Chapter 322: Showing Tenderness to Girls?

“They are digging their own graves,” scoffed the man who was watching Feng Tianlan and her friends from a distance . “Watch their movements at all times, then execute the plan . I want them lost and dead . They must never set foot outside the Misty Forest again . ”

Tu Xiupei’s gaze landed in Feng Tianlan’s direction . Her beautiful eyes lowered sinisterly as she imagined the tragedy that was about to play out . This tragedy would not only kill not Feng Tianlan but also many other innocent people .

“Don’t worry, Pei’er . Soon, the Misty Forest will be their grave . Nobody will guess that the assassination was our doing . No one will suspect us . This time around,” Qi Shujie wrapped his arms around Tu Xiupei and whispered, “they will be gone for good . ”

He decided not to tell her about the other mission . He had deliberately left out some of the details of the massacre to protect Tu Xiupei’s innocence . Seeing how soft-hearted Tu Xiupei was, Qi Shujie feared that she wouldn’t be able to handle what he had in store for his enemies .

Feng Tianlan continued walking ahead of the pack while Azurite picked up the rare and expensive herbs that they passed by .

Lin Suyin saw Azurite dig out a distinctly silver plant with wilted leaves . She couldn’t help but ask, “Sister Feng, if my eyes do not fool me, your teammate has just dug up Moon Fairy Grass . It is a rare herb that takes centuries to mature . It is also a basic ingredient in many pills . ”

How could a mere girl of Feng Tianlan’s age possibly be so well-versed in rare herbs? She wouldn’t have been taught such things at her institution, nor was this knowledge available anywhere else . Azurite intrigued her .

“Oh, really?” Feng Tianlan replied, indifferent toward Lin Suyin’s comment .

Then, they sank into an awkward silence . Lin Suyin was surprised at how unfriendly Feng Tianlan was . As fellow ladies from some of South Peace City’s most prominent families, it was best to remain friendly and build common ties . However, Feng Tianlan did not seem interested in any form of networking with her fellow socialites .

Was Feng Tianlan just looking down on her? Was it because of the Wargod?

Lin Suyin frowned as she observed Feng Tianlan . If her face was not scarred, she would definitely be one of the very few women alive who possessed such unearthly beauty . She was stunning at first sight, and all the more striking after a second look . The more one looked at her, the more one found her beautiful .

Even with her scarred face (once she’d gotten used to it), Feng Tianlan seemed to Lin Suyin to exude the demeanor of a king . Sadly, it was a quality that neither a man nor a woman could truly appreciate .

“Sister Lin, I figured that it’s just a lucky shot . How can a century-old herb be so easy to find?”

Lin Suyin glanced at her briefly and said, “I beg to differ . I can tell that she knows her herbs . ”

She believed that, as long as they stayed together, they would find the spiritual grass in no time .

Luo Yunzhu picked a flower from the roadside and tucked it in her hair . Luo Yunzhu smiled warmly and said, “Miss Lin, please don’t use fall out with us . It is okay if you came here with sincere intentions . But if you have any ulterior motives, please refer to the predicament of the Tu sisters . That’s a preview of what will happen to you . ”

While Lin Suyin appeared to be a nice girl, Luo Yunzhu could not shake the feeling that, somehow, she was a hypocrite .

Lin Suyin felt that the flower in her hair now weighed as much as lead . It was pressing on her skull and giving her a headache . All she could think of was how unwelcome she was in the group, and she couldn’t figure out why . Surely, she had not done anything to upset them?

The group spread out a little, and Zhang Tiancheng whispered to Luo Yunzhu, “You seem to be pitting yourself against Lin Suyin a whole lot . She did nothing wrong, you know . ”

“What? Showing tenderness to girls now, eh?”

“I wouldn’t dare! I’m just confused . Besides, all I’m saying is that Miss Lin seems quite nice, doesn’t she? She wasn’t even mad after all the hostility you’ve been showing her . Also, isn’t she always singing Boss’ praises?” Instead of pity, Zhang Tiancheng felt more puzzled than anything else .
