"Girl, stay here. The rest of you, get out!"
The tall old man said coldly to the ten people.
"Senior, I don't think your goal is me, but the thing on my body, right?"
The girl probed.
"Hehe, girl, you're quite smart. You guessed it so quickly."
"Since that's the case, I'll be frank. Hand over that thing and I'll spare your lives."
The short old man spoke from behind.
"May I ask where senior is from? If there's a chance in the future, I'll definitely pay you a visit!"
The girl's big brother knew that he couldn't escape tonight, so he said a sentence.
It meant that he admitted defeat today and they'll see how it goes in the future.
The young master curled his lips and mocked, "You want revenge with just your strength?
There's no harm in telling you. I live in Gaze Homestead City. "
"My uncle is the Grand Marshal of the empire."
"Now you know who I am, right?"
After saying that, the young master shook his head proudly.
"What?
You're the young master of Gaze Homestead City, Li Jiu? "
The girl and the others exclaimed.
Emperor Li Sheng, the Grand Marshal of the empire, Emperor Li, and the empire's number one family, the Li Family.
Gaze Homestead City's City Lord, Li Ming, and they were all part of the imperial family.
The current emperor, Li Sheng, was Li Jiu's second uncle.
"So it's Ninth Young Master Li. We have eyes but failed to see. We apologize to Eldest Young Master here."
The girl didn't move, and the others bowed respectfully.
They were just a small family in the periphery of the imperial capital, not even a third-rate family. How could they have the guts to challenge the imperial family?
They only felt a little strange. How did Li Jiu know that they were going to Horizon Mountain Range to look for the family's heirloom treasure?
"Cut the crap. Hand over the treasure map and you can get out."
"But you have to stay with me for the night."
Li Jiu pointed at the girl with a greedy look in his eyes.
"Sister, give the treasure map to Ninth Young Master Li. We're already the sixth generation of the family, but we still haven't found the treasure."
"The family is getting poorer and poorer. We can't hold on any longer. Why don't we just give up?"
"Brother, this is what the first ancestor left for us. It belongs to our family. How can we give it to an outsider?"
"Little sister, if you don't hand it over, not only will you, the big brother, die, but it will also implicate the whole family. We will have no descendants!"
"Over my dead body! The Old Ancestor will avenge us!"
"Little sister, you …"
"Alright, alright, you have to hand it over today even if you don't want to. Do you think you can keep the treasure map if you die?
I will search your entire body bit by bit. "
"Not a single inch will be missed, hehe!"
"Your ancestor died a long time ago. I've waited for so many years, but he still hasn't shown up."
"Do you think that your Dongfang Clan was able to live safely in Little River Town for so many years because of your hard work?"
"Do you think that there are so many second and third-rate clans in the Imperial Capital that are afraid of you?"
"They are afraid of our Li family. Without the Li family's permission, who would dare to touch you?"
"Your Dongfang family should be grateful for all these years of care. Hand over the treasure map."
As soon as Li Jiu's voice fell, Zhang Xing's eyes lit up.
The Dongfang family!
Little River Town.
Isn't this where I want to go?
"Oh!
I understand now. I was wondering why Father, Grandfather, and Great Grandfather were unwilling to deal with your Li family. It turns out that they have already seen through your true colors. "
The girl with the surname Dongfang said.
"Alright, enough nonsense. Elders, take them down. I want to personally search this beauty's body!"
Li Jiu rubbed his hands. His eyes were glowing with a green light as he said excitedly.
