Chapter 2222 Video tape Third Elder looked at Ye Wanwan with a somewhat embarrassed expression. “It’s actually like this, President… What the President means isn’t important; what’s important is that the President is wise and gallant and thoughtful and meticulous…” Ye Wanwan sighed. This was still truly the Fearless Alliance. Nothing had changed despite the transfer to the Rose of Death. “How long will it be until the Direct Line and the Collateral Branch start fighting?” Ye Wanwan asked First Elder a moment later. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚 “In the next few days probably. These past two days, the Direct Line and the Collateral Branch have been testing each other’s waters and had several skirmishes already,” First Elder replied. Ye Wanwan nodded. The Independent State’s peaceful days were completely over… However, strictly speaking, the Independent State had never been peaceful. “President, what are our plans?” First Elder inquired. Thid Elder glanced at First Elder. “Keep wasting time. Lord Asura is a member of the Collateral Branch, so of course we have to support the Collateral Branch. What other plans could we have?” “Then the President is intending to support the Collateral Branch under the Rose of Death’s name?” First Elder asked. Ye Wanwan nodded. That was indeed her plan. Before Ye Wanwan could act though, the Nie family suddenly announced their support for the Collateral Branch in their war with the Direct Line. Following the Nie family’s announcement, the Ji family also announced their support for the Collateral Branch. Amongst the four great clans, only the Shen family and the Ling family hadn’t acted yet. It wasn’t hard to understand the Shen family’s silence though. In the Independent State, the Shen family were mainly businessmen, so they didn’t wish to get entangled in this war between the Direct Line and the Collateral Branch. If they rashly expressed their support, they’d not only have to provide a large sum of money but would also be greatly impacted if the side they supported was defeated. As for the Ling family, Ye Wanwan knew little about them. The Ling family did originally intend to support the Collateral Branch, but now that Patriarch and Madam Nie had returned and announced their support for the Collateral Branch, the Ling family didn’t seem to want to be in the same camp as the Nie family due to their previous conflicts. However, two days later, the Shen family and the Ling family both announced their support for the Collateral Branch at the same time. Three days later: “Sis Feng, there’s someone here from the Martial Arts Union… They say their president is inviting you to meet at their headquarters,” Big Dipper reported to Ye Wanwan. Ye Wanwan wrinkled her brows. Si Xia hadn’t appeared since his escape from the remote island. She didn’t expect him to invite her to visit the Martial Arts Union today. “Sis Feng, you aren’t really planning to go, right?” Big Dipper looked at Ye Wanwan. “I bet the Martial Arts Union is up to no good, seeking you out at a time like this!” “Of course I won’t go.” Ye Wanwan snorted. “Tell their president if he wants to see me, then he has to come here personally.” “Okay!” Big Dipper nodded and left. … Half a day later, Big Dipper entered the office with a videotape in hand. “Sis Feng, this was sent here by the Martial Arts Union. They said there’s something you’re interested in on the tape and told you to take a look.” Big Dipper placed the videotape on the desk. Ye Wanwan was startled by Big Dipper’s words. A videotape sent by the Martial Arts Union? “Alright, got it.” Ye Wanwan nodded. After Big Dipper left the office, Ye Wanwan picked up the videotape and carefully examined it. Based on its appearance, this seemed to be a normal videotape without anything special to it.
