LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 543: "Hmph! Trying To Flee!?... Not Under my watch!"
Min Hong calculated that the dup would need at least about 2 hours to search the entire mansion even with the help of the two anthills they took over;
But judging from the haste that the Left grand Elder was insinuating that they leave, he was absolutely sure he wouldn't be able to even buy half an hour of time not to talk of two;
'So, you are giving us no choice but to move our plans forward unh?' Min Hong thought…
But just as he was about to initiate his next move; Kaboom! A massive explosion rocked the entire tribe with its shockwave being felt as far as Little Fei and Daniel who were investigating the main mansion;
"Eh?" The Left Grand Elder was stunned as his eyes narrowed into slit before staring at the Min Hong duo as he growled;
"What is going on here!?" He asked with a tone that was warning Min Hong to be very careful about his next words;
"What are you talking about!?" Min Hong barked back at him, stunning the Left Grand Elder;
"That was coming from the temporary residence you created for us, so I should be the one asking; What The Fuck Is Going On!?"
Min Hong reflected the accusations back on the Left grand Elder who abruptly found the situation a little stifling He knew he had not given any command for Min Hong's group to be attacked yet…
Furthermore, the residence that just exploded was truly the one Min Hong's group were staying in, and there was no way they will blow up their own house, and he was still thinking of other possible scenarios when the Right Grand Elder rushed into the floor;
"What is it!?"
The Left Grand Elder unintentionally raged at the Right Grand Elder who looked at Min Hong and Mao My for a bit signaling to the Left Grand Eder that this wasn't something that they could discuss in the presence of Min Hong;
[What is it?] The Left grand Elder asked via mental transmission;
[Something tripped the sensors of the main mansion's basement the same moment the explosion happened…] The Right Grand Elder responded via mental transmission;
[Did you find out who it was?]
[Not really…]
[Actually it was pretty strange because the sensors only tripped slightly which indicates that whoever or whatever is down there is either extremely little or has no substance to it…]
[Wait… That shadow Cheng and his partner didn't return to give report on their mission last night, right?]
[Yes commander… You don't think-?]
[It should be them, after all, all the humans are accounted for right here so it can't be them…]
[So, they were the ones who destroyed the human's residence…]
[I believe so… Perhaps, they are trying to use it as a diversion to slip into the mansion…]
[But the formation and the ancient manual is with you, so what would they be looking for at the basement?] The Right Grand Elder asked;
[I'm not sure, they can't tamper with the ritual going on down there, and I have what they want…]
[So what are they after?]
[I don't know… But I don't plan on finding out after it is too late… We are returning to the mansion now to investigate ourselves…]
The Left grand Elder added via mental transmission; a conversation which happened in less than three breaths; before he then looked towards Min Hong and revealed an unconvincing smile;
"I will have the Tribe Leader, Lady and Right go with you to your residence and investigate what happened, there is something I must do and I will join you guys later…"
He said and turned to leave as Min Hong cracked up his mind to find a reason to keep him here a little longer;
"Hmph! Trying to flee!?"
"Not under my watch!" Min Hong rebuffed as he flashed and appeared in front of the eft Grand Elder;
"We are all going together to go investigate what has happened at our residence today, otherwise, don't blame us for being ruthless!" Min Hong blurted as he released an aura of peak Nascent Soul Stage;
'Unh… I can only identify three of his Dao Nascent Souls!?' The Left Grand Elder was stunned by his findings…
He could clearly feel that Min Hong's aura had the power of an expert with at least 7 Nascent Souls, but shockingly to him, he could only detect three, and the three however were Daos that were dangerous to his nature; Force, Sword and Lightning;
But though he couldn't tell that the lightning was the Tribulation Lightning Dao, since any form of Lightning is dangerous against things with demonic nature, he wasn't prepared to find out in person;
"Tch… Know your place young man!"
"We invited you and your group in here under the impression that you are coming to help, do you think we cannot chase you out if we want to!?"
The moment he made that statement was the same time the rest of Min Hong's group returned from their investigation;
"Hmph! It's true, it's not like you all have made any progress since you have been here!"
The Right Grand Elder also tried to buy the window for the Left Grand Elder to go check out what was going on with the tripped sensors…
"Hmph! Sounds like an accused criminal trying to flee to me!"
Min Hong was unrelenting and it was already getting the atmosphere in the area very tense; "You think I would flee from the tribe I have put my blood and sweat into growing!?"
"Well, now that it is empty, it might be the right time to do so… But if you are sure you are not trying to flee, then go with us to investigate the cause of that explosion, then I will let it go afterwards…"
Min Hong continued as he prayed to his stars that the Left Grand Elder keeps refusing to back down so they can waste more time bickering with each other, but all that glitters aren't gold;
"Hu!" The Left Grand Elder let out a sharp sigh;
"Fine… But Right must go finish this task on my behalf…"
'Hmph, I don't know if you are intentionally trying to waste my time or you are just stupid, but eitherways you can't tell Right not to leave…' The Left Grand Elder thought to himself with a sneering snort…
"No way!"
"Unh!?" The Left Grand Elder was stunned silly...
