Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family-Chapter 667: White Tiger Mountain and Golden Dragon Ridge, Dragon Seeker! (2)
The Purple Robed Elder continued to speak,
At his age, having spent so many years in the Cultivation World, he naturally had carried out many such deeds.
Or rather, it could be said that most cultivators who live to an old age possess some means.
“Hmm, just do as you said.”
Upon hearing this, the Zhao Family Ancestor pondered for a moment and then nodded, “At that time, I will take action myself.”
“Where is the girl?”
...
He continued, preparing to confirm the situation to ensure nothing goes wrong.
“Elder Ancestor, right this way, please.”
The Purple Robed Elder immediately spoke respectfully.
A moment later,
The two arrived at a damp and dark mine.
“Where is the person!? I asked you where is the person!?”
The Purple Robed Elder looked at the emotionally blank puppet Lu Ruyi in the mine, his face twisted with rage, loudly questioning two Zhao family juniors.
It was not only him;the Zhao Family Ancestor also had an extremely cold expression, his fists tightly clenched.
Once Lu Ruyi had discovered the Spirit Stone mine, there was only a dead end for her!
Even if she surrendered and married into their Zhao family, her future held only death!
But now, the person had disappeared, leaving only a puppet!?
“Elder Ancestor, Elder, we truly do not know what happened.”
The two Zhao family juniors, terrified, trembled and knelt to beg for mercy.
“How could you handle things like this? He, Lu Changsheng, a Talisman Master by origin, his children surely would possess life-saving talismans. Could it be that you did not even know to search the body and check thoroughly!?”
The Zhao Family Ancestor, looking at the Purple Robed Elder, spoke with a voice filled with murderous rage.
With such an incident occurring, once Lu Ruyi returned to Bihu Lake Mountain, their Zhao family would be in danger!
Had it not been for the fact that the man before him was his own brother, he would have wished to strike him down.
“Elder Ancestor, I have already seized the girl’s storage bag and checked her body. There absolutely were no magic artifacts, talismans, or treasures!”
The Purple Robed Elder hastily explained.
He then, with bloodshot eyes, continued to question the two Zhao family juniors about what happened.
The two Zhao family juniors also realized the gravity of the situation.
Finally, with grimaces on their faces, they truthfully confessed that since Lu Ruyi had been unwilling to submit, they had planned to apply some means to force her compliance.
Who could have expected that Lu Ruyi would suddenly emit a layer of white light from her body and then transform into a wooden puppet?
Faced with this situation, they also did not know what to do and were just discussing how to report this.
Then the Elder Ancestor and the elder arrived.
“Useless trash, you truly deserve to die!”
Upon hearing this, the Zhao Family Ancestor was so enraged that he directly kicked the two men.
The kick sent the two Zhao family juniors flying out, smashing hard against the mine’s stone wall and spitting blood.
Not only had the two caused such an issue,
But when a problem arose, they had not immediately reported it!
Had he not personally come over, by the time the news meandered its way back to their family from the mine, Lu Changsheng might have already reached their White Tiger Mountain.
By then, his family would surely be facing a dead end!
“Elder Ancestor, what do we do now?”
The Purple Robed Elder, also looking distressed, inquired, unsure of what to do.
“What to do? You still have the face to ask me what to do!?”

On hearing this, the Zhao Family Ancestor became angry again and kicked towards the Purple Robed Elder.
Pointing at the ground at the puppet he said, “This girl clearly escaped using a talisman. You couldn’t even manage this properly and you’ve messed everything up;why don’t you just go die!”
To be at such an age and still fail to properly search someone, allowing them to escape, it made the Zhao Family Ancestor tremble with rage.
The Purple Robed Elder tried to argue and insisted that he really had conducted a thorough search.
But at this moment, with the facts before his eyes, he knew that any explanation was pointless.
He immediately clenched his teeth and said, “Elder Ancestor, she must have left just a short while ago;why don’t you take me to Bihu Lake Mountain to ask for forgiveness.”
“Claiming that you did not know about this matter, that it had nothing to do with White Tiger Mountain, and that it was entirely my fault.”
The Purple Robed Elder thus spoke.
Knowing that only by doing this, could he potentially diminish the gravity of the situation.
“This issue is not as simple as you think;rumors from outside claimed that Lu Changsheng is famously easy-going, do you really think he is easy to provoke?”
“How did Bihu Lake Mountain come about, and what happened to the Yu Family in the end!?”
“This man has connections within Qingyun Sect;perhaps when the Yu Family colluded with the Demon Path, it was all Lu Changsheng’s deliberate scheme, utterly ruthless and thorough!”
“Now that Bihu Lake Mountain has three Foundation Establishment Cultivators and a Dao Companion from Qingyun Sect, with the family flourishing, just a couple more Foundation Establishment, and the family’s Spirit Land would no longer suffice. Given this chance, how could he let this go and make it small!”
As the Zhao Family Ancestor spoke more, the more enraged and fearful he became.
Never had he expected such a small matter to be bungled.
He couldn’t help but regret;had he known this would happen, he might as well have disclosed the Spirit Stone mine matter himself.
Given the current situation of Bihu Lake Mountain, his own family might have managed to gain some benefits.
“Elder Ancestor, then what should we do.”
The Purple Robed Elder, upon hearing this, spoke with a mournful expression.
He, of course, understood that from a son-in-law to his position today, Lu Changsheng’s dealings in the dark were certainly not simple.
Just establishing a family and acting as a family head, whether for himself or his family, he usually took great care of his reputation.
“In the early years, our White Tiger Mountain and Golden Dragon Ridge shared some fellowship;though the Spirit Stone mine is not large, if we present it, it might be possible to persuade Golden Dragon Ridge to step in and help.”
“After all, with Bihu Lake Mountain rising day by day, Golden Dragon Ridge would not want to see our family in trouble.”
The Zhao Family Ancestor said with an ugly expression.
Golden Dragon Ridge and White Tiger Mountain’s founding elders were sworn brothers.
Thus, the two families had always supported each other and had a very good relationship.
But a hundred years ago, for some unknown reason, there was a huge fallout between the elders of the two families, cutting off their relations and ever since, their relationship had cooled.
Unexpectedly, the elder of Golden Dragon Ridge broke through to a False Core!
