After the two of them came to an agreement, Leng ruoxue gathered everyone in the living room the next day to discuss the matter.
In the living room, the ning family’s elders looked at Leng ruoxue in confusion. They did not know why she had called them over. However, if Leng ruoxue didn’t speak, they wouldn’t take the initiative to ask either. Hence, the atmosphere turned heavy.
After a long while.
Only then did Leng ruoxue slowly open her mouth. Actually, she had not said anything all this while because she did not know how to tell them about this.
“Something has happened to the ning family.” Leng ruoxue said softly. After she finished speaking, her beautiful eyes were fixed on the elders present, observing their reactions.
“What?”
“Can you repeat that?”
The elders ‘expressions changed drastically, thinking that they had heard wrong.
“The ning family is in trouble! The whereabouts of G.o.dfather and the others are unknown, and the ning family has lost two elders. ” Leng ruoxue repeated. This time, she was even more clear.
“This is impossible! The old ancestor rarely had any opponents in the immortal realm, so it was absolutely impossible for him to go missing! Don’t tease us! How can you joke about this?” The second elder roared in anger. He was so agitated that his face was flushed red. However, he would not believe Leng ruoxue’s words!
“I’m not joking. It’s true. Ning Yan said it himself, unless you doubt his words. ” Leng ruoxue pulled a long face and said unhappily. It wasn’t April Fool’s Day today, so why did she have the mood to make fun of these old men?
“Miss Leng is not joking.” At this moment, Ning Yan walked in and heard their conversation. He quickly said,”
“Ning Yan! What are you doing here? “You ...” The second elder became even more excited when he saw Ning Yan. However, he didn’t dare to ask any more questions, because he was afraid that he would hear bad news from Ning Yan’s mouth. This could be considered a lie to himself!
“Second elder, something big has happened in the ning family. The master and the others have gone missing, and two elders have died. I’ve come to inform you of this news.” Ning Yan explained, his face still looking Haggard.
“So, this matter is true? How did this happen?” The second elder’s face turned pale after hearing this. Seeing this, Ning Yan repeated what he had said to Leng ruoxue the day before to the other elders.
After the elders heard this, they were silent for a long time.
After a long time, the second elder spoke with a trembling voice,””Master! No! The head of the family and the elders will be fine. ”
“Right! With the master around, they would be fine! Isn’t the Jade plate of life of the master still in good condition? They’ll be safe and sound. ” Some of the elders who had also suffered a blow quickly echoed after hearing the second elder’s words.
“Master! You can’t let anything happen to you!” All of a sudden, an elder started wailing. The other elders who were holding on had their eyes reddened as well. Tears were already welling up in their eyes.
“All of you, calm down! Now that G.o.dfather is only missing, who are you trying to show by looking like you’ve just fainted?” Leng ruoxue couldn’t stand it any longer and shouted angrily. Nothing had really happened to G.o.dfather yet, and they were already like a group of Dragons without a leader. This was really infuriating! Moreover, she had asked them to come here to discuss some matters, not to see them cry and shout.
Leng ruoxue’s words made many elders so ashamed that they wished they could find a hole to hide in. Even though they wanted to calm down and not embarra.s.s themselves, this was because the family head meant a lot to them! Aside from being the ancestor of the ning family, the master of the ning family was also the pillar and backbone of the ning family. They simply couldn’t imagine what the ning family would be like without their ancestor. Therefore, when they first heard that their ancestor had gone missing, the only feeling they had was fear.
“I called you here to discuss how to deal with this matter! Now, the third elder of the ning family is in charge, and he has already decided to send people to explore the secret realm. I want to hear your opinions. ” When Leng ruoxue saw that they were slowly calming down, she finally revealed her main motive.
“Go! We also want to go to the secret realm! We must save the patriarch and the other elders!” The moment Leng ruoxue finished speaking, an elder immediately spoke up.
“Save G.o.dfather? Can you guys do it?” Leng ruoxue said with a face full of disdain. The moment she heard this, she knew that this was someone who didn’t have his own opinions. His mind wasn’t clear enough either. To put it bluntly, this was someone who liked to cause a ruckus and follow the crowd.
