"A few hours..." Yang Qing murmured as he did a few calculations in his mind. "That should be enough time for me to chart my next steps...
There's also the matter with Xia Fang and her request."
Xia Fang had made two requests of him—one was to find out what happened to her clan after she left, and the other was to locate her traveling partner, Lai Hu (whom he suspected could be more than just a 'traveling partner' to her).
While his ability to fulfill the second request remained uncertain, the first was well within reach. Before leaving his office, he had already passed on the task to his Flying Shadow Hawks liaison, asking for all available information on the Violet Feather Sword Sect, with a specific focus on the events of the past eighteen months, thus covering the period since Xia Fang's departure.
Given that a few hours had passed, he felt it should be enough time for his liaison to have gathered the file, hopefully with up-to-date details.
