“What’s going on? Why you so panic?”
Chi Cangmei was not happy.
The guard swallowed the foam with difficulty and said in a trembling voice, “News from the front line, action…action… ”
“What happened to the action?”
Someone couldn’t help asking.
“There are twists and turns in action.”
The guard took a few deep breaths before he finished speaking, which showed his panic and excitement.
Twists and turns?
Hearing this, many people were surprised, but they didn’t regard it was important. Twists and turns were not equal to a complete failure. Why he made a fuss?
Even Chi Cangmei seemed to be relieved.
She arranged all forces outside the Yellow Dragon City, which was a desperate action. It didn’t make the sense if they failed again this time.
“Calm down first and tell the story slowly.”
Chi Cangmei suggested.
The guard nodded and narrated, “Just a short time ago, the commander of the front line sent a message that the target had dressed up and left the Yellow Dragon City…”
Next, he repeated the information he received word for word.
When hearing that Lin Xun was discovered by Young Mu in time, many people couldn’t help but praise Young Mu for his beautiful work.
But when they heard that the target defeated their forces easily, their faces suddenly changed and they were shocked.
When hearing that Lin Xun was chased by five Ziying Battleships before he was about to get out of the encirclement and dived into the river, all the people, including Chi Cangmei, constantly had their faces changed. Their looks turned gloomy in the following retelling.
Even the atmosphere in the room was becoming more and more oppressive, making people hard to breathe smoothly. Only the hoarse and low voice of the guard reverberated in the air.
“The target was seriously injured even he didn’t die right away. So we sent people to dive into the water to investigate. Who would have thought that all the 50 practitioners who dived into the water were killed on the spot?!”
Bang!
Hearing this, the tea cup in Chi Cangmei’s hand suddenly crumbled, turning into powder and splashing to the ground from her fingers.
She seemed to be unaware of it though.
Chi Cangmei’s clear eyes were full of shock, her delicate face was extremely gloomy and there were irresistible anger between her eyebrows.
More than 2000 well-equipped elite practitioners and five Ziying Battleships were mobilized to deal with target at the same time. Under such a powerful encirclement and suppression force, they still failed to kill the target!
They were a bunch of shit!
For a moment, the room was silent. Everyone was like a hibernating cicade. No one dared to look at Chi Cangmei.
They all knew that Chi Cangmei was about to be angry. In this state, she wouldn’t hesitate to kill people if someone annoyed her!
In fact, Chi Cangmei was almost unable to control her temper. She felt deeply depressed. Since Xu Qianjing left, she had never been happy every time she heard the news from the front line.
Especially this time, she sent a huge force that could even kill the strongmen in Sea Spirit Realm, but there was still nothing to do with the target!
If this thing was passed on, how would the big wigs in the family think of her? How would people all over the world think of their Chi Family?
It was too shameful!
Chi Cangmei would like to rush to the front by herself!
But soon, she calmed down. Venting anger was the performance of incompetence. It was imperative to find out the reason behind this series of failures.
“Is there anything else besides that?”
Chi Cangmei opened her mouth indifferently and tried to control her tune and mood.
“According to the analysis, the target now has the cultivation of Earth-gang Realm so its combat effectiveness is more than twice as strong as before.”
The guard was very nervous and worried that Chi Cangmei would kill him in a rage, so he replied carefully, “It is not because they don’t do the best in the action, but because the enemy is too strong. They had done everything useful but didn’t success in the end.”
Crack!
A cup hit the guard’s head severely, which made him shake all over and his face twitch, bleeding on his forehead.
This was not Chi Cangmei’s action, but a young man of a powerful family beside her. He couldn’t control his anger and cried out, “How could the reason be that the target is too strong?! What kind of shit excuse! ”
“Enough.”
Chi Cangmei said a word with strong deterrent, which let the roaring man stagnant and dare not talk.
“That’s all the news from the front line?”
Chi Cangmei asked.
The guard hurriedly assured the truth with his life.
“The commander of the front line is Du Xingchuan. I know his character. If he said this, this situation must be true.”
Chi Cangmei massaged her eyebrows and seemed tired. She commanded then, “Tell Du Xingchuan to move on. I need the real record from the Wind-shadow Hawk next time when he sends the messages.”
There were lots more than eyes seeing, but if she could see all the details of the action, she would clearly know how strong the target was!
The guard went with the task.
The room once again fell into silence.
Chi Cangmei pursed her lips and thought quietly. Her beautiful but sharp face was shrouded in a haze.
Those deputies from the aristocratic families looked at each other at a loss. They couldn’t bear the bad feeling now as they were sitting on pins and needles.
“What a fucking twists and turns? It’s obviously a major defeat…” Someone muttered.
