Chapter 786: Meeting Linghu Qianjiao Again
Early the next morning, Long Jingtian had used certain special channels to make contact with the Hattori Clan from Japan.That afternoon, the Clan Leader of the Hattori family, Hattori Jiro, hurriedly brought several trusted members of the Hattori Clan to Huaxia, and began negotiations with Long Jingtian.
The incident was triggered by the Hattori Clan’s theft of a Huaxia treasure; knowing he was at fault, Hattori Jiro—under the immense pressure from Long Jingtian—eventually conceded to paying five billion US dollars to redeem Hattori Yumi and the others.
After returning to Japan with the redeemed martial artists of the family, Hattori Jiro immediately resigned from his position as Clan Leader, and Hattori Yumi, due to the severe mistakes made in this incident, lost the qualification to compete for the position of the next Clan Leader of the Hattori family.
Having undergone this ordeal, the once-prominent Hattori Clan in Japan suddenly became subdued, like an injured lion quietly licking its wounds.
After Long Jingtian returned to Yanjing with the Dragon Guard members, he converted Fang Bai’s rightful wealth into Huaxia currency and deposited it into Fang Bai’s account.
If Fang Bai were to check his account, he would find a startling string of numbers.
However, at this moment, Fang Bai was unaware of this, and he did not make any special effort to check his account.
Having parted ways with Long Jingtian and the others, Fang Bai continued his journey of experience.icket from Huaxia to America, preparing to make a trip to Hawaii.
In the evening, Fang Bai entered the airplane he was to board, and just after he had settled down, he sensed a familiar presence.
"Is it her?"
Following the presence, Fang Bai looked up and saw a girl in white entering the plane, heading in his direction.
"Mr... Mr. Fang?"
After the girl in white boarded the plane, she saw Fang Bai and paused, taken aback.
"Miss Linghu, we meet again! Are you also headed to Hawaii?"
Fang Bai greeted the girl in white who had approached him with a smile and casually asked.
"Yes!"
The girl in white slightly parted her cherry lips, a smile flickered at the corners of her mouth before disappearing, and then she returned to her usual tranquil demeanor.
The girl in white had a graceful figure and stunning beauty. Draped in a white dress, she resembled a pure and pristine snow lotus on a snowy mountain. Furthermore, her unique aura as a martial artist attracted almost every eye in the cabin upon her entrance.
The girl in white was none other than Linghu Qianjiao, whom Fang Bai had encountered near Shigong Village.
Although Linghu Qianjiao and Linghu Baimei were twins and came from the same sect, one was cruel and ruthless, akin to a witch; the other compassionate and merciful, almost a saintess. Their manners, as well as their temperaments, were starkly different. If one hadn’t witnessed it personally, it would be hard to believe such a vast contrast existed between the twin sisters.
"Miss Linghu’s seat... it wouldn’t happen to be here, would it?"
Fang Bai asked, gesturing to the seat next to him.
"Mhm!"
Linghu Qianjiao nodded, her voice soft, "I didn’t expect to encounter Mr. Fang here; what a coincidence!"
"Indeed, it’s quite the coincidence! Miss Linghu, please take a seat!"
Once Linghu Qianjiao sat down beside him, Fang Bai asked with a smile, "May I know if Miss Linghu is traveling to Hawaii for leisure, or is there another matter?"
Linghu Qianjiao glanced at Fang Bai, hesitating to speak.
"I was just asking casually. If it’s inconvenient, you don’t have to say."
Fang Bai said with an unconcerned smile.
Linghu Qianjiao sighed softly, "I received news that my sister might be in Hawaii..."
Fang Bai instantly understood why Linghu Qianjiao had hesitated just now; she knew her sister, Linghu Baimei, bore a grudge against him and was worried he might cause trouble for her.
"Miss Linghu, rest assured, I promised you that as long as your sister doesn’t offend me again, I will not interfere with her," Fang Bai stated earnestly.
Linghu Qianjiao gave a bitter smile and said, "My sister has always been stubborn and competitive since childhood. What worries me now is that her repeated failures to kill you have only fueled her competitive spirit, making her more determined to deal with you..."
