Chapter Twenty-Eight: Doomsday City
In the southwest of the Demon Realm, there is a large city called Doomsday City, which is the base of the Lin family, and its prosperity is no worse than the main city of the overlord of the four directions.
In an ancient palace, a middle-aged man over forty years old is sitting in the room, his eyebrows are like swords, his facial features are resolute, and his body exudes an aura of non-anger and self-authority.
"Master, the message from the ghosts of Yama City indicates that you want to check it out for yourself. An old man walked into the room, gently placed a piece of jade slip on the table, and then stood quietly on the edge of the table with his hands vertically.
"Oh!" Lin Xiao, who was originally checking the information from all over the table, frowned, and asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Uncle Xue, what will the ghosts do to find me?"
The old man who was called to Xue Bo by Lin Xiao has been in the Lin family for nearly 30,000 years, Lin Xiao doesn't know how Xue Bo's cultivation is, since he started to cultivate, basically this Xue Bo in front of him has been teaching himself, Lin Xiao heard his grandfather say that this Xue Bo brought four family heads before and after the Lin family, and it is rumored that his four generations of family heads once saved the lives of Xue Bo's family, so Xue Bo has nothing to reciprocate, so he made a promise to serve the Lin family for four generations of family heads, and after the four generations of family heads, he will not owe the Lin family kindness, so Xue Bo's position in the Lin family is very high, even if those old antiques in the forbidden land see him, they have to salute obediently, because most of these old antiques have been instructed by Xue Bo.
"The old slave doesn't know, it's still the old man who has seen it himself!" Xue Bo heard Lin Xiao's question and hurriedly responded.
Lin Xiao heard Uncle Xue's words, smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "Uncle Xue, I didn't say it, when no one is around, you can call me Xiao Linzi or Xiao Xiao, just forget the word master!"
Xue Bo's old face also showed a hint of a smile and refused: "The old slave's kindness to the old slave is remembered by the old slave, but the family has family rules, and etiquette cannot be abolished." ”
Lin Xiao seemed to have long understood that Xue Bo would say this, and waved his hand helplessly: "Xue Bo, I knew you would say that, forget it, whatever you want." ”
"Thank you, sir. Xue Bo thanked him.
Lin Xiao smiled bitterly when he saw Xue Bo like this, he sometimes really didn't understand why a super master like Xue Bo was willing to stay in the Lin family to serve the head of the family, because he himself was the cultivation of the Ghost Emperor, but he couldn't see through Xue Bo's cultivation, what does this mean? This shows that Xue Bo's cultivation has already surpassed himself by much, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a ghost venerable.
"Woe!" Lin Xiao picked up the jade slip on the desktop and looked at it, wanting to see what the ghost would do to find him, under this look, Lin Xiao's face became more and more angry, and finally he couldn't help but stand up, swept it over with one hand, and swept the teacup on the table to the ground, making a clear sound.
The guards outside the room heard the sound of the teacups breaking, and thought that something was happening in the room, and the horses all flashed into the room.
As soon as the guards entered the room, they made a defensive gesture, scanned around, and found that there was no one else in the room, only the master and Xue Bo were there, so they saluted and said, "What does the master command?" ”
"Huh" Lin Xiao let out a long sigh, then calmed down his mood for a while, and ordered lightly: "You guys go down! ”
"Yes, sir. The guards around heard Lin Xiao's words, and the horse disappeared into the shadows again.
Xue Bo's face showed concern and asked Lin Xiao, "Master, what happened to deserve your anger?"
"Alas!" Lin Xiao sighed slightly, and then handed the jade slip in his hand to Xue Bo and said, "I said this shamelessly, or Xue Bo, you can take a look at it yourself!"
Bo didn't excuse himself, on the contrary, he generously took the jade slip and looked at it, and under this look, Xue Bo's brows also frowned.
At this moment, a beautiful man in his thirties walked in from outside the room, this is Lin Xiao's main wife, Wang's face, showed an eager expression and walked towards Lin Xiao, while walking, he shouted: "Master, is there any news of Ren'er?"
