Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Chapter 646: Chapter 605: Reaching the Peak 14 (4,000 words)_3

Shuangshuang can assert, the Bai Family’s vein has already been targeted by one of the fierce tigers they brought in themselves, or perhaps more than one, because nobody wants to make the first move. This has maintained a delicate balance allowing the Bai Family to exist calmly for so long.

But this balance is destined not to last long. One party will definitely be unable to resist making the first move. Whichever party does so, the Bai Family is the meat on the chopping board, ready to be carved by others.

Shuangshuang set down the information in her hand, pressing her forehead with some headache. The missing people’s cultivation levels are all below the Martial Artist level, since above that level, Bai Family does not manage well.

Now Shuangshuang is feeling headache because it is unknown if the many missing people this time is the work of the Bai Family themselves, or whether the numerous fierce tigers baited by Bai Family also intervened.

If Bai Family did it themselves, then handling it is simple. Just expose Bai Family’s secret, then Tan Family does not need to do anything further; Water City would bite into other families like sharks seeing blood.

Once this matter is torn open, the Bai Family capturing many Martial Artists will certainly be used by other families as leverage for attacking Bai Family, which is not good for Bai Family, but is the best and most effortless way to rescue those captured.

What feels tricky to Shuangshuang is if this incident involves Bai Family and the tigers they recruited, it’s troublesome. These people’s families are not small, at least not smaller than Tan’s main family. If they truly harbor ill intent, Shuangshuang might not outsmart them.

If these people are indeed related to Bai Family, then without gain or when genuinely tearing into satisfactory flesh, they wouldn’t allow Shuangshuang to unmask this cover. Meaning, if Shuangshuang wants to do something, the first enemy to face is not the Bai Family, but these tigers lured by Bai Family.

Feeling headache after reading the information, Shuangshuang pushed aside the materials, rubbed her brow, changed into fresh clothes and prepared to go out. She happened to run into Yue, who came to see Shuangshuang, and Yue naturally has a copy of Shuangshuang’s materials.

Being able to become the head of a family, Yue naturally has a smart mind. What Shuangshuang can see, Yue can also see.

Previously, the reason Yue was completely clueless and overwhelmed was because she never suspected the Bai Family had issues.

Now the veil has been lifted, all the problems lay before her eyes, making Yue’s mood as heavy as Shuangshuang’s. Seeing Shuangshuang preparing to go out, intending to discuss strategies with Shuangshuang, Yue was momentarily taken aback.

Shuangshuang casually invited, ”Family Head, would you like to join me for a walk around Water City?”

This time Yue agreed very readily; she hasn’t forgotten that last time Shuangshuang went for a walk and ended up uncovering well-hidden secrets of Bai Family. If this time more evidence or information could be gleaned, it would be great, Yue thought with bitter amusement.

Upon walking, Shuangshuang found, the impact on Water City due to this incident is exceedingly large. Now not only near the south gate, but even other places are quite desolate, basically seeing no one in the streets.

Shuangshuang and Yue went to the largest restaurant in Water City. Inside, they ordered a few nice dishes and casually picked a spot in the hall to sit, slowly eating their meal.

At meal time, people gradually came in to eat. Whether these people were local or not, Shuangshuang didn’t know, but feeling their boundless energy, evidently their cultivation levels weren’t low, and some even gave Shuangshuang a strong sense of oppression.

No more words were needed for Shuangshuang to know, these people must be those so-called powerful guests invited by Bai Family.

It is said a powerful dragon does not suppress a local snake, but the prerequisite is the certainty that one at the locale is indeed a snake. From the perspective of those brought by Bai Family, these so-called families in Water City are not worthy of being local snakes, merely local bugs that can be crushed with ease.

Shuangshuang tucked into her meal while watching these people gather in groups of three or five, relaxing and discussing topics Shuangshuang didn’t understand.

Then quickly, a Bai Family member came in and took one person away. Through the remaining people’s discussion post their departure, Shuangshuang learned today was the turn for that person to collect goods from Bai Family.

They briefly met and left, so short in duration that it was less than two breaths, entirely devoid of anything useful for Shuangshuang to analyze further, with no valuable verbal exchange.

Shuangshuang frowned because she realized that while she secretly observed these people, they were also discreetly observing Shuangshuang’s side, or rather, Yue beside her.
