< Second update! >
Ever since The Old Lady of Dongfang announced the Dongfang Family's comeback, the Dongfang Family's assassination orders had been pouring in like snowflakes! It was as if the whole world had accepted this family of assassins overnight!
The price of every order was sky-high!
For example, the price of assassinating an Earth Xuan expert used to be one hundred thousand silvers! But now, people were offering two hundred thousand silvers, even three hundred thousand silvers … The price had doubled!
However, the people they were supposed to assassinate were all experts!
If there were one or two such orders, the Dongfang Family would not be afraid. They would even be pleasantly surprised. Even if there were a few more orders, they would be able to swallow them all. But now … there were hundreds, thousands … even thousands of orders!
Among them, there were Tian Xuan, Shen Xuan, and even Supreme Martial Artists! And not just a few …
Four of the current Eight Great Supremes had actually appeared on the list of people entrusted to him …
No matter how powerful the Dongfang Family was, they would not be able to swallow all of them! If they were to force it, then the only result would be that all the outstanding assassins of the Dongfang Family would die in these missions. Even the Three Dongfang Swords would not be able to survive! The Dongfang Family would completely collapse!
However, the Dongfang Family had officially announced their comeback. If they were to retreat now … then, it would be equivalent to being suppressed by these missions! If that happened, the Dongfang Family would become the eternal laughing stock of the whole continent!
From then on, the Dongfang Family would no longer exist in the martial world!
But if they were to accept all of them, the result could only be the same …
Destruction!
The Dongfang Family could be said to be facing death if they advanced, and death if they retreated!
They could not advance or retreat, and there was no way out!
Every order had a reason, and it was a very legitimate reason, in line with the Dongfang Family's requirements. Many of the orders were even sent with deposits … There was no lack of sincerity!
And these orders were sent separately, in batches. Since the Dongfang Family had returned, the contacts who had been stationed in various places naturally had to be sent out again. These people had been idle for ten years, and all of them had been bored to the point of insanity. Who didn't want to show off their skills when they went out?
Therefore, the informants of the Dongfang Family, who had been assigned to the contact points in the ten regions, were revived at the same time. And every contact had received quite a number of orders. In the past, this kind of thing was basically in the scope of big business. Even when the Dongfang Family was in its heyday, it was still very rare. Therefore, every contact felt that they had made a great contribution. They accepted the requests one by one and sent them to headquarters …
One person might not bring a lot, or even a very good result. But when all the results were gathered together, the result directly changed. Such a rich result could drive the Dongfang Family to death at once …
The Old Lady of Dongfang clearly understood that all this was clearly the revenge of the three Holy Lands. The most secretive way of revenge, and the most naked way of revenge! They wouldn't do it openly, because they would never accept the condemnation of the world … But they used this kind of legitimate way to drive the Dongfang Family to death!
But as long as it was someone with eyes, who couldn't see it?!
Or … they were forcing Jun Moxie, who had retreated into the Tian Fa Forest, to come out again!
Because all of this was because of Jun Moxie!
Dongfang Family headquarters.
"Mother, should we inform Mo Xie? There are so many orders, and all of them have a time limit … We definitely can't finish them all. "Dongfang Wenjian asked cautiously.
The Old Lady of Dongfang was sitting on the chair, thinking about something with a gloomy face. When she heard this, she immediately flew into a rage. "You're Mo Xie's uncle, and you actually have the cheek to say such words! Isn't this all a plot by the three Holy Lands to deal with my grandson?! If you inform Mo Xie, wouldn't it be exactly what they want? If Mo Xie comes back, and something happens to him because of this, how will you face your sister? "
"Even if the Dongfang Family is really dead! We can't drag my grandson down with us! " The Old Lady's eyes flashed coldly. "If anyone secretly tells Mo Xie … don't blame me for being merciless! The Sikong Family and the Duanmu Family suffered such a blow, and even though we know that it was because of Mo Xie, those two families still chose to endure it silently, and didn't ask for help from Mo Xie. Could it be that we, as Mo Xie's maternal uncle's family, are his relatives less important than those two families? Q-Sword, aren't you ashamed to say such words?! "
Dongfang Wenjian's face was full of shame. His original intention was just to ask, but he didn't expect to be reprimanded mercilessly by his mother …
Dongfang Wenqing sighed and said, "Mother is right. Their goal is to make us seek help from the Tian Fa Forest since they've been able to force us into such a situation without even batting an eyelid! I'm even sure that they must have prepared an extremely powerful move! As long as Mo Xie appears, what awaits him will definitely be a fatal blow! After such a huge loss, they will definitely not allow Mo Xie to live, and they won't use the same lineup as before … The danger in this is too great … "
"But this also proves that! Mo Xie is still safe in the Tian Fa Forest! They don't dare to go in, so they resorted to such underhanded methods! I didn't expect the three Holy Lands to be so despicable and shameless! "
The Old Lady of Dongfang's face was gloomy. "So, the more they force us, the more we can't ask for help from Tian Fa! Remember, in the Dongfang Family, if I hear such words again, I will immediately drive them out of the family, without mercy! "
"Yes! Then, Mother, what about these orders? No matter what, we need to have a countermeasure! "Dongfang Wenqing asked.
