Chapter 4852: Cos Again
Hearing this, the middle-aged man on the seat of honor frowned even more. He stood up with his hands behind his back, paced a few steps in the hall, then ordered, “Go, ask the two guardians to go and bring her back!”
“Yes, sir!” The guards responded imdiately.
If the family’s revered elders went to arrest her, they would definitely be able to bring the woman back. After all, anyone who had beco a revered elder of a noble family must have exceptional abilities. For the other noble families in the city, this was nothing more than a trivial matter. They heard the news but didn’t give it much thought. Besides, it wasn’t them who had lost face, but the Wei family. Naturally, they treated the whole affair as nothing more than a show to watch.
As for the two guardians of the Wei family, when they heard the order from the Patriarch, they were displeased. They were guardians after all, with extraordinary abilities. If they were asked to deal with stronger opponents or handle more difficult matters, it would be understandable, but now they were being asked to go and catch a little girl? Even though they were dissatisfied, they didn’t dare say much. After all, the order ca from the Patriarch, and they were in the Wei family’s employ, so it was only right that they did as they were told.
So, the two followed the guards down the road, with one of them muttering, “She’s just a little girl. I didn’t think we’d have to deal with her ourselves.”
“Since it’s the Patriarch’s order, we’ll just do as we’re told,” the other man said as he walked slowly. “Let’s catch her and return early so we can report back.”
“Have you heard? The Great Emperor Northern Fla is dead and gone. Now, the Phoenix Sovereign has taken over. The news has already spread secretly, and I believe it won’t be long before everyone knows.” One of them whispered.
“I just heard about it this morning. So of the family heads already know, but it hasn’t spread outside yet,” the man replied. “Co to think of it, the Phoenix Sovereign has only been promoted for a short ti! The Great Emperor Northern Fla had been famous for a long ti and was so powerful. I never thought…” The man sighed and shook his head.
“You’re not the only one who didn’t expect it. No one could have imagined it! Not long ago, the Great Emperor Northern Fla ordered that all resources be cut off, and now this has happened. All the people from the various families are worried that the Phoenix Sovereign will settle the score in the autumn!”
The two whispered to each other until the person leading the way stopped.
“Two Guardians, we’ve heard that the person is inside this inn,” the guard said, taking a step back. He was still scared by the frying pan, and his face still hurt from being hit.
At this mont, Feng Jiu was taking a break in her room after her bath. She hadn’t had ti to rest while dealing with matters these past few days. Now that she had taken a bath, she was completely relaxed, and sleepiness was overwhelming her.
Cloud Devouring was crouching outside the room. It was a small, snow-white, and chubby creature, causing everyone going up and down the stairs to look involuntarily at the little pet in front of the innermost door. Song Mi’er was still busy in the kitchen, unaware that the Wei family had co looking for her again.
Upstairs, Cloud Devouring seed to sense sothing. It stood up, walked to the second-floor balcony, glanced at the front door, thought for a mont, and then walked downstairs.
At that mont, a young girl was pulling a middle-aged man toward the inn, complaining, “Second Uncle, if you hadn’t sent soone to grab and my brother earlier, I might have found out where that little pet was bought.”
