Chapter 1338 – Trouble (2)
Duan Xue actually used to meet Wen Ya in the past? Shen Yanxiao was slightly stunned. No wonder Duan Xue was
willing to help with this matter.
Just as Shen Yanxiao was ready to continue to discuss the matter with Duan Xue once they entered the Moonshine
City, An Ran suddenly pushed the door open with a hint of anxiety.
“Yan Xiao.”
“What’s wrong?” Shen Yanxiao looked at the An Ran who suddenly burst the door open.
“The elves of the Qingyuan Tribe came.” An Ran replied in a frown.
“Qingyuan Tribe?” Shen Yanxiao could not figure which tribe it was for a time.
An Ran said, “Shui Ling is a member of Qingyuan Tribe. I don’t know where they heard the news that you are with
us but now, they are at the door looking for you. This is probably about the death of Shui Ling. Anyway, the leader
asked me to take you out through the back door first.” The Qingyuan Tribe and the Moonshine Tribe had already
been at odds for a long time. After the Moonshine Tribe was demoted and banished to Jadeite City, the Qingyuan
Tribe elves living there did not fail to find them troubles.
“Why should I leave?” Shen Yanxiao raised her eyebrows slightly. This matter of Shui Ling was already a thing of
the past. She really did not think there would be a sequel to this.
An Ran anxiously said, “Shui Ling’s older brother, Shui Miao, was an elf who had been selected into the Silvermoon
Guards a few years ago. Today, he came with the elves of the Qingyuan Tribe. The relationship between Shui Ling
and Shui Miao has always been very good. Them coming to look for you today is definitely not a good thing, it’s
better to avoid them for the time being.”
“Who is that Shui Ling? How is his death related to Little Xiao?” Shen Jing on the side slightly frowned. Shen
Yanxiao came to the Moon God Continent not long ago, and she just came out of the advanced training camp, so
why was she suddenly involved in a murder case?
Shen Yanxiao explained, “He’s an elf that entered the training camp at the same time as me. I thought he was not
pleasing to the eyes so I asked him to compare notes with me. Who would have known that he would die from being
so muddle-headed.” Because of An Ran and Duan Xue, Shen Yanxiao could not say anything about pollution, so she
could only say random things.
“…” Shen Jing’s expression was very tangled. He still had not fully adapted to the changes of Shen Yanxiao.
“It’s not like that. Yan Xiao did it for my sake and Shui Ling…” An Ran immediately spoke up. If it wasn’t for him,
Shen Yanxiao would not have gotten into a conflict with Shui Ling.
An Ran had always felt very guilty because of that thing.
“In any case, it is true that he is not pleasing to my eyes.” Shen Yanxiao was not blaming An Ran in the slightest bit.
Rather, she feared that he would blame himself too much and thus insisted that Shui Ling was really unpleasant.
Being the smart fellow that he was, Shen Jing naturally guessed the truth of the matter
“Does the Qingyuan Tribe have a very high rank?” Shen Jing cared more about the weight of the current trouble.
An Ran nodded his head in response.
“Before, when the Moonshine Tribe had not been demoted, the ranks of our two tribes are quite equal.”
If the Moonshine Tribe were still the Moonshine Tribe of the past, An Yan would have no problem even if she were
to firmly protect Shen Yanxiao. However, after being demoted, the rank of the Moonshine Tribe was already far
from the rank of the Qingyuan Tribe. In dealing with this problem, they had a lot of restrictions. Even if An Yan
wanted to protect Shen Yanxiao, she could only do it secretly. After all, a tribe of white-level cities was incapable of
competing with a tribe of black-level cities.
“Tsk tsk. Was that Shui Ling really killed by Little Xiao?” Shen Jing stroked his chin. He did not mind if Shen
Yanxiao’s hands got stained with blood. He was only considering whether there were a calmer solution to this
matter.
“If I say no, will that Shui Miao believe it? The generals of the advanced training camp have already announced that
I have nothing to do with this thing, but they still came. No matter what the real reason is, they have already
determined that I was the one who did it.” Shen Yanxiao sneeringly said.
