Chapter 18: Breakthrough
Red Moon City.
Washington.
"I'm going to have to get you here." The wind suddenly stopped, maintaining an icy expression.
The vermilion gate was open, and two burly men were guarding the door, and when they saw Gillian and the others, their faces were very cold.
"Who's coming?" One of the guards asked coldly and rudely.
Jin Jiao showed a gentle smile and said, "This big brother, I'm here to give Xiang Yu a gold medal." β
"Xiang Yu?" One of the guards quickly looked Jin Jiao up and down, and suddenly, as if he had been struck by lightning, his legs trembled suddenly, and his face turned pale. "It turns out that you are the person ordered by Huada!"
"She looks so similar to Xiang Yu, she is definitely the right one!" Another guard echoed.
Gillian's heart trembled: They knew that the people of the Jin family were coming?
ββ¦β¦ Go in, the people are waiting for you. The guard said without a hint of emotion.
Walking through the secluded courtyard, the four of them stepped into the main hall.
Facing them was a brown-haired man, heroic, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, eyes like stars, but there was a hint of fearful, indescribable color in his eyes. The eyebrows were raised rebelliously, and under the long eyelashes were a pair of cold, dark dark brown eyes. Beside him was a brown-haired woman, with slightly curly long hair, a warm face, smooth skin, soft ripples in her big brown eyes, and a natural grace exuded from her body, which was in stark contrast to the bullying spirit of the brown-haired man beside her.
"You must be the golden girl of the Qilin Palace." The brown-haired woman spoke, her voice flat.
The brown-haired man snorted coldly, his eyes shining with cold. Whether it is from the courage or the undoubted eyes, he is the Lord of Huafu and the city lord of Red Moon City.
"How much do you know about our Washington?" Huada asked sharply.
"Although the Qilin Palace and your mansion had some grievances in the past, I, Jin Jiao, as the palace master of the Qilin Palace, hope that we can get along in harmony in the future."
Huada people raised their heads and laughed: "Get along in harmony? Isn't it your Qilin Palace that killed my own grandfather, took dozens of lives of my Hua family, and forcibly robbed my family's wealth? β
"Even so, it was a long time ago. As the new palace master, I promise not to let this happen again. Jin Jiao tried her best to make her position clear, "We should avoid swords and blood." If we work together and grow together, it is beneficial to both of us. Don't you think so? β
The brown-haired woman beside him had serious eyes: "Are you here to negotiate peace?" β
"I am a dignified man, and the lessons and shames of the blood of my ancestors are not something that can be forgotten."
"Hua Yan, you don't forget it, but that's your business," the brown-haired woman said in a flat tone, but with a slight reproach, "Or, no one will let you forget, but as the lord of Washington, you should pay more attention to the people in the whole city of Red Moon City, and you should consider the people who are alive here now." We should give peace a chance. β
"This sister said it well." Wu Tianjun has always been a realistic person, and he can't help but agree.
"If you don't mind, please call me 'Mrs. Hua'." The brown-haired woman said steadily, her tone was light and detached. It seems that she is much more mature than Hua Yan in terms of temperament and mind.
Wu Tianxiao said respectfully: "We think so too. Today we came to your mansion, not to fight, but to find Jin Jiao's sister. β
"This golden girl is indeed quite beautiful, and it seems that such a handsome woman can be produced in Qilin Palace, and it seems that it is still a place that is overwhelmed by rouge...... If I go to your corrupt place and you learn from me, it will definitely restore the prestige of the Jin family. β
The implication is obvious. When Ah Jun heard this, his eyes suddenly condensed. Hua Yan didn't notice that his words made the man in front of him shoot a fierce murderous aura.
Ah Jun tried his best to calm down the intricate heart, but at the same time, Jin Jiao didn't seem to care: "I am willing to exchange this gold medal for my sister." β
Hua Yan laughed again: "I am dignified, but I still lack this little gold medal?" What do I want it for? He paused, and then added, "But since you are willing to send it, then I will take it." After all, I promised Uncle Xiang and them. Wait here, a few of you, and I'll call someone first. β
"Ruiyun!" Hua Yan shouted loudly.
Ruiyun came out of the back room, saw Jin Jiao and the others, and looked at the master again, trembling with fright.
"Go and call Uncle Xiang and Aunt Xing."
Ruiyun lowered his head and whispered "yes", and hurried out the door.
After a while, Ruiyun came with Uncle Xiang and Aunt Xing.
"As you can see, the people of the Jin family are here." Hua Yan said to Uncle Xiang, "You can give me the gold medal...... Golden Girl. β
Jin Jiao took one last look at the gold medal and handed it into Hua Yan's hands.
Hua Yan looked carefully at the gold medal in his hand.
"Huada, please rest assured, this texture and texture can't be imitated." Jin Jiao grasped it very well.
ββ¦β¦ Is that. Ruiyun! Go and bring the girl! β
Ruiyun nodded hurriedly and ran out like the wind.
Uncle Xiang and Aunt Xing looked anxious, although they were from Washington, but after all, they were just subordinates, facing the palace master of the Qilin Palace and the people of Hua, it was impossible to say that there was no trace of fear in their hearts.
"You've finally found us." Hua Yan looked at Jin Jiao, with a bit of sarcasm and disdain in her eyes.
Wu Tianjun coldly squeezed out a few words: "Although we are not locals, we know the way to ...... Ease. β
"Are you all from the Qilin Palace?" The brunette asked softly.
"Butty, are you interested in this kind of person?" Hua Yan raised his eyebrows.
