321 Four Great Factions of Power, Cold Moon Palace (2/2)
The girl called Cai Cai reacted quickly and immediately contacted them. She suggested that they should change their plans, because unfortunately for them, Blood River Sect, which was an easy target, was meant for Cold Moon Palace!
Thunderous Battle had gone ahead and snatched what belonged to Cold Moon Palace, but Cai Cai was not someone who was stupid. She knew that her boyfriend's only loss had been due to Happy, who was now very famous, and she immediately came to the conclusion that the originally easy target had become the most difficult target.
Cai Cai's intentions were very clear. She wanted to switch resource points with Class One Hall.
It might have been because his bald image made him not as good-looking as the other two men beside him, or perhaps there was a different profound meaning behind her actions, but whatever the reason was, it had led to the matter then.
”Since Cold Moon Palace is so strong, why should you be afraid of those thieves?” Even though he was wary of Lu Mingyue, when it came to Class One Hall's benefits, Monk with Thick Eyebrows did not want to switch resource points with Cold Moon Palace.
Cai Cai looked at him askance.
”Cold Moon Palace naturally has not developed as much as Class One Hall. If you have the ability to do so, go.”
The two stood in confrontation with each other.
On the side, the cold middle-aged man continued to sip his tea. He showed no intention to join the quarrel.
The young man with the green foxtail was slightly impatient, however. He raised his hand and interrupted the duo's quarrel.
”Enough. Please calm down, both of you. Let me say this. Since Thunderous Battle has brought his people over, it's clear that his goal is the same as ours. His target are the rich resources of Shennongjia, and he came prepared. His ambitions and vision are greater than ours when we first came here. His people might not be weaker than ours.”
When the cold middle-aged man heard those words, his expression changed slightly. Then, he put on a faint smile.
Even though he had not said anything, the other three did not miss his reaction. Monk with Thick Eyebrows immediately noticed it, and his expression darkened. ”Blue as Water,” he said in displeasure, ”I know that your sect has quite a good relationship with Happy and his group, but the distribution of resources this time affects the four sects' benefits…”
”I never wanted to join this from the start. You only dragged me into this when you saw that I occupied a mine…” Blue as Water answered in a very calm manner. He sounded very stern.
”You're really troublesome.” The young man with the green foxtail spread his hands with a resigned expression.
”All of you know that if Happy joins, he'll meet us sooner or later. Even if we can't solve the matter now, we'll have to solve it later. Why don't we just split up a portion of the resources for him.”
”You must be joking! Then are we supposed to hand over a portion of the resources whenever we meet someone who is rather famous in the future too? Are we trying to strengthen our sects or are we performing charity now?! Towering Palace, you're handling this matter too casually. How could your people send someone who is immature to be in charge of this side…”
Monk with Thick Eyebrows rolled his eyes. He seemed to be very angry.
The person from Towering Palace did not seem to mind the monk's appraisal of him. He continued to smile while saying, ”So what? Chivalry Sect has a good relationship with Happy, and Thunderous Battle has already made full preparations on his side. What can you do? Seize the mines from his hands? I'm saying that we should give up on the mines and redistribute the resources.”
He cast a glance at Blue as Water, who had said nothing, and Monk with Thick Eyebrows instantly found himself at a loss.
This time, Cai Cai sneered coldly.
”Hmph! Don't be too naive. We might have our plans, but how can you know whether Happy will be willing to work with us? How can you be certain that Thunderous Battle and his group only came for that one crystal mine? Will they be willing to give up on Shennongjia's herbs and metal mines?”
There was quiet for a time.
”Happy has money and people on his side right now, and he is very ambitious! Since he sent his people over here without even notifying Chivalry Sect, are you certain that he doesn't want to monopolize all of Shennongjia?”
The whole room instantly fell silent. Only Cai Cai's voice alone could be heard.
