"Lathander," Hill said softly. "Did you think of someone?"
Shar raised an eyebrow slightly. "I was surprised when I first found out. How could he possibly have guessed?"
The faint ripples that had arisen in Shar's heart quietly settled again... Her attention swiftly focused on the unexpectedly well-informed message Lathander had received.
Although Great Peacock knew a great deal of information, his reactions were not particularly quick... The Dawnbringer gathered intelligence, but it was not transmitted that fast.
She had only just learned about it herself. How could Lathander possibly...
"Umberlee never intended to hide it." Lathander chuckled. "Ah, no, that's not right. It should be said that Chief Steward Lu never intended to hide it. He even dropped a few hints to Young Master's group, who were relatively close to them.
During this period, Umberlee's Sharkheads had been constantly traveling back and forth across the Great Sea. How could Young Master possibly not investigate?
Everyone knew that Umberlee's Chosen now basically carried out Lu Huayu's will."
Hill could only chuckle as well. The grudge between those two families would not disappear because of Young Master's own thoughts.
Even if they temporarily reconciled, they would still be extremely wary of each other. And the slightest matter could easily stir up fresh waves... A handshake between those at the top never meant that the ordinary members would stop cursing at one another.
But if Lu Huayu truly wanted to hide something from Asking Sword, Young Wanderer Under Heaven next door, it would not have been that difficult.
As Lathander said, this only proved that he had never intended to conceal it from the beginning.
Shar, who had understood as well, was a little unhappy... She truly disliked this sort of unexpected development.
But the Undead had never done anything she expected.
