The three family patriarchs gathered together along with a few other smaller families from Wansu City. Their expressions were not very good.
The tactic from the Fourth Head of the Wansu City was definitely leaked out.
Otherwise, it was hard for Xunsu City to make arrangements that suited their situation precisely.
The Yellow Family Patriarch, who was good at earth element, faced against White Family Patriarch's brother who was good at wind element. Even though White Family Patriarch's brother was strong, but his attack was not known to be the strongest, especially when he still had to protect White Family Patriarch whose main element was also wind.
The Purple Family Patriarch, who was good at lightning element faced off against the Green Family Patriarch who was good at wood element. The Green Family Patriarch was known for his control while the Purple Family Patriarch was known for his attack power and destructive ability.
Did he want to be stunned to death?
The Black Family Patriarch, who was good at dark element, faced against the Orange Family Patriarch who was good at fire element. That b*stard kept on burning things, preventing the shadows to form effectively on the battlefield.
This battle made them all very vexed.
If it was possible, the White Family Patriarch's brother wanted to face the Purple Family Patriarch. His crystal armor could block the lightning and then he could use his wind element to attack. If he had faced against the Purple Family Patriarch, the latter would have to run away.
The Green Family Patriarch would rather met with the Yellow Family Patriarch. Even though wood and earth were not exactly complimentary, but he could use his control to make the defense of Yellow Family Patriarch more useless, allowing his wife and sister in law to use fire to attack.
As for the Black Family Patriarch?
Either the Yellow Family Patriarch or the Purple Family Patriarch was fine. The lightning didn't have much effect on them but the fire would easily disrupt their shadow along with the light element.
Though, the light element was more effective.
But the people who were good at light element were the Green Family, so the second one they didn't like to see was the fire element.
After the battle, they all have indignance in their hearts.
The arrangements were completely in favor of Xunsu City.
This made them certain that something must be up.
One or two can be chalked to coincidence.
But everything?
Only a fool would think that everything was truly coincidences.
"I think someone have leaked out the tactic that the Fourth Head of the Wansu City sent out," the Green Family Patriarch said slowly.
To be honest, the Green Family Patriarch didn't want to believe this either.
His teacher, the Fourth Head of the Wansu City, has always been very careful and this was something that the Green Family Patriarch also knew.
There was no way that the Fourth Head of the Wansu City would leak out his tactic on purpose.
"The letter is sealed, right?" the White Family Patriarch asked.
"Yes." the Green Family Patriarch closed his eyes. The letter was sealed using special means so that only the person that was designated could open it.
And the person designated is him.
In other words, he should be the first one to know about the tactic aside from the Fourth Head of the Wansu City.
"There are two possibilities." the Black Family Patriarch looked around at the other family patriarchs. "It can be either one of us or someone from the city."
Everyone fell into silence.
No one wanted to answer.
They knew very well what this accusation meant.
If one of them had betrayed Wansu City, they might be kicked off the city and their entire family would suffer a lot.
"We didn't do it," one of them said.
"I know." White Family Patriarch sighed. "I used my crystal eyes to monitor and found no one left the camp, so it could only be someone from the city."
Hearing this, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
They knew that the White Family's crystal eyes could monitor them from a distance.
Knowing that they were being monitored didn't really sound too pleasant. But if this could clear off their suspicion, then they would rather turn blind eyes to the monitoring. Anyway, they didn't do anything since yesterday after they received the Fourth Head of the Wansu City's letter.
"The city…" the Green Family Patriarch looked back with a complicated expression.
There were not many people who were present when the Fourth Head of the Wansu City made the letter. He didn't want to believe that it was his teacher who leaked out the tactics, so it should be one of the elders who were staying around the Fourth Head of the Wansu City.
But even then, this kind of accusation is very heavy.
"From now on, we won't use the tactic sent by the Fourth Head of the Wansu City anymore."
"Yes."
…
Aya didn't know that there was a meeting that doubted the Fourth Head of the Wansu City. If she knew, she would definitely scoff and tell them that the one who leaked the matter was definitely the Fourth Head of the Wansu City.
When he discussed the tactic, he purposely allowed the spy from Xunsu City to be present.
How could it not be leaked out?
But Aya could not participate in this matter.
Her age and identity was not very suitable.
Moreover, Aya didn't want to take care too much because she knew that her own strength was still very limited.
What she could guess was that after this war, the situation in Wansu City should improve somewhat.
…
Time passed quietly.
In the next few months, the Fourth Head of the Wansu City realized that these family patriarchs no longer used his tactic and the battle report was even delayed.
He was suspicious and alarmed.
Just when the Fourth Head of the Wansu City wanted to go to check in person, more ghosts appeared in front of his doorsteps.
the Fourth Head of the Wansu City: "..."
He swore that these ghosts really knew how to make trouble.
Every single time when he wanted to do something or when he was busy with things, the ghosts would appear and disrupt everything. Moreover, he had to announce the existence of these ghosts to the people because they have seen these ghosts.
If Aya were to know what the Fourth Head of the Wansu City was thinking, she would laugh.
She just attracted all the ghosts to the Fourth Head of the Wansu City's building whenever they appear. It was definitely not her arrangement.
But if it could happen when he was making trouble, then that would be for the best.
And over the course of a few months, they found out that they could kill these ghosts through using the powerful magic. Even though it would exhaust a lot of mana, but if these ghosts could be killed, it would be for the best.
The problem was, there were not many people in the entire Wansu City who could use these magic.
So it would still be a big problem for them to deal with these ghosts.