"Huada, as Mrs. Hua, I naturally want to understand the people who come to Washington." As she spoke, Mrs. Hua looked at Wu Tianxiao's sword and Wu Tianjun's sword with her spare eyes, and then looked at Jing Qiushui, who had lilac eyes and looked a little like a half-breed.
"In Xia Wu Tianxiao, this is my younger brother ......"
"Ah, Wu Tianxiao, that's it...... The owner of the Qinglong Sword, I have an impression. β
"Huada, Xiang Yu is here." As soon as Ruiyun entered the house, he shouted loudly. She was followed by a young girl with large slender brown eyes, long black hair, and a striking resemblance to Jin Jiao.
"Uncle Xiang, Aunt Xing, you go out first." Hua Yan's voice was stern and could not be disobeyed.
After the two retreated, Xiang Yuji looked at Jin Jiao, and her young face was full of incredulity.
"You ......" in an incredulous tone, "...... Who is it? β
"Yu Ji," Mrs. Hua, "this is the palace master of the Qilin Palace, Jin Jiao. β
"Qilin Palace?" Xiang Yu looked disdainful. It turned out to be the number one enemy in Washington: the people of the Qilin Palace?
"You're Sister Jinlu." Jin Jiao was overjoyed, and the joy that could not be concealed was beyond words.
"What the hell is going on?" Xiang Jiao stared at Jin Jiao intently, why did the daughter of the enemy family look so similar to herself?
"Now, it's time for me to tell you the truth." Hua Yan looked at Mrs. Hua, and there was a trace of sadness in her eyes.
"You tell the truth? Could it be ......" Xiang Yu seemed to have guessed a rough idea, hesitated, and finally asked boldly, "Huada, have you always hidden it from me?" β
"Sister-in-law, you should tell her this kind of thing." Hua Yan looked indifferent.
Hua Xian looked at him stubbornly and said eloquently: "Yu Ji, you were raised as your own daughter by the kind couple of our subordinates in Washington, Kagawa River and Yu Xing, and you naturally have the surname Xiang." It's the order of the big boss Hua Yan to let the two of them adopt you. β
"Adoption?" Xiang Yu raised her head, and the sadness in her eyes couldn't be hidden. "I ...... Who am I? β
"Your real name is Jin Lu, and you are my sister who died young. I didn't expect you to be alive. β
The Kagawa River is crisscrossed by old tears.
"It's just that it's not the nobles of the Qilin Palace, it's the ...... of our Jin family's enemies" Jin Jiao suddenly stopped, she found that Jin Lu didn't know anything about her true background at all.
Hearing this, Xiang Yu couldn't help but burst into tears, and her heart was uneasy: "For so many years, you ...... Have you been lying to me? All my life, I have been living under a lie? β
Mrs. Hua held her breath and replied cautiously: "Yu Ji, we originally planned to let you grow up safely like an ordinary person, away from hatred. β
When Xiang Yu heard Mrs. Hua's words, tears finally flowed down, and she only said, "Yes, yes...... It turns out that your intentions are good, ......"
"Xiangyu, no, it's time to call you 'Jinlu'." Jin Jiao said in her gentlest tone.
"Are you really my long-lost sister?" Xiang Yuji's face was full of disbelief. The girl in front of her looks too similar to herself; However, she is a member of the enemy Jin family.
Then what is she Xiangyu herself?
Raised by the Hua family for more than ten years, she is actually the daughter of a vendetta. How much does God hate himself for playing such cruel jokes with her?
"Sister Jinlu." Jin Jiao sincerely called again, she didn't seem to have such troubles as Xiang Jiao.
ββ¦β¦ Are you, Jin Jiao? Xiang Yu raised her head, her face was full of tears, but her eyes were getting cold, "Qilin Palace Master, please don't-as a stranger, casually intrude into my life." Even if the Hua family doesn't want me anymore, I still owe them more than ten years of nurturing grace, which is not something that is just said. β
"Yu Ji," Hua Yan was secretly proud, but in front of Jin Jiao and his party, he deliberately put on a reproachful face and said in a stern tone, "Don't be willful." β
"Wayward?" Xiang Yu Ji turned to look directly at Hua Da, "I have never dared to be willful to adults and Mrs. since I was a child. But let me just accept a stranger from the Kim family casually, I ...... Can't do it. β
"That's fine. Anyone will react differently. Mrs. Hua's tone was calm, "Hua Yan, give her some time to get used to it." β
"What are you talking about?" Hua Yan's face turned gloomy, "Adapt? When she becomes a member of the Jin family, will she become our enemy? "If that's the case, what's the use of keeping her? The latter sentence was not spoken, but not to mention Hua Xinyu, who had been with Hua Yan for many years, even a few people on the scene heard this meaning.
"Please don't say that, no matter what, it's not Miss Xiang's fault." A clear male voice came from outside the door, "Yu Ji, ah, no, it's time to call Jin Lu now." β
Mrs. Hua's whole body stiffened, and killing intent flashed in Lord Hua's eyes.
I saw a thin man walk into the houseβit was the wind. Handsome demeanor, elegant demeanor, deep waist and sideburns, calmly, thin but arrogant atmosphere, exuding a kind of shining brilliance like bright jade, people can't bear to look at it.
The blood stains on his clothes indicate that he fought all the way in.
But he was personable, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a grim smile. And the blemishes formed by these filthy blood stains were not enough to destroy his transcendent temperament.
Huada had already shown his knife, and his voice was nervous: "You...... You are ......"
