Chapter Seventy-Six: Final Decision
How to deal with it?
This matter is something I have always been reluctant to face, because I am unwilling to let go of the news, and Lan Xuan and I also understand in our hearts that once the news is released, it also means that the road will be much more difficult in the future.
But what if you don't release it? Is it just me now? The people of the affiliated families, except for the Ren family, whom I have never seen myself, are ordinary people.
There is a gap between ordinary people and cultivators.
In fact, this gap is not necessarily a gap in ability, in a sense, it is the world you see is different, and the way you deal with things is also different.
Therefore, for the affairs of the cultivator world, it is of little significance for ordinary people to participate.
In other words, although there are so many affiliated families, it doesn't make much sense to rely on them for the things of the core layer.
Do you rely on the Ren family? If the Ren family's ability was really to the point where they could be relied on, Lan Xuan would not have made such a decision.
Seeing that I was silent, Lan Xuan didn't urge me.
She seemed to be able to read my thoughts, but she just said, "Zhengling, you don't have many cards in your hand right now." You read the information I gave you, if you want to ask about the Ren family, you feel that you can rely on them at a critical time. I think it's best not to, because there are some things I haven't had time to tell you, and the Ren family will be a big hole card for us. β
"Really?" I looked up, and at the end of the hallway, there was a huge window, and I seemed to think of something in the cold moonlight outside, but I needed a quiet environment to gather my thoughts.
So, I didn't even ask about Ren's family for the time being.
Just looked at Lan Xuan and said to her, "You give me one night, it's the last night." I'll sue you, what do I want to do? β
"Well, anyway, you're the head of the house. I will only give my opinion, and your decision is final. Lan Xuan said to me calmly, and then asked me in a little surprise: "The matter of the Ren family, Zhengling, don't you want to ask?" β
"Of course, but not now. Now I need a moment to clear my mind. "I don't have anything to hide from Lan Xuan.
"Okay." Lan Xuan replied very simply.
And I walked downstairs with Lan Xuan in a messy and somewhat anxious mood, but after a few hesitations, Lan Xuan still asked me: "Zhengling, Xin Yi her?" β
At this moment, the elevator door just opened, and I stepped in.
I didn't look at Lan Xuan, but said in a low voice, "Tina, I don't know what you think. But I also know that at this special moment, it is too selfish to use the power of the family to solve the matter of Xinyi. You just think it's my private business. β
"Zhengling, after all, this is also your family, I miss you" Lan Xuan comforted softly, and the meaning in her words was actually obvious.
In the face of Lan Xuan's words, I just said, "Tina, do you know what I'm thinking? Give me a moment. After all, I'm not Nie Yan, I can't do it for my own sake and use the power of my family. β
I said this, Lan Xuan was silent, although my words were a little 'outside', but if I really didn't 'see outside', the family might not have the strength to do things at this cusp.

The headquarters of the water boy family is the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, which is famous in history.
But Emperor Tong is not often at the headquarters, his external identity as a graphic model seems to be very successful, at least according to the information, too good appearance, and first-class professionalism, so that he is appreciated by many people.
There are even movies and people in the TV circle who find Emperor Tong, hoping that he can really enter the entertainment industry.
Of course, Emperor Tong rejected this qiΔ invitation, and everyone's evaluation of him in the circle was mysterious, and if he was not working, he would never waste a minute or a second of his time.
In addition, he is not bound by money, and he will be picky about his work, and he will only take what he wants.
The reason behind this is not clear to outsiders, but I am very clear, how could the head of the Tong Emperor's dignified Shui Tong family enter this circle too deeply? Maybe it's a little bit of a hobby that he can't give up, after all, his ideal is to be an actor, but relatively speaking, he can only do this, which can be regarded as an alternative way to satisfy himself, right?
"Ye Shao, what are you thinking?" The car drove smoothly on the highway, and I was in a daze for a long time, which attracted the attention of Su Ling beside me.
Yes, Su Ling has recovered but she has been in a coma for too long, and her body is a little weak, so to supplement it a little, with her physique that has been practicing martial arts all year round, she will be fine soon, at least it will not affect her normal activities.
Lan Xuan is very busy, and after finding the 'artist', she is doing the final work of collecting the net.
And Su Ling was very persistent, so Lan Xuan also followed Su Ling's wishes on this trip and asked Su Ling to accompany me.
