Chapter Fifty-Seven: One Disaster After Another, The He Family Meets with Calamity
A toilet collapsed, although the matter was somewhat suspicious, but compared to one's own loss, it didn't seem like a big deal. Such news that would normally attract everyone's attention was actually ignored by everyone.
The guard suddenly became anxious and said loudly: "But, but at that time, Fourth Master was just inside the toilet."
What? Old Fourth is in the toilet, and then the toilet collapsed, he didn't come out. This matter is not small. Although Old Fourth is not the main family line, he is also a very important son of the direct descent. If something happens to Old Fourth, his father and grandfather will make trouble, even the current master of the house won't be able to get away with it. Moreover, it's at this critical moment.
The master of the house struggled to stand up, and with some difficulty said: "Quickly, quickly take me there. Also, notify all members of the family, someone is dealing with our family, let everyone be careful."
He took a deep breath and the master of the house rushed to the toilet with his people. No need to lead the way, the toilets used by the upper class and those used by the lower class were actually scattered apart, otherwise there wouldn't be such a big commotion.
Before long, the group arrived at the outhouse. At this time, the outhouse had completely collapsed and become a pile of ruins. Behind it was a large pit emitting a foul odor. But in this situation, who would care about these things.
"Hurry up, be careful not to hurt Fourth Young Master. Get out of my way, I'll do it." A person who seemed to be in charge yelled and directed everyone to dig through the rubble. Finally, a half-dead boy with a lot of feces on his buttocks and covered in dust was dug out. Needless to say, this was their Fourth Young Master.
The master of the house turned pale, and the others didn't look good either. What's going on here? So many things have happened, it must be someone targeting them. Even the other top families couldn't do this much.
The Imperial City Academy would not have dealt with them at this time, and besides, they had not offended the Imperial City Academy in any way. What was going on, who had they provoked as an enemy? And what kind of person was this enemy?
I don't know who is dealing with myself, even if I want to apologize or think of other methods, it's no use. The master of the house has red eyes, but everyone's attention is drawn here. No one sees that in the back hall, some corners are protruding, and some insects are flying out from inside. After that, the entire hall starts shaking.
"Hurry, hurry, look, what's wrong with the hall." Finally, someone discovered that something was off about the family hall. Everyone quickly turned their heads around, and at this time, the people of the He family had all become startled birds. Turning back to look, this was not good.
The hall was shaking and the shaking got worse. "Not good, let's get everyone out quickly!" The host shouted loudly and rushed to the entrance of the hall. He immediately called out all the people inside. Even he himself rushed in and pulled out several young boys from the middle of the crowd. Just as everyone had come out, the entire hall collapsed.
"Rumbling..." The sound of collapse and explosion was endless, a cloud of dust rose. At this time, no one had the heart to speak. The hall collapsed, but nothing was damaged, and there were no casualties.
But the hall represents the face of the He family, and the enemy is slapping their own face. However, they don't even know who the enemy is. The hall has collapsed, and the He family's reputation will be completely lost, their prestige will also be greatly affected. Not to mention, many things inside the hall that were used for decoration are extremely valuable.
The entire hall has collapsed, and nothing inside will be left. Just then, the master of the house suddenly shouted loudly: "All of you go and search, those people must still be in the family, all of you go and find them."
The homeowner went crazy and ran towards a relatively intact building. It's impossible to bring down the entire building without making any noise. At least the beams inside the room can be broken. Looking back, it seems that no beam was found in the ruins of the newly collapsed hall and toilet. As long as you look carefully, you should be able to find one.
Others immediately reacted. This time, the He family's face was lost. The matter was too big and couldn't be hidden at all. If even the murderer wasn't caught, what qualifications did the He family have to stand?
Especially those in high positions, they knew what had happened to their families. All the property, all the resources, even the family's collection of books, were gone without a trace. At this time, the He family's foundation was reduced by more than half.
The potential of the He family is even weaker than that of the Huo family. As time passes, the strength of the He family will gradually decline and eventually become the worst among the top families in Xizang. In severe cases, they may not even be able to maintain their status as a top family. At this point, no one cares about internal strife, and everyone disperses to find the murderer.
In the midst of the Huo family's grand estate, Huo Hai was in a state of tranquility. "Hehe, this is really interesting, too much fun." As he watched the Huo family through Xiao Die, Huo Hai was delighted to the point of madness. The current Huo family, just like ants on a hot pot, was truly entertaining.
