Longyi followed Ximen Nu into the study and sat opposite to him.
Ximen Nu fixed his gaze on Longyi's handsome face which was similar to his own. He didn't know how many fortuitous encounters he had experienced in these past two years to obtain today's achievements. A trace of gratification flashed in Ximen Nu's eyes. His son had finally grown up and matured. Those intelligence reports which were as tall as a person had described in detail every little detail of his outside life. Every time he read it, he would feel a bit more relaxed in his heart. Ximen Clan's important matter needed a helper. Moreover, Ximen Clan also needed a successor.
Ximen Nu muttered to himself for a while, then looking at Longyi who was reclining on the chair waiting for him to speak, he slowly said: "Tell me everything that happened in these past two years in detail."
Longyi shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "Father, your intelligence department is not to be trifled with. Don't you know my situation?"
"Smelly brat, no matter how powerful the intelligence department is, there will always be some places that are overlooked. For example, what happened in Huangmang Plain? Why do you have magic physique? And it seems you have more than one type. "Ximen Nu said while glaring at him.
"This, it's a long story. I won't be able to finish it even if I speak until tomorrow." Long Yi said.
"Tell me, why are you so long-winded?" Ximen Nu said.
"Father, I am thinking of you. If mother knows that you trapped your son in the study and didn't allow me to sleep, I'm afraid mother won't let you go to bed later." Longyi said with a mischievous smile.
"Smelly brat." Ximen Nu wanted to scold, but he couldn't help but laugh. His eyes flashed with a trace of affection, and he suddenly recalled the days when he was together with his father, the grandfather of Ximen Yu. At that time, he also didn't put his scowling father in his eyes, laughing and joking without proper manners.
"Father, you are quite handsome when you laugh. In the past, you must have charmed many girls. "Longyi said with a mischievous smile.
Ximen Nu's face flashed with a trace of complacency. He stood up and gave Longyi a violent kick, then scolded: "Smelly brat, what nonsense are you talking about? What nonsense are you talking about? Hurry up and tell me your story. "
Longyi touched his head, and a trace of warmth began to seep into his heart, making him feel the true warmth of a family. He didn't change the topic and briefly talked about some things that happened in these past two years. He talked about Huangmang Plain's Lost City and also talked about the grudges between Ice Palace and Raging Flame Villa. As for the improvement of his cultivation and the changes in his physique, he naturally didn't tell them the truth. Instead, he used the same excuse he used to fool the girls. He said that a mysterious person from Asia accepted him as a disciple. and taught him various techniques and changed his physique.
Although he was it, Longyi said it. Long of Tian Nu. Dragon. He talked until his mouth was dry and he drank several pots of tea.
"I truly didn't expect that you, Yu 'er, would have such a fortuitous encounter. It seems the heavens are helping my Ximen Clan. I am deeply gratified. "Ximen Nu patted the shoulder of Long Yi and said with a satisfied smile.
The eyes of Long Yi flashed, he naturally understood the meaning of Ximen Nu's' Heaven is helping my Ximen clan '. Merely, he was somewhat relieved in his heart. Long clan had been in charge of Violent Dragon Empire for more than five hundred years, and there was not much chaos. Although this generation's Emperor Long Zhan couldn't be called a wise monarch, but he could also be regarded as moderate. Under this kind of situation, wanting to overthrow Long clan's dynasty was not an ordinary difficulty. Long Zhan had not lost the people's support.
At this time, Ximen Huo stood up and began to pace in the room. After a few times, he stopped in front of Ximen Yu and said: "Yu 'er, presumably you have heard something. Long clan and our Ximen Clan are fighting openly and covertly."
"Yes, father, do you really plan to overthrow the Long dynasty and become the emperor yourself?" Longyi asked without any change in his expression.
"Humph, the Dragon Empire originally belonged to our Ximen Clan, but the despicable Long clan usurped the throne that belonged to our clan. Now, father is just taking back what belongs to us." Ximen Huo coldly snorted.
Long Yi was surprised and asked: "What's going on?"
Ximen Nu leaned to the side, and slowly said: "More than 500 years ago, the patriarch of Long clan and the patriarch of our Ximen clan rebelled against the emperor of that time. That generation's patriarch of Ximen clan had great talent and bold vision, and only used a short ten years to conquer the entire country. At that time, Long clan only followed behind our Ximen clan. However, our ancestor regarded the patriarch of Long clan as a good brother who went through trials and tribulations together, but never would he have thought that this good brother would plot against him. At that time, before our ancestor was about to ascend the throne, he suddenly died, and the patriarch of Long clan took advantage of our Ximen Clan's panic and took control of the entire army, seizing the empire that originally belonged to our Ximen Clan. Taking back the empire has always been the secret ancestral teaching of our Ximen Clan. "Ximen Huo lowered his voice and his eyes emitted blazing hatred.
Longyi was startled. He had never thought that there was actually such a relationship between Ximen Clan and Long clan.
"Father, but now is not the right time. The will of the people is the will of heaven. Although our Ximen Clan is powerful, if we can't obtain the will of the people, everything is just empty talk." Longyi said.
