Chapter 3460: Long Jiaojiao was punished
"Go away!" Li Mochen said. He couldn't look kindly at the person who framed his reputation even if she apologized. It was already good enough that he didn't directly destroy her.
"Go back and apologize to the head of the family yourself. If you wait until I get back to talk, your punishment will be more severe." Long Qi said coldly. He couldn't hide the disgust in his eyes when he looked at Long Jiaojiao, because he knew very well what Long Jiaojiao had done.
"Yes." Long Jiaojiao was unwilling, but dared not disobey, and then fled.
After Long Jiaojiao left, Long Qi clasped his fists towards Li Mochen and said, "Senior, it is because the Long family did not discipline me strictly that I have offended you. Please do not bear any grudges against you because of this. I am the eldest son of the Lord of Longgu City. I, Long Qi, would like to make friends with you. I wonder if you think highly of me. I am in such a hurry to invite you to have a cup of tea!"
When Long Qi stated his identity, there was no intention of showing off or being arrogant. His identity was nothing in front of the strong.
"Of course." Li Mochen responded. As the former leader of the Tiancheng Sect, he naturally knew what kind of family the Long family was, and he also knew Long Qi.
Long Qi is also a man with good talent. He is now 35 years old and has reached the peak of the Golden Core stage.
As for his personality, at least he had never heard of any bad side of him.
Of course, this was before. Now, he didn't dare to conclude that the other party was still a good person, but it had nothing to do with him.
Make friends, if it's a good thing, then become close friends; if it's a bad thing, then don't become friends with them anymore, and he won't lose anything.
Seeing that Li Mochen agreed, Long Qi was quite happy, so he took Li Mochen and Leng Xiaoyao to the best teahouse in Longgu City to drink tea.
"May I know what your name is, senior?" Long Qi asked.
"Li Mochen." Li Mochen said.
They had a cup of tea and talked happily, but things were not so good for Long Jiaojiao.
As soon as she returned to the Long family, Long Jiaojiao went to find the head of the Long family and confessed her crimes. However, because she was worried that Long Qi would tell the head of the Long family again, Long Jiaojiao did not dare to evade the main issue.
Patriarch Long looked confused.
He was not very clear about Long Jiaojiao's usual evil deeds, but he also knew that Long Jiaojiao was not a quiet person and often caused trouble. Therefore, he taught her a lot, but as the head of the family, he had a lot of things to do, so he didn't have much time to pay attention to her and the words and deeds of the children of the Long family.
But Long Jiaojiao's act of apologizing on her own initiative surprised him.
However, when he learned that she was caught by Long Qi and it was Long Qi who asked her to go home and apologize, he understood.
With such a serious incident happening, the head of the Long family naturally could not let her off easily, so he punished her by making her kneel in the ancestral hall for three days, confined her to her home for a month, and not allowed any cultivation resources within three months.
The Long family didn’t know what happened outside, but the news of Long Jiaojiao being punished spread throughout the Long family immediately, and Long Jiaojiao’s parents immediately went to find the head of the Long family.
"Brother, what's going on? Why are you suddenly punishing Jiaojiao to kneel in the ancestral hall for three days, confined to her room for a month, and not allowed to have any cultivation resources for three months? What on earth did Jiaojiao do that was so outrageous?" The second master Long, the younger brother of the head of the Long family, asked angrily.
"Do you think that if she hadn't caused any trouble, I would punish her for no reason?" said the head of the Long family coldly.
Mr. Long Er choked, but Mrs. Long Er felt a little guilty.
Although she didn't know what had happened, she was very clear about her daughter's personality and her usual behaviors, but she didn't think it was a big deal.
A young lady from the Long family should have the dignity and poise of a young lady from the Long family.
Although she is not the daughter of the head of the family, she is also a direct descendant of the Long family!
Because the second master Long is the brother of the head of the Long family!
She admitted that she was jealous of her eldest sister-in-law, the wife of the head of the family, so she deliberately indulged her daughter to show off the power of the Long family outside, so that everyone would know that she, Long Jiaojiao, is a direct descendant of the Long family.
"Then, what did Jiaojiao do?" asked Mr. Long Er. Although his eldest brother's words had already shown that Long Jiaojiao had indeed done something excessive, he still wanted to know.
The head of the Long family then told Master Long and his wife what Long Jiaojiao had confessed.
After hearing this, the couple dared not say anything. Although Master Long was eager to protect his daughter, he was not a person who could not distinguish right from wrong.
But Mrs. Long Er felt extremely unwilling.
Even if Long Jiaojiao fell in love with her and made up a few words, so what? Being liked by the young lady of the Long family is a blessing for the other party.
Besides, Jiaojiao didn't succeed, right? Why should she be punished?
Although Mrs. Long Er thought so, she didn't dare say it out loud.
However, the next words of the head of the Long family relieved Mrs. Long Er's resentment a lot.
"The other party calls himself this lord, so he must be Yuanying Zhenjun. A young man with such a high level of cultivation must have an extraordinary background, and his status and position are definitely not simple. Fortunately, Long Qi showed up and stopped the situation from getting worse. Jiaojiao apologized, and the other party didn't care. If the other party cared about it, he would have destroyed Jiaojiao's cultivation at that time. Even if he didn't destroy Jiaojiao, I'm afraid he would have needed to come forward to apologize in person as the head of the family. If that were the case, I'm afraid our Long family would be gossiped about." said the head of the Long family.
Yes, the dignity of the strong cannot be challenged. Once you have provoked and slandered them, even if they accuse you of being hypocritical, it is your own fault.
After hearing this, Mrs. Long Er felt frightened.
Although the Long family is one of the four major families in Guiyun Continent, it is not the strongest one. There are also three major sects and four royal families.
Even those second-rate families are not much weaker than their first-rate families.
The reason why people really fight is that they kill one thousand enemies and injure eight hundred of their own people.
In this case, Mr. Long and his wife had nothing more to say and could only leave in shame.
After Long Qi came back, he told his father what happened that evening and also told him about his friendship with Li Mochen.
"Who is the other party?" asked the head of the Long family.
"I didn't ask. It's our first meeting, so it's not appropriate to ask too much." Long Qi said.
"Well! It's not a bad thing to make friends with such a strong person." The head of the Long family strongly agreed with Long Qi making friends with the other party.
Leng Xiaoyao, after separating from Long Qi, also returned to Nan Weiyue's courtyard. Li Mochen sent her there before leaving.
Li Mochen didn't want to be separated from Leng Xiaoyao, but Leng Xiaoyao insisted on going back, so Li Mochen didn't try to keep him.
After Leng Xiaoyao returned to Nan Weiyue's residence, he asked Nan Weiyue directly: "Weiyue, I have something to tell you. Didn't you say that you wanted to enter Tiancheng Sect? I can take you in, but it's a bit risky. My Taoist partner used to be from Tiancheng Sect, but he has a deep hatred with the current Tiancheng Sect leader Lingfeng Zhenjun, so we have to go back to Tiancheng Sect to seek revenge."
