There is no way this big thing can be hidden from the old lady!

and!

It was related to the future and destiny of the Xiao family in the capital, and Xiao Hongtu didn't dare to hide it!

The sound spread into the attic.

However, Xiao Hongtu knelt outside the attic door for ten minutes, and the old lady in the attic never responded, as if she had not heard him.

"Mother, I..."

After another five minutes, Xiao Hongtu's knees felt a little sore. He couldn't help but raise his head and wanted to explain. The next moment, the old lady's deep voice finally came out: "Is that scoundrel so powerful now?

"

Bastard!

Of course I am talking about Xiao Zhan!

The old lady has always looked down on Xiao Zhan's mother Miao Xiangzhu, and has always opposed the marriage of mother Miao Xiangzhu and father Xiao Pojun. She has always felt that the marriage between the two is an evil fate!

And Xiao Zhan!

A child born from a bad fate is naturally a bad child in the eyes of the old lady!

Xiao Hongtu nodded and responded: "Under the perfect darkness, one can fight a hundred!"

"Even when faced with a strong person who has perfected the darkness, he still has the strength to defeat one against three!"

"I am afraid……"

"It has reached the peak of the Dark Realm, and is stronger than most of the perfect experts in the Dark Realm!"

"Unless this son dies, our Xiao family will never have peace!"

This is Xiao Hongtu’s judgment!

From the moment Xiao Zhan walked out of the Fourth Prison in Quancheng, Xiao Hongtu wanted to put Xiao Zhan to death. Dozens of Xiao family bodyguards left without returning, and then the battle at Black Eagle and Yong'an Mausoleum Cemetery was defeated!

Those two ancient men were defeated in the Battle of Nujiang!

This time, the two octogenarians led more than a hundred masters of the dark realm and rushed to Quancheng to strangle Xiao Zhan. However, the battle in Quancheng was still a complete defeat!

As the saying goes, the people who know you best are not your friends, but your enemies!

After fighting again and again and fighting again and again, Xiao Hongtu naturally had a deep understanding of Xiao Zhan's strength!

It even made him feel a little scared!

so!

Here he comes!

Come and report to the old lady!

I hope to get some advice from the old lady!

Just like an ordinary son who encounters difficulties and seeks help from his mother!

Later, Xiao Hongtu told the old lady his suspicions about Lin Qingyuan, and said in a deep voice: "This woman is cruel and ruthless, and she is known to be unparalleled in intelligence. She has nothing to do with this incident!"

"The Lin family in the capital is very ambitious. On the surface, they are on good terms with us, but in fact, they are secretly plotting. I am afraid they want to use Xiao Zhan's help to put our Xiao family into a situation that is beyond redemption!"

"We suffered heavy losses this time and our overall strength was greatly reduced. Even if we knew it was the Lin family who did it, there is nothing we can do against them!"

Just thinking about it makes me angry!

If we win the battle in Quancheng, then that's it. With the huge power of the Xiao family in the capital, they are not afraid of breaking up with the Lin family in the capital!

Unfortunately, it failed miserably!

Originally, the Xiao family in the capital had a total of five perfect dark masters and over two hundred dark masters, while the Lin family had only four perfect dark masters and about 150 dark masters.

In contrast, the Xiao family in Beijing has to dominate the Lin family!

And now!

Two of the perfect dark masters of the Xiao family in the capital died in the Battle of Nujiang, and more than half of the dark masters were lost in the Battle of Quancheng. Their strength was greatly reduced, and they were no longer a match for the Lin family!

It is definitely not a wise move to break up with the Lin family at this time!

"well……"

The old lady in the attic sighed and said, "You kid, you are still so impulsive. It's really disappointing."

"Now it seems that it was my fault for leaving the Xiao family to you."

Xiao Hongtu's heart skipped a beat.

His face suddenly turned pale.

What's the meaning?

Is the old lady trying to take back control of the Xiao family?

"Mother, actually I..."

"No need to say it."

Xiao Hongtu was anxious and wanted to defend himself, but was interrupted by the old lady: "The matter has reached this point, it is useless to say more."

"The top priority is to rectify the Xiao family and stabilize people's hearts."

The Battle of Quancheng resulted in over a hundred casualties. What Song Zeen said just now in front of the twenty Xiao family masters will definitely cause a huge sensation within the Xiao family!

Even anxious!

If we can't stabilize people's hearts in time, I'm afraid the Xiao family themselves will be in chaos before Xiao Zhan comes to the capital!

"yes!"

Xiao Hongtu nodded and asked: "What should we do with the Lin family?"

"Do you want me to go to Lin's house?"

The old lady asked, "What are you going to do?"

"I can't take this breath!"

Xiao Hongtu gritted his teeth and said: "I have asked Azhong to investigate in person. If I get evidence and it is confirmed that Lin Qingyuan is responsible, of course I will go to the Lin family and ask Lin Aobing for an explanation!"

Lin Aobing is the current head of the Lin family in Beijing!

Lin Qingyuan’s father!

He is about the same age and strength as Xiao Hongtu, and he is also in the middle stage of the Dark Realm!

The Xiao family, the Lin family in the capital, the Duan family in the provincial capital, and the Zhao family are basically all headed by middle-aged middle-aged people like Xiao Hongtu, Lin Aobing, Duan Mingzhe, and Zhao Jianxiong, who are in the middle of the Dark Realm!

The reason is actually very simple.

First of all, middle-aged people are energetic, calmer than young people, wiser than the elderly, their strength is neither high nor low, and with the support of their elders, they are enough to intimidate the younger members of the clan!

Come second!

Most people who have advanced to the late stage of the Dark Realm have already passed their 60th year. They need to devote all their energy to practice and hit the realm of perfection. Therefore, the elders in the clan are practicing in seclusion and do not bother to be the leader of the clan.

location!

The late stage of Dark Realm is a watershed!

For example, Xiao Hongtu, one day in the future, once he successfully advances to the late stage of the Dark Realm, he will also step down as the head of the family and go into seclusion for a long time!

As for the old lady...

is an exception!

Five years ago, when the old man of the Xiao family was still alive, he had passed the title of head of the family to Xiao Zhan's father, Xiao Pojun!

As a result, the old man died suddenly of illness!

After losing the support and protection of the old man, the old lady was already dissatisfied with Xiao Pojun, Miao Xiangzhu, and Xiao Zhan's family. Of course, she would not let Xiao Pojun continue to be in charge of the Xiao family!

So, decisively seize power!

After the tragedy five years ago, the old lady personally supported the Xiao family in the capital. It took her nearly three years to completely control everything in the Xiao family in the capital. She then went into seclusion and practiced cultivation, passing the title of head of the family to Xiao Hongtu!

But even if the throne is passed on, the old lady has not delegated power. She is still the one to make the final decision in all major matters!

Like the empress dowager who listens to politics behind the curtain!

Xiao Hongtu took the position of head of the family for free, but for more than two years, his position was not satisfactory. He could not do whatever he wanted, and he had to act based on the old lady's face.

The old lady’s words were like an imperial edict!

"What explanation do you want to ask for?"

The old lady's low but extremely majestic voice came from the air: "Given the current situation of the Xiao family, what kind of explanation can you get if you go?"

"It's just asking for humiliation."

This is true!

Although Xiao Hongtu understood in his heart, he just couldn't bear it and said unwillingly: "Is this the end of it?"
