“I’ve already sent people to investigate, but there are no results yet,” Wu Ming explained.
“Oh! Then tell me what’s the situation now?” The thin old man pointed at the head butler.
“Second Elder, many courtyards of our Wu family exploded. Moreover, many people were injured. No one is dead at the moment,” the head butler said hurriedly.
“Haven’t found the enemy yet?” Second Elder asked.
“No, I think they’ve probably run away long ago,” the head butler guessed.
“Run away? Hmph! Our Wu family’s defense is so tight. How can the enemy run away so easily? I think the possibility of a traitor is very high. Call the Third Butler over,” Second Elder ordered with full force.
“Yes,” the senior manager quickly answered and turned to look for the third butler.
Soon, the head butler led the Third Butler to the yard of the main mansion.
“Greetings to the patriarch and the elders.” Cold sweat rolled down the Third Elder’s forehead as he said anxiously. Boohoo… He was responsible for the safety of the Wu family. He couldn’t escape the blame now that such a thing happened! It’s over, he’s dead meat. The patriarch and the elders won’t let him go!
“Third Butler, tell me, did anyone suspicious enter and leave the Wu family today?” Second Elder raised his eyes slightly and asked lightly.
“Reporting to Second Elder, we didn’t find anyone suspicious,” the Third Butler quickly replied.
“Really? Not even a stranger? Huh?” Second Elder narrowed his eyes in disbelief.
“Ah! A few people came to the Wu family, but they were brought back by the second butler, so there’s nothing suspicious,” the third butler hurriedly explained. He also hoped that the stunning beauty would be rich, so he didn’t even report the matter of the door shattering. How could he treat Leng Ruoxue and the others as suspicious people! However, they were really strangers!
“Where are those people?” Second Elder grabbed the Third Butler’s collar and asked loudly.
“Second Butler arranged for them to stay in Peony Garden,” Third Butler reported hurriedly.
“Peony Garden? Who are they? Why did Second Butler arrange for them to stay there?” Second Elder said with a puzzled face. One had to know that only esteemed guests were qualified to stay in Peony Garden. Could it be that the person was from some aristocratic family?
“Who are those people?” Wu Ming asked in surprise. He actually knew nothing about the guests at home. Hmph! These people really didn’t take him seriously.
“Yes… Second Butler and I discovered a stunning beauty, so we specially brought her back to offer her to the patriarch. The patriarch and First Elder had been discussing something just now, so we didn’t have the time to report it,” Third Butler hurriedly explained, and didn’t forget to count his credit.
“You’re really good subordinates! The patriarch will definitely reward you.” The Second Elder looked at Wu Ming with a spurious smile and said mockingly.
“Uh! Damn it, who asked you to do such a thing!” Wu Ming pretended to be angry, and his face flushed red. However, he was not angry, but shy.
“Head Butler, I heard you say that Peony Garden is intact when I came in?” At this moment, First Elder, who had not spoken for a long time, asked.
“Yes, there were explosions in all the courtyards except Peony Garden,” the Head butler said honestly.
“Patriarch, that young lady is really a blessed person!” Third Butler hurriedly flattered when he heard this. Unfortunately, his flattery was not timely. He received several glares as soon as he finished speaking.
“Third Butler, do you have a brain? Don’t you think it’s suspicious that only Peony Garden is intact?” Second Elder asked angrily, exasperated at his failure to live up to expectations. Alas! He had always thought that Third Butler was smart and sharp, but he realized today that Third Butler was also a pig brain!
“Uh! What’s suspicious? That Miss is lucky!” the Third Butler asked foolishly.
“Alas!” The Second Elder sighed heavily and couldn’t be bothered with the Third Butler.
“Patriarch, let’s go see the lucky young lady that the Third Butler mentioned!” First Elder suggested.
“Okay.” Wu Ming nodded in agreement. However, he couldn’t help thinking in his heart, If it was really the stunning beauty that the Third Butler mentioned, would they still be staying in Peony Garden now? They would probably have run away long ago, right?
After speaking, the First Elder turned and walked at the front, while Wu Ming and the other elders followed closely behind. The head butler and the third butler followed behind them step by step.
When First Elder and the others arrived at Peony Garden, they happened to see Leng Ruoxue and the others sitting in the yard.
After seeing the stunning beauty mentioned by the three butlers, Wu Ming’s eyes immediately burst out with a terrifying glow. He didn’t expect the beauty they were talking about to be the Leng Ruoxue he missed so much. Uh! Since Leng Ruoxue was here, why hadn’t his subordinates returned yet? He couldn’t help thinking gloomily.
“Xue’er, looks like we have a guest,” the freak sitting beside Leng Ruoxue said calmly as he looked at the uninvited guest who appeared in front of them.
“Yes! Alas! These guests are really too rude. They actually barged in without knowing to get someone to report. What if they are bathing?” Leng Ruoxue complained.
“Miss, this is the territory of our Wu family. You are the guests,” Second Elder reminded her. His shrewd eyes kept looking at Leng Ruoxue and the others. Moreover, the more he looked, the more questions he had in his heart. This was because other than the few people sitting on the stone bench who were slightly stronger and were Mystic Monarchs, the others were actually elementary mystics. However, why could these people ignore his might? One had to know that he deliberately wanted to show them his strength when he spoke just now.
“So what? This might be the Wu family’s territory, but it’s mine and my subordinates staying here now. Therefore, even if you are the masters, you should inform them when you come in to disturb them. This is the most basic courtesy! Look at you, you’re so old. Don’t tell me you don’t even know this!” Leng Ruoxue said with a face full of disdain. Hmph! Damn old man actually wanted to use the might of a Mystic Sovereign to intimidate them. Unfortunately, he had miscalculated.
“What a sharp-tongued woman.. It seems like I underestimated you,” The Second Elder said with a very calm expression. However, he had long exploded in his heart because no one had dared to speak to him like this since he became the Second Elder of the Wu family!
