Chapter 757: Untitled
As expected, when this group of people reached the borders of the wasteland, they were stopped by a small team.
“We are here to look for Miss Su. Please help us inform her that the Dugu Family’s meeting will be held the day after tomorrow. Please don’t let Miss Su miss it this year.” The person who spoke was the elder. He no longer had the expression on his face when he was on the private jet. When he saw this guard, he was rather polite.
“Miss Su?” The guard had already heard Gu Li and the rest’s instructions. He just had to deal with these people directly. He had met them many times in the past, but this time was different. He received a notice from the higher-ups. “It’s Elder Dugu, right? Our boss just said that she will go to the annual meeting.”
Initially, this elder thought that he still had to prepare an excuse before he could persuade these people. However, he didn’t expect the other party to agree without him saying anything. It was completely different from last year’s coldness. He was stunned for a moment before reacting.
“In that case, we will wait for Miss Su in the Dugu Family.”
With that, he didn’t stay long. He boarded the private jet and prepared to leave. When they couldn’t see the group of guards anymore, the person beside Elder Dugu asked curiously, “Elder, Miss Su’s family really didn’t invite us in. However, why are you so polite to that guard?”
When the others heard this, they also felt very strange. They knew that the group of guards didn’t invite them in. The other party probably didn’t dare. It was just that being so polite to a guard in the northern wilderness didn’t seem like the style of an elder.
“Don’t bother.” The elder’s face didn’t have the relaxed smile of this group of people. Instead, it was a little serious.
Seeing the elder like this, the others didn’t ask further, just smiled, and chatted. “Miss Su actually agreed. I thought that this mission wouldn’t be completed.”
“I didn’t expect it either. This time, it’s fun. Miss Shuang’er’s island is almost developed into a second-class island by her. Miss Su’s wasteland is still like this. Tch, if it were me, I wouldn’t return to the Dugu Family even if I died…”
The few of them smiled, but the elder didn’t. He frowned and felt that something was wrong.
The others could not feel it, but he could easily feel that that guard just now… was clearly already at the fourth level.
What was the concept of a fourth-level? In the Dugu Family, he was a first-level genius. Dugu Shuang was a fifth-level genius. Putting aside the monstrous Su Huiqing, it was really not easy to reach the fourth level at this age.
However… this person was a guard that Su Huiqing casually sent to the borders.
Was it a coincidence that Su Huiqing sent him here on purpose, or… did he miss something?
However, this elder didn’t dare to believe that Su Huiqing had successfully developed a wasteland. After all, in his eyes, Su Huiqing didn’t have any resources. He could only believe that she had reached the sixth level.
At this moment, Su Huiqing—who was talking to Gu Li and the rest—also received the news from the guard.
“It looks like they have made up their minds.” Gu Li calmly poured himself a cup of water. His appearance had not changed much in the past year. At least, his aura had become more stable.
“Get ready. We will go to the Dugu Family tomorrow.” Su Huiqing patted her sleeves and stood up. “I will go look for Grandpa and the rest.”
“Tomorrow?” Yu Xiangyang was stunned. “Isn’t it the day after tomorrow?”
Su Huiqing didn’t care much. “Since they are so anxious to see me, I can’t disappoint them, right?”
