The ancient martial arts center of the Oriental family.
A young girl stood deep in the attic window, with a pair of light and transparent eyes, quietly staring at the ancient residence in front of her that occupied half of the city.
An Eastern family, a giant ancient martial arts sect.
The former Dongfang family was known as the backbone of the Chinese nation in the ancient martial arts world.
As long as the Dongfang family is here, China will be able to hold on to its last territory.
Countless martyrs from oriental families died on the battlefield in order to defend an inch of China's territory during China's thousands of years of war history, never to turn back.
And this half of the city is the biggest symbol of the Eastern Family's status in China.
Tens of thousands of members of the Dongfang family live in Yancheng.
It is only a hundred miles away from Shangjing, and only half a day away from the largest coastline port in the north.
It is adjacent to Xiashiao Jiuhe River in the north and the largest transportation hub in the east to the south.
She used to feel extremely proud and proud to be born in such a family.
Now, she stood at the highest position of the family station, overlooking the entire city, but she felt that the city was like a huge cage, locking people tightly inside, making it difficult to breathe.
"Miss, the person you want is here."
Just when Dongfang Yanran appeared, an old voice sounded.
She turned her head and watched the old man leading a man in black uniform over, nodded and said, "Go down."
After the old man left, the man knelt down and said, "Miss."
"Say." Dongfang Yanran spit out one word.
"We have sent people to search the sea area for four days, including the deep-sea search, and we have not found any traces of that person..."
The man's voice was very low, but he could feel the pressure he felt at this time.
"Have you searched all over?"
Dongfang Yanran looked at him calmly: "Are you sure you didn't miss any corner?"
"this……"
The man hesitated slightly. The vast ocean was still on the high seas. A week had passed, and he wanted to go back and look for a person who had no trace of him at all.
This is simply an impossible task.
But as Dongfang Yanran's confidants in the family, they still have to do it even if they know it's impossible.
But facing Dongfang Yanran's question, he didn't know how to answer it now.
In the vast ocean, how can we find one person without leaking every corner?
"My subordinates are incompetent!"
The man pressed his head heavily to the ground, not even daring to take a breath.
Dongfang Yanran looked down at him and sighed softly: "Forget it, I know it's me who has made it difficult for you. You have worked hard during this period. Everyone, go get the money from the house, and then take a vacation to rest."
"Miss..."
The man still wanted to persist.
"Go ahead, just say it's me who said it, and get your money and go back to rest. I have nothing to do here for the time being, and I don't need you."
After Dongfang Yanran finished speaking, she turned her head, looked into the distance, and stopped talking.
The man hesitated for a moment, and when he got up and walked down the stairs, he suddenly stopped and said, "I heard that Mr. Liu and the people from the Wu League set out for Japan yesterday."
"It is said that it was because of a Chinese man."
"The family takes this matter very seriously and strictly prohibits any leakage. I also accidentally learned about it from a friend of Mr. Liu..."
"I don't know if this news is of any use to the eldest lady. I'm just telling you that I hope the eldest lady won't take it to heart."
After the man finished speaking, there was the sound of footsteps leaving in a hurry.
Dongfang Yanran didn't respond until she saw the man's figure hurried away from the attic, and then she sighed deeply: "How many things are you hiding from me, and how long are you going to keep me locked up here?
