The villain is whitewashed: the heroine regrets it

The five major families have been friends with each other since thousands of years ago, and their relationship with Tianji Longji is much farther away. If they trace it, they can probably trace back to the era of Sword God Quan Dan. They were able to connect closely at the beginning precisely because of Quan Dan was the great enemy, but now Quan Dan had already died.

Without a critical enemy, this unbreakable alliance seems less solid...

Long Yuanzhao opened the window and saw that the sky was gray and gray. It had been cloudy for the past few days. The dark clouds were accumulating more and more, and it seemed that a storm was really going to happen. There was a gloomy look in his eyes, and his face turned cold.

Not long after, Chang Qiji, Ning Lie, Dongfang Qing, and Xia Yihan who were invited entered the room one after another.

As soon as Ning Lie came in, he laughed loudly and said, "Master Supreme, what happened that made you call us all here in such a hurry?"

Long Yuanzhao said with a faint smile: "It's nothing serious, I just think we haven't got together to chat for a long time."

"Haha..." Chang Qiji let out a short, brisk laugh. He is Long Yuanzhao's friend since he was a child, so his words are obviously bold and intimate, "Come on, among the six of us is Who won't come to the meeting first?"

"I..." Before Long Yuanzhao could speak, Dongfang Qing smiled wickedly and said, "It's you!"

Faced with Dongfang Qing's sharp ridicule, even Long Yuanzhao could only scratch his head and surrender: "Ying'er has grown up, I hope she can take over Tianji Longji's affairs soon."

"That girl Yinger is indeed excellent, but I don't think you should give her so much power."

Long Yuanzhao was taken aback when he heard the words, "Patriarch Dongfang, are you suspicious of Ying Er?"

Dongfang Qing shrugged, "Although she is excellent, she has too little experience and is easily manipulated by others, so she is not suitable for such an important position. She is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy her. If she is our Dongfang family I will definitely hide her well, instead of putting her there as a target."

Long Yuanzhao lowered his eyes and thought for a while, then applauded: "Patriarch Dongfang really has great foresight!"

"Huh?" Long Yuanzhao looked back, frowned and asked, "Where is Patriarch Lin? Why didn't he come?"

"Don't you know he's seriously ill?"

Long Yuanzhao gently supported the chair, then pretended to be casual and asked: "Have you gone to show him?"

"No, the Lin family is so mysterious, I can't understand it." Dongfang Qing sat down on the chair, and then put a pair of beautiful legs on the table, regardless of her own image.

Long Yuanzhao's eyes immediately darkened, and he opened the curtains again, only to see that the dark clouds piled up outside finally began to rain heavily, a flash of lightning, and soon there was a thunder, which illuminated half of Long Yuanzhao's face.

He said in a deep voice: "In the past, I heard the old man say that people can only share adversity, but not wealth.

"Hundreds of years ago, we were still united in the face of the powerful sword god Quan Dan, but now..." Long Yuanzhao glanced at the empty chair left for Ji Yi, "But someone wants to betray the old oath."

As soon as Long Yuanzhao said these few words, the scene suddenly became solemn, and finally Chang Qi stood up as a peacemaker, "Yuan Zhao, what are you talking about? Now the six of us are all rich and powerful, no one will Break your oath."

"is it?"

Chang Qiji didn't understand why Long Yuanzhao asked such a question on purpose, but he still answered bravely, "Of course."

Unexpectedly, as soon as his words fell, Long Yuanzhao flew into a rage, "I, the supreme being, was elected by you."

"Back then, you all swore that whoever betrayed me would suffer a terrible death."

"You guys said these words yourself, I didn't force you, so you should ask yourself again, how have I, Long Yuanzhao and Tianji Longji, treated you badly all these years?"

Long Yuanzhao slammed down the table and said sadly: "Why are some people just not satisfied?"

Ning Lie's eyes widened, and he didn't understand why Long Yuanzhao said these words. Chang Qiji, who was supposed to act as a peacemaker, froze in embarrassment, while Dongfang Qing looked up at the sky in a nonchalant manner. The Patriarch of the Xia Family, Xia Yihan, held his chin thoughtfully.

After a long time, Long Yuanzhao waved his hand and said, "Go down and have a good rest first, I have ordered my servants to prepare meals, if you are not in a hurry, stay in Hanging City for a few days, let us old guys have a good talk Reminiscing about the past."

Dongfang Qing's eyes turned cold, "Who do you call an old man?"

Her sudden anger broke the oppressive atmosphere just now, and everyone laughed, "People who are hundreds of years old still don't accept their old age?"

"Chang Qiji, are you tired of working, dare to tease my old lady?" Dongfang Qing raised her brows upside down, and wanted to settle accounts with Chang Qiji when she stood up, a group of people fought and walked out of the room.

At this time, Long Yuanzhao suddenly shouted: "Patriarch Xia, please stop, I have something to ask you."

Everyone looked at Xia Yihan suspiciously, only to see Xia Yihan turned around to face Long Yuanzhao, they saw that Long and Xia had important matters to talk about and left in a friendly manner.

Long Yuanzhao coughed, his expression had returned to calm, and he could not see any emotion like the surface of a lake, "Have you found out what Patriarch Xia asked you to investigate?"

Xia Yihan replied: "The result is almost here."

"You have to speed up. I can feel that the wind is about to blow. We can't wait until something happens to deal with it. We will pay a heavy price like that."

"I see!"

Long Yuanzhao nodded in satisfaction, "I am very relieved of you. Ning Lie is irritable, aggressive, Dongfang is indifferent, and Lin Yi is stubborn. When the six of us were young, you were the most calm and composed one."

Xia Yihan didn't show any emotion on his face, he said coldly: "Can I go?"

"Of course!" Long Yuanzhao said with a smile: "Relax for a few days, don't take these things to heart, trust me, it's not a big deal."

Xia Yihan finally let out a long sigh after hearing the words, "Hey! I hope so."

Looking at Xia Yihan's leaving back, Long Yuanzhao clearly realized that a storm was brewing, but he never expected that the hidden enemy would target Long Ying.

That happened after Long Yuanzhao sent Xia Yihan and others away. The Fourth Elder who was in charge of intelligence collection and interrogation suddenly came to report to him: "Zhou Feng, the leader of Zixiao Sect, confessed."

The Zixiao Sect was a force that openly rebelled against Tianji Longji some time ago, but this rebellion was quickly extinguished. Long Yuanzhao felt that the Zixiao Sect was just a second-rate force. If there were no other forces behind it to support it, he would never dare to do it If this kind of thing happened, he handed it over to the Fourth Elder for interrogation.

Long Yuanzhao was not particularly happy when he heard Zhou Feng's confession, because Zhou Feng was obviously a pawn pushed on the stage by others, and the pawn could know any useful information.

He asked without interest: "Oh...he confessed who directed him."

The Fourth Elder said respectfully: "After being interrogated by my subordinates, he revealed everything."

"Who is behind the scenes?"

"This..." The Fourth Elder hesitated and said, "This subordinate dare not say."

Long Yuanzhao glanced at him and said displeasedly: "I tell you what to say, what? Is that person very powerful?"

The fourth elder said with a sudden heart: "That person... the mastermind behind the scenes... is the young master Long Ying"
