Chapter 370: Raising an Army to Hold the Culprit Accountable
Situ Dugu's eldest son Situ Changhe said with a smile: "My Situ family is different from the Tie family. Our family style and discipline can be a model for the royal city. This is all due to my father's strict management of the family. Si Tu Reading
М"
Others also flattered.
Situ Dugu obviously enjoyed it very much. He said excitedly: "Now that the Tie family is declining, it is time for my Situ family to rise. Let's think about how to do a big thing during this period and take back the territory and power that the Tie family had previously snatched from my family."
"The ancestor is wise. In my opinion, we should contact the Long family and divide the Tie family completely..."
"The Tie family will perish if they do too much evil. It is destined by God to destroy the Tie family. My Situ family can just annex the Tie family and rise up."
"Ancestor..."
...
The children of the Situ family talked to each other, with high morale, as if after the Tie family was defeated, this royal city would belong to the Situ family.
Among the people, only Situ Ba huddled in the corner with an ugly face and said nothing.
"Xiao Ba, why are you like this? Are you sick?"
A middle-aged warrior noticed his abnormality and asked in a strange voice.
The innate masters have different physiques from ordinary people. Generally, they can avoid all diseases. However, some people whose cultivation is not very high will also encounter disasters and various diseases.
"Uncle San, I... I'm fine. I've been practicing the first level of "Xuanyuan Holy Law" these two days. I got a short breath. I'll be fine after a rest." Situ Ba forced a smile.
"You've started practicing Xuanyuan Holy Law now? Well, you're a little impatient to practice Holy Law with your cultivation..."
The middle-aged man's eyes lit up, and he stopped talking after a few words of persuasion.
Xuanyuan Holy Law is the secret of the Situ family. Only warriors above the eighth level of innate are qualified to practice it. However, Situ Ba is the grandson of the ancestor Situ Dugu, so it is understandable that he was rewarded with an exception.
Just when Situ Ba was terrified and didn't know what to do, a communication talisman suddenly shot in from the door.
Mr. Yin behind the ancestor stepped forward and took it in his palm. Then, Mr. Yin showed a happy expression on his face and whispered a few words in Situ Dugu's ear.
"What?"
Situ Dugu also smiled and laughed, "Master Bi Ying, vice president of the Inscription Association, and Chief Alchemist Dong Qishun are visiting together? Haha... These two are famous people in powerful countries, and they are usually hard to invite... Mr. Yin, what do you think they are doing here today?"
"According to Yin's speculation, they must be here for the Tie family. Ancestor, this is an opportunity for the Situ family. If we climb up the high branch of the Inscription Association and make friends with Master Dong, the strength and status of our Situ family will surely be able to rise to a higher level..." Mr. Yin said.
"Open the main door, I will go to the door to greet the two masters in person." Situ Dugu was hot-tempered and walked directly to the door without waiting for Mr. Yin to finish.
All the children of the Situ family followed their ancestor happily.
Only Situ Ba's face was ashen, and his figure fell to the end. He realized that no one noticed him, and suddenly he disappeared into a corridor.
How could he dare to stay here any longer?
At this time, he could not care too much, and saved his life first. Situ Ba slipped out of the Situ family directly from the back door, while sending a message to Mo Yixiao, and hurried to the manor outside the city in a hurry.
"Hahaha... Vice President Bi, Master Dong, you two are honored to come. My Situ family is honored... what is it?" Situ Dugu smiled proudly and greeted the door. He forgot the last word when he was halfway through.
"Brilliant!" Mr. Yin added quickly.
"Yes, honored!"
Everyone in the Situ family laughed awkwardly, but Vice President Bi Ying and Master Dong looked unhappy.
Soon, Situ Dugu noticed this.
"Brother Situ, your Situ family is not a decent family. What do you want to do by kidnapping my little disciple? Are you going to start a war with an old man like me?" Master Dong shouted with a strong smell of gunpowder.
Judging from his calm face and words, this master of Dan Dao, who used to be kind to everyone, was indeed very angry today.
When Master Dong said this, the scene suddenly became cold, and everyone in the Situ family was shocked.
Someone kidnapped Master Dong's disciple?
This... there must be no misunderstanding.
Situ Dugu looked at Mr. Yin suspiciously, and Mr. Yin was also confused. No one expected that these two distinguished guests would come to the door to ask for punishment this time.
"Master, where did you get this from? Our Situ family respects you as a god, how could we do such a stupid thing? Is there a misunderstanding?" Mr. Yin looked embarrassed and smiled apologetically.
"Yes, yes..." Situ Dugu echoed on the side.
"Hmph!" Master Dong was furious. "Brother Situ, do you really not know about this? Then, Brother Situ must have heard about the Tie family, right?"
"Of course." Situ Dugu nodded.
The Tie family incident has been a hot topic and has already alarmed the entire Western Tang, but what does this have to do with Master Dong's apprentice?
Not to mention that Situ Dugu was full of confusion, even Mr. Yin, who was supposed to be regarded as a military advisor by Situ Dugu, was also confused.
Seeing this scene, Master Dong's expression eased a little. He understood that Situ Dugu had a hot temper and did not seem to be pretending. He said seriously: "Then I will tell you clearly. The Tie family fell into such a state because Ye Feng thought that it was the bastard Tie Hualong of the Tie family who kidnapped the young disciple Huo Jing'er..."
"Ye Feng?" Situ Dugu was stunned.
The middle-aged scholar Mr. Yin next to him explained quietly: "It was the elite of the Wufu who made a big fuss in the Tie family, and it is said that he captured Tie Boren alive and killed the master."
Situ Dugu's face changed, and he looked at Master Dong and asked: "What is the relationship between Ye Feng and the master's disciple?"
"Ye Feng dared to break into the Tiejiabao alone and kill people for his disciple. What relationship do you mean?" Master Dong asked back.
Situ Dugu still couldn't figure it out, and Mr. Yin reminded him again: "Master Dong's disciple is called Huo Jing'er, and she should be a young girl."
This time, the old ancestor of the Situ family completely understood.
This is, a rage for a beauty.
But why did Master Dong say that someone from his family had kidnapped his apprentice?
Thinking of how Ye Feng had made the Tie family so restless and suffered heavy casualties, and now people suspected that it was the Situ family who did it, Situ Dugu was shocked and his face suddenly changed.
Something was wrong.
If Ye Feng came to his family, perhaps the three major families in the powerful country would become the only one in the Long family.
The strength of the Situ family was slightly inferior to that of the Tie family, and Situ Dugu was not the opponent of Tie Futeng, the eldest elder of the Tie family. Since the Tie family was brought to such a state by Ye Feng, the result of the Situ family offending Ye Feng was imaginable.
Even if Ye Feng did not take action, offending Master Dong was no joke.
Thinking of this, Situ Dugu lowered his posture and asked: "Master, just tell me which rebellious person did this. No matter who he is, I will definitely find him out and will never tolerate it."