"You've come just in time, and I really want to send someone to find you. Lin Xiao saw that the person who came was his wife, and the anger on his face seemed to be even stronger, if it weren't for his wife who doted on his son so much, his son would not have intensified, now it's okay, his face is gone, fortunately, the ghost still gives himself a little thin face, if the ghost spreads the news of his son, then the face of the entire Lin family will be lost, this rebel!
The Wang family is not a fool, on the contrary, the Wang family is a very smart woman, otherwise she would not have sat firmly on the throne of the main room since she married into the Lin family, so as soon as she heard her husband's words, and then looked at her husband's face, she couldn't help but feel a sudden feeling in her heart, could it be that Ren'er had caused some big trouble outside.
"Master, is Ren'er causing some big trouble outside?" Wang asked tentatively, if it was really a disaster, if the problem was small, he could ask his mother's family to come forward to settle it.
Although the Wang family's maiden family is not a family, it also has a bit of power in the ghost world, otherwise how could the Wang family be in the Lin family, which is inseparable from the power of her mother's family.
Lin Xiao heard his wife's words, and looked at his wife in front of him with a sneer, he didn't know what his wife had done over the years, but sometimes he was worried about his own identity and status, plus the Wang family did help the Lin family a lot, and also made a lot of contributions to the Lin family, otherwise, Lin Xiao would have expelled the Wang family from the Lin family a long time ago.
"Do you want to wipe your baby son's ass again?" Lin Xiao asked with a sneer, Lin Xiao was very familiar with his wife's temper of protecting calves, he had seen a lot of this kind of thing.
Wang saw his lord's sneer today, his heart fluttered and beat faster, it seems that his son's disaster this time is not a trivial matter, otherwise it will be like this time, his son beat the son of the city lord of a city next door to half death, and the lord has never seen him like this, could it be that this time Ren'er's disaster broke the sky?
"No, sir, why do you think that?" Wang Shiqiang replied with a smile.
Lin Xiao sneered at his wife in front of him and said, "Take the jade slip of the face to see it yourself! ”
When Wang saw the jade slip logo on the desktop, her heart couldn't help but tremble, because she saw that this jade slip style came from the jade slip dedicated to the city lord of Yama City, could it be that her Ren'er offended them this time.
Wang picked up the jade slip on the table with a complicated mood and a confused mind, and her face became paler and paler the more she looked at it, and finally she almost couldn't hold the jade slip in her hand.
"Woo woo, master, you must save Ren'er! How can I live without him!" After Wang finished reading the jade slip, he knelt in front of Lin Xiao and cried.
Lin Xiao was already a little upset, but when he heard Wang's cry again, his mood became even more upset, and Ma shouted: "Cry, cry, cry, you know crying, what else will you do? ”
Wang was stunned at first by Lin Xiao's drink, and then let go of his voice and cried: "Master, he is your own flesh and blood!
"Don't bother me here, go down!" Lin Xiao frowned, waved his hand, and motioned for the Wang family to retreat first.
"Master, what should I do with Ke Ren'er?" The Wang family had stopped crying at this time, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and asked the topic of concern, knowing that his son was appointed as the heir of the next generation, which was related to his future status in the Lin family! This is also why in the past few years, the Wang family has been doting on his son.
Lin Xiao waved his hand impatiently and said, "These are not your responsibility, I will deal with Ren'er's affairs, you step down." ”
When Wang heard his master's answer, his heart that had been mentioned just now was lowered a little, and then he nodded and said, "The concubine has retired." ”
Lin Xiao looked at the departing figure of the Wang family, couldn't help sighing, and then asked with a wry smile at this Xue Bo, "Uncle Xue, what do you think of this matter?"
When Xue Bo saw Lin Xiao asking about himself, he hurriedly replied: "The master must have a fixed short, the old slave dares to assert." ”
"But it doesn't hurt to say it," Lin Xiao said lightly, at this time he had regained his usual majesty as the head of the family.
