Chapter 2792: Chapter 2792: How Many Have Been Subdued?

"It’s not likely."

Qian Jiyun spoke.

No matter what, Old Lin is someone the camp is keeping an eye on. If he suddenly disappears under mysterious circumstances, the camp is bound to take action.

Right now, aren’t those people just watching the camp, fearing any commotion from here? So, they’re unlikely to target someone as insignificant as Old Lin.

...

In a dense woods, a cave was faintly visible.

"What’s going on? Both assassination attempts ended in failure. How are you handling things?"

A somewhat exasperated voice rang out. The repeated failures had left him discouraged, even more frustrated at how useless his people were.

"How am I supposed to explain to the higher-ups with such incompetence? If the master holds us accountable, none of you will be able to escape!"

Hearing the man’s forceful voice, a few people dressed in black shrunk their necks.

But what could they do? Those people just wouldn’t give them any chance. The attempt in the daytime had already failed, and by night, the defenses were even tighter.

They wanted to succeed, but unable to do so, what else could they do?

"Boss, you can’t blame us for this. The assassination attempt was too hasty from the start, and we weren’t prepared," one of the men in black muttered quietly.

"You..."

Hearing his words, the man got even more furious.

"What do you mean unprepared? All of you, with such high cultivation level, can’t even gain the upper hand against those lowlifes? If everyone were like you, what’s the point of keeping you guys?"

He truly couldn’t figure out how he ended up with such a useless bunch under his command.

"How are those people lowlifes? Among them are guards with cultivation levels comparable to ours."

The men in black felt quite wronged. Now, every camp had its share of high-cultivation-level people, thanks to the master’s efforts. Who else was to blame for the current mess?

They talked about recruiting those people, but how many have been recruited so far?

None but some fair-weather friends who say one thing here and do another at their own camps. For instance, in this assassination attempt, if it weren’t for those people interfering, could they have failed so badly?

"Boss, when will the master be able to subdue those people?" someone asked.

"Uh."

The man was stumped by their question.

How should he know what the master is thinking? Each one of those people seemed to have more ideas than the next. The master wanting to subdue all of them is probably impossible.

Even if possible, only a small portion might be subdued. As for all of them, it’s not even worth considering.

"Why are you guys in such a hurry? The master isn’t even anxious; what’s it got to do with you? Just do what you’re supposed to and stop asking things you shouldn’t know."

The men in black, hearing this, also understood that their boss couldn’t answer them, hence the reprimand.

"So, boss, what do we do now? After two failed assassinations, those people are guarding tightly. It’s definitely impossible to succeed now. Should the operation continue?" someone asked.

"Let’s hold off for now."

The man pondered and could only say that he’d have to report back to the master before making a decision.

Trying to provoke a conflict between Huayan Peak and the planes seems unlikely. The inter-plane travelers might not return in the short term, so there may still be a chance.
