In the north of the Independent State, in an uninhabited area:
The youth was dressed in snow-white clothes, and his long, ink-like hair casually fell to his waist. At first glance, he looked like an immortal from a painting.
"Young Master, there's news from the Southern battlefield."
Soon, a young man walked toward the youth.
"En." There was no emotion in the youth's eyes, and there was an imperceptible smile on his lips.
"The Ji family won … a complete victory in the Northern battlefield …" The young man stared at the youth in shock.
He couldn't imagine that the youth in front of him was able to devise strategies at such a young age and come up with so many wicked schemes that he played the Ji family's two powerful enemy factions like a fiddle. His final act of sowing discord could be considered perfect.
If it weren't for this youth, the Ji family's war would've lasted at least two more years.
This youth was the eldest son of the Ji family of the Independent State. His name was Ji Xiuran.
The young man found it hard to imagine that he was still wet behind the ears and ignorant of the ways of the world when he was Ji Xiuran's age.
However, Ji Xiuran was an extreme. He possessed extremely high intelligence and was extremely shrewd. His skills and strategies had reached the pinnacle of perfection.
In front of the young man, this youth …
Was almost like a god …
"Young Master, what should we do with the eldest son of the Zhou family?"
The young man turned around and examined the giant box in the back of the car.
"Kill him."
Ji Xiuran replied aloofly.
The young man was startled.
The Ji family had two mortal enemies — the Zhou family and the Tong family.
Inside this box was the eldest son of the Zhou family that Ji Xiuran had just captured.
Although it was true that the Ji family won the Southern battlefield, if they killed the eldest son of the Zhou family, the Ji family would probably receive a fierce retaliation from the Zhou family. At that time, the Tong family would reap the benefits without doing anything.
"Young Master, are we really going to kill him?" the young man asked uncertainly.
The youth was expressionless. "I used Ah-Ming's identity to hire the Tong family's mercenaries to help me escort this item. The route is northwest, so the Tong family's mercenaries won't suspect anything."
"Young Master, what do you mean?" The young man was confused.
"The Zhou family lost at this time, so they'll naturally send a large number of spies into the northwest. What if the Zhou family discovers their dead eldest son among the Tong family's mercenaries?" the youth asked aloofly.
As soon as Ji Xiuran finished speaking, the young man shuddered.
Then the Zhou and Tong families … would fight to the death …
Even if the Tong Family wanted to explain, with Ji Xiuran's previous ploy to sow discord, the Zhou Family wouldn't believe them. They would only think that the Tong Family killed their eldest son.
Moreover, during this period of time, the Ji Family had been on the northern battlefield. They had no time to make a move against the eldest son of the Zhou Family.
"Ah Ming."
At this moment, Ji Xiuran looked at a middle-aged man.
"Stay here and hand this chest to the Tong family mercenaries. You'll accompany them. Remember, you need to deliberately get discovered by the Zhou family's spies. When the time is right, you can leave on your own," Ji Xiuran said.
"Understood …" the middle-aged man replied.
At this moment, the young man finally understood his young master's goal.
Ah Ming was a steward of the Tong Family who had been bribed by Ji Xiuran. The young man had been wondering why Ji Xiuran had bribed someone from the Tong Family.
Ah Ming didn't have much status in the Tong family. He was just an ordinary steward. In the young man's opinion, there was no need to bribe such a person.
…
The young man easily dealt with the unconscious eldest son of the Zhou family inside the box. Then, he left Ah Ming and the box behind while he left with the young man.
"Brilliant, Young Master!" Halfway there, the young man gave Ji Xiuran a thumbs-up. "Ah Ming is a small steward of the Tong family and has nothing to do with mercenary business. If the Zhou family's spies discover him … the Tong family really won't be able to explain themselves!"
