan” was the extremely elusive and famous leader of Fengsha Mercenary. However, very few people had seen his real appearance.

No one knew when Fengsha Mercenary was established; however, they not only had mercenaries but also extremely professional a.s.sa.s.sins. In the Twelve Independent States, many leaders of major factions had been a.s.sa.s.sinated by a.s.sa.s.sins from Fengsha Mercenary.

“Ah, Yin Heng.”

A long while later, Lord Yuan finished drinking his cup of tea and stared meaningfully at Yin Heng.

“Lord Yuan, if there are any problems, speak openly. We aren’t strangers and our brotherhood isn’t new,” Yin Heng said with a faint smile.

Lord Yuan nodded. “Alright, since you’ve said that, I won’t beat about the bush… Yin Heng, Yi Yunmo is a member of the Yi Clan, right?”

Yin Estate could only nod and truthfully admit: “Indeed… To be candid with you, aside from being a member of the Yi Clan, Yi Yunmo is also the daughter of the current president of the Arbitration Council, Yi Lingjun. She recently returned from abroad.”

“Oh… You’re telling me she’s the daughter of President Yi…?” Lord Yuan was pensive.

“Mn, that’s right.” Yin Heng nodded.

“Heh, Yin Heng, Fengsha has always been on good terms with the Arbitration Council, and we both stay in our own lanes. Now, you want me to accept this job. If we wanted to complete this mission, Fengsha would offend two major factions in the Twelve Independent States—the Yi Clan and the Arbitration Council. So… tell me, is this deal worth it?” Lord Yuan aloofly asked with a smile.

“Lord Yuan, I understand what you’re saying, but… I believe that with your abilities and the strength of Fengsha, taking care of Yi Yunmo would be as easy as blowing off dust. Moreover, I believe that the Arbitration Council and the Yi Clan absolutely wouldn’t discover any trace of your involvement,” Yin Heng replied.

Lord Yuan’s lips turned up. “Although that’s the truth, that’s not how it works. Our Fengsha might be capable, but this mission still has risks. Brother Yin Heng, don’t you agree?”

“Yes yes yes, you’re very correct, Lord Yuan…” Yin Heng nodded several times. “So don’t hesitate to raise any terms you have, Lord Yuan. As long as you’re willing to accept this mission, everything is negotiable, Lord Yuan.”

Lord Yuan’s fingers lightly tapped against the surface of the table as he seemed to mull over something.

Yin Heng could only wait quietly, not daring to disturb the man.

After several minutes, Lord Yuan finally looked up at Yin again. “In truth, it’s not that we can’t accept this mission… However, it won’t be easy.”
