Chapter 1127: Chapter 1126: Who Left the Note

Beisitian was uncertain about many things, and didn’t want to speak recklessly, so she only shared her current plan.

"Moreover, stepping out now doesn’t benefit us in any way, since the other side hasn’t done anything yet. If we did step out, who would we demand justice from? The Nie Family?" Beisitian asked.

Everyone exchanged looks. Their initial subconscious plan was indeed to demand justice from the Nie Family, because no matter how you looked at it, the Nie Family was the leader of the Ancient Families. If they spoke up, the others wouldn’t dare go too far.

But with Beisitian stating it so openly, everyone suddenly realized just how foolish their subconscious thought was. No matter how you spun it, the Nie Family was an Ancient Family; how could they possibly advocate for them? At that point, it might be the Nie Family that ends up swallowing the most.

What were they thinking at the time?

The five of them now felt a bit embarrassed. Sitting here now were people all over fifty, their faces flushed with shame. It truly was embarrassing.

Beisitian didn’t feel so perturbed. The antics of the Ancient Families were meant to provoke the Modern Families into acting irrationally. Actually, before participating in this garden party, apart from the enigmatic confidence of the Wen Family, the others felt quite uneasy.

The Ancient Families demonstrated extraordinary power and influence right off the bat; it would be strange not to worry about everything they currently had. It was precisely because they were worried and aware of the other side’s capabilities that the families and clan sects present had little confidence.

The less confidence one had, sometimes the easier one was to get emotional or be influenced by external factors. The Ancient Families repeatedly used words and actions to provoke the Modern Family clan sects, naturally stirring up a series of conflicts.

Whether this was done deliberately or truly expressed the thoughts of the Ancient Families remains unknown.

Beisitian recalled what Gu Haiqing said when he found her. If what he said was true, then the Ancient Families genuinely aimed to find the person they were looking for to confront the Nie Family, not to annex the Modern Families—at least not yet.

If Gu Haiqing’s words were false, then was it just creating a facade? It’s meaningless doing so.

Beisitian naturally wouldn’t just rely on others’ words. Based on her observations and intelligence gathered, the Ancient Families’ focus certainly was on the Nie Family.

As for why the current situation has arisen, Beisitian was also puzzled.

"Gentlemen, frankly speaking, all we can do now is watch the situation unfold," Beisitian said.

These people had lived most of their lives and would understand with simple prompting. Rather than being influenced by those others, they might as well act as bystanders for now, watching them bounce around until clues emerge.

"Doctor Bei is right, there’s nothing we can do about it now," Chu Zhicheng remarked with a bitter smile.

Zhang Wenxing sighed, "The world is changing so fast. Since we can’t do anything now, I still hope Doctor Bei will keep us informed and maintain the flow of information."

Beisitian agreed with this point, and immediately formed a temporary alliance with these five families.

The five of them seemed in low spirits and left after conversing briefly with Beisitian, clearly heading back to discuss matters.

"Master, what is this?" Wei Zhongxun asked, retrieving a piece of paper from under the cup on the other side of the low table; he remembered there wasn’t any paper before.

Beisitian took the note, opened it, her face surrounded by solemnity, and saw the words: An internal spy has emerged.
