Chapter 117 (1/2)

On the east side of the misty City, the dim lights pass through the dark streets, through the alleys, and finally open a door, go straight in, and disappear in the dark.

”How is chadi?” Under the lamplight, a tall figure was reading a scroll of ancient scrolls. Suddenly, a dark shadow appeared outside the window, so he asked without raising his head.

The shadow respectfully came to him, then nodded and said, ”my subordinates have found out the movements of the two men.”

”Then tell me.”

The tall voice in the light raised his face, and in the dim candlelight, a little showed the blue armor in his clothes.

When the shadow heard the speech, he rushed to report: ”it was two people who reported that the third young master was injured in the tavern. These two people should be from outside the city.”

”Outside the city?” The man, known as the eldest young master, showed a little surprised expression, and then said to the shadow, ”I remember that the second one is not working at the gate of the city recently? Does he have any impression of them? ”

The shadow heard the speech and said to the young master, ”I'm going to invite the second young master to come here!”

...

in the west of the misty City, the atmosphere of Xiao's family is low to freezing point. Ji Lei is leaning against the edge of the window. Xiao Lingxue is a little coy. Her delicate hands are on her back, and Yucong can't help rubbing her cuffs.

”Since you won't let your grandfather tell me, it's up to you to tell me.” Ji Lei looks out of the window, deliberately does not have eye contact with Xiao Lingxue. Xiao Lingxue looks a little flustered, and her pretty face is full of reluctance. She doesn't seem to want to tell Ji Lei the exact reason. However, after Xiao Ling Xue's silence for a long time, Ji Lei can't restrain her impatience. She turns her head and asks Xiao Lingxue, ”are you so unwilling to tell me about these things? Are you willing to be traded by the Xiao family? ”

”It's not a deal!” Xiao Lingxue tried her best to refute, but in the end, even her own strength had become soft.

Ji Lei snorted coldly, but didn't do much entanglement again. She just told Xiao Ling Xue, ”you just need to tell me who you are going to marry, and tell me the cause and effect of the matter. After I know it, I will go immediately.” Xiao Ling Xue lowered her head. It seemed that she was struggling with whether to tell Ji Lei the reason. After a long conflict of ideas, she finally raised her head. After taking a deep breath, she gently opened her red lips and said to Ji Lei, ”the four big families in the misty city originally grew up with Xiao's family.

however, due to the fewer and fewer powerful members of the Xiao family in recent years, Ji Lei listens silently and waits for Xiao Lingxue to go on.

Xiao Lingxue takes a look at Ji Lei, and then says, ”every four years, there is a national 100 ethnic Assembly held in the city of misty fog. Even if it is not the family of the imperial capital, you can come to attend it. If the younger generation of the family can defeat the people of the four big families, they can take their place.”

”And the rule?” Jilei frowned, then thought of something, said: ”by the way, the Wen family of the four families, is it Wen Tingting's family?”
