C3009 The Lu Family's Worry
After a night of heavy snow, apart from the morning news reporting that the temperature in Jingdu had dropped by a new level and that the snowfall had increased, the Yi, Wan, and Tang families had officially announced their withdrawal from the seven great families. This had also become a shocking matter.
The family alliance that had existed for thousands of years had dispersed as soon as it was announced.
In the eyes of the public, there was no warning, and it caused a huge uproar.
With the worsening weather, many people felt that this year would be a year of disaster, be it in terms of economy or anything else.
Before the end of the year, everyone was already in danger.
When deities fought, the ones who were injured would always be ordinary people.
Many people guessed that this catastrophe of the seven families was only the beginning of the economic collapse of Z Country.
Many people wanted to see the attitude of Kong Family. After all, Kong Family was the nominal leader of the seven families. However, the patriarch of the Kong family stayed indoors, and the young master of Kong Family kept his mouth shut.
Everyone was confused. An uneasy atmosphere shrouded the entire Jingdu.
It wasn't just the ordinary people who were panicking because of this, even the Lu Family, who was one of the seven big families, was dumbfounded.
The Yuan Family had long been forced out. The Bai Family had also announced that they would withdraw from the seven major families before the New Year. Before the New Year, the Yi family, Wan Family, and Tang Family had already informed the entire nation of the news.
Why hadn't the Lu Family heard anything about it?
What was going on?
"Dad. " Lu Canglin appeared in front of Patriarch Lu with a frown. "Have you heard? The Yi family, Wan Family, and Tang Family have all withdrawn from the seven major families!"
"I've heard about it. " Patriarch Lu looked much calmer than Lu Canglin, but his tightly knitted brows and tight chin showed the nervousness and anxiety in his heart.
"The old patriarch of Tang Family is dead. Patriarch, who is in charge, is a young man. He made such an unstable decision. It was reasonable, but the old patriarch of the Wan Family, the old patriarch of the Yi family, was still here. The current patriarch of the Yi family wasn't a young kid either. Why. . . Why are you so impulsive?!" Lu Canglin paced back and forth with a frown on his face.
. . . "" Patriarch Lu did not respond.
"Dad, what do you think we should do about this?" Lu Canglin said, "The incident in Bai Family before the New Year was a little sudden. I thought that the limelight would pass after the New Year. If the Kong Family submitted to us, or the Bai Family changed their minds, then everything would be settled. "
Now, it seemed like the Bai Family wouldn't be able to stabilize their situation if they turned back, unless the three families turned back as well.
Otherwise, this matter would not be finished!
The alliance of the seven families had been maintained for thousands of years, how could it be destroyed by their generation?
In the future, even if they died, they would not know how to face their ancestors!
"Sigh. . . " Lu Canglin sighed heavily and said. "Dad, what do you think we should do about this?"
"Do you have any news from Kong Family?" Patriarch Lu asked.
"No. The Kong Family has been silent. Should I call them and ask?" Lu Canglin asked.
"There's no need for that. If the Kong Family does anything, they will contact us. " Patriarch Lu said.
"Dad, only the Kong Family and the Lu Family are left in the seven major families. This. . . " Lu Canglin felt strange as he spoke. Out of the seven major families, only two were left. Why were they still called the seven major families?
At the beginning, the Yuan Family was the only one missing, so it wasn't a big deal. But now?
Besides, the seven big families had become a joke.
What was going on!?
"Is there any news from the Long Family?" Patriarch Lu asked.
"Long Family? Are you talking about the Dragon and Phoenix Clans?" Lu Canglin thought for a moment and said, "They didn't say anything. The seven major families were established to fight against the Dragon Phoenix Clan in the early days. Now, the seven major families are acting like this. . . I'm really afraid that they will add insult to injury when they are down. "
This was what Lu Canglin was worried about. Although it was now a peaceful era and everyone's means of competition were lawful and lawful, business was like a battlefield. There were many things that needed to be thought over again and again.
For example, the actions of Bai Family, Yi family, Wan Family and Tang Family were lacking in thinking.
Lu Canglin was anxious.
"Who asked you this?" Patriarch Lu said, "I asked if Matriarch of Long Family had any response. "
"Matriarch of Long Family?" Lu Canglin was slightly stunned. "What happened to her?"
"Hmph. " Patriarch Lu snorted and said," This matter has something to do with her. "
"You mean. . . " Lu Canglin's face froze and looked like he suddenly realized something. "You mean all of this is because of Matriarch of Long Family. . . "
"Don't forget, she is Yuan Dingtian's granddaughter. " Patriarch Lu's face darkened.
"Lu Canglin opened his mouth and slowly closed it. The look in his eyes became more and more complicated.
"Yuan Dingtian. . . Is finally back. " Patriarch Lu sighed and said, "Yi Lanyou is his best weapon. Old Ghost Yuan wants to use Yi Lanyou's weapon to pierce through the armor of the seven families and get revenge for what happened back then!"
"You mean!" Lu Canglin's eyes widened.
"The seven families. . . I'm afraid they won't be able to return. " Patriarch Lu's eyes darkened. It was as if his strength had been drained. He leaned back on the chair, looking extremely exhausted.
"What about us?" Lu Canglin asked.
"She will find us sooner or later. " Patriarch Lu said, "She will come. "
"Lu Canglin did not respond. Yi Lanyou's facial features could not help but appear in his mind.
She was so young. She was obviously the same age as his daughter. How could she have such deep thoughts and strong wrists?
At this moment, the butler hurriedly walked in and said, "patriarch, Sir, there is a letter of greeting. "
"A letter of greeting? Who would hand over the letter at this time?" Lu Canglin was at the moment of frustration. How could he be in the mood to attend a banquet? He immediately furrowed his brows and got ready to ask the butler to reject the invitation.
"Let me have a look. " Patriarch Lu raised his hand.
The butler handed over the invitation card with both hands.
The black envelope was covered with paint, and there was a Dragon Mark totem at the corner that attracted everyone's attention.
Patriarch Lu's heart sank when he saw this totem.
He opened the envelope, and there was a letter inside. It was written in a format, and with just a few simple sentences, Patriarch Lu's expression became more and more solemn.
"Dad?" Lu Canglin noticed that something was wrong with Patriarch Lu's expression, so he called out to him. "What's wrong?"
"Patriarch Lu did not respond. He handed the letter to Lu Canglin.
Lu Canglin took the letter. When he saw the signature, his heart skipped a beat. "They are here!"
"Patriarch Lu's eyes were deep. After a few seconds, he said, "Matriarch of Long Family will pay a visit on the fifth day of the first month. She will receive them according to the highest level of etiquette. "
"Yes. " The butler answered and went to work.
"Dad! Lu Canglin held the letter in his hand and looked at Patriarch Lu nervously. "This. . . "2
"When soldiers come, they will block when water comes. When water comes, earth will block. " Patriarch Lu composed himself and said, "I want to see how big a hole Yuan Dingtian's granddaughter can poke in the sky!"
