Chapter 844: Devious

Translator: Vesper

After Qing Huai and Qing Liu left, Qiao Tian Chang sat next to Ning Meng Yao: “Why would you agree?”

“Even if I don’t agree, they will still go ahead and do it, so what’s the point.” Giving them comfort occasionally would make them more determined to let go, what‘s wrong with that?

Qiao Tian Chang was stunned for a while, then he laughed.

Xiao Ren came to their courtyard after he took care of things: “Miss, the attack outside is getting worse. We might not be able to withstand it for long if this continues.” Although the entrance had been hidden, the guards protecting it were still getting heavily injured by the attackers.

Judging by the seriousness of the situation now, unless they used the defences stored, they would not be able to hold any much longer. But Miaojiang might be destroyed if they actually touched those things there, which was not what they wanted.

Ning Meng Yao nodded: “Okay, I know what to do, we’ll divide our people at the back of the mountain and bring some of them here. One more thing, Uncle Ren, can you tell me when all this started?”

Xiao Ren sat by her side and told her the story.

Wasn’t it more than a month ago? That time, Qiao Tian Chang was seriously injured at White Mountain Village, wasn’t he?

Qiao Tian Chang was called back by Xiao Qi Feng soon after that. Besides, he had also suffered such a serious injury. After that, the people from the Westcoast seemed to have suddenly disappeared, only the smaller fry could be found but none of them were real threats.

“It seems that we have all become pieces on someone’s chessboard.” Qiao Tian Chang had spoken first while Ning Meng Yao was still thinking.

Ning Meng Yao stunned, she turned to him and exclaimed: “Tian Chang, you think so too?”

“Yes, I really can’t think of anything else other than this explanation.” Qiao Tian Chang nodded, frowning slightly.

He had not quite understood it before. Even if Xiao Qi Feng did all that to provoke Yao Yao, he did not need to be that drastic.

He had only such an idea in his mind only after listening to Xiao Ren. His explanation was that Xiao Qi Feng had cooperated with those people in order to divert their attention by seriously injuring Qiao Tian Chang.

He wanted to take their attention away from the things in Miaojiang. However, Qiao Tian Chang was just unsure whether or not Xiao Qi Feng knew about the things there.

Ning Meng Yao nodded: “I think so too. They want us to put all our attention on the Xiao Empire and Xiao Qi Feng. Then naturally we will not be able to pay attention to the things here. And it would be too late even if we found out that they had the things in their hands.”

The lethality of those things was too great. It would be a great disadvantage to them if those things were taken away by those people. But what could they do? Did they really have to destroy all those things?

“It seems that those people are determined to get the things hidden here.” Qiao Tian Chang said.

“Yeah, otherwise they wouldn’t muster such a large force.” Ning Meng Yao frowned. She was very displaced by those people’s actions.

“You are right, so what should we do now? We can’t just sit and wait.”

“Of course we can’t. Perhaps the reason why they stepped up their attack is because we angered that person before, maybe he already guessed that we are here now.” So he wanted to destroy this place as soon as possible. If that happened, then wouldn’t the things here all be in close reach?

Qiao Tian Chang choked on Ning Meng Yao’s playful expression. Since when did this girl become so playful?

“Very well. We really have to think of a plan if that’s the case. We can’t just sit here and be bullied.” Qiao Tian Chang looked at Ning Meng Yao helplessly and said in a funny way.

Ning Meng Yao nodded, they indeed should think of a perfect plan. They were not opponents to that man’s strength, if only brother-in-law and the rest were here with them.

Ning Meng Yao touched her chin. They could only defend at all costs now, but how about sending a surprise attack?

Ning Meng Yao told Qiao Tian Chang her idea.

Qiao Tian Chang listened to her, and thought about their chances carefully before he nodded: “This could be a plan.”
