Chapter 60: The Millennial Xu Family
"First, when someone wants to kill me, you have to protect me!" Xu Luo looked at the Devouring Beaver and said, "And my family, you are responsible for protecting!"
"No, the tanuki doesn't agree!" The tanuki jumped up directly and said angrily: "The tanuki is not your pet! I have no obligation to protect your family for you! It's your life or death, and the tanuki doesn't care very much in my heart!"
"Okay then, what about me...... You must protect, if my family is in danger, as long as you are present, you can't die without help, otherwise, you don't want to get a trace of the power of the stars!" Xu Luo said categorically.
"This ...... Okay, the raccoon reluctantly agreed, but you also listen to the raccoon, the raccoon is not your pet, and there is absolutely no obligation to do things for you!"
"Okay, I promise you, I ask you to do something, and I will naturally give you a satisfactory reward. Xu Luo said, and said: "Second, you are a ninth-order spirit beast, it is too conspicuous to go out with me every day, can you make yourself less conspicuous?"
"What's so difficult about this?" the raccoon man smiled coldly, and his body suddenly turned into a little yellow cat the size of a palm, with blue eyes, and it looked extremely cute: "It's always okay, right?"
"It's okay, but you can't call yourself a raccoon man anymore......" Xu Luo said.
"Why? The raccoon master is a dignified ninth-order spirit beast! It's the Sky Swallowing Beaver! What is the Sky Swallowing Beaver, do you know what? Hmph, you little human who has no knowledge, you will never hear of the powerful Sky Devouring Beaver Clan!" Although the Tanuki Master's body has become very small, his tone is still arrogant.
"But you call yourself a raccoon like this, and you speak unscrupulously, do you think everyone else is a fool? Can't you guess that you are a powerful spirit beast? In case you attract the attention of others and want to arrest you, do you really think that with your ninth-order spirit beast, you can defeat all human powerhouses?"
Xu Luo said lightly: "If that is really the case, the ruler of this world will never be a human being. ”
The raccoon man wanted to refute it, but he also felt that Xu Luo's words made some sense, so he couldn't help but snort and said, "If you don't call yourself the raccoon man, what is it called?"
"Master Cat is fine. Xu Luo glanced at the miniature raccoon man and said with a smile.
"Phew! What is a cat?Ahh......h Be...... It's not a cat!"
"Look down on cats?" Xu Luo sneered: "Cats have nine lives and can die nine times, what about you?"
"Uh...... Tanuki...... Although the raccoon is powerful, if he is dead, he is dead. How can a cat have nine lives?" Uncle Devouring Beaver was a little frightened, he had never seen a cat, but he had also heard the saying that cats had nine lives, and he couldn't help but feel a little weak.
I secretly said in my heart: Could it be that cats really have nine lives?
"Hmph, isn't that the end of it? The cat has nine lives, and he is not as arrogant as you, you are a raccoon dog all day long, and in less than two days, you will be caught and skinned, your demon core will be pulled out, and your bones and blood will be used in medicine...... Xu Luo said with a malicious face.
If it weren't for this damn guy, how could she have been so badly injured?How could Ripple almost wipe out the entire Wei family in a fit of rage?Thus putting herself in danger.
"Okay, okay, the raccoon listens to you, and in the future, he will call himself the cat master, well, the name of the raccoon is Meow Meow, and you can also call the raccoon man Uncle Meow in the future!"
"Meow meow, hahaha!" Xu Luo didn't expect that the Devouring Beaver would have such a cute name.
"Don't laugh!"
"Ha Lu Ha, okay, don't laugh, Ha Lu Haha! Meow Meow ......"
"You're looking for death!"
……
The ninth-order spirit beast is indeed extremely powerful, but Meow Meow, this Devouring Beaver, is actually just a ninth-order spirit beast in its infancy, and it needs a large amount of heaven and earth essence and a long time before it can truly advance to a mature ninth-order spirit beast.
Only then will it be incomparably powerful.
It is precisely for this reason that it attaches so much importance to the colorful light, and will deign to stay by Xu Luo, who has the power of stars in his body.
In fact, on the day Meow Meow first entered the imperial capital, he locked Xu Luo's position, but when he entered the True Martial Arts Academy and wanted to catch the damn medicine thief, he suddenly felt an extremely terrifying aura!
This aura is very inconspicuous, looming, and only a ninth-order spirit beast like Meow Meow can barely sense it. This made Uncle Meow, who was a ninth-order spirit beast, tremble, and had to endure his anger and lurk, until Xu Luo left the True Martial Academy, he didn't dare to make a move.
Many things in the world, a drink and a peck, are like heaven, if Xu Luo didn't use the shaking light explosion, it would naturally be impossible for Meow Meow to feel the power of the stars in his body.
Then, Xu Luo may have died at this time.
……
"Uncle Meow Meow needs a lot of energy...... Xu Luo, how about a discussion? Bring all kinds of spirit stones, magic cores, and all kinds of superb materials in your house...... How about taking them all out and giving them to Uncle Meow? Uncle Meow is hungry!"
Xu Luo walked on the street, a palm-sized little yellow cat in his pocket, wah-wow-wow-wow whispering in Xu Luo's ears.
At this time, it was already half a month after the tragedy in the imperial capital, and Xu Luo had recovered as usual seven days ago, but at the suggestion of Ripples, he still stayed at home for eight more days.
