Chapter 996 Setting things up



There was only silence that hung in the air while they waited from their hiding spot for the outer sect disciples of the Kunlun Sect to appear.

Though the longer that they waited, the more that Ye Qing Huan started to worry again.

After all, they weren’t certain that this was the right place.

If this wasn’t the right place and if the other side was waiting for them in a different place, it would only be a matter of time before the other side realized that they weren’t who they said they were.

Once they realized that their spies had been caught, there was no doubt that they would try to clean up all traces of evidence that they were involved in this matter. That meant that they would release the embryo that they had hidden under the capital to do as much damage as it could while they ran away.

But before Ye Qing Huan could completely lose her patience…she suddenly turned in a specific direction.

The moment that she did, Lin Fan turned to look at her instead of looking in the same direction.

He knew that there was nothing he could do by looking in the same direction as her, so he just waited for her to tell him what it was that caught her attention.

Ye Qing Huan didn’t say anything as she just continued looking in that same direction for a bit. While looking in that direction, there were small changes that happened with her expression as if she was reacting to something.

Eventually, she turned to Lin Fan to say, “They’re here.”

Lin Fan gave a simple nod since he had already expected this to be the case.

He had noticed that she had been waving her finger around as if she was controlling something, so he guessed that one of the wraiths most likely found the outer sect disciples of the Kunlun Sect and had been following them.

In that case, she was most likely even watching them right now.

So Lin Fan took out the cloaks that they had gotten from the spies that they caught previously and prepared to go down to meet the outer sect disciples of the Kunlun Sect.

But before he could go down, Ye Qing Huan suddenly reached out to grab his hand to say, “Be careful. If anything goes wrong, give me the signal and I’ll pull you out of there.”

It wasn’t that she didn’t trust Lin Fan that she said this, it was just that she was sincerely worried about him.

She didn’t want anything to happen to him, so she said this even if she was confident that he knew what to do.

Lin Fan gave a firm nod in response without saying anything before heading down.

This time, Ye Qing Huan didn’t stop him.

With her level of cultivation and her backing, it was easy for her to find a way to communicate with him even without being near. She could easily tell him exactly what he needed to do even while hiding on the side.

So that was how Lin Fan knew when they approached.

The moment that the outer sect disciples of the Kunlun Sect came near, Lin Fan turned around to look at them.

They were surprised to see that Lin Fan noticed them, but then they were surprised by something else.

“Why is it just you alone?” The leader of the Kunlun Sect group asked this question in an accusatory voice.

As soon as he asked this, the others also got into a defensive position as if they were prepared to fight their way out if something happened.

But Lin Fan didn’t panic when he heard this.

He just calmly looked at the Kunlun Sect group and said, “Things have changed in this place recently, so we have to be careful. Our superiors have been giving us more orders, so everyone else had to pitch in to make it seem like we’re still doing our jobs properly. If we don’t, we’ll all be exposed.”

The leader of the Kunlun Sect group knitted his brows when he heard this before asking, “Then earlier when I tried contacting you…?”

“We had no other choice.” Lin Fan said with a sigh before saying in a more serious voice, “How much longer will this take? If you don’t do anything soon, then it’s clear that we’ll be caught. It’s no coincidence that they’re giving us more missions at a time like this. It’s clear that they’re suspecting us already.”

The Kunlun Sect group all knitted their brows when they heard this, but they didn’t say anything. It didn’t seem like any of them were doubting what Lin Fan said, but it did seem like they were weighing their options.

It was clear that there was a part of them that were even wondering if they should just abandon all of this…

But in the end, it didn’t seem like they were willing to abandon this plan after coming this far. It seemed like they wanted to see this matter through to the end or else they would regret everything that happened so far.

So the leader of the Kunlun Sect group said, “Soon, it’ll happen soon. Once it does, you should know that there won’t be a lack of benefits for you and your comrades. As the ones that made this happen, the greatest merit will lie with you.”

Though he said this, it was clear that no one believed him.

Of course, he was just an outer disciple of the Kunlun Sect, so his words really held no weight.

But Lin Fan didn’t care since he wasn’t the spy in the first place. He didn’t care about what benefits he would get from this plan working out, he just cared about setting them up for their plan.

So Lin Fan said, “Fine, tell me what you want from me then.”

The leader of the Kunlun Sect group gave a nod before saying, “The collection rate has been too low, so the plan isn’t ready yet. Unless the collection rate increases, there’s no way to rush this plan.”

The way that he said this was as if he was full of regret, but it was clear what he was actually implying.

Lin Fan slightly knitted his brows when he heard this, but it was a good thing that he had his cloak on that hid his expression or else he would have been seen.

He wasn’t a fool and could immediately understand what the leader of the Kunlun Sect group was asking for. However, it wasn’t as if he could just give them this since it was something that involved the lives of the innocent people of the capital.

Even if he wanted to trap those from the Kunlun Sect, he wasn’t willing to do something like that.

So while Lin Fan was thinking about a way to reject them, he was surprised to hear Ye Qing Huan’s voice ring out in his ears. And he was even more surprised by what she was telling him to say.

He didn’t have a way to respond, but he really wanted to ask if she was sure.

However, after thinking about it, he decided to just go along with what Ye Qing Huan was saying.

If Ye Qing Huan was telling him to say something like this, he was certain that she would have her own thoughts. In that case, all he had to do was follow what she said.

The way that she said this already confirmed that she wasn’t just acting on emotions.

“I can think of a way, but I’ll need something from you as well.” Lin Fan said in a calm and cold voice that had no ripples in it.

The leader of the Kunlun Sect group couldn’t help knitting his brows when he heard this before saying, “This is for the sake of the plan which benefits both of us. You should be aware of what happens if this plan fails, so we all have to do our part.”

With a snort, Lin Fan said, “You can say that, but you know what the truth is.” Then in a more serious voice, he said, “If you want me to go along with your plan, you better play by my terms or else.”

The expressions of the Kunlun Sect group turned ugly when they heard this.

Though it looked like they wanted to reject what Lin Fan said, the truth of the matter was that they really couldn’t.

Even if they didn’t want to, they knew that they had no choice in the matter since this person in front of them knew more about this place and the Ye Family than them. If they really wanted this plan to work, they had no choice but to work with them.

Even if they looked down on them for being a filthy spy.

“What do you want then?” The leader of the Kunlun Sect group asked with an unhappy look on his face.

“It’s very simple, I can get you things that will help you feed the embryo that you’ve hidden. All I need is a distraction from you to keep the Ye Family busy so that they won’t notice what I’m doing.” Lin Fan repeated what Ye Qing Huan told him even though he didn’t know what her plan was.

“What kind of distraction?” The leader of the Kunlun Sect group asked in a heavy voice.

“It’s very simple, all you have to do is…”

“Are you crazy?”

Lin Fan didn’t say anything in response to this as he waited for the leader of the Kunlun Sect group to agree.
