章 373: Chapter 320: Du Family Patriarch

"A monster?" Hearing this, Liu Haiping couldn't help but shrink her neck.

Yang Xiao sneered silently in his heart, this was clearly a performance the villagers put on for outsiders like them, playing good-cop-bad-cop. It might fool someone like Liu Haiping, but seasoned players like Cheng Cha, Tong Han, and Sui Chengguo remained unfazed. Tong Han just kept his head down and continued eating his porridge as if he hadn't heard a thing.

Following the normal course of events, they should expect to be ensnared in a trap next.

However, to Yang Xiao's slight surprise, the Du Family Patriarch didn't explain further but instead gestured with his hands, urging them to finish their meal and leave quickly, adding that it would be too late if they delayed.

The villagers below seemed to hold great respect for the Patriarch; after he stated his position, though they were reluctant, not a single person dared to object.
