Chapter 3373: Will Personally Guard
Chapter 3373: Chapter 3373: Will Personally Guard
So, one night passed in a tension where no one would yield to another, akin to the clam and the snipe fighting, only to be taken advantage of by the fisher, with the biggest gain going to those who poisoned in the shadows.
...
"I didn’t expect it would be so easy to succeed. We got several patrol squads last night; they were like idiots, having completely lost their vigilance."
Min Yi slapped his thigh and laughed heartily.
Indeed, just as Qian Yizheng said, right after a leadership change, it was the easiest time to strike.
"I could feel last night that even they wanted to take out their own people. The atmosphere was off; I even doubted that if we hadn’t acted, they might have turned on each other themselves."
"Yeah, I felt it too."
Senior Brother Xiao also spoke cheerfully, saying last night was their easiest opportunity to poison. He even saw the Evil Cultivation members arguing while patrolling, almost wishing they could devour each other.
Unfortunately, before they could turn on each other, the poison took effect, leaving him unable to fully enjoy the show.
"Such a situation only lasts one night; tonight it won’t be as easy." Qian Yizheng set down his teacup, tapping his finger lightly on the table.
"Tonight Xiao Yi will react and certainly won’t give us any opportunity again. I reckon tonight, he’ll guard personally."
...
Outside Yang Tianxiu’s courtyard, Xiao Yi emerged, cold air emanating from his entire body.
He hadn’t expected these people to be so bold, knowing he’d returned yet acting so recklessly, even intensifying their actions. He also hadn’t anticipated the audacity of the Patrol Team members, treating his Bloodthirsty Squad as if they were nothing.
This loss was too great, not just leaving less than a hundred in the Patrol Team, but even his Bloodthirsty Squad lost over five hundred members.
Since leading the Bloodthirsty Squad, no matter how dangerous the missions were, he hadn’t lost so many people, unexpectedly failing in this patrol duty matter today.
"Huff!"
He exhaled heavily.
Realizing it wasn’t the issue of one or two people, but a problem involving all the Patrol Team and Bloodthirsty Squad members.
The two teams never interacted daily, suddenly formed together, making conflict inevitable, also partly due to his Bloodthirsty Squad’s arrogance.
This is a mistake and must be corrected.
"Gather all the Bloodthirsty Squad members." He ordered the Evil Cultivation follower behind him.
"Yes, leader."
The Evil Cultivation responded and stepped across Xiao Yi, heading outside the City Lord Residence.
He realized yesterday the calamity today would bring, but couldn’t persuade then; now, at least the leader Xiao Yi finally understands where the mistake lies.
Ah, it’s not easy!
Being such a subordinate is truly difficult, not only must he adhere to duties, trying hard not to let leader Xiao Yi notice his superior intellect, but also think of ways to avoid external patrols, sparing his own life.
Thinking of those sacrificed last night, although alive, are hardly distinguishable from the dead, even worse than dying!
"Tonight, how will we get through it."
He pondered, suspecting their every move was anticipated by those shadow figures, making leader Xiao Yi’s hope to catch those people tonight likely a bust.
Meanwhile, Xiao Yi truly muses on how to catch those people tonight.
Feeling that since those people were so restless, always causing trouble for him, tonight they certainly won’t settle down, he plans to catch them off guard, seizing them all at once.
