Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Lea was shocked, as if he suddenly recalled sothing. He asked, “So Burke seeking refuge is one of the plans?”
Gu ngng nodded and stepped forward again. She touched a line of words and said, “The seventh stratagem, creating sothing out of nothing. You use the sa feint twice. Having reacted to the first and often the second feint as well, the enemy will be hesitant to react to a third feint. Therefore the third feint is the actual attack catching your enemy with his guard down..”
Lea did not quite understand the aning of that stratagem but he was very sure that in Gu ngng’s heart, Burke seeking refuge was clearly not simple.
Elvis took a step forward and stood beside Gu ngng. Frowning, he said, “Since there’s sothing wrong with Burke, there’s no need to bring him back to Saint Nazaire. I’ll make a trip later and settle it on the spot.”
Gu ngng grabbed onto Elvis’s arm and shook her head gently. Then, she took two steps back and pointed her finger at another sentence. With a cold gaze, she read out, “The thirty stratagem, turning from the guest into the host. Usurp leadership in a situation where you are normally subordinate. Infiltrate your target. Initially, pretend to be a guest to be accepted, but develop from inside and beco the owner later.”
Lea lightly grazed past that sentence before eting Gu ngng’s hand. He grasped her little hand firmly in his.
There was so form of laughter in his eyes as he said, “Does ngng intend to use Burke to lure Cole out?”
Gu ngng nodded and said, “Although I’m still not sure why he pushed Burke to us but nothing will go wrong if we see through every trick he uses. He wants Burke to work for him so he must be eting Burke once every week to exchange information. So we just have to watch Burke closely to be able to catch Cole.”
Lea held Gu ngng’s hand and tugged onto it lightly, bringing her entire body towards his. eting eyes with hers, he said in a gentle and pampering tone, “I know you’re anxious to save Chixuan but you have to promise that you’ll not put yourself in danger, alright?”
Gu ngng chuckled before replying, “How long do you need to adjust to the Beast King strength in ?”
Lea shook his head, his gaze still fixated on Gu ngng. With a serious and solemn expression, he explained, “Regarding abilities, nobody can match up to you. But when we were battling Cole back then, neither nor Elvis were his opponents. If Cole really knows how to use the stuff carved on these stone tablets.....we have to be extrely careful.”
Gu ngng nodded her head, implying that she understood.
Better an open enemy than a false friend, an open foe may prove a curse but a fake friend is even worse.
She understood this principle.
“Alright, let’s fix these two stone tablets to the wall first and then use beast skin to hide them.”
There was a hole with the depth of half an arm dug on the wall a long ti ago. They just needed to place the stone tablets slightly slanted and then pushed them in for them to be firmly secured. Gu ngng shook them lightly and after making sure that they were fixed properly, she nodded her head in satisfaction and took two large beast skins to cover the hole up. Right after that, she invited the few tribe elders from the snow fox tribe in.
After the night campfire party, the few tribe elders boasted about being people of noble character and high prestige. And after a period of ti, they really encompassed so form of outstanding behaviors like immortals in them.
“Servant pays a visit to the mighty ssenger.”
The few old foxes bowed towards Gu ngng in respect.
Gu ngng lifted her hand and jumped straight into the main subject, “These two days, I’ll bring part of the tribesn back to Saint Nazaire. I’ll leave Oakley behind in Sauder to manage everything so I hope the tribe elders can cooperate and work together with him.”
The mont she announced her decision, the tribe elders were all taken aback. They did not even have ti to speak up before their expressions start to crumble.
Gu ngng did not give them any chance to speak rubbish as she added, “I originally wanted the few tribe elders to stay by my side but...I have to leave a few important characters in Sauder so that I have a few trusted subordinates to help guard this place.”
