C1496 The Situation in the Xiao Family Was Very Complicated
Everyone on the ground felt a chill run down their spines. They did not think that 'Xiao Qiufeng' could really defeat Xiao Yangxu. Not only did Xiao Yangxu lower his cultivation, he had also been suppressing Xiao Yangxu.
"Second Granduncle, how is it? My Qiu Feng hasn't disappointed you, right?" Xiao Mohui had confidence now, and asked loudly.
Xiao Meng Yue said in a low voice: "You're quite smart, but your cultivation is still too low. If you don't make progress in the future, I will still share this story with my brothers."
"That's only natural. This time, I'll definitely make this brat train diligently!" Xiao Mohui said.
The expulsion of the eldest grandson of the sect seemed to have been temporarily suppressed. Although the undercurrents were surging, on the surface, Xiao Meng Yue wouldn't say anything for a short period of time.
After all, on the surface, they still had to maintain the clan's stability and harmony. Xiao Mengyue then invited Xiao Mohui and the others to the Inner Palace for a feast.
Xiao Mozheng and the rest also followed him into the hall. It was as if they were all drinking together and no one could tell how tense the atmosphere was just now.
After drinking for half a year, the topic of conversation began to increase.
However, Yang Chen did not have the intention to interrupt him. He would definitely lose something if he talked too much, he drank his wine while feeling bored. This wine was quite boring, as if it was brewed with the spirit fruits from the fantasy world; although it had the effect of replenishing qi, Yang Chen felt that the concentration of spirit energy in the illusion world did not have any meaning at all.
Suddenly, Xiao Meng Yue's words made Yang Chen tense up.
"Mo Hui, I heard that the Luo Family has captured Xiao Zhiqing. Is that true?"
Yang Chen immediately focused his attention as he didn't expect to hear anything related to Xiao Zhiqing.
Xiao Mohui stopped drinking and glanced playfully at Xiao Mozheng who did not react at all. He said: "It's not wrong to have sent the news. "I don't know how she got the information, but Luo Qianqiu ordered Luo Hang to personally go out and capture her."
"That's good. The Luo Clan has always held onto the matter of this marriage, and refused to let go of our Xiao Clan. After meeting our disciples in the Snowy Mountains twice, they fought for us on this matter, saying that our Xiao Clan was untrustworthy and took the betrothal gift for free, causing our clan's disciples to not dare to act rashly." They are simply going too far! " Xiao Meng Yue snorted coldly.
"Ai, second uncle, I also did not expect this bitch to have such guts." Saying that, Xiao Mohui squinted at Xiao Mozheng, and said: "Second brother, you really didn't teach your daughter well back then.
"Even though she was born from a wild woman in the mortal world, she still carries the bloodline of our Xiao family. If every child is as unreasonable as her and dares to disobey the orders of the family, then wouldn't our Xiao family be a mess?"
Xiao Mozheng raised his head without a single trace of anger. He humbly nodded with a smile and said, "Brother's teachings are correct. It's a pity that that evil girl is no longer at home. Otherwise, I would definitely teach her a lesson!"
"Humph, we have lost so many times to the Luo Family because of her. The Luo Family was always stronger than us, and they even took advantage of us. Do you know how angry father is? If it wasn't for your big brother helping you suppress it, you would have already been confined! "
Xiao Mohui seemed to have vented his anger ruthlessly because of what happened just now, scolding Xiao Mozheng until he could not even raise his head.
Xiao Mozheng did not retort and nodded.
In the end, Xiao Mohui was complacent, and didn't forget to put on an act of self-blame, "It was also because I trusted your brother too much, and thought that you could do a good job with your daughter, that's why I proposed to father that she should marry Luo Hua.
But who would've thought that when she looked at her soft and weak appearance, she actually had the wild nature of a lowly mortal woman in her bones. Perhaps she was following her worldly biological mother? "
Xiao Mengyue interrupted him and said, "Don't regret it. Don't blame everyone else. Although Xiao Zhiqing, this naughty girl, has caused our Xiao Family quite a bit of trouble, her Nine Yin Meridians have also helped us test out no less than a hundred kinds of Poison pill, so we were not able to raise her for nothing. "
"What second uncle said is right, it's a pity that it's going to be given to the Luo family to use. Now that I think about it, it's really a loss to give such a good testing tool to the Luo family. We should ask for more betrothal gifts from them." Xiao Mohui said with regret.
"Haha, old man, you are bullying the Luo Family too much. That bitch Xiao Zhiqing, although she is useful for testing medicine, her Nine Yin Meridians are deepening and she won't be able to live for many years.
Instead of dying in the family for a few years, she might as well live on it and give it to the Luo family for a few years, in exchange for some magical equipment and pills. "On the contrary, we're making even more money. This is a good deal that this grandpa planned for us to do." An elder pursued.
