Heaven-devouring Dragon Emperor

Shangguan Bo groaned and looked at Shangguan Hong with a deep expression. The latter was also silent, his eyes sparkling, as if he was weighing something.

"Even if the Great Elder doesn't ask, I, my niece, have to make it clear to you."

Shangguan Tong smiled coldly, biting the word "niece" very hard, obviously it had a deep meaning.

The corners of Shangguantu's eyes twitched slightly, and then a sneer appeared on his face, not taking it seriously.

He was just secretly shocked, but also greatly puzzled, according to what the silver-robed old woman said, these people should have died in the barren mountains and fields long ago, why did they come back alive?

Could it be that the silver-robed old woman was lying to him?

However, there were only Shangguan Bo, Shangguan Tong and Shangguan Fei in front of him, but the sixth elder, Shangguanyu, and another junior, Shangguanchen, were missing. What happened?

Thoughts surged in his mind, and Shangguantu suddenly realized that what the silver-robed old woman said might not be false, or something else happened at that time.

Shangguan Tong said in a deep voice: "When we went to the mountain to collect medicine, we were attacked by strong men. Sixth Uncle and Brother Chen died to protect us...unfortunately!"

"What?" Shangguantu's face darkened, with a look of shock!

But he was nodding secretly in his heart, secretly thinking that this is the case.

What the silver-robed old woman said was indeed true, but according to her, all five people should have perished, so why are there still three alive?

"Who on earth dares to provoke my Shangguan family like this? Fifth, Tong'er, do you know their identities?"

Shangguantu sneered secretly in his heart, but pretended to be furious, with a murderous look on his face, and asked in a deep voice.

Shangguan Bo fell silent, Shangguan Tong looked directly at the elder, and said coldly: "On the surface they are just a group of villains, but in fact..."

"What's the actual situation?" Shangguan Tu's expression darkened.

"Actually, their origins are not a secret. It's just that the First Elder is so concerned. Does he want to avenge Fifth Elder and Brother Chen?"

Shangguan Tong asked with a sneer.

She really didn't have any good impression of this Great Elder, and even regarded him as an enemy.

It was this person who pushed her to marry the third son of the Jing family, and even put on the pretense of "putting the family's interests first", which Shangguan Hong could hardly refuse.

On the surface, it seems that he united with the Jing family to fight against the squeeze of the Chang family, it was indeed for the benefit of the family, and even many members of the clan praised him in private.

But in fact, anyone who understands the situation understands that the Great Elder's ambition is far more than that.

His real goal is to kick the current head of the family, Shangguanhong, from power, and control the power of the family alone!

"Revenge? Hehe, no matter who the other party is, daring to do this is a provocation to the entire family. When it comes to revenge, of course the Patriarch must arrange it."

Shangguantu shook his head and smiled, and with an understatement, he blocked Shangguantong's questioning.

With his sophisticated mind, how much effort would it take to deal with a little girl?

In the whole family, only the head of the family, Shangguan Hong, can wrestle with him, but if all goes well, it won't be long before Shangguan Hong even loses the qualification to wrestle with him.

"Hmph! It seems that the Great Elder still has my father as the head of the family in his eyes. It's rare, rare!"

Shangguan Tong's pretty face was frosty, and he said mockingly.

"Presumptuous! Even your father doesn't dare to talk to me like that. What qualifications does a mere little girl have?"

Shangguantu's face darkened, and he reprimanded sharply, without concealing the arrogance and domineering in his heart.

Everyone's face darkened, but they had to exercise restraint.

The Great Elder has a deep foundation, and he is also a half-step Xuantian Realm powerhouse. His cultivation base is comparable to that of Shangguanhong at his peak, and now he is the leader in the family, with top-notch strength!

But this is just like this, and it is not unshakable for the faction of the Patriarch.

What made everyone even more afraid was the silver-robed enshrinement beside him!

That person's identity is mysterious and his origin is unknown, but no matter his cultivation base or various means, people are greatly afraid. Many people even rejoice that the Great Elder did not openly attack him, otherwise the silver-robed enshrinement alone would be a huge trouble!

"If you dare to commit an open provocation again, this old man will never let you go!"

Shangguantu looked down upon the audience, shouted angrily, exuding an incomparable domineering aura all over his body!

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked, and their expressions became extremely ugly!

Although Shangguantu had always had a lot of quarrel with the Patriarch and was secretly plotting to gain power over the family, it has to be said that in order to facilitate the marriage with the Jing family, he always maintained the necessary courtesy to Shangguantong.

Before this, he had never been so harsh on Shangguan Tong.

But now, everyone realizes that the situation has changed a lot!

Shangguan Tu seemed to have lost patience with Shangguan Tong, he no longer tolerated it at all, and even threatened him in front of Shangguan Hong, which was almost a blatant declaration of war against the Patriarch!

What was it that gave him such confidence?

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, each with extremely ugly faces, and the atmosphere in the hall was extremely depressing.

If the Patriarch Shangguan Hongxiu was at its peak, the Great Elder would not dare to be so rampant, but the Patriarch's injury has not yet recovered, even if he was furious, there was nothing he could do.

At this moment, neither Shangguanxuan nor Shangguanbo dared to stand out.

The entire conference hall seemed to be a stage for the Great Elder Shangguantu alone, and even the entire Shangguan mansion became the territory of Shangguantu!

Shangguan Tong's pretty face was full of evil, murderous intent surged between his brows, he was silent for a moment and suddenly smiled coldly: "The Great Elder is so majestic! But I still have something to tell you..."

"What news?" Shangguantu smiled coldly and looked at him curiously.

Shangguan Tong said proudly: "Although I went out this time to experience disasters, fortunately, I did not disgrace my mission and successfully brought back the 'Golden Marrow Essence Grass'!"

"Golden Marrow Essence Herb?"

Shangguantu's face changed slightly when he heard the words, and the cold light flashed away in his eyes!

Although it was somewhat unexpected, since seeing the three of them come back alive, he had already made enough mental preparations, and it wasn't particularly surprising that Shangguantong brought back the "Golden Marrow Essence Grass".

This kind of medicinal herb has a unique effect, just enough to heal Shangguanhong's hidden wounds and restore his cultivation base.

It's just that no matter how good the "Golden Marrow Transforming Essence Grass" is, it is not a panacea after all. It may take a while for Shangguan Hong to fully recover his strength.

Before that, there was still not much threat to him.

However, he was not completely free of worries. After all, he had only heard of this herb but never seen it. No one knew how fine Shangguan Tong picked it back.

If the color is excellent, it may be able to shorten Shangguanhong's recovery time to the greatest extent. For him, this is not a good thing.

"Really? Well, then I want to congratulate you, and also the Patriarch?"

Shangguantu's eyes were gloomy, and he looked at Shangguanhong coldly, showing a malicious smile.
