Chapter 574: Chapter 489: Getting What One Wishes For
“I assure that this will not impact Fellow Daoist in any way.”
“After discussing this matter with them, I will definitely not divulge Fellow Daoist’s name.”
“Based on the character of the two friends I am well acquainted with, if I approach them in such a manner, they will certainly not leak a thing.”
“Even if they were to have their souls searched, Fellow Daoist need not worry about his identity being exposed.”
“Thus, I kindly request Fellow Daoist’s approval.”
After receiving Master Luo Jing’s clarification, He Song respectfully sought advice from Master Luo Jing.
He had not made decisions rashly, instead, he tried his best to consider Master Luo Jing’s interests, intending to minimize the impacts of the situation.
This matter, essentially, started because of He Song.
If it had not been for He Song, Master Luo Jing wouldn’t have revealed this information.
She had met Meng Guan and Wei Fan a few times before, but their exchanges were strict transactions, devoid of any acquaintance.
If not for He Song, such news would never have been revealed from her mouth.
And Master Luo Jing was a member of the Treasure Pavilion.
If the news were leaked, the message that came out of her mouth would spread, and she might be punished by the Treasure Pavilion.
In order to avoid such a situation, He Song naturally needed to be thoughtful for her.
After all, Master Luo Jing decided to reveal this out of respect for her own face.
If she were to be punished because of this matter, He Song would likely carry some blame.
For the sake of his two friends, He Song could not allow Master Luo Jing to suffer losses for no reason.
Of course, he also considered whether telling Meng Guan and Wei Fan about this would have any impact on Master Luo Jing.
Presently, He Song has said so.
It was a plan he carefully thought over before proposing.
According to He Song, he would indeed reveal this to Meng Guan and Wei Fan, allowing them to flee as soon as they encounter, or are about to encounter Tian Jue True Monarch.
However, regarding the source of this news, He Song would not say it came from Master Luo Jing’s mouth.
Instead, he would concoct another source of information to obscure the issue.
At the same time, he would warn Meng Guan and Wei Fan to never spread this news.
This way, the confidentiality of this message would naturally be safeguarded.
Even if Meng Guan and Wei Fan were later subjected to soul-seeking techniques, it wouldn’t lead back to Master Luo Jing.
At most, it could only trace back to He Song.
Considering He Song’s caution, this clue would naturally be cut off at him.
Therefore, it is impossible for this plan to involve Master Luo Jing and drag her down too.
In this tightly linked chain, it naturally guarantees Master Luo Jing’s safety.
This is the best solution He Song could come up with that will inform Meng Guan and Wei Fan without entangling Master Luo Jing
When faced with He Song’s honesty.
Master Luo Jing quickly understood He Song’s intentions after some consideration.
Realizing that He Song would rather take the risk himself and not get her involved, Master Luo Jing was very satisfied with the way He Song handled things.
As a Golden Elixir Master of the Treasure Pavilion, every action taken by Master Luo Jing has the Treasure Pavilion’s interests in mind.
If at all this matter went wrong, she would definitely face punishment.
Although she, being a Golden Elixir Master, is not weak and wouldn’t be severely injured if punished, it would still require paying some price.
But, when she can cultivate in peace, who in their right mind would willingly face punishment and harm themselves for no reason?
She brought all of this up to He Song because He Song personally came to ask about this matter.
If it weren’t for He Song, she would be similarly worried in her heart, but she would never have disclosed these things to others, hence not create any impact on her.
But He Song,
upon learning about all this, his first thought wasn’t to inform his two friends, but to cover up for her instead.
Such actions truly touched Master Luo Jing.
Therefore, upon seeing He Song at this time, the expression of Master Luo Jing’s face also slightly changed.
“Fellow Daoist is overly worried. Although this matter has some influence on me, it doesn’t reach a terribly serious degree.”
“However, since Fellow Daoist is so considerate of me, it’d be rude to excessively decline.”
“Let’s do as Fellow Daoist says and handle it this way.”
“Do inform your two friends about this as quickly as possible, so they can optimize good luck and avoid misfortune in the upcoming battles.”
“In case they encounter Tian Jue True Monarch in the future, they can hasten their escape and avoid being turned into souls under Tian Jue True Monarch.”
After nodding her head, Master Luo Jing quickly agreed and asked He Song, in accordance with what was said earlier, to notify Meng Guan and Wei Fan.
But, after agreeing, Master Luo Jing felt a sigh of relief.
The situation was not as severe as she described it to be.
What she said was just out of modesty.
On the contrary, if this matter were indeed linked to her, even with her status as a Golden Elixir Master, she might have to pay a certain price to settle it.
Although the price is not particularly big, she had actually prepared to pay it in advance.
However, she did not expect that upon learning about the matter from her, He Song would consider her welfare.
This indeed surprised Master Luo Jing, but also moved her.
The initial preparation for paying the price was actually just to win over He Song.
But now that He Song had spoken, she certainly would not be eagerly hurting her own interest.
