NovelEnglishA big chess game! The north had now beca huge chess game, and all the powers in the north were on the chessboard.
How much effort had this taken? But nobody had realized this was happening until this news was suddenly leaked and caught everyone off guard. Long Xiang's expression was stern and his voice was low. He had never been so somber before.
"But, we are pawns in this gtoo!" The next thing he said made everyone's expression as stern as his.
The implications of these words were tremendous and they were difficult to bear.

"This is a really huge effort," Long Xiang frowned. Even though the Long family was part of this mess, he couldn't help but admire this person. "I don't know who was incredible enough to actually even make the Long family part of this without us knowing. Before this, I would have never thought that something like that could happen." He had been watching the north very closely. Even the slightest movement wouldn't escape his eye.
He wasn't the only one watching either. There were so many others keeping an eye on things every single day like him.
One needed this sort of vigilance and observant skills in order to survive in the north. You had to notice a problem as early as possible and nip it in the bud before the problem grew bigger.
But before anyone had realized anything, someone had already set up this huge chess gof the north. The Long family was a pawn along with everyone else.
"Where does the information cfrom?" asked one of them.
"Nobody knows, it's a very well hidden channel. Even I don't know at the moment." Long Xiang scoffed. "Did you think someone capable of doing something like this would reveal himself so easily?" "But there's one thing I'm sure of. The person behind all of this must be hiding inside one of the supremely powerful families!" His words made everyone wary.
The north had only four supremely powerful families. Besides the Long family, there was the Pang family, the Xue family and the Jiang family.
All these years, the Pang family kept a low profile. The Xue family and Jiang family had a marriage of convenience many years back, but the two families didn't seem to be any closer even after more than a decade. And so these families were even more suspicious! "Can't we clarify our stand?" someone else asked. "Even though we don't have to be bothered by a bunch of second tier families, things might get tricky if others continue to misunderstand us." "Clarify our stand? Do you think anyone will believe us?" scoffed Long Xiang.
It was hard to see anything on this already messy chessboard. But the moment someone was singled out and labeled as the mastermind, the chessboard instantly cto life and it would becmore dangerous and unpredictable.
Any of the pawns could suddenly be eliminated, and even the Long family was no exception.

"Alright now, I don't have to say anymore. I called everyone here today because I want to tell you to be on your guard from today onwards." He said in a loud voice, "Especially those who have important positions in Linglong Group. All of you had better be careful in the things you say and the things you do, understand?" "Yes, Master Long," everyone replied in unison.
He turned to look at Long Ling'er and said, "Ling'er, Linglong Group is too large and it's not the t's not just a trump card for family, but more of a burden. Do you understand what I'm trying to say?" "I understand," Long Ling'er nodded. "I know what to do." "That's good." Long Xiang nodded and got up.
He didn't want to say too much. There was no point in saying too much at this juncture. The chess gwas going to keep changing, and they would just have to keep adapting along the way. Everyone else left and only Long Ling'er was still in the hall.
"You have something to tell me?" Long Xiang was about to leave the hall when Long Ling'er called out to him.
"Yes," Long Ling'er nodded. She waited until everyone had left before whispering to her father, "Dad, there are a few members of the Long family who have too much involvement in Linglong Group. On top of that, they're also very closely connected to speople from other families. I don't think this is a good sign." Long Xiang frowned. "Are you talking about your Third Uncle?"
