After all, the more he stared, the more likely they were to discover him. And he already knew they were on their way.
The less he did, the more they would think they had the upper hand.
And as long as they entered the array, everything would be simple.
「Several more hours passed.」
The Enchantresses had not yet appeared.
But Xu Lei knew they had arrived.
He had an agreement with the middle-aged man, the villa owner's confidant.
At set intervals, if everything was normal, the man was to send Xu Lei a signal using a specific, hidden method.
The agreed-upon interval had long passed, but there was no sign of the middle-aged confidant's signal.
Therefore, Xu Lei guessed that the Enchantresses had come.
And they were likely being quite cautious.
They hadn't charged directly into the villa.
Instead, they had secretly captured the confidant when he was outside.
The villa owner's confidant was unlikely to betray him.
So Xu Lei wasn't worried.