During this period, Xu Luo and Ripple had been waiting for the emperor's decree to deprive the two of them of their status as county lords and marquises, but they never waited.
This made Xu Luo and Ripple's hearts a little heavy.
The destroyed shops of the Wei family are all being rebuilt, and Wei Feng doesn't know what benefits he has gained, in short, after that day, he has not made any more sounds, and has become silent and low-key.
At this time, it was already the end of the year, and seeing that the New Year was approaching, Xu Luo decided to go back to the True Martial Arts Academy, and it was estimated that during this time, Qiqi must have been worrying about himself every day. This smart and sensible girl endured not coming to the Xu Mansion to see him.
After all...... Her identity is there.
The princess of the royal family, how is it on campus, others can laugh at it, but if she openly visits the Xu Mansion, it will definitely cause a lot of misunderstandings.
This misunderstanding is not a good thing for Xu Luo and the entire Xu family now.
Especially...... The emperor should already have some bad thoughts about the Xu family now. At this time, the seventh princess is caught in the middle, which is the saddest.
"Uncle Meow Meow is hungry! Hungry to death!" Meow Meow continued to bombard Xu Luo's ears, and it was in the way of sound transmission, only Xu Luo alone could hear it.
"Don't even think about it, when you're hungry, find a way to go by yourself. Xu Luo said expressionlessly, but in his heart he was thinking about a strategy to deal with the current situation.
"The royal suspicion of the Xu family is not a day or two, in fact, a long time ago, in the era of the ancestors of my Xu family, the royal family made a lot of restrictions on the Xu family, which was a high-ranking master......"
"Once the first generation ancestor of my Xu family, followed the emperor of the firmament country to conquer the world, and the two were even sworn brothers, at that time, the first generation ancestor of my Xu family was the generalissimo of Zhenguo!"
"Later, this generalissimo of Zhenguo became the general of Zhenguo, passed down from generation to generation, although he did not demote his rank, but the power in his hands was a little bit hollowed out......"
"There is only one core force left that is jointly mastered with the royal family, that is, the hidden dragon that Sister Ripple used a few days ago, and it is estimated that it is this core force that only obeys the orders of my Xu family, which is the most feared by the emperor, right?"
"It's just that the royal ancestors have training, the royal family is not destroyed, the Xu family is not falling, and the Qianlong Army is not easy to master. ”
Xu Luo thought in his heart, couldn't help sighing, and secretly said in his heart: The founder of the Firmament Country is a person who understands! Back then, the Firmament Country was able to have a huge territory, and seventy percent of the ancestors of my Xu family were defeated! Leaving this ancestral teaching, it was obvious that he was afraid that after the royal family became jealous of the Xu family in the future, he would deprive the Xu family of the last little strength.
"The Founding Monarch...... is a kind and righteous person, although he did not inherit the rank of generalissimo of Zhenguo, but he was not ashamed of his brother, but this descendant...... Hehe, kindness will always fade over time, and it will disappear after the most. ”
Xu Luo muttered to himself.
Uncle Meow in his pocket was extremely dissatisfied with Xu Luo's coping, and roared and bombarded Xu Luo's ears: "Why, when Uncle Meow can't find the baby himself?
As he spoke, he turned into a yellow lightning bolt and shot away from Xu Luo's pocket, disappearing in an instant.
Xu Luo shook his head slightly, let out a long breath, and his ears were finally clear.
His thoughts returned to the thousand-year-old entanglement between his family and the royal family.
"The country of the sky is blessed by the Big Dipper, the country's fortunes have prospered for more than a thousand years, the country is peaceful, and the generals naturally have no status, especially the powerful martial arts family like my Xu family, which has been suppressed by civil officials in various ways. Fortunately, my Xu family has been loyal and good for generations, and the emperors of previous dynasties have not done too much, it is nothing more than to take power. ”
"It wasn't until a few decades ago that the neighboring countries started to make trouble, when my grandfather ...... He was ordered by the old man to start a decades-long military career, and made outstanding achievements, making my Xu family shine again......"
"Then my father succeeded my grandfather and continued to fight on the frontier, and he also made countless achievements...... Presumably, the royal suspicion of the Xu family began at that time, right? Grandpa disappeared at the peak of his prime, perhaps, ...... It has something to do with that. ”
"Now that my brother has entered the army again, my waste has suddenly become less waste, alas......"
Xu Luo sighed and thought: The thousand-year-old Xu family already has too strong a foundation, and even if the emperor wants to deal with my Xu family, he also needs to use the means of letting the Xu family be full of favor first, and then slowly killing it. But the problem is, my Xu family ...... There has never been a disobedience!
So Your Majesty ...... I hope you can keep a tolerant heart, a narrow-minded king can't control the courtiers!
Xu Luo suddenly thought at this time: his father was calculated and led to the defeat of the army, and his grandfather left soon after, and this matter occupied the dominant ...... Is it really just a civilian-bureaucratic group headed by the Wei family?
A certain possibility suddenly came to mind, coupled with the fact that the emperor didn't have a reason to canonize the Lord of the Vermilion Bird and his own Colorful Marquis...... Xu Luo suddenly felt a chill all over his body.
muttered, "Hope...... That's not true!"
