“Teacher Hou Jie? Do you know where she is?”
Upon hearing this, Su Bai could not help but sit up straight.
He had always wanted to help Hou Jie.
“No, I don’t know.” Hou Lan shook his head, and then said again, “But my Second Uncle has managed to find her.”
“I see. Brother Hou Lan, are you sure?”
Su Bai looked at Hou Lan and asked, “It’s not that I don’t believe you, but if I can’t be sure, I can’t come up with countermeasures.”
“I understand, I have the evidence.”
Hou Lan nodded and took out his phone. There was a video of Hou Jie in it.
In addition, he also had some items belonging to Hou Jie.
Through these, it is already 90% sure that her location had indeed been found out.
“Brother Hou Lan, don’t worry, leave this matter to me. Hou Jie is my teacher, I won’t let her get into trouble.”
Su Bai nodded and took charge of the matter directly.
“Thank you, thank you so much.”
Hou Lan hurriedly thanked him emotionally. Su Bai’s attitude of taking over without saying anything made him very grateful.
At this time, He Yu, Ouyang Du, and the others had also returned with the 12 captured men.
These 12 people have been completely restrained, and they did not have the slightest ability to resist.
“Are you a direct line of Amethyst Dragon King?” Su Bai looked at Zhao Yang and asked indifferently.
“Yes, we’re the 12 strongest killers under Amethyst Dragon King. Because Lord Dragon King is not in Blue Planet, he told us to find a way to target you.
It happened that our organization received the assassination request of Hou Lan by the Hou family, so we planned this operation, with the purpose of catching Hou Lan and drawing you out.”
Zhao Yang replied obediently, very conscious of being a prisoner.
“You arranged the killer on my parents’ side before too?”
Su Bai asked.
“Yes, but because we were unsuccessful, we went after your classmates and friends.”
Zhao Yang looked at Su Bai and nodded slowly.
“Very well.”
Su Bai lowered his voice, and a trace of killing intent appeared in his eyes. Amethyst Dragon King is completely going against him now.
This was definitely not the collective action of the Dragon Slayers, or Wei Ya would have informed him.
Just as he was deep in thought, huge dragons galloped in the sky, and all their breaths were deep and terrifying, like little scary suns. Wherever these dragons passed, the monsters in the mountains below all knelt to the ground.
Su Bai looked up and saw that there were more than 30 dragons in total, and each dragon had a Pet Tamer.
The vast majority of them were peak high-level emperor dragons, and the three headed by them were all terrifying existences at the sovereign grade!
Each of these dragons was not small, the emperor grade had a huge size of nearly a kilometer, while the sovereign grade had a length of two kilometers.
They shuttled in the sky, and the scene was as majestic and magnificent as described in an epic.
Soon, the black dragon with the most terrifying aura hovered near Planet Eye. Dean Qin Miao jumped down from above and looked at the 12 people who had been captured, with a shocked expression. “You’ve captured all the 12 Amethyst Elephants?”
She had heard about the 12 Amethyst Elephants a long time ago. They were the 12 subordinates trained by Amethyst Dragon King in the Dragon Slayers organization, and their strength was very terrifying.
Each of them count hunt down sovereign monsters alone, and united together, even ordinary sovereign monsters would not resist them.
Some other seniors also showed a hint of surprise.
“Good lad, we rushed over afraid that something might have happened, but it turns out that you’re all fine. It seems we’re not needed here!”
Vice Dean Chen San said with a smile on his face.
“Impressive!”
Other seniors also praised him generously, not expecting him to have become so strong in the blink of an eye.
The strength he had shown previously had been completely inadequate to deal with these 12 joint forces.
“It’s because I brought back the pets that went to study at the Imperial Beast Academy. They’re pretty strong now.”
Su Bai explained, and then roughly went through what happened.
“Oh, I see. I was wondering where these guys popped up from, but it turns out they were charging at you.”
Qin Miao glanced aside at the 12 people, whose actions were restrained, and only had the ability to breathe.
Su Bai’s strength once again surprised them and made their support of him even more firm. They felt like if this continued, coupled with his Ancestor Blood Dragon, he definitely had the power to earn the curator position.
And the probability of victory was extremely high.
“Dean, can you help put pressure on the Hou Family to let them hand over the traces of my teacher Hou Jie?”
Su Bai repeated Hou Jie’s circumstances to them.
