Rebirth of the Heavenly Empress

Chapter 340: Bad News

Su Huiqing then brought Qu Yan and the rest to somewhere else.

She went straight to the Dugu Family. She had to go to the Dugu Family’s residence and then head to Gideon’s place. She had to rush back before going to the training grounds. Time was of the essence.

The first elder was just about to leave when he saw Su Huiqing. He was shocked. “Missy?”

The other members of the Dugu Family looked at Su Huiqing with fear in their eyes.

The fifth elder, who was following behind the first elder, looked ashamed. He lowered his head, not daring to look at her.

Su Huiqing nodded at the first elder. Seeing that almost all the elders were present, she could not help but raise her eyebrows. “Are you guys still going out?”

The first elder bowed respectfully towards Su Huiqing. “Missy, we are going out. The Dugu Family cannot be absent from the sudden appearance of the King of Mercenaries.”

Now that there was no news of Dugu Heng, the first elder didn’t dare to act rashly.

Upon hearing this answer, Su Huiqing was stunned. She turned her gaze, and her fingertips paused slightly. “I see. But you might not be able to see her in person.”

“Missy, you are so familiar with Mr. Chi Yue. Do you know the King of Mercenaries as well?” The first elder suddenly recalled that Su Huiqing was able to activate a level seven weapon on Unknown Island.

Su Huiqing smirked. “Not really.”

The first elder saw that Su Huiqing obviously didn’t wish to speak further and didn’t pursue further.

Just then, Yu Xiangyang picked up his phone and said to Su Huiqing, “Qingqing, Chi Yue called. He said that Country M’s commander-in-chief wants to see you.”

She stopped in her tracks. Su Huiqing tilted her head and was still holding her phone. She glanced at Yu Xiangyang. Back when she went to Country H, she thought she could meet that person from Country M. But now…

She gripped her phone and immediately decided. “…let’s go to his place first.”

The four of them rushed out before they could enter the house.

The first elder and the rest were still standing at the same spot, stunned. “Why would someone in Country M look for Missy? Wait a minute, forget about looking for Missy. How did they find Mr. Chi Yue?!”

The elders looked at each other and started to feel that they were getting more and more confused about this Missy.

Her deep and cold eyes made them feel mysterious.

…

“Captain, Commander-in-Chief Xize is inside.” Chi Yue saw that Su Huiqing had already arrived and immediately went up to her. “Dugu Yusheng and I worked together to investigate the Dugu Family Head, but we didn’t find any information about him.”

She didn’t manage to find anything, and this matter was within her expectations. Su Huiqing nodded.

As they spoke, they arrived at the meeting place. Chi Yue pushed the door open. The tall figure standing at the door turned around, revealing his dark eyes.

“You… how did you become like this?” Upon seeing Su Huiqing, Xize frowned.

Although it was different from what he saw previously, he didn’t doubt her. Xi Ze didn’t know who else could be there besides that person.

“It’s a little complicated.” Su Huiqing didn’t explain. “What happened to Chi Qing recently?”

“Him?” Upon mentioning Chi Qing, Xize remained calm. “He has been racing in Country M all this while, causing chaos in the racing world.”

“Car racing…” Su Huiqing narrowed her eyes thoughtfully.

Xize didn’t care about this at all. Instead, he straightened his face and said, “It’s good that you’re here. Recently, the International Association seems to be in a bad state. There are all sorts of strange movements.”

“The resource competition is coming. Those people overseas are waiting to get a share of the profits from the International Association.” Su Huiqing played with her fingers. “Up until now, the International Association has already sent several batches of major powers overseas.”

Xize was silent for a moment. “They are definitely not easy to deal with. You have to be careful. When they dealt with you, they were probably targeting Unknown Island.”

They were not targeting Unknown Island. They were probably targeting the entire International Association.

Now that Su S was back, he definitely wouldn’t let this matter rest.

“It’s time for the International Association to clean up…” Su Huiqing supported her chin.

The two of them didn’t feel awkward at all this time, just like many years ago.

“Alright, it’s good that you know. I’ll go meet the teacher.” After he finished speaking, he patted his sleeves and stood up.

“Xize.” At the mention of Principal Dien, Su Huiqing remained silent for a moment before giving a bitter smile. “You have to help me explain this matter. I have been back at the International Association for so long, but I have never admitted to Teacher…”

“You…” Xize opened his mouth and looked at her helplessly. “You should talk about this yourself. He has always doted on you the most.”

Su Huiqing was about to say something when Chi Yue suddenly knocked on the door. His face changed. “Captain, bad news!”

Not long after, Su Huiqing left.

…

Dugu Heng suddenly appeared at the door of the Dugu Family. Unlike Su Ruohua’s coma, Dugu Heng’s spirit energy had been destroyed and his bones were shattered.

Upon hearing this news, the first and fifth elders felt like they were struck by lightning and almost fell to the ground.

This day had finally come. Dugu Heng, who had been supporting the Dugu Family all along… had collapsed!
