Chapter 11 The Dugu Family
As if she had penetrated a thin layer of plastic, Long Xiaoqi just felt a little resistance on her body, and then disappeared.
Through this boundary, you can see a brand-new world.
As if returning to ancient times, high-rise buildings do not exist here at all. There are only chic and generous attices and halls. Strange flowers and plants, rare trees are no longer ordinary here, and occasionally animals can be seen playing, as if this is not a place where humans live at all, but a vast primitive forest.
Wang Xianyi was standing not far away, looking at Long Xiaoqi, who was a little stunned with a smile, and seemed to be a little disdainful.
"Let's go! I have contacted the clan, and the patriarchs are waiting for us inside!" Wang Xianyi turned around and was about to leave.
"Wait! Didn't you say you would take me to see my father first?" Long Xiaoqi quickly caught up with Wang Xianyi and stopped him from leaving.
"Don't worry! I won't lie to you. You will see your father soon. Looking at Wang Xianyi's treacherous smile, Long Xiaoqi's heart thumped, and there was always a bad feeling.
"Have you been tricked by Wang Xianyi?" Long Xiaoqi's face was full of serious expressions. Although she was a little hesitant, she still followed Wang Xianyi's footsteps.
Through a forest, Long Xiaoqi can clearly see the buildings inside. Very simple, but very solemn, just like the ancient royal palace, it is magnificent and shows endless domineering.
"This is the main hall of our Dugu family. Generally, guests or anything more important will be in it." Wang Xianyi walked while introducing it to Long Xiaoqi.
When it came to the territory of the Dugu family, Long Xiaoqi did not dare to be too presumptuous. She carefully followed Wang Xianyi, but she was already nervous.
"Viting the patriarch!" Wang Xianyi walked in and quickly knelt on the ground, as if he had seen the king.
Long Xiaoqi just wanted to raise her head and look at the person sitting on it, but she didn't think that the foot of her trousers seemed to be pulled by something, and her body involuntarily fell down.
"Forget it! Get up! Prepare a seat for our guests." A deep voice echoed throughout the hall. I don't know why Long Xiaoqi always feels that this voice is very special. The sound is not too loud, but it can be clearly heard and remembered in her heart.
There is no need to say more. Soon someone moved a chair next to it, and Long Xiaoqi sat on it rudely. At this time, Long Xiaoqi had time to raise her head and look at the person sitting on it.
A huge golden chair sat a burly man. Although Long Xiaoqi was very confident in her figure, compared with that person, he became a child completely. There are still eight men sitting next to this man. Everyone wears different colors of clothes, and everyone's expressions are different.
"I am the patriarch of the Dugu family - Duguyun. Sitting next to me are the eight elders of the Dugu family, and you will naturally know them when you have a chance in the future. Except for the two deputy patriarchs who were not present today, all the other senior personnel have arrived. Duguyun said calmly, with no expression on his face.
Long Xiaoqi looked around. In addition to the eight elders in Duguyun's mouth, several people sat below nine people. Although these people's status is not high compared with those people, in Long Xiaoqi's view, these people are not simple.
"Okay! Let me say first, our Dugu family has no malice in asking you to come this time. Things have reached this point today. Although our Dugu family has an inescapable responsibility, this is also a last resort. Speaking of this, Dugu Yun paused and seemed to want to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.
"I heard Xianyi say that you agree to our request. In fact, this matter is not only to complete the task of our lonely family, but also has great benefits for everyone in the world." Duguyun glanced at Long Xiaoqi and seemed to remind him of something.
"I just want to see my father now. As for the rest, let's wait!" Long Xiaoqi looked at Duguyun without hesitation without hesitation.
"Presumptuous! How dare you talk to the patriarch like this! Don't you want to live?" Before Duguyun spoke, an elder in a red brocade robe beside him had already spoken first.
Duguyun raised his hand, gently pressed it, shook his head, and motioned the elder not to speak.
And Long Xiaoqi didn't say much, but snorted in a muffled voice, turned her head, and ignored the others.
"I can agree to your request, but your father is now in a breakthrough period. If you go there, it will only be harmful and useless. You'd better think about it yourself!" Duguyun's voice was without any waves, as if the sky had nothing to do with him when it fell.
