335 The Yan Family’s Last Stake
“Let us go. The valuable things have been taken away!”
“Don’t hurt my Daddy!”
Their actions stunned Su Bai. He had just finished explaining, but he had to explain it again.
Any problem that could be solved with words was not a problem. Soon, this ordinary family agreed to let everyone temporarily hide.
At the same time, they also learned that the city was more chaotic than they had imagined.
Because of the Yadi family’s actions, the order of First City was completely broken. Almost 70% of the dwarven guards were controlled by the Yadi family.
“What about the other families and the king’s regular army?” Gao Zhilong frowned.
Theoretically speaking, the various forces of the dwarves were common to humans.
They were all jointly managed by the various powerful families and the regular army under the king’s control. There was no such thing as the family’s power far surpassing the regular army.
The middle-aged dwarf shook his head, “I don’t know.”
They were just commoners and did not know much about the higher-ups.
“Let’s not talk about that. What’s going on with Shen Yan?” Su Bai asked.
It was clearly a dispute between the dwarves and Shen Yan was actually involved in this. There were quite a lot of things behind this.
Gao Zhilong revealed everything about Shen Yan.
In the Royal City, Shen Yan’s family was a second-rate family. They were not the strongest, but they were not weak either.
There were a total of three Diamond-level Beastmasters in Shen Yan’s family, and over a hundred Platinum-level Beastmasters, not to mention Gold-level and Silver-level Beastmasters.
They were definitely a family that could control the situation in any place in the border city.
It was precisely such a family no doubt that only had one goal in getting involved in the matters of the dwarves.
That was to obtain huge benefits.
As long as the Yan family could help the Yadi family ascend to the throne, they would be able to obtain the support of the dwarves’ alchemical products and increase their status in the Royal City.
If the Yan family succeeded, they might even become a first-rate family!
If the Yadi family was in danger, and the Yan family was even more so.
Su Bai asked in a low tone, “What would happen if the Royal City knew about this?”
From a simple point of view, the Yan family had made a wrong move.
However, if the Yadi family succeeded in usurping the throne, the perspective would be completely different.
Even if the Yan family could not stay in the Royal City anymore, they could also secure a place in First City.
Not to mention, the humans had always attached great importance to the alchemy technology of the dwarves. Over the years, there had been many rumors that the Royal City wanted to repair the relationship with the dwarves.
There was no smoke without fire.
Gao Zhilong and the others in front of him were solid evidence. If it were not for the fact that they still had a connection, it would be impossible for human Alchemists to participate in the Alchemy Festival.
“We have to contact Zhang Yan and the others as soon as possible!” Gao Zhilong said with a serious expression. “As long as we return to the Royal City, we will be able to expose the Yan family’s true colors!”
However, the streets outside the window had many dwarven guards passing by during this period. With the current situation, not to mention looking for Zhang Yan and the others, even walking around was a problem.
But Su Bai’s performance had made him the savior in everyone’s eyes.
“No can do.” Su Bai spread his hands and chuckled. “I had exhausted my Beasts to escort all of you out.”
Hearing that, everyone’s expression darkened. They had no doubts about Su Bai’s lies.
Su Bai could take them with him, but not now. He had to appease them and avoid making the wrong choice.
Su Bai said, “But… I have a plan. I’ll go out and look for Zhang Yan and the others. You guys stay here for the time being. This is the only way.
Everyone present was an Alchemist, and their Beasts were not strong enough.
If they went out, they would die. It was better to stay here. At least they could hide for a while.
Gao Zhilong nodded and said, “Alright! I’ll leave it to you!”
Then, Su Bai asked Dream Wing to remove Wise Monkey’s illusion disguise, which shocked everyone.
They would never have thought Murong Xue, who had been following them, was actually a monkey in disguise!
“What’s this…” Gao Zhilong was speechless.
“I’ll explain this to you later. Just stay here and don’t run around,” said Su Bai.
After that, Su Bai summoned Dream Wing and went invisible. He returned to the street through the window.
It was at that moment, Su Bai felt a strange gaze again.
He looked around. Other than the buildings with closed doors and windows, there were also dwarven guards on the streets. He did not find the source of the gaze.
“He’s good at hiding.”
Su Bai withdrew his spiritual energy and returned to the square.
At that moment, the situation at the square made people break out in cold sweat. The corpses were scattered everywhere.
The dwarven guards showed no mercy to their own kind.
The Yadi Family was indeed capable. They could gather most of the families in First City and control more than half of the guards.
At the same time, Lu Le and the others stayed in the high-rise building and looked at the tragedy in the square.
Lu Le pondered for a long time and said, “What happened to the explosion just now? Captain Su will definitely be able to escape. The only problem is… he did not tell us where to meet up.”
Bing Qingqing and the others smiled bitterly.
They had also realized that crucial point. Su Bai only told them to hide, but he did not tell them where to meet up. The problem was how they were going to rendezvous.
During that period, Lu Le and the others had been looking down at the crowd, trying to find Su Bai, but to no avail.
However, a figure suddenly appeared behind them at that moment. They were not aware at all, which made Su Bai feel helpless.
“Attention!”
The voice startled everyone. They immediately summoned their Beasts and got ready to fight. When they saw it was Su Bai, they were relieved.
“My heart almost stopped. Captain, how did you find us?” Lu Le asked, patting his chest.
“Trying guessing.” Su Bai smiled.
Then a white figure came out of Lu Le’s clothes and returned to Su Bai’s shoulder.
Whitey had never left Lu Le’s side. Its goal was to help Su Bai regroup with Lu Le.
Ordinary Beastmasters might find it difficult to feel the subtle connection with their Beasts.
But for Su Bai, as long as it was not too far away, it was not difficult at all for him.
“What’s there to guess? Captain, what exactly happened?”
“It’s very simple…”
After Su Bai told them, everyone was shocked.
It was not easy for them to come to the capital of the dwarves.
In the end, they encountered such an unfortunate incident. The probability of everything happening was like buying a lottery ticket and winning!
“What should we do next?” asked Bing Qingqing. She had digested the information quickly and was ready to take action.
