In her opinion, if this thing was really a token, then the person who got it would have the power to kill the entire Gan family.
When she returned to the Gong family, she did not become the head of the family just because of the Gong family's tradition.
She became the real head of the family through her hard work.
But this was other people's business, and she was not in a position to interfere.
Watching the old master carefully put away the thing, Long Tianhao asked, "What do you think now?"
With such a thing happening, the Gan family would only be able to turn the tables if they had a faction more powerful than the Sheng family.
But in this way, the Gan family would have to pay a greater price.
They might become a vassal of some big family and become a puppet.
This was what the old master and the second master of the Gan family did not want to see.
Therefore, they had a bolder idea.
Old Master Gan raised his head and looked at Long Tianhao with pleading eyes.
"My young friend Murong, I know that the Gan family is nothing in your eyes. But as the head of the family, I have to give these children a way out even if I have to risk my life. So, can you help us? "
The old master was asking for help shamelessly.
To be honest, the Gan family did not have a good relationship with Murong Xi.
Since that was the case, there was no need for her to get into trouble.
Therefore, he was prepared to be rejected.
The second master of the Gan family was not calm either.
He had always been more extreme than his elder brother. Before Murong Xi came, he had proposed to trade the ice bed with Murong Xi, but was rejected by his elder brother.
Now he understood that even if Murong Xi wanted to use it to cure the disease, the Gan family was in danger.
They had long lost the chance to negotiate with Murong Xi on equal footing.
He clenched his fists secretly. For the first time, he felt that what he did was too thoughtless.
Although his elder brother did not acknowledge Yu Hua, he did not hold any grudges against him all these years. He even handed over the Gan family to him.
Compared to his elder brother, he was not qualified to be a leader.
Thinking of this, the second master of the Gan family got up and suddenly knelt down in front of Long Tianhao.
"Second Master, what are you doing?"
Long Tianhao raised his eyebrows, but he didn't sound frightened. He just moved aside a little to let Second Elder Gan kneel in front of his wife.
"Your Highness, I was the one who did the wrong thing. If you don't want to help the Gan Clan because of me, then please vent all your dissatisfaction on me. The entire Gan Clan will definitely be grateful for your kindness! "
The Old Patriarch wanted to say something but hesitated. However, in the end, he only sighed and did not interfere in this matter.
Long Tianhao pretended to look back inadvertently and looked at his wife's face.
Seeing that the other party didn't reveal any other emotions other than a little surprise, he decided to put this matter aside for now.
After all, the person Second Master had offended was her. Whether it was revenge or punishment, it was up to his Madam to decide.
"I won't take my anger out on the Gan Clan for the grudge between us. It's just that the Sheng family invited us to their wedding this time, so I'm afraid they already counted us as one. "
Long Tianhao said with a relaxed look.
In the blink of an eye, the Gan family's home.
A look of surprise appeared on the Lord's face.
"My young friend, do you mean that you are willing to help us?"
Long Tianhao shook his head and said bluntly, "I can't help you before I figure out the Sheng family's plan. It's just that we have the same enemy. It's much better to have more helpers than to fight alone. "
"Yes, yes, yes! My young friend, you are right! At that time, we can take care of each other in the Sheng family. "
The Old Patriarch of the Gan Clan quickly agreed, for fear that the other party would go back on his words.
After that, Long Tianhao focused on understanding the situation of the Sheng family.
After knowing that they were the oldest and most conservative family in the Upper Flux Clan, Lin Mengya tapped Long Tianhao's shoulder with her finger and let him ask some questions that she was concerned about.
The first one was whether the Sheng family had abandoned any divination people.
The Old Patriarch of the Gan Clan pondered for a moment and then said with a frown, "The Sheng family rarely intermarried with outsiders, so there are not many people in the clan. If they really have divination people, I don't think they will let them wander outside. After all, even if one of the parents is an outsider, as long as the child is adopted from an early age, no one will know the origin of the child. "
The Old Patriarch's words made Lin Mengya fall into deep thought.
What he said made sense.
Because of the restrictions of the conditions and rules of the aboriginals, they could only intermarry with the aboriginals.
But there was always an exception to everything.
Moreover, Master Huo had said that his parents could still meet.
At least in private, the rules were not as strict as they were now.
"However, the Elders Guild is not the same as it was in the past."
The Old Patriarch of the Gan Clan sighed and said, "Although I'm old, I feel that the people in the Elders Guild are crazy. Some time ago, I even heard that some of them wanted to accept those divination people again. But the condition is that they have to atone for their sins. Alas, they don't know that the people in the Elders Guild don't have good intentions at all. "
Lin Mengya knocked on Long Tianhao's head, and the latter immediately asked.
