Chapter 210: Three Elders
"I won't let you go, but I didn't say I won't go!" Leng Ruoxue smiled at Mimi.
Listening to Leng Ruoxue's words, the faces of all the elders suddenly became ugly, and even more elders couldn't help but feel sorry in their hearts, don't let us go, but you want to go by yourself, what do you think your strength is above us? However, although they were slightly dissatisfied in their hearts, no one would suspect that Leng Ruoxue wanted to swallow the secret of the secret realm alone, so they didn't let them go. Because they know very well that Leng Ruoxue is not that kind of person, even if they don't get along for a long time, but Leng Ruoxue alone can refine the Phantom Heaven... Magical things, it's not a simple character, and besides, they're richer than any of the elders they are here, woo... They still owe Leng Ruoxue a huge debt!
"Little girl! It's not that I look down on you, your strength has gone to the secret realm, that discord, that discord..."The second elder said a little embarrassed, in fact, he wanted to say, isn't that the same as sending death! But he stuttered for a long time, and he couldn't say the words "go to death".
"Second Elder! My strength may not be as good as yours, but I have the means to save my life and ensure that I can escape in the secret realm, do you dare to say that? Leng Ruoxue asked with a faint smile.
"Ugh!" The second elder wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, they really didn't dare to say this, but he was still a little uneasy, Leng Ruoxue's status in the eyes of the head of the family he was very clear, in case Leng Ruoxue had an accident because he went to the secret realm, if the head of the family knew it when he came back, he would not have to eat them alive? In addition, they have so many god emperors and god venerables, but let a little girl who only has the strength of a god go on an adventure, if this spreads, where will their faces go?
"Second Elder, there is no one more suitable to go to that secret realm than me." Leng Ruoxue glanced at the expressions on the faces of the elders, and knew what they were thinking in their hearts, but this is also human nature, who let their strength be low! They don't believe in themselves and take it for granted.
"Little girl, the danger of that secret realm is unknown, if you encounter something inside, how can we explain it to the head of the house then?" The second elder was still very uneasy.
"I don't need you to explain, my godfather knows me better than you." Leng Ruoxue said very confidently.
"So, what do we need to do?" The second elder saw that Leng Ruoxue had made up her mind, and in the days he spent with her, he also knew very well that Leng Ruoxue was a person who said the same, since she had already decided on something, she would not change it easily, since this was the case, then he and the others would help her do something! At least then they will feel better.
"There's something I need your help with." Leng Ruoxue said with satisfaction, the second elder, this old man is so good, he should reward him.
"If you need help, little girl, just ask, we will do our best." The second elder hurriedly said.
"The words of the Second Elder represent all the elders present?" Leng Ruoxue wanted to be sure.
"Hmm!" The second elder looked around at the elders present with a sharp gaze, and then bowed his head.
"Excellent! Actually, what I want you to do is very simple, that is, to oppose the Third Elder sending someone to explore the secret realm again, no matter what method you use, you must stop him! Don't let him mess with me! Leng Ruoxue said very seriously, and her serious and cautious tone made all the elders feel a pang in their hearts, this time they all knew that Leng Ruoxue was not joking, but really didn't want the Ning family to send someone.
"Since the little girl has this, then I will definitely try my best to stop him, don't worry!" The second elder reassured.
"Then please." Leng Ruoxue nodded.
"Hmmm! Little girl, when are we going back to the God Realm? The second elder asked again.
"Tomorrow!" Leng Ruoxue thought for a while.
"Good! Then I'll take them back to my room to discuss what to do, and we'll meet at the door early tomorrow morning. The second elder said, and after speaking, he left the living room with the other elders.
The next morning, as soon as the sun slowly rose, Leng Ruoxue and the others were already ready to set off on the road.
They sat on the flying beast and quickly arrived at the teleportation array to the divine realm, and after paying the teleportation fee, they were already standing on the land of the divine realm in a short time.
Leng Qingtian and the others came to the Divine Realm for the first time, so they were quite curious about the Divine Realm, but everywhere they looked, there was a white expanse, and suddenly, their interest was discounted.
“haha! The morning fog of this divine realm has not yet lifted, so you can't see much scenery yet. Seeing Leng Qingtian and the others' tangled and depressed expressions, the second elder knew what they were thinking, so he couldn't help but smile.
"Morning mist?" Leng Qingtian and the others had question marks on their faces.
