Chapter 0107 Dissolution of the engagement(1/2)
"Then wait." Xizhe said this with a calm expression, then closed his eyes and rested. His fingers twisted a series of valuable gloomy golden nanmu, and the sound of a low wooden bead collision sounded.
This wait took about ten minutes.
Some people were already dissatisfied, but they didn't say anything. They held their breath and looked at Xi Longtao with a sneer on the corner of their mouths.
Xixuan is your daughter of Xi Longtao. She dares to let the lord and everyone wait for so long. It’s such a great deal of face!
Master, I am not the one who likes to wait for others! Now I look calm, and I might be able to erupt in a volcano later!
However, Xi Longtao's expression was as calm as water, as if he was unaware of many eyes.
Waiting, another five minutes passed.
Finally someone couldn't help it, and said with a loud voice: "Long Tao, Xiaoxuan has always been a sensible child. When did she become so ignorant? What does it mean to let everyone wait for her alone for so long?"
The man who spoke was agitated and was one of Xi Longtao's three cousins, named Xi Jinyi, and had a rough face. However, everyone here knew that this roughness was just for others to see, otherwise even if he had the orthodox bloodline of Xi'an, he would not be qualified to sit here.
As soon as he opened his mouth, Xi Youdao, another cousin of Xi Longtao who looked gentle, nodded slightly at this time, looked at Xizhe with a closed eye, and said warmly: "Master, although everyone has finally been able to get together, they all have their own things to be busy with. If it is not related to Xiaoxuan, you might as well say something now."
Xi Zhe, who had been closing his eyes and resting, did not open his eyes, but said lightly: "The matter has nothing to do with Xiaoxuan, but I'd better wait. This matter is worth waiting for."
This matter is worth waiting for!
Except for Xi Longtao who was still calm, the rest of the people couldn't help but show their emotions and were aroused by a strong curiosity - what exactly is it that Xi Zhe, who is the owner of Xi Valve, is waiting without complaint?
Moreover, this matter has nothing to do with Xixuan? Who is it related to?
After waiting full of doubt and curiosity, another three minutes passed.
Finally, the door suddenly opened and two people appeared at the door.
Xi Zhe, who had closed his eyes and rested for a long time, slowly opened his eyes.
Swish!
In an instant, everyone's eyes fell on the face of one of the two people walking in!
Xi Mengyan!
Many people couldn't help but look very wonderful, and they stared at each other, almost thinking that they had read it wrong!
How could it be her?
The emergence of Xi Mengyan subverted their previous expectations, because no one would think about this!
Immediately, someone remembered what the lord said just now - the matter has nothing to do with Xiaoxuan!
It really has nothing to do, because the person they were waiting for was not Xixuan at all, but Xi Mengyan!
But if it was Xi Mengyan, what else would happen to her? As the owner of the sect said, "It's worth waiting for everyone"?
Lin Gang bowed slightly, then walked back without saying a word and brought the door with him.
Xi Mengyan walked into the hall in this strange silence, then bowed slightly to the owner of Xi Valve and said, "I'm sorry, I'm late."
Before the owner of the lord Xizhe could speak, a slightly sharp and sarcastic voice sounded: "I'm sorry? Haha, it's really a very heavy word. It's made so many of us wait for you alone, and even more so that the owner of the lord waited for you for so long... Xi Mengyan, why didn't I see before that you had such a great face? Could it be that it was because I knew that I was going to marry Ning Chen that I became so amazing?"
When Xi Longtao heard this, he looked like an old monk sitting still, his expression still.
Xi Pingzhi raised his eyebrows hard, and a violent flashed between his eyebrows, his face became much darker, but he refused to speak.
Because in terms of identity, the woman who is talking is his elder, and in the Xijun family, disrespect to her elders is a sin.
Why is he disrespectful? Because Xipingzhi knew that he would be unable to help but curse himself when he opened his mouth, and naturally he would be extremely disrespectful.
