C39 Night Talk

Within Rhine's bedroom in the Mutters' family.

The three of them sat down at the table. Ce'Nedra was obviously not paying attention to anything else. She just stared at Linke. No matter how hard she looked, she could not get enough attention.

Rhine noticed Selina's state, and the guilt in his heart deepened. He suppressed some of his complicated emotions, looked at the eight interspatial rings arranged in a row on the table, and asked, "You said that you were taken to an empty island by an almighty being, and that you received his kindness, and brought back a pile of treasure and so many interspatial rings?"

"Yes, that's a bald man, claiming to be the Pope of the Dark Church." Besides the mysterious inheritance and the black stone, Link didn't plan to hide anything from these two people.

Rhine's expression suddenly changed, he walked to the bedroom and opened the door to give some orders to the guards outside, then went back to the bedroom and opened a hidden secret door. He then led Selina and Link to an underground secret room, and after opening some defensive arrays, he said, "You have to forget about the Dark Church, and never mention it to anyone. I don't care what mission the bald man gave you, just forget about it!" Don't try to get even the tiniest bit involved with the Dark Church! "Cohen!"

Linke nodded thoughtfully at Rhine's unprecedented nervousness.

"How do you plan on dealing with these interspatial rings and the things inside?" Rhine stared at Link until he nodded sincerely, then continued to ask, he didn't pay attention to the ring on Link's right middle finger.

These rings are all some weapons, equipment, potion scrolls and the like. Since they can be stored in the treasury there, I think they're still pretty good, but they won't be of much use to me, so I plan to leave them all to you, but you said that you don't want to get involved with the Dark Church, so it's necessary to make some disguises for them. Also, the ring I gave to Lilisse has some similar items stored in it, so I'll have her hand them over to you later. "I just want to give one to Mom, Snow and Neil. I'll leave the rest to you."

Rhine smiled and nodded, feeling relieved, but then his face darkened again, "Selina told you what happened after that. Seventh Brother and Snow's slight injury is the only thing worth being happy about, the guards scattered around could not even return a third of their original number. As for Brooke …"

Link fell silent. Even though Selina had told him about it on the way here, he still couldn't calm down when Rhine started talking about it again. "It's Philip family."

"It really is them?!" Rhine was furious.

"In the end, I saw Loke's face and that idiot took off his battle qi armor. He probably felt that a small figure like me would undoubtedly die in his hands," Lin Ke sneered.

Rhine clenched his fists and calmed down. He frowned and started to think.

This decision might involve the survival and continuity of the family.

This was a difficult time for the Murters.

After a long time, Rhine seemed to have made up his mind. He raised his eyebrows and revealed an expression that Link had never seen before, but he suddenly felt a clear chill and killing intent, "Some people want to see if the Mut Family is qualified to become the seventh biggest family in the Wind City, they want to see if the sword is sharp or not, and they want to see if we have no successors. Then, let me show them!"

— —

Linke and Rhine were sitting opposite to each other.

This was the first time he had boarded the carriage of Rhine, the head of the family, as far as Cohen could remember.

The carriage was not very spacious and did not have any special decorations or decorations. Compared to Lin Ke's own carriage, it was extremely shabby.

"What is it? It's very strange that grandpa would sit on such a crappy color. " Rhine smiled and asked.

Lin Ke nodded without hesitation, "These old goods should soon be turned into antiques for people to see in the memorial hall."

"Hahaha," Rhine laughed happily, "This is probably the sorrow of someone like grandpa. I have lived in a poor family for dozens of years, and fought in the army for a long time, but when I finally returned home, I found that I was actually a little scared. Hehe, the endless tower of heads and the ferocious and terrifying giant dragons never made me scared like that, and only then did I realize that I was still a commoner after all, and couldn't enjoy the life of a noble, as if only coarse tea can make me eat my fill, and only the bamboo bed can make me sleep."

Link nodded. He knew Rhine would never know what it was like to have such a feeling.

The first time he owned a car of his own in the present day, he was so nervous that he trembled with emotion that ordinary people would never be able to understand it.

Reverence.

There were very few people walking around the Wind City at night.

Only the occasional patrol passing through the main streets.