"Since the orders have been accepted, they will definitely not allow a refund. What we need to do now is to inform them that the price they gave is unreasonable! Make an issue out of the price! "
The Old Lady of Dongfang smiled wisely. "All the missions are not allowed to be carried out without permission! Then, inform all the contacts that from now on, they are not allowed to accept new orders! Also, for those orders that had already been accepted, the original price would be tripled! Let them negotiate carefully, the longer the better … If there is anyone who doesn't agree to the price increase, immediately cancel the order! "
"Mother's brilliant plan!" Dongfang Wenjian's eyes lit up.
"Brilliant plan? It's just a temporary expedient. This plan might not have much of an effect. At most, it could only buy a little more time to turn the situation around. If I'm not wrong, all the people who released the information will choose to accept the price increase we proposed … "The Old Lady of Dongfang furrowed her brows and said," So, we don't have much time … And the reputation of the Dongfang Family cannot be tarnished in my hands! So, we can only take one step at a time. Once the orders are confirmed, we will still have to take action … You must be prepared for this. "
"That's not a problem. What we lack the most now is time to switch. As long as we have enough time, we may be able to accept those orders. And … if we can accept all these orders, not only will our Dongfang Family regain its former glory, we will also be able to create a more splendid glory! " With this brilliant plan of Dongfang The Old Lady of Dongfang as the foundation, Dongfang Wenqing was obviously more optimistic about the future development.
"Don't be blindly optimistic because of a temporary success. The situation in front of us is absolutely unfavorable! The three Holy Lands are not that easy to deal with! Do the three of you know what I'm most afraid of now? "The Old Lady of Dongfang's face was solemn, and she seemed to be a little worried.
"Well, mother, do you have any other concerns? As long as we have enough time to turn the situation around, with the strength of our Dongfang Family, we will be able to solve those missions no matter what! At worst, we can just gather our superior forces to solve it … "Dongfang Wenjian asked in surprise.
"What I'm most worried about now is that those clients will really agree to take back the orders, or only keep a small portion of the orders. Then, the situation will become really serious!" The Old Lady said.
"That's impossible. If they take back the orders, or only keep a small portion of the orders, it will be very beneficial to us. Why would the situation become serious instead?" Dongfang Wenjian was obviously even more confused. On the contrary, the Old Lady of Dongfang Wenqing had a solemn and thoughtful look on her face. Obviously, she had thought of something …
"Idiot, if the situation really develops into that situation, it means that the three Holy Lands and Mo Xie will really shed all pretense of cordiality … Let me give you the simplest example. We received a target with a sky-high price, and the target's strength is very low. However, there is a Holy Land powerhouse hidden by his side that we can't deal with. Think about it, what will happen next!" The Old Lady said hatefully, "Do you really think that … the three Holy Lands won't do such a thing?"
"If the target's strength exceeds the scope of the information provided by the client, the responsibility is not on us. We have a lot of reasons to say that!" Dongfang Wenjian said.
"What do you mean by exceeding the scope of the information provided? Who made the rule that the person who helps the target must be the target's subordinate? Guests, High Officials, they are all included! And the three Holy Lands have people like that! Can't you even understand this point? If that's the case, it's equivalent to a deadly trap waiting for us to fall into! " Dongfang Wenqing let out a long sigh and said, "Mother, you're right. We really have to guard against this …"
"If that's the case, we can just give up on the mission!" Dongfang Wenjian said angrily, "We know it's a trap. Do we still have to step into it?"
"Give up? We can indeed give up, but that's a sky-high price. Once we give up, we will have to pay several times the compensation. We may be able to afford one mission, but what about ten? A hundred? What should we do? What about the Dongfang Family! How can the Dongfang Family afford it now? "
"If that's the case, then we're really done for … Since we can do that, why don't the three Holy Lands do it directly?" The Second Master of Dongfang understood the gravity of the situation and could not help but be cautious.
