He didn’t want any uncertainty, because he was about to isolate himself for training. Besides, the desolate bones had a problem, refining it would cause deaths!
With a food shortage and people dying, it was easy to incite public rage. He was afraid of mutiny while he was isolated. They could flip the cauldron where the desolate bones were being refined. If his plans were destroyed, killing all of them was pointless.
From Lian Chengyu’s point of view, Yi Yun hated him, and didn’t have a trace of fear or respect towards him.
Yi Yun had already a record of inciting chaos. If Yi Yun sought revenge while inciting the people due to the starvation and deaths isolated him, Yi Yun could be the spark that spelled disaster.
Thinking of this, Lian Chengyu smiled again and patted Yi Yun’s shoulder gently once again.
Yi Yun’s heart skipped a beat, but before he had time to react, Lian Chengyu’s hand was already on his shoulder.
F**k! Yi Yun wished he could have chopped off Lian Chengyu’s hand. He felt Lian Chengyu was as sinister as a venomous snake!
Lian Chengyu said coolly, “What are you nervous about, are you afraid of me? You and your sister don’t have it easy. Take care of your sister.”
Saying that, Lian Chengyu withdrew his hand as Yi Yun felt that numbness again.
Lian Chengyu had patted his shoulders twice, but he could do nothing about it.
“If there are any problems, look for me,” said Lian Chengyu to Jiang Xiaorou. He was always smiling. Yi Yun frowned for he sensed that Lian Chengyu had the hots for his sister.
That must be it. It was no wonder he gave so much food, if he not for his coveting of Jiang Xiaorou. There was no reason to hand out the precious food.
The thing about approaching him if there were any troubles shed light on his thoughts. If Jiang Xiaorou were to go to him, indescribable things would definitely happen.
With a wave of Lian Chengyu’s hand, the warriors from the warrior preparation camp sealed the box containing the desolate bones.
The moment it was sealed, Yi Yun felt the disconnection between the Purple Crystal he had and the desolate bones. The floating light dots also disappeared shortly.
“This…” Something cropped up in Yi Yun’s mind as he saw the warrior preparation camp members carry the desolate bones away.
“Yun-er, what’s on your mind?” On the way home, Jiang Xiaorou had sensed that Yi Yun wasn’t paying attention and was frowning.
Yi Yun couldn’t be carefree for a venomous snake like Lian Chengyu had patted him on his shoulders twice. It was unknown what had been done. Yi Yun didn’t tell Jiang Xiaorou, as he didn’t want her to worry. Also, she was still young and wouldn’t be able to see through Lian Chengyu’s wolf in sheep’s clothing act.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Xiaorou suddenly said, “Yun-er, that Lian Chengyu, you must be careful of him. Try to avoid him if possible.”
Jiang Xiaorou’s words stunned Yi Yun for a while. He didn’t expect her to have such a keen intuition.
In actual fact, Lian Chengyu’s behavior could not be faulted on the surface. He was a Young master who was concerned about his people, an amiable and respected tribal clan leader.
Yi Yun was able to sense Lian Chengyu’s underlying motives as he had seen the acts of several politicians from Earth. People like Lian Chengyu could be found in historical books and international news. Yi Yun could only sense hypocrisy when he heard Lian Chengyu’s words. This insight wasn’t something the suffering poor could attain.
To Yi Yun, the two pats from Lian Chengyu on his shoulders clearly spelled out his hostility.
Yi Yun was stumped that Jiang Xiaorou was able to sense it too.