As soon as the words came out, Chi Cangmei looked at him with sharp eyes, which made the man stiff all over. He quickly explained, “I… I’m just grumbling.”
Chi Cangmei sneered coldly, “Grumbling? That’s what you are best in? What else have you done?”
These words made all the deputies look gloomy and sit still as wax statue.
“Don’t forget what I said earlier. If the action fails, I won’t forgive you! ”
As she spoke, Chi Cangmei got up, pushed the door open and went out, leaving a group of deputies in the room. They felt completely stupefied at this time.
…
Castle of the Night
“Sister Shia Zhi, why you want to kill me? Did I do something wrong?”
In the dark, a question was raised.
A teenager with a snow-white dress, red lips and nice teeth stood in the hall. His pair of eyes was as bright as stars. A birthmark purple lotus in the center of his eyebrows made him appear different.
Although he was young, his body was filled with a wisp of purple holy light as he stood still. He didn’t look like an ordinary person but like the son of God.
This special feature belonged to Chi Cangfeng, who had special blood gift of Golden Sea and Purple Lotus!
Unlike the usual days, at his throat, there was an eye-catching bloody finger mark.
On his opposite, there was a closed door. Chi Cangfeng looked at that door, and a hint of anger flashed through his eyebrows.
Although Shia Zhi ignored him when he visited her in the past, she never turned him down.
But when he came this time, he was grabbed by Shia Zhi at his throat without any words. He would almost have his neck broken if the Queen of Dark Night didn’t stop Shia Zhi in time.
Chi Cangfeng was sure that Shia Zhi really wanted to kill him at that moment. This fact shocked him with anger, so much so that he was unable to accept all this.
Shia Zhi had been locked into the forbidden room by the Queen of the Dark Night now, but Chi Cangfeng still felt unbalance in mood. He did not want to revenge; he just want to know the reason!
“Not only you, but I want to kill your elder sister.”
Behind the closed door, a quiet, indifferent and ethereal voice suddenly sounded, and soon disappeared.
“You… you want to kill my elder sister?”
Chi Cangfeng was completely stunned for a long time. He said angrily, “Shia Zhi, why you want to kill us? Tell me the reason, please? ”
There was no response.
The angry shouts echoed in the dark.
“If you don’t tell me, I’ll find out by myself. When I get the reason, I’ll solve it!”
Waiting for a while, Chi Cangfeng gnashed his teeth, turned his head and strode away.
From beginning to end, there was no sound coming from the closed door again.
In another empty room of the Castle of the Night, a kind old man was sitting alone and gently stroking a black pendant with his hand, which was ten centimeters long and shaped in an ancient sword.
The old man’s face was full of concentration, seriousness and solemnity.
This was the treasure that accompanied him for most of his life. He fought with it and met strong man with it in the world!
“The kid from the Chi Family is gone.”
All of a sudden, there was a low and magnetic voice.
The old man was stunned. He smiled and said, “Miss, are you worried about his appearance will bring trouble to Lin Xun?”
“It’s not a worry; it’s a certainty.”
“I see. I’ll go to the Imperial Observatory and ask them who will bear the consequences if someone breaks the rules.”
The old man gently narrated his plan.
“Sorry for bothering.”
“It’s not a problem. By calculating the day Lin Xun left from the Mist City, if he is still alive, he may enter the Forbidden City in a short time. I can take this opportunity to go out and ask for information.”
“When you come back, go and see Shia Zhi. She might already know a lot of things. Otherwise, she will not want to kill Chi Cangfeng today.”
A feeling of complexity appeared in the old man’s eyes, “Only things related to Lin Xun could affect her mood…”
As he spoke, the old man put away his sword-shaped jade pendant, got up and walked out of the room.
…
By the river
The bamboo-hatted man looked gloomy and he didn’t speak a word.
He was Du Xingchuan in Chi Cangmei’s words. He was also the commander of this operation.
He has received instructions from Chi Cangmei to continue the task.
However, it has been seven days past since he received the instruction, but the target didn’t make any movement!
Du Xingchuan was sure that the target didn’t leave the river!
They distributed their power along the river. As long as the target appeared, he would be discovered at the first time. There was no way for the target to sneak away again.
“I can’t afford our consumption any longer…”
Du Xingchuan sighed in his heart. In these seven days, they had consumed a huge amount of materials. The remaining materials were almost unable to support them more days.
The most chilling thing for Du Xingchuan was that after seven days, his companies became anxious and uneasy and their fighting spirit gradually dissipated since the target didn’t appear. This was the most terrible situation!
If things continued like this, it would only get more and more serious!
“What should I do?”
Du Xingchuan was perplexed and at a loss.
