Lyca immediately went back underground after Lord Olfan left. Then she immediately told everyone about her plan for the upcoming attack. After all, those people will not give up just after losing about forty men.
"So, you wanted us to capture them instead? Why?" Ronan asked. Isn't it better to kill them?
"So we can return them and demand for payment." Lyca wasn't good in any business. But she was good at extorting someone! Since that woman wanted to hurt her then why not ask her for some extra cash before killing her? Lyca could definitely kill that woman and her cohorts alone! She doesn't need to kill them near her territory. When she saw Ronan's confused look, Lyca added, "For catching rats."
While Lyca was enjoying herself with her peculiar plans of retaliation, the other side wasn't really calm at all. The rumors that Matriarch Chu's people died from catching rats are already on the streets. But this wasn't the thing that made the matriarch also passed out in anger. It was because people actually started mocking her and her family. They even receive a few calls from the families that didn't like them, mocking them for being so weak!
Some of these people were also members of the council. So, they are aware of this plan. And while some of them showed some compassion and sympathy, some of them really laughed and mocked the matriarch for sending weak people to deal with them. In the first place, the number of Shen Qui's forces is already superior to theirs. How could the matriarch just send her people without even consulting them?
Of course, these people were unaware of the matriarch's deal with Lord Olfan. If they do, they would surely curse the matriarch for trying to fool them.
"That— She is asking fourteen million?" The matriarch's hand trembled. She just calmed down from her initial shock only to hear Lyca's message, asking her for money for the cooperation! What kind of madness is this? The matriarch turned so red, she felt like she was about to burst from too much anger. "That woman is clearly extorting money from us! She even dares to threaten us to reveal the video? Then let her reveal it! Let her do it! Does she think I am scared of her? I am not scared of someone like her! I will kill that woman! I will— "
"Matriarch calm down…. Hey, you! Have some water first. Have some water. You need to calm down. You can't your anger consume you. We needed a plan." The woman who spoke was Matriarch Chu's eldest daughter and the next clan head, Chu Yuyan. She stroke her mother's back, her gaze extremely gentle. "Mother, why don't you just let me handle this? You can relax, I will work with Lord Olfan. I will personally capture that woman and bring her to you so you can punish her."
"Olfan is no longer answering my calls! That man must have seen something! Maybe he is already working with Q! Yuyan! What are we going to do? If Olfan will work with that woman, then we are finished! The forces that we have is not even enough to fight with Q alone! How could we fight the both of them at the same time?"
"Mother, you can rest assured. I will talk to the Lord personally to solve this matter. Surely, we can offer him some other benefits." Chu Yuyan said a different glint flashed in her eyes as she thought of Lord Olfan's face."Moreover, did you forget that we still have another hidden ace? Once we get that person to help us destroy this Xi, then we will definitely win!" Chu Yuyan started beaming.
"Hmph!" The Matriarch shorted. It's not like she does have any other choice. Right now, she needed to lower her head and send her daughter who clearly liked that man, for negotiations. "That woman will definitely suffer in my hands! I will skin her alive and feed her flesh to the dogs! While she was still alive!" The Matriarch could only clench her fist as she tried to calm herself.
"As always, mother is really the scariest woman in this region. Now, for that compensation…." Chu Yuyan immediately suggested that they pay that woman what she wanted and pretend to bow their heads. That payment should be enough as an apology. "Let's also send her some jewelry, not the expensive ones of course." The Chu family had a lot of jewelry shops around the area. Aside from this, they also have some mines in the northern part of the Xu Country. "Maybe some rare gems would do as well." Satisfied at her own suggestions, Chu Yuyan started celebrating inwardly.
Sadly, this conversation was interrupted when one of their men suddenly barged into the room.
"Madame, young miss… something happened! There is— There is a— "
"Speak! What happened?" Chu Yuyan hissed, irritated.
"The stores… four of the stores were robbed at the same time!"
"What? What about the diamonds?" Matriarch Chu stood up and immediately asked about the diamonds. Each store had its own special storage and some of them are storing diamonds and other precious gems.
"All taken… moreover the— "
The man's words were interrupted when another man arrived and announced that another two stores were robbed. Almost immediately Matriarch Chu paled as she sat on her chair, her hands that already stopped shaking started shaking once again. This time, she could no longer stop it. Six stores… Six stores…. The number of stores echoed inside her head as her brain silently calculated their possible losses.
"What stores are we talking about?" the still calm Chu Yuyan asked, frowning.
"That two biggest and the four smallest."
The words hung in the air for a few minutes before the silence was interrupted by Matriarch Chu's shrieking voice. "This should be that woman's retaliation! Ahhhh! I will kill that woman! Ahhhhhh!"
"Mother calm down! Calm down! Please calm down!" Chu Yuyan said as she instructed the other two men to leave them.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
