Chapter 105 Furious Tian Xue

When the carriage arrived at the city gates, the guards had just opened up the investigation station.

But seeing that it was the Mercenary Guild carriage, the guards didn't waste any time as they let them in.

This was the perk of being from a large organization like the Mercenary Guild, people knew when to give you respect.

When the carriage arrived at the Mercenary Guild, Tian Xue was waiting for them at the entrance.

She had a surprised look since she clearly didn't expect them to be back this early, but she also had a smile on her face as she asked, "Did it go well?"

However, Tian Tian didn't have a good look on her face as she said, "We need to talk."

Tian Xue could tell that the situation wasn't good based on the look on Tian Tian's face, so she nodded and dismissed the other mercenaries. She was about to head off with just Tian Tian, but Tian Tian turned back and waved for Lin Fan to follow them.

Tian Xue was once again surprised, but she didn't say anything since she knew that Tian Tian had her reasons for doing this. She knew her little sister best, she wouldn't do things unless she had a reason for it.

So Tian Xue just gave a nod and led Tian Tian and Lin Fan to the second floor.

After giving orders to the staff to let no one disturb them, she sat down and looked at them before saying, "So, tell me what happened."

Tian Tian gave a sigh before saying, "It's a complete mess."

Tian Xue deeply knitted her brows, but she didn't say anything as she waited for Tian Tian to explain.

Tian Tian gave a general description of what happened from the first to second floor. During this time, Tian Xue couldn't help looking at Lin Fan from time to time with a look of admiration.

When they had agreed to send Lin Fan, they had only thought that he would be able to help them by leading the way, but they never expected that he would be able to do this much for them.

It seemed that both she and Tian Tian had completely underestimated Lin Fan.

But still, it was a good thing that they had chosen to ask him to come along.

Then when it came to the third floor, Tian Tian mentioned how they were ambushed by two people in the final room.

Tian Xue knitted her brows once again as she looked at Lin Fan.

Tian Tian also stopped telling her story as she looked at Lin Fan as well.

Lin Fan hadn't told her anything about what had happened, he just told her that he had defeated the two of them.

While she wasn't sure how strong they were, she could tell that they wouldn't be weak enough that he would be able to defeat them himself. That was unless he had some kind of special…

Lin Fan ignored the suspicious gazes that they had and pulled out a piece of paper that he placed on the table in front of him.

Both Tian Tian and Tian Xue were surprised by this, especially Tian Tian since Lin Fan never mentioned this before.

Lin Fan didn't explain himself and just gestured to the piece of paper, letting them take a look at its contents.

The words written on the paper weren't long, but as soon as Tian Tian and Tian Xue saw what was written, they couldn't help being shocked. However, after she finished reading it, Tian Xue suddenly said in a voice filled with rage, "Those sons of b*tches! They dare go against our agreement!"

Lin Fan couldn't help being caught off guard by the aura that Tian Xue released when she started swearing in rage.

Seeing that she was distracted, he couldn't help peeking at her with his Appraisal Eyes.

The reason why he hadn't done so before was because he was afraid of being caught using them. After all, he didn't know what kind of traces the Appraisal Eyes left, but he was certain that those with higher levels of cultivation than him would be able to notice him using them.

The moment that he saw Tian Xue's information through the Appraisal Eyes, Lin Fan couldn't help being shocked.

He even had to secretly pinch himself to see if it was a dream.

Foundation Realm!

Tian Xue was actually a Foundation Realm cultivator!

As soon as he realized this, he immediately stopped peeking at her out of fear that she would discover him.

The Appraisal Eyes were one of his greatest trump cards and it would be detrimental to him if they were revealed.

But Tian Xue didn't notice him peeking at her at all because she was completely lost in her rage.

As for why she was raging, that was all because of the people that had attacked Lin Fan and Tian Tian, or rather the people behind them. Specifically, the Qian Family.

The Mercenary Guild had already contacted the Qian Family as soon as Lin Fan agreed to their request. The Qian Family had even confirmed that they would drop this grudge and would not pursue it any longer.

But the fact that they had sent someone to kill Lin Fan even after this was clear that they didn't respect the Mercenary Guild. This was no different from a slap to the Mercenary Guild's face, no different from a slap to her face.

She was the one who had sent the message to the Qian Family after all and it had been signed with her name.

Since the Qian Family didn't show her Mercenary Guild any respect, there was no need for her to show the Qian Family any respect.

Tian Xue was already plotting on how to take care of the Qian Family.

But then Tian Tian dropped another piece of news that completely shocked her.

After hearing it, Tian Xue couldn't help asking in a stuttering voice, "Are you sure about this? The ruins really collapsed?!"

Tian Tian gave a nod, but then she couldn't help looking at Lin Fan.

Tian Xue didn't miss this and also turned to look in Lin Fan's direction, as if she was waiting for a response from him.

But Lin Fan just sat there with a calm look, as if he didn't know a thing.

Since that was the case, it wasn't as if Tian Xue could do anything, so she just gave a sigh and said, "We'll send people to dig it up and see if we can find anything. Beyond that, there's nothing else that we can do."

Tian Tian had a complicated look as well, but she didn't say anything else.

After that was decided, they let Lin Fan leave.

Once he was gone, Tian Xue couldn't help knitting her brows and saying, "He knows something more than he's telling us…We shouldn't have let him go that easily."

Tian Tian shook her head and said, "It's fine, we owe him this much."

Tian Xue revealed a confused look as she asked, "What do you mean?"

Tian Tian had a complicated look on her face before telling Tian Xue what had happened in the ruins, the part that she had left out. The part about her near death experience.

After Tian Xue finished listening, the first thing that she did was reveal a look of rage once again as she shouted, "Those b*stards, who do they think they are! They actually did such a thing to my little sister!"

The next thing she did was quickly come over to Tian Tian and started checking her body, making sure that she was fine.

But after finding that there wasn't a single thing wrong with her, she couldn't help asking in a doubtful voice, "Are you sure that what you said happened? Why can't I see any traces at all?"

Tian Tian gave a sigh and said, "That's why it's fine to let him go. He has his secrets and it's best if we don't push him too far."

Tian Xue was surprised, but then she revealed a serious look and asked, "Are you saying that he's really worth that much?"

Tian Tian hesitated for a second before saying, "At the very least, based on the abilities that he's shown, he's not someone that we can underestimate." Then she revealed a faint smile and said, "I have to at least pay him back for saving my life, right?"

Tian Xue was also silent for a second before suddenly revealing a smile and asking, "Oh, are you saying that someone has finally moved your stone heart?"

Tian Tian's face turned red when she heard this, but she didn't deny it.

Tian Xue was caught off guard since she had only been teasing her at first, but she never expected her to actually confirm this.

But then Tian Xue revealed an even happier smile and said, "I never thought that I'd see the day my picky little sister would find someone." However, she then thought of something and asked, "Wait, isn't he with little sister Lala?"

She couldn't help revealing a shocked look as she looked at Tian Tian and said, "You're actually alright with sharing a man?"

Tian Tian just said with a faint smile, "That just shows how excellent of a man he is…Are you interested as well?"

Tian Xue was completely caught off guard when she heard this, but then she said with a soft snort, "I'm not that easy. He has to be a very outstanding man if he wants to get me as well."

Tian Tian had the same faint smile as she said, "Well, I believe that he's that excellent. That's why I didn't bother with this matter."

Tian Xue fell silent for a few seconds before saying with another soft snort, "We'll see."
