Tian Anping and Qing Xi had secretly been working together. Whether this news was important or not depended entirely on how it was used.
There was a lot to think about.
For example, Chongxuan Sheng also worked with the Four Seas Merchant Alliance, but there was no need to hide that partnership.
On the surface, Tian Anping and Qing Xi had nothing to do with each other, yet they were secretly working together. So what were they hiding? What were they collaborating on?
Tian Chang couldn't give a specific explanation. Perhaps he had some suspicions, but he wasn't willing to lay everything out.
Jiang Wang could accept that.
Someone like Tian Chang couldn't be pushed too hard. Jiang Wang allowed him to keep some secrets, as long as he knew where to draw the line at crucial moments.
He had never expected to gain complete control over Tian Chang. He knew it was impossible.
If Tian Chang were that easy to control, he could never have successfully murdered a Family Elder of a top Name Gate and gotten away with it, much less survived under Tian Anping.
Jiang Wang had never been the sort to casually threaten people with a fight to the death. When he showed that he was ready to drag someone down with him, he usually meant it.
Looking at Tian Chang, who sat at the table, Jiang Wang thought for a moment, then said, "I'll be taking part in this Sea Sacrifice, too. If you get any important new information, let me know at once. I know you have a way."
He decided to give Tian Chang a subtle hint, letting him know that his reason for coming to the Near-Sea Archipelago was also tied to the Sea Sacrifice. That might get him more information relevant
