"You mean Ling Buyang was killed, and instead of reporting it, Xu Xin escaped alone?"
Unlike the shock of the others, Zhang Xuan sensed something was amiss.
"The duty of a Life Guardian is to protect the Fate Master. Now, with the protected one dead due to a serious dereliction of duty, the only option for survival is to flee..." Yu Longqing explained.
Zhang Xuan furrowed his brow, "Does that mean that no one knows about Ling Buyang's death?"
Yu Longqing nodded, "Aside from the two of us, only he knew. And another, Liu Tianzheng, who knew about it was killed on the spot by him!"
Zhang Xuan was astonished, "Liu Tianzheng is dead?"
Although that guy had troubled him time and again, after all, he was Liu Mingyue's father, the head of a clan. To think he was killed so quietly... Indeed, to obtain great benefits, one must face great dangers. And yet, he gained not a single benefit, his family fortunes squandered, and now dead—to say he met a tragic end would be an understatement.
