Chapter 2278 - Tracked

“Third Elder, you have to be confident in yourself. You can easily accomplish this task,” First Elder encouraged.

“Heh, First Elder, as people commonly say, you don’t need a sledgehammer to crack a nut… No wait, it’s don’t try to fix porcelain without a metal clamp. I don’t have the metal clamp, but you do, so you’re the one to go,” Third Elder retorted with a snort.

What kind of cosmic joke was that? Who didn’t know Yin Yuerong was a poison master and had poison covering every inch of her home? He didn’t want to die without knowing the cause, so whoever wanted to go could go, but he wouldn’t go.

“Say, I think you two…”—Ye Wanwan was expressionless—”…should change your names to Shen Gongbao.”

“President, what do you mean?” Third Elder was confounded.

“What do I mean?” Ye Wanwan pursed her lips. “Do you need to ask? ‘Better a friend to die than me’.”

Third Elder was still confused.

“Hahaha, haven’t you read Investiture of the Gods… It’s that Shen Gongbao who sends other people to their deaths every time…” Big Dipper broke into guffaws.

Third Elder: “…”

First Elder: “…”

“The two Taoist Shens, I think you should go together so that you can look out for each other. I’m not telling you to sneak into the Yin residence; you just need to scout for the Yin residence’s current situation.”

And so, First Elder and Third Elder had no choice but to agree.

Big Dipper secretly said to Fu Mingxi, “D*mn, isn’t Yin Yuerong Sis Feng’s future mother-in-law…? Sis Feng was saying she didn’t care, but she’s now scouting her future mother-in-law’s house!”

“Judging from Yin Yuerong’s personality, she will probably be a difficult person to get along with. Sigh… this relationship between mother and daughter-in-law will be very tense in the future,” Fu Mingxi responded quietly.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“What are you saying?” Ye Wanwan asked.

“Nothing. We were just discussing what to eat tonight.” Big Dipper chuckled.

After First Elder and Third Elder left, Ye Wanwan was about to lead the others elsewhere when she sensed something and frowned.

Big Dipper’s expression also changed.

“Sis Feng, someone’s following us,” Seven Star said.

“Whether you’re human or a ghost, reveal yourself,” Ye Wanwan demanded coldly with an aloof expression.

A man and a woman walked out of the darkness with inexplicable smiles on their faces. “Miss Nie, we’re very apologetic for not being good hosts by welcoming your arrival to Tianshui City.”

“Who are you?” Ye Wanwan asked the two young people.

“Miss Nie, it’s unimportant who we are, but there’s someone who would like to meet Miss Nie,” the young man said in good humor.

Ye Wanwan’s brows locked together. She had just arrived in Tianshui City but was already discovered and tracked. The person who wanted to see her must be immensely powerful…

It couldn’t be… Ah-Jiu’s mother, Yin Yuerong, right…

“Are you from the Yin family?”

Ye Wanwan furtively probed.

Big Dipper and Fu Mingxi were shocked and reflexively backed away.

If they were really freaking from the Yin family, then they were poisonous people… and carried lethal poison in their every pore.

The young man and woman met each other’s eyes before shaking their heads at Ye Wanwan. The man said, “You’ve misunderstood, Miss Nie. We aren’t related to the Yin family at all. We belong to the Arbitration Council. It’s President Yi who’s inviting you.”

“Yi Lingjun?” Ye Wanwan was suspicious. She didn’t know Yi Lingjun, so why did he want to meet her?

“You say you’re from the Arbitration Council, but do you have proof?” Ye Wanwan demanded.

The young man pulled out a work ID from his clothes.
