Chapter 1262 - 1261 Cunning as a Demon
"I’ve been running around the various major families, and during the chaos, I planted listening devices in many of them!" Su Yang chuckled, "You should have investigated my identity and know that I retired from the military, right? The first skill I learned in the army was eavesdropping and surveillance. This morning, when you were persuading the major families, I heard everything loud and clear!"
Lü Wenbang was dumbfounded. He could never have imagined that Su Yang had such tricks up his sleeve.
You see, when he visited the major families, he only discussed this matter with the family heads and the high-ranking members. Furthermore, he didn’t disclose his specific plans to those families that were unwilling to deal with Su Yang.
Therefore, only a few people knew about this; just those individuals and the members of those seventeen families. In his view, it was utterly impossible for Su Yang to know his plan.
But who could have expected that Su Yang had already prepared for today’s ambush amidst the chaos of last night?
Yesterday, everyone speculated that Su Yang would tragically perish amidst the encirclement of the major families. In their eyes, it was a tremendous stroke of luck that Su Yang could barely survive. In such circumstances, how could Su Yang possibly have time to think about anything else?
Yet, not only did Su Yang survive last night’s fierce battle, but he also managed to secure such a position. Most unexpectedly, in such a disadvantageous situation, he still managed to think ahead and planted listening devices in the major families to target Lü Wenbang!
"Su Yang, you truly are as cunning as a demon!" Lü Wenbang took a deep breath, his voice deep: "However, what’s the use, even if you know all this? With the seventeen families of the Capital City uniting to attack your Shen Family Courtyard, do you think those people have any chance of surviving?"
"Lü Wenbang, you really think highly of those seventeen families!" Su Yang spoke loudly, "Do you think they would really engage in a deadly battle with the desperados from the dungeons? True, the power of the seventeen families could indeed exterminate those people. But have you considered what price these seventeen families would have to pay if they killed everyone in the Shen Family Courtyard? And after paying such a devastating price, what would their position in Capital City become?"
