2240: Who Dares Resist?

Who Dares Resist?

"Those who put up a desperate struggle will be executed on the spot." At Tung's order, the group of young men in black raised their weapons and callously started eliminating foes. 1

As the number of people dying inside the official mansion increased, more Anyi Prefecture guards chose to set down their blades and curled up like shrimp.

Guan Yibo, who was hiding behind a column in the corridor, covered her mouth tightly. She abruptly leaned back and softly took several breaths before swiftly heading back to her courtyard.

Guan Yibo ran back to their housing compound and suddenly laughed loudly at the sky.

Concubine Jiang walked out and saw her daughter acting like this. She could not help but ask in astonishment, "What's happening outside, Bo'er."

"Mom! Let's go. We're leaving right now." Guan Yibo helped her mother up and started walking outside. "Don't bother so much. This clan has offended a formidable power. It's completely over for the clan."

"What?" Concubine Jiang yelped in shock and hastily gripped her daughter's arm. "What happened? Bo'er, quickly tell Mom."

"There's no time, Mom. We have to leave this hellhole first." Guan Yibo had completely lost all hope in this clan.

Even if she had to give up all of this and leave alone with her mom, she had nothing to hesitate about.

Everyone in this clan was a stranger. Besides her mom, no one had truly treated her sincerely. In that case…

*Bang!* A staggering figure crashed open the door to their room.

Madam Hua looked in terror at them. "Sixth… Sixth Young Lady, Sixth Young Lady!"

"Please, bring me away with you, Sixth Young Lady!"

The forces outside had turned into a jumbled mess. Those young concubines in the official mansion without the strength to truss a chicken lived in comfort and had never encountered such an issue.

Each of them would only cry when they encountered an incident.

Her boy servant and maidservant had swept away a lot of wealth. They had no time to care about their masters' escape, only caring about finding a place to escape.

Madam Hua's two personal maidservants had also fled with a lot of wealth.

Madam Hua was only a delicate beauty. She promptly panicked and had no idea what to do.

"Sister Jiang, br-bring me with you. Please, I beg you." Madam Hua carried a bundle and called out repeatedly.

Guan Yibo looked at her. Suddenly, a knife hand strike hit the back of Madam Hua's neck.

Madam Hua's eyes turned round from shock. She limply slid down the wall.

Guan Yibo snatched away the bundle in her hands and opened it. When she saw the large number of cores and spirit currency inside, she quickly put it away in her inner world.

"B-Bo'er!" Concubine Jiang cowered and asked, "Won't, won't it be bad for, for you to do that?"

"The strong prey on the weak, with survival of the fittest." Guan Zhaotang waved her fist and looked coldly at Madam Hua. "This woman made trouble for you because she had Guan Zhaotang's favor. I'm only taking revenge right now. Mom, you cannot be soft-hearted. Let's go."

Concubine Jiang sighed. She nodded and walked out with her daughter. She subconsciously looked back at Madam Hua who had collapsed inside the doors.

One's fate really could not be controlled.

"Mom, don't worry. We will live much better after leaving the Guan Clan."