This is the outcome of laying hands on Yun'er, even my sister dares to take action, truly ignorant of life and death. In his heart, Hao Hai thought faintly that the more miserable the He family was, the happier he became. The disappearance of those things earlier was all his doing.
Let the star worms eat things away, and then things would disappear out of thin air. There was no need to move anything, so naturally there wouldn't be any hidden passages or anything like that found. Even later on, Huo Hai commanded the star worms to eat away some important rooms' beams, and then they would also eat away a part of some important places. Afterwards, the entire house would collapse.
Hu Hai didn't know the fourth young master of He's family, but he saw a well-dressed person in the toilet. So, he directly made the toilet collapse and let the guy fall into the pit. Xing Huang acted quickly, and the toilet collapsed instantly.
The only pity is that this guy fell forward and didn't fall into the pit. Seeing this scene, Huo Hai could only sigh in frustration. This guy's luck was really good. Otherwise, there would have been news of He family's young master falling into the pit and drowning to death.
After demolishing a few more houses, Huo Hai found that he had no chance. Because within a short period of time, the He family members who had reacted came to guard all the main beams of the houses. The important things were also concentrated together and people were sent to protect them well. Now the high-ranking masters of the He family's spiritual realm are taking action one after another. If Xing Huang continues to act, he will definitely be exposed.
"Ah, what a pity. These guys reacted too quickly. Never mind, it seems that Xīng Huàn has eaten too much this time. Let's hurry back." This "eating too much" doesn't mean eating useless things.
But earlier, I had eaten a large amount of high-grade minerals and medicinal dan medicine, the spiritual power contained in which was terrifying. Even some of the star worms felt that they couldn't eat anymore. It's not easy to get the star worms full.
Might as well, hurry up and let these star worms that haven't undergone metamorphosis yet return home to undergo it once. To catch up with the strength of other star worms. Only star worms that have undergone metamorphosis once will stay behind with Xiao Die and Xiao Jin to continue monitoring the He family.
Huo Hai's face was filled with cold smiles. The He family had suffered such a great loss this time, and it would be interesting to see how they would get through this difficult period. "Hmph, the He family has ended up like this, other families should be more restrained now." Huo Hai did not do this just for revenge against the He family. It was also to make other families cautious and temporarily restrain themselves.
In this way, it will not be until the Huo family has finished cleaning up internally that they will have enough time to redevelop. By the time they react, the Huo family's strength will have fully recovered and may even surpass its previous level.
This is his own family, and Huo Hai will not let the Huo family decline. In this world, Huo Hai has already regarded the Huo family as his own home. Even if there is no concept of family, but family members cannot be harmed.
One night's time, the main thing is that only the star worms are acting. Huo Hai didn't lose too much spiritual power, and when the second batch of star worms returned to the room, Huo Hai immediately ordered them to enter the urn to undergo metamorphosis. As for Huo Hai himself, he closed his eyes and began to adjust his own blood energy. The excitement just now made the blood energy in his body start boiling again.
When something happens, Xiao Die will notify her own. Time slowly flows away, and the insects can hold on, but the people of the He family are not okay. Except for those in the Lingzhe boundary, everyone else is about to fall asleep.
No one can maintain a state of high concentration for an entire night, nor can they search the entire family without stopping all night. Under this condition, physical strength is consumed very quickly. Not everyone can be as abnormal as Huo Hai.
As the sky approached dawn, the people of He's family finally couldn't hold on. First, it was some little kids who fell asleep first. Then, it was some people with not-so-strong physical strength, whose eyelids started to fight.
"Alright, you all go take a rest first. It's an extraordinary period now, everyone takes turns resting, I don't know who is targeting us and what their goal is. Be careful, don't get ambushed." With the master of the house's words, some people who couldn't hold on any longer finally went to sleep. Among them was He Zhai, that guy whom Huo Hai disliked.
As soon as something happened at He's house, Xiao Die immediately informed Huo Hai. After learning about the situation through Xiao Die, a smile spread across his face: "Hehe, what a great opportunity. He's in a tight spot, let's collect some interest today."
Huo Hai didn't take immediate action, instead he controlled the Star Worm to follow He Ya while letting Xiao Jin fly back. Not directly entering the Huo residence, but rather into a thicket of grass.
