Chapter 869 - A Chance (1/2)

Xiao Dong and Shao Hai sneaked onto the Chun Feng Sect's sect grounds, glancing around to make sure they wouldn't be seen while also trying to keep an eye on the disciple that was delivering the letter.

The disciple went to the dungeon, entering without a look back. He hadn't noticed the people following him. For the most part, his thoughts had still been occupied by his meeting with Nian Hong Fang. He never would have imagined that this kind of gentle person that had begged him to deliver his token of love with tears in his eyes would even consider following him. Not to mention that he couldn't believe anybody would be able to infiltrate their Chun Feng Sect.

He took a deep breath when he entered the dungeon and pushed the thoughts about Nian Hong Fang away. His steps sped up and he went over to where the Sect Master and Liu Cheng were waiting, cupping his fists and bowing.

”Shen Qiang.”

”Sect Master. I got the response.” He took out the letter and handed it over.

Xian Xun furrowed his brows. ”Why did this take so long?”

Shen Qiang lowered his head. ”I took his sweet-time writing it but I didn't dare to hurry him.”

”Mn.” The Sect Master nodded and then took out the letter, his brows furrowing even further together when he read over it. He had already taken a look at the letter that Ma Zhi Wu had written to make sure that there was nothing in there that shouldn't be in there. The demon held back in that regard but he had still insisted to include the usual lies he had probably fed the Grandelder's disciple over the years.

Naturally, the response reflected that. Reminiscing about the past, recounting a lot of things that had happened over the past five years, confessing his feelings … This letter was so emotional it might bring tears to his lover's eyes … if he was human.

Xian Xun shook his head and put the letter back. ”Well, let's give it to him to read. After that, we should continue with the interrogation.”

Liu Cheng nodded and the two of them turned to the door of the chamber where Ma Zhi Wu was still waiting.
