Chapter 457: Chapter 456 Everyone Can Watch the Show Again
Lu Xun and Luo Ning did not speak but simply looked at him, waiting for what he would say next.
Xue Ying continued with a smile, "Last time I was taken to the International Black Alliance for training, I saw a middle-aged man from Huaxia enter."
"Then, I accidentally heard someone addressing him as Lou Family Master."
Luo Ning asked him, "Did you get a good look at his face?"
Xue Ying replied, "I did see it clearly, but I have never met Lou Family Master, so I’m not sure if it was really him."
Luo Ning took out her mobile phone and pulled up a photo of Lou Family Master from the last conference she attended.
She had taken photos of everyone who attended the conference last time, which was convenient for situations like this.
"Is it him?"
Xue Ying took the phone and looked at it, "It’s him."
"Are you sure?" asked Luo Ning.
Xue Ying nodded without hesitation, "Absolutely sure."
He added, "I heard the person leading him in say that they were taking him to meet the Great Leader."
"By the way, my dad said that the Imperial Jade Seal we handed over was divided into seven pieces, and the remaining six might be with the Six Ancient Feng Shui Families."
"It seems the International Black Alliance already has three of them."
"That day I saw Lou Family Master, he was holding a wooden box similar to the one we have at home."
Luo Ning and Lu Xun exchanged glances; this news was indeed very important.
Luo Ning looked at him and exclaimed, "Your family is quite something, to have one of the pieces."
Xue Ying bitterly laughed, "It was originally obtained by my great-grandfather from a dying Feng Shui Mage from the Southern Ocean; we thought it had great collecting value, only to find out it was a curse."
Xue Ying chuckled again, "Now we wish we didn’t have this thing."
Otherwise, his mother might not have died because of it.
His dad now regrets not sending it back to the country sooner.
Seeing him like this, Luo Ning recalled the incident with his mother, "I’m sorry."
It was clear that Xue Ying and his son were fond of their deceased wife/mother, and this thing indeed spelled trouble for them.
Xue Ying waved it off, "It’s okay; if it weren’t for you guys, I might have even lost my dad."
He continued, "I just hope that the International Black Alliance is annihilated one day."
The Xue family finding revenge would be difficult, so he pinned his hopes on Lu Xun and Luo Ning.
His dad said the authorities would presumably not tolerate the International Black Alliance, as stealing the Luck from the Dragon Vein was utterly reckless and boundary-crossing.
Luo Ning nodded, "Maybe that day will come."
After dinner, Xue Ying went back on his own, and Lu Xun drove Luo Ning.
In the car.
Luo Ning remarked, "If what Xue Ying said is true, that the Black Alliance already has three Imperial Jade Seals, that means three families have betrayed us."
Lu Xun nodded, "What he said should be the truth."
"Lou Family’s betrayal is confirmed, and given the Wen Family’s close association with them, they most likely contributed one as well."
"It’s just unknown which family contributed the third one."
Luo Ning pondered then said, "I feel the chances of it being the Lei Family are slim."
She had visited the Lei Family and knew them quite well. Moreover, from what she learned from the Snake King, the Lei Family members were clever and likely wouldn’t cross the line with the authorities.
Lu Xun said, "The chances of it being the Sikong Family are also slim."
Not because the Sikong Family was his maternal clan, but because his family’s elder was confident the Sikong Family was not involved.
Luo Ning stroked her chin, "If so, that leaves the Luo Family and the Ming Family as the most likely suspects."
Lu Xun said, "Indeed, although the chances are slim, we cannot completely rule out the Lei Family and the Sikong Family; we still need to be cautious."
He added, "Anyway, the Lou Family is definitely a betrayer, and the Wen Family most likely as well, confirming this will help us prepare better for the upcoming island operation."
Previously, although they had suspected the Lou Family, without concrete evidence or leverage, they couldn’t decisively accuse them of betrayal.
Now that Xue Ying personally saw the Lou Family Master supposedly delivering the Imperial Jade Seal to the International Black Alliance, their side could add some deployments.
Luo Ning asked, "Is the operation happening in a few days?"
Lu Xun squeezed her hand, "Yes, I’ve already notified the Six Great Families to send people to assist, they will lead the charge, and our special division will coordinate with the Fengshui Xuanhui."
Luo Ning smiled and asked, "Did they agree?"
Lu Xun curved his lips, "They have to agree, whether they like it or not."
Luo Ning declared, "Ranran and I will join the operation."
Lu Xun pulled her hand to his lips and kissed it, "Alright!"
Three days later, representatives of the Six Great Families arrived in the Imperial Capital at the agreed time.
What surprised Luo Ning was that not only had Family Head Luo come, but Lei Lifei and Lou Family Master had also arrived.
Old Man Luo came personally because, as agreed earlier, after this event, her mother and sister would return with him to the Luo Family.
The fact that Lei Lifei and Lou Family Master had also come did give rise to speculation.
Today, as the Six Great Families gathered, Luo Ning, as a member of the special department, accompanied Lu Xun in receiving them.
Lu Xun first greeted everyone, then directly went on to arrange the purging plan.
The operation was set for two days later with everyone participating.
After the plan was laid out, everyone dispersed.
Lei Lifei lazily called out to Luo Ning, "Little niece, it’s been several years since I’ve been to the Imperial Capital, accompany me for a walk."
Luo Ning smiled and agreed, "Sure!"
She even invited, "Lei Qiu has been staying at my house at the foot of the Mountain for the last six months, Uncle, would you like to stay for a couple of days?"
Lei Qiu had not been back to the island much over the past six months and had been staying at the foot of the Mountain.
The Yanyue Blade had been restrained and arranged by Luo Ning in an Array in the basement of the Siheyuan, turning the evil spirit into Vital Energy continuously.
Thereby, both the Siheyuan and the surrounding Feng Shui constantly improved daily, benefiting the health and longevity of ordinary residents.
For a Feng Shui Master, it was not only the same effect but also helped in advancing their skills.
So, seeing that Luo Ranran wasn’t leaving, Lei Qiu also stubbornly stayed at the foot of the Mountain.
Lei Lifei laughed, "That would be great! Lei Qiu, that rascal, has been telling me how good your place is; I want to experience it myself."
Upon finishing, he waved casually to the people from the Lei Family who followed him, irresponsibly saying, "You guys go have fun on your own for these two days."
People from the Lei Family: "..." They knew their acting family head was still unreliable.
Running off to have fun and deliberately ditching them was something only this scoundrel would do.
They had no choice but to accept it.
People from other families were speechless too; they had not expected Lei Lifei to come in person.
This guy was just a troublemaker, and everyone just hoped he wouldn’t stir up too much chaos.
Many glanced at Family Head Luo with a look of expecting a good show.
His granddaughter inviting her uncle to stay and not her own grandfather, the family dynamics during the operation could indeed turn into quite the spectacle.
Family Head Luo snorted coldly, keeping a stern face as he led the Luo Family away first, to avoid getting angry seeing Luo Ning with Lei Lifei.
Seeing this, other families also departed one by one.
Luo Ning then drove Lei Lifei back to her home.
