Chapter 410 - Loyalty Puppet

"Without my help, you won't be able to take Luoyang City down by yourself, so you can only turn around and come back to me for help." Ling Xiao leaned back against the chair, with a sly smile on his face, as if he was already holding onto Wang Yuanba tightly.

Wang Yuanba swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, and his body also gradually stiffened.

So it turned out that it was impossible for him to have any presumptuous thoughts in front of Ling Xiao, because Ling Xiao had long seen through him.

All of a sudden, the atmosphere in the room became extremely anxious, as if even the air itself had become frozen.

"Clan Head Wang, I believe you should still remember what I told you in the beginning." Ling Xiao crossed his legs and leisurely said.

The cold sweat on Wang Yuanba's forehead dripped down like soybeans, and then flowed down along his cheek and fell onto the ground.

"Yes, I remember all of them. I dare not forget them." Wang Yuanba nodded his head repeatedly in agreement.

"Then what does Clan Head Wang usually do to people who are not loyal?" Ling Xiao said indifferently.

Wang Yuanba's body shook, and said in a trembling voice, "Naturally, it's to be severely punished."

"Oh? This group would like to know how Clan Head Wang dealt with it. " Ling Xiao continued to ask.

Wang Yuanba once again swallowed his saliva, and whispered: "Killing a chicken to make an example of a monkey, to make an example of others."

"Mmm, that makes sense. Then when the time comes, I will do the same. Will that be a problem?" Ling Xiao laughed faintly.

How could Wang Yuanba dare to reject? He shook his head and said, "Of course there's no problem, it's all up to Sect Leader Ling."

Ling Xiao stood up and walked to Wang Yuanba's side, then lightly patted his shoulder and said, "I'm not talking about you, why are you so nervous? You're talking about those disobedient people, their methods must be ruthless, if not for yourself, you definitely cannot let them go easily, if not the one who will be at a disadvantage will be yourself."

"Alright, it's getting late. I'm tired. Goodbye." With that, Ling Xiao pushed open the door, looked up at the bright moonlight and yawned, then left.

The door was not closed, and the night cold wind blew in. Wang Yuanba felt a burst of coldness on his face, this was because the sweat that had not completely dried up was being blown by the night cold wind, causing people's skin to become cold.

It was also at this time that Wang Yuanba, who had been in a state of nervousness, finally relaxed and regained his clarity of mind.

After taking a few deep breaths, Wang Yuanba leaned against the chair, closed his eyes and frowned.

Wang Yuanba thought that he was going to die here.

After a long while, Wang Yuanba got up and issued a secret order that all the assassins that were hiding in the darkness should be transferred back to the mansion.

Inside Wang Yuanba's study, other than Wang Yuanba, there were three other black-clothed men wearing masks. They were currently standing in a straight line and stood in a uniform.

"Patriarch, why did you suddenly call us back? We've already done all the preparations and are waiting for our target to appear." one of them asked, puzzled.

After Wang Yuanba heard this, the three of them became even more confused.

After a long while, Wang Yuanba finally said slowly: "I originally thought that I could play some tricks to get rid of this person, but later on I realized that I was overthinking it."

Patriarch, although we are not the strongest assassins in the Luoyang City, but we have more people on our side, so even if we were to take turns fighting, we can definitely kill the target. You have to know that countless of people have died in our hands, and there are also many experts among them, so the one that we are facing is just a young man. The man continued.

"That's right, we brothers have spent a lot of effort to lay down every single point and form the perfect killing array. Even if the strongest family in Luoyang City meets us, they would still die." another agreed.

Wang Yuanba squinted his eyes slightly, and said with a cold voice: "I do not need you all to tell me, I am also clear on the price I paid for this assassination attempt, and there are even many brothers who paid blood and lives for it, just to cover up your actions."

"Patriarch, please withdraw the secret order and let us continue." The masked man volunteered as he cupped his fists and said.

After Wang Yuanba looked out of the window and took a deep breath, he turned around to look at the three of them, and said with a resolute expression: "I have decided, continue to carry out the order, and get all the brothers hiding in the darkness to come back. You guys are in charge of taking care of the number of people, not one of them is missing, all of you come back."

Hearing this, the masked man said in surprise, "Leader, you are serious. This is our only chance. If we give it up, we won't be able to carry it out."

"I have made up my mind. All of you, listen to my orders and carry them out." Wang Yuanba waved his hand, then walked over to the window and sighed, then lightly said: "You all have never faced that person head on, it's truly too terrifying. In front of that person, all of the thoughts in my heart were completely seen through by him, I don't even have a single secret to tell you."

"It's best to be honest when facing such people." After Wang Yuanba finished, he waved his hands, signalling for his subordinates to leave.

The three masked men looked at each other, then bowed to Wang Yuanba, and left without saying anything else.

These three were's trusted aides that he had cultivated with great effort. Naturally, he believed in them and would definitely not act rashly.

After the three of them left, Wang Yuanba felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted, and let out a long sigh.

On the second day, Wang Yuanba led his men to continue to win over the hearts of the people. Right now, he had to make the enemy obey him.

Ling Xiao still stayed in the Prince Mansion, and would only go out occasionally. However, Ling Xiao was the one who was the clearest about the situation in the Luoyang City the most, because he had an intelligence network that concealed itself in the darkness to continuously gather all kinds of information for him.

Even Wang Yuanba's little movements could not escape Ling Xiao's eyes and ears.

Wang Yuanba followed Ling Xiao's suggestion and began to set an example by killing. He made a ruthless move, and in a single day, he dealt with the four patriarchs and directly chose the new Patriarch. Needless to say, the new Patriarch was naturally Wang Yuanba's puppet.

However, just as Ling Xiao had said, not everyone was taking it lying down. At the same time that he attacked, he incited even more people's intent of resistance.

In the end, Wang Yuanba could only seek help from Ling Xiao once again.

Looking at Wang Yuanba in front of him, Ling Xiao leisurely spoke: "Do you know why I spared no effort to help you?"

Wang Yuanba lowered his head, gritted his teeth, and said: "Because the Sect Leader Ling had helped me, which is equivalent to helping himself."

Hearing that, Ling Xiao laughed out loud, and clapped: "Alright, this is exactly what I want to hear, you have finally figured it out."