"Yes! The mornings in the divine realm are like this, and it will be fine in a while. The Second Elder explained with a smile.
"Oh!" Leng Qingtian and the others nodded understandingly, but what they didn't expect was that the so-called moment in the mouth of the second elder actually made them wait until near noon, and because of the leadership of the Divine Venerable, they had already arrived at the Ning Family Divine Domain at that time.
Although they didn't see the beautiful scenery, because the matter was urgent, everyone continued to hurry non-stop, and the second elder led everyone to teleport all the way, and a few hours later, they arrived at the territory of the Ning Family's Divine Domain.
"Wow! The speed of the Divine Venerable is just different! If you only need to fly, I'm afraid you won't be able to get there in three or five days. Standing outside the city gate of the Ning Family's Divine Domain, Feng Da's eyes lit up, and he looked at the Second Elder Dao with envy.
However, at this time, the second elder was already so tired that he couldn't breathe, and he didn't have the heart to deal with Feng Da at all, if he wasn't afraid that he wouldn't be able to stop the third elder and the others from going to the secret realm, he wouldn't have sacrificed like this, you know, teleportation like this kind of long-distance journey is very consuming of divine power and physical strength.
White-eyed Feng Da, and then looked at the second elder who was sitting cross-legged on the ground panting and breathing, Leng Ruoxue took out a bottle of pills that replenished divine power and handed it to the second elder, but the cautious second elder didn't dare to reach out to take it.
"That's... I don't have any money! The second elder swallowed his saliva greedily and said with some embarrassment.
"Yours." Leng Ruoxue listened to the words of the second elder, wiped the cold sweat on her forehead, and said a little speechlessly.
"Sent me? Hey! How embarrassing is that! The second elder immediately smiled, snatched the bottle of elixir in Leng Ruoxue's hand, and directly put it into his storage ring.
"I said old man! You're going to eat one! You don't want us to carry you on your back, do you? Feng Da couldn't help but say when he saw the second elder's miser-like appearance.
"You don't have to carry it! It's good to rest for a while, and you don't need to take pills. The second elder hurriedly said, now that there is no enemy, how can you just take the pill! What's more, the pills that Leng Ruoxue took out in her hand are all good things! Even in the same level of elixir, the quality is significantly higher, so of course he is reluctant to eat it, and when he first held the bottle of elixir in his hand, he felt the surging aura, so he concluded that the bottle of elixir that Leng Ruoxue gave him was of better quality than the pills sold to them, and it was strange that he would be willing to eat it.
"Second Elder! How did I find out today that you are a miser! Feng Da said what was in his heart, and suddenly, the second elder's face was dyed a touch of crimson.
"Hey, hey! I'm thrifty! You'll have to learn from me, too! The second elder said cheekily.
"Hmmm! What the second elder said makes sense, since we advocate a covenant, then we will not take the pill as a meal in the future. Feng Da nodded in agreement.
"What? Take the pill as a meal? You bunch of losers! As soon as the second elder heard this, he was so angry that he immediately jumped up from the ground and chased Feng Da and wanted to beat him, but Feng Da's skills were as nimble as a loach, and the second elder couldn't catch him at all.
"Miss! You see how the second elder is alive and well now, I think he should have rested enough, and we can continue on the road. Feng Da ran behind Leng Ruoxue and said loudly in a voice that everyone could hear.
"Ugh!" Feng Da's words made the second elder involuntarily stop, did he fall for this kid? However, he is indeed tired, this is not pretending, thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Leng Ruoxue pitifully, that little pitiful expression seemed to say, I am really tired! It's not pretended!
"Second Elder! If you've had enough rest, let's get back on our way! Leng Ruoxue held back a smile and ignored the second elder's aggrieved eyes, a serious way.
"Oh! Let's hit the road! "The second elder is embarrassed to say, let yourself rest for a while, woo... It's all because he looked too lively just now, and if he wants to say that he is tired, it is estimated that no one will believe it.
"Let's go!" Leng Ruoxue was not polite, who made her want to rush to Ning's house quickly! Therefore, I have to grieve the second elder!
"Hmm!" The Second Elder nodded depressedly, and then led everyone directly into the Ning Family Divine Domain.
After a few more teleportations in the Ning family's divine domain, Leng Ruoxue and the others rushed to the main city of the Ning family in the evening, but they did not directly enter the main house, but went to find Ning Hai.