Xiao Mohui enjoyed it, waving his hands to show that he was flattered, but did not try to hide it.
Yang Chen heard these words and almost crushed the table in front of him. He tried his best to restrain himself.
No wonder the Xiao family was willing to give Xiao Zhiqing to the Luo family.
Indeed, if it weren't for the fact that she met him, Xiao Zhiqing's poison would have flared up one day abroad and she would have perished …
Thinking that it was Xiao Mohui and the others who planned all of this, Xiao Mozheng, the biological father, turned a blind eye to it and wanted to "teach" Xiao Zhiqing a lesson … Yang Chen felt a surge of anger, wanting to kill all of the Xiao Clan disciples present!
However, reason still forced him to endure. There was still a lot of time in the future, and after he rescued his women, he would sooner or later let them have a taste of being looked down upon.
After leaving the Second Granduncle's family, they had finally completed their patrol and returned to the Xiao family.
Xiao Mozheng, on the other hand, continued to lead others to investigate the spirit medicine. They didn't have the same path.
Once he returned home, Yang Chen was immediately summoned by Xiao Mohui to his room.
Xiao Mohui seemed to have something heavy on his mind, and his expression was extremely ugly.
"Qiufeng, your father doesn't know how you cultivate, but seeing your progress today, I feel rather gratified. However, your speed is still too slow. In the future, you will have to work several times harder than you currently do. At least, before the three great families meet in the next year's Martial Competition, you will reach the end of the last stage of the Li Huo competition.
Yang Chen thought, "I'll go with you. I'm about to leave anyway, so I nodded obediently."
Xiao Mohui said with a dark expression: "That Second Uncle of yours finally couldn't hold it in anymore. I never thought that he would actually be able to collude with that Second Uncle, that old cunning fox … Heh heh, it's a pity that your grandfather is already prepared for him. He thinks that we don't know their sneaky tricks. "
Yang Chen pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Father, did they do something long ago?"
Xiao Mohui looked at him with satisfaction and sighed: "I originally thought you only knew how to play with those women, but you don't seem to be that unskilled and could endure. At least you've matured, so it's fine if I tell you.
Actually, your second uncle has been in private with second uncle and often sent some spirit materials over to their home to secretly refine pill. Your grandfather only turned a blind eye to these matters and didn't want the conflict to become clear.
"However, we do not know how they colluded with each other. There are indeed many second uncle's family with extremely high talents. If they were to recklessly punish them, it might affect the family's strength."
Yang Chen thought that this Xiao Meng Yu could really tolerate his son betraying him, so he didn't try to stop him.
"Father, doesn't this increase their strength? What if they come and attack us? " Yang Chen acted like he was afraid.
"Hmph, what are you afraid of!" Xiao Mohui sneered, "No matter how powerful that old man Xiao Mengyue is, he can't compare to your grandfather. Your grandpa has already reached the middle stage of the Weak Water, so he could enter the late stage of the Weak Water at any time. That's why he has been in seclusion recently in search of a breakthrough.
Moreover, we still have the Xu Family's Xu Shaogong supporting us. With the Xu Family standing on our side, the other branch family members will act based on their expressions.
When you're fifty, you might be able to stand firm even if you're at the True Samadhi stage. Moreover, you still have your father in front of you, so they can't stop you from inheriting your father's legacy, right? "
Yang Chen thought that shouldn't the Xu family stand on Xiao Mozheng's side? Xu Yanan was still the Second Madam, could it be... There was something more to it?
Thinking about the matter between Xiao Manyan and Xiao Qiufeng, Yang Chen suddenly thought of something and muttered to himself, This family is really chaotic …
When he came out of Xiao Mohui's room, Yang Chen thought for a while and went straight to where the Zhao siblings were.
Not to say goodbye to them. Instead, he thought that if he left, it might cause them to not be able to get any high quality pills, so he might as well use his identity as Xiao Qiufeng to give them one.
For the past half month, Zhao Moyang and Zhao Ting had been worried and shocked by Xiao Chen's absence. Lan Fei had also looked for them twice, but he didn't understand why a living person disappeared so quickly.
After the last spar between Lan Fei and Zhao Muyang, they had become good friends. Both of them had good characters, and felt like they could find a good friend.
When Yang Chen arrived at the Zhao siblings' residence, he saw Lan Fei sparring with Zhao Muyang. The fights went back and forth, but of course, Zhao Muyang had suppressed his cultivation.
When they saw "Xiao Qiufeng", the three of them immediately came to salute him. They were a little apprehensive and felt that there was definitely nothing good going on.
Yang Chen did not waste any time on idle talk. He had prepared two elixirs, one high grade, three middle grade and more than a dozen low grade elixirs. He had treated it as a parting gift for these few people who had met by chance.
When Yang Chen delivered these elixir pills, which meant nothing to him, to the three of them, both Lan Fei and the Zhao siblings were scared silly.
