Fang Yan, who had received the news, was preparing to head to the Adventurer's Guild.
Unexpectedly, just as he reached the door, he saw people from the Adventurer's Guild walking towards him.
The person walking in front was an unfamiliar middle-aged man.
In Fang Yan's divine sense, this man's aura was distant and vast. He was actually a powerful Supreme Realm expert.
Behind the middle-aged man were two Adventurer Guild staff members who had interacted with Fang Yan before.
Upon seeing Fang Yan, a staff member whispered a few words to the middle-aged man before greeting Fang Yan from a few steps away.
"Grandmaster Fang, are you going out?”
"I'm going to your guild." Fang Yan smiled.”
"Did you hear some news?" The staff member smiled. What a coincidence. We're here to tell you good news.”
"Is it about the mission?" Fang Yan asked solemnly.”
"Yes." The staff member nodded and raised his hand to introduce,"This is one of the nine permanent directors of our Association of Adventurers, Director Wang Wenchang. Next, Director Wang will introduce you to the latest progress of the mission.”
After the staff introduced him, Wang Wenchang reached out his hand to Fang Yan and said with a smile,"Grandmaster Fang Yan, nice to meet you!"
The Adventurer's Guild was formed by the top powerhouses of each city, and nine permanent directors were elected through voting.
These nine permanent members were definitely the highest ranking people in the entire Eastern Continent.
Fang Yan had never expected that a permanent director would visit her because of a mission she had issued.
He also extended his hand and shook Wang Wenchang's hand. Then, he said politely,"Director Wang, thank you for coming. Please come inside for a chat.”
Wang Wenchang nodded.”
……
When they reached the living room, everyone sat down.
Wang Wenchang didn't tell him the progress of the mission. Instead, he did a self-reflection.
"I came here to inspect the work of the branches. When I arrived at your place, I heard that someone was offering a reward with a high-grade moon artifact. I couldn't resist the temptation and used my position to investigate this matter privately.”
Under normal circumstances, the staff of the Adventurer's Guild would definitely not accept missions rashly.
Otherwise, if they saw a good mission, they would intercept it and complete it themselves. Why would the other adventurers get any f * cking rewards?
Therefore, Wang Wenchang's actions could be considered as abusing his power.
But to Fang Yan, it didn't matter who completed the mission. As long as he found Old Liu, he would be happy even if the nine permanent directors worked together.
He smiled at Wang Wenchang." Director Wang, you're not like this. I just want to know where Old Liu is. I don't want to ask about anything else." In any case, I'm afraid that ordinary adventurers won't be able to complete this mission. You'd better tell me what's going on!”
Wang Wenchang nodded and began to explain the details of the matter.
"Your Excellency should know that our Adventurer Guild has our own way of contacting and intelligence.”
Fang Yan nodded slightly. He did not know about this, but he did not want to interrupt Wang Wenchang.
" After I heard about the mission that you issued, I started to look for relevant information. In the end, I really found out about Master Liu Dongyuan in a branch." Wang Wenchang continued.”
"Where is he?" Fang Yan asked hurriedly. Dead or alive?"
Wang Wenchang smiled and comforted him." Grandmaster Fang, don't worry. Grandmaster Liu is still alive. It's just that he doesn't have much freedom.”
Fang Yan frowned, not understanding what Wang Wenchang meant.
" I've checked the time when Master Liu went missing," Wang Wenchang explained." He's been missing for about a year." The last time he appeared was probably at Thousand Blade Peak in the Cloudfall Mountain Range. At the same time, a caravan arrived at Thousand Blades Peak in Golden Creek City, which was 600 kilometers west of Cloudfall Mountain Range.”
"That caravan was supposed to come to Heavenly Cloud City for trade, but according to my investigation, they didn't reach Heavenly Cloud City in the end. That caravan belongs to the Wu clan of Tongchuan City. I wonder if you can think of anything?”
"You mean that the caravan kidnapped Liu Dongyuan?" Fang Yan asked subconsciously. Liu Dongyuan was in the Wu Clan of Tongchuan City?”
"I'm not sure about that." Wang Wenchang shook his head and said meaningfully,""The only thing I can be sure of is that not long after that, the Wu clan of Jin Chuan City began to continuously obtain powerful equipment and used it to suppress the other forces in the same city. Before that, the Wu clan had used various methods such as coercion and bribery to subdue many blacksmiths.”
Was there a need to guess?
If Wu clan really had such a bad tradition, then it was not strange for their caravan to kidnap people!
Fang Yan's face darkened and she said angrily,""I want to investigate this matter clearly. If Liu Dongyuan was really kidnapped by the Wu family, then the Wu family must pay the price!”
Wang Wenchang reminded,"We still need to think about this matter carefully. We must not alert the enemy." We have no evidence to prove that Master Liu is in Wu clan. If Master Liu is really in Wu clan and we alarm Wu clan, the consequences will be unimaginable!”
Fang Yan immediately calmed down. Thinking about it carefully, it seemed that this matter was not that simple.
If they really alerted the enemy, Wu clan might kill the hostage.
At that time, his good intentions would really be ruined!