"How did you know, Patriarch Gan?"
"In any case, I have been dealing with them for decades. How could I not know what they are planning? At that time, everyone thought that the Elders Guild was declining, and many families even took the opportunity to leave the jurisdiction of the aboriginals. But every few years, a few of those families would disappear inexplicably. Moreover, do you know why the Elders Guild can control most of the families now? "
Long Tianhao thought for a while.
"I heard that the aboriginals have been short of resources in recent years. Could it be that most of the resources are in the hands of the Elders Guild?"
The Old Patriarch of the Gan Clan sighed.
"Not only that, but they also have a group of indestructible and elusive magic soldiers. If the Elders Guild thinks that the family should be eliminated, these magic soldiers will appear and annihilate the entire family, leaving no one alive. "
Just the mention of that scene made the Old Patriarch of the Gan Clan tremble violently.
The most terrifying thing in this world was not a vigorous struggle, but a silent disappearance, not even leaving behind a single clue, as if those living people had never appeared in the first place.
No one knew when those magic soldiers appeared. They only knew that wherever they appeared, everything would return to silence.
From then on, those who disappeared became a taboo in the entire aboriginals.
No one dared to talk about it, let alone investigate it.
Under the threat of the magic soldiers, the power of the Elders Guild increased day by day.
If they didn't want to disappear and become the next symbol that didn't exist, they had to do as the Elders Guild said.
Lin Mengya could feel the fear of the Old Patriarch.
At the same time, she couldn't help but worry.
Although she didn't hint at Long Tianhao this time, the latter understood what she was worried about.
"Even if the Elders Guild has such a killing weapon, what does it have to do with people?"
The Old Patriarch's eyelids twitched and he lowered his voice.
"Such a group of monsters can't just appear out of thin air, right? Those people of the Upper Flux Clan have always valued the members of the clan, so it's impossible for them to find so many people. The first time I heard about the magic soldiers was after a few of the clans that had separated from the aboriginals disappeared. "
After saying this, the Old Patriarch of the Gan Clan shut his mouth.
But his hint was obvious enough.
In other words, those people who were used as killing tools were most likely the members of the clans that had disappeared.
Moreover, the Elders Guild's biggest supporter and beneficiary was the Upper Flux Clan.
But they didn't encourage marriage with other clans, and they didn't communicate with the outside world.
If that was the case, then where did the resources in their hands come from?
The truth was dyed with a layer of scarlet shadow.
After returning from the meeting with the Old Patriarch of the Gan Clan, Lin Mengya had been worried.
Looking at her, Long Tianhao couldn't help but pull her into his arms.
"I know you're worried about those people, but Huo Xiao isn't a fool. He should have already guessed that there's something fishy about it."
Before they came to the Gan Clan, Huo Xiao had sent someone to pass a message.
He only said to make them feel at ease.
In other words, he held a negative attitude towards the Elders Guild's recruitment.
However, this concerned the large group of people.
Even if he was the leader, he couldn't ignore the opinions of the majority.
If the people's hearts were not stable, they wouldn't be able to do anything.
Huo Xiao needed time.
"It's not just them, I'm also worried about the Li Clan. Li Ao's parents and uncles, could they be in danger? "
Although she was fully prepared, Lin Mengya didn't expect the aboriginals to have so many secrets.
She wasn't afraid, but she was afraid that her inadequacies would implicate others.
But Long Tianhao kissed her forehead.
"Silly girl, what are you thinking about? Even if the Elders Guild is unhappy with the Li Clan, the Li Clan isn't in their way. "
"Hmm?" She blinked.
Long Tianhao loved her naivety, which was rare.
"If the Elders Guild really wanted to get rid of the Li Clan, they wouldn't let the Gan Clan do it. Moreover, we're cooperating with the Gan Clan now. "
"So you're saying that the Gan Clan should lie for the Li Clan?"
He poked her little nose.
"That's just one of the reasons. Another reason is that the Gan Clan has offended the Sheng Clan. But why do you think the Elders Guild didn't respond when the Sheng Clan sent us an invitation?"
Lin Mengya wasn't stupid.
Soon, her eyes lit up.
"This means that the Elders Guild hasn't reached a consensus on how to deal with the Gan Clan!"
"Of course, the Gan Clan has accidentally helped the Gan Clan's arch-enemy a great deal. If that's the case, the Sheng Clan can only find another way to deal with the Gan Clan. "