Qin Miao thought for a while, and said directly, “No need, let’s go, we’ll charge there directly. There are evidences against them, and they even wanted to secretly assassinate my Chief Disciple. How could this be tolerated?”
“Yes! We can’t tolerate it! There’s no need to pressurize them or anything, we’ll charge straight to their door and surround the Hou Family’s house!!”
Vice Dean Chen San also said loudly.
“Exactly, our Imperial Dragon Gymnasium hasn’t shown our prowess for too long. How can a second-rate rubbish family dare to bully our Chief Disciple?
Come on, let’s barge into their home! Let the world see that Imperial Dragon Gymnasium has not fallen!!”
Some other elders also nodded, completely agreeing with Qin Miao’s approach.
Hou Lan: “…”
He was a little speechless. Looking at the dozens of terrifying dragons around him, he deeply felt the gap between his family and the gym.
But instead of feeling unhappy, he was a little emotional. His rotting family of his should have been cleaned up long ago.
“Then thank you seniors!!”
Seeing their position, Su Bai naturally had no reason to shrink back. He was not happy with the Hou Family either.
During his competition in Shanghai, those guys had caused him much trouble.
“Then let’s go!!”
Under Qin Miao’s order, Su Bai and the others all rode to Shanghai on the mighty dragon.
…
There was a round man-made island with a diameter of one kilometer on the sea one kilometer away from Shanghai.. This island belonged to the Hou Family, which was built during the peak of the family.
The whole island was surrounded by greenery and buildings, and nature and technology seemed to be perfectly integrated.
In the middle of the island was a huge tall building with a height of 1,500 meters. The top of the tall building was made of glass, along with all the walls on this top layer. From the inside, all the sights of the island could be seen, but the inside could not be seen from the outside.
This was an exclusive room belonging to the patriarch of the Hou Family. The entire top floor was a huge study room, which was also the patriarch’s study room.
It represented the highest power of the Hou Family.
A thin middle-aged man dressed in black, surrounded by a group of people, slowly walked into the study.
The study desk was in front of a huge French window, and a large black office chair was placed in front of the desk, where the patriarch used to sit.
This was where his elder brother Hou Changtian sat back then, and Hou Changfeng could only stand in front of his desk and report to him.
But now, it was his turn to take this seat finally, and from then on he would be the one with the ultimate authority in the whole Hou Family.
“Dad, please sit down.”
Hou Changfeng’s eldest daughter Hou Baihe pulled the office chair and said with a smile.
Hou Changfeng exhaled, walked to the front, and sat down solemnly.
He fell in love with the wonderful feeling of sitting on this position.
“Is this the position of the patriarch? It feels so good!!”
He widened his eyes and smiled triumphantly.
“Yes, please report anything to me.” Hou Changfeng smiled.
These members of the family walked over and reported their situation one by one, and Hou Changfeng enjoyed it all.
“By the way, Dad, Hou Lan has left Shanghai this morning. The killer we invited has gone over. At this time, Hou Lan should be dead. Next is Hou Jie. This woman can’t be kept alive. Dad, you can leave it to me…”
Hou Baihe said while rubbing Hou Changfeng’s shoulders.
She detested Hou Jie. Whenever Hou Jie was at home, she was crushed by her on all aspects, whether it was appearance or talent. Hence, she was bitter with envy and jealousy.
Later, when the people she liked did not reciprocate her feelings, and wooed Hou Jie instead, her jealousy turned to hate.
Now that Hou Jie was finally desolate, she must appear in front of her with the most successful and supreme attitude, and personally destroy her bit by bit.
“We can’t move Hou Jie, and must send someone to protect her instead.”
Hou Changfeng said in a deep voice, “I warn you, don’t be distracted. The young patriarch of the Wang Family has called for her protection.”
“Yes, I understand, Dad.”
Hou Baihe smiled and agreed, but her heart was already burning with anger.
Hou Jie had already fallen to this point, but why was someone still coming forward to protect her!
Moreover, it was even a legendary character like Wang Yize. In what way was she worse than Hou Jie?
Why has Wang Yize never opened his eyes to look at her once!
But the only refreshing thing in her heart was that Hou Lan was killed by her. Hou Jie’s dearest brother had died in her hands.
She very much hoped to see Hou Jie’s desperate expression!
“Patriarch, I think this assassination of Hou Lan might be a little premature. Hou Lan still has lots of connections, especially when I investigated, he even went to Imperial Dragon Gymnasium this time. If we provoke them, we can’t handle it.”
