#1099 - Chapter 1099 The Insidious Yan Xia
“I haven't asked yet, who is this Great Grandfather...?” Yan Qiu asked.
“Oh, let me introduce you. This Great Grandfather is the wife of Jin Wangji, the father of Yaotao. Moreover, he was also a subordinate of the former Jin Wangchu, and once helped the former Jin Wangchu obtain the position of leader of the Nata tribe,” Bai Yuhou introduced.
“Thump~” After hearing this, Yan Qiu knelt down directly.
“Great Grandfather! This junior's eyes were blind, I have neglected you!”
He kowtowed his head to the ground to show his utmost respect.
“I have received your respect, please get up quickly,” Cheng Bang said.
“Thank you, Great Grandfather!” Yan Qiu kowtowed again, then stood up from the ground.
“Alright, Yan Dong, please tell us about the situation quickly,” Bai Yuhou reminded again.
“Okay!” Yan Dong nodded and introduced:
“My eldest brother, Yan Chun, manages 60% of the land north of Yan Territory, managing 8,000 households. The warriors under his command number as many as 6,000.”
“Currently, my father's favorite is my eldest brother. If there are no accidents, the possibility of my eldest brother obtaining the position of leader is the greatest.”
“However, he is tyrannical in nature and has repeatedly stated that if he can obtain the position of leader, he will definitely kill all of us brothers.”
“Therefore, the three of us brothers have no choice but to stop him.”
“What about your second brother?” Cheng Bang asked.
“The second brother manages the land south of Yan Territory, managing 6,000 households. There are more than 4,000 warriors under his command.”
“However, he is easygoing by nature and generally does not argue with others. There are basically no conflicts with the eldest brother.”
“My third brother and I are relatively weak, each leading more than 1,000 warriors.” Yan Dong gave a general introduction to the situation.
“I have a general understanding of the situation you described. In my opinion, your greatest enemy is your second brother, Yan Xia,” Cheng Bang said.
“Great Grandfather, why do you say that?” Yan Dong didn't quite understand.
“Isn't there something you find strange?” Cheng Bang asked.
“What is it?” Yan Dong asked.
“Why would your eldest brother publicly announce that he would kill all of you after he obtained the position of leader?” Cheng Bang asked.
“Is there a problem with that?” Yan Dong still didn't understand.
In his opinion, his eldest brother was just that kind of person, and it was normal to say such things.
“Did you hear him say it yourself?” Cheng Bang asked.
“Yes! Not only me, but the other brothers all heard it,” Yan Dong nodded affirmatively.
“Think about it, isn't it strange for your eldest brother to say such a thing? Isn't he just making you determined to deal with him together for no reason?” Cheng Bang asked.
“This…” Yan Dong suddenly felt very strange as well.
“Although I haven't met your eldest brother, I guess that even if he is tyrannical, he shouldn't be a fool, right? If it were you, shouldn't you first try to obtain the position of leader, and then say such a thing?” Cheng Bang continued to analyze.
“Great Grandfather's words are very true. However, we heard these words with our own ears, and we heard them more than once. Could there be something we don't know about?” Yan Dong asked.
“Whether there are other things or not, let's not discuss it for the time being. But if you want to see this problem clearly, it's actually not difficult. As long as you understand one problem, this matter will be very clear,” Cheng Bang said.
“What problem?” Yan Dong asked.
“Who can benefit from this matter,” Cheng Bang replied.
“Who can benefit?” Yan Dong pondered carefully. After half a moment, he widened his eyes and said:
“Are you saying it's the second brother!?”
“Of course. Your second brother hasn't taken any action. Isn't he just waiting for you and Yan Chun to suffer losses on both sides?” Cheng Bang asked with a smile.
“So that's how it is!”
“Great Grandfather's words have enlightened me!” Yan Dong bowed deeply.
“Since your eldest brother can say such foolish words, I think the greatest possibility is that he is being controlled by someone,” Cheng Bang added.
“Are you saying that the second brother may be using a wizard to control the eldest brother?” Yan Dong asked speculatively.
Mind control is not a secret in various tribes.
However, the Nata tribe does not use this method to control people, and it is generally used for hunting.
Those who master mind control are called wizards.
“It must be like this,” Cheng Bang nodded.
“The second brother is really too ruthless. If the father finds out, he will probably be punished,” Yan Dong shook his head.
“Your father is now terminally ill, where does he have the energy to take care of him?” Cheng Bang said.
“Yes!” Yan Dong sighed.
“So next, you need to change your way of doing things,” Cheng Bang said.
“How should I change it? Please give me your guidance, Great Grandfather!” Yan Dong humbly asked for advice.
“Now that Yan Qiu has been captured, you must absorb his power as soon as possible,” Cheng Bang said.
“This matter is easy to handle,” Yan Dong replied.
