C542 The Crisis of the Long Family
The five of them had been trying to become sworn brothers, and they had forgotten about it. There was still Loong Xue by their side. At this moment, when they saw Loong Xue kneeling on the ground, the five of them were stunned. They were somewhat surprised and did not understand what Loong Xue meant.2
Everyone looked at Zhang Fann and also wanted to see what Zhang Fann meant.
Zhang Fann looked at Loong Xue in front of him and said to her, "Miss Loong, there is no need to be like this. If there is anything, just get up and talk."
Although Zhang Fann said so, Loong Xue still did not get up. Two lines of clear tears slid down her cheeks, as if her heart was filled with bitterness.
Ninth Master Lu walked forward and said to Loong Xue, "Miss Loong, along the way, we can be considered to have suffered and suffered together. If there are any difficulties, just say whatever you want. Why are you doing this?"
Loong Xue wiped her tears and said to everyone, "To tell you the truth, I do have something that I need your help with. Please help our Loong family!"
Hearing Loong Xue's words, Zhang Fann had already thought of something. When Loong Xue was chatting with him, she had mentioned the current situation of the Loong family. There were internal and external problems. Patriarch Loong was now injured and his combat strength was less than 50%. If the Loong family really encountered an expert, the Loong family would definitely receive a huge blow.
However, Zhang Fann still needed to know more about the details. Even if he went to help, he wouldn't be too blind. This would be detrimental to him, Ninth Master Lu and the others.
"You should get up first. Tell me more about the Loong family. This way, I will know how to help you." Zhang Fann said to Loong Xue sincerely.
Loong Xue wiped her tears and stood up from the ground. She began to tell Zhang Fann about the Loong family's situation. It turned out that the Loong family's situation was even worse than what Zhang Fann had imagined.
Ever since Loong Xue came to look for the Ice Spirit Bead, Patriarch Loong had been injured in the forbidden area in the back mountain. The Loong family had started to have internal and external troubles. Although Patriarch Loong had ordered everyone to seal off the news, Otherwise, there might be someone who would be very disadvantageous to the Loong family.
However, in less than three days, The news of Patriarch Loong's injury had spread across the entire martial world. In other words, In the Loong family, there must be someone who is disobedient. They even wanted to kill the Loong family, which was why they had spread the news. From that day onwards, the Loong family's business outside was repeatedly pushed aside by many people. Some of the disciples of the Loong family were even injured. Sometimes, there would even be cases of death.
From this, it could be seen that the fat meat of the Loong family had already caused many people to covet it. Some people had even openly started looking for trouble with the Loong family. They had occupied some of the territory of the Loong family and robbed it of its business.
Some of the people who studied in the Loong family also left one after another. Some of the people who had business dealings with the Loong family also disappeared without a trace, leaving the Loong family far away to avoid getting into trouble.
As a result, the Loong family's business was shrinking. Some of them had even been forced into a desperate situation and would soon fall apart.
Some of the smaller families and sects had been favoured by the Loong family's Yulu, which was why they had been able to develop well. But now, these small sects and families had betrayed the Loong family one after another. They didn't care about the past. They had betrayed the Loong family. They had even sold some information about the Loong family to the enemies of the Loong family.
Not only that, but what was even worse was that the people of the Imperial Family had also started to keep an eye on the Loong family. This was something that needed to be mentioned about the matter between Ninth Duke, Dong Kun and Loong Xue.
This Ninth Duke was a lustful person. He even had some medicinal Alchemists specially concocted for him to refine medicinal pills related to positive effects. This way, he would be able to control countless women.
One day, Ninth Duke came to the Loong family as a guest and Patriarch Loong welcomed him. At this time, Loong Xue came back and greeted Patriarch Loong. However, it was this time that Ninth Duke was attracted by Loong Xue's beauty. He even shamelessly asked Patriarch Loong if Loong Xue could marry him.
Initially, Patriarch Loong thought that Ninth Duke was joking. However, Ninth Duke said some dirty words and even wanted to take Loong Xue as his concubine. This made Patriarch Loong very unhappy. He even ordered Ninth Duke to leave.
Ninth Duke didn't get angry. Instead, he said three words to Patriarch Loong and walked away.
This time, the Loong family was in trouble. Ninth Duke saw an opportunity and came to negotiate with Patriarch Loong. As long as Patriarch Loong betrothed Loong Xue to Ninth Duke as a concubine, he would be able to do so. In that case, Ninth Duke would use the power of the Sovereign Family to help the Loong family regain everything they had lost.
Patriarch Loong was a man of integrity. Although such a disaster had happened to the Loong family, Patriarch Loong would never harm Loong Xue's happiness. It was very unfair for Loong Xue to trade for the future of the Loong family.
After rejecting Ninth Duke, the Loong family had once again established an enemy. That was the Imperial Family, led by Ninth Duke. They started to oppress the Loong family. No matter how much they tried, they would be forced to endure it no matter how much they tried. However, the other party wouldn't show any mercy because of the Loong family's backing. He would still push his luck. Continuing to oppress the Loong family made the people of the Loong family feel miserable.
Some disciples of the Loong family even felt that only by escaping from the Loong family would they be able to live a normal life. Thus, they began to leave the Loong family one after another.
However, the next morning, These disciples who had left the Loong family would turn into corpses and be sent back to the gate of the Loong family. They were all done by the enemies of the Loong family. Their goal was to put the Loong family to death. In fact, they would eat everything in the Loong family bit by bit. In the end, they would eat everything in the Loong family. As long as the Loong family couldn't hold on any longer, they would be eaten by other families or sects.
Patriarch Loong was also very distressed about this, but he had no other choice. In the face of everything before him, Patriarch Loong's current strength was insufficient, so he could only compromise. However, the enemy kept pressing on and eventually forced the Loong family into a desperate situation.
Therefore, Patriarch Loong asked Long Xue to bring some people to the Desert Pass to search for the Ice Spirit Bead. Before Loong Xue left, Patriarch Loong stuffed a letter to Loong Xue's follower, asking him to wait until he entered the Desert Pass for a period of time before handing the letter to Loong Xue. In the letter, he wrote down the current situation of the Loong family.
Moreover, at the end of the letter, Patriarch Loong instructed Loong Xue to return to the Loong family as soon as possible if she found the Ice Spirit Bead. In this way, it was possible to find a treasure in that mysterious cave, and it could even turn the Loong family upside down.
If Loong Xue could not find the Ice Spirit Pearl within a month, then she would never return to the Long family, because there were too many enemies in the Loong family and it was possible that they would no longer exist. He asked Loong Xue to find a new place or a new continent to live a good life.