A middle-aged man looked at Hou Changfeng and said slowly.
“Third Uncle, do you think that Imperial Dragon Gymnasium will offend our Hou Family for a person who has nothing? Although we’re not a major first-class family, we’re at least a first-class family. Why would they offend us for an insignificant person?
I’m friends with Zi Wuji from Giant Dragon Gymnasium. Although I don’t have much friendship at God Dragon Gymnasium, they’re currently competing for the next curator, and all need external support. Is it possible that they will be an outsider and offend us? Why would they push us to side with Giant Dragon Gymnasium?”
Hou Baihe said with a sweet smile on her face, not taking the matter to heart.
“I heard that Hou Lan has a deep friendship with Su Bai, the Chief Disciple of God Dragon Gymnasium. There’s still something wrong with this matter, at least it shouldn’t be like this…”
Before Hou Baihe had finished speaking, the new patriarch Hou Changfeng waved his hand to interrupt him.
“Third Brother, you think too much. Friendship is insignificant, interests are the most important these years.
There’s a low probability that Hou Lan will survive until he reaches Imperial Dragon Gymnasium. With him dead, it’s impossible for Su Bai to blame us over a dead person, right?
Baihe is right. They need investments nowadays, so even if Hou Lan meets Su Bai alive, we can just voice our willingness to help him compete for the curator position at that time. Who knows, Hou Lan might disappear mysteriously the next day.”
“Yes, Third Uncle, you don’t have to worry about this at all,” Hou Baihe also said with a smile, “Su Bai is just an ordinary person with no background. He finally became the Chief Disciple, don’t you think he’ll flatter our family to obtain the curator position?
When the time comes, I might say a word and give him hope, and he’ll come to me and ask for investments.”
“OK.”
Third Uncle Hou Baihe shook his head and stopped arguing.
“OK, let’s go down for the patriarch meeting.”
Hou Changfeng took the authority seal belonging to the patriarch from the drawer and stood up.
Soon, they came to the square to the east of the central building. Now, more than a thousand core members of the Hou Family were waiting there in an orderly manner.
Hou Changfeng stepped onto the rostrum with a smile on his face: “Everyone, today, a new era has opened. I’ll lead everyone to bring our family back to its peak, and even higher…”
However, before Hou Changfeng’s words were finished, the sky suddenly became dark, followed by waves of horror descending from the sky.
When the people of the Hou Family looked up, more than 30 huge dragons were hovering over the island, and the terrifying dragon auras were released without concealment.
cFor a time, the entire sky was surging, and countless dark clouds gathered, as if a catastrophe had come.
The sea was surging, and all the monsters within dozens of kilometers in the vicinity had all escaped and disappeared. With the terrifying might of the dragons, hundreds of meters of high waves rushed in.
With a crisp bang, a domineering black dragon directly destroyed the protective shield of the Hou Family Island between its claws. The terrifying dragon enveloped the area immediately afterwards. Most people in the square squatted and knelt on the ground with their faces a mixture of panic and horror.
Oh my God, who the hell provoked Imperial Dragon Gymnasium!
This terrifying coercion made them feel like they would die at any time.
“Hou Family, you’re so brave! You openly dispatched a killer to assassinate many disciples in my gymnasium, and my Chief Disciple was almost assassinated. Your guts are made of steel!!”
Qin Miao’s indifferent and severe voice came from high above.
Hearing this, the people of the Hou Family felt a chill run down their spine, wondering who was not afraid of death and dared to provoke Imperial Dragon Gymnasium.
They could not wait to find this man and kill him, then pull his brain out and see what shit was inside.
The new patriarch Hou Changfeng swallowed his saliva, his heart suddenly stopping, but his eyelids were beating wildly.
The thirty-odd dragons in the sky were too terrifying, and they did not feel less terrifying than the faces of dozens of people in the sky!
“Dean Qin Miao, what do you mean? You openly brought people to my Hou Family territory, and ruined our protective shield without hesitation. By openly provoking a fight, do you not put our Hou Family in your eyes?”
Hou Changfeng shouted coldly, his face twisted with fury.
But he did not dare to release his pet for a fight. Although he was a heavenly king-level Pet Tamer, he could not defeat all these dragons.
“Hou Family? I need to put you in my eyes? What are you even?
If you dared to attempt to assassinate my Chief Disciple, I won’t let you go without a proper explanation today!!”
