Chapter 596: Reaping the Consequences, Chaos in the Hidden Alliance (First Update)
In a jungle in the back hill of Zhongjia Manor.
After a rustling sound, a figure emerged from the grass in front, and couldn't help but muttered: "Didn't you say prepare to take action? It's been an hour, why is there still no movement from the lady's side?"
A series of sharp or questioning glances fell on the butler, making his back tighten. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and said: "Maybe there was an accident and the delay. Let's ask someone to find out more information."
"No, it's too late." Xiahou Si put away the high-powered telescope in his hand, his eyes were gloomy, "The dinner party is almost over, and the servants of the Zhong family are making arrangements to leave. If we don't do anything, everyone will be gone."
The chief steward frowned: "What do you mean, Young Master Xiahou?"
Xiahou Si pulled his lips and smiled, his thin lips reddening in a strange way, and said: "Of course I will take the lead."
"What?" Xiahousi glanced at the chief steward, his slightly raised eyebrows showing evil intent, his eyes as sharp as a knife, "Does the chief steward feel that I am not capable enough or do not have enough status to command this battle?"
The smile on the head butler's face was stiff, and he said reluctantly: "Young Master Xiahou, of course I didn't mean it like that, it's just..."
His eyes fell on the uniformly dressed team not far away, and he reminded vaguely: "It's just that Lord Fan Yi and others are Miss Mindi's personal team. Without the order of Miss Mindi, even if our family master comes, I can’t command them.”
Xiahousi's face darkened.
Although I was dissatisfied, I had to admit a fact.
Most of the reason why he agreed to Minty's cooperation was that Minty controlled this team of ancient warriors.
Among the nine major forces of the Hidden Alliance, although the strength of the four hidden forces is slightly higher than that of the five hidden families, the gap is not that big.
At least it won't be so big that any force would dare to suddenly launch an attack on another force.
In addition, the nine major forces have always been threatening each other, and a delicate balance has been maintained between them.
Unless one day a certain force suddenly gets a huge opportunity, no matter who it is, they will not easily break this balance.
Now Mindi took the initiative to start a fight, and even wanted to take advantage of this opportunity where major forces gathered to kill all the enemies. This was because she had the confidence to break the balance without being sanctioned.
Obviously, this team of ancient warriors who came from nowhere is her greatest confidence.
Similarly, this is also the reason why Xiahousi, as the young master of Tianyumen, allows Mingdi to be the leader.
Countless thoughts went through Xiahousi's mind, and his face was full of irritation and anger: "Then what do you want to do?!"
"Could it be that if Mindy doesn't show up for a moment, we won't do anything for a moment, and if she doesn't show up for an hour, we won't do anything for an hour!"
"How much manpower, material, and financial resources did we spend to move so many people quietly to the back of the Zhong family? If we missed this opportunity, when will we have to wait until next time?!"
Xiahousi had been suppressing his temper these past few days, but now he couldn't help it anymore and sneered: "Let me remind you that the target of our Tianyumen is only Xie Xihe. Even if we miss this time, the worst is to find a way to get it." Xie Xihe’s family and friends are threatening her, but I don’t believe that Xie Xihe can be so cold-blooded that she doesn’t care about the lives of those people!”
"But if your Caroline family misses this time, without the help of smoke and poison provided by Tian Yumen, even with the team of ancient warriors in hand, it will be difficult for you to defeat all other forces with your strength!"
"Don't forget, Blackstone's Xuan Guards are not vegetarians!"
"The Lord of the Black Stone is absent this time, otherwise you might not even be able to eat a single Black Stone!"
Every time he said something, the head butler's face turned pale.
Why didn't he know about these problems? But the key point is that he couldn't command the team of ancient warriors!
And if there is no team of ancient warriors charging into the battle, their Caroline family's beast team alone will not be enough to kill all the people below!
While he was hesitating, a cry of surprise suddenly sounded.
The butler was full of irritation and immediately scolded her: "Have you found the young lady or something? What is all the fuss about?!"
The person who made the sound was a sentry. At this moment, his hand holding the telescope was trembling slightly, and he stuttered: "Yes... I saw the lady..."
The chief steward's eyes lit up, and he immediately stepped forward and took the telescope from the sentry's hand, looked at it, and asked at the same time: "Which direction?"
"In the small park on the edge of the banquet venue, in the direction where the lady asked Milia to guard before..." the man replied with a trembling voice.
The chief steward knew the location and immediately moved the telescope to look over.
next moment……
With a muffled sound of "bang", the butler slipped his hand and the telescope in his hand fell to the ground. However, he seemed not to notice it and stood there with his hands raised flatly in front of his eyes, with a wonderful expression on his face. The color palette is average, but it’s colorful!
At the same time, there was an angry "shit!"
Xiahou Si looked at the picture in the telescope lens and was so angry that he kicked a rock to pieces!
It took me a lot of patience to endure the curses that came to my mouth!
Special!
Hundreds of thousands of people on their side were waiting for her to give the order for a general attack. Fortunately for her, not only did she disappear, but she also did what she did in public!
What the hell is this if it's not a disease? !
Although he couldn't hear the sound, Xiahou Si could guess how exciting the situation was over there just by looking at the picture. The sneer at the corner of his mouth became even worse and he said: "This is what the butler said was an accident. It is indeed quite unexpected, Mingdi." The lady really gave me a big surprise!"
He sneered: "Miss Mingdi did this to delay the end of the banquet. Then she had a good idea and succeeded."
"After all, everyone is here to watch the fun. Who still remembers that the banquet is over and it's time to leave?"
Under Xiahou Si's cynicism, the chief steward finally came to his senses, trotted up to Xiahou Si, lowered his voice and said, "Young Master Xiahou, calm down, calm down!"
"Our lady is not such an indifferent person. She must have been plotted by someone. Only the three of us saw it at the moment. You must not say it in front of everyone, otherwise today's operation will really be carried out. I can’t go down anymore!”
Xiahou Si sneered: "Otherwise, why do you think I was holding back and not saying anything?"
Aren't you afraid of disrupting the morale of the military and causing the operation to fail?
Xiahousi secretly regretted that he should not have impulsively agreed to Mindi's cooperation, but now the arrow was on the string and it was too late for him to regret it.
After pondering for a while, he said: "I remember you said that the first task of that team of ancient warriors is to protect Mindi?"
