Capítulo 1272: Chapter 1358: Kill by ProxyLangya Pavilion!

“What do you all think about the Ye Family’s extermination this time?”

An old man with an ethereal presence sat atop the Great Heroic Hall, speaking coldly.

“|Pavilion Master, we can’t make hasty conclusions about this.”

A few people didn’t know how to respond. These individuals were the trusted aides of the Langya Pavilion Master, also part of the think tank.

“Just say whatever comes to mind!”

The Langya Pavilion Master spoke softly.

“Pavilion Master, actually, I feel there’s something strange about this. It feels like the Dugu family wants to exterminate the Ye Family, but it somehow appears like the Ye Family was arrogant and brought it upon themselves.”

“Indeed, Pavilion Master, Dugu Lang has always been low-key, but this time he has shown such skill and initiative, which is truly unexpected.”

“Pavilion Master, I personally think this isn’t something that brute Dugu Lang could have done. Dugu Lang’s combat power is decent, but his brain isn’t the best. Yet this time, Dugu Lang’s methods were exceptionally clever, completely standing on the side of reason.”

Several people explained eagerly to each other. After listening, the Langya Pavilion Master was shocked and finally understood the implication of this matter.

“You mean there’s someone behind Dugu Lang.”

“It’s very likely, Pavilion Master. Dugu Lang lacks the intellect to execute such a large operation. Previously, his confrontations with the Ye Family were intense, but everyone knew Dugu Lang was no match for Ye Tianchen. It was just that the Ye Family didn’t dare to openly oppose him because he had a method to control wolves.”

A think tank member explained.

“Then what kind of person do you think this is?”

The Langya Pavilion Master felt he had underestimated the situation. This time, Dugu Lang’s move was completely beyond his expectations. The Ye Family was exterminated overnight, and he reported it to me the following morning, providing all kinds of detailed evidence, so much so that I couldn’t even refute it.

“Pavilion Master, this person must be hidden in the shadows. I personally feel that to uncover them, we might need to use other families to bring them out.”

“Oh? How do you propose bringing them out?”

The Langya Pavilion Master asked curiously.

“Pavilion Master, as far as I know, the Zhu Family harbors deep-seated hatred towards the Dugu family because their youngest son was eaten by wolves they raised. This has always been a source of lingering resentment.”

“That’s not a bad idea!”

As the Langya Pavilion Master finished speaking, he shot out two beams of killing aura, saying.

“Handle this matter immediately. We must get their people out.”

|”Yes!” The four think tanks quickly left, and after they left, the Langya Pavilion Master sat on the throne, sighed, and felt a bit uneasy.

Dugu Residence!

“Dugu Lang, wasn’t there supposed to be a Talents Banquet today? Why is there no movement?”|

Su Xuan asked curiously.

“It’s delayed. I guess it has something to do with our recent action. Su Xuan, what should we do next?”

Now, Dugu Lang felt that he only needed to follow Su Xuan’s instructions. If failure came, then so be it.

“Wait… If I’m not mistaken, the Langya Pavilion Master will start probing next. They must have guessed you have someone helping you, but they’ll surely overlook me. To draw me out, someone will need to provoke you. Who’s your biggest enemy right now?”

Su Xuan smiled and said.

“Uh… it might be the Zhu Family. Last time when I was controlling the wolf pack, an accident happened, and a few wolves escaped and ate the Zhu Family’s youngest son, so I think the Zhu Family is very likely to come after me.”

“It seems you’ll have to deal with the Zhu Family next. Since the Langya Pavilion Master is going to send a piece of fat meat your way, don’t be shy to accept it.”

“Uh… Is this also an entrapment?”

Dugu Lang felt a chill down his spine, thinking this guy is simply a devil crawling out of Hell, full of bloodthirst and terror.

“No, this time we’ll play with killing by proxy!”

Su Xuan said with a wicked smile.

“Killing by proxy?”

Dugu Lang was terrified and thought this guy’s brain is simply inhuman, suddenly remembering the time he was toyed with by him; it was truly agonizing.

“Earlier, you told me once that Zhu Family’s son Zhu Yougui had an eye on Hua Jian’s sister Hua Ting, right?”

Su Xuan said with a smile.

“Right, that’s indeed the case. But in our kind of family, it’s often just wishful thinking, and the Four Elders look down upon us.”

“What if Zhu Yougui actually slept with Hua Ting, and through improper means?”

“Then I bet Hua Jian would cut Zhu Yougui down. As far as I know, Hua Jian is a bit of a deviant and likes his own sister, with rumors about them being involved.”

“No way, such a heavy taste!”

Su Xuan was speechless, truly not having seen it coming that Hua Jian was such a heavy taste king.

“Uh… I also heard about it, but their sibling relationship is indeed very good. If Zhu Yougui really slept with Hua Ting, it would definitely incite Hua Jian against Zhu Yougui.”

‘|”Since that’s the case, let Zhu Yougui deal with Hua Ting. As I know, Hua Ting isn’t a good person either.”

Su Xuan said coldly, as Hua Ting, though a woman, was ruthless and often used the family servants as live targets.

“Would Zhu Yougui listen to us?”

Dugu Lang’s heart twitched, thinking this matter seems oversimplified.

“He has no choice. Hua Jian previously lost a lot of money to Lu Chaoshuai and me, so he’ll definitely want to regain face. Therefore, I reckon if I go out, he’ll definitely appear, and his arrogant sister is sure to come as well. As for Zhu Yougui, I believe they’re most eager to find trouble with us right now, so you send Xue’er out with me, and Zhu Yougui will definitely follow.”

Su Xuan thought for a moment and said.

Dugu Lang was really twitching, thinking to himself that this might all be a wild imagination. Can things really change based on subjective assumptions? How many coincidences are needed for this to come together?

Little did he know, Su Xuan was playing with human nature. For days, Su Xuan hadn’t left the Dugu family for a reason, waiting for an opportunity. Ever since exterminating the Ye Family, Su Xuan instructed Dugu Lang to keep essential family members from going out, so that when the other party grew impatient, he would step out himself, like starving fish suddenly thrown bait; naturally, they swarmed in.

This logic is actually straightforward; Su Xuan’s goal was to gather these people. Once gathered, he could easily manipulate the situation.

“Where are you planning it?”

Dugu Lang was amazed, thinking this guy is truly a madman.
