Chapter 301: First Update
Gui San and Gui Si circled around and saw a group of people standing inside the room, among them were Heir Zong and Ju Nanyi whom they recognized. Gui San pulled Gui Si aside, "What’s happening?"
Gui Si felt that the Young Master’s intention for them to kill had already been very clear. Dropping two Ghost Shadows among these people would likely result in most of them dead. Even if it didn’t kill Zong Yunqian, alongside their group, it would still cost Zong Yunqian dearly.
However, Gui San disagreed. Having followed Elder Can for a long time, even though he was straightforward, he wasn’t without some prudence. Halfway to death was not without progress. The Young Master was not a man who rashly resorted to violence; at a glance, it was highly probable that he didn’t intend for them to strike directly.
"Hold on, the Young Master doesn’t agree with us escalating the situation. Killing people in broad daylight is too conspicuous. Our deaths are trivial, but if the Young Master is exposed, that would be serious."
Gui Si dared not move. He still remembered the appearance of Gui San being kicked half to death by the Young Master, and he shivered.
"So, what do we do?" Gui Si ultimately listened to Gui San.
"For now, let’s stick to what we’re good at while Ju Nanyi is still here, how about that?" Gui San turned to ask Gui Si. He mainly thought that the Young Master’s mind was hard to fathom. If they made a wrong move, it could cost them dearly, so it seemed safest to stick to what they knew.
Gui Si nodded. The Young Master had given a signal, they couldn’t just do nothing.
The two made a quick decision, swiftly ducked down, and Gui Si quickly pulled a black snuff bottle from his sleeve, which was as small as a palm and dark as ink.
