Ji familrs Rose Road Branch.
Entrance.
Everyone was overwhelmed by the sudden fire incident in the morning. Fourth Elder, Second Elder, and other prestigious members of the Ji family had all arrived.
They looked at the devastated entrance of the hall and the family members who were constantly being carried out. Their faces were red with anger, and their eyes were bloodshot.
Fourth Elder slammed his fist on the table, causing everything on the table’s surface to bounce. “Who gave them the guts?! How dare they?!”
They had never suffered such a loss since the first patriarch of the Ji family dominated the independent continent a hundred years ago.
No one present felt good.
Even Second Elder, who had supported Ji Ziyin as the Patriarch, was angry. The corners of his mouth curled up as he walked in without saying a word.
“How many of us died?” he asked, holding back one of the men in charge of rescuing the wounded.
Seeing it was him, the man panicked momentarily and didn’t know where to put his hands and feet. “S-Second Elder.”
“Mm.” Second Elder’s face was tense as he forced himself to reply. His tone was still relatively calm as he asked again, “How many of us died in this incident?”
The man calmed down slightly and said with a sad expression, “Second Elder,
36 people from the branch hall have died.”
The family members behind him instantly exploded. They gritted their teeth and cursed angrily. “36 people? Why so many?”
“Those scumbags!’
“Elders, we must find them and make them pay the price! We can’t let these brothers sacrifice themselves for nothing!’
Second Elder felt as if a stick was hitting him on the head as he listened to the buzzing argument. It was so noisy that his head hurt.
With an aching head, he opened his eyes and stared straight at the man. The taste of rust surged out of his throat. “36?”
The man quickly stole a glance at him before lowering his head again. “Yes, none of the brothers in the branch retreated to protect the hall. They suddenly launched a sneak attack, and we were caught off guard… In the end, our side suffered heavy casualties. Almost half of our brothers died… to protect the hall.”
The entire hall was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
No one spoke.
Everyone subconsciously fell silent.
At this moment, even anger seemed inappropriate.
Second Elder closed his eyes tightly. After a few seconds, he opened his eyes again and turned to ask the people behind him, “Do you think they were just after the Rose Road Branch?”
Fourth Elder and the others were speechless.
They were not stupid. Of course, they knew those behind this attack were not just after the Rose Road Branch. They must have other motives. Second Elder said, “Seeing that the Patriarch’s whereabouts are unknown…”
Ji Lingfengs whereabouts were unknown, and his fate was unknown.
The Ji family was also leaderless.
Hence, they were at their weakest right now. Anyone could step on them!
At this moment.
There was a commotion outside.
A few elders looked toward the source of the disturbance and saw Ji Ziyin rushing over with a few people.
“Drop them on the ground.”
Ji Ziyin walked up to the elders and sternly ordered her subordinates to push the people she had captured to the ground.
They were gagged and sweating profusely. Their hands and feet were tied up, and they had no room to struggle. They looked like dogs wagging their tails
and begging for mercy..
