Chapter 2222
2222 The ning family’s storm (3)
“It doesn’t matter, it’s more lively with more people!” Leng ruoxue didn’t take this trip to the Yao family seriously at all. Furthermore, she really did have the thought of going out to relieve her boredom. She felt that in the past few days, uncle long and the others must have been holding a grudge in their hearts because of the reward notice from Wushan. If this grudge couldn’t be released in time, what if it caused the people around her to be suffocated?
Hence, for the sake of their health, Leng ruoxue also hoped that they could go out with her to relax. As for those people at the foot of the mountain, if they were willing to guard it, then let them do so. She would just treat it as if they were watching over her house!
“I do want to go out, but I still have to consider our bounty!” Dongfang Lin said softly. The bounty on their side was also a counterattack against the fog ice sect. It was considered an official declaration of war against the fog ice sect. Therefore, he regarded it more seriously than Leng ruoxue. However, he was also quite interested in Leng ruoxue’s suggestion. Hence, he was in a dilemma.
“Thinking while strolling will help you write a touching reward!” Leng ruoxue coaxed.
“Really? Then I’ll go!” Hearing this, Dongfang Lin immediately made his stand.
“I’ll go too!” Uncle long said.
With these two people taking the lead, the people present were actually eager to follow the Yao family to see the show. Seeing this, the face of the ning family’s master darkened.
“Do you really think we’re going out for a scenic tour?” The master of the ning family stood up from his seat in anger and roared.
“Old man ning, calm down! Actually, it’s not like there are no benefits for us to go! At least, we can see the ugly faces of some people with our own eyes, and if you get into a fight with them, we can help!” First elder saw that the master of the ning family was furious and quickly comforted him.
“Godfather, everyone should go! When they’re free, they can just stay in the house. If there’s a commotion, they can see it through the house. If anyone wants to come out for a breath of fresh air, just let me know. It’s fine if they don’t want to come out, just like when they’re at home, nothing will be affected. ” Leng ruoxue also consoled him.
“Right! Right! Xue ‘er and I have our own houses, enough for everyone to live in. Furthermore, we promise to be obedient and not cause any trouble for you. ” The first elder guaranteed on behalf of the group.
“You …” Hearing this, the master of the ning family was particularly helpless. Moreover, seeing the eager eyes of everyone present, he could only nod in agreement.
Just like that, the next morning, Leng ruoxue and the rest led the large group and set off.
Of course, on the surface, there were only Leng ruoxue, the evildoer, master of the ning family and Cang. In order to hide from the public, the three humans and one beast had specially consumed the appearance-changing pill. This time, Cang had changed into the appearance of a cat.
When the three people and one beast went down the mountain, they did not attract the attention of many forces at the foot of the mountain. Those people thought they were from other forces. How could they know that the ning family’s main residence had long been empty!
After they were far away from the territory of the demonic lands, Leng ruoxue moved uncle long, Dongfang Lin, Dongfang Yue, Ao Jie, and the others out. The team of three people and one beast instantly grew a lot!
Looking at this group, the master of the ning family was a little depressed. He didn’t want to bring so many people. After all, they had to go back to the ning family before going to the Yao family’s divine realm. If some blind people in the ning family said something they shouldn ‘t, wouldn’t he lose all his face and dignity in front of these people? However, when he saw the strength of these people, he was rather gratified because the combat power by Xue ‘er’s side was definitely not weaker than any of the eight great divine regions.
In his opinion, the people around Xue ‘er were even stronger than the ning family!
“Ning family boy, don’t dawdle, quickly bring us to the ning family!” Uncle long couldn’t help but smile and urge the master of the ning family.
“Yes.” The master of the ning family nodded and summoned his flying beast. He carried Leng ruoxue and the rest and flew straight to the ning family’s divine territory.
After arriving at the ning family’s God domain, they didn’t waste any time and headed straight for the ning family’s main city.
The ning family’s second elder, who had received the news long ago, had already brought people to stand at the city gate in advance, respectfully waiting for their arrival.
The second elder of the ning family learned from his master that the former war god of the divinity, Dongfang Yue, and the others were with him this time. He was so nervous that he didn’t know where to put his hands and feet.
Leng ruoxue and the rest had just reached the city gates when her sharp eyes spotted second elder looking around cautiously.
