NFBE Chapter 255 Dragon Seal
Chapter 255 Dragon Seal
"I'm so heartbroken for you." The heartache on Lin Dai'er's face was genuine.
Yun Yao looked on helplessly, her thin lips slightly parted.
"That's enough, don't scare the three elders."
Hearing Yun Yao's words, Bai Li and Lin Dai'er stopped and obediently stood behind Yun Yao.
At this moment, everyone on the field except Su Yuchen was dumbfounded.
The three elders knew exactly how skilled the people they brought were, yet they were easily dealt with by these two frail little girls.
Based on Bai Li and Lin Dai'er's skills, they couldn't help but suspect Yun Yao's identity. Was it really as they had found out, that Yun Yao was an illegitimate daughter of a third-rate family?
The current situation is very unfavorable for them. It is very likely that some of the elites of the Elder Hall will perish here. After thinking it over again, the Grand Elder hurriedly spoke.
"Young Madam, we were the ones who offended you first. I apologize to you, and I hope you will be magnanimous and not hold it against your own family." The First Elder's words were so impeccable that no one could find fault with them.
But... Yun Yao wasn't buying it.
Just as she was about to speak, she saw Su Yuchen casting a glance at her. Yun Yao understood and swallowed her aggressive words.
"Alright, for Su Yuchen's sake, I'll spare you this time. But I'm warning you Elders today: if you offend me again, I'll make sure you don't even know how you died." Yun Yao's clear and serious voice rang out in the living room.
"Yes, yes, we will remember that."
"What are you all still lying on the ground for? Didn't you hear the young mistress say she would let you go? You're making a fool of yourselves here. Get out of here right now!" The elder roared at the people on the ground who were groaning in pain.
These subordinates dared not delay. Those with minor injuries carried the poisoned person out, and they disappeared completely in less than five seconds. If it weren't for the lingering smell of blood in the air, one would have suspected that nothing had happened.
The Grand Elder then looked at Bai Li and Lin Dai'er behind Yun Yao.
Yun Yao chuckled and waved to the two people behind her.
"Alright, you two go out too, and help the people outside detoxify while you're at it."
Only after Bai Li and Lin Dai'er left did the three elders' expressions ease slightly.
But before they could relax for even a second, they felt an even more suffocating and powerful aura coming towards them. Turning their heads, they saw that Su Yuchen had already walked up behind them.
They haven't been out for several years, so it feels like there are so many extraordinary talents in the world, and they all seem to be gathered in the Su family.
"Su... Su Yuchen." The Third Elder was already terrified of the couple, and his voice trembled slightly as he spoke.
Su Yuchen ignored them and walked towards the woman whose eyes were filled with his.
He sat down next to her, separating Yun Yao and Bu Lanying.
"From today onwards, I am the head of the Su family. Everyone, do you have any objections?" Su Yuchen's gaze fell on the First Elder.
With the couple inside and those two deadly weapons outside, how could he possibly have any objections?
As the saying goes, experience is the best teacher. The First Elder reacted quickly, clasping his hands together and nodding slightly to Su Yuchen.
"No one is more suitable for the position of head of the family than you. Congratulations, head of the family."
Immediately afterwards, the Second Elder and the Third Elder also congratulated Su Yuchen. The three of them completely disregarded how ugly Bu Lanying's face was, and within a few breaths they had already paid homage to their new master.
Bu Lanying's mind was in complete chaos, and she had no idea how to react. Under the pressure of the elder's gaze, she reluctantly took the family head's token from her collar.
When Su Yuchen received the family head's order, everyone present had different thoughts.
However, the most intense reaction came from Su Weiwen, who had always been taciturn and had little presence.
He looked at the beautiful couple sitting there and couldn't help but nod repeatedly.
Xiao Yun, our child has grown up and found a girl who is just as wonderful as him.
Unfortunately, you won't be able to see it...
Thinking of this, Su Weiwen's expression turned cold and fierce, his eyes filled with a madness capable of destroying the world.
Having obtained the patriarch's order, Su Yuchen was too lazy to feign politeness with the elders. After sending them away, he took Yun Yao upstairs.
As soon as he closed the door, Su Yuchen went into the bathroom and turned on the tap to rinse the gleaming family head token several times.
Yun Yao looked at the family head's token in his hand and nodded silently.
This old lady Bu must be so afraid of losing the head of the household's token that she wears it on her body all the time; it's even developed a patina from it.
An hour later, Su Yuchen handed the thoroughly cleaned family head's token to Yun Yao.
As soon as he came out, he saw that Yun Yao had already taken out the safe and was squatting in front of it, examining it carefully. Her expression was very solemn.
"Wanwan, is something wrong?"
Yun Yao shook her head, then nodded.
“Something’s not right. The things in here are actually interfering with my magic. Su Yuchen, why don’t you give it a try?” Yun Yao stood up and made way for her.
Su Yuchen placed one hand on the safe and slowly closed his eyes.
A moment later, his eyes snapped open.
"Wanwan, I can't detect it."
This result was within Yun Yao's expectations. She only asked Su Yuchen to try, and she didn't have high hopes. If he actually opened it, wouldn't she lose face?
Su Yuchen felt somewhat helpless seeing Yun Yao's smug expression. Don't think he didn't know what she was thinking.
Yun Yao placed the family head's token into the key slot, where it fit perfectly. She turned it gently and heard a click from inside.
"It's done!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the safe opened, and the contents inside stunned Yun Yao for a few seconds.
"Wanwan, what is this?"
Before them lay a large piece of amber, and within this translucent amber was a seal depicting a divine dragon trampling a demon.
What is this thing? Even Yun Yao didn't know.
Yun Yao stared blankly at the Dragon Seal, a tear sliding down her cheek. Overwhelmed by grief, countless fragmented memories flooded her mind, as if trying to tear her brain apart.
Seeing that Yun Yao remained silent, Su Yuchen turned around and noticed that her face was pale and her expression was pained.
It was this Dragon Seal that interfered with her!
Without thinking about anything else, Su Yuchen quickly covered the dragon seal with the clothes at hand.
In that instant, Yun Yao seemed to have all her strength drained away, and she fainted in his arms.
"Late night?"
Su Yuchen picked her up and gently placed her on the bed.
And Yun Yao... returned to that dream filled with mud and howling ghosts.
This time, however, she saw something different.
Among those unfamiliar faces, a white figure stood out. He was so pure and serene, that even just his back view made one feel that he deserved the best things in the world.
As always, another figure appeared in the nightmare swamp. Yun Yao should have been overjoyed, but she couldn't be happy. She knelt down in the mud, clutching her chest tightly, and cried out in pain.
How could this be? Who is he?!
With all her might, Yun Yao called out to the retreating figure.
"who are you!"
