Chapter 182 Prophecy
Shen family.
Shen Youyou sat in the courtyard pavilion, surrounded by a stove and exquisite snacks on the table.
Compared to the biting cold outside, it's as warm as spring here.
Unlike others, she had been waiting here early, as if she expected something big to happen tonight.
After seeing the unusually conspicuous flame writing in the air, a smile broke out on Shen Youyou's face.
snort! Let you not believe me!
She snorted secretly.
Last year, Shen Youyou suddenly felt something in her heart.
It is predicted that there will be a catastrophe in China three years from now.
If you want to save China, you must find the person who deserves the disaster.
As soon as this prophecy came out, it immediately caused an uproar in the Shen family.
The people in the family were also divided into two factions.
One group believes that Shen Youyou, as the best "daughter of destiny" in the Shen family for hundreds of years, should believe in the prophecy and prepare in advance to prevent the Shen family from being destroyed by disaster.
The other group held an objection, believing that Shen Youyou was too young and might have had a wrong premonition and should not act without authorization.
And if there is no catastrophe by then, it will be a huge blow to the Shen family's reputation.
The two sides were in a stalemate, and finally decided to suppress the matter first.
In order to prevent panic to the outside world, it was ordered that external reports were strictly prohibited, otherwise they would be brutally punished.
At the same time, let Shen Youyou find the person who should be robbed on his own.
This result seemed appropriate, but it made Shen Youyou very dissatisfied.
Think they don't believe in themselves.
Just today, her heart was throbbing again, and she had a premonition that something big would happen tonight.
Facts have proved that Shen Youyou's premonition was quite accurate.
Behind her, the middle-aged man who looked like a butler was shocked.
Not only the news of Xiong Batian's death, but also the accuracy of Shen Youyou's prediction.
From the time he followed Shen Youyou, the other party's predictions were almost correct.
Does this indirectly prove that there will really be a catastrophe in China in three years?
Thinking of this, the middle-aged man's heart sank.
…
Ying family.
Ying Hong walked on the smooth stone road with a somewhat uneasy expression.
Just now, his father Ying Zhen sent someone to summon him.
Since the last escape incident, Ying Hong could clearly feel that the way people at home looked at him had changed.
The admiration and awe in the eyes of the juniors disappeared, and their expressions were very strange when they met.
This made Ying Hong extremely angry.
The elders were even more outrageous. Although they did not scold him in person, they could not hide the sarcasm on their faces.
He understood that this was because they did not dare to offend their father.
What scares Ying Hong the most is his usually strict father.
After this incident happened, I was never called over, and I didn’t send someone to summon me until tonight.
He had also seen the flame writing in the sky just now. Although he was shocked, he could not help but feel a little happy.
The strength of his opponent indirectly proved that his choice at that time was correct.
While his thoughts were swirling, Ying Hong walked through many courtyards and came to a house.
"Father."
Ying Hong bowed and saluted.
"Come in."
After a while, a deep voice came from inside.
Ying Hong looked happy, stepped forward and opened the door.
This is a study room with simple and low-key furnishings.
A man of medium build stood in the center of the room with his hands behind his back, his back to the door.
After closing the door, before Ying Hong could speak, he saw the man turn around.
The man's facial features are as strong as stone sculptures, his eyebrows are a strange purple, and his body exudes a majesty that cannot be ignored.
"You seem a little happy?"
Ying Zhen glanced at Ying Hong, as if he could see through the other person's mind.
"without……"
Ying Hong panicked and subconsciously wanted to deny it.
But under his father's gaze, his words stopped abruptly.
He lowered his head, not daring to lie after all.
"Hmph, when did my son, Ying Zhen, become so cowardly? He is actually complacent because of the strength of his enemy."
Ying Zhen laughed angrily and scolded:
"Do you know why I haven't summoned you these days? Just to wait for you to come see me yourself.
"Failure is not terrible. Who in this world dares to say that he has never failed? What is terrible is that he does not dare to face failure!
"You think it's too humiliating to escape without a fight? You let me down so much!"
He shook his head, his tone full of disappointment.
Ying Hong's face turned pale and he clenched his fists.
"It seems that your previous experience has made you too proud. From today on, your family will not provide you with any help.
"Whenever you come back from killing fifty high-level monsters alone, you will be allowed to return to the Ying family.
"If you can't finish it, you'll never have to come back."
Ying Zhen looked down at his beloved son in front of him and said indifferently.
After Ying Hong heard this, he raised his head in disbelief.
But after seeing his father's eyes, he understood that what the other party said was true.
"Yes, father."
Ying Hong's eyes were red, he knelt down and kowtowed three times, then opened the door and left.
The cold wind poured into the study, making the papers on the table rattle.
Ying Zhen looked at the direction where Ying Hong left, expressionless.
After a long time, he remembered something, and a sneer appeared on his face.
"Are you satisfied now?"
Ying Zhen muttered silently to himself.
Ying Hong's fear of fighting and running away had a great impact on the reputation of the Ying family. Some members of the family had previously expressed dissatisfaction.
Just because he was intimidated by the majesty of his monarch-level powerhouse, he didn't dare to bring it up in person, but his little tricks behind his back never stopped.
Regardless of the fact that the Ying family is now the most powerful family among the four major families.
But not all of the Ying family are united, and those among them are even more stubborn than other families.
Some people have long been dissatisfied with the benefits they currently possess.
If he does this tonight, he will probably be able to silence most people.
After a long time, Ying Zhen stepped out of the room.
In the cold and dark dungeon, clan members who have committed serious crimes are locked up here.
After retreating from the guards, Ying Zhen strolled to the end of the dungeon and looked straight at him.
In the narrow cell, a man with a withered face fell to the ground, his eyes dim.
If Wu Ming were present, he would definitely recognize that the person locked inside is actually the Lord of Licheng City, Ying Lie!
Compared with the calm and noble expression before, Ying Lie is completely different now.
When Licheng was attacked by the Dark Night Cult, because he escaped before the battle, Li Cheng failed to organize a resistance force immediately.
When the Ying family found out, they were furious.
Although the Ying family did not care about the life and death of those people, Ying Lie's actions seriously tarnished the family's reputation.
If it weren't for Ying Zhen's persuasion, he would have been killed long ago in public.
Hearing the footsteps, Ying Lie still had no reaction, as if he had lost his soul.
When Ying Zhen saw this, he frowned and said in a low voice:
"Have you thought about it?"
Seeing that the other party was motionless, he sneered:
"You should know that my patience is limited, don't forget who pulled you out of hell.
"If you haven't made a decision when you come next time, you will be useless to me."
After leaving a cold sentence, Ying Zhen waved his sleeves and left the dungeon.
After he left, deathly silence returned to the dungeon.
In the darkness, the body on the ground seemed to move slightly.