“Second elder!” Leng ruoxue called out softly. Second elder raised his head and saw his clan head with a serious expression. He quickly jogged over to welcome him.
“Patriarch, seniors, welcome! Welcome!” The second elder of the ning family said very enthusiastically, but the cold sweat on his forehead revealed his nervousness at the moment.
“You’re really welcoming us? We’re in big trouble now, aren’t we?” Uncle long teased.
Upon hearing this, the second elder’s cold sweat dripped down even more. Because other than his own family head, the others were all in disguise, so he didn’t know who the person who ridiculed him was. The only thing he could be sure of was that these people were all older than him, and he couldn’t afford to offend any of them!
“Uncle long, stop teasing the second elder.” At this moment, Leng ruoxue kindly helped second elder out of his predicament, and she received a grateful look from him.
Ever since Leng ruoxue’s relationship with second elder and the others improved, second elder had become her staunch supporter. Naturally, Leng ruoxue would have to take care of him.
And because of Leng ruoxue’s care, second elder’s status with the family head naturally rose in a straight line. Thus, second elder was happy to return the favor. Therefore, other than the family head, second elder had no lack of contact with Leng ruoxue, and would chat with her when they were free.
After calming down, the second elder looked at Leng ruoxue and said to his family head with a serious expression,””Master, third brother is back.”
“When did you come back?” Hearing this, the master of the ning family couldn’t help but frown and ask.
“Two hours ago,” The second elder quickly said.
“Oh! You don’t have to report to me about such a small matter. ” The master of the ning family said indifferently.
“Master, as soon as third brother came back, he wanted to go to the land of demons to find you, but I stopped him …” The second elder wanted to say something, but he stopped. Although he only said half of it, the master of the ning family already understood what he meant.
“I know.” The master of the ning family nodded slightly, then led Leng ruoxue and the rest towards the ning family’s main residence.
When they arrived at the main residence and settled Leng ruoxue and the rest, master ning ordered second elder to bring third elder to his study room.
In the study.
As soon as the third elder saw the master of the ning family, he immediately said straightforwardly,””Old ancestor, the Divine Master’s estate is offering a reward for Leng ruoxue’s arrest. Hence, I think we should draw a clear line with her immediately. Otherwise, we will incur the wrath of the masses in the divine world!”
“What did you just say?” Hearing this, master ning narrowed his eyes and his tone became colder.
“I said that we should draw a clear line between us and Leng ruoxue, so that we won’t be implicated by her! After offending the Divine Master, she still wants to establish herself in the divine realm? isn’t that a fool’s dream?” Although the third elder was very afraid of his father, he still mustered up the courage to say it. Moreover, he felt that he was doing this for the good of the ning family. With this thought, his confidence also increased a lot.
“Is this your personal idea, or …” Master ning asked, slightly raising his eyes.
“I’ve asked many elders, and they all have the same idea. ” The third elder quickly said.
“In that case, bring all the elders who have this idea to me! I want to hear them say it themselves!” The expression on master ning’s face was very calm, and no one could guess what he was thinking.
“Yes!” Hearing his own father’s words, third elder was secretly happy. He felt that there was a way!
Then, he turned around and left master ning’s study.
After he left, the second elder said worriedly,””Master, I didn’t expect him to be back in such a short time and already …”
The second elder was clear that third elder had always hated Leng ruoxue to the core because of the previous incident. He had also thought that Leng ruoxue would make things difficult for him because of this incident. However, second elder had never expected that third elder would be able to convince a portion of the elders to stand on his side within a short two hours of his return.
But when second elder saw the number of elders third elder had brought into the study, second elder’s heart instantly became cold, because the number of ning family elders who had the same thoughts as third elder was at least half of all the ning family elders, and many of them were his people!
Seeing these people, the second elder couldn’t help but tremble with anger, and those elders who had originally followed his lead all lowered their heads, not daring to look at him!
“You all want me to draw a clear line with Xue ‘er, right?” Master ning’s cold eyes swept over the elders before he asked.
“Master! This is all for the safety of our ning family!” The third elder said with a righteous expression.
“I’m not asking you! I’m asking them!” The master of the ning family reproached unhappily.
“You guys tell me! Say it one by one!” After yelling at the third elder, the master of the ning family turned to the elders present.
