Su Chen’s words resounded in Chief Steward Lao’s ears Eventually, he shook his head and sighed
“Chief Steward Lao, what do you think about this person?” A person asked froazed off in the distance as he said slowly, “He’s not simple at all”
“Definitely If he could escape fro’s hand alive, he must have some ability no matter what tactic he used”
Chief Steward Lao continued, “I’ve seen many people with ability before But someone who seems so reckless yet has planned every step with pinpoint precision and prepared sorare Xin Lai, have you ever thought that, apart from us, Su Chen has some other backup measure prepared?”
“Other backup measures?” The man called Xin Lai froze “You think that Su Chen had so else prepared?”
“That’s what I think is theClan once, that’s not such a big deal; what’s scary is that he th, and that would be disastrous” Chief Steward Lao squinted his eyes
“What other reserves could he possibly have?”
“Who knows But if he does, I hope that the Lian Clan isn’t the one to force it out”
“Chief Steward Lao ive him peace”
