The cold wind in the early morning was still chilly, and there were few pedestrians on the street.
After experiencing the turmoil last night, Shadow Island seemed to have lost its former vitality. The residents on the island were a little afraid and went out later than usual. Even the square dancing ladies became sparse.
Next to the Long Street construction site.
Xiong Fen and his son led the crowd to start repairing the roadside. They looked back at the slightly deserted surroundings with complicated expressions on their faces.
Especially Xiong Zhong, the anger in his eyes is still hard to dissipate.
"Made..."
"I don't know where this shit came from, but it actually caused destruction in our Shadow Island. It almost killed many people, and even the road we just completed was destroyed."
"Don't let me meet them, or they will pay the price!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his father glared at him angrily!
"Hurry up and get down to business, stop beeping!"
"Those enemies last night were by no means ordinary people. If you meet them, I will give them to the black-haired ones!"
"With all this stupidity, you might as well do more work. You obviously haven't mastered the path of involution yet. With your current level of cultivation, it's hard for you to protect yourself!"
As soon as his anger broke out, his father was poured cold water on him. Xiong Zhong looked helpless and could only look at Jiang Yuan behind him to save some face for himself.
"Forehead……"
"Old Jiang, tell me. Are those enemies last night really that powerful?"
"When has our Shadow Island ever been afraid of anyone? Even if I, Xiong Zhong, am just a deputy manager, I am still a member of our Shadow Island. I shouldn't be afraid of a group of sneak attack villains, right? Isn't this just boosting others' ambitions and destroying my own prestige?
!”
Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Yuan's expression became a little subtle.
After pondering for a few breaths, he answered with serious eyes.
"Assistant manager, that's not what you said."
"The enemy last night was far more powerful than what we have seen before. Even the previous demons did not have such masters. It was only with the help of the Second Young Master that the disaster was prevented. You can imagine how tyrannical the opponent was."
"Perhaps, even Lady Jiutian Sword Princess may not be able to deal with it easily..."
"Assistant manager, you'd better be cautious."
Hearing this, Xiong Zhong's eyes widened.
"No way……?"
"I admit that those bastards are a bit strong, but they shouldn't be as powerful as you said, right?"
Just when he was surprised.
Xiong Fen and Jiang Yuan suddenly turned around and saluted into the distance. The workers around them also stood up, looking surprised!
Follow the line of sight.
Only then did Xiong Zhong see Wu Tao walking towards him with his hands in his pockets.
He was so shocked that he quickly clasped his fists.
"Second Young Master!"
As the second son of Shadow Island, Wu Tao naturally has a very high status and rarely appears in front of ordinary people. After his attack last night, he appears again now, which can't help but shock people.
Watching everyone doing the ceremony, Wu Tao nodded lightly.
"Well, keep busy."
Everyone then stood up and looked at Wu Tao's unruly face, feeling indescribable excitement and glory in their hearts.
Xiong Zhong couldn't suppress his curiosity. He hesitated and bowed before asking for advice.
"Second Young Master, I dare to ask..."
This question caught the attention of everyone around him.
Everyone, who was already curious and suspicious, felt uneasy at this moment. Jiang Yuan included, they all wanted to know the inside story of last night's raid.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he started speaking, he was interrupted by Wu Tao's faint voice.
"You don't need to ask about these things."
"To put it bluntly, even if you know it, you can't intervene in the cause and effect, so it's better not to know. Just do your part seriously and that's enough."
"The city has been severely damaged. I have been busy with you recently. I will apply for newly developed work clothes and tools for you. I will also award you with performance awards in the future. I will never let your efforts go in vain."
New work clothes and tools?
And there are awards?!
The promise certainly made everyone excited. Xiong Fen and his son felt as if they had been given a blood injection. They felt so motivated that they wished they could take ten extra classes in a row!
But listening to Wu Tao's serious tone, everyone suddenly felt a drum in their hearts, and their previous confidence also suffered an unprecedented impact. It was as if unknown disasters would always happen in the future, making it difficult for people to feel at ease.
No one uttered a word, but everyone's expressions became alarmed and uncertain. The excitement just now was quickly suppressed, and the atmosphere was gloomy as they looked at each other.
See the situation.
Wu Tao pondered for a moment, then revealed a little bit of the inside story.
"You must have seen what happened last night. Even if you haven't seen it, you have heard about it. The enemy who attacked us is indeed powerful. As expected, it is our old enemy of Shadow Island."
Old enemy!
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone's eyes trembled.
As powerful as Shadow Island, there are opponents who can match it?!
Without waiting for Xiong Zhong to speak nervously, Wu Tao continued to talk.
"However, you don't have to worry too much."
"Those rats yesterday were just minions. They dared to come and harass our senior brothers and sisters before their cultivation was complete, in an attempt to destroy this city and affect Master's plans."
"If our cultivation reaches its peak, what do they mean to us?"
After hearing this, Xiong Fen and the workers felt a little relieved, and at the same time, their eyes towards Wu Tao became more and more enthusiastic.
He is worthy of being the second young master.
The current level of cultivation is very terrifying, and it has not yet reached its peak. If you continue to practice, you don’t know what state you will be in!
In comparison, Xiong Fen and Jiang Yuan were obviously much more sophisticated, and they could also hear the deeper meaning behind their words.
He murmured in surprise and his eyes were shocked.
"The person who came last night was just a miner?!"
"this!"
"Second Young Master, I'm sorry to ask, but what should I do if someone behind the scenes comes?"
"Second Young Master Mingjian, Mr. Jiang's worries are not unreasonable. You and your masters have not yet perfected your cultivation, and the guardians don't know if they can stop the intruders..."
The question shocked the surroundings into silence, and everyone showed expressions of deep contemplation and fear.
moment.
Nearly a hundred workers in the entire long street looked nervously at Wu Tao.
Under the intense attention, Wu Tao smiled faintly.
"Ah……"
"That group of rats only dares to attack secretly. They always behave like a gloomy villain. Just the name of Master has made them so frightened that they never dare to come without permission."
"Even if there are a few reckless people occasionally, they are only in the middle level at most. For those kind of people, just one finger of the Great Protector is enough to wipe them out!"
hiss……
The surrounding people gasped in shock for a moment!
Everyone, including the senior Xiong Fennei, was so shocked by these words that their pupils trembled.
The tyranny of their old enemy was far beyond their imagination. Just the presence of these minions made them fearful, and they could not imagine how powerful the master behind the scenes was.
Never expected that.
Even if you are so tyrannical, you still have to be afraid of the name of Mr., even under the great protector, you can't even compare with a finger?
I'm afraid of a hammer!
Our Shadow Island truly has a wealth of knowledge!
moment.
The faces of hundreds of people turned red, their expressions of excitement continued to spread, the confidence and pride in their eyes were stronger than before, and they quickly got into work!
Xiong Fen and his son were so excited that they felt they had nowhere to vent their energy. They looked around anxiously, grabbed their tie, grabbed the pickaxe of the worker next to them, and started working hard.
In the midst of all the excitement, only two workers were left with messy faces!
Seeing that everyone's mood has stabilized.
Wu Tao turned around and put his pockets in his pockets and continued walking. The sound of his sandals moving gave everyone an infinite sense of stability.
Just walk out of the long street.
The lazy expression on Wu Tao's face quietly dissipated, replaced by a rare solemn expression. He raised his eyes to the sky, with a hint of worry flashing in his eyes.
