152: The purpose of leadership

After a long while.

The Gao family guards all wore solemn expressions; not a single one dared to step forward again.

Seeing this, Wang Yi nodded with satisfaction.

"The Seven-Colored Powder is finally in my hands." Wang Yi let out a long sigh of relief. Once these people left, as long as he spent some time, he would be able to find the Seven-Colored Powder.

As long as he handed the Seven-Colored Powder to the master, Wang Yi would be saved.

And this was the very thing Wang Yi had been pursuing all along.

After the Gao family guards left the warehouse, they all turned back and gazed at it.

"Commander, why are we leaving? Are we really just going to give away all of your things?" The Gao family guard was unwilling to accept this.

The commander lifted his head and scanned his surroundings. Upon discovering that no one else was around, he spoke in a low voice.

"Let me tell you, you have no idea!"

"No one can touch this warehouse!"

The commander's Face darkened, and he wore a grave expression. At the same time, the corner of his mouth curled up, looking for all the world like someone about to watch a good show.

Upon hearing this, the Gao family guards were all confused, wearing solemn expressions.

One of them spoke slowly, "Commander, what do you mean? Does this warehouse hide some mystery? Are there mechanisms inside?"

"There are no mechanisms." The commander smiled slightly, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

"Then what is it?" the man asked again.

"Actually, there is an expert from the Gao Family inside who is specifically here to guard the warehouse. Do you understand the importance of this warehouse to the Gao Family?" The commander smiled slightly; he seemed to have known all of this long ago.

"This warehouse contains the treasures of the Gao Family through the generations, and many people in Yizhou City are eyeing it. Did you think such an important place was only guarded by the few of us?" The commander's mouth curled into a sneer.

Upon receiving this news, the Gao family guards frowned; they did not understand the meaning behind these words.

After a long while, the commander turned back and looked in the direction of the warehouse.

"Do you know that the Gao Family has an Old Ancestor? Rumor has it that this Old Ancestor is already dead!" The commander's eyes lit up as he revealed this matter.

Hearing this, the Gao family guards were suddenly enlightened.

One of them said in surprise, "Could it be that High Ancestor Gao is not dead at all! And that he came here instead!"

"Commander, then is this warehouse High Ancestor Gao's room? Does that mean there is a master guarding this warehouse? Anyone who enters is sure to die?" The Gao family guard gasped, struggling to calm himself down.

After all, such a thing was far too terrifying.

The Gao family guard felt somewhat unsettled and sat cross-legged on the ground. He used this method to circulate his Qi, allowing his Bloodline to flow more smoothly within his body.

"That's right, it is indeed so. Generally, no one dares to approach this warehouse, except for those who want to die." The commander's Face darkened, and as he said this, a cold glint flashed in his eyes.

Just then, the Gao family guard looked distressed, "Commander, if that's the case, we have been in the warehouse all this time; why didn't we see this expert?"

Hearing this, the commander grew impatient. He strode forward, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

Immediately, the commander reached out and slammed his hand heavily onto the Gao family guard's head. "You idiot, you really are an idiot!" the commander cursed.

"Don't you think about what your status is?" "How could an expert of the Gao Family possibly come to see you? Do you think you are very strong in the Gao Family!"

"Honestly, even if you really saw High Ancestor Gao, you would probably be so scared you'd wet your pants!" The commander clenched his fists tightly.

In truth, whenever High Ancestor Gao was mentioned, the commander found it hard to calm down. These good-for-nothing things even wanted to see High Ancestor Gao; they really dared to say and think anything!

"Yes, I know, Commander. Don't hit me, don't hit me!" The Gao family guard hurriedly reached out, protecting his little head.

Just then, the Gao family guard hurriedly backed away several steps, wanting to keep some distance from the commander. Otherwise, the Gao family guard would still end up getting beaten.

"Enough, you know? You don't know a damn thing!" The commander waved his large sleeve, displaying his arrogance, and let out a cold snort.

"Yes, I don't know a damn thing." The Gao family guard nodded quickly, feeling quite helpless.

The commander had always spoken like this, but he still held some authority in the Gao Family. These soldiers dared not neglect the commander's words and obediently followed them.

"By the way, Commander, what should we do next?" The Gao family guard frowned, feeling quite helpless. "Are we going to stay in the Gao Family? Those people from Mulan Manor have already attacked! If we don't leave now, it will be too late!"

The Gao family guard's pupils contracted sharply. When he said this, everyone responded. These people were only hired by the Gao Family; they were not Disciples of the Gao Family, and as far as the Gao Family was concerned, they had no loyalty to speak of.

"What are you all panicking about! Wait a moment." The commander suddenly spoke up, his Face dark, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

"Commander, what other instructions do you have?" The Gao family guards were stunned; they did not understand. In the past, if it came to running away, the commander would be the first to flee. But today, the commander was so calm; they really didn't know if he had some ulterior motive.

"We have to wait, wait for that guy who just went in to die!" The commander's mouth curled up, revealing a malicious smile. That was exactly it; Wang Yi had been so arrogant just now. Wang Yi's actions had caused the commander to lose Face, so very well, the commander would make this guy lose his life! The commander intended to use the means of High Ancestor Gao to kill Wang Yi!

"But Commander, if the people from Mulan Manor attack, we won't be able to leave!" The Gao family guard was somewhat worried. Mulan Manor was a powerful force; if they really attacked the Gao Family, none of these Gao family guards would survive. Moreover, the people from Mulan Manor had already reached the Gao Family's plaza, and perhaps in another half-stick of incense time, they would arrive at this backyard. Now was the best time to leave!

"What are you afraid of? As long as the people from Mulan Manor attack, we will surrender. Do you think they will kill us all?" The commander's mouth curled up, he held his head high, and revealed a strange smile. At this moment, the commander looked as if he had victory in his grasp, which was quite strange.

"That works too? Wouldn't that mean our lives would all be in their hands?" "Yeah, Commander, if we do that, we won't have any bargaining power." "Commander, why don't we leave now, just to save our lives?" The Gao family guards did not want to stay here any longer; they did not want to be captured, and certainly did not want to be taken alive by these people from Mulan Manor.
