Li Wei stared ily at the [Silver Iron Forest] map on the s.

  Now that the Li family could freely explore this map, the fog had long dissipated. As long as he clicked on the map, Li Wei could see the se of any location.

  And at this moment, The white dots in six dires on the map were all verging towards the Silver Iron Forest!

  "They've ehe trap."

  Li Wei narrowed his eyes slightly.

  From the moment they learhe Pig Demon King was their in-w, this had already bee a trap that the Li family had spent siderable time setting up!

  And Li Wei knew clearly, Within this grand scheme, the Lantier Wu family was destio bury their years of accumuted resources and power in the Silver Iron Forest!

  On this map, the path leading to the depths of the Silver Iron Forest was pletely unguarded.

  Because...

  "Not good! The Lantier Wu family has been wiped out!"

  "The Demon King of the Silver Iron Forest appeared! It already knew about our seven families' pn to besiege it and intercepted the Wu family early, intending to defeat us one by one!"

  "Someone from the Lantier Wu family came to ask for help. Our aor asked me to e and see if you want to help them or not?"

  These families had just reached the middle se of the forest wheopped.

  On the map, freen dots were moving toward the four major families, delivering the hat the Lantier Wu family had been annihited.

  And these freen dots, Represent the people from the Li family and the Gu family!

  The four major families hesitated for a moment, but they all tacitly sent four Qi Refining stage cultivators to iigate, theantly retreated in the dire they came from. They had to believe the warning from their two allies, better safe than sorry.

  After all, if they died, what would happen to their family?

  "How could the news leaked? Could there be a traitor among us?"

  "Regardless, all we do now is wait for news."

  "What about Master Shancai... Right, when we go back, we'll say the Lantier Wu family caused chaos and disrupted everyone's pns. It has nothing to do with us."

  In front of the s, Li Wei smiled.

  There were iraitors, and two of them at that!

  Otherwise, the allied forces of the seven families would have charged straight in, and there wouldn't have been any opportunity for such a strategieuver.

  Everything...

  Was uhe trol of the Li family!

  ...

  "Family Head, we're back!"

  At this time, In the dire of the Gu family in the Silver Iron Forest, they had actually remained in their inal position, not moving at all.

  And the two people who returned were precisely those who had delivered the message to the other two families!

  "Hmm."

  The head of the Gu family, eared like a schor with his gentle and refined demeanor, yet possessed a hint of ruthlessness in his expression, spoke to his members in a cold voice. "This matter is a high-stakes endeavor, with sequehat could be devastating for us all. It must be kept strictly fidential. Do you all uand?"

  "Uood!"

  Everyone responded with furrowed brows.

  However, an elder in the questioned, "Family Head, why do we o harm the Lantier Wu family? You know u family has experienced years of severe drought and desperately he resources from the Silver Iron Forest to replenish ourselves."

  The head of the Gu family didn't get angry.

  His posure was truly rare.

  "A season ago, Li Yaozu from the Li family came to see me. He asked me a question that I found very iing."

  "Oh?" The crowds were puzzled.

  The Gu family head said, "The young man from the Li family asked, even if we were to break into the Silver Iron Forest, would there be casualties? Would it be worth it if the elders that our families have spent hundreds of years cultivatio die because of this?"

  "This..."

  Everyone looked at each other. In a life-or-death struggle, how could there be no casualties? However, they were all advanced in age, and their goal was to obtain more resources to nurture the future geions of their families.

  "It's not worth it. But we have an opportunity, a ce to gain the wealth of a turies-old family without sacrifig a single soldier!"

  The Gu family head sneered, "Do you uand now?"

  "The Lantier Wu family!"

  "Most of their experts died in the Silver Iron Forest, and the Lantier Wu family is very close to us. They are a big, fat pieeat ready for the taking!"

  "The current Wu family is just a mb to be sughtered, I see!"

  The many elders of the Gu family uood and couldn't help but be overjoyed.

  Why not take advantage of the free food without having to fight for it?

  One of the elders suddenly realized, "No wohat Li family girl dared to give suggestions in front of us. It turns out she had a pn all along. She deliberately mentioned going straight into the Silver Iron Forest to shut up that old fellow Wu Mengqiu! Then, we said we would attack the Silver Iron Forest from seven dires and spread the hat the Wu family was about to be destroyed, so all the families would leave."

  As soon as these words were spoken...

  The elder who had questioned earlier grew even more serious, his brow furrowing in ption. "In that case," he began, his voice heavy with the weight of the decision, "we must leave no one alive in the Lantier Wu family, otherwise, if this matter gets out, u family will be treated as human traitors. Family Head, who will hahe Wu family?"

  "Naturally, it's the Li family," the Gu family head said casually.

  "The Li family?"

  The many elders of the Gu family frowheir eyes full of suspi.

  After all, when all the s gathered this time, the Li family's power was really insignifit.

  But the Gu family head ughed.

  "You don't think that the Li family, who destroy two s on their own and even impress me, is overly fident, do you? When that little brat Yaozu discussed it with me, I saw absolute fiden him!"
