There were two main locations for the Hull family to handle their affairs. One was the headquarters of the Purple Emblem in the center of the Sacred City, and the other was the residence of the Hull family.
Mia and the 'young man' headed west. Of course, they weren't going to the headquarters, so they were definitely going to the residence of the Hull family.
Around sunset, they arrived at the outskirts of the residence.
Compared to the majestic Great Shrine, the residence of the Hull family was nothing special. It wasn't as magnificent as the palaces of the kings, nor was it as luxurious as the high officials' district. It was just a few ordinary houses scattered among the plain lawns.
There were many people coming and going here. Just from their clothes, one could tell that they were all important people that were rarely seen.
But these people were very quiet and polite. None of them made any noise.
The one who received Mia and the "young man" was an old man with a crippled leg. He obviously knew Mia. As he led them into a waiting room, he said in a low voice,
He led them into a waiting room and said in a low voice, "If you had come earlier, you might have been able to see the Great Master."
Mia knew he was joking. Even if they waited here early in the morning, they definitely wouldn't be able to see the Great Master. But the old man had good intentions, so she could only say modestly, "I didn't have the luck to see the Great Master."
After they entered the room, the disabled old man only poured a glass of water for Mia. If the others wanted to drink, they could do it themselves. He wouldn't serve them.
Putting the glass of water in Mia's hand, the disabled old man said lovingly, "You guys have done a great job this time. I heard that the Great Master was very happy when he heard about it. He even ate two more pieces of moss cake at noon … I watched you grow up. I know you have your own ideas, but you must be careful, Miss …"
At this moment, the door was pushed open. A young man walked in and said anxiously, "Old Tans, don't talk here. They're getting impatient. You should go quickly. If the Young Master gets angry, I won't be able to handle it."
The disabled old man hurriedly turned around and walked out. Mia sent him to the door. He seemed to notice that there were many people around, so he said in a low voice, "Wait here. If the Young Master summons you, someone will naturally come and get you. You must …"
The young man could not wait any longer. Before the disabled old man finished speaking, he pulled him out and said, "Hurry up. I'll be in trouble if you're late."
The disabled old man hurriedly left with him. Before he left, he whispered in Mia's ear, "The Young Master is wearing black today."
Mia did not seem to understand. She wanted to say something, but the disabled old man had already left.
In the room, other than the "young man", there were also a few soldiers who had performed meritorious deeds with him. At this moment, these soldiers did not even dare to sit down. On the battlefield, they had killed without blinking an eye, but here, they were like children who had done something wrong. They were trembling with fear, and their expressions were extremely nervous.
Every time someone opened the door, they would reflexively straighten their bodies. Fortunately, they were not sitting, otherwise, who knew how many times they would have stood up.
The "young man" wanted to go to Niyue's house to get his property back as soon as possible. After waiting for a long time, he couldn't help but feel a little anxious, but he also knew that it was useless to urge Miya. He could only wait, not knowing when the lady would be free or if she would remember them.
They waited for a. a few minutes later, Mie Master and Mi Ya, the time. Young man Moon. Ans. "Ans" Clan, Master of Family, Academy.
They waited for a long time, but no one came to summon them. Mie Master could not sit still. She went out a few times, but still did not get any news.
They had been waiting for half a day, but they were still not going to meet them. Not only was there no definite answer, but even if they were not going to meet them, they should at least be given a meal. Until now, they did not see anyone bring any food over. They were like forgotten people in this room.
The "young man" was anxious. He wanted to go out to find something to eat. Mie Master hurriedly stopped him, "7573, you can't walk around here. Just wait a little longer. There should be news soon."
7573 was the official number of the "young man" in the detachment. Originally, he was supposed to join the detachment after he finished his training. Now that he had made a great contribution, everything was brought forward.
As the two of them were talking, the door was suddenly pushed open, and a man with a sword scar on his forehead walked in. They all knew him; he was the commander of the detachment. He used to wear a military cap, and very few people could see this sword scar.
"How is it, sir?" Mie Master left the "young man" and asked nervously.
The chief commander sighed and shook his head, "He's gone."
Mie Master was stunned, "Wh, why?"
The chief commander looked up at her and frowned, "He's gone. There's no reason. Miss has her own reasons."
Mie Master was not satisfied, "But there has to be a reason."
The chief commander was silent for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "Xiao Mai is back!"
