Chapter 579: Chapter 579
Hongbei Yuanye, who had been sitting on the sofa the entire time with a smile on his face and didn’t say anything, saw that his father was almost done venting his anger, he then said, “Dad, calm down. You Can’t completely blame Yongye for this. He’s also kind-hearted, but he’s still too young and impatient.”
It seemed like Hongbei Yuanye was trying to help his younger brother, but he also belittled his younger brother in the process.
Hongbei Yongye looked down on his older brother in his heart. His older brother had always been like this. He seemed to be helping you out of kindness, but at the same time, he would step on you ruthlessly.
However, Hongbei Liang still valued his eldest son. After Hongbei Yuanye told him, he was still angry, but he didn’t scold Hongbei Yongye anymore, he just said unwillingly, “Sigh, my heart hurts so much when I think about how I sacrificed so many death warriors.”
“Father, up until now, only the latest death warrior has been sacrificed. The death warriors that were planted within the Green Gang haven’t been discovered yet. Do you want me to ask them to withdraw?” Hongbei Yongye asked carefully.
!!
However, Hongbei Yongye’s suggestion was brushed off by his father, Hongbei Liang. “Do you think you can withdraw now?”
Just as Hongbei Liang was raging at his youngest son in the study, Chen Meng’er was slowly dealing with the ninjas that were hiding in the shadows of the Hongbei family.
In the eyes of others, these ninjas that they feared were nothing in Chen Meng’er’s eyes.
Her enhanced senses allowed her to easily find out where the ninjas were hiding.
As the ninjas fell one by one, Chen Meng’er was surprised to find that she was getting better at controlling her senses. Furthermore, she was getting more and more accurate. This could be seen from the position of the silver needles that Chen Meng’er shot out. Previously, the silver needles that were stabbed into the ninjas were all in different positions. However, in the end, the positions of the silver needles that had been pierced into the bodies of the fallen ninjas were almost exactly the same.
After finishing off the last ninja, Chen Meng’er opened her eyes, heaved a sigh of relief, and clapped her hands. “Phew, it’s finally done. Sigh, it looks like the number of ninjas in the Hongbei family is really not small,” Chen Meng’er said, she felt sorry for the amount of silver needles that were missing from her bag. Then, she silently decided to ask her grandfather to prepare more silver needles for her when she went back.
Chen Meng’er looked around. She found that this place didn’t look big from the outside, but when she walked in, she found that the Hongbei family’s old mansion was completely different from what they had seen. It was quite big.
Chen Meng’er looked at the almost unchanged building and felt a little dizzy. She seemed to have forgotten to ask Ying and the others if they had investigated which wing Hongbei Yongye lived in.
After Chen Meng’er observed her surroundings for a while, she decided to search one room after another. It was impossible for her to take advantage of the situation. As she was thinking, she saw the lights in one of the rooms lit up, which was particularly eye-catching among all the rooms with the lights off.
Chen Meng’er thought that since she didn’t have a target, she might as well start from the room with the lights on. Perhaps, she might even be able to capture someone and pry something useful out of him.
As Chen Meng’er thought about this, she started moving towards the room with the lights on.
Just as Chen Meng’er approached this room, she heard an old voice from within the room. “You two should think about what you should do now. How should I report this to the Council of Elders later. You both know that the loss of the death warriors isn’t a small matter.”
Chen Meng’er didn’t restrict her hearing, so she listened to every single word that the old voice said. She thought about that sentence for a moment, and her eyes lit up. She didn’t expect that her luck today would be so good.
The person she was looking for, Hongbei Liang, was in this room. Besides, it sounded like he was talking about the Green Gang.
“This is going to be difficult. The Council of Elders have been looking for trouble with our family for a long time. They will definitely make things difficult for us.” Hongbei Liang was a little distressed, but he had a smile on his face the whole time, this was the type of person that Chen Meng’er disliked the most.
“Yeah, I’m also worried that they won’t let this matter go.” Hongbei Liang also frowned with a worried expression on his face. Meanwhile, the main culprit, Hongbei Yongye, had been lowering his head the entire time. He was prepared to not raise his head for the entire night.
Chen Meng’er hid behind a tree some distance away from the window. She wanted to hear what Hongbei Yongye and the others were discussing. Just as she was getting excited from listening to them, a cat suddenly appeared out of nowhere and caused quite a commotion.
Hongbei Yuanye, who had been paying attention to the commotion outside, heard the noise and shivered. He stood up, ran to the window, and opened it.
