Chapter 1005: Chapter 299: Enfeoffment and Mandate Decree Chapter 1005: Chapter 299: Enfeoffment and Mandate Decree If it had been Ji Fu from a few years ago, he would have flown into a rage upon hearing of an ally’s betrayal, but now, as the news was relayed by a spy, his expression did not change in the slightest; only his deep eyes revealed a trace of an unusual emotion.
The Ji Clan of Beimang had a cooperative relationship with the Ancient Blood Tower. To some degree, their fates were intertwined, as the client who ordered the assassination of the An Clan’s Heavenly Patrol Envoy was none other than the Ji Clan of Beimang.
The reason they acted so brazenly was that the targeted party had already uncovered the root of the He Clan, and upon seeking help from the Ji Clan, they had no choice but to strike first.
The assassination went smoothly, and with the compensation received, the Blood Tower again went into hiding. Had Gu Han not been pursued relentlessly by An Yuanxi, leaving him no escape in the heavens or on earth, he would not have fled to Beimang.
It was assumed that after sending away the Corpse Monk, it would be possible to lead An Yuanxi away, but unexpectedly, Gu Han returned, and he brought the Bone Taoist with him.
This was the first joint operation for the two of them since the assassination of the An Clan’s Heavenly Patrol Envoy. There must have been substantial interests at play; otherwise, they wouldn’t have betrayed their principles for profit and intercepted the Ji Clan’s intelligence.
