Rebirth of the Heavenly Empress - Chapter 659
Chapter 659: The Person Calling Herself Miss Su
Su Huiqing had sneaked out of the Dugu Family in advance so she didn’t know that Dugu Heng had caused a scene when he returned.
However, she didn’t pay much attention to all of this because, at this moment, she had arrived at a territory that no one thought highly of.
The north of the seas was a desolate place.
Unlike the other families, this piece of land didn’t even have the simplest border defense. If not for Su Huiqing’s incident, the Dugu Family wouldn’t even remember this piece of land.
Yu Shijin didn’t know either. When he went to the Dugu Family, he only knew that Su Huiqing had shown him a piece of barren land. He never expected this place to be so barren.
The most useless piece of land overseas.
There were no mines or other resources. When the fighter jet stopped here, he could not help but frown.
Yu Han and the rest could tell that Yu Shijin was unhappy, but they were also puzzled. “It’s actually so desolate. It’s worse than I thought. Master Yu, do you want to persuade Miss Su…?”
Yu Shijin glanced at Yu Han and followed behind Su Huiqing.
Seeing that Yu Shijin was ignoring them, Yu Han and the other two exchanged glances and didn’t speak further. They just frowned at the people around them. Most of them were ordinary people.
It was not that they looked down on ordinary people, but… in this place where ordinary people were everywhere, how could Miss Su develop?
They might not even have enough manpower.
Anyone overseas should know that such a place could not be bought even if they wanted to.
However, they would not interfere too much with Su Huiqing and Yu Shijin’s decisions.
Even though it was a wasteland, this was still the Dugu Family’s territory. The Dugu Family still had a manager stationed here for generations.
Dugu Xiyuan was the manager stationed here. He had been here for hundreds of years. At this moment, he was sitting in his own garden and drinking. Beside his room was a tall building. It was not difficult to tell that, a long time ago, this was still a noble’s territory.
However, it had been neglected for many years, and this tall and grand building had already lost its luster.
“Manager, there’s news from the main family. They said that a young lady is going to take over our northern territory.” Someone entered with an excited expression.
Dugu Xiyuan poured himself a cup of tea and said coldly, “When are they arriving?”
“According to the main family’s reply, she should be arriving soon. She is a big shot in the main family. However, I see that you don’t seem very happy?” That person carefully glanced at Dugu Xiyuan.
“Happy? What’s there to be happy about?” Dugu Xiyuan sneered. “No one in the north has dared to interfere for a hundred years. Now, someone has actually taken over. I’m afraid she’s not a disciple who has been abandoned by her family. It’s very difficult for us to survive now. We don’t have a source of spirit coins and still have to raise another team. In the end, we still have to rely on the Miao Family’s guards to protect us and offer sacrifices to them. A person from the main family came? What can she do? We didn’t get many spirit coins in the first place, and we still have to give her 10%?!”
Upon hearing Dugu Xiyuan’s words, that guard suddenly thought of this, and his expression gradually turned grave. “However, she is the Missy of the main family after all. Since she can be assigned territory, she shouldn’t be too bad.”
“That’s right. I heard that they will even assign a guard team.” Dugu Xiyuan stood up, and his eyes lit up. “This way, at least we don’t need to rely on the Miao Family’s guard team anymore!”
At this moment, someone reported from outside. “Manager Dugu, someone outside who claims to be Miss Su wants to see you.”
