Chapter 776 - Intruders

The hall under the bright lights was lively. A somber yet elegant music was played in the background while Tang Yin was reciting the victory speech. She was standing on the small stage in place of her sister. She was very professional as she recited the script with a smile.

"The four families and the empires suffered greatly due to this conflict. We closed many subsidiaries and some of our partners who are directly involved have to close down their businesses. A great number of us have to make sacrifices and accept great losses. However, we persevere and toughened up. With four families together, the Xiong family, the Guan family, the Lu family, and my family united, no one could beat us or bring down our alliance-"

The lights suddenly died in the middle of her speech.

Tang Yin who was immersed in her inspirational speech: "..."

She was angry for a moment. Who dared to interrupt her?!

But when she heard something from the backdoor, her face changed.

The room in this building was all soundproof. So it\'s very hard to distinguish the sound. Only martial artists like her could hear that faint sound. Even the butlers turned to look at the backdoor where the sound came from. Their hearts were on guard.

The guest\'s vision turned dark. For a moment, their hearts skipped a beat. It was very unusual for an important event like this to have a power shutdown.

"What happened?"

"Could it be a power outage?"

"This is the Tang\'s family establishment. There\'s no way they have that kind of faults."

"Could it be someone cut down the power?"

This last question made the hearts of the guests tense.

Right, for a power outage to happen in the Tang family\'s building was unlikely. Their suspicious mind suddenly conjured up many unfortunate situations. If someone did this purposely, the reasons would not be good. Everyone here was a powerful figure who had offended many persons to get power as much as they can.

Just the thought of their own enemy who wanted them dead, they became terrified.

"Guards! Protect me!"

"Butler! Come here!"

"Ahh, where\'s the power getting back?!"

The hall was suddenly engulfed by terrified murmurs.

The butlers who were instructed to not move from their position followed their master\'s voices. In this situation, they have to stand aside beside their master in case the worst happened. Though, it was difficult to find their own master amidst to frantic calls of other people.

Tang Yin who was on the stage has a hard time adjusting in the dark. Like the others, she could not help but worry. She wanted to go to her grandmother. But she calmed her heart and loudly yelled to inform and instruct the guests,

"It\'s only a power outage. The lights will come back in a minute! Please calm down."

However, her voice was swallowed by the panicked shouts of the guests.

Xiong Zhi\'s cold face broke. She frowned. Her first thought was this situation was not an accident. She looked at the main door. Why the security hasn\'t arrived yet?

If the guests here were panicking, the security would come in to pacify them. But none of them showed.

A wrinkled warm hand suddenly hold hers, "Zhi\'er, don\'t be afraid." Old Xiong thought that Xiong Zhi was scared. Even he, an old experienced person felt that the situation was not simple.

Xiong Zhi turned stiff from the unexpected warmth that the usual cold and unloving old man send forth for her. A seep of warmth that only Linfeng could give entered her heart. She held her grandfather\'s hand and patted it in return. "I am not afraid."

It turned out that even her cold grandfather who was clearly unease would comfort her at a time like this.

"Master, Heiress." Zhou Min arrived at their table. Their table was easy to find even in the dark since they were one of the few people who were near the stage. Like him, the other butlers stand beside their master and call for backup in case something happened.

"What\'s the situation?" Old Xiong asked.

Zhou Min\'s face was somber.

"I can\'t contact the team outside. This is not an accident. The situation is dangerous. I contacted the other team from the Xiong mansion. They are on the way here."

When Xiong Zhi heard this, her face fell.

For someone to attack carelessly and boldly like this, only one person came to her mind.

Ming Zhi Yi.

He was the only person who could offend the four families and the powerful figures here. Would he really send people here to kill them? He was not afraid of any retaliation from all people here.? She had underestimated the man\'s insanity.

But how did he manage to do it? He was lacking power, people, and authority. Could it be, he had a hidden trump card that even Lu Jin doesn\'t know?

Since even Xiong Zhi could figure out that this was the work of Ming Zhi Yi, the old heads also realized this fact.

On the other table, Old Lu scowled.

"That bastard is truly mad! He lost in a straight fight so he is using this dirty means to retaliate." Old Lu then held Lu Yin Ze as their butler stand at their side. "Yin\'er, stay behind Butler Lu."

Lu Yin Ze\'s face was pale. He looked at Xiong Zhi\'s table. After adjusting his sight from the dark, he could see that Xiong Zhi was still on her table with Old Xiong. He saw that Zhou Min was at her side. He calmed down a little.

He then looked at the stage to check on Tang Yin.

Tang Yin who was still trying to calm the masses froze. Her eyes turned wide as she looked at the backdoor.

Lu Yin Ze followed the direction she was looking at and saw a group of people coming in. Since all the butlers all went to their master\'s table to calm them and protect them, no one was standing behind the backdoor.

That\'s why no one noticed this group of people. Since it was dark, he could not see clearly who they were. But they were carrying something strange.

At this time, Tang Yin finally realized what they were carrying. "Watch out!"

Butler Zhou Min also noticed them and acted quickly. He protected the masters at the table as something dropped to the ground in every direction.

"Intruders!"

"Ahh! They threw something on the ground-!"

Those words had not completely gotten out of their mouths when smokes filled everywhere. It also filled their lungs.

Zhou Min was quick and hold his breath. He took his handkerchief and give them to Old Xiong. He broke his shirt and covered it around Xiong Zhi\'s nose and mouth.

Zhou Min could hold his breath for two minutes.? While the others were fainting one by one, he tore another piece from his shirt and tied it around his nose and mouth. He gestured for Old Lu and Xiong Zhi to crouch down and hide under the table. He then took out his gun and watched the surrounding through the smoke.

There were at least seven people with the mask that invaded the hall.

Every family and guest could only bring one butler inside the hall. The butlers could not fight the newcomers without leaving their masters. If they fight the group, who would protect their masters? So they stay put to protect their master instead.

However, they did not expect that two whiffs of smoke would slowly take their consciousness away. As their sight was fading, they wondered, how could smoke be so lethal?

All of the people in the hall wondered, where are the experts of the Tang family?
