The first elder glanced at the second and fifth elders before leaving. This time, he didn’t explain or argue with them. He seemed to have lost his vitality.
“What happened to him?” When the fifth elder saw that the second elder did not speak righteously for the first time, the uneasiness in his heart surfaced again.
“I don’t know. Perhaps I am also surprised that Dugu Yusheng knows Missy,” The second elder said.
“Logically speaking, knowing that Dugu Yusheng and Missy know each other, the first elder will definitely speak more harshly. He won’t be so calm.” The fifth elder frowned, unable to guess the first elder’s thoughts.
Upon hearing this, the second elder fell silent. Su Huiqing knowing Dugu Yusheng was indeed out of his expectations.
However, on second thought, Su Huiqing’s potion shop was no longer around, and she didn’t have any potion to help those young disciples break through their bottlenecks.
No matter what, Su Huiqing no longer had the ability to threaten him.
He and the fifth elder slowly calmed down.
…
“I apologize to you.” Apollo patted Dugu Yusheng on the shoulder.
Dugu Yusheng glanced at him coldly.
Apollo rubbed his nose. “In the past, when you said that the Dugu Family was all brawn and no brains, I even beat you up. I sincerely apologize to you. I have wronged you.”
With that, he snorted. What were the eyes of the Dugu Family elders?
If the King was a member of their family, that bunch of people would definitely support her! He never expected the Dugu Family to be despicable.
Dugu Yusheng calmly looked away. This time, he didn’t say anything.
“Gideon will not be able to leave for the time being. The fastest way to get here will be the day after tomorrow.” Apollo brought up important matters, and his expression turned grave.
“The day after tomorrow? Don’t worry, I can afford to wait.” Su Huiqing inserted the last silver needle into the skin and spoke calmly.
Apollo opened his mouth but eventually swallowed that sentence. “You are going to the training grounds soon.”
…
“Elders…” Dugu Xing didn’t dare to go to Su Huiqing’s courtyard anymore so she waited outside. When she saw the two elders coming out, she immediately went up to them with a smile on her face. However, her tightly clenched fists exposed the fact that she was panicking.
“Is that person inside really Young Master Dugu?” She asked the fifth elder in a low voice.
“That’s right. I met him once.” The fifth elder’s voice was very low. “That’s because he’s definitely not wrong. Rumor has it that he’s a little unsociable. Now that he actually entered the courtyard with Missy, he must be very familiar with her.”
“How did this happen? How did he know her?” Dugu Xing couldn’t help but take a step back as panic surged in her heart.
She felt that she could no longer grasp Su Huiqing. She was just an ordinary person; how could she know so many people? Even Principal Dien would take her in as his disciple…
Seeing Dugu Xing’s expression, the second elder immediately understood what she was thinking. He said in a deep voice, “Don’t worry, Missy has offended the King of Mercenaries.
“She has just returned from her seclusion. Dugu Yusheng definitely doesn’t know who she has offended. If he knew, he definitely wouldn’t be so close to her.”
After all, who dared to offend the King of Mercenaries now?
Just as they were speaking, someone suddenly came to report to the Bai Family Head.
“The head of the Bai Family?” The fifth elder’s face changed. “The head of the Bai Family is not here. Why is the head of the Bai Family here?”
“It must be because of Su Huiqing!” The second elder hurried out. “I told her not to enter the Dugu Family. The head of the family wants her to be his successor. That Su Huiqing really harmed us!”
He and the second elder immediately went out and especially went to look for the first elder.
The first elder sat in his own courtyard, holding a wine pot. He only waved his hand and didn’t say a word.
“Alright! If you don’t care, I will kick Su Huiqing out of the Dugu Family!”
Seeing the fifth elder leave angrily, the first elder drank a pot of wine mockingly. He did not forget how the Bai Family Head’s number was on Su Huiqing’s phone this afternoon.
“Master Bai, may I know why you are here today?” When the fifth elder went to the main hall, the head of the Bai Family was sitting in his seat, drinking tea, looking distracted.
He bowed and said respectfully to the Bai Family Head.
In the entire Dugu Family, only Dugu Heng could stand shoulder to shoulder with the Bai Family Head. Naturally, the elders didn’t dare to sit side by side with the Bai Family Head.
The Bai Family Head immediately stood up. “I am looking for Missy…”
Upon hearing that the Bai Family Head was indeed here for Missy, the fifth elder’s heart skipped a beat. “I didn’t expect Su Huiqing to be so daring as to provoke the King of Mercenaries and His Highness Ling Jun. The Dugu Family will definitely not tolerate such a person. We will chase her out today!”
He knew Su Huiqing very well. She had not trained for the past twenty years, and most of her skills came from Dugu Heng. Now, she had actually offended the King of Mercenaries.
If he didn’t chase her out, she would still be a scourge. Even if Dugu Heng returned, the fifth elder would have his reasons.
“What did you say?” The Bai Family Head looked like he was joking. “You want to kick Missy out of the Dugu Family?”
The fifth elder pondered for a moment. He knew that it was not good to chase out juniors.
However, Su Huiqing didn’t grow up in the Dugu Family. As soon as she returned, she made the entire Dugu Family a mess, and even the elders didn’t get along…
Upon seeing the fifth elder’s expression, Dugu Xing chuckled and said in a serious tone, “Master Bai, don’t worry. Our Dugu Family will not protect anyone.”
“It’s good that you don’t want Missy!” The Bai Family Head’s face lit up with joy. “Then, let Missy come to our Bai Family!”
