Chapter 1009: Chapter 1008: Undercurrents Surging
"So you’re here. Young Master Zhan has been waiting for you over there for a long time." Beisitian walked up, smiling at Gu Haiqing.
Gu Haiqing nodded and followed Beisitian.
Nie Kaihuan watched their backs as they left, but still couldn’t remember who Gu Haiqing was. He slightly lowered his eyes and turned to walk up the steps.
"What’s wrong?" the elegant man asked.
Nie Kaihuan shook his head, "Nothing."
Then they left together with the organizers.
Gu Haiqing had broken out in a cold sweat earlier, not because he was afraid of that kid Nie Kaihuan, but because he feared Old Turtle Nie!
That guy is ruthless. If he knew his identity, he would know he came to retrieve something from them. Given Old Turtle Nie’s vicious nature, he would definitely find a chance to kill him.
Thinking of this, he looked at Beisitian and said, "Thank you!"
Beisitian smiled faintly, saying nothing, and turned to leave, but was called back by Gu Haiqing.
"Is there anything else?" Beisitian turned back and asked.
Gu Haiqing pursed his lips for a while and said, "I don’t know how much Chu Bailing told you. But if he said I’m scum, don’t believe him, because he is the real scum!"
Zhan Hongjun on the side: "..." Brother, are you a child? Is this the point...
Gu Haiqing realized he seemed a bit childish and coughed lightly twice before saying, "Any clues about what I discussed with Doctor Bei last time?"
"No," Beisitian replied straightforwardly.
To be honest, even if there were, she would still say no. Why should she tell him?
Hearing this, Gu Haiqing was somewhat disappointed and sighed, "It’s really a hard road ahead..."
Beisitian ignored his self-talk and turned to leave.
Zhan Hongjun was anxious watching, "Why did you let her leave?"
Gu Haiqing watched her unique back and said, "What can I do? Moreover, what good is it to stop her?"
Even if she’s a member of the Bei Family, she’s now just a Bei Family member who knows nothing, perhaps even less than he does. How could such a person help their families through difficult times?
Gu Haiqing felt confused. Sometimes he thought, why haven’t the elders from the Cloud Sea Sect and the Tianyao Sect come down yet, even though Old Turtle Nie has already started moving around?
His strength alone is very limited. Even if he found local government officials after coming down the mountain, with this relationship, the future remains very uncertain.
"However, why do you think the Patriarch of Qingyu came here?" Zhan Hongjun suddenly thought aloud.
Gu Haiqing slightly tilted his head towards the direction where Old Turtle Nie had left, "Could it be for him?"
Whether it is or not, he doesn’t know. The current major families and major sects might have sensed something wrong because many experts suddenly enter the present world. Even the most sluggish families should sense something.
Beisitian’s gaze turned to the elegant man, Nie Yunsheng. No one knows where he came from, only that once he appeared, he quickly took over a lot of the market.
For example, in the real estate industry, Jiang City originally had multiple real estate big shots. After he came, he quickly consolidated them, and within half a year, Jiang City had only his company dominating.
Moreover, Beisitian knows he is a Mystic Doctor, which is the most crucial point.
This person named Nie Yunsheng is likely one of the Giant Crocodile Family, which means he is a part of those ancient clan sect lineages.
What she hears about the ancient clan families are from the mouths of these parties involved, but she can’t differentiate what’s true and what’s false, fearing much of it is mixed with personal feelings.
And with little knowledge of those secrets, she can’t confirm their authenticity either.
She is not willing to get involved in the feuds and grudges of these ancient families, but Jiang Mingzhong’s disappearance is likely related to these people.
There’s still no concrete news on Jiang Mingzhong’s current situation. To say she is not worried would be a lie. This elderly man has experienced significant ups and downs throughout his life. His spirit drained, he fell from grace, was laughed at and looked down upon, abandoned by his son in his later years, and almost drowned himself. It was Beisitian who finally ended his suffering.
Although the pain of being abandoned by his son can’t just disappear, at least he found some comfort and managed to live a somewhat better life in his later years. Now that he has disappeared, how can Beisitian just let it go?
Jiang Mingzhong has long since become a part of Qingyu.
What also worried Beisitian was Desan. Given Desan’s carefree and heartless demeanor, he wouldn’t leave without notice unless something very important had happened.
She kept thinking that Desan must be someone with a story, and whether his departure might relate to his past?
Thinking about this, she can’t help but sigh. One by one, they really don’t give one any peace of mind.
Their disappearance coincides too perfectly with the emergence of these ancient sects, forcing Beisitian to think deeply, especially since Gu Haiqing mentioned the issue of polluted water being related to the ancient sects, making her even more determined to investigate thoroughly.
No matter how powerful the entity, if they threaten her child, she will fight to the end with them!
Currently, all matters are likely related to the sudden emergence of the ancient sects. Why have they appeared, after hiding for so many years, and what exactly are their goals? No one knows.
To find out, she needs to delve into their inner circles.
Regarding the matter of ancient sects, Beisitian has already passed the information on to a few major families and large sects. They can’t be completely unprepared. Otherwise, a single Qingyu could hardly resist such a tide.
This is assuming the other side has malicious intentions.
Getting deeply involved seems far-fetched. She didn’t plan to join any sect, but it may be worth getting to know them.
Nie Yunsheng seems to have started engaging in the medicinal cuisine business recently and even hinted at an interest in collaborating with Heavenly Blessing. She thought this might be a starting point for observation.
However, after meeting Nie Yunsheng personally, Beisitian changed her mind. Her gaze at Nie Yunsheng was full of contemplation.
This is a true Great Power!
Someone no less than him, no less than Desan and Elder Qiao in power!
Someone like him, is he really interested in doing business?
Not only him, even the young man beside him is a Mystic Doctor with a very full spirit. Judging by the fullness of his spirit, his overall strength might even surpass Wei Zhongyuan!
To have such abilities at sixteen is quite terrifying.
Is this the depth of heritage for the ancient families?!
Beisitian’s evaluation of these ancient family sects rose another level.
At the wine tasting, a hidden undercurrent flowed, while at the Hao Family, the sky was already bright. Two sleepless kids stared at the oil paper bag with eyes sparkling. What on earth could be inside?
