Chapter 3090 Questioning_1

Guan Yue saw the situation and commanded, "Hand me the communicator!"

The other party was the president of the Blacksmith Association, after all, so they had to be treated with great respect!

Seeing this, the federation member did not dare to defy and quickly handed over the communicator...

After receiving it, Guan Yue then spoke out, "President Zhenhua, I am the hall master of the War God Hall, Guan Yue!"

Hearing this response, Zhenhua on the other end was clearly surprised...

"Hall Master Guan? I didn't expect you to contact me personally, quite a rarity indeed!"

Guan Yue let out a slight smile and spoke in as gentle a tone as possible, "President Zhenhua jests. The truth is, there is a matter I wish to inquire about!"

Listening to her tone, it seemed she had some reservations about the federation!

"A matter to inquire about? That is somewhat strange, the Blacksmith Association hasn't done anything out of the ordinary recently, has it?"

There was silence from Zhenhua for a few seconds before he spoke again...

Guan Yue pursed her lips, understanding there must have been some misunderstanding...

"Please don't misunderstand, President Zhenhua. The Blacksmith Association is certainly without issue. It's just that there's a matter I need to confirm!"

"In order to avoid affecting the relationship between the federation and the Blacksmith Association!"

Zhenhua stroked his chin, then continued, "Ah, I see. I thought the Blacksmith Association had done something wrong to provoke the federation."

"Since that's the case, please speak freely, Hall Master Guan. If I am aware of it, I will certainly not conceal it!"

Guan Yue breathed a sigh of relief and then asked very tactfully, "The thing is, today, one of our federation members witnessed the newly appointed vice president of the Blacksmith Association going to the Spirit Pagoda alone!"

"So, I would like to ask if you were aware of this, President Zhenhua?"

Upon hearing this, Zhenhua's tone became noticeably displeased...

"Are you joking, Hall Master Guan? The vice president of the Blacksmith Association has been busy dealing with important matters within the association the whole time. How could he have gone to the Spirit Pagoda without authorization?"

In his view, the newly appointed vice president would not lack savvy so much as to go to the Spirit Pagoda on his own, ignoring the tensions between the Spirit Pagoda and the federation!

Guan Yue's brow furrowed, and she pacified once more, "President Zhenhua, I am not joking. A member of the federation witnessed it with their own eyes. If you don't believe it, you can ask the vice president yourself!"

At this point, Zhenhua also seemed to realize that Guan Yue was not joking...

"Hall Master Guan, please wait a moment, I will thoroughly investigate this matter!"

It was unknown what had happened, but suddenly, the other side fell silent...

At this moment, Guan Yue showed consideration by ending the call...

She then turned her gaze to the War Gods present, "You all must have heard. From President Zhenhua's words, it seems he was not aware of the matter!"

However, the War Gods still harbored suspicion...

"Hall Master, that may not be the case. Perhaps Zhenhua is feigning ignorance, putting on an act!"

"Exactly, anyone in the position of president has to be an old fox. How could they reveal their hand so easily!!"

"Just wait, Zhenhua will definitely deny everything when the time comes, and even if there is evidence, he will push the blame onto the vice president!!"

"I actually think Zhenhua isn't pretending, but we really need to wait to see what the exact situation is!"

Regardless of whether the other side was aware or not, they had to give an explanation to the federation, or else they could be treated as an enemy!

After listening to everyone's comments, Guan Yue did not offer much of an opinion but instead turned to look at Ao Rui, "Ao Rui, what do you think?"

The latter came back to his senses, shaking his head, "I'm not sure either, but if Zhenhua really knew, I don't think he would have let that vice president go to the Spirit Pagoda so blatantly. It must have been a secret contact!"

Otherwise, it would amount to a public declaration of joining the Spirit Pagoda and challenging the federation!

Guan Yue gave a slight nod, "Hmm, that's what I think too. If the Blacksmith Association really wanted to join the Spirit Pagoda, they probably would have done so long ago, not wait until now!"

Indeed, after the crowd discussed for a while longer...

Guan Yue's communicator rang again...

But this time, it was Zhen Hua's voice, tinged with guilt

"Hall Master Guan, regarding what I just said, it seems I misunderstood you. The vice president did, in fact, go to the Spirit Pagoda today!"

Guan Yue's eyes narrowed, "President Zhenhua, since this matter was the vice president's doing, and you were unaware, I won't say much more about it!"

"But you must understand the contradictions between the Spirit Pagoda and the federation!"

Zhen Hua responded affirmatively, "I understand, rest assured, Hall Master Guan, the Blacksmith Association will not join any faction!"

"Even if that means vanishing from this world!"

Guan Yue breathed a sigh of relief, "I naturally believe what President Zhenhua says, but you don't need to be so pessimistic!"

"The federation will not stand by and watch the Blacksmith Association vanish; they will definitely reach out to help!"

However, unexpectedly, he was rejected...

"Thank you for your kind offer, Hall Master Guan, but the current situation of the federation is not optimistic either, it's more important to prioritize self-preservation!"

"As for the Blacksmith Association, I will handle it myself!"

Guan Yue didn't press further, "I understand, but if you encounter any difficulties, President Zhenhua, feel free to contact me!"

"The federation will definitely not stand idly by!"

Having said that, he ended the communication...

...

Meanwhile, looking at the vice president before him, Zhen Hua showed a look of disappointed hope...

The latter also recognized his own mistake and bowed his head, "Sorry, President, this was my own decision, I've caused you trouble!"

Zhen Hua wanted to say something, but then he sighed...

"This is not just a matter of me being troubled, but do you know what consequences your unauthorized contact with the Spirit Pagoda can bring to the Blacksmith Association?"

The former chose silence...

Because he knew, any response at this time would undoubtedly reveal his own stupidity!

Seeing this, Zhen Hua said again, "By doing this, you will make the federation think that the Blacksmith Association is about to join the Spirit Pagoda, and when that time comes, the Blacksmith Association will face a catastrophe!"

Now, for the federation to eradicate the Blacksmith Association, it wouldn't take much effort at all!

The vice president raised his head, looking directly at the former, "President, I understand all that you're saying, but if we don't seek help from other powers, the future of the Blacksmith Association is still bleak!"

Zhen Hua's expression didn't change as he spoke indifferently, "Even so, I don't want you to seek help from other powers, especially not the Spirit Pagoda!!"

The vice president clenched his teeth, "But, the Spirit Pagoda's master is your disciple, if only you would speak, she would definitely..."

His words were promptly countered...

"Enough, I have severed the master-disciple relationship with Gu Yuena!"

"There's no need to bring this up again; if the Blacksmith Association is to disappear, then let it disappear completely!"
