Chapter 238 Tianbei City Han Family
As soon as the demon snake Xia Mang died, the poisonous snakes that had gathered suddenly lost their backbone and fled in all directions.
After the disaster, the guards of the Han family were still gathered together, and they were a little unable to react.
Then the Dou Huang is gone?
"Miss."
"sister."
As soon as he landed, Han Yue saw steward Han Chong and sister Han Xue rushing towards him.
She looked at the two of them and said, "Is there nothing wrong with you?"
"The eldest lady arrived in time. My subordinate was slightly injured and will be fine."
The middle-aged man shook his head and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand. It looked like nothing serious.
"Sister, who is that person?"
Han Xue hugged her sister's arm and whispered in her ear while looking at Lin Xiu.
"My former junior at Canaan College, but he has become an elder long ago. Don't think blindly. I have no special relationship with him."
Seeing Han Xue's doubts, Han Yue emphasized.
"Sister, how can you not be tempted by such a good boy?"
Han Xue didn't quite believe it.
Being so young and so strong, he is definitely popular even in Zhongzhou.
My sister just has a cold personality, and there is nothing wrong with her in any other way.
"One slap won't make a difference, do you understand?"
Han Yue poked her forehead with her finger, and when she saw Lin Xiu coming this way, she secretly gave Han Xue a warning look.
However.
When Lin Xiuzhen came over, Han Xue blurted out a thank you to her brother-in-law, which made Han Yue blush.
"Xue'er is more naughty."
Han Yue looked at her sister's running back and whispered.
"Um."
Lin Xiu looked around with a smile on his face, "The convoy was not affected at all. Can it return to Tianbei City?"
"Okay, but it will take a little long. Traveling with the convoy, it may take five or six days."
When it came to the journey, Han Yue recalled that Lin Xiu had passed by on the way, and she couldn't help but look shocked.
The journey of five or six days would take two or three days, even if you use Dou Qi to transform into wings to fly.
But Lin Xiu only spent less than half an hour.
"It takes so long?"
Lin Xiu frowned.
"Junior, are you in a hurry?"
Han Yue looked at him and remembered the question she asked before, but he hadn't answered her yet.
Why did the junior come to Tianbei City suddenly?
"I want to go to Burning Flame Valley. It would be better if I can go earlier."
Lin Xiu replied.
"Then you don't have to worry."
Han Yue breathed a sigh of relief when she heard what he said. Seeing Lin Xiu's puzzled look, she explained with a smile, "The Tianbeicheng space wormhole is under maintenance these days and will not be activated for a short time."
"Does maintenance generally take a long time?"
Lin Xiu asked if it took a few months, he could only change to another city.
"Junior, you don't need to worry. Our Han family is one of the two major forces in Tianbei City. It is easy to arrange for a person to enter the space wormhole."
Han Yue looked at him with eyes full of expectation.
"Then I'll trouble you, senior sister."
Lin Xiu agreed.
Afterwards, the group followed the convoy and headed back to Tianbei City.
There was no trouble along the way.
On the third day, however, Han Lin led his men to join the convoy.
He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Han Yue and Han Xue were safe and sound.
On the way back to Tianbeicheng, Han Lin found Han Chong to inquire about the news, and learned that the demon snake Xia Mang was killed by Lin Xiu with one punch, and his face turned pale.
Seeing this scene, Han Chong felt strange. After questioning, he found out that he had provoked Lin Xiu before, grabbed his ear, and asked him to apologize to Lin Xiu in person.
Lin Xiu had done nothing in the past two days. Every time it was time for dinner, Han Chong would bring it himself. He had a good impression of this middle-aged man.
Therefore, he made no request and accepted the young man's apology.
Three more days passed in the blink of an eye, and the convoy was getting closer and closer to Tianbei City.
"Stop."
There were shouts on the roadside, and a group of people rushed out, led by two old men in light red robes, with a red badge hanging on their chests.
This is the logo of the Hong family.
"Come out, Miss Han Xue, we are here specifically for you."
An old man said calmly.
Another old man glanced at the convoy and frowned suddenly, "Strange..."
Why are these people not afraid at all? Is there a fraud here?
Impossible. The news made it very clear that no other members of the Han family were dispatched, except for the eldest lady.
Although Han Yue was a Dou Huang, it would not be difficult for the two four-star Dou Huangs to take her down if she and Hong Lie teamed up.
In the carriage.
Lin Xiu leaned against the car window and opened his eyes after hearing the sound, "Senior, are you an enemy?"
The Han family and the Hong family have always had a competitive relationship. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are enemies.
Han Yue nodded slightly.
The next second, a wave of heat surged through the carriage, followed by exclamations outside.
"Just keep walking."
Lin Xiu closed his eyes again.
Seeing this, Han Yue gave her sister a look. The latter walked out of the carriage and found the guards of the Han family with frightened faces as if they had seen a ghost.
"what happens?"
She walked to Han Chong, frowned and asked, and after scanning the surroundings, she showed some doubts.
I clearly heard the Hong family talking just now, but why didn't I see anyone?
"Second Miss, Hong, the two elders of the Hong family, Hong Lie and Hong Mu, died. They turned into ashes as soon as the flames enveloped them."
Han Chong replied tremblingly. The two fighting emperors couldn't even utter a scream and just disappeared.
That was Dou Huang. There were only a few in the entire Han family, and they were just gone.
"hiss……"
Hearing this, Han Xue felt goosebumps all over her body, and she rubbed her hands.
Is this the true strength of Brother Lin Xiu?
He just opened his eyes and asked, two Dou Huangs, and the rest of the Hong family is gone?
Coming back to her senses, she immediately said: "Uncle Han, let the convoy set off immediately, and tell everyone else to keep their mouths shut, and pretend that they didn't see anything that happened just now, understand?"
Han Chong nodded repeatedly. In this ghost place, Dou Huang can evaporate, and he, a Dou Ling peak, doesn't want to stay any longer.
Back in the car, Han Xue faced her sister's gaze, shook her head slightly, and signaled with her eyes to go back and talk.
Not long after, voices rang around one after another.
Lin Xiu lifted the car curtain and saw the city head characters he had seen before, and people came and went in the doorway.
"Lin Xiu, come and stay at my house. I'll take care of the space wormhole. I'll accompany you around the city these two days."
Han Yue made an invitation.
"Okay."
Lin Xiu agreed.
The convoy drove all the way to the southern part of Tianbei City.
"The Hong family is here?"
Soon after, Han Lin's surprised voice sounded outside the carriage.
Hearing this, the Han Yue sisters walked out of the carriage, and Lin Xiu followed them.
At the gate of a luxurious courtyard, there were two carriages with red badges on them.
"What are the Hong family doing here?"
Han Xue frowned. The two families had been in a turmoil recently. Before, outside the city, the Hong family sent people to arrest her.
How dare they come to the door? !
"Xue'er, slow down."
Han Yue shouted at her back, and seeing no response, she made a helpless gesture towards Lin Xiu.
She said, "Junior, I'll take you to your residence first."
"Okay."
Lin Xiu nodded slightly, followed Han Yue out of the car, and walked to the back of the Han family compound.
Along the way, a servant saw the eldest lady leading a strange man, and the fire of gossip in his eyes was burning.
Han Yue picked a quiet courtyard for Lin Xiu. The two of them sat down in the pavilion in the courtyard. Servants came in and out, changing things in the room.