The woman who spoke, who looked middle-aged, had a beautiful face, but she put on heavy makeup inappropriately. Her thin lips looked a little mean. Naturally, she was his cousin, Xiying, who was also one of the evil hands who pushed Xi Mengyan to marry Ningjia!
Xipingzhi always has complex emotions about Xi Mengyan, the god sister. On the one hand, he resisted seeing the shadow of the young girl who died prematurely from her, and on the other hand, he couldn't help but gradually regard her as a real relative as time goes by.
But no matter what, Xi Mengyan is a very important person to Xi Pingzhi!
If he hadn't learned the deep reason behind the marriage from his father, how could he have watched her marry someone he didn't like like like this!
Although he is powerless to change anything, it does not prevent Xiping from hating the mastermind behind the scenes, including Xiying!
However, Xipingzhi, who restrained the anger in his chest, felt a vague feeling. Today, this matter might become more interesting, just because the words the owner just told me were very meaningful... The little sister has the value of being waiting for by everyone!
Xi Mengyan didn't say anything about Xiying's accusations, and didn't even look at the former.
This thorough neglect made Xiying, who had always thought that she was important in the Xiquan, feel a sense of humiliation of being slapped in the face in public. The joking gazes around her made her feel like a needle. She immediately sneered with a somewhat ugly face, but looked at Xi Longtao with a sarcastic tone: "Long Tao, it's not that I am a cousin who talks too much. Some people are not your biological parents, but since they have the surname Xi, they have to be raised as their biological parents, right? Otherwise, if they marry to Ningjia after a while, they don't understand the rules, others would think that our Xiquan is just like this..."
Xi Longtao's lips moved slightly, and finally spoke, with a faint coldness: "How to educate his children is my own business, and I don't think Mengyan has done something bad. On the contrary, I have always been proud of her. In addition, although she is not my biological child, I always feel that she is a real relative. Unlike some people, although the same blood as me in their bodies, they only know how to sarcastic and intrigue all day long, and they want to kick all their families out of their own hands to control Xi Jun."
"You! You're talking nonsense!" Xi Ying's face suddenly became extremely shocked and angry, and she quickly glanced at Xi Zhe, the owner of the calm face.
Xi Longtao's words were much more slapped in the face than Xi Mengyan's complete ignorance just now, and it can be said to be heartbroken!
However, many people present secretly complained about their pleasure.
There is no doubt that Xiying herself has extremely strong abilities. Although she is a daughter, she is a veritable strong woman. She almost supported the overall management of most of Xiquan's various undertakings with her own strength, and contributed her entire youth and all her energy to Xiquan's future, and she is still unmarried.
However, as she grew older, Xiying's temper seemed to become more and more perverse, and she seemed to be unpleasant in the Xishi family. To put it simply, it seemed to be a bit like entering menopause, which naturally aroused the disgust of many people.
Although she didn't really believe that Xiying had the idea of an empty valve owner taking charge of Xi'an, she felt a little relieved when she saw that she was defeated.
"Okay, I'll say less. It's rare to get together. Is it just to see you quarrel?" The calm voice of the owner of the valve, Xizhe, sounded, and there was a deep majesty, which made the hall suddenly silence.
Immediately, Xizhe looked at Xi Mengyan, and a kind smile suddenly appeared on his face, and said in a gentle tone: "Sit down and talk. The First Military Academy is far away from this place, so it is normal to be late."
Did you laugh? The master of the valve actually laughed?
Except for Xi Longtao, the others stared at each other.
You should know that in their impression, although Xi Zhe, the head of the sanctuary, is very extraordinary in terms of cultivation and ability to control the sanctuary, he is standardized and serious, and does not show his emotions. Even if he rarely expresses warmth to his son, he is often a little bit of praise. Most of the time, a light praise can make Xi Landu excited for a long time.
And now, what's going on with this kind of gentle and joyful look that goes against one's nature?
Shouldn't she be furious because she was late for so long? Where did the promised Thunder anger go?
