Originally with Wang Xiaoya inside, Long Yu’er didn’t feel embarrassed.
However, Wang Xiaoya suddenly stood up, saying she was going to soak in the hot spring, leaving Long Yu’er and Long Fei alone in the room.
Long Yu’er felt uneasy inside, not knowing how Long Fei would tornt her.
She had been serving tea all day, and her arms were starting to ache.
Long Fei saw her standing still and instructed, "Haven’t you asked others how to be a good maid before?"
Long Yu’er felt wronged and her eyes imdiately reddened, "I agreed to be your maid, but I didn’t allow you to bully . I’m already like this, what more do you want?"
As she spoke, she felt even more aggrieved and cried even harder.
Long Fei raised his eyebrows, surprised at how fragile this girl’s mind was.
He sat listening to her cry for a while, and once she cald down, he said helplessly, "I just wanted you to pour so tea, was it necessary to act like this?"
"You should have said it earlier! If you don’t tell , how do I know what you want to do!"
Long Yu’er sniffed and went to pick up the teapot, filling his cup with tea.
Long Fei smiled and said, "Did the Long Clan Leader send you to humble yourself here?"
Long Yu’er’s hand shook briefly, quickly denying, "I ca on my own, I’m a person of integrity, I won’t play tricks on you!"
Long Fei drank his tea, gesturing for her to sit down, "Alright, a person of integrity, let’s have so clear talk today!"
Long Yu’er furrowed her brows, staring at him curiously, "What clear talk?"
Long Fei said calmly, "I know what your Long Family wants to find out. It’s just about my background to see if there’s any threat to your Long Family’s interest."
Long Yu’er remained silent, implicitly agreeing.
Long Fei then revealed a shocking truth, "To be honest, I have a bit of a connection with your Long Family."
Long Yu’er’s brow twitched, surprised and staring at Long Fei.
Long Fei asked her, "Does your Long family’s ancestors have a person nad Long Zhen?"
Long Yu’er’s head spun, teeth chattering, "Yes, are you a descendant of Long Zhen?"
Long Fei replied calmly, "That’s right."
Long Yu’er grasped her hand briefly, unsure what to say.
Long Fei asked, "Tell then, what is the status of my ancestor in your current Long Family? Traitor or criminal?"
Long Yu’er’s face flushed, "Are you here to avenge him?"
Long Fei said, "Just answer the question."
Long Yu’er felt the pressure from his aura increase, making her feel cold and heavy all over.
She honestly said, "I don’t know much about Long Zhen, oh, Long Zhen the ancestor. He was a person from the Sky Empire era; it seems he committed so error and was expelled from the Long Family."
Long Fei asked, "What’s this Sky Empire about?"
Long Yu’er said, "It was the dynasty before the Great Tang Empire. It was too warlike, annexing other tribes everywhere, and only lasted two generations before it fell."
"Understood."
Long Fei knew she wasn’t inford about the internal details, so he didn’t inquire further, rely instructing her, "Be a good maid here for a month and I won’t bother with any information you wish to pass on. If you perform well, I’ll return your magical weapons to you after a month."
Long Yu’er’s face was full of surprise, "Don’t you have anything else to ask ?"
Long Fei chuckled softly, "You don’t know anything, what should I ask?"
Long Yu’er lowered her head murmuring, "That’s true."
Suddenly she lifted her head, realizing, "So, then we’re of the sa bloodline?"
"More or less."
Long Fei nodded.
Long Yu’er stared at him for a mont, feeling an unexpected closeness to him for so reason.
Long Fei stood up, instructing, "Clean this place and the bedroom, I’m going to soak in the bath and then take a nap."
He stretched lazily, leaving with a mischievous smile at Long Yu’er.
Long Yu’er’s face was crimson, thinking, how could you soak with the lady without any discretion, ntioning it openly right in front of her?
She puffed her cheeks, tidied the table and chairs, and went into the bedroom, grumbling as she made the bed.
She wondered what this man actually ant? To reveal such an identity-related matter to her and even tell her to relay it back to the family?
This, sothing’s certainly wrong with his head.
She thought it over, only able to understand it this way.
All night, Long Fei was browsing books and notes about the Long Family.
These items were all stolen out by Bald Dog and others, so were unique copies, secret books that largely matched with the ancestral notes he previously obtained.
The secret technique of True Dragon Nine Transformations was ntioned in these books too.
That is to forge one’s physical body and primordial spirit into a True Dragon, transforming human form into dragon form.
Oriental people often say they’re descendants of dragons, from the feasibility of True Dragon Nine Transformations, perhaps really have blood ties with the Dragon Clan.
After all, the legendary King of Humans and Human Mother, Fu Xi and Nuwa, are both of scale-covered bodies.
In a genealogical handbook, Long Fei found a few brief records about his ancestor.
"With the fall of the Sky Empire, Dragon Clan assisted Tang King by destiny. Clan mber Long Zhen didn’t understand the mandate, intent on rebellion, therefore this lineage was expelled from Dragon Clan, exiled to Desolate Star Field, never to return."
Long Fei rubbed his head, staring at the words "mandate of heaven" again and again, feeling sothing’s amiss.
Whose mandate is this, which heaven, whose command?
The Dragon Clan, all night couldn’t sleep well.
After Long Yu’er relayed Long Fei’s lineage back, Dragon Clan Leader Long Dingkun gathered everyone at ho, solemnly informing them of this matter.
The crowd imdiately erupted in chaos, not expecting Long Fei to be a descendant of Long Zhen, and truly a clan mber of the Dragon Family.
Back then, those who advocated expelling Long Zhen from the Dragon Clan, the direct descendants slapped the chair back, angrily saying, "This person turns out to be a descendant of criminal blood, no wonder he cos back making things difficult for our Dragon Clan. I think he’s here to stand up for his ancestor, seeking revenge against us. We must not sit idly by, must proactively strike him."
Soone said, "I heard when changes occurred in the sky, the imperial fate in this part of the world altered accordingly. Dragon Clan assisted Tang King by destiny, hence today’s status. Long Zhen dared to defy the mandate, nearly bringing calamity upon Dragon Clan. Expelling him from the family was widely accepted. Even if this person has a great reason, we aren’t afraid of him coming to cause trouble."
The crowd discussed, feeling the matter was too significant.
This concerns a past secret, these descendants knew little about it.
The Dragon Clan Leader Long Dingkun only knew so fragnted information, the real secrets were only known to those elders in seclusion at the Dragon Clan Ancestral Land.
He instructed everyone, "This matter is significant, don’t panic, we must adapt to the situation without rash actions. This person ca alone seeking trouble, we’re not afraid of him temporarily. Until things are clear, no one should act impulsively to avoid leaving criticism."
The clan mbers nodded, saying no more.
Only Long Dingkun and a few clan elders discussed and then went together to the ancestral land overnight, to confer with the ancestor on this matter.
