“They will.”
Yue Wuhen’s voice contained confidence akin to a lunar eclipse: “Even though Xing Wuji is quiet, he is more astute than anyone else.”
With the Golden Crow family’s main force deployed elsewhere, resulting in the northern region of the Tian Shu Continent being vulnerable, how could he not be aware of that?
He must also be holding meetings, and he must also be planning how to get a share of the profits.
However, unlike us, he will not take the initiative. He will wait—wait for us to make a move first, wait for us to have a direct confrontation with the Golden Crow family, and then interfere under the pretext of ‘keeping the balance,’ and rightfully take what he wants.
The elders within the hall began to converse in low voices; some nodded, some frowned, and some remained doubtful.
Yue Wuchen’s gaze fell on Yue Wuhen: “Sister, what should we do?”
Yue Wuhen stood up, his silver-white robe glistening like a flowing glacier under the moonlight.
He walked to the window at the side of the main hall, gazing at the region shrouded in silvery moonlight outside, his voice calm and deep: “Don’t move yet. The Golden Crow Clan hasn’t completely left the Tian Shu Continent; their main force is still being transferred to the Seven Star Continent in stages.”
“As soon as the last of their elite troops leave, we will immediately move.”
“What’s the purpose?” Yue Wuchen urged.
“Three cities in the Northern Territory”.
Yue Wuhen’s voice remained calm, “The Golden Crow family has three resource-rich cities in the northern region of the Tian Shu Continent, where they produce Heavenly Crystal Stones and Divine Source Liquid, which are one of the most important resources for the Golden Crow family.”
If they succeeded in capturing those three cities, the foundation of the Golden Crow family in the Tian Shu Continent would be shaken by 30%.
Even if they discovered countless relics and treasures in the Seven Star Continent, losing these three cities would still be a huge loss.
The white-haired elder pondered for a moment, then slowly nodded: “The defense forces of the three cities in the Northern Region are indeed not strong. The most elite troops have been transferred to the Seven Star Continent, and all that remains are a few ordinary guards.”
If we concentrate the elite Silvermoon Guard troops, we can indeed capture it in a short time.
“Then, it’s decided.”
Yue Wuhen turned around, his silver-white gaze sweeping across everyone present. “From now on, no one is allowed to leak any information.”
“Yue Wuchen, you are responsible for mobilizing the Silver Moon Guards Elite Troop and having them wait. Once the last group of Golden Crow Clan elites leave, act immediately.”
“Yes.” Yue Wuchen nodded in agreement.
“Besides,”
Yue Wuhen’s voice was cold, “If the Chenxing family sends someone to investigate, just say that the Yinyue family is very angry about the Yaoguanglu incident and is considering how to hold the Jinwu family accountable.”
Let them think we just want an explanation, not that we’re going to use a knife.
The elders in the hall nodded in agreement, their eyes sparkling with a mixture of excitement and ambition.
Yue Wuhen sat back on the white jade chair, his silver-white gaze piercing through the main hall door, past the silver-white moonlight, and fixed on the golden light radiating from the territory of the Golden Crow Clan in the distance.
The corners of his mouth curved in an extremely subtle arc, like the first ripples spreading across the surface of a lake under the moonlight.
Golden Crow Family, you have touched things that you should not touch. Now, it’s time for you to pay the price.
Meanwhile, in the Chenxing family territory.
In stark contrast to the golden light of the Golden Crow Clan and the silvery white light of the Silver Moon Clan, the Starry Sky Clan’s territory was shrouded in deep and dark starlight.
The entire region seemed to be shrouded in endless galaxies, and the buildings were made of a kind of star rock with a dark blue luster, which reflected a deep texture like the night sky under the starlight.
Faint silver starlight, like fine grains of sand, scattered across every inch of the ground, shrouding the entire region in a dreamlike glow.
The main hall of the Chenxing family looked more like a fortress shrouded in starlight than a palace.
The dome of the main hall was carved from a single piece of starstone, with hundreds of small starstones embedded on its surface. These star stones slowly rotated in the dark blue light, like a mini starry sky gently rotating above the dome.
The twelve core elders of the Chenxing family sat in the main hall, their faces illuminated by starlight, twinkling like stars in the night sky.
Their auras were mostly restrained and deep, with no excessive pressure being released, but that faint starlight-like presence was more elusive than a striking force.
