The Hidden Guard, or rather, the White Tiger Guard.
The more Chen Yi came into contact with them, the more he felt their purpose in Shu State was unclear.
Like the dark clouds obscuring the bright moon outside his window, the secrets behind them remained shrouded.
For example, he had already confirmed that Hawk, Ge the Third, and the others wanted him to become an official, gain prestige, or secure a position within the Xiao Family.
They essentially wanted him to possess "prestige" and "power."
But what then?
Was he to be used as a puppet to control the Xiao Family, or something else?
If they wanted him to control the Xiao Family, the Old Master, Xiao Jinghong, and Xiao Wuge were three obstacles that could not be bypassed.
Unless the Hidden Guard made a move and killed those three, he would be unable to control the Xiao Family, no matter his official status or prestige.
