Chapter 172: Bargaining Chips
Chen Nuo's approach was quite simple.
If you kidnap two of my people, I'll kidnap four of yours.
If not for the extreme time pressure and the incomplete intelligence on the Guo Clan within Xi'an, he wouldn't have limited himself to the four somewhat valuable targets he could find out in the open. Chen Nuo would very likely have planned to kidnap even more people.
With bargaining chips in hand, Chen Nuo was ready to initiate contact and negotiate with the Snow Domain Sect's Guo Clan. This was standard procedure for Chen Yanluo. Without bargaining chips, Chen Nuo generally would not act.
Unfortunately, according to what he managed to pry from the wastrel, the Guo Clan's ancestral home was not located in Xi'an City.
Chen Nuo tossed a phone to the most timid of the group.
"Call home. Don't call anyone irrelevant—make sure it's the highest-ranking person you can reach within your Guo Clan."