Seeing that Lin Xiao had returned to normal, Xue Bo's eyes flashed with appreciation, and he smiled and said: "I think the ghost should not want to fall out with our Lin family, otherwise he can make public the ugly affairs of his son, and he doesn't need to send his subordinates to send jade slips so much, I think it's still a bit tactful, but I don't know how the mysterious guest explains, that's the point." ”
After listening to Xue Bo's analysis, Lin Xiao asked Xue Bo with a verifying expression on his face, "Uncle Xue, what kind of cultivation do you say that mysterious young master will be?"
"It's hard to say, but the only thing that is certain is that this young man's cultivation is definitely ghostly, and he is not the one we provoked. Xue Bo replied lightly, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him, and he was always dull all the way.
"Is it higher than a ghost?, could it be that his cultivation has already been?" Lin Xiao was shocked when he heard Xue Bo's words, because he had already learned from Xue Bo's mouth about the true cultivation of ghosts, which was why Lin Xiao repeatedly warned his clansmen that if you cause trouble in Yama City, then life and death have nothing to do with the Lin family.
Xue Bo's face showed a hint of seriousness, and he nodded and said, "This possibility is very large, but the specifics are not clear." ”
"Then Uncle Xue, if you compare to the ghosts, who will be higher?" Lin Xiao suddenly asked.
Xue Bo didn't expect Lin Xiao to suddenly ask an irrelevant word, and he was used to that natural answer, and said casually: "Compared with him, I ......"
"Master, why do you care about this question?" Xue Bo reacted very quickly, and only after he leaked a few words did he react that this question was wrong, and the horse retracted, making Lin Xiao, who was listening attentively to the answer, prick up his ears, but after four words, the horse was silent, and when he raised his head, he saw Xue Bo smiling bitterly at himself.
When Lin Xiao saw Uncle Xue's wry smile, he hurriedly smiled and said, "Don't mind Uncle Xue, I'm just asking casually." ”
"The old man is serious, but I don't know what the master is going to do next?" Xue Bo saw Lin Xiao's somewhat unnatural appearance, and quickly changed the topic.
Lin Xiao smiled bitterly and said, "What else can I do, it seems that I have to go to the door myself this time, otherwise I won't be able to say anything." ”
When Xue Bo heard what Lin Xiao said, he frowned and persuaded: "Master, don't do it! If you go, who will handle the things in the family!"
"Let Lin Changqing deal with the things at home for a few days, I believe he should be fine. Lin Xiao replied lightly to Xue Bo's words.
Seeing that Lin Xiao had already made a decision, Xue Bo no longer persuaded Lin Xiao, and sighed slightly and said, "Since the master has made a decision, let the old slave accompany the master!"
When Lin Xiao heard what Xue Bo said, his face that was originally a little worried loosened, and his face showed a look of joy and said: "It would be great if Xue Bo could go with me, since Xue Bo wants to go with him, then we will leave later! It is better to deal with this matter as soon as possible, otherwise it will be very unfavorable for our Lin family to be put there." ”
Xue Bo nodded and said, "Everything is arranged by the master, and the old slave has no opinion." ”
In the middle of the night, two figures first floated into the void, one of them pointed in the direction, and then the space shook, and the figures of the two disappeared into thin air.
In Yama City, in the forbidden place of the city lord, in a pavilion, the ghost was quietly listening to the subordinates around him report the situation, and from time to time he said a few words, and someone specially recorded it.
"Has the news been delivered to the Lin family?" the ghost asked one of his subordinates behind him.
A man in armor standing behind the ghost bowed and said: "If you go back to your lordship, the news has already been sent to the Lin family, according to the news from the spies in Doomsday City, it seems that Lin Xiao, the head of the Lin family, is not in the Lin family, and it is Lin Changqing who is now presiding over the affairs of the Lin family." ”
"When did it happen?"
"It's been two days. ”
"It seems that this old guy's speed is really fast, and he can't wait for two days!" the ghost thought to himself.
"What is the situation of the two people in the special VIP room?" The ghost remembered Elder Lin and Lin Jianren who were arrested, since Lin Xiao was so anxious, it meant that these two people still had some effect.
