Chapter 2684 The General Union’s Struggle (2)
But when the Feng clan"s former steward heard Feng Zhan"s words, his eyes widened in disbelief and shock. He trembled as he said,""Wutong, isn"t the mother Wutong already dead?"
"You b.a.s.t.a.r.d! You"re the one who"s dead!" When Feng Zhan heard this, he roared in anger. To say that someone had died in front of them, was this something a normal and intelligent Beastie would do?
"Uh! I didn"t mean it that way. " A certain Butler was very embarra.s.sed.
"It"s okay, little guy. I understand what you mean. I"m not dead. I"m still alive and well. " At this moment, the mother parasol tree gently stroked the head of a certain Butler and said softly.
"Old ancestor ..." A certain Butler was touched. The old ancestor was so gentle!
"You dare to try crying?" Seeing that his subordinate was thinking of rain again, Feng Zhan immediately shouted.
"Don"t scare it. Look at how scared it is. " Leng ruoxue glanced at the trembling Butler and said helplessly.
"Master, this fellow is too stupid. I really don"t understand why the Phoenix King would let it be the housekeeper!" Feng Zhan complained. Then, she briefly explained to her master the reason why this stupid Butler was here. Only then did Leng ruoxue understand that this Butler had been captured by humans before and had been accidentally rescued by uncle long and the others.
"I think it was frightened by you." Leng ruoxue"s eyes were burning as she spoke after understanding the Butler"s experience.
"Is that so?" Feng Zhan blinked, then looked at the housekeeper and said loudly,""You"re afraid of me?"
"Don "t, don"t be afraid! I, I"m not afraid!" A certain Butler trembled as he whispered.
You"re still not afraid?
Feng Zhan, Leng ruoxue, and the parasol tree mother tree were all speechless. However, Feng Zhan was kind enough not to make things difficult for that stupid subordinate.
After the feather landed, Leng ruoxue and the mother parasol tree received a warm welcome from uncle long and the rest at their doorstep.
However, Leng ruoxue and the mother parasol tree were a little frightened by the crowd"s enthusiasm. Helpless, Leng ruoxue could only move out her own people from her house and wake up those who were in closed-door cultivation.
Then, she instructed Qing Jue to wake up the people who were in seclusion in the bracelet.
When his grandfather, big brother, and the cheapskate ancestor saw their old friends who had not seen each other for a long time, they naturally exchanged warm greetings.
Uncle long had also arranged for people to prepare a grand banquet to welcome the Luo family, Wanshan city, the Leng family, and the LAN family. Looking at the magnificent scene of nearly 10000 people, uncle Long"s eyes shone with a Wolf-like green light, which made the people from the Haotian continent s.h.i.+ver.
Isn"t this a little too enthusiastic?
He was so enthusiastic that it made people wonder if the other party had any ulterior motives! The group of people from the Haotian continent felt particularly uneasy.
After the celebration banquet ended, the Haotian continent"s representative, led by Leng Xiaoqing, went to find Xue "er in private and asked about the matter.
Leng ruoxue didn"t know whether to laugh or cry when she heard their doubts and worries.
Was it wrong to be a little more enthusiastic?
However, uncle long and the others were indeed too enthusiastic. It was no wonder that they were frightened.
After some thought, Leng ruoxue smiled and explained,"don"t worry, I won"t sell you guys off. Uncle long is only so friendly because he"s happy to have help."
"A helper?" Leng Xiaoqing and the others could not understand.
"As you can see, my Demon City is under construction, and I need manpower the most. So, since you want to stay here, you naturally have to do some work. Of course, if you have a better place, I won"t force you!" Leng ruoxue said calmly.
As soon as she finished speaking, the few people present naturally understood.
Of course, they wanted to stay with Leng ruoxue. One had to know that this was the divine realm! They could be in danger of losing their lives at any moment. Without Leng ruoxue"s protection, it would be difficult for them to move a single step in the divinity. Therefore, it was really nothing to make them work a little.
The few of them had no objections to Leng ruoxue"s request. After that, Leng ruoxue sent them to uncle long and let him arrange their work.
Uncle long first inspected everyone that Leng ruoxue had brought back. The people from the Luo family and Wanshan city were his own people, so he was naturally satisfied. These people didn"t have any arrogance and were obedient. Basically, they would do anything. But what about the Leng and LAN families? It was easy to arrange for these people who were used to doing manual labor and did not have a high status. What made it difficult for him was the elders who were high up in the Leng and LAN families and had quite a high status. These people were not easy to arrange!
In uncle Long"s eyes, these people were simply the clan"s insects, the type that just ate and waited for death! Because in terms of strength, they were not the highest! In terms of status, they were not the highest either! However, they were very difficult to serve, even more difficult than the ancestors of the Leng and LAN families!
At least those old ancestors and Zong level people could see the situation clearly and know what should and shouldn"t be done. However, many of these people were not clear about it and still felt that they were insufferably arrogant and needed others to look up to them as elders!
Uncle long had never been soft-hearted when dealing with people like this.
The ancestors of the Leng family and the LAN family knew what kind of people they had, so they had told uncle long to use their people as he pleased.
Of course, uncle long wouldn"t stand on ceremony. Since he was here, he had the final say. However, he was still quite gratified that the other party"s old ancestor could make such a statement. At least there were still people who understood.
After everyone had been a.s.signed their jobs, uncle long finally let out a sigh of relief. With the help of these people, Demon City would be completed in less than a month!
However, his plan was very good. When the work had just begun, some elders of the LAN family and the Leng family were already very dissatisfied with the heavy work that uncle long had arranged for them.
In the hearts of some of the elders, they were elders after all. Even if they didn"t arrange some light work for them, they shouldn"t let them do such heavy work, right? One had to know that some of the blue and cold clansmen, whose status were lower than theirs, had an easier job than them. This fact made them feel particularly unbalanced.
With this thought in mind, they quickly went to complain to their ancestor.
When Leng Xiaoqing and the LAN clan"s old ancestor heard this, they did not even frown. They only told them that it was fine if they did not do it, but they had to leave this place.
In fact, the ancestors of the Leng and LAN families were well aware that the workplace uncle Dragon had arranged for them would be given to them as their territory in the future. In other words, as long as the construction of the workplace was completed, they could settle down in Demon City. This was much better than letting them wander around like headless flies. Furthermore, this was the divinity, not the Haotian continent. With Leng ruoxue as their backer, they were more than happy to have her. How could they let a few clansmen who could not bear hards.h.i.+ps destroy the shallow friends.h.i.+p between the two sides?