Ning Hai was pleasantly surprised when he saw Leng Ruoxue and the others, but when he saw the elders of the Ning family following Leng Ruoxue, he immediately became restrained again, after all, these elders of the Ning family were second only to the head of the family in the Ning family in terms of seniority, and they could be regarded as ancestors.
"Boy! You're discriminating against each other! Seeing this little girl so enthusiastic, as soon as she saw us, she immediately changed her face, how do you welcome us? Seeing Ning Hai's reaction, the second elder unceremoniously provoked reason.
"How dare I not welcome the elders! I was just too surprised. Ning Hai wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and hurriedly explained, but he couldn't help but feel his stomach rise in his heart, what happened to these two elders? Have you been repackaged? You know, the second elder in his heart is not a person who can say such things!
"Surprise fart! Don't think I don't know what's going on in your mind? You're just annoying us and trying to keep us out, aren't you? The second elder said foul language, and he didn't give up, now he looked like a little doll who couldn't eat candy, not only Ning Hai was speechless, but even the elders behind him were shocked to sweat.
"Ugh! Second Elder! You are mistaken! How could I have such an idea, I was really surprised, I didn't expect the elders to come to my house. Ning Hai smiled bitterly and continued to explain, and at the same time, he also cast a distressed gaze at Leng Ruoxue.
"Uh, what, uh! If you're uh, I'll throw you into the river to feed the fish! The second elder suddenly said angrily, but when he said this, he felt very happy in his heart, hehe!
And as soon as he finished saying this, the cold sweat on the elders behind him was even more dripping, and now they all saw that the second elder was possessed by that fish, otherwise, he would not have said such a thing, however, Ning Hai didn't know these origins, so the words of the second elder made him not come back to his senses for a long time.
When he came back to his senses, he was aggrieved in his heart, woo... He didn't do anything! Why do you have to feed him to fish?
Leng Ruoxue listened to their conversation, and she had already laughed in her heart, haha! It seems that the second elder has been stimulated a lot in the nightmare space! Now she actually discovered this evil fire on Brother Ning's body, but seeing the appearance of the second elder, she felt quite interesting, such a second elder looked much kinder.
"Brother Ning! How is the Ning family now? Leng Ruoxue changed the topic and asked, which can be regarded as relieving the depressed Ning Hai.
"The Ning family? Nothing, huh? It's business as usual! Although Ning Hai didn't understand that Leng Ruoxue would ask such a question, he still replied truthfully.
"Oh!" Leng Ruoxue nodded, and said secretly in her heart, it is estimated that the affairs of the godfather and others, except for the high-level of the Ning family, the other clansmen are not clear, but it is okay to do this, so as not to make them panic, in fact, she will have this question, and she also wants to know whether this matter has spread to the outside, now it seems that the Ning family's secrecy has done a good job, otherwise, Ning Yan would not need to sneak out of the Ning family to find her.
"Ruoxue! Is something wrong? After thinking about it, Ning Hai still asked with some unease.
"Nothing! It's just that I haven't been to Ning's house for a long time, so I want to see if you have any gossip here, so I can be prepared. Leng Ruoxue said with a light smile.
"Oh!" Ning Hai nodded, although he was a little skeptical of Leng Ruoxue's words, but Leng Ruoxue's words made him unable to find any loopholes, so he could only believe it.
"Brother Ning! We want to stay at your house for one night and go to the main house tomorrow morning, you won't be unwelcome, right? Leng Ruoxue asked with a smile.
"Huh! I can't ask for it, how can I not welcome it. Ning Hai hurriedly said, and looked at Leng Ruoxue with some resentment, this girl actually got up with him.
"That's good!" Leng Ruoxue pretended to be reassured.
Immediately afterwards, Ning Hai arranged a room for everyone, but he was specially called by the second elder, and until the next morning, when they left, they didn't see Ning Hai appear.
"Second Elder, what did you do to Ning Hai?" Walking on the road to the main city of the Ning family, Leng Ruoxue asked with some curiosity.
"Dead girl, what do you mean by what happened to Ning Hai? Can I still eat him? I just asked him to cultivate well, and gave him a task not to leave the room until he was promoted to the god king. The second elder said disapprovingly.
"You let Brother Ning cultivate in the room?" Leng Ruoxue's beautiful eyes widened, and she said a little incredible.
