Rebirth of the Heavenly Empress

Chapter 343: Don’t Know How to Die

At the same time…

At Ling Jun’s residence, Ling Jun—who was chatting with a young man—suddenly had a look of surprise on his face. “Their people are here too?”

“It seems to be… from the Dugu Family.” The young man sitting opposite him had a stern look on his face.

“The Dugu Family…” Ling Jun nodded slightly. He glanced at the young man before him and said meaningfully, “Although the Dugu Family Head is heavily injured, it is easy for Young Master Yun to touch the Dugu Family.

“After all, from the looks of it, the Dugu Family Head seems to be chosen by the Dugu Family overseas.”

“Your Highness Ling Jun, you must be joking.” Young Master Yun’s face turned stern. “Let’s not talk about the Dugu Family overseas. Even the Dugu Family now has a level seven weapon and Master Yu. How could I dare to touch them?”

Ling Jun glanced at Young Master Yun and laughed, but didn’t say anything.

…

Not only did such a thing happen at Ling Jun’s place, but almost all the big and small families in the International Association who were in contact with the overseas families had come to the airport to receive such news.

When the Ye Family elder heard the words of the person from overseas, he couldn’t help but be taken aback. In the end, he laughed out loud. “I was wondering why the Dugu Family Head is so unreasonable. Everyone is afraid of him.

“In terms of spirit coins—other than Young Master Yu, all the other families in the International Association can’t even match up to him! So that’s how it is! No wonder, no wonder!”

The person from the Ye Family who came from overseas was also a potion maker. Upon hearing this, he glanced at Elder Ye. “It’s a pity. Since he was chosen by the Dugu Family overseas, the Dugu Family Head should have a genius bloodline of at least A-level and above. Now that he’s almost crippled, there’s nothing he can do…”

“That might not be the case.” Upon hearing that, the Ye Family elder recalled Su Huiqing’s strange abilities and smiled mysteriously.

“You have also heard that even if such an injury can be treated, only top-notch potion makers can refine such a potion. But even top-notch potion makers are rare in the International Association, not to mention the International Association…”

The person from the Ye Family who came from overseas couldn’t help but laugh when he saw Elder Ye’s confident look. “I can tell you that on the entire second-class island, there are many potion makers of this level.

“Every one of them is an existence that even the Ling Family doesn’t dare to slack off.”

The Ye Family elder nodded, but he recalled Su Huiqing in his heart. He didn’t know what level she had reached.

…

Outside the Dugu Family residence…

A group of men in black stood in a flock of chickens. No one dared to overlook the domineering aura they exuded.

When the first elder and fifth elder came out and saw them, their faces were filled with shock.

“We are Mr. Dugu’s secret guards.” The group of people looked at the elders and said in a deep voice, “Mr. Dugu is a top-notch genius in our clan. The chief knows about Mr. Dugu’s situation and especially sent us to fetch him and Dugu Ji-An.”

The first elder had always known about the existence of these people. Back then, Dugu Ji-An’s B+ ranked talent had also been taken over by those people. Only a few people knew about this.

The others only knew that Dugu Ji-An’s future was not in the Dugu Family, but no one knew exactly where they went.

“Sirs.” The first elder quickly concealed his expression. “The family head already predicted it before he left. He told you to protect Missy until she entered the training grounds.”

“What? You want us to protect someone from the International Association?!” Before the leader of the men in black could speak, his brows furrowed uncontrollably.

Seeing the first elder taking out what Dugu Heng had prepared, the leader of the men in black nodded. “Alright, we will stay here for two days.”

After the first elder and gang left, the man in black frowned in confusion. “Why are we staying here?”

“Mr. Dugu’s daughter is just an ordinary person. We can just take a look at her.” The leader of the men in black shook his head. “Otherwise, when Mr. Dugu wakes up, we will have to bear the blame.”

Although they weren’t interested in protecting a weakling in the International Association, they didn’t know what to say when they heard their boss say that.

“Missy, this is the family head’s secret guard.” Inside the house, the first elder only spoke carefully when he saw Su Huiqing retract her silver needles.

Her attitude was many times better than when she faced those secret guards earlier.

Su Huiqing put down her silver needles and glanced sideways at them. She knew that it was Dugu Heng’s good intentions, so she gave him a faint ‘hmm’.

Seeing that Su Huiqing was neither angry nor impatient, the first elder heaved a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that Su Huiqing would strangle those secret guards to death.

She had just left the house when she saw the second elder leaving with his family.

The first elder stopped in his tracks and looked at the second elder with a serious expression. “Did you go look for that traitor Dugu Xing? Don’t you know what she is?”

Hearing this, the second elder had no intention of hiding anything. “What traitor? Xing’er was originally someone who could enter the training grounds. Moreover, now that the family head has fallen, why would I stay?!”

The fifth elder’s expression changed. “At least the Dugu Family and Missy are still around. Although she is not the head of the Dugu Family—as long as she is around, no one will dare to touch the Dugu Family!”

“You still have the cheek to talk about Su Huiqing? Now that the head of the Dugu Family has lost his power, the Dugu Family is now in a dire state. If I don’t leave now, will I be waiting for her to kill me?”

The second elder glanced at the fifth elder and sneered. “Fifth Elder, you have also offended Su Huiqing before. I advise you to find a way out as soon as possible. Otherwise, you won’t even know how you died.”
