The Changfeng Cave Master was at a loss for words. He thought to himself, ‘Since you know there’s no proof, what use is there to report this to the Manor Head? Are you hoping that the Manor Head will help you in framing Miao Yi?’
Little did he know that Xiong Xiao was now fearful of the consequences and the person he was currently afraid of was Yang Qing, the man who now governed two Manors and held a position of great power.
As one of his oldest subordinates, it was unlikely that Xiong Xiao didn’t know how difficult it was to deal with Yang Qing. He’d gone from a nobody to a Cave Master, eventually becoming a Manor Head who held control over two Manors. Everyone had witnessed Yang Qing’s methods.
Now, Xiong Xiao was beginning to feel afraid. It wasn’t as if he didn’t understand why Yang Qing had taken away one of his mountains. He had done it to discipline Xiong Xiao, and to make it clear that he knew the true meaning between his meeting with the Hall Master.