"What's wrong in the room? The aura in our Ning family's main city is not comparable to the outside, even if it is just cultivating in the room, it is a matter of half the effort, after saying that, his promotion to the god king is just around the corner, and when he becomes a god king, I will naturally find a way to arrange for him to enter the forbidden land for retreat, but not yet! The second chief said honestly.
"Arrange for him to enter the forbidden ground? Second Elder, you are no longer an elder of the Ning family, do you still have this right? Leng Ruoxue smiled wickedly and asked curiously.
"Dead girl! You're deliberately angry with me, aren't you? When the second elder heard Leng Ruoxue's words, he glared angrily and gritted his teeth again.
"What do you say?" Leng Ruoxue pretended to be mysterious, that's right, she just deliberately wanted to be angry with him!
"Do you still need me to say it? You're clearly angry with me! The second elder roared angrily, in fact, he thought that he was not a short-tempered person, but every time he faced Leng Ruoxue, he would be so angry that he would jump to his feet, whoever made Leng Ruoxue have the ability to be angry and not pay for his life!
"However, even if I am not an elder of the Ning family, I am still one of the only few gods in the Ning family, and no one dares to underestimate me!" The second elder added angrily.
"I can see that." Leng Ruoxue agreed, if this old man was not a god, it would be impossible for him to be deposed as an elder, and those elders still regarded him as the second elder, except for some shallow subordinates of the Ning family, of course.
"Then you don't have any doubts about my words, do you?" The second elder said with a slight smugness.
"Originally, I didn't doubt your words!" Leng Ruoxue blinked her beautiful eyes and said innocently.
"You..." The second elder was so angry with Leng Ruoxue that he couldn't speak, and he could only open a pair of big bronze eyes and glare at her viciously.
"Second Elder, do you want to resume your position?" At this time, Leng Ruoxue released another bait and whispered.
"Absolutely! However, the head of the house is not here, and it is not certain whether the head of the house will restore me to my position! The second elder didn't have much confidence, in the days when he was just dismissed, he had seen the so-called warmth and coldness of people, but after so long, he was much calmer.
"You forget, godfather said that what I said is equivalent to what he said." Leng Ruoxue reminded.
"You mean... You're going to reinstate me in my position? After hearing Leng Ruoxue's words, the second elder was excited, and grabbed Leng Ruoxue's wrist tightly with some gaffes, but when he felt a cold gaze shooting towards him, he let go of his hand in a daze.
"I didn't mean to, I was just a little excited." The second elder explained with some embarrassment.
"Huh! I have that idea, that is, I am afraid that some elders will oppose it, of course, not against you, but because I am afraid that my words will not have such a great effect in the hearts of some elders. Leng Ruoxue said calmly, she can be regarded as giving the second elder a preventive shot in advance, after all, in the current situation of the Ning family, she needs someone with weight to stand on her side, although she doesn't have to obey her words, but at least she can't go against herself and drag herself back.
"That's a big problem." The second elder frowned and said, the Ning family has a long inheritance, and the elders will naturally not be less, and they are involved in many interests, and all the elders are not all of one mind, therefore, Leng Ruoxue, an outsider, can imagine how much weight it can occupy in the hearts of those elders, if the head of the family is there, some elders may not dare to object to Leng Ruoxue's words too obviously, but unfortunately, now the whereabouts of the head of the family are unknown, however, this matter is related to his status in the Ning family, so he will never allow someone to sabotage it secretly!
"Second Elder! I'll say what I need to say, but as for how to communicate with the stubborn elders, that's your business. Moreover, I am not afraid to tell you clearly that after you are reinstated, you must be consistent with me in this matter, and other than that, it is up to you. Leng Ruoxue thought about it, and decided to say the ugly words in front, which would be good for both parties.
"I understand! I'll listen to you about it. The second elder assured that although he didn't dare to say that he was absolutely convinced of Leng Ruoxue now, at least he wouldn't deliberately go against her, in other words, Leng Ruoxue had slowly subdued him, but he hadn't realized this at this time.
"Then you can settle them first!" Leng Ruoxue gestured to the elders not far away from them with her eyes.
"They don't have to settle down!" The second elder wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and said secretly, those old guys have already been settled by you, where can I still be used! He believed that there were really no of these elders who were following Leng Ruoxue now who dared to directly oppose her words!
"Since you're so confident, let's go back to the main mansion quickly! Wait and see what happens. Leng Ruoxue said softly.
