3479 Long Jiaojiao Is Punished
Go! Li Mochen said. For someone who had ruined his reputation, even an apology wouldnt make him be nice to her. Not directly taking action against her was already considered lenient.
Go back and report it to Patriarch Long yourself. If you wait for me to talk to them when I return home, your punishment will be even more severe, Long Qi said coldly, unable to hide his disgust as he looked at Long Jiaojiao. He knew exactly what she had done.
Sure. Long Jiaojiao replied unwillingly, but dared not disobey. She then ran away in a hurry.
After Long Jiaojiao left, Long Qi apologized to Li Mochen. Senior, its due to the lack of discipline in the Long family that shes offended you. Please dont hold a grudge against the Long family because of that. Im Long Qi, the eldest son of the city lord of Dragon Bone City. I would like to befriend you if you are willing to. Would you like to have tea with me?
When Long Qi told them his ident.i.ty, he didnt mean to show off or be arrogant. His ident.i.ty was nothing in front of the strong.
Why not! Li Mochen agreed. As a former head of the Tiancheng Sect, he naturally knew what kind of family the Long family was and knew who Long Qi was.
Long Qi was also talented, with a bone age of thirty-five and a cultivation level at the peak of the Golden Core Stage.
As for his character, at least Li Mochen hadnt heard anything bad about him yet.
That was what he knew in the past. He couldnt be sure if Long Qi was still good, but it didnt matter to him.
If they got along well, they would become good friends. If not, then they wouldnt be close friends. He wouldnt lose anything either way.
Seeing Li Mochen agree, Long Qi was quite happy, so he took Li Mochen and Leng Xiaoyao to the best teahouse in Dragon Bone City for tea.
How should I call you, senior? Long Qi asked.
Li Mochen, said Li Mochen.
They chatted happily, but things didnt go well for Long Jiaojiao.
When she returned home, she went to confess her crimes to Patriarch Long. She didnt dare to downplay her actions because she was afraid that Long Qi would report it to Patriarch Long afterwards.
Patriarch Long was surprised.
Although he wasnt very clear about Long Jiaojiaos usual misdeeds, he knew that she wasnt well-behaved and often caused trouble. Therefore, he had criticized her many times, but as the patriarch, he had many things to do and didnt have much time to pay attention to the words and deeds of his children.
However, her confession surprised him this time.
When he learned that she was caught by Long Qi and sent back to repent, he understood everything.
Such a serious matter couldnt be easily forgiven by the Long family. Therefore, he punished her to kneel in front of the ancestral hall for three days, confined her for a month, and forbade her from using any cultivation resources within three months.
The Long family didnt know what had happened outside yet, but news of Long Jiaojiaos punishment spread quickly within the family. Her parents immediately went to see Patriarch Long.
Brother, whats going on? Why did Jiaojiao suddenly have to kneel in front of the ancestral hall for three days and be confined for a month? And why cant she use any cultivation resources within three months? What did Jiaojiao do? Patriarch Longs younger brother, Master Long, asked angrily.
Do you think I would punish her for no reason if she hadnt caused trouble? Patriarch Long said coldly.
Master Long was struck dumb, while his wife felt slightly guilty.
Although she didnt know what had happened exactly, she was very clear about her daughters character and actions. However, she didnt think that it was a big deal.
As a daughter of the Long family, she should have some prestige.
Although she wasnt the daughter of Patriarch Long, she was still a legitimate daughter of the Long family!
After all, Master Long was Patriarch Longs biological brother.
Junior Mrs. Long admitted that she was jealous of her sister-in-law, who was the wife of Patriarch Long. Therefore, she deliberately indulged her daughters arrogance outside and let everyone know that her daughter was the legitimate daughter of the Long family.
So what did Jiaojiao do? Master Long asked. Although his elder brothers words had already indicated that Long Jiaojiao had done something wrong, he still wanted to know what it was exactly.
Patriarch Long then told them about Long Jiaojiaos confession.
After hearing that, the couple dared not say anything. Although Master Long was very protective of his daughter, he wasnt a person who couldnt distinguish right from wrong.
However, Junior Mrs. Long felt extremely unhappy.
Even if Long Jiaojiao had taken a liking to someone and said a few wrong words, so what? It was the mans blessing to be liked by the daughter of the Long family.
Moreover, Jiaojiao didnt succeed, so why should she be punished?
Although Junior Mrs. Long thought so, she didnt dare to say it aloud.
However, what Patriarch Long said next eased Junior Mrs. Longs sense of injustice a lot.
The man claims to be a lord, then he must be at the Yuan Ying Period. Such a young man with such strong cultivation must have a remarkable background and status. Fortunately, Long Qi appeared and stopped the situation from deteriorating. Jiaojiao apologized and the man didnt pursue it further. If he did pursue it, even if Jiaojiaos cultivation was destroyed at that time, it would be understandable. Even if Jiaojiao wasnt deprived of her abilities, Im afraid I would have to apologize in person as the head of the family. If that were the case, the Long family would be criticized, Patriarch Long said.
It was true that the dignity of a strong person couldnt be challenged. If you provoked and slandered others, even if they deprived you of your abilities, it was your own fault.
After hearing that, Junior Mrs. Long felt scared.
Although the Long family was one of the four major families in Guiyun, they werent really the strongest. There were also three major sects and four royal families.
Even those second-rate families werent much weaker than them.
When they really fought, the result was often that they hurt themselves more than they hurt their enemies.
Therefore, Master Long and his wife had nothing to say and could only leave dejectedly.
After Long Qi came back, he also told his father about what happened this evening and his friends.h.i.+p with Li Mochen.
Whats his background? Patriarch Long asked.
I didnt ask. We just met for the first time, so its not good to ask too much, Long Qi said.
Well! Making friends with such a strong person isnt a bad thing. Patriarch Long agreed with Long Qis friends.h.i.+p with Li Mochen.
After parting ways with Long Qi, Leng Xiaoyao returned to Nan Weiyues house. Li Mochen had accompanied her until she arrived before leaving.
Li Mochen didnt want to part ways with Leng Xiaoyao, but Leng Xiaoyao insisted on going back, so Li Mochen gave up.
After returning to Nan Weiyues residence, Leng Xiaoyao asked her directly, Weiyue, there is something I want to tell you. Didnt you say you wanted to join the Tiancheng Sect? I can take you in, but its a bit risky. My Dao partner used to be a member of the Tiancheng Sect, but he has a deep hatred for its current leader, Immortal Ling Feng. So were going back to Tiancheng Sect for revenge.
