Lei Tian narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at Xiong Batian.
However, his expression returned to normal in an instant.
"Lord Xiong Batian."
Lei Tian clasped his fists in salute.
"Mm." Xiong Batian nodded.
"What is your clan doing?"
Xiong Batian asked.
He had sensed that something was off, but he could not be certain.
Mainly because it seemed too unlikely.
So he was really just asking casually.
"We had just dispatched a large number of our members to search for Princess Xue Ling when we happened to encounter you, Lord Xiong."
Lei Tian was clever as well.
He knew that the Thunder Lion Clan sending out such a large search party was indeed a bit excessive and suspicious.
So Lei Tian's explanation did not seem to have any major issues.
"We have been searching for Princess Xue Ling all along, but after searching for so long without any news, I just ordered the entire clan to go search for Princess Xue Ling," Lei Tian said.
"Mm." Xiong Batian nodded.
There did not seem to be any major problem with that.
Since they had only just set out, it was normal for their people to be clustered together.
"Lord Xiong, is there any news of Princess Xue Ling? For instance, an approximate location? That way, I can send people to focus their search there." Lei Tian feigned ignorance.
"I don't know either. There is not much information at the moment, so I am leading people to search as well," Xiong Batian said.
Lei Tian nodded. "Since you have come all the way here, why not come into the clan and have a seat? Perhaps we can discuss the few clues each of us has gathered. Maybe they will prove useful once we put them together."
His goal was simple.
