Rebirth of the Heavenly Empress

Chapter 490: Ignore Her!

Upon hearing this, Long Xue suddenly stood up, and her expression changed. “What happened?!”

Mayor Long was the leader of this town. With him around, it could stabilize the army’s morale. For so many years, nothing happened. Their town was at the borders overseas and lacked resources. Usually, no experts would come to their poor town.

Something had happened to the Long Family Head today. Moreover, according to the butler, the other party had severely injured Mayor Long.

Not to mention Long Xue and the butler, those elders, Long Yun, and the rest only had one word: panic!

Su Huiqing had already taken out her communications device. Seeing this, she couldn’t help but narrow her eyes.

The other three also looked at each other.

“Let’s go take a look.” Su Huiqing led the way, her eyes slightly dark.

The three of them obviously had the same thoughts and immediately followed Su Huiqing up.

The Long Family was already in a mess. Their pillar of support had fallen, and it was unknown if they were dead or alive. No one cared about Su Huiqing and the rest.

In the Long Family Head’s room, a potion maker was showing him the condition of his body.

Qu Yan glanced at Yu Xiangyang. “How is it? Does this potion maker have a way to save Master Long?”

Yu Xiangyang and the rest did not enter. With their status, they were not qualified to enter either. Hence, they only looked out the window. “The Long Family Head must have suffered a heart attack. The person who did it was quite ruthless. This potion maker is only at the level of a basic-level potion. I think it’s very difficult.”

Just as he finished speaking, the potion maker stood up and shook his head.

No matter how the Long Family elder tried to persuade him, he refused to stay.

Su Huiqing and Yu Xiangyang knew the situation of the Long Family at a glance. Su Huiqing stroked her chin thoughtfully.

The four of them were about to leave when Long Xue, who had always been at odds with Long Yun, suddenly knelt down. “Long Yun, I know that Cousin is a servant outside the miracle doctor’s door. I beg Cousin to save my father’s life. In the future, my life will be yours!”

Not to mention Long Yun, even Su Huiqing and the rest didn’t expect Long Xue—who usually hated Long Yun the most—to actually do this.

However, Long Yun only glanced at Long Xue. Her expression didn’t change at all. “Cousin, it’s not that I don’t want to help you. Do you think it’s so easy to ask for a potion from the miracle doctor’s sect? Tell me who the mayor provoked. Investigate it first so that it won’t bring disaster to our family.”

With that, she covered her mouth and left. She didn’t head in the direction of the Long Family residence but walked towards the main door.

Long Xue fell to the ground in a daze.

The others from the Long Family also looked at each other. Apart from the butler, no one cared about Long Xue.

Su Huiqing frowned, pushed the door open, and walked in. She helped Long Xue up. Long Xue was a little enlightened and laughed self-deprecatingly. “That’s right. Why would they care about my dad? Even the most powerful potion maker in town said that he can’t be treated. My dad will never recover in this lifetime. He’s useless to Long Yun. Why would she help my dad? I was too naive.”

Yu Xiangyang frowned and glanced at Su Huiqing.

Su Huiqing just pursed her lips and remained expressionless.

Outside the door, Long Yun had already packed her things and returned to her home.

Long Yun’s father said mildly, “The school’s test will be in two days. You can’t lose this opportunity because of them.”

“Then, are we not going to care about Cousin?” Long Yun asked softly.

“Your uncle still doesn’t know what kind of person he provoked. Now that he has fallen, who else in the Long Family can withstand him? I have already said that Long Xue is nothing without her father. Now, it can be considered asking for trouble. Let’s just watch.” Long Yun’s father sneered.

Long Yun lowered her head uneasily, but there was a smile in her eyes.