As Xi Landu, as Xi Zhe's biological son, couldn't help but clench his palms into fists, and his eyes fell directly on Xi Mengyan's calm and peaceful face.
Although he didn't understand what was going on, his intuition told him that something big happened that he didn't know happened, and it happened to Xi Mengyan!
And this matter should have nothing to do with her and Ning Chen’s marriage!
Not to mention that Xi Mengyan is going to marry Ning Chen, even if she marry Ning Buzhou, the current Ningval master, it is not worthy of her father's generous attitude!
I can't figure it out, I can't figure it out no matter how hard it is!
With many shocked eyes, Xi Mengyan bowed slightly to Xizhe again, and then sat down next to Xipingzhi.
Xipingzhi was full of questions, but unfortunately his martial arts qualifications were really average and he could not transmit the voice, otherwise he would have to send the voice secretly at this time.
"Okay, the meeting will start now." Xi Zhe said slowly, his eyes falling on Xi Longtao's face, and said, "Longtao, please tell me."
Are you finally going to reveal the truth? Everyone who has been stolen for a while has been excited at this time.
Xi Longtao smiled slightly and said, "This is a bit incredible, but I think Mengyan doesn't need to lie... What I want to say is that the little girl Mengyan, because of some special circumstances, the root bones she now have are the ninth grade of water attributes!"
Dead silence!
Except for Xi Zhe who had learned about it in advance, everyone else was completely stunned by Xi Longtao's words and widened their eyes very uniformly.
"Water, water attribute ninth grade?" Xipingzhi turned his head and looked blankly at his calm-faced sister.
And at this moment, a sharp voice suddenly sounded: "This is impossible!"
Swish!
Xiying stood up and stared at Xi Mengyan completely out of control, shouting: "Lie! She must be lying! She has always been a metal sixth grade, how could it be turned into a water-attribute ninth grade? It would be fine to improve the root bone level, but how could it even change the root bone attribute? This is absolutely impossible!"
Her screaming and speaking words shocked some people present. They also remembered that Xi Mengyan's original root bone was metallic, so how could it become water? It is unheard of for a while to change the root bone property!
However, it was precisely because of such a ridiculous thing that the master of the valley made this emergency summon... Some people found that the hair on their bodies stood up.
Ignoring Xiying, Xi Longtao said indifferently: "Since everyone doesn't believe it, you might as well test it now to know if I'm lying."
Some people who were already suspicious had a thrill of heart!
Could it be that this is true?
The thought that immediately emerged was that if Xi Mengyan really had such a terrifying root, then her marriage with Ning Chen would be 100% gone!
Xishi, he would not give up someone with such a terrifying martial arts talent who is so terrifying that he can compare with Ning Chen!
Even though Xi Mengyan has no Xiguan bloodline in her body!
With different thoughts, everyone moved to a very spacious and luxurious training room, surrounded by a bone detector.
"Let's start." The eyes of the lord Xizhe were also a little uneasy.
If it weren't for Xi Longtao's words of swearing on the phone, he wouldn't have activated this emergency summon.
However, from the bottom of his heart, he still felt that this matter was too incredible and unbelievable!
Unless...seeing is true!
"To prove that this root bone detector has not been passive, let me test it first." Xipingzhi suddenly said.
"Okay." Xizhe looked at Xiping's eyes with a little admiration, and his heart moved slightly.
Speaking of which, I have overlooked this nephew in the past. Although my martial arts qualifications are a little poor, my business talent is not inferior to Xiying. The improved patent for the bone detector that I got from some unknown place recently has brought considerable returns to Xi Valve. I have signed several sky-high contracts with the Eastern Federal Government. In the evaluation, this is only about one-tenth of the return of that patent, and its development prospects can involve multiple industry fields.
Once properly arranged, the root system of Xishi's foothold will undoubtedly be further deepened into the Eastern Federation and even the entire human world.
To be continued...