Ximen Nu looked at Longyi and laughed: "Yu 'er, you really are worthy of being my, Ximen Nu's son. You pointed out the crux of the problem with one prick. You are much better than your elder brother. Yes, although Long Zhan hasn't lost the will of the people, but when the continent is in chaos, father will pour some oil and add some firewood to the fire, creating some trouble. You should know that the common people in the chaos of war are very sensitive, so at the right time, they will definitely appear. "
"Besides, Long Zhan has already started to deal with our Ximen Clan. We basically have no other choice. If we don't rebel, we will definitely be bitten by that fox Long Zhan." Ximen Nu continued.
Longyi nodded his head. A mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, especially since the Ximen Clan and Long clan had that kind of relationship. It could be assumed that the ancestral teaching of Long clan was to eradicate the Ximen Clan first. After all, if there was a tiger beside them who could become the emperor at any time, no one would be able to sit steadily on the throne.
"Yu 'er, in a few days, father will give you an official position in the army. You should first train the subordinates you brought. All of them are experts. After training them, they will be transferred to the army as basic level commanders. As long as the army is in our hands, everything is possible." Ximen Nu said.
"Got it, father." Long Yi's expression was very strange. Leading the army? This was his origin. Using abnormal methods to control his subordinates was a very satisfying thing.
At this time, Ximen Nu waved his hand in the air, then Long Yi felt a slight fluctuation beside him, then a shadow slowly appeared in the study.
"Skynet No.1 pays respect to Patriarch, Young Master." The shadow was shrouded in a layer of black smoke and couldn't be seen clearly. Moreover, the voice was also erratic. It was neither a man nor a woman.
"No.1, assign Skynet No.2 and No.3 to Yu 'er. They are responsible for the intelligence that Yu' er wants." Ximen Nu commanded.
"No.1 obeys the order of Patriarch." The shadow complied and his figure began to dissipate until he disappeared.
Long Yi was endlessly surprised. The skill of Skynet No.1 was truly unfathomable. He was unexpectedly unable to trace his aura.
"Skynet is our Ximen Clan's underground intelligence organization. Only the patriarch and the successor of the patriarch have the right to know about it. Yu 'er, do you understand father's expectation towards you?" Ximen Huo lovingly looked at Longyi.
Longyi bitterly smiled and said: "Father, I have no interest in the position of patriarch." He came back because he was too bored. If Ximen Clan really overthrew Long clan, then wouldn't he become the emperor? He didn't want to do that.
Ximen Nu coldly snorted and scolded: "Useless thing. Could it be that you want father to pass the position of patriarch to your elder brother? Although your elder brother is talented and also scheming, but he still lacks the thing that a leader should have. That is domineering, domineering to look down on all living beings under the heavens."
Longyi rolled his eyes and suddenly said with a mischievous smile: "Father, I will be the successor for the time being. In any case, you won't step down for a while. When you step down, I guess your grandson should be old enough. At that time, wouldn't it be better to let your grandson inherit the position?"
Ximen Nu looked at Longyi and sighed. He was satisfied with everything about this son. The only thing he was dissatisfied with was that he wasn't enthusiastic about power. Instead, he yearned for a free and unfettered life.
"You brat, your elder brother is scheming for the position of patriarch, but you are dismissive of it. I really don't know what to say about you." Ximen Nu helplessly said.
"Father, you are in the prime of your life. It shouldn't be a big problem to let your great-grandson take over your position." Long Yi said.
"Less talkative. Tomorrow, the emperor will hold a banquet in the imperial palace. At that time, there will be many people present. Father will introduce them to you one by one." Ximen Nu said.
Longyi nodded his head and said: "I know. If there is nothing else, then I will go back to sleep first."
Ximen Nu waved his hand, then sitting beside the desk, he began to flip through some documents.
Longyi pushed open the door and went out. Bull, Xiao Yi and Li Qing were still waiting outside. Seeing him coming out, they revealed a happy expression.
"Boss, this brat Li Qing said that all the women of his Moxi clan are as beautiful as fairies. No wonder he doesn't like that little girl outside." Bull said while spitting saliva at Longyi.
Longyi used his sleeve to cover his face, then scolded with a smile: "You can't speak properly, and you actually dare to spout nonsense. You, this bull, what do you know about beauty? Moreover, why would Li Qing say such words?"
Bull scratched his head and said with a silly smile: "What I said is true. If you don't believe me, you can ask little sister Xiao Yi."
"I didn't hear it." Xiao Yi covered her mouth and laughed.
"How can you not hear it? I asked Li Qing whether he doesn't like that girl or not, and he nodded. I then asked Li Qing whether the women of his clan are very beautiful or not, and he nodded again. I then asked him whether he likes the women of his clan, and he didn't say anything. That means he tacitly agreed. Boss, this old Bull didn't make up a lie. "Bull said with saliva dripping down his mouth.
Longyi kicked Bull's buttocks and scolded with a smile: "Bull, when did you become so eloquent? Go back to sleep."