"Hmm!" The second elder nodded, and then, everyone quickened their pace and walked in the direction of the Ning family's main mansion.
And as soon as they reached the door of the main mansion, the three elders came out with some members of the Ning family to greet them.
"Second brother! Long time no see. The three elders, dressed in gray, said coldly.
"Third brother! I didn't expect you to be out of the customs. The second elder deliberately pretended to be surprised.
"yes!" The Third Elder nodded, then turned his gaze to Ning Yan's body, glanced at him coldly, and then turned his gaze to Leng Ruoxue.
Is this little girl the goddaughter of the head of the family? Sure enough, she is a rare beauty, but this strength is too low, he can't figure it out, how could the head of the family recognize a goddaughter with such poor strength and give her such a high status, this fact makes him jealous, you know, he is the son of the head of the family! However, in the heart of the head of the family, he is definitely not as good as this girl who has no blood relationship with the head of the family. Thinking of this, his gaze at Leng Ruoxue became more and more cold, even with a hint of unkindness.
While the three elders were looking at Leng Ruoxue unscrupulously, Leng Ruoxue was also looking at him unceremoniously.
This old man's strength is also a god, but in terms of momentum, it is obviously weaker than the original second elder, and now, the strength of the second elder is even more incomparable, but his shrewd eyes are very much like a godfather, but when the godfather looks at her, his gaze is gentle, and this third elder's eyes are quite unfriendly, have you offended him? Leng Ruoxue was puzzled in her heart.
"Little girl! Ning Shan'er is his descendant, and he loves that grandchild very much, so be careful when you are yourself. The second elder suddenly sent a message to Leng Ruoxue.
"I see." Leng Ruoxue replied, and then turned her gaze to the third elder, did this old man just listen to Ning Shan'er's one-sided words and pull himself into the blacklist? If this is the case, she can only say that the third elder is an elder who likes to be willful, you must know that protecting the short is also a matter of points, blindly protecting the short will only spoil the arrogant and domineering offspring, and over time, this family will not be far from destruction.
"You're just cold as snow?" After the three elders looked at it, they were as cold as snow.
"Yes!" Leng Ruoxue nodded, and then disappeared.
"I heard that your ability is not small, and you have coaxed the head of the family to obey you." The three elders were a little jealous.
"Who did the Third Elder listen to when he said this? How did I not know that my godfather was obedient to me? Leng Ruoxue's beautiful face was full of surprise, her beautiful eyes widened, and she asked in disbelief.
"Isn't this something that everyone in the Ning family knows?" The third elder pursed his lips lightly, and said in a somewhat unkind tone.
"Second Elder! Have you heard that? Leng Ruoxue listened to the words of the third elder, turned her head and asked the second elder and the others.
"I haven't heard of it." The second elder said very seriously.
"We haven't heard of it either." The other elders hurriedly agreed, and glanced at the three elders with a slight resentment, thinking in their hearts, the three elders are not harming people! This dead girl is very vindictive, if they don't stand on her side, maybe how to fix them afterwards! Woo... They're afraid!
"Have you all been bought by her? What good has she done to you that you should speak for her? Seeing that the second elder and the others were all helping Leng Ruoxue speak, the third elder couldn't help but roar with some annoyance.
"Three Elders! We're telling the truth! When we left the Ning family, we really hadn't heard this kind of statement. The Seventh Elder said with a look of grievance, although it is true that the head of the family is biased towards Leng Ruoxue, but it has not yet reached the point of obeying his words, right? Besides, with his understanding of Leng Ruoxue, he also knew that the girl was not a person of proportion, and it was impossible for her to make some unreasonable demands on the head of the family, and more importantly, the head of the family was not a fool, how could she be at the mercy of others?
"Just because you haven't heard it doesn't mean you haven't!" The third elder was angry, gritted his teeth, and then he said, "You came back just in time, and the Ning family needs you at the right time." ”
With that, he turned and walked towards the main house.
Seeing this, the second elder and the others sighed lightly and walked into the main mansion with them.
After a few adjustments, the elders gathered in the council chamber.
However, when the three elders walked into the council hall and saw Leng Ruoxue, there was a trace of dissatisfaction on their faces.
"The elders of our Ning family have important matters to discuss, what is she doing with her?" The third elder pointed at Leng Ruoxue and said unceremoniously.
