It’s no wonder that Pei Xingchen is so vigilant. Such things have happened too many times in the history of the Pei family.

It seems that they have reached a tacit understanding, but they suddenly attack the opponent at the most unlikely time, and then completely defeat the opponent, and take the fruits of victory alone.

Pei Jia himself is an expert in this art and has used this technique many times in battles with the enemies.

Moreover, such incidents have occurred many times within the Pei family.

With such a good example in front of him, how could Pei Xingchen possibly believe Pei Qingniao's words and evacuate all personnel without authorization?

So Pei Xingchen simply rejected Pei Qingniao, and also brought up Pei Runnian, claiming that Pei Qingniao's retreat plan had not even been reported to Pei Runnian, so how dare she give such an order?

This was also a point that made Pei Xingchen suspicious, so he took the opportunity to raise this point and asked Pei Qingniao to find Pei Runnian to report the whole story.

Only when Pei Runnian gave the order would Pei Xingchen truly retreat. Any other situation would absolutely not allow Pei Xingchen to retreat.

As for what Pei Qingniao said about someone outside attacking and deliberately trying to enter the underground base to cause damage, Pei Xingchen really didn't take it seriously.

Just as he said before, all the apprentices in the underground base were hardcore apprentices trained by him. Thousands of big men with powerful fighting skills are such a huge force!

Even if an enemy really had infiltrated, one person's spit would be enough to drown the enemy, so there would be no need to make such a big retreat.

Even though Pei Qingniao described the situation as so urgent, Pei Xingchen was not in a hurry.

He knew how strict the entry verification was to the underground training base, so it was not easy to sneak in.

Even if the other party sneaked in, the first people they would have to face would be the more than a thousand burly men under his command. What kind of trouble could they cause?

So Pei Xingchen is not in a hurry, he is really not in a hurry.

After rejecting Pei Qingniao, Pei Xingchen found a chair and sat down. He took out an aluminum tube containing cigars from his arms, pulled out a cigar from it, and cut off the cigar cap with a light stroke of his fingertips.

With a light rub of his fingers, sparks immediately appeared on the cigar. Pei Xingchen sat down comfortably, puffing smoke and looking at Pei Qingniao coldly.

Pei Qingniao was so angry at Pei Xingchen that his face turned ashen. He gritted his teeth and veins bulged on his forehead. It looked like he wanted to shoot Pei Xingchen, the bastard, to death.

As for Fang Zhiming, who was used as a tool by Pei Xingchen to disgust Pei Qingniao, he huddled there obediently like a quail, not daring to say a word. He carefully circulated the recovered internal energy in his body to heal his injuries, fearing that any extra noise would provoke the anger of Pei Xingchen and Pei Qingniao, leading to a more tragic end.

After a long silence, Pei Qingniao took a deep breath, finally suppressed the anger in his heart, and spoke through gritted teeth.

"You are right. I should indeed inform the Patriarch."

"But now all the networks here have been cut off. If we want to notify the owner, we must have my people go to the ground and leave the building to call the owner."

"This back and forth takes too long and is too risky."

"So my condition is that I can report what happened here to the Patriarch, but during this period of time, you must also mobilize your people to put the entire underground base under martial law and strictly check every corner to ensure that no outsiders have infiltrated!"

"This is not a fight between you and me. This is for the benefit of the family, and for the benefit of you and me!"

"As long as the underground training base remains intact, it will benefit both you and me."

"But if it is really destroyed, then you and I will both suffer. When the family master is furious and holds someone responsible, will he blame me for giving the warning in advance but being ignored, or you for receiving the warning but doing nothing?"

Pei Qingniao looked directly at Pei Xingchen with extremely sharp eyes, and said word by word that made Pei Xingchen suddenly tense up all over.

Pei Xingchen paused and bit his cigar tightly. The smoke rising up covered his face, but it couldn't hide his eyes that were as sharp as a wolf's and exuded cold murderous intent.

Pei Qingniao stared at Pei Xingchen without giving in. The determination in his eyes was as firm as a rock and unshakable, which finally made Pei Xingchen's eyes flicker.

Pei Xingchen held a cigar, blew out a puff of thick smoke, and spoke in a cold voice.

"Someone is coming."

A thin man appeared silently from the darkness behind him, bowed slightly and stood behind Pei Xingchen.

Pei Xingchen gave the order without even turning his head.

"Have everyone crawl out of that damn dormitory and go to the armory to get equipment. Also, put the entire base under martial law and search every inch of it."

"If you find any signs of intrusion by outsiders, report it to me immediately and start tracking it down on the spot immediately."

"Remember, if you really find an intruder, capture him alive."

"I want to see with my own eyes who is so bold as to come to my territory and cause trouble."

The thin man responded softly and disappeared into the darkness once again.

When Pei Qingniao saw that Pei Xingchen was finally shaken, his tense mind couldn't help but relax a little.

As long as Pei Xingchen starts to act, it will be fine. What she fears most is that Pei Xingchen does not take any action.

Pei Xingchen expressed his decision with practical actions. Pei Qingniao also waved and called his bodyguard, instructing him to leave Tianbo Building and find other places with smooth communications to call Pei Runnian to report and ask whether he could leave the underground base.

Pei Qingniao emphasized to the bodyguard that he must get Pei Runnian's decision before returning.

The bodyguard nodded in response and also walked quickly towards the entrance of the underground base, preparing to leave the underground base and go to the ground to report the news to Pei Runnian.

As soon as the people on both sides left, the scene fell into silence again.

Pei Xingchen looked at the cigar silently. Pei Qingniao didn't have the energy to speak anymore. She asked the bodyguard to help her sit down and close her eyes to rest.

But the silence did not last long, and soon a noisy sound came from behind them, and the sound became louder and louder, with rumbling footsteps coming from far away.

Soon, a group of strong men in uniform and holding various weapons came out.

When they reached the hall, they split into two teams.

A group of people stood silently behind Pei Xingchen to protect his safety.

Another group of people quickly moved towards the entrance, strengthened entrance security, and checked for any signs of intrusion by outsiders.

Everything is so well organized.
