1270 The Enemy's Plan

Wu Chengyue and Lin Qiao both stayed quiet, staring at Xiao Licheng, who was standing at the door. Under their gaze, the other wanted very much to turn around and run away. However, he did not dare to do that, as the two bosses didn't give him permission to leave. He had just ruined their sweet moment, so he might suffer a thunder strike at any moment.

Looking at Wu Chengyue's hand which was already raised, with a fist-sized lightning ball dazzling upon it, Xiao Licheng didn't have the courage to move even a finger.

"It's our second time being interrupted. But still, I didn't throw the lightning on your head. Are you touched?" Wu Chengyue said with a smile.

"N-no…" Xiao Licheng said.

Lin Qiao pushed Wu Chengyue away and said to Xiao Licheng, "Let me see them."

Finally, Xiao Licheng sighed with relief and carried the small suitcase as he walked further in.

He opened the case, with the space inside divided into three layers, containing three different types of guns. All three guns were small and portable. Besides each gun were about thirty special bullets.

Lin Qiao picked up a bullet and gave it a close look. After spending a short while sensing the vibe inside the bullet and its main components, she dropped it and picked up a gun. She weighed the gun with her hand and then put it back into the case. Based on the cold and hard texture of the gun and its weight, she figured out the level of the weapon. She was excited about trying those new bullets.

She put the suitcase into a small space, then looked at Xiao Licheng and asked, "Have those two batches of people arrived yet?"

Xiao Licheng nodded and said, "They were only about twenty miles away from Sea City Base last night. But, they didn't seem to make a move immediately."

Lin Qiao smiled and said, "They're waiting for tomorrow, when we'll be leaving. By that time, people will pay all their attention here and relax the guard over there. Tomorrow will be their best chance."

Both Xiao Licheng and Wu Chengyue had thought about that.

"Since they aren't taking any action, we will," Wu Chengyue smiled and said, "Let's see what Xiao Yunlong will do this time."

After he found that Si Kongchen had secretly sent two batches of people to Sea City Base and All Beings Base, he told Xiao Licheng to follow them and deliver the news to Xiao Yunlong, who was in Sea City Base. Xiao Yunlong's mission was to give those people a surprise attack tonight.

"It seems that Si Kongchen has secretly cultivated a lot of superpowered warriors. He's not gonna keep hiding those people. All that he sent out this time are at level five or six. Maybe he thinks your Sea City Base doesn't have that many strong fighters." Lin Qiao said with a sneer.

Si Kongchen hadn't been taking All Beings Base seriously. He probably believed that it was relying on Sea City Base for protection.

So, Si Kongchen had sent out about five-hundred people this time. One hundred of them were at level-six, while the others were all at level-five. Three among them were mysterious and powerful, possibly at level-seven.

Unexpectedly, Si Kongchen had such a strong, secret force under his command. He couldn't possibly have sent the entire secret force to Sea City Base, but the ones he sent out were at least thirty percent of that force.

"The hundreds of people are mostly at level five or six. There are also a few level-seven ones. I'm not in Sea City Base right now, so Si Kongchen probably thinks there's no one left in my base to fight this force of his. Even if there's someone to stop the three level-seven people, it would still be hard for my base to fight against the hundred level-six men. My base wouldn't survive this sudden attack, unless I gathered some hunter groups to defend my base in advance," said Wu Chengyue.

"He doesn't think you have so many level-six superpower possessors in your base. But, he didn't send out those people to start a war against your base. He has some other purpose," Lin Qiao said.

"What does he want?" Wu Chengyue asked her. He knew that Si Kongchen sent out those people for some kind of purpose, but didn't know what exactly it was. On hearing Lin Qiao's words, he figured that she was going to tell him about it.

Lin Qiao glanced outside the window, then turned back and said to him with a bland tone, "He has found out that your base isn't able to grow food, and that you now have a mysterious son. One of the two batches of people he sent out this time is aiming at finding out the details of the regular trading between Sea City Base and All Beings Base while the other batch is going for your son."

While speaking, she looked at Wu Chengyue in a meaningful way.

"Wait!" Wu Chengyue looked at her and said, "What do you mean by a mysterious son? Why is my son so mysterious?"

"Because they don't know who the boy's mother is," Lin Qiao said to him.

"Hah!" Xiao Licheng heard her and burst in laughter for some reason.

"How dare you laugh! I haven't made you pay yet for what you did just now! Wait for it!" Wu Chengyue squinted at Xiao Licheng, who immediately stopped laughing. But soon, the former adjusted his expression and erased his smile, "Are you sure that Si Kongchen is having his eyes on Teng now?"

"Yeah," Lin Qiao nodded and said, "That's what he said to that woman last night. He's gotten some kind of drug from a foreign base that can disable the powers of level-eight superpowered possessors. He has prepared to give the drug to that woman and let her use it on me in the underground realm. He does not plan to let me come back to the earth's surface."

"I can't believe Si Kongchen chose to take action at this point. I guess he does plan to make use of the current troublesome situation to get rid of you two. Isn't he worried about those underground creatures?" Xiao Licheng said with a slight frown.

Lin Qiao and Wu Chengyue were both level-eight powerful beings who could fight side by side with Si Kongchen against those underground creatures. Reasonably speaking, killing them would not do Si Kongchen any good under the current circumstances. Shouldn't he be working together with them at the moment?

Did Si Kongchen intend to fight against all underground creatures with his very own force?

"He has sent his people to Sea City Base, so I think not only Teng, but Ling Ling is also his target. He wants to threaten me with my kids, to make me fight those underground creatures for him. So of course, he'll try to hurt her during the underground mission, because If she accomplished the mission and came back safely, he'd have no energy left to control me," Wu Chengyue expressionlessly made his guess about Si Kongchen's plan.

"I guess he never thought that both the kids are with us now. I think what he wants to know about the details of the food trade between Sea City Base and All Beings Base more. He's found out that your base isn't able to grow food, so the fresh food served in the canteens in Sea City Base must have aroused his suspicion."
