C178 Make the First Move

"Boring!"    

    

Bai Ru rolled her eyes at Lo Tian when she saw that he didn't even dare to speak. The two of them had already walked to the room in the backyard. Bai Ru pointed to the room in the corner and said, "You will be staying in that room for the next few days. The room was not big, but it was enough for you to live in. However, try not to go anywhere for the next few days. The fewer people know that you are in Bai family, the safer you will be. Food and drink will be delivered to you, so don't cause any trouble. The few houses around you are the residences of a few elders of Bai family, so your safety is guaranteed. Even if the Hsu family sent some experts to assassinate you, they won't be able to do anything to you!"    

    

Bai Ru raised her head and said proudly. Obviously, she was very confident in the strength of her family.    

    

In a big family like Bai family, just the number of experts hired by them was countless. Adding the elders that her family had nurtured, they were indeed a powerful force. The Hsu family definitely didn't have such strength. Otherwise, Lo Tian would have died a long time ago.    

    

Lo Tian nodded his head lightly and said, "Thank you very much!"    

    

Bai Ru did not say anything else. She turned around and walked to the side room. Obviously, she was going to instruct the elders of the Bai family.    

    

Lo Tian wasn't a person who liked to cause trouble. Besides, he was happy that someone was taking care of his food and accommodation. He walked towards the corner of the room. This was a square corridor, and there were rooms on all four sides. Roughly counting, there were seven or eight rooms that went up.    

    

In the middle of the corridor was an open-air training field without a roof, covered in limestone. In the middle was a crystal puppet that specialized in measuring attributes, surrounded by all kinds of weapons. There was also a protective crystal that was as tall as a person in the four corners of the ground. It only needed to be injected with strength. A transparent shield would be formed.    

    

Lo Tian pushed open the door and entered the room. It was a simple setup, a white wall, a wooden bed, two tables, and a pot of tea. It was not big, but it was enough. Lo Tian was very satisfied.    

    

Next, it was time to see how the Bai family Master was going to operate it, if his guess was correct. The current Bai family Master should have started contacting the Yang family and Su family as well. Although the Bai family Master seemed calm and composed while chatting with him, he was as still as a mountain. The Hillman had his own brilliant plan.    

    

However, Lo Tian could see from his eyes that the Bai family Master had been holding back against the Hsu family for a long time. He would never miss this opportunity. Perhaps, this matter would go much smoother than he had imagined.    

    

Lo Tian slowly took out the crystal from his pocket. This crystal was the key to the key!    

    

Maybe it was really worth a lot of money?    

    

Lo Tian looked at it and laughed foolishly.    

    

At night, two carriages quietly arrived at the back door of Bai family. The people who came were all wrapped in large black robes, covering their bodies and faces. They quickly entered the Bai family.    

    

Outside the Bai Mansion, in a dark corner, a few pairs of eyes saw this scene and quickly began recording.    

    

"It's the carriage of the Su family. The horse of the Su family has a special beast blood. The hooves of the horse are quite big, and its voice is heavy. I will never mistake it for someone else."    

    

"The other one must be the carriage of the Yang family. It's made of black iron, and it's extremely heavy. Only this kind of carriage would leave such a deep trail on the ground."    

    

"Quickly report to Captain Meng. The three families of Su Bai and Yang have met. The thing they are most worried about has happened."    

    

"Do we need to inform Hsu family?"    

    

"Notify. Of course we need to inform them. Otherwise, if something really happens, no one will be able to bear the responsibility!"    

    

"Yes!"    

    

Several martial artists quickly left and disappeared into the dark night sky.    

    

A moment later, a carriage also appeared from the back door of Hsu family and headed straight to governor Prefecture.    

    

"Quick, quick, quick!"    

    

The person in the carriage was Patriarch Hsu. At this moment, his face was full of anxiety. He looked panicked and terrified. His hands and feet were sweating as he kept wiping his pants. His eyes were sparkling. He had never looked like this even when he was blocked by Lei Jian at the back door.    

    

The carriage had just stopped in the backyard of governor Prefecture when Patriarch Hsu rushed out. Ignoring the guards of governor Prefecture, Patriarch Hsu sprinted all the way to the study room of governor under the astonished gazes of these people.    

    

Before he entered, Patriarch Hsu began to shout loudly, "governor, it's not good, it's not good!"    

    

Rushing into the study room, Patriarch Hsu saw the furious governor.    

    

Suppressing his anger, the governor coldly said, "Who did you say was not good? I'm very good!"    

    

Patriarch Hsu hurriedly explained, "No, no, no. I'm talking about my bad. Hsu family's bad! Tonight, Su Bai, Yang and the other two families secretly met. "    

    

Governor said calmly," If it's a meeting, then so be it. Is there a need for you to make such a big fuss? "    

    

Patriarch Hsu gritted his teeth and said, "governor, don't joke around. Don't you understand why the three families are meeting? Especially at this moment. Don't tell me that you're not worried that the situation will change?"    

    

When governor heard this, he stood up. With his hands behind his back, he looked at Patriarch Hsu and said," What? Could it be that this province city can change the heavens? What can they do to governor Prefecture? "    

    

Patriarch Hsu still wanted to say something, but the governor continued, "Alright, did you bring the medicinal liquid?"    

    

Patriarch Hsu was startled for a moment. After which, he lowered his head and replied," We still need time. "    

    

"What's the solution? What about the crystal?"    

    

The governor continued.    

    

Patriarch Hsu secretly clenched his fist and said, "It also needs time."    

    

The governor took a deep breath and said, "Then there's nothing else to say. Patriarch Hsu, it's late at night. Let's go back to the manor to avoid catching a cold at night."    

    

Patriarch Hsu stood where he was and secretly gritted his teeth. His eyes stared straight at the governor, but he had no intention of leaving.    

    

The governor also stared at him. They looked at each other, and Patriarch Hsu immediately understood a lot of things.    

    

In a moment, the governor said, "What? Patriarch Hsu, do you still need me to send someone to send you back?"    

    

Patriarch Hsu shook his head and said, "No need, no need, governor. I'll go back now. Please forgive me for troubling you. "    

    

After saying that, Patriarch Hsu left the study without looking back. The governor looked at his back and let out a cold snort.    

    

An old man slowly walked out from the corner of the study. He had been standing there the whole time, but Patriarch Hsu did not notice at all. The old man softly said, "Sir, is this really good? After all, you still need the Hsu family."    

    

The governor replied, "If I don't do this, he will completely drag me down with him. I can tolerate the rise of the Hsu family in the city, but I will never allow him to destroy the entire city. "    

    

The old man sighed, "But doing this might cause trouble."    

    

The governor slowly said, "Trouble, what I am least afraid of is trouble. I would like to see how bold this Xu is."    

    

Outside, Patriarch Hsu quickly left and returned to the carriage.    

    

With a wave of his hand, a middle-aged man followed Patriarch Hsu into the carriage. The moonlight shone through the curtain of the carriage and reflected half of Patriarch Hsu's face.    

    

He spoke word by word. Patriarch Hsu said, "We can't delay any longer. Since governor Prefecture doesn't want to help, we have to strike first and gain the upper hand!"
