The Councilors Visit
"What is Cousin saying? This is all what a younger brother should do." Pu Shu also smiled.
"Rest assured, Cousin. I've already made the arrangents. Today, I'll host a welco banquet to wash away the dust of your journey, guaranteeing to arrange it so comfortably for you..."
Chen Ling naturally understood what his "arrangents" ant. The smile on his face grew even brighter. He familiarly placed his arm around Pu Shu's shoulder, acting increasingly intimate and inseparable.
"By the way, you just ntioned asking to stand up for you... What happened?"
Speaking of this, Pu Shu's expression beca sowhat gloomy.
He didn't answer imdiately, but as if recalling so painful mories, his gaze drifted out the window, and his voice beca fleeting:
"Cousin... As you know, during those five years of being expelled from the family, I didn't have a good life..."
"In the Aurora Domain, we attached ourselves under a rchant, throwing away our dignity and struggling to survive, just to carve out a future for our bloodline... At that ti, the one I hated the most was Yan Shang, that self-righteous beast. And the other was the enemy who ruined all five years of my painstaking efforts..."
"I originally thought that after leaving the Aurora Domain, I would never see him again. But do you know? Heaven has given another chance..."
"That enemy is now in the Pu Family."
Hearing this, Chen Ling felt sowhat doubtful.
Shouldn't your greatest enemy be ??
Besides you, the rest of your bloodline should have been wiped out by . Not even a dog was left alive in the entire Stars Chamber of Comrce...
Yet here I am calling you brother, so who is this enemy he's talking about?
"Rest assured." Chen Ling spoke calmly. "Your enemy is Big Brother's enemy."
Receiving this answer, Pu Shu imdiately felt relieved, and the gloom on his face was completely swept away.
"Thank you, Cousin!"
The car slowly pulled up to the entrance of the Pu Family estate.
As soon as Chen Ling and Pu Shu got out of the car, the latter let out an astonished "Huh":
"It's Councilor Tong and Councilor Sun's cars... What are they doing at the Pu Family?"
Chen Ling looked in that direction and saw two cars with special license plates parked at the entrance. The cars were empty, but there were many figures in black uniforms guarding the surroundings.
Councilors?
Are they two of the six Councilors from the South Sea Domain?
A trace of doubt flashed through Chen Ling's mind, but he turned around and followed Pu Shu into the Pu Family.
"Ah Shu, are you very familiar with these two Councilors?" Chen Ling asked casually.
"Not really. We just t once when I attended a governnt banquet a while ago." Pu Shu pondered before speaking, "Many people from our Pu Family work in the political arena, so we have so interactions with these Councilors. If it weren't for the Lord of the South Sea expressly stipulating that mbers of Divine Path organizations cannot participate in the Alliance Council, I'm afraid four out of the six Councilors in the South Sea would have to be our people."
Chen Ling nodded slightly.
The two walked through the courtyard corridors of the Pu Family. The layout here matched what Chen Ling rembered. Just as he was slowly reconstructing the layout of the entire Pu Family in his mind, a burst of noise ca from afar.
"What do you an he temporarily went out?"
"Pu Chunshu, do you think the judgnt of the Alliance Council is child's play?"
Chen Ling's gaze turned towards the direction of the voices. Imdiately after, Pu Shu beside him let out a soft "Huh":
"Isn't that direction..."
Following that, Pu Shu seed to guess sothing, and a smile curled up at the corners of his mouth.
"Looks like there's a good show to watch... Cousin, let's go join the fun too."
After the two got closer to that direction, Chen Ling could clearly see the situation there.
He saw two figures standing at the door of an unoccupied wing room, pointing ahead and questioning sothing. Their tone was full of anger and severity. The surrounding Pu Family mbers all stood cautiously to the side, with only one youth facing the two sowhat helplessly.
"Councilor Tong, Councilor Sun... Our Pu Family isn't a prison. We don't have that many people to monitor his whereabouts. But you two can rest assured, he cannot leave the Pu Family..." Pu Chunshu explained patiently.
"Since the Pu Family took the initiative to shoulder the task of imprisoning him, you must do things according to the regulations. The person is missing now; that is your dereliction of duty!"
"That's right. The dignified Pu Family, a lineage of the Path of the Scholar God, can't even keep an eye on a prisoner in your own ho?"
Pu Chunshu still wanted to say sothing, but a forceful female voice ca from the side.
"I'm the one who took him away. What about it?!"
Everyone turned their heads and saw Pu Xiachan, with her hands on her hips, walking nacingly towards the two Councilors.
"I've encountered a bottleneck recently, so I thought of finding soone to be my sparring partner. The people in the Pu Family are all from the Path of the Scholar God and can't take a beating. I saw that his strength wasn't bad, and he has thick skin and tough flesh, so I dragged him away to be my punching bag... The person is locked up in our Pu Family. What's wrong with teaching him a lesson??"
Chen Ling wasn't surprised to see Pu Xiachan in the Pu Family, but when he saw the black-clothed figure behind the young girl, a faint light flashed in his eyes.
It really is him...
But how could he be in the Pu Family?
When Pu Shu ntioned his enemy earlier, Chen Ling had guessed it was Han ng. But he originally thought Han ng would be in the Tianshu Domain; he didn't expect to run into him in the Pu Family.
"Cousin, that's the enemy I was talking about." Pu Shu snorted coldly. "He offended the higher-ups of the Human Domains, and now he happens to be escorted to our Pu Family for imprisonnt... Tell , isn't this a godsend opportunity?"
Chen Ling looked at Han ng in the distance, his eyes narrowing slightly.
It seed that after passing Judgnt on the Alliance Council, Han ng was still punished. But thinking about it, it made sense. He had exposed the dark secrets of those Councilors; it would be strange if the matter could just pass like that...
"Are those two here specifically to find trouble with your enemy?" Chen Ling asked suddenly.
"Usually, when Councilors visit, they need to give advance notice. The fact that they ca without notice this ti ans they definitely want to make things difficult for him. After all, it's rare for this Han ng to fall into their jurisdiction. If they don't vent their anger, they probably wouldn't be satisfied." Pu Shu raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"Could it be that we brothers don't even need to take action this ti, and Han ng is already dood?"
On the other side.
Pu Xiachan was, after all, a possessor of the Heaven-Reaching Star Position. With the blessing of destiny, she was a seed for the future of the Human Domains. Although she couldn't compare to the Nine Monarchs and those few Rank 8 top-tier combat forces, her strategic position in the Domain was also very high... Right now, in the entire Pu Family, besides the Ancestor and the Head of the Family, she had the strongest say, and she wasn't the least bit cowardly when throwing a tantrum at the Councilors.
Seeing Pu Xiachan acting like a dead pig unafraid of boiling water, the two Councilors spoke coldly:
"You used him as a sparring partner? Then why doesn't he have a single injury on him?"
"He's too strong, I couldn't beat him. So what??"
"..."
Councilor Tong couldn't be bothered to entangle with her and directly looked at Han ng.
"Han ng, during your imprisonnt, you ignored the regulations and went out without permission. It seems you are still stubbornly unrepentant... When we go back this ti, we will propose again to extend your imprisonnt ti and re-transfer you to be escorted to the Spirit Void Domain."
