Song Yaoyao imagined the scene and nodded in agreement.
[Then let's wait patiently a little longer!]
A few days earlier, Chen Yixiao had heard an unusual commotion outside the city, and they had guessed that fighting might have broken out.
But they had never expected the situation to turn out like this!
Since Song Yaoyao wanted to wait a few days, they would wait.
They had already waited so long. A few more days hardly mattered!
Chen Yixiao and the others also told Nian Hengzhi and Nian Qiyu what had happened outside the city.
After hearing the news, both men were so stunned that they were speechless for a long while.
Nian Hengzhi said, "I thought Fifth and Seventh would fight a grand, earth-shaking battle.
"I never expected Eldest to strike first."
Nian Qiyu said, "What I didn't expect was for Eldest and Fifth to attack from both sides. I doubt Seventh himself ever imagined he would suffer such a crushing defeat."
Nian Hengzhi said, "Heh, the world really is full of surprises!"
Nian Qiyu said, "This outcome probably caught everyone off guard."
Chen Yixiao said, "Nian Siting's men are stationed outside the city now, but some of them haven't adjusted to the local climate and conditions.
"Nian Siting wants to wait until his men recover a little before attacking!
"Nian Fengyuan is also rushing to develop a drug that can counter those snakes, insects, rats, and ants. I imagine the two sides will clash soon."
Nian Hengzhi said, "Heh, Fifth and Seventh probably never imagined that the men outside the city would belong to Eldest."
Nian Qiyu said, "Indeed. We were utterly shocked when we found out, too..."
Seven days soon passed, and Guagua's voice rang out again.