“Why not us? Even the weakest among us is a divine Emperor. If even we can’t save the patriarch, the others won’t stand a chance. ” That person said, extremely unconvinced.
“But, G.o.dfather’s strength is above all of you. He also went missing in the secret realm. If you go, won’t you also be sending yourselves to your deaths?” Leng ruoxue’s beautiful face was filled with mockery.
“If you’re all trapped inside, then the ning family really has no hope. Is this the result you want to see? Or is it not enough that you’ve seen G.o.dfather go missing, and you want to anger him to death?” Leng ruoxue added without holding back.
“Then what do you suggest we do?” The elder who spoke was a little angry. F * ck! He couldn’t go, and he couldn’t not go either. Wouldn’t this put him in a difficult position?
“Little girl, do you have any good ideas?” The second elder asked as he looked at Leng ruoxue expectantly.
“Second elder! Do you also have the same thoughts as the third elder and want to personally explore the secret realm?” Leng ruoxue retorted.
“This ... I do have that idea, but, as you said, our strength is not as strong as the patriarch ‘s, and he has gone missing in there. If we go in too, it will be the same as giving it to him for free! That’s why I can’t make a decision now. ” The second elder said honestly.
“Second elder! Since you want to hear my suggestion, then I’ll tell you. My opinion is that none of you should go there!” Leng ruoxue suggested. As for whether these people would accept her suggestion or not, it was not up to her to decide.
“Not going? Then what can we do? We can’t just stand by and watch our clansmen get into trouble, can we?” The second elder said worriedly.
“No one knows what happened to the secret realm. No one knows whether the elder who died committed suicide or was killed. However, no matter what the reason is, the ning family can’t panic. So, at this time, you should stay in the family to prevent the enemy from taking advantage of the situation.” Leng ruoxue said calmly.
“You mean, this could be a conspiracy?” The second elder immediately understood what was going on after hearing Leng ruoxue’s words. However, if what Leng ruoxue said was true and this was a plot against the ning family or all the top forces in the divinity, then the person who planned this must be very ambitious!
“I can’t be sure if it’s a conspiracy, but I wonder if second elder still remembers the snowy mountain secret realm from a few years ago. Back then, many families and forces on the G.o.dly mainland were involved. It was a conspiracy.” Leng ruoxue reminded.
“I’ve heard about that too, but we still haven’t found the mastermind, right? Could the person behind these two secret realms be the same person?” He remembered clearly that the master had attached great importance to that matter. Even after returning to the ning family, his face was very ugly. Although they really wanted to know what had happened to make the master lose his composure, no one dared to ask.
“I’m just suspecting, I’m not sure. ” Leng ruoxue sighed softly. If the person behind these two Mystic realms was really the same person, then what was his objective?
“Second elder! If the person behind these two secret realms is really the same person, then all the more you can’t go there. Think about it, even G.o.dfather can’t do anything about that secret realm, what’s the use of you going there? To put it bluntly, if G.o.dfather can protect himself, you guys will only drag him down if you go. ” After some thought, Leng ruoxue said in an impolite manner.
“But if we don’t do anything and just wait at home, we’ll go crazy from worry.” The second elder said with a conflicted expression.
“You’re not just waiting at home, you’re guarding the ning family’s base, understand?” Leng ruoxue corrected him.
“I understand! However, they still had to send some people to explore the mystic realm, right? Otherwise, we won’t be able to rest easy. ” The second elder said softly. When he said this, it was obvious that he did not have much confidence.
“Second elder! If news could be transmitted in the secret realm, G.o.dfather and the others wouldn’t have disappeared for no reason. So, I think it’s useless even if you send people there. On the contrary, it will cause more ning family members to be trapped inside. Thus, the best way is for you to be patient and plan before you act. ” Leng ruoxue said with a hint of disappointment.
“Moreover, it’s not like no one has gone to the secret realm to explore it.” Leng ruoxue laughed.
“Uh! Didn’t you say that we’re not allowed to go?” The second elder was confused.
