The Reborn Aristocrat's Daughter-Chapter 242: Spiritual Spring (1)_1

As he walked, Loo Jie teased Situ Xin, "Baby, as the Dragon Society’s Young Miss, you really carry quite an aura of authority. But what exactly did you do to make everyone in the Dragon Society show so much respect towards you?"

Old Master Situ and Old Master Loo just mentioned to them Situ Xin’s relationship with the Dragon Society, without going into specifics. And despite having heard things about the Dragon Society’s Young Miss, Situ Haotian and the others only knew what Situ Xin was willing to let others know.

Before Situ Xin could reply, Situ Che shot Loo Jie a look that made him swallow the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

Watching the interaction between her two brothers, Situ Xin couldn’t help but cover her mouth in a sneaky chuckle. Their two families were still ruled by Situ Che, the Big Brother. Not only was Loo Jie afraid of him, but so were Situ Jin and the newly born Loo Bun, all of whom feared Situ Che.

The moment Situ Xin and the others stepped through the doors of the Dragon Society’s headquarters, Xia Yujie, along with Liu Yuxiang and Situ Muli, were already waiting there. "Master, you’re finally here. I thought you had forgotten about us," Liu Yuxiang, seeing Situ Xin after such a long absence, couldn’t help but complain with a tinge of sourness.

"Liu Yuxiang, I think I better visit the Dragon Society less often, otherwise I might really have to watch your skin," joked Situ Xin, who was in a good mood today. However, what Situ Xin said was true. Liu Yuxiang kept calling her "Master," and as a half-true, half-false master, she had to teach her disciple some real skills.

Otherwise, if this nominal disciple went out and got bullied, it would reflect poorly on her reputation. Hence, when Situ Xin visited the Dragon Society, she would always give some guidance to Xia Yujie and Liu Yuxiang. And every time, they would end up a little worse for wear after her ’lessons.’

But they actually enjoyed it, because they discovered that each time after Situ Xin’s guidance, their abilities would step up to the next level.

"Miss," Xia Yujie and Situ Muli greeted Situ Xin with proper respect when they saw her.

Situ Muli breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Situ Xin. Just earlier, when he was upstairs and heard from Xia Yujie that Situ Xin was coming, he let out a deep breath. Ever since Baibai had brought him to the Dragon Society, he hit it off with Xia Yujie and Liu Yuxiang. These past few days, they had been training together, chatting, and discussing all sorts of things. One could say these had been the happiest and most relaxed days of his life. But even so, his heart was constantly preoccupied with thoughts of Situ Xin.

Ever since the return from Xiangjiang, Situ Muli had been anxiously waiting for Situ Xin’s arrival. As time slipped away, his heart started to grow restless, fearing that Situ Xin might have forgotten about him. Fortunately, now, Situ Xin had shown up.

"Okay," nodded Situ Xin to Xia Yujie and Situ Muli, then said, "Let’s go upstairs to talk." Situ Xin had initially planned to introduce Situ Che and Loo Jie to Xia Yujie and the other two, but seeing the crowded and noisy lobby downstairs, which was not a suitable place for conversation, she suggested they talk upstairs instead.

"Everyone, please take a seat." Upon reaching Xia Yujie’s office upstairs, Situ Xin casually chose a seat and sat down, then seeing everyone still standing, gestured for them all to sit. "Don’t stand on ceremony, everyone. Now, let me introduce you to each other."

Situ Xin pointed to Situ Che and Loo Jie and introduced them to Xia Yujie and the others, saying, "These are my two brothers, Situ Che and Loo Jie."

"This is the boss of the Dragon Society, Xia Yujie, and this is his brother, Liu Yuxiang." No sooner had Situ Xin finished introducing Liu Yuxiang when he boldly said to Situ Che and Loo Jie, "I am also a disciple of my master."

No sooner had Liu Yuxiang finished his words than Situ Xin gave him a hard look, then continued introducing, "And this is Situ Muli." Hearing the name Situ Muli, both Situ Che and Loo Jie’s expressions flickered with surprise, finding it odd that Situ Muli also bore the Situ surname.

Even though not everyone with the surname Situ belonged to their family and it was quite a rare name globally, Situ Che and Loo Jie found it a bit strange, though they didn’t let it show on their faces.

Upon Situ Xin’s introduction, aside from the odd one out, Liu Yuxiang, the other three were of the silent type. In a sense, they were the dark horse type, and the four of them merely nodded to each other as a greeting.

Situ Xin knew the temperaments of these four people, so she just sighed inwardly. She did not expect that they would interact with each other as warmly as they did with her.

"Master, did you come this time for Situ Muli?" Liu Yuxiang was never good at hiding his thoughts in front of Situ Xin, speaking candidly only in front of his family, Xia Yujie, and Situ Xin, with no hidden agenda. But in front of outsiders, Liu Yuxiang could be quite the sly character—one had to be careful not to fall prey to his schemes.

"One reason is Situ Muli, the other is that I have something to share with you, and incidentally to introduce my family so we all recognize our own in the future," said Situ Xin with a smile.

"Right, it’s good to get acquainted to avoid friendly fire," Xia Yujie chimed in following Situ Xin’s words and then turned to Situ Che and Loo Jie, saying, "Since you are the young lady’s family, you are also my friends. If you encounter any problems in the future that can’t be dealt with openly, you can come to me. Also, if there’s any intelligence you need to know, you can inquire with me." Xia Yujie’s words would later bring great convenience to Situ Che and Loo Jie.

"Thanks," said Situ Che and Loo Jie, their expressions becoming much more earnest.

"If you have any issues you can’t resolve, feel free to come to us," Situ Xin thought, listening to the interaction between Situ Che, Loo Jie, and Xia Yujie. This must be what they called giving favors and returning courtesies.

"Oh come on, why does it seem like it’s all formalities and pleasantries? We’re all family here. In the future, we’ll just help each other out," Liu Yuxiang interjected impatiently. However, when he turned to look at Situ Xin, his demeanor changed to one of sucking up, asking her genially, "Master, what’s the matter you wanted to talk about?"

"Oh, it’s about letting you know that I’m about to undertake a mission for The Dark Division. The Dark Division, I believe you’ve heard of them?" Situ Xin vaguely recalled hearing Xia Yujie mentioning The Dark Division before, but she couldn’t remember why he brought it up at that time.
