Chapter 815: The He Family’s Plan (3)
“Lately, our master told me that there was a trap behind this and warned me not to get involved…”
He family!
Zhao Yu immediately guessed the truth.
“Thanks!”
Zhao Yu replied with two words, his eyes and expression turning cold.
He did not expect that the He family would resort to such unscrupulous means to force him out.
First, he used Cai Xun and the others, then he used Zhuge Ying to tempt them. Now, they didn’t even let Qian Xin Yue off.
He didn’t understand why Qian Xin Yue, a member of the Qian family, was expelled all of the sudden.
Did the Qian family not know about his relationship with Qian Xin Yue?
Or did the He family offer some benefits that the Qian family had no choice but to accept?
Or perhaps, Qian Xin Yue’s expulsion was purely a trap set up by someone to deceive Qian Duo Duo?
“I have been training for almost half a month. It is time to go out and take a walk…”
Zhao Yu stretched his body and slowly stood up.
However, at this moment, the old man who was sleeping beside him woke up.
“If you go out now, it will not be so easy for you to return this time…”
Zhao Yu was stunned for a moment. He didn’t expect the oracle to be awake this time, but he seemed to know his situation and was even willing to remind him. “Thank you for your concern!”
“I have a reason to go out…” Zhao Yu cupped his hands and said seriously.
” Because of a woman?!” The oracle seemed to have seen through his thoughts. He shook his head and said, “A man has no woman in his heart. It’s natural for him to draw his saber quickly.”
“This kind of bond can only become your burden, weakness, and flaw…”
It seemed to be a reminder, but it also seemed to be a sigh, making Zhao Yu feel that this person had a story.
“Thank you for your reminder, Oracle. However, if a person is blindly rational, it will be too boring!”
Zhao Yu smiled.
He knew very well that going out now would bring about a lot of risks and he might not able to stay alive.
However, Qian Xin Yue had followed him for a period of time. Although he had asked Qian Xin Yue if she was willing to leave with him.
The answer he received was, “I have already made vow to commit my life to Miss…”
“You didn’t let her down and she let you down!”
Zhao Yu sighed, feeling that it was not worth it for Qian Xin Yue.
She devoted herself entirely to Miss Dodo Do, but she turned around and betrayed her.
Seeing that Zhao Yu had made up his mind, the oracle nodded and said no more.
Only after Zhao Yu left did the oracle sigh softly, “Rationality… You are right! Who can remain rational from beginning to end?!”
Before Zhao Yu could leave the temple, as he passed through the front hall, many people gave him strange looks.
In places where they thought he wouldn’t notice, they quietly passed on messages to the outside.
“You actually came out!”
In the front hall, to Zhao Yu’s surprise, an elder of the Wu family took the initiative to speak to him.
Zhao Yu pause and look at the elder in surprise.
The Wu family elder shook his head, “You should know that what’s info you received was a trap, right?!”
“I know!” Zhao Yu nodded.
“Then why are you still going?!” The Wu family elder asked in confusion.
Zhao Yu chuckled softly, “In life, there are things we should do and things we shouldn’t. She has never betrayed me, so why should I?!”
“But what confuses me is that I took the Wu family’s treasure. Why would the Wu family come to warn me?!”
The Wu family elder seemed surprised by Zhao Yu’s response. After a moment of reflection, “It’s nothing, just letting you know that this trap was set by the He family alone, with no involvement from the Wu family…”
“Moreover, the Wu family can afford to let go. A mere magical artifact isn’t worth resorting to such petty means…”
Upon hearing this, Zhao Yu couldn’t help but laugh, recalling the earlier provocation by Huo Ying and the troubles that ensued.
The Wu family elder blushed, understanding what Zhao Yu was laughing at, and coughed, “To be honest, the He family has gone mad, driven to desperation. At this point, the Wu family doesn’t want to get involved…”
“As for the Silent Array Flag, I’ve heard you need resources. Perhaps we can make a deal?!”
“A deal…”
Zhao Yu consulted his Super Brain and found that the upgrade of the Silent Array Flag had reached 43%. It should be successfully upgraded in a while.
As for the talisman treasure, the Super Brain had long since analyzed it, but the gains were minimal, only speeding up Zhao Yu’s understanding of those tadpole-like characters.
The main reason is that the power of the talisman treasure comes from the fourth tier. Every use consumes this power, and once it’s depleted, the talisman treasure is useless.
“We can talk about the deal later, but not now. Let me study the Silent Array Flag first, and then we’ll discuss it…”
Zhao Yu didn’t reject the idea, giving the Wu family a glimmer of hope, and then he walked out of the temple.
It was like emerging into the light again; the dazzling brightness made Zhao Yu squint his eyes shut. After a few seconds, he slowly opened them to adjust.
“Whoosh–!”
A breeze blew from afar, rustling the dry leaves on the ground.
On the street, people hurried by, seemingly in a rush, yet discreetly watching Zhao Yu’s movements.
There was no doubt that the area around the temple was filled with spies.
Zhao Yu smirked coldly, raised his hand, and hailed a taxi.
“Sir, where to?!”
The taxi driver was a woman in her thirties or forties, smiling warmly.
“East side of the city!” Zhao Yu replied curtly, turning his head to look out the window.
“Alright!”
The driver didn’t say much more, quickly starting the car and heading towards the destination.
