The Lord Ying spoke again, “It must be quitete at night for you right now. You’ve been in Aurous Hill for over fifteen hours; why haven’t you taken any action against the An family?” Willie replied, “I haven’t yet had the opportunity to familiarize myself with the surroundings of Aurous Hill…” <fn61f9> Newest update provided by f?ndnovel</fn61f9>
The Lord Ying pressed on, “Haven’t I already informed you? The An family resides in Wanliu Vi in Aurous Hill. All you need to do is head to Wanliu Vi in the dead of night and take care of them swiftly, so there are no lingering concerns. What’s soplicated about that?”
Willie quickly responded, “My lord, it may take my subordinates a bit longer to thoroughly understand the situation regarding the An family. If we move too hastily, we risk missing someone important if they’re not at Wanliu Vi during the attack.”
Lord Ying replied coldly, “Tonight, An Qishan, his wife, and their three sons and one daughter are all at Wanliu Vi! This is your best opportunity! It’s already two in the morning where you are. If you leave now, you’ll still have time to deal with the An family before dawn!”
Willie replied respectfully, “My lord, I still need to investigate Bruce Wade and the An family’s connections. We haven’t uncovered any leads on Lydia (Ava) (Charlie’s mom) and her son yet. If we strike against the An family now, that boy might be too scared to show himself…” Lord Ying snorted coldly in response. <h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
“Your task is simply to eliminate An Qishan and his family. The boy with the surname Wade will inevitably show up!”
Willie, taken aback, asked, “My lord, may I inquire how you are so certain?”
The Lord responded, “An Qishan has determined the session of the An family’s assets. If something were to happen to him and his children, the assets would be split. Half would go to the three sons and one daughter, and the other half to Lydia (Ava) (Charlie’s mom) and her son. This means that if they are gone, that boy will be the heir to a significant portion of the An family’s wealth. As long as he is alive, he won’t be able to resist the allure of that inheritance and will certainlye forward to im it, making him an easy target for you!”
With that, Lord Ying added, “Time is of the essence. You must leave immediately!”
Willie’s heart raced.
He had been aware that his primary mission in Aurous Hill was to eliminate the An family, but he had not anticipated discovering two significant opportunities upon his arrival.
He still hoped to uncover more treasures following Zhang Ermao (Cade)’s leads, which made him reluctant to act against the An family right away.
Willie understood that the An family ranked among the top three families globally, and attacking them would surely provoke a massive international uproar.
Moreover, he realized that if the An family were to be eliminated in Huaxia, the authorities would undoubtedly pursue a thorough investigation. This would likely result in many skilled individuals being dispatched to Aurous Hill to search for clues. In such a scenario, his operations in Aurous Hill would be severely limited.
There was even a real possibility that he would be targeted byw enforcement globally aftermitting such an act. If that happened, how would he have the chance to delve deeper into Zhang Ermao (Cade)’s connections?
After all, Zhang Ermao (Cade) was not a pivotal figure in this conflict; eliminating him wouldn’t lead to identifying his family. This task required cunning, not brute force. Thus, the optimal strategy would be to request a few more days from Lord Ying to explore Zhang Ermao (Cade)’s connections thoroughly before addressing the An family without distractions!
Just as he was wavering, unsure of how to convey his hesitation to Lord Ying, the Lord’s voice cut sharply through the air. “Willie, since you arrived in Aurous Hill, you’ve been dragging your feet. You still haven’t provided me with a clear answer. Do you have divided loyalties regarding Poqing?”
Willie felt a chill run down his spine, as if countless needles were piercing his skin. He could only respond sincerely and with trepidation, “My lord, you have misunderstood. I am loyal to Po Qinghui (Benn); I would never consider betrayal… It’s just… I have some matters to report to you.”
Lord Ying replied coldly, “Speak!”
Willie took a moment to gather his thoughts, then gritted his teeth and said, “My lord, I discovered a magical weapon during my time in Aurous Hill today!”<h3 ss="has-text-align-center wp-block-heading" id="chapter-list"><strong></strong>