Qin Miao glanced at Hou Changfeng with eyes full of disdain.
Since the only epic Pet Tamer with an immortal monster had died in the Hou Family, no one put them in their eyes.
Not to mention the peak gymnasium like Imperial Dragon Gymnasium, any few people could destroy them.
Su Bai and Hou Lan stood in front of Qin Miao, secretly shocked.
Su Bai had never seen Qin Miao’s aggressive and heroic side.
But it was really cool to have such an elder vent his anger.
The Hou Family was shaking with fright.
Hou Changfeng gritted his teeth, but did not dare to act on impulse. He took a deep breath and looked at Su Bai with a gentle smile. “Dean Qin Miao, little friend Su Bai, I think there must be some misunderstanding. An insignificant person must have driven a wedge between us.
I’m very optimistic about Su Bai in the competition for the curator position this time, and am preparing to invest a certain amount of resources in him. Moreover, my daughter has admired Su Bai for a long time, so I’ve always wanted to meet him. How could I possibly plan to assassinate him?!”
At this time, Hou Changfeng did not have the domineering and willful tone that he had just now. He used his words carefully, for fear that he would make Su Bai angry, and even implicated his daughter.
He did not bother to make excuses, because he knew that since they had come to the door, this was no longer something that could be resolved by disputing.
The strong would not bother disputing with you.
Even with the Pet Administration Bureau ensuring that Imperial Dragon Gymnasium would not really kill them, in the face of such colossus, the entire Blue Planet would have no place for the Hou Family if they expressed their attitude.
Hearing her father’s words, Hou Baihe showed a charming smile on her face, and her eyes were instantly full of admiration. She looked at Su Bai and said, “Brother Su Bai, I have heard of your deeds for a long time, and I have always admired you very much. I don’t know if it’s possible, but I would like to have the chance to dine together. Although my Hou Family is not as good as your gym, it still has a lot of resources.”
She appeared soft-spoken, affectionate, and shy. With her beautiful features, the appearance of a maiden was very heart-warming.
Her hidden meaning was that if Su Bai was willing, she was willing to follow him, and could go to a hotel after dinner as well.
Not only could Su Bai have her, he could also have the Hou Family’s large amount of resources.
Hou Lan was now worthless, so why bother to fight for him?
In the eyes of Hou Changfeng and Hou Baihe, they had already given up such benefits, and anyone should know how to choose for themselves. The result was self-evident.
Su Bai looked up at Hou Baihe and asked indifferently, “Why should I dine with you just because you adore me? What are you?”
Hou Baihe’s gentle smile suddenly stiffened, and then her face turned livid. Anger flowed into her heart, but she did not dare to show it.
She had never been humiliated since she was a child. She could not understand why a commoner-born person had no desire for such a prestigious maiden as herself. How dare he humiliate her like that?
But she did not know that Su Bai had already learned that Hou Baihe was not a good person from Hou Lan. She always targeting Hou Jie, and the search for Hou Jie had been led by her.
So he naturally did not save face for her.
Hou Changfeng’s complexion also became ugly, and his heart was so suffocated that he could not wait to smash this group of people into corpses immediately.
Especially Su Bai, how dare a commoner-born bastard reject his daughter? He was only lucky enough to find a good pet, but did he not know how powerless he was?
In normal times, even if such a person kneels down in front of him and begs him, and he would not marry his daughter to him.
“Hahaha, little friend Su Bai has a candid personality. It seems that my little girl has no fate with you.
Although we did not order the assassination, I’m willing to make some remedies for it.”
On the surface, Hou Changfeng was smiling.
“This is a compensation bill. If there’s another time, don’t blame us for being impolite!!”
Qin Miao threw out a two-meter-long compensation bill.
Hou Changfeng took it and his hands trembled a little. After reading it, his entire body trembled. The materials on this were almost one-third of the current Hou Family’s property.
And they even demanded for an accurate piece of information about Hou Jie’s so-called location, which he vaguely felt was the main cause of this disaster.
He wanted to refuse, but dared not to. The dragons hovering in the sky was like a huge sharp blade stabbing his heart.
Moreover, even the Pet Administration Bureau did not come immediately, which showed their fear of Imperial Dragon Gymnasium.
“Dean Qin Miao, don’t worry, I’ll send the related materials to your place in a few days.”
Hou Changfeng said with a smile, but his heart was dripping blood.
