Chapter 173: Holidays in Turmoil and Hogsmeade

Draco was very emotional at this time: "In that circle, the only Slytherins are Pansy and Daphne! Other families like Neville and Hannah are not the same as us. I won't talk about the members of other small families and foreign friends. But there are disgusting mudbloods there! Father, this is simply unbearable! Where is the glory of our Malfoy family? Where is the blood of our Malfoy family?"

"Draco, you really disappoint me!" Lucius was rarely angry, "You don't understand what it means to be a qualified descendant of the Malfoy family! Remember what he said when you attended Yang Tian's birthday party? The Malfoy family itself has mixed-blood descendants!"

Completely ignoring Draco's collapsed outlook, Lucius continued to roar, "A true descendant of the Malfoy family must be wise and judge the situation! What is pure-blood glory? It is just a key to integrate into the pure-blood circle. When the Dark Lord is strong, we are staunch pure-bloods; when Muggles are strong, we are not afraid to become friends with them. The prosperity of the family is the key!"

"Okay, I've explained the interests involved very clearly! Let's proceed as planned after school starts. I've already reached a deal with Hector, and Pansy will provide you with appropriate assistance." After saying that, Lucius left quietly.

This speech completely confused Draco. He stood there in silence for a long time. Perhaps from this moment on, he began to understand what a real Malfoy should do...

A similar scene also took place in the Longbottom family's ancestral home, and Neville's conversation with his grandmother Augusta Lombard seemed unpleasant.

"Grandma, Yang Tian is my best friend in Hogwarts, why can't I invite him to my home?" This was the first time Neville spoke to his grandmother in a questioning tone. Although he was still a little timid, his dissatisfaction was clearly expressed.

"Neville, I think I have made it clear to you. That kid is not as simple as he seems. He is very dangerous. You should stay away from him!" Augusta said sternly as always.

"No, Yang Tian didn't say the same thing as you said. He taught me to be strong, to be hardworking, to fight... too much. He taught me so many things. Without him, perhaps I wouldn't even have the courage to make my first bottle of potion; perhaps my poor academic performance would have crushed me long ago; perhaps now I'm still being laughed at and looked down upon by my classmates... and the danger you mentioned, I'm sorry, I don't feel it at all!" Neville was struggling hard.

"I never thought that in just a few months, my Neville has learned to talk back. This little guy named Yang Tian is really capable." Augusta responded with increasing dissatisfaction.

"Grandma, no matter what you say, I am speaking based on the facts I have seen; I am not like you, speculating about others with arrogance and prejudice. Yang Tian is my friend, no, he is my brother! He was, is, and will be!" Neville seemed to have exhausted all his strength to say this, his tone was heavy, but very sure. He stood up clumsily, but still did not forget to salute grandma, and then turned away...

"Ah, I have to say, that child is really puzzling. He completely captured my grandson in such a short time." Looking at his grandson going away, Augusta muttered helplessly: "But whether you are a real little devil or there is another secret, it will not prevent you from being like a disaster. Wherever you are, there is danger. The only flesh and blood of the Longbottom family should not be placed in danger..."

......

The turmoil in the wizarding world eventually affected Foley Manor. Yang Tian, ​​who had originally planned to take a complete vacation, was forced to resume business, but there were some things he was still willing to do.

For example, he secretly met with Humbert and Bradan who had infiltrated the Ministry of Magic, and planned a series of subsequent promotions. After all, with Madam Zabini and several other strong supporters, it would not be difficult to get promoted one or two levels without exposing their backgrounds.

Of course, Yang Tian would not forget Rameses and Peregrine, both of whom were really capable. Ever since he entered the Forley family's store in Diagon Alley, he had been making steady progress, and after two years of hard work, he had made many friends. After repeated screening, there were indeed three or four good friends who had the potential to become Nightmare's new blood. Although there were not many of them, they were reliable. If they could experience one or two more actual combat missions, I believe they could also enter Nightmare's reserve force, right?

In addition, accompanied by his parents, Yang Tian visited the Greengrass family, the Zabini family, the Lestrange family, the Parkinson family in turn... demonstrating his closeness to each of the major families.

Meng Mengjiao's report also showed that the alliance plan was being implemented very smoothly! Especially the idea of ​​a kindergarten in the Muggle world was praised as a stroke of genius by everyone involved in the conspiracy; the mysterious and great wizard also caused a huge wave in the wizarding world, and everything was developing in a good direction...

Now that everything was stable, Yang Tian would not be particularly concerned about the development of this alliance. Madam Zabini, Kayla, and Sallys, any one of his three new capable subordinates was a brilliant person. They were capable, skillful, well-connected, and loyal...what else could he not let go of? And when necessary, the Fry family and the Greengrass family would not just sit there and watch, right?

Thinking about the nightmare of hiding here and there, and looking at the good situation in front of him, Yang Tian smiled confidently! How long has it been? In another year or two, I will make you, Sarok, pay the price!

......

Although the vacation is wonderful, it is short after all. In the blink of an eye, the time to go back to school is approaching.

Yang Tian did not return to school on the Hogwarts train, but arrived at Hogsmeade Village with the Yang family's main force one day in advance. This was unavoidable, as he needed to preside over the handover of work between Elder Xia and Elder Li in advance.

After all, Old Xia stayed in Hogsmeade for more than a month, and during that time he and the young master fought against Sarok twice. Old Li was almost crying with envy...

The Yang family team quickly entered a property on the edge of Hogsmeade Village. This was not the residence of Xia Lao and others, but a secret property of the Greengrass family in Hogsmeade Village. Xia Lao had come with such a grand momentum before, so their residence was naturally well known to everyone.

Before, they were outside the storm circle, doing minor things, but now the situation has changed suddenly, the new alliance has emerged, and the Fuli family has also come to the foreground and the center of the storm by relying on the changes in the relationship between all parties. As the station of the guard team of Yang Tian, ​​a descendant of the Fuli family, it will definitely be watched by countless eyes, which is too conspicuous...

After entering the station, everyone just settled down for a while, and Meng Mengjiao flew out to report the news. About ten or twenty minutes later, Xia Lao, Cai Yuliangyu, Wu Chi, Eulalia, and an old man from China who had never been seen before entered the building one after another.

After not seeing each other for a long time, everyone couldn't help but exchange greetings. Elder Xia and Elder Li were so excited that they patted each other's shoulders vigorously. Perhaps only they themselves knew what they had been carrying all these years.

Caiyu would not just sit there and watch the two elders sigh, but introduced Yang Tian: "Young Master, this is the torture expert we transferred from the Punishment Hall, nicknamed Grass Snake."

Yang Tian always respected his family members, and he quickly stepped forward to greet them; the grass snake also quickly bowed in return...