After seeing Rhine's signature carriage and the family emblem on the carriage, a few soldiers who wanted to interrogate Rhine immediately stopped and saluted, looked at the carriage and respectfully sent off.

Inside the coach, Link didn't seem to know anything about what was happening outside. He just told Rhine about what he had experienced these days in detail, and Rhine listened to it with relish. Especially on the island, Linke and Lilith saved Rongqin and their daughter, which made him smile with satisfaction.

"But the key to a conspiracy is to conceal one's intentions well. If it wasn't for the fact that the Cursed Land let the Three Evildoers take the lead in this conspiracy, and if it wasn't for the fact that each of the three evildoers had great awareness for each other, even if one of them had a bit of trust in the other, your plan would still have been a problem. I said that it's not to deny your plan, but to tell you that a thousand people will encounter a conspiracy like this, and if it wasn't for the Three Evildoers, I would still hope that you would be able to use a conspiracy like this one."

"Which one are we going to?"

Rhine nodded with satisfaction, "Beetee."

Patriarch Moutes visited the Beetee family late at night.

The Beetle family welcomed them with open doors.

This immediately caught the attention of many people.

In the tranquil night, the undercurrents moved.

In the guest hall of the Beetee Family, a white-haired old man with wrinkled skin and spots of age sat in the center of the front seat. Two old men sat on the left side, and the one sitting on the bottom seat was the representative of the Beetee Family. Rhine was sitting alone on the right side of the table. Link had also been brought in, but they could only obediently stand behind Rhine.

"The Rhine Family Head came to visit us late at night, I think he has something important to say?" The one who spoke was not the old man sitting in the middle, but the one who looked a little younger. He looked at the old man sitting next to him, and saw that the old man was nodding slightly.

"Sorry for disturbing your rest. Elder Rodney must have recognized that the person standing behind me is the man who was intercepted and disappeared a while ago, Cohen Moutes. My grandson saw the face of the murderer who chased the beast tide into my family's territory and then surrounded and killed the children of my Moutes. Patriarch Robert, Rhine came to visit your family today. Actually, he had the cheek to ask for justice from the Beetle Family," Rhine said with a sorrowful expression.

The elders of the Beetle Family were not in a hurry to speak. Instead, they lowered their heads in silence and thought for a moment, as if they were the weaker seniors.

Rhine was not in a hurry. He was waiting for the tea to be served.

"The Rhine Family's leader is also from the army," the elder named Robert said slowly. "It's only right for the Beetle Family to give some support, not to mention that the Rhine Family's leader is from a high position in the Wind City's military, and is also recognized by the Emperor. I wonder to what extent the Mut Family is planning to reach?"

"Of course, we can't lose the prestige of the seven great families," Rhine chuckled, without the look of grievance on his face, "Although some people challenged the honor of the Moutes, but they also injured the reputation of the seven great families, which is not something the Moutts can tolerate," he took a deep look at Robert, picked up his teacup and took a sip of tea, then said slowly, "For those who don't understand anything, they should be beaten down, and those who do it should also disappear."

The scene turned silent once again.

"The Rhine clan should know that the death of a large noble clan is not something that can be decided by the Beetle clan," Robert said, glancing at Link.

Rhine slowly said with a serious expression on his face, "After all, the Mut family is still young, and needs the guidance of a family with a noble surname like Beetle, but I am certain of one thing, that is, I am a soldier, and my only son is a soldier. In the future," Rhine said confidently, "my most outstanding grandson will also join the army.

"I think that a noble and powerful family like Sarath would be able to deliver the judgement for the family that offended the honor of the Moulters family, and the Beetle family would be willing to work with the Moulters family to judge those imperial rebels who colluded with the dragon family."

Rhine smiled and nodded to Robert, "Tomorrow is the meeting between Cohen and the genius of your family, Phias. I will go there to watch the ceremony. Tomorrow is a good day."

"Time is of the essence, we need some time to pass the news to the Sarath Family."

"No, tomorrow is indeed a good day," the old man who seemed to be on the verge of death suddenly spoke up.

From beginning to end, no one mentioned the noun that might have long been mentioned.

Fei Li family.
