In the front hall of the Su family's main hall, several leaders have been sitting here since morning, and no one has left.
The discussion in the morning did not last too long. The leaders of each family had already made a decision. In other words, from the moment Su Qiang got the news, it was already destined that King Su and Guo San's family would take action.
The old man has a saying, "You can't allow others to sleep soundly on the side of the bed." Although the conflict with the Lin family has not yet fully emerged, in this vast city, it is only a matter of time before they collide.
The Su Wang family has been united from the beginning. Although the City Lord's Mansion was swinging back and forth before, due to various things that happened later, the Guo family finally became part of the Su Wang family's alliance.
The Lin family and the ghost painter had collided before. Of course, there was an artificial element in this, but it also destined that the Lin family and the ghost painter would never come together.
Originally, even if a conflict would eventually break out between them, the Suwang family would not choose to take action easily, but the problem is what has happened continuously in the past few days.
The most important point is that the small and medium-sized families and forces that secretly interacted with the ghost painter were strangled, and a large number of warriors of the ghost painter were also killed.
Now that the Ghost Painter is completely destroyed and unable to cause any disturbance in Kuocheng, this provides an important condition for taking action against the Lin family. The news brought back by Su Qiang meets another condition for taking action against the Lin family.
With these two conditions in mind, after discussion with the leaders of Suwang Guo's three families, the final decision was of course to take action. However, they needed to make sure before taking action. Only when they were sure of the accuracy of the information could they launch an attack.
Seeing the sun setting in the west, the people sent out have not returned yet. Even Su Jian and Kang Lao, who are the calmest, have anxious looks on their faces.
At this moment, dense footsteps sounded outside the courtyard, and Su Qiang and Su Ming could be seen leading a group of Su family warriors and a group of Wang family warriors hurriedly coming.
Seeing these people, although the leaders in the hall did not stand up to greet them, everyone's bodies unconsciously straightened a little, showing the importance they attached to them.
Su Qiang and Su Ming each led a group of Su family warriors, while the Wang family was led by a captain-level figure. Although this person was only in the middle stage of receiving Qi, he seemed to have a certain ability to summon his subordinates.
Su Qiang was the first to speak and said: "In the old city in the north of the city that I approached directly from the south, the opponent's defense can no longer be described as tight. About a mile away from the old city, you can see suspicious warriors wandering around. It is obviously a kind of
Patrol.
The approach from our side was the most difficult. We could only get past the third row of houses in the old city, and there was no way to go deeper. We had to retreat in order not to alert the enemy."
Then Su Ming said: "We are approaching from the west, and the general situation is the same as that of Su Qiang. However, the defense will be slightly weaker in comparison. However, after we reach the fifth row of houses, we will also be unable to
Go deeper. However, we probed horizontally along the fifth row and found that the warning interval was almost three to four feet, and there was room for further penetration.
It's just that the security posts on the sixth row of houses are interspersed with the fifth row, so if we want to continue to go deeper, we must solve it by hand. We also don't want to alert the snake, so we also retreated."
Finally, there was the warrior from the Wang family. His introduction was simpler. He approached from the east and only reached the second row of houses before retreating. Instead, he later walked around the city wall and looked inward, and he observed some things.
Su Ming continued: "Because the information investigated in the three directions is not much, it is Captain Wang Xiong's method that is very good. From the city wall, we can see that the outside of the houses in the old city is the densest, and the closer you get, the denser the outside.
It will become sparse inside, and judging from the occasional figures that appear in the field of vision, although there are a lot of warriors inside, the threat in terms of cultivation is not great."
After hearing this information, the faces of Su Jian and others softened slightly. Wang Xiao curled his lips and said: "In the battle between the Lin family and the ghost painter, there were one hundred, fifty or sixty people who supported the formation later."
Almost all the people were killed in the side street in the west of the city.
The lowest cultivation level of that group of people is the middle and late stage of Qi Sensing stage, and the rest are at the Qi receiving stage. With such losses, how can they still have any high-level warriors."
Su Jian was a little cautious and asked Su Qiang and Su Ming again. The old man surnamed Kang, who also did not express his position, was obviously more concerned about the detailed information.
Su Qiang and Su Ming detailed all the information they had obtained after observing the city for several hours, including the findings of each observer. Su Jian and Kang Lao relaxed a little.
.
Although he had made a decision in his heart, Su Jian still asked: "The information is already available. Looking at the current situation, even if we continue the investigation like this, it will be difficult to obtain more information, and it will easily expose our intentions.
It aroused the Lin family’s vigilance.”
Wang Xiao, who had already expressed his position long ago, now turned his attention to Guo Xiao, the city lord's palace, along with Su Jian.
