Shangguan Menghan pouted and said with some dissatisfaction, "Grandmother, what are you saying? I'm just curious."
"Grandmother, is Young Master Feng really only seventeen years old?" Her eyes widened slightly. "I've never seen anyone reach the demigod rank at seventeen years old." "Young Master Feng is indeed only seventeen years old."
Shangguan Wan was also quite emotional. It was also the first time she had seen a seventeen-year-old demigod level cultivator. "If it wasn't like this, why would the head of the Baili family be tempted to accept young master Feng as his disciple and even make her the young master of the Baili family?
Then again.
Young Master Feng is very intelligent and scheming. The way she handles things is completely unlike a 17 year old girl. "
"In the future, you can only be on good terms with Young Master Feng. You can't be on bad terms with her. Do you remember?"
"Grandmother, I remember." Shangguan Menghan said playfully, "Grandmother, I'm going to play."
"Go, don't delay your cultivation." Shangguan Wan smiled dotingly.
"Grandmother, don't worry. I remember."
Shangguan Menghan held Shangguan Xia's hand and left the study.
Shangguan Wan frowned slightly. If she continued to let Meng Han and Shangguan Xia play together, it would not be good for Meng Han's future.
However, Meng Han had a pure personality and did not see clearly. Using a forceful method would not work. She could only take it slow.
Shangguan Menghan brought Shangguan Xia back to her room. The two sat in a chair and chatted.
"Xia Xia, do you think that Long Yu is as outstanding as the rumors say?"
Shangguan Menghan said curiously, "I've seen many handsome men. It's said that Long Yu's looks are one in a million, and he's already at the True God Stage.
Now that he's True God, his future is limitless. "
"Meng Han, I don't know."
Shangguan Xia lowered her head, her voice very soft, "I also heard it from them, but I think this rumor should be true, otherwise Young Master Feng wouldn't have married Young Master Long."
Shangguan Menghan thought about it and agreed. "I wonder what Long Yu looks like.
A three hundred year old True God level of cultivation, and a one in a million appearance. "
She rested her chin on her hands and her eyes sparkled. She had the dream of a young girl yearning for love. She really wanted to see Long Yu's graceful bearing.
She had seen too many genius cultivators, but this was the first time she had heard of such a powerful cultivator from the younger generation.
"Xia Xia, if there's a chance, I'll take you to meet Long Yu and Fung Ya-hsien."
Shangguan Xia gently shook her head, "Meng Han, I don't want to leave the family.
I heard that it's very dangerous outside. I'm afraid that going out will bring trouble to the family. "
"Don't worry, I'll protect you. Nothing will happen."
Shangguan Menghan said unhappily, "Xia Xia, it's not that I want to lecture you, but you really have to change your character. Otherwise, what will you do when you get married in the future?"
"If you're still so weak after getting married, others will bully you.
At that time, even if I want to protect you, I won't be able to do anything. "
"Meng Han, I … I will slowly change." Shangguan Xia's tone had a hint of sobbing, which made Shangguan Menghan sigh.
"Forget it, I'll ask Grandmother to help you find a good marriage in the future."
"Meng Han, thank you."
Shangguan Xia looked up at Shangguan Menghan gratefully. Her eyes were slightly red, and she looked like she was about to cry. "If it wasn't for you protecting me in the family, I don't know how miserable my life would be."
"What are you saying? We're sisters, I'll definitely protect you."
After going through so many difficulties, it took the Dugu Shun ten days to finally return to the Dugu Family.
He had been holding on to his last breath, intending to immediately discuss matters after returning to the Dugu Family to stabilize his position as the head of the family.
However, what awaited him was Dugu Li tying him up and preparing to send him to the Baili Family to apologize.
The Dugu Shun was seriously injured, and his injuries didn't improve at all because he hadn't properly healed for many days. Therefore, he had no strength to resist.
"Ancestor."
His face was pale, and his eyes were gloomy. "Why did you tie me up? I'm the head of the Dugu Family. Ancestor has no right to do this to me."
He didn't want to lose his position as the head of the family. He didn't want to become someone without power.
Dugu Li stood in front of the Dugu Shun and let out a long sigh. Behind him were the three elders of the Dugu Family and a group of guards. "Head of the family, I won't say anything about your power.
However, you shouldn't have had such a despicable and shameless idea to frame the Baili Family.
The Baili Family. "
"Do you think that the Baili Family will never recover after your goal is achieved?
No, with Barisu's temperament, after your plot succeeds, he will immediately send troops to attack the Dugu Family and fight to the death with the Dugu Family. "
Dugu Shun couldn't listen to anything at this time, and his eyes gradually turned scarlet.
He only saw that Dugu Li had allied with the three elders to seize his position as the head of the family. He couldn't wait to kill Dugu Li and the others.
"You usurped the throne …" He was so angry that he vomited a big mouthful of blood. "Everyone of the Dugu Family, listen up …"
Dugu Li guessed what Dugu Shun was going to do and knocked him out first.
At this point, the head of the family still didn't think that he was wrong and still intended to deal with them.
"Great Elder, send the Dugu Shun to the Baili Family."
Dugu Li and the others were so shocked that they broke out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, the ancestor acted in time.
Otherwise, the family would fall into internal strife with the Dugu Shun's order.
"Yes, ancestor."
Fung Ya-hsien and Long Yu had just finished cultivating and were preparing to go to the study to deal with official business when Baili Jin quickly walked into the courtyard.
"Young Master, Young Master Long."
Baili Jin bowed. "The Dugu Family's Great Elder Dugu Li just sent the Dugu Shun over. He is waiting in the side hall."
"Oh?"
Fung Ya-hsien looked at Long Yu with a smile. "The Dugu Family's ancestor is really a bold person. The only pity is that he is not the head of the Dugu Family. He can save the Dugu Family for a while, but he can't save the Dugu Family forever."
"It's time to meet the Dugu."
Long Yu nodded. The Dugu Family's problem was the root of the problem. If they didn't treat the root cause and only the symptoms, sooner or later, there would be more serious problems than now.
Moreover, the Baili Family and the Dugu Family could be considered to have shed all pretense of cordiality and would go to war sooner or later.
Even if the Dugu Shun died, the Baili Family and the Dugu Family wouldn't really reconcile.
What they were facing now was a battle with the Dugu Family and the other forces of the White Cloud Continent.
It would be very difficult for the Baili Family to win this battle. The most important thing was that the outcome was 50-50. If they weren't careful, the Baili Family would be destroyed, and he and his wife would lose their lives.
Since then, he and his wife had been preparing everything to deal with any disputes that might come at any time.
Fung Ya-hsien and Long Yu came to the side hall. The two glanced at the Dugu Shun lying on the ground and sat down at the head of the table.
