"I still have judgnt," Sui Yi said indifferently, sliding the Demon Que into its sword sheath.
She didn’t ntion that the complete geographical coordinates received here from Xiao Xianting did not match those obtained from Pu Qinghan.
Xiao Xianting: 34°55′ 116°35′.
Pu Qinghan had only a separate half of 37°28′.
Previously, they had thought Pu Qinghan, in fact, seed certain that what he rembered was East Longitude 37°28′, but it completely didn’t line up with the information provided by Xiao Xianting here.
Which side had rembered incorrectly, or was it lies?
Considering the suspicion of lying, Sui Yi didn’t count it as an option, so was it a mory error?
With doubts in her heart, Sui Yi asked with a calm exterior, "You and they have already obtained the coordinates, so what more can we people do for you?"
Yue Beiqing sighed lightly, "They want to silence by death, we must protect, at least among those people inside, a significant number need to survive. That’s the fundantal difference..."
"But also a significant number need to die..." Sui Yi looked at her, and Yue Beiqing suddenly found the eyes of the person before her starkly clear and bright, increasingly cold and dazzling...
As if crafted from splendid colored glaze.
Gazing into such eyes, it seed as if any lie would beco a sin, or a kind of blasphemy.
Moreover, Yue Beiqing had no need to lie, so she simply smiled slightly, "Yes."
By using the other party’s hand to eliminate those who betrayed the Nation, it would save face for the Nation publicly, and also avoid exposing more...
Although this was the right perspective for the bigger picture, it was also extrely cold, that indifference toward life, barely concealed.
Sui Yi turned her face away, her gaze sweeping over the vicinity... Although the streets were bustling with activity, in this villa area... the people had all been cleared out, and the sniper rifles used by each party were all equipped with silencers; even if the floor-to-ceiling windows shattered or sothing else happened, it would simply be the nearby few households that heard clearly, having no real impact on the animated streets opposite...
Such "no impact" clearly spoke volus about the considerations and designs of the officials and enemies behind the scenes.
Sui Yi confird that the officials representing Yue Beiqing had planned from the start to confine the two groups of people, steadfastly refusing to let anyone leave before the matter was completely resolved, no matter the pedigrees, origins, or the importance of those people here...
In response, she just carried the Demon Que and left.
"Then I’ll trouble your people to properly protect the Rongwei Armor inside this house—if you haven’t found that weapon, the other party might be driven to desperation,"
Having said her piece, Sui Yi left, but it caused Yue Beiqing’s eyelids to twitch. It sounded as though Sui Yi ant they wouldn’t find the weapon... as if neither side would find it.
Could it be that the coordinates were wrong?
Being extrely cautious, Yue Beiqing’s mind shifted quickly as she reached out to her contacts...
On the other hand, among the people in the villa, there were a few who genuinely wanted to stay, yet no one spoke up about leaving, perhaps understanding the officials’ determination, or knowing that once they left here, they wouldn’t have such powerful military force to protect them...
Just like Sui Yi, who ca in with a sword...
"Master, please accept my knees," Hamr leaped over the couch to co in front of Sui Yi, hands clasped in respect...
Other Imperial Guards: "... Where’s the dignity?"
Fortunately, there were no casualties. Sui Yi’s gaze swept over these people and then lowered her eyes. None of these individuals were simple, but the weakest among them, Pu Qinghan, turned out to be the most important...
The daylight attack had passed in a blink, and the broken floor-to-ceiling windows and damaged furniture were quickly repaired by soone who ca to fix them...
Gong Jiu and others felt that this scene was truly ironic, as if they had beco the prey in captivity, specifically to attract hunters...
But there were those with guilty consciences as well.
Gong Jiu glanced at Li Cuiyu, visibly frightened and evasive, then looked at Cao Ling and the Old Master, Zhuang Ziliu with their calm deanor, and then at Su Zimu and Pu Qinghan, who were composed solely based on their inner cultivation and mindset... and then at Lin Junyun, Fu Ling, Zhong Buli—the won...
Alas, no matter how one looked, everyone seed unfathomable.
After the dayti ambush, dinner felt particularly tense as if everyone present had beco much quieter... only Zhuang Ziliu occasionally initiated conversation with Sui Yi...
It looked as though the two were quite familiar, yet their tone and attitude were as if they were mortal enemies...
Finally, night fell again...
This ti almost every room was brightly lit...
"I’ve decided, no sleeping tonight..." Gong Jiu said with wide eyes, hugging a cushion.