Miya was shocked and exclaimed: "When did this happen? So soon? "
The chief commander nodded, "It should be last night. Miss probably won't see the people you brought for a while. Your plan needs to be changed. Don't mention the evidence again, in case …"
At this moment, another person came in. He looked at Mie Master and said, "Chief commander, they have to leave."
The chief commander nodded and asked Mie Master to take the soldiers back to the base. He still had something to do at the headquarters.
The "young man" did not mind. The chief commander had brought the military medals with him, but he did not let Miss wear them for them. For him, as long as there was a medal, it was enough. But the other soldiers were not the same. They suddenly felt a little depressed, as if they had received a heavy blow.
Thinking about it, if it was Miss who personally wore the medal, how glorious would it be? The significance was many times more important than the medal itself!
Medals were common, but it was very rare for Miss to receive them personally.
The excitement and happiness along the way, the uneasiness of waiting for half a day, and now all the dreams had gone up in smoke. That kind of feeling of disappointment was unimaginable.
But so what if they were disappointed? These soldiers who had been bathed in blood and fierce battles could only helplessly walk out of the room with their heads down. They did not dare to show their disappointment on their faces. They did not even dare to make a loud noise when they walked.
When they parted ways with the chief commander, Mie Master suddenly thought of something and asked in a low voice, "Sir, is Miss wearing black today?"
The chief commander was stunned on the spot. Then he suppressed his voice and said in a very low voice, "Do you want to die? What nonsense are you talking about?"
Mie Master was obviously shocked by his expression. She opened her mouth but did not say anything.
The chief commander carefully looked around and warned in a very low voice, "No matter where you heard it from, forget it. Don't mention it again. Do you understand!?"
Mie Master nodded with a pale face. The chief commander looked at her sternly, then slightly eased up and said, "You go back to the base first. I will think of a solution here."
Since the chief commander had left, they could not stay here for long. Following the staff's guidance, they left the square on foot.
At the gate of the exit, they encountered a group of noisy people. Those who dared to make a ruckus here were definitely not ordinary people. It seemed that they had been causing a ruckus there for a while.
Mie Master only glanced at them, then prepared to take the 'young man' and the others to go around.
Who knew that the group of people would see them and immediately block their way.
In the crowd, a young man dressed in luxurious clothes looked at them with a smile. Beside him was a person, the investigator, Motiyou.
Mie Master's heart sank. Even the 'young man' could see that this person knew that they would come here today and was waiting to cause trouble here.
The 'young man' didn't know the identity of the young man. He thought to himself, 'Is he the leader of the seven generals?'
The two groups of people soon met. Mie Master had just bent down when he pointed at the 'young man' and said, "You are that Cesbia?"
The 'young man' looked at him and didn't say anything. He thought that Mie Master and the others had said that he was very powerful. His combat skill had reached the ninth level. If they really wanted to cause trouble, he probably wouldn't want to draw his sword. So he looked around, trying to find a convenient brick.
Motiyou suddenly seemed to be angry, "What are you looking for? Didn't you hear the young master asking you a question? "
Mie Master hurriedly came forward and bowed, "Young master, you are back, we …"
The young man glanced at her and said impatiently, "Shut up, did I ask you a question?"
Mie Master was very embarrassed, but she could only bite the bullet and said to the 'young man', "7573, this is the young master, you …"
At this time, to everyone's surprise, the young man suddenly raised his hand violently and slapped Mie Master's face. He scolded, "Bitch, didn't you hear that I told you to shut up!"
A bright red palm print suddenly appeared on Mie Master's white face. Her hand slightly trembled, and she bit her lips tightly.
The soldiers behind her clenched their fists tightly, but they could only lower their heads.
The young man snorted and looked at the 'young man' with a smile, "I heard that you have secretly learned our Hull family's Nine Emblem Diagram Steps, and it is said that you are very good at it. Since I am in a good mood today, why don't you dance for me? If I am happy to see you, maybe I will exempt you from the charge of theft."
The 'young man' looked at him coldly. No one knew what he was thinking.
Mordemi, who was standing next to the young man, sneered and said, "Did you hear that? It is your great fortune to be allowed to dance for the young master. Hurry up and dance! "
The others also followed, "Hurry up and dance. Let the young master be happy. Dance!"
"I told you to dance. Hurry up and dance!"
"Dance!"
A trace of hostility rose in the 'young man's' eyes. His right hand suddenly clenched into a fist.
