The Master Of Spirit Plants - Chapter 573
Zhang Yuxue took out a formation disc from her space ring.
Zhang Bei asked, “Yuxue, do you have any clues?”
Zhang Yuxue shook her head and said in disappointment, “No.”
When she set off, she stole from home the formation disc that could sense the whereabouts of the Dragon. She got a signal that indicated the presence of a Dragon near New Moon Mansion, but the signal was gone swiftly.
After that, they wandered around blindly and bumped into the nest of the Colorful Crystal Boa. Zhang Yuxue almost died.
Zhang Bei said, “Yuxue, let’s go back to the Upper District.”
Zhang Bei came to the Middle District with ambition and confidence, but Zhang Yuxue’s injury scared him and killed his ambition. If anything happened to Zhang Yuxue, Zhang Fang and he would get in big trouble when they got back to the Upper District.
Zhang Yuxue’s face darkened. She said sulkily, “You can go if you want. I will stay here.”
She felt frustrated. She had taken pains to leave the Upper District. If she went back without any achievements, she would be laughed at. She was too proud to bear with the embarrassment.
Zhang Bei looked at her angry face and smiled awkwardly, “Yuxue, don’t get me wrong. I’m concerned about your safety.”
Zhang Yuxue said indifferently, “I’m fine. It was an accident.”
Zhang Bei looked at her and said, “Yuxue, do you have any plans?”
Zhang Yuxue said lightly, “The mighty dragon is no match for the native serpent. The Middle District is not our home ground. I want to ask Zhang Tianyi to help us. He is local and should be useful.”
Zhang Bei said, “Yuxue, I have made an inquiry about him. Zhang Tianyi is the outcast of the Zhang family. We can’t count on him.”
Zhang Yuxue got hesitant.
Zhang Fang chimed in, “Yuxue, Zhang Tianyi is not a good person.” Although Zhang Fang was on bad terms with Zhang Bei, they had the same opinion of Zhang Tianyi.
Zhang Yuxue narrowed her eyes and said, “I don’t care if he’s good or bad. What I care is whether he is capable.”
“What can he do? He has a sharp tongue. He is arrogant because the family head Zhang Yuanzhi likes him. If he was capable, he wouldn’t have been sent here.” Zhang Fang was unsuccessful in the Upper District. He had thought he could lord over the Middle District. However, he met Zhang Tianyi, who didn’t bother to show any due respect.
Zhang Yuxue hesitated.
…
Zhang He hurried into Xiao Jinting’s study.
Xiao Jinting looked at him and said, “Steward Zhang, What’s up? You look nervous.”
Zhang He said, “Master Tianyi, the first young master has come.”
Xiao Jinting frowned. “Mr. Zhang, it’s different from what you told me.”
When Zhang He asked Xiao Jinting to pretend to be Zhang Tianyi, he didn’t mention the first young master of the Zhang family. Zhang He said it was simple to pretend to be Zhang Tianyi, and Xiao Jinting only needed to stay in the yard and count the Immortal Crystal.
Zhang He said, “It’s an accident. I didn’t expect him to come here.”
Xiao Jinting looked at Zhang He. “Can you ask the real Zhang Tianyi to come here?”
Zhang He said ruefully, “No. Young Master Tianyi went to take an adventure. I don’t know where he is.”
In fact, after Zhang Yuxue arrived, Zhang Yuanzhi had thought of swapping Xiao Jinting with Zhang Tianyi. As far as the family head was concerned, Zhang Tianyi was a talented alchemist and might conquer the proud girl from the Upper District.
If Zhang Tianyi could make Zhang Yuxue his woman, both Zhang Tianyi and the Zhang family would benefit from it. It was a pity that he lost contact with Zhang Tianyi.
Xiao Jinting asked, “Did Zhang Tianyi meet Zhang Tianhao before?”
Zhang He shook his head. “No, Young Master Tianyi was raised outside the family, so he didn’t meet the first young master.”
Xiao Jinting heaved a sigh of relief. “That’s good.” Since they didn’t meet before, he might not expose himself. He hoped that the first young master wouldn’t cause any trouble.
…
Zhang Tianhao brought dozens of Real Immortals, who crowded the room.
After Zhang Tianhao arrived, he didn’t bother to talk to Xiao Jinting. He went straight to Zhang Yuxue and befriended her.
Zhang He felt uneasy with the presence of Zhang Tianhao.
He said with jealousy, “The first young master has brought a crowd of guards. Looks like he is going to do something.”
Xiao Jinting nodded. “Really? That’s good.” Zhang Yuxue seemed eager to find a helper to kill Long Jingtian. The arrival of Zhang Tianhao must have pleased her.
Zhang He asked, “Master Tianyi, aren’t you worried?”
Xiao Jinting was speechless. Zhang He had regarded him as the real Zhang Tianyi. “What are you worried about? It’s good if the first master wins the affection of that lady.”
Zhang He got anxious by Xiao Jinting’s composure.
Zhang Yuanzhi and his wife appeared united outwardly but divided at heart. Zhang He took the side of Zhang Yuanzhi.
Xiao Jinting toyed with the ring on his finger in boredom. Zhang Yuxue looked polite, but she detested the people of the Middle District. It was natural. People from big cities looked down on those from small towns.
If Zhang Fang and Zhang Bei had not been with Zhang Yuxue, Zhang Tianhao might have had the chance. Those two men would make it difficult for Zhang Tianhao to win the affection of Zhang Yuxue.
Zhang Yuxue came from the Upper District and had seen all kinds of outstanding men.
