Chapter 342 - Respect the Missy
Chapter 342: Respect the Missy
Su Huiqing was not that nice to them.
Everyone looked at her deep, cold eyes and that chilly tone of hers. Their legs went numb, and a chill ran up their spines. “Missy, whoever dares to go against the Dugu Family is going against you. I will never let him off!”
“Yes, Missy. Don’t worry!”
Those people, who stood up earlier, felt their bones turn cold. All of them knelt down with a thud. “Big… Big… Missy, please spare us! We know our mistake!”
The sounds of kowtowing could be heard.
Su Huiqing pushed her hair away and narrowed her pitch-black eyes.
Without her usual casualness, her eyes were cold and harsh. Her voice was cold. “Remember, there’s no ‘next time’. Get lost.”
“Yes, yes, yes, thank you, Missy!” The group of people immediately stood up as if they had just received a new lease on life and ran out.
They were afraid that Su Huiqing would grab one of them and pinch him to death in the next second.
Although the elders of the Dugu Family were the most powerful, everyone knew that they could not afford to offend Su Huiqing!
“The specific situation…” Su Huiqing looked at the quiet room and walked towards Dugu Heng. Her expression didn’t relax much. The moment she saw Dugu Heng, her eyes turned even colder.
The first elder followed behind her and told her everything, including the Ye Family.
“That Ye Family elder said that the family head can’t go back to heaven.” The first elder looked at Dugu Heng, who was lying on the bed, and couldn’t help feeling sad.
“Butler, go to my courtyard and bring my silver needles over.” Su Huiqing had no expression on her face. She just glanced sideways at the butler.
Ever since Su Huiqing returned, the Dugu Family butler seemed to have found his backbone. Upon hearing her words, he ran over without stopping. The guards and others outside saw that he was no longer as arrogant as before. Instead, he bent down and stood aside respectfully and fearfully.
After they left, they looked up at each other in fear. Although Dugu Heng had lost his power, the Dugu Family still had Su Huiqing. With Su Huiqing around, who would dare to disrespect Butler Dugu?!
“Missy, don’t waste your energy.” Seeing Su Huiqing bring the silver needles over, the fifth elder finally raised his head and said in a bitter tone, “The best potion maker in the Ye Family has already come. Even they can’t do anything about it, not to mention…”
Upon hearing the fifth elder’s words, the first elder’s expression changed, and he glared at the fifth elder. The fifth elder didn’t know that the first elder knew Su Huiqing’s trump card. In terms of potion skills, the first elder felt that no one in the entire International Association could surpass Su Huiqing!
If even Su Huiqing couldn’t be treated, the first elder didn’t know who could cure Dugu Heng!
Although it was strange that the first elder was so eager to hint at the fifth elder, he listened to the first elder.
“Alright, you guys go out, too. I need silence.” Su Huiqing took a few needles and glanced sideways at them.
Upon hearing this, the elders hurried out.
The first elder then stopped the guard who was about to enter. “Missy is inside. No one can enter.”
The guard immediately stopped and cupped his hands towards the elders. “First Elder, someone from the Ye Family just came and said that their patriarch will be coming out of seclusion soon. He will personally visit you once he is out.”
“I understand. You may leave.” The first elder was momentarily stunned before waving his hand.
After they left, the fifth elder was shocked. “The Ye Family’s Old Master is here. This… I really didn’t expect this!”
“Our family head has always had a bad temper. Don’t you know who the Ye Family patriarch thinks he is?” The first elder glanced at him, his gaze unreadable.
“You… this…” The elders quickly came to a realization.
“The Dugu Family is currently in a precarious situation. Even the main family can’t hold themselves back. If Missy were to take over as the head of the family, why should we fear these?” The first elder glanced at them before sighing.
The first elder regretted it, but the fifth elder regretted it the most. He was in a trance. He had personally pushed Su Huiqing out!
“First Elder, it’s my fault.” The fifth elder’s eyes were closed, and his voice was hoarse. He wanted to cover his face and cry. “I pushed Missy out personally. I shouldn’t have thought that she came from Green City and looked down on her…
“I overestimated myself and thought too highly of myself. Now that I think about it—with Missy’s aura and arrogance, how could she be raised by an ordinary person! I was so arrogant that I thought no one could reject the Dugu Family, but Missy didn’t care about the Dugu Family at all.
“She really didn’t care about it. It’s funny that I thought she was up to no good. First Elder, it was all my fault. I harmed the Dugu Family!”
“Alright, what’s the point of saying it now?” The first elder glanced at him and shook his head. “Missy didn’t take the Dugu Family seriously in the first place. She has Apollo and Dugu Yusheng by her side. She even knows people from Unknown Island.
“If she wants to be the head of the Dugu Family, you wouldn’t be able to stop her if she revealed some trump cards.”
As they spoke, they saw those people—who had just left the palace—retreat with pale faces.
The fifth elder’s face changed. “Could it be them?”
