Chapter 499 501 Desperado
"Zhici, news came today from Feilong Academy that Ning Xiaoluo may have awakened natural energy. Many people in the family are now calling for the illegitimate child and his family to return to the family. Ying Cai'e is now running to Sibao Tower every day. What if Ying Cai'e convinces Rong Xianxian and their family agrees to come back? You should think of a solution quickly!" Ning Zhici's wife Yu Yao urged anxiously.
"Stop making noise and leave me some peace and quiet. I think I understand. The old man has not allowed me to use the family power to deal with that little bastard. He is just leaving a way out!" In just half a year, Ning Zhici's temples were covered with white hair, and many wrinkles appeared on his forehead and eyes. He looked much older.
"You still want some peace and quiet? Our family is almost dead." Yu Yao was so anxious that he kept pacing around the table.
"What's the use of being anxious? It's your fault that the son you gave birth to is not good enough. It's fine if you are not good enough, but you can't even give birth to a son after so many years of marriage!" Ning Zhici said angrily.
"My son is not my own." Yu Yao retorted dissatisfiedly.
"Ning Qingyun is indeed powerful. No one in the younger generation of the clan can match him in terms of qualifications and means. If it weren't for the deep hatred, I...ah!" Ning Zhici sighed. He cleaned up the red list from top to bottom, but it didn't have any effect. The information leakage of various actions in the clan was still very serious, and several schemes failed to lead Ning Qingyun's forces out of the safe zone.
"Don't just keep saying discouraging things here, think of something quickly!" Yu Yao said impatiently.
"The third brother's wife probably doesn't want to see Ning Qingyun come back. Her brothers from her mother's side all love their sisters. You can go and find out what she has to say in the next few days!" Ning Zhici whispered to Yu Yao.
Yu Yao nodded in understanding.
In the Gong family mansion, Gong Hanyu locked himself in the room and there has been no movement for half a day.
Zhou Jinxiu walked around outside the door, and finally couldn't help but raised her hand to knock on the door, "Miss, are you okay?"
After a while, just when Zhou Jinxiu was about to break down the door, it opened.
The room was filled with the cool scent of plum blossoms. Gong Hanyu was sitting at the desk, seemingly looking for some information.
"Miss, the head of the family sent someone to tell you to go to the conference room at seven o'clock to discuss matters." Zhou Jinxiu reported.
"I understand. You go down first and call me when the time comes." Gong Hanyu said without raising his head.
"Miss, all the way from Chongzhou to the capital, Rong Xianxian has been hanging out with other men. As far as I know, she still doesn't live with Ning Qingyun, otherwise..." Zhou Jinxiu was speaking when there was a "bang" and a glass lamp flew past her ear and smashed into pieces on the ground behind her.
Zhou Jinxiu was instantly silent. She found a broom to clean up the debris on the ground, then walked out without saying a word.
In the next few days, Gong Hanyu spent a large amount of money and hired many desperate criminals to launch a counterattack. Many of these people were desperate and were willing to risk their lives for money. In just a few days, countless corpses were left in the battle area.
"Is that woman from the Gong family crazy? Does she think the money is too much? What's the point of hiring these people except to send them to their deaths?" Huo Ye said to Chai Ming while looking at the bright red bloodstains in the battle zone.
"This is just the beginning. These people are cannon fodder used to consume our energy. They test us day and night. Even if we can take turns to rest, we will feel mentally tired after a long time!" Chai Ming looked worried.
"What should we do? When we brothers were in the wild, we could still snore loudly even when listening to the roars of monsters. Now we are even more nervous facing this group of mob. What do you think is going on?" Huo Ye indeed found that some team members who were supposed to rest could not sleep at all. After a few days, their eyes were red from staying up all night.
"Killing monsters is different from killing people after all. In just a few days, so many lives were lost here. It's inevitable that people will feel uncomfortable seeing it. I heard that many soldiers who have been to the battlefield will have psychological problems after returning. Do you think we should arrange some psychological counseling?" Chai Ming said.
"But I don't know when the Gong family will launch a real attack? We are short of manpower now, what if we are delayed?" Huo Ye hesitated.
While the two were discussing, a team member came to report that the captain of Team 7, He Wen, and a team of dozens of people had entered their monitoring range.
"Captain Huo, Captain Chai, the commander has ordered that all personnel in this camp immediately withdraw to the safe zone for rest and recuperation." After arriving, He Wen conveyed this order to Chai Ming and Huo Ye.
"We are leaving now. Are you going to be left here to die?" Huo Ye looked at the dozens of people brought by He Wen, very puzzled.
"Who said I would stay here? We will set up the camp and leave with you!" He Wen said while rolling his eyes.
"No, you mean, we are going to give up the territory we just conquered just because of these flies harassing us day and night? Look at so many people who died here, but in fact we didn't lose a single person. The real war hasn't even started yet, but we surrendered. If this gets out, will our Tianhe Mercenary Group still have a good reputation?" Huo Ye became angry when he heard He Wen's words.
"Who said you don't want it? You can just come back after you've repaired it!" He Wen smiled.
"You make it sound easy. Do you know how much explosives and bullets were wasted when we captured this camp? More than a dozen lives were lost. If it weren't for the effective medicine your madam gave you, more people would have died. It's easy to give up now, but it's not that easy to fight back." Huo Ye looked at He Wen with a suspicious look.
"Captain He, everything has been moved down, let's get started!" The people brought by He Wen called her.
"Okay, you guys get ready first, I'll be there soon." He Wen agreed.
"Captain Huo, please send someone to move the explosives out of the warehouse and put them over there." He Wen said, pointing to the back.
"Wait a minute!" Huo Ye was a little worried, so he activated the jade sound transmission talisman and connected with Ning Qingyun.
"Captain, He Wen told us to retreat to the safe zone!" Huo Ye said.
"Well, I gave the order! What's wrong?" Ning Qingyun asked.
"Why?" Huo Ye asked puzzledly.
"Qi Sanbing has suffered casualties. Some of his team members have serious mental problems and need treatment. The members on your side who don't have problems can go to that camp. I have other arrangements for this camp."
"No need to ask more questions now!" Ning Qingyun said and disconnected the connection.
When Huo Ye was still dumbfounded, Chai Ming looked at the actions of He Wen and the others and suddenly realized, "Yezi, don't worry, we won't lose this camp!"
"What do you mean?" Huo Ye asked him hurriedly.
