Chapter 340: Schemes
Meanwhile, at the Yu Residence in Milin Prefecture…
"Family Head, Lord Munian said that the Li Family isn't making any moves and that he's been waiting nearby for more than half a day already... so he's wondering if he could withdraw for the time being..."
Yu Xiaogui's expression darkened as he crumpled the letter in his hand in anger and cursed, "That useless fool!"
The attendant who had brought the report immediately quaked with fear and quickly pressed his forehead to the ground, not daring to meet Yu Xiaogui's fiery gaze.
Through gritted teeth, Yu Xiaogui continued ranting, his voice laced with disdain.
"I told him to act according to the plan, yet he's acting like a coward instead! He took so many dharma artifacts with him and killed randomly, but dawdles around on Li Family's territory?! Does he think the Li Family is foolish?!" he roared.
His voice was laced with suppressed anger as he continued through clenched teeth, "It took us great effort to set up this situation, and now he's screwing it up! Li Yuanjiao and Li Yuanping are no fools, they've likely detected that something is amiss!"
Yu Mugao, in his elegant white robe, stood at the side in a composed demeanor. He played with his fan and said calmly, "Please calm your anger, Father. Many in our family are inept; such mishaps are to be expected. It would be a surprise to me if we actually succeeded."
Having ruled for many years, Yu Mugao knew well the caliber of individuals within their own family. His anger had long been turned into disappointment, and from consequent disappointment to resignation.