At this moment, the old man named Kang no longer had any objections. He turned to look at Guo Xiao calmly and nodded. After all, the current city lord is Guo Xiao, and the final decision must be left to Mr. Kang.
Nodding, Guo Xiao said with firm eyes: "Since everyone has no objections, our City Lord's Mansion also agrees to this action. We just don't know when to take action and how we should cooperate."
"Haha, my nephew is happy enough. Now that he has decided to take action, of course he must be quick with his troops. We must all gather our forces to kill him immediately! But I have agreed that what we get this time will be shared equally. After we get rid of the Lin family, we will
If there is no threat, we can no longer hand over the obtained materials to Ikari."
Wang Xiao excitedly slapped the chair and said with an excited smile, but his mind had already flown to the Lin family's treasure house.
At this time, a woman's voice came slowly, and said tepidly: "Why, Commander Wang is reluctant to part with it? Do you know where the materials I got are, do you have to worry about this?
.”
Everyone in the hall was stunned, and then looked out of the hall, and saw a woman with blond hair as bright as light swaying slowly. Her light blue eyes had not yet entered the hall.
He was already slowly moving and scanning the people in the hall.
It was only a brief surprise, but Ikari's elusiveness has almost become accustomed to everyone present. Because of her special status, and no one can restrain her, she often disappears after looking for a long time, and then suddenly appears at unexpected times.
.
Whether it was the Su Family, the Wang Family or the City Lord's Palace, the Guo Family, all gave Ikari the right to enter and exit freely. Therefore, Ikari arrived silently, with no one notifying her, and no one stopping her.
Hearing what Ikari said, a look of embarrassment flashed across Wang Xiao's face, he coughed, and said with a embarrassed smile: "It's a joke, I was just talking nonsense just now. I just made a joke to everyone, no need to
Take it seriously, Miss Yi doesn’t need to take it seriously.”
Nodding noncommittally, not sure whether she believed it or not, Ikari walked into the hall on her own and said at the same time: "You seem to be making some moves. If you have any clues about the ghost painter, I hope you will
Better be more careful.”
As soon as these words came out, everyone couldn't help being slightly stunned, especially Wang Xiong, the captain of the Wang family. His eyes flickered slightly and he looked up, then immediately looked back.
At this time, Ikari was more concerned about what the people present would do, and did not notice the change in the expression of the captain Wang Xiong who was standing at the back of the hall.
This time Wang Xiao seized the opportunity and said: "You see, it's another misunderstanding. What we want to deal with is not the ghost painter gang, but the Lin family, another threat to Kuocheng."
Obviously a little surprised, Ikari came back this time because she had discovered something and wanted to discuss it with the people in front of her. However, she did not expect that after arriving here, she found that these people had already made new moves and appeared.
Unexpectedly, he had to deal with the Lin family.
"The Lin family! Is there any news about the Lin family?" Ikari asked in surprise.
Su Jian was very calm. He waved his hand for the people below to prepare tea for Ikari, and then said: "I got some information by chance. At first, everyone didn't believe it. However, Su Qiang, Su Ming and the others went to investigate today, and they can
Make sure the other party is definitely the Lin family.
Since the Lin family has plans within Kuocheng, we will definitely have a battle sooner or later, so instead of waiting for a passive confrontation some other time, it is better to take the initiative now."
Listening to what the other party said, Ikari was surprised and almost asked a question like, "Is it from the Shu surname or from the Mu surname?"
Fortunately, when the words came to her lips, Ikari asked: "Where will the Lin family stay?"
Without any concealment, Su Jian replied calmly: "The old district in the north of the city."
‘It turns out to be from the Shu surname, I didn’t expect them to be exposed first.’ She thought in her heart, obviously this result still surprised Ikari.
Seeing Ikari's surprised look, Su Jian looked at Su Ming and tilted her head. Su Ming was a smart girl, so she understood Su Jian's little actions and immediately spoke out in detail about the investigation.
.
When Su Ming told Ikari, Wang Xiao could not wait to start studying the next specific action to deal with the Lin family. Su Jian and Guo Xiao had already agreed to this action, and each came up with their own opinions.
With their opinions, it was not long before a complete plan to attack the Lin family was newly revealed.
Su Ming here has finished speaking, and Ikari has also fallen into deep thought at this time.
"Miss Yi, I wonder if you can cooperate with tonight's action. If you participate, our hope will be greater." Su Jian said with a smile.
Ikari, who was silent for a long time, suddenly said: "Can tonight's operation be cancelled, uh, I mean slightly delayed."
Hearing this, everyone in the hall changed their expressions. Among them, Wang Xiong, the captain of the Wang family, looked the most surprised. However, his expression did not appear out of place in the hall at this time.
