Chapter 1338: Trouble (2)

Shen Yanxiao was surprised that Duan Xue had met Wen Ya. No wonder Duan Xue was willing to help.

Just as Shen Yanxiao was preparing to continue discussing with Duan Xue about their excursion to Moons.h.i.+ne City, An Ran suddenly pushed open Shen Yanxiao’s door with signs of anxiousness in his eyes.

“Yan Xiao.”

“What’s wrong?” Shen Yanxiao looked at An Ran who broke in.

“The people from the Qingyuan Tribe are here.” An Ran frowned.

“Qingyuan Tribe?” For a moment, Shen Yanxiao could not recall which tribe it was.

An Ran said, “Shui Ling is from the Qingyuan Tribe. I don’t know where they got the news that you are here, but they have come to find us. Maybe it’s because of Shui Ling’s death, but the leader asked me to take you away through the back door.” The Qingyuan Tribe and the Moons.h.i.+ne Tribe had been at odds for a long time. After the Moons.h.i.+ne Tribe was demoted and banished to Jadeite City, the elves from the Qingyuan Tribe had caused them no lack of trouble.

“Why should I leave?” Shen Yanxiao raised her eyebrows. It had been a long time since Shui Ling’s incident, and she honestly did not expect there to be a continuation of this matter.

An Ran anxiously said, “Shui Ling’s brother, Shui Miao, is an elf who was selected to join the Silvermoon Guards a few years back. Today, he brought the elves from the Qingyuan Tribe here. Shui Ling and Shui Miao have a good relations.h.i.+p. It will not be a good thing for Shui Miao to come and find you. It will be better for you to avoid him for the time being.”

“Who is that Shui Ling? Why is his death related to Xiaoxiao?” Shen Jing frowned. Shen Yanxiao had just come to the Moon G.o.d Continent not long ago and she had just come out from the advanced training camp. How did she get involved in a murder case?

Shen Yanxiao explained, “An elf who entered the training camp at the same time as me. I found him an eyesore so I sparred with him. How would I know that he pa.s.sed away in a daze?” Because of An Ran and Duan Xue, Shen Yanxiao could not reveal the matter of pollution and could only answer casually.

“…” Shen Jing’s expression was complex. He had yet to fully adapt to Shen Yanxiao’s change.

“It’s not like that. Yan Xiao only got into a conflict with Shui Ling because of me…” An Ran immediately said. If not for him, Shen Yanxiao would not have gotten into a conflict with Shui Ling.

That incident had always made An Ran feel guilty.

“In any case, I don’t like him.” Shen Yanxiao did not blame An Ran in the slightest. Instead, she was afraid that he would blame himself, so she insisted that she disliked Shui Ling.

Shen Jing was smart enough to guess the truth.

“Is the Qingyuan Tribe a very high-ranked tribe?” Shen Jing was more concerned about the weight of this problem.

An Ran nodded.

“Before the Moons.h.i.+ne Tribe was demoted, our two tribes were on the same level.”

If the Moons.h.i.+ne Tribe was still the former Moons.h.i.+ne Tribe, it would not be a problem even if An Yan were to forcefully protect Shen Yanxiao. However, after they were demoted, the Moons.h.i.+ne Tribe’s rank was far inferior to the Qingyuan Tribe. In the face of these problems, they had many restrictions. Even if An Yan wanted to protect Shen Yanxiao, she could only do it secretly. A tribe from a white-level city could not compete with a tribe from a black-level city.

“Tsk tsk, was that Shui Ling really killed by Xiaoxiao?” Shen Jing touched his chin. He did not mind that Shen Yanxiao’s hands were stained with blood. He was only considering if there was a more peaceful solution to this problem.

“Would Shui Miao believe me if I said no? The generals of the advanced training camp have already announced that I had nothing to do with this, but they still came. Regardless of the real reason, they have already determined that I was the culprit.” Shen Yanxiao sneered.
