Chapter 851: Chapter 77 Bing Takes Risky Moves

Lu Qingshan’s face gradually darkened.

Would his subordinates really offend Ying Jie?

Not very likely.

Or rather, impossible.

They knew what was important and what was not.

So, it was clearly Ying Jie deliberately causing trouble.

The purpose was either to provoke him or to take down his two subordinates.

As for the reason.

Ying Jie was the eldest son of the Demon Lord Hong Lie.

He had never interacted with Ying Jie.

The only connection was that he had once misled Ying Jun’s death towards Ying Jie.

So, it was most likely related to this matter.

Was it revenge?

Chi Li explained with difficulty, “Such a thing happened in my mansion, I should help resolve it.

But, to be honest, Ying Jie Demon Lord is actually a senior to me, so it’s hard for me to step up for you and stop him.”

“It doesn’t make sense.”

He was indeed in a difficult position, not just brushing off Lu Qingshan.

To win over Qing Ge, he had already been this disrespectful to Hei Wu, naturally hoping for success.

In other words, he had already paid a certain cost.

Now with this incident, his plan to win over had encountered many obstacles out of thin air.

He didn’t expect Ying Jie to be so decisive.

Just after clarifying the situation with Ying Jie, seeing no extreme reaction from him, he thought Ying Jie intended to let it go.

Who would have thought that after knowing it wasn’t easy to trouble Qing Ge, Ying Jie directly took action against his subordinates.

This action was also somewhat inappropriate, but it was within a reasonable range–everyone knew Ying Jie was causing trouble deliberately, but it seemed faultless.

Chi Li rubbed his temples.

In terms of value to him, Qing Ge should be above Ying Jie.

After all, Ying Jie was his father’s man, no matter how strong, it had nothing to do with him, and was of no help to him.

Instead, Qing Ge, although of mixed blood, had unlimited potential, and behind him was the vast interest area of Sen Luo King Realm. If pulled into his camp, it would undoubtedly be a worthwhile deal.

But it was precisely because Ying Jie was his father’s man that even if he wanted to support Qing Ge, it was hard to step up directly.

Stepping up would make him unfilial.

Lu Qingshan saw Chi Li’s difficulty, stood up, and cupped his hands, “Lord Chi Li, my subordinates are in trouble, I am no longer in the mood to continue this Red Fruit Banquet, I will take my leave now.”

Chi Li nodded, “Understandable.”

“Your red fruits, I will have someone deliver them to your residence later.” He said.

“Also, those two Human Race girls, since you like them and want to take them as maids, I will have them sent to your residence too, as a small gift to congratulate your marriage.”

“Thank you, Lord.” Lu Qingshan did not refuse Chi Li’s kindness.

He was a son-in-law of Shi Wu lineage.

Shi Wu lineage belonged to Chi Venerable’s faction, so no matter what, he could only choose to join Chi Venerable’s faction.

This was a basic principle.

Chi Li valued him greatly, even tolerating him taking action at the Red Fruit Banquet.

Although all this was because of the strength and potential he had shown.

But undeniably, this was a Phoenix tree worth perching on.

Although he did not like Chi Li, he had no intention of breaking ties for now.

“If you have any trouble, you can still come to me, I can always help a bit.” Chi Li added, once again expressing his intention to win him over.

“Mm.” Lu Qingshan nodded slightly, turned, and left, leaving behind a crowd of people with mixed thoughts.

“Hmph!” Seeing his departing back, Hei Wu in the crowd couldn’t help but snort in dark pleasure.

Immediate retribution!

The beings present also began discussing this matter.

It was foreseeable that through their mouths, this matter would soon spread.

The family affairs of the Demon Lord were quite a good topic of gossip.

…….

Hong Lie Demon Lord’s mansion.

In a secluded, quiet room.

Three hazy figures.

One of them, a burly figure in a long robe, had a gloomy gaze.

Ying Jie.

In front of him were Yu Luo and Ye Ying, tightly bound and unable to move or struggle.

These were Qing Ge’s subordinates.

One was Sixth Grade, the other Eighth Grade.

But for Ying Jie, it made no difference, he had easily captured them and brought them back to his mansion.

“Carefully observed Qing Ge’s actions after arriving at Jian Luo King City, and found no flaws or loopholes.”

“So, either it really has nothing to do with him, or he did it very secretly.”

Ying Jie thought to himself.

He leaned more towards the latter possibility.

So, he needed a breakthrough point.

Shi Wu Demon Venerable had clearly stated, forbidding any more trouble for Qing Ge.

Even his father, the Demon Lord Hong Lie, could not defy this, let alone him.

“Cannot trouble Qing Ge, but moving his subordinates is of no consequence.” Ying Jie muttered with dark resentment.

Thinking this, he raised his eyes.

He looked at Yu Luo and Ye Ying, whom he had directly captured under the pretext of colliding, and brought them back to his mansion.

Shoot two hawks with one arrow.

If Qing Ge wanted to retrieve his two subordinates from his hands, with Qing Ge’s known connections, it would certainly not be enough.

It could also verify another possibility, whether Qing Ge had other allies in the Royal City.

“Now, be honest and confess.” He murmured.

He now wanted to verify his first speculation:

Did Qing Ge use some disguise technique.

At this moment, fear was evident in the eyes of Yu Luo and Ye Ying.
