Chapter 314 - The Storm Is Coming” (1/2)
Proofread by Claire.KK
In an old mansion of the Forbidden City
Bang! Bang! Bang!
In a closed room, there were violent sounds of smashing objects and angry curses ringing from time to time.
The two waiters outside the room were shivering and frightened. After they received the latest news from the front line, the room seemed to be in a terrible earthquake.
“Of the three thousand elite practitioners, only a few hundred are left alive? It’s a bunch of rubbish! ”
“Du Xingchuan should be killed!”
“Who can tell me how the target intercepted a Ziying Battleship and destroyed all our battleships?”
“Six new Ziying Battleships worth 200,000 gold coins in total, which are rare treasures that couldn’t even be bought with money. But now… two were damaged and four were destroyed! Who can afford the cost? ”
“Damn it!”
In the room, the rich young men who worked as the deputies roared angrily. They were deeply stimulated by the news just received and completely disregarded their manners.
On the ground, there scattered broken tea cups, tables and chairs and some mess articles.
The bright candlelight flicked, its light shined on people’s gloomy face, making them look particularly ferocious.
A well prepared action across Mist City and the Forbidden City was equipped with tremendous power and materials, but eventually
Failed!
A teenager made them failed!
Totally!
Who could accept this reality?
“Rubbish! A bunch of trash! When Du Xingchuan comes back, I will kill him first! ”
They continued scolding to vent the feelings of suffocation, doubt and resentment.
However, Chi Cangmei never uttered a word from the beginning to the end. She sat there alone wordless. She wore indifference in her clear and fierce face. No one could be able to know her emotion.
She sat there like a sculpture, with no response to the angry swearing.
For a timeless time, those angry voices subsided. They were tired of scolding and sat down depressed.
“No more scolding?”
Chi Cangmei, who was silent, finally uttered. She looked up and scanned all around with disdain in her eyes.
Those deputies were all uneasy at her stare and did not dare to make eye contact with Chi Cangmei.
“Even if the forces sent out are useless, they have fought for the task. Their death bring them honor, but you…”
Chi Cangmei coldly said, “Maybe you’re the real waste!”
Real Waste!
Being humiliated directly, those deputies felt a stir in their minds, but no one dared to refute.
“See, you don’t even deny. What’s the use of you?”
Chi Cangmei’s tune became calm, but her words turned ironic. “It’s also my fault. Why I made you as assistants at the beginning? Maybe it also showed that I was just a fool without wisdom?”
The more she said that, the more uncomfortable those deputies were. Their faces were stiff and embarrassed.
“Princess Mei, although this action failed, the target has not yet entered the Forbidden City. We still have chances!”
Finally, someone couldn’t bear the dull atmosphere in the room. He took a deep breath and claimed, “I’m willing to go to the front to catch and kill the target in person!”
“Yes, I’d like to go together!”
Others agreed immediately to show their loyalty.
However, Chi Cangmei was indifferent. She looked at those people with a pity, “Are you sure?”
“Of course!”
The deputies did not hesitate to speak.
Chi Cangmei chuckled because of thinking about something and asked, “I should ask you first that who can guarantee to kill the target with his own strength? You’d better not rush to answer me. Think about this seriously!”
The deputies looked sluggish. All of a sudden they were speechless.
These days, they had been paying attention to the front line actions. How didn’t they know that the target to be dealt with this time was an abnormal young monster?
Even six Ziying Battleships and three thousand elite practitioners were all defeated by the target. How could they possibly win him if they went to fight in person?
The reason why they were shouting to go to the front line before was because they were humiliated by Chi Cangmei’s words and tried to prove themselves impulsively.
To be honest, they might escape faster than the rabbit when they faced the target.
Seeing this, Chi Cangmei looked indifferent and cold. She got up slowly and said, “There is no celebration banquet, everyone. Do something useful then!”
Then she turned around, pushed the door open and left.
It seemed that there was no threat in her words, but the deputies’ faces suddenly changed and they were out of their wits.
They all knew that Chi Cangmei was really angry at present! The consequences were really serious!
