Stunning Dragon Wife
Chapter 978 - 977: Jiang and Feng Join Forces
Feng Qing had a calm expression.
"Have you forgotten? This is our Flying Fox Sect's territory. How hard could it be for me to find out this information?"
It's obvious that there are spies they arranged within Jiang Qin's convoy.
Zhang Xiaoshan knitted his brows tightly.
With so many people around, it would be somewhat inconvenient for him to search for the Sword Palace's hidden treasure.
He whispered to Jiang Qin,
"Miss Jiang, the number of Spiritual Medicines is limited. If too many people go, how will we divide them? Besides, this guy doesn't seem like a good person to me. Who knows what tricks he might be up to? Better to stay away."
"I have the same thought."
Then Jiang Qin turned and scolded Feng Qing.
"You better stay away from me. You are the biggest threat to me on this journey."
"No, I can't."
Feng Qing replied firmly.
"There's no room for negotiation on this. I must accompany you into the mountains, or you'll have to come back to the city with me now and then fly back to Taiwan."
"Are you threatening me?"
"Threatening?"
"You're the eldest Miss of the Jiang family. How dare I threaten you? But this is your grandfather's order."
"My grandfather? How is that possible? How could my grandfather tell you such things?"
Jiang Qin looked incredulous.
Feng Qing continued.
"I'm not lying. It really is your grandfather's directive, and your movements were also told by him."
"Your father and your grandfather have made some agreements, which is absolutely true. If you doubt it, you can make a call to confirm."
"Miss, should we call and ask?" Yang Hai was also somewhat uncertain at this moment.
"Alright then."
Jiang Qin used a satellite phone to contact home.
The call lasted only two or three minutes.
From her initial arrogance to final dejection, Jiang Qin's change in attitude confirmed that Feng Qing was not lying.
Feng Qing, looking proud, spoke to Jiang Qin.
"Xiao Qin, I have no ill intentions towards you; you know this. Rest assured, Luo the Protector and I are only here to protect you. We definitely won't interfere with your freedom, relax."
Jiang Qin was disgusted with Feng Qing to the bone, but she couldn't go against her grandfather's orders.
"Miracle Doctor Zhang, what do you think we should do about this matter?"
For this trip, Zhang Xiaoshan was the core.
Before departure, it was stated that everything would be based on Zhang Xiaoshan's decisions.
Zhang Xiaoshan pondered slightly.
Feng Qing's motives are impure, that's for sure. His claim about not caring about Zhu Changxiong's death is only a temporary measure. If Jiang Qin wasn't holding them off, once she left, they would certainly make a move against me.
But why are they insistent on escorting Jiang Qin?
Especially since Feng Qing's father has such close ties with the Jiang family in Taiwan.
To seize the position of Sect Leader of the Tiger Sect, besides internal power, one also needs strong external support.
Could it be that the Jiang family is the Feng family's external ally?
The situation here is complex.
By bringing Feng Qing along into the mountains, perhaps something might be revealed.
Moreover, even if I don't allow Feng Qing and his group to follow, they wouldn't give up so easily.
"Alright then, if they insist on protecting you, let them come along."
"It's getting late. Let's move quickly."
Saying this, Zhang Xiaoshan got into the car.
Upon receiving permission, Jiang Qin immediately shouted to Feng Qing.
"Since my grandfather has spoken, you can follow, but let me remind you, put away your schemes. If you have any ulterior motives, I'll ruin you."
"Hehe, Xiao Qin, you know my intentions; I assure you they are not bad."
"Come on my car, my car is big."
"Scram."
Jiang Qin shot Feng Qing a look of disgust and got into her own car.
The two convoys merged into one and began a grand journey into the mountains.
"Damn it."
In the car, Feng Qing, who had been suppressing his inner anger, finally erupted.
"That Miracle Doctor Zhang is damnable. Zhu Changxiong was a staunch confidant of our Feng family, supported by my father after much effort to his current position, and Zhang just killed him, ruining my dad's plans."
"Now he dares to compete with me for Jiang Qin's affection. If I don't kill him, I won't be able to calm my rage."
"You're no match for him. Let me handle it."
Seated beside him, Luo Ji spoke.
"I've already succeeded in True Qi Transformation. How can I not be his equal?" Feng Qing protested.
Luo Ji bluntly said.
"Zhu Changxiong achieved Qi Transformation Early Stage long before you, yet he was still killed, wasn't he? Initially, I thought Zhu underestimated his opponent, but just now, I noticed that kid's qi was strong and steady. Even I couldn't judge his true strength, which seems to be on par with mine."
"Let's wait and utilize him to find the millennium Spiritual Medicine, then I'll seize an opportunity to kill him."
...
After entering the mountains, they camped at a renowned hostel at the foot of the mountain.
Some people stayed in rooms while others, due to insufficient lodging, slept in the cars.
Zhang Xiaoshan was sound asleep in a large snow-view room.
Before finding the Spiritual Medicine, he was absolutely safe. In fact, Feng Qing and others were more worried about Zhang Xiaoshan encountering danger and wished they could assign him more security personnel.
Jiang Qin was sleepless.
Around eleven o'clock at night, she was still discussing plans with Yang Hai in her room.
"Uncle Yang, what do you think my grandfather is planning? Clearly knowing that bastard Feng Qing is not a good thing, yet he lets him come to protect me, isn't this driving me into a den of wolves?"
