Chapter 991 Only lead
As soon as Lin Fan used his Appraisal Eyes on this person, there was a screen that appeared in front of him.
With Ye Qing Huan knocking this person out, there was no resistance to his Appraisal Eyes skill at all.
When that screen appeared, there was a faint smile that appeared on Lin Fan’s face.
That was because just like before, he got the information that he wanted.
But there was also a trace of bitterness that was in that smile.
That was because from the screen that the Appraisal Eyes showed him, Lin Fan could see that the ones that had planted these spies were actually much higher up than he thought.
At first, Lin Fan thought that it was just an internal matter of the Heavenly Demon Sect since the Ye Family was involved. But it turned out that it wasn’t something internal, it turned out that it was a plot from an outside force.
There was also a trace of a strange look that was in Lin Fan’s eyes as he looked at this person.
After all, the information that he received from the Appraisal Eyes was different from what he saw previously.
The thing that made him feel strange the most was the fact that there were far more details compared to before. This time, it even told him who the one behind these spies were.
The Appraisal Eyes has never given him such a detailed description before.
It was so detailed that it even had information that no one else should have known about.
That made it hard for Lin Fan to say anything since if he were to tell Ye Qing Huan any of this, it was unlikely that she would believe him. It was too hard to believe that he would be able to find something like this just by looking at this person.
However, Lin Fan wasn’t able to think of a single thing that could explain this situation.
So in the end, he just said, “They’re from the Kunlun Sect.”
As soon as Ye Qing Huan heard this, she immediately knitted her brows. The look on her face wasn’t that she didn’t trust Lin Fan when he said this, it was more that she was taking what he said seriously.
Seeing this, Lin Fan continued by saying, “To be precise, it’s the fourth elder from the Jade Sun Peak that’s plotting against the Ye Family. He wants to use these spies of his to turn the Heavenly Demon Sect against each other, so that he can deal with your brother Ye Tian Xie.”
This time, Ye Qing Huan’s reaction was different.
She still had her brows knit, but she looked at Lin Fan with a strange look that seemed to have a trace of doubt.
As Lin Fan expected, it didn’t seem like Ye Qing Huan would believe him that easily. Of course, he couldn’t blame her since if he was in the same situation as her, he wouldn’t have believed these words either.
This kind of information wasn’t something that could be obtained that easily, so it was hard to think that he would be able to get this information just in this short period of time.
Lin Fan was prepared for Ye Qing Huan to rebuke him for saying this, but he found that it didn’t come.
Instead, Ye Qing Huan just said with a nod, “Alright, that’s more information than we’ve been able to get recently. I’m sure that this will help us with finding the rest of the spies.”
The way that she said this was as if she completely trusted what Lin Fan said.
As such, there was a strange look that appeared on Lin Fan’s face before he asked, “You believe me?”
Ye Qing Huan raised a brow to look at him before asking, “Of course, why wouldn’t I? Or are you saying that you’re lying to me and you’re giving me false information?”
A bitter smile appeared on Lin Fan’s face when he heard this.
After all, he could hear that she wasn’t being serious when she said this.
With the way that Ye Qing Huan said this, it was almost as if she was just teasing him rather than questioning him. It seemed that she had already made up her mind on what to believe.
That just made Lin Fan even more confused.
Did she really trust him so much that she would believe this kind of information that seemed crazy?
If that was the case, then wasn’t this dangerous for her?
But seeing the way that Ye Qing Huan looked at him, Lin Fan started to understand why she was acting this way.
At the same time, there was a part of him that didn’t want to betray the trust that she showed him.
So he asked, “Then what are you planning to do now?”
“Nothing.” Ye Qing Huan calmly said.
Lin Fan couldn’t help knitting his brows before asking, “Nothing? Are you really not planning on doing anything to these spies and let them continue doing what they’ve been doing?”
With a shake of her head, Ye Qing Huan said, “That’s not what I meant. I meant that there’s nothing left for us to do now that we’ve found this group.” Turning to look at the unconscious group of spies, she said, “This was the only lead that we had, so there’s nothing else for us to do right now since we don’t even know where to look.”
Another bitter smile appeared on Lin Fan’s face when he heard this.
Instead of answering, he turned back to look at the unconscious group of spies on the ground and narrowed his eyes once more to use his Appraisal Eyes. He was trying to find any information that he could about this group, but he wasn’t actually able to find anything else.
After giving that shocking piece of information about the fourth elder of the Kunlun Sect, there was nothing else that his Appraisal Eyes gave him.
It made him question the reliability of his Appraisal Eyes.
One moment it gave him shocking information like that and the next it wasn’t even able to give him basic information such as what the next moves of these spies were.
No matter how he looked at them or the things that they brought, he just wasn’t able to find a single thing about their next moves.
So Lin Fan could only look back at Ye Qing Huan with a defeated look before saying, “Then what do we do now? Are we going back since there’s nothing else left to do here?”
Ye Qing Huan shook her head before saying, “Why would I have called you all the way here if that was all that was required? If I really wanted just this bit of help, I could have brought these people to you, right? There was no need for me to bring you all the way here.” Your journey continues on My Virtual Library Empire
Lin Fan slowly gave a nod of agreement, though he was still trying to figure out what Ye Qing Huan was planning.
Ye Qing Huan didn’t waste any time as she explained, “If they gathered here, that means that there’s something that they want with this place. In that case, all that’s required is to wait until the people that they were supposed to meet show up. That’s why I got you that job at our restaurant.”
A bitter smile appeared on Lin Fan’s face again when he heard this.
It seemed that his job at the restaurant wasn’t over yet based on what Ye Qing Huan said.
However, she also didn’t tell him just how long they would have to wait before these people showed up. So it meant that he would have to keep working in that restaurant for a while before anything happened.
There were other things that Lin Fan needed to do, so it wasn’t as if he could stay here forever.
“Don’t worry, it won’t be forever. We’ll wait two weeks and if they don’t show up by then, I’ll leave people here to watch over them. After all, if they aren’t here in two weeks, they’ve most likely abandoned this place and the plan that they had for this place.” Ye Qing Huan said as if she could read Lin Fan’s mind.
Then with a smile, she added, “I know that you have other things to take care of and I don’t want to trap you here in a place like this. You’re meant for far greater things than this.”
When she was being this direct with her compliments, Lin Fan couldn’t help feeling a bit embarrassed.
With a cough, he said, “I wouldn’t say that.”
“I would.” Ye Qing Huan said in a voice that was a bit too serious for the mood of the moment.
That just made Lin Fan feel even more awkward.
In the end, Ye Qing Huan was the one that actually helped him out of this by saying, “Alright, let’s go back to the capital. I’m sure that you’ll want to rest before work tomorrow.”
Lin Fan slowly gave a nod before turning back to the spies to say, “What about them? What are you planning to do with them?”
Ye Qing Huan’s expression turned serious as she said, “I’ll take care of them. You don’t have to worry about them.”
Another strange look appeared on Lin Fan’s face when he heard this and he couldn’t help feeling a bit sorry for the group of spies, but that was only temporary since they were spies in the first place.
He just gave a nod before turning around to leave.
As he did, he heard Ye Qing Huan say something under her breath.
“Show them no mercy.”