"What? Breakthrough period?" Long Xiaoqi couldn't believe her ears. When did the Dugu family help her father break through?
"Yes! If it goes well, then he will be able to break through the third-level advanced level of green spirit. The reason why we do this is to tell you that our Dugu family is not malicious. As for the rest, you can also choose to tell you after your father exits the customs. Duguyun looked at Long Xiaoqi and seemed to care about Long Xiaoqi's reaction.
"So... when can my father get out of the customs?" Long Xiaoqi almost gritted her teeth and asked. The Long family and the Dugu family do not know each other. Since the Dugu family is willing to help their father break through, I'm afraid this friendship is not easy to pay off. Besides, the Dugu family is an enemy or a friend. Long Xiaoqi's heart has no idea yet. In case Dugu Yun just pretends to help the Dragon War Army break through and other conspiracies, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with it at that time.
"From five days to ten days, you can see your father."
"In that case, I'll wait here. If what you say is true, then we are talking about the next thing." With that, Long Xiaoqi had stood up as if she was going to leave, but on second thought, this was in the territory of the Dugu family. Where can he go?
"Okay! I promise you! But you can't go anywhere these days. I will send someone to take care of you in our lonely family. Duguyun said in an irresistible tone. Although Long Xiaoqi was very reluctant, she had no choice but to accept it.
"Okay! Let's all go! That's all for today's matter. Let Xiaoqi have a rest first. After saying that, Duguyun waved his hand heavily and signaled that everyone could leave. Long Xiaoqi was also invited by two servants. Long Xiaoqi squeaked her lips, but in the end she still said nothing, but left dejectedly.
Long Xiaoqi was the only one in the empty room, but somehow he always felt that someone was watching him around here. Thinking that everyone has different reactions to themselves in the main hall today, there is an inexplicable panic in Long Xiaoqi's heart. Almost everyone in the Dugu family should not be underestimated. Although he could not see through the realm of Duguyun, Long Xiaoqi felt that Duguyun was at least the peak of the fifth level of green spirit. Before he came here, he had never seen the existence of such a realm.
"Forget it, as long as my father is fine. Maybe he can give me some advice when he comes out." Long Xiaoqi pouted, as if there was something wrong in her heart. However, now that I have fallen into the hands of the Dugu family, I can't control my life and death. How can I be happy?
In a house on the left side of the lobby, Duguyun and the eight elders were prominently lined up. Among them, the elder in a red brocade robe seemed to be very unhappy and his face was full of anger.
"Four Elders! Although we once helped the Oriental family, these are all forced. Now if we kill him, who will complete this mission? Duguyun's face was very ugly. He didn't expect these guys to stand up against him at this time.
"Hmm! Why does the patriarch think that Long Xiaoqi must be that person? He is much more talented than him. We have a lot of people in the Dugu family. The four elders seemed to be very unconvinced and said righteously.
"You should know that our family will always be just a guardian, and the chosen person will never appear in our lonely family." It seems that the scar of Duguyun has been poked, and the temperament of the whole person has changed.
And the four elders in red didn't say anything more, but turned their heads unconvinced.
"All right, all right. Don't say a few words! I think it's better to discuss this matter when the two deputy patriarchs come back. This is not a trivial matter. It may be related to the fate of our Dugu family! Therefore, each of us should not take it lightly. Thinking that the old man in a white brocade robe stood up slowly, it seemed that he must be the oldest of these people.
"E elder, do you also think I'm reckless?" Duguyun couldn't take his eyes off the old man in a white brocade robe with respect on his face.
"This matter is related to the lifeblood of my Dugu family, and no accident is allowed, no matter who it is." The elder looked at Duguyun with a stern face, and his tone was full of toughness.
Everyone in the Dugu family knows that the elder has extraordinary power in the clan, and even has a tendency to faintly surpass Duguyun, and Duguyun does not have any displeasure, because the great elders have made great contributions to this day. Therefore, no matter what, Duguyun will give the elder face. Sometimes even if it is wrong, he will not refute it.
"Then let's discuss it when the two deputy patriarchs come back!" Duguyun nodded and was powerless on the chair.