Su Ling's scream brought me back to my senses, I turned my head to look at Su Ling, nearly half a month of coma had made her lose a lot of weight, but because of good nutritional supplements, her face was no longer as bloodless and pale as when she was in a coma.
After experiencing life and death together, my attitude towards Su Ling is naturally much kinder.
In the face of her inquiry, I smiled and said, "It's nothing, I just flipped through the information of Emperor Tong, and I thought about him for a while." β
"Are you sure about this trip?" Su Ling was a little worried, strictly speaking, she had not really come into contact with Emperor Tong, so she could only judge based on the information.
In the information, the head of the Shui Tong family, Tong Di, is a person with a somewhat elusive, sometimes strange, and sometimes extreme personality.
Su Ling's worries were not unreasonable.
I still kept smiling, leaned back in my chair a little lazily, and said, "Don't worry, if Emperor Tong really didn't have the sincerity to negotiate with us, he wouldn't have chosen to come to this city to talk to us at all, but directly let us go to N City." β
Yes, the headquarters of the water boy family is in N City, the famous ancient capital of the Six Dynasties.
After Emperor Tong received the intention of the Huo Nie family, he was unexpectedly anxious, and he chose to fly directly from the city where he was working at the time to City C, for the sake of this negotiation.
I didn't even want to wait for a day, I chose the plane in the early morning and flew over directly.
At this time, it was a little foggy morning, and I had to shorten the time for morning exercise and set off directly with Su Ling.
Emperor Tong is waiting for me at the branch of the Shui Tong family in City C, and this branch is on the outskirts of City C, which should be regarded as his last bit of 'reserve', otherwise I think he will rush directly to the headquarters of the Huo Nie family.
Hearing my answer, Su Ling was also a little relieved, and with an 'oh' sound, he sat quietly next to me and continued to flip through the information in his hand.
The message is released, but only to one person, and the way of cooperation is chosen.
This is what I gave Lan Xuan about this news, and the final answer is among them, and I also Lan Xuan picked out my thoughts, saying that it was completely selfless, which was false.
One qiΔ just because, the night before yesterday, I thought of a clue about that mysterious place underground.
That clue was inadvertently revealed to me by Emperor Tong was in the former forest, he was so sad and helpless to talk about an experience, that experience seemed to be his nightmare, the deepest shadow in his heart, and that experience from his mouth, is an underground space happened.
He sued me that it was a city!
Since this clue was inadvertently said from Emperor Tong's mouth, if you want more clues, you can only take it out of Emperor Tong's mouth.
For the place that can only be entered once a year, I don't think I can wait a year, I think, the best result is that Emperor Tong can know a little more, even the so-called dungeon, the method of entering without time restrictions
I didn't hide Lan Xuan's thoughts.
In the face of my final decision, Lan Xuan just commented like this: "Zhengling, I'm sorry that the family can't do anything for Xin Yi's affairs now." As the head of a family, I don't think I'm very qualified. After all, no matter what you think, a family revolves around the head of the family. It's just that compared to it, the fate of you and your family is more important, and the focus is on the mountains and seas and the hundred demons."
"In short, just follow your decision, I think it's good that if Emperor Tong joins, at least he can be sure of facing that artist. It's a way to have it both ways. β
This is Lan Xuan's answer to me, I know what she didn't say is that Emperor Tong is a very capable person, and he has a stronger desire for the Hundred Demon Records of Mountains and Seas, and only choosing Emperor Tong has less restrictions from other families, and we don't even have a chance to take advantage of the chaos.
However, if the news is released to a few companies, this news will not be so valuable in the eyes of Emperor Tong, and it may not be able to exchange the news I want.
After all, it was the last time he tore his wounds, and if it weren't for his abnormal feelings, I wouldn't have even gotten this clue.
Thinking about it, I couldn't help but smile bitterly, these chaotic forces are entangled.
In addition, what worries me even more is that Xin Yi actually went to such a place and hid in the underground city, what kind of cruel place would it be? And from the mouth of Emperor Tong, it seems that none of the people living there are normal people.
Thinking like this, I wish the speed of the car could be faster, so that I could see Emperor Tong immediately and get clues.
I don't think I'll be able to wait for a year, absolutely not.
Over there, Su Ling had already raised his head, and just whispered to me, "Ye Shao, the place has arrived." β
