Sitting down at a place that had been arranged, everyone started chatting in lowered voices.
Rong Jielin said softly: "Kaixuan, those sitting on top are the clan leader and the four elders of the clan."
Rong Kaixuan's heart moved slightly and he asked: "Grandpa, how many elders are there in the family?"
"There are six clan elders in total." Rong Jielin said solemnly: "In addition to your great grandfather and clan elder Jie Xuan, there are also elders Rong Jiexiang clan and Rong Jiehan clan elder sitting on top." He paused and said:
"Jiehan is always the only woman in the family who has reached the innate level."
Rong Kaixuan nodded slightly. He naturally knew that in the process of cultivation, strong men often have a huge advantage, while the number of the strongest women is often much inferior.
"Grandpa, where are the other two?"
Rong Jielin hesitated for a moment and said: "The elder of Rongjieyi clan is the father of Rong Yitie. He is a late-stage Xiantian strongman who is in retreat to reach the peak of Xiantian. And the elder of Rongjieling clan is the father of clan leader Rong Yihuo.
, he himself is the peak of the innate world, and he is also in retreat at this time, trying to reach the master realm."
Rong Kaixuan took a deep breath. He finally understood why Rong Yitie and others behaved so arrogantly in the family.
It turns out that behind them, there is an extremely strong backer. This person is the second master in the family after Rong Jieling.
There was another commotion outside the door, and several people entered one after another. The leader turned out to be Gu Tianhe.
After seeing this person, even those sitting on the high platform stood up to greet him. Although the Gu family's status was extremely respected, the reason why they were so solemn was because of Gu Tianhe's own strength.
That was an innate-level strongman who could rival them.
After a while, two more people appeared on the high platform. Gu Tianhe and his wife were sitting there, chatting happily with the clan elders and Wang Xiaoxiao, and getting along harmoniously.
Rong Kaixuan was surprised as to who Wang Xiaoxiao was and why her birthday alarmed so many people.
Suddenly, his eyebrows raised, he turned around and met Rong Kaijie's eyes in the void.
The eyes of the two people were as sharp as swords, almost sparks of fire would burst out.
However, in this situation, they were quite restrained, and they looked away from each other for just a moment.
"Xiao'er, my dear, I miss my aunt so much."
A gust of wind suddenly blew through the hall, and everyone's eyes were dazzled. A beautiful young woman suddenly appeared on the high platform. Her eyes were faintly shining, and she held Wang Xiaoxiao with both hands. Even the eyes on her face turned into a smile.
To the crescent moon.
Everyone's expressions changed slightly. This woman's appearance was so sudden and quick that even the clan elders had no time to react.
Wang Xiaoxiao gave a bitter smile and said, "Sister-in-law, Xiaoer's birthday would alarm you. You really shouldn't."
The young woman's pretty face turned and she said: "Xiao'er, you are my aunt's most beloved child. How could aunt not come to see you?" She paused and said angrily: "It's all my brother's fault for putting you here."
If you leave it here, you won’t allow your clan members to come see you. Hum, do you know that your grandparents are nagging you endlessly every day, if not... they would have left to see you long ago."
"Aunt..." Wang Xiaoxiao frowned slightly and said, "Dad also loves Xiaoer equally."
A trace of disapproval flashed across the young woman's face, but she seemed to be wary. She nodded repeatedly and said perfunctorily: "Xiao'er, today is your birthday, so we won't mention him." She turned her eyes and said,
He turned to Rong Yi and said, "Clan Chief Rong, Xiao'er is temporarily staying in your mansion. I'm sorry to trouble you."
Rong Yihuo said quickly: "Fairy Wang is so annoying. The eldest brother trusts the younger brother and entrusts Xiaoer to the Rong family. It is an honor for the younger brother and the Rong family."
Fairy Wang smiled slightly and said: "Chief Rong is so angry." She turned her beautiful eyes and said in surprise: "Brother Gu is also here."
Gu Tianhe bowed and said, "I haven't seen you for a few years. Fairy Wang, you are well."
"Humph, I'm fine." Fairy Wang raised her eyebrows and said, "Your ancient family has numerous talents, strong men, and prosperity. It's really a good sign."
Gu Tianhe smiled slightly, seemingly unaware of these remarks about holding a knife and a stick.
Wang Xiaoxiao gently tugged on the young woman's clothes and said: "Aunt, today is Xiao'er's birthday, please sit down."
Then Fairy Wang smiled and said: "Yes, today is your birthday, so let's not talk about disappointing things."
"That's right, that's right." Rong Jiehan, the only female elder among the elders of the Rong family, stood up and said: "Xiao'er, everyone who comes here today is here to celebrate your birth. Haha, this is what I am saying.
See if you are satisfied with the gift you prepared."
She took out a small box and handed it over. Wang Xiaoxiao took it in her hand and said respectfully: "Thank you, Grandma Han."
Fairy Wang curled her lips slightly and thought to herself, that's why the eldest brother is so bad at leaving the child here. Humph, are they worthy of so many grandparents?
However, she couldn't say much at Wang Xiaoxiao's birthday banquet.
Wang Xiaoxiao opened the box, and a treasure light suddenly bloomed out. It was a beautiful bead chain with twelve round green beads on it, and each bead had faint energy fluctuations.
After seeing this string of beads, everyone was slightly moved.
Although this object is not a treasure, the properties of the treasure are consistent with Wang Xiaoxiao. If you wear this bead to practice, the speed of absorbing the spiritual power of heaven and earth will definitely be much faster.
Rong Jiehan took out this treasure, which can be regarded as a lot of effort.
Next, everyone presented gifts one after another, and the whole scene was quite lively.
Those who can enter this hall are all people with a certain status in the Rong family, and the gifts they bring out are naturally extraordinary.
Seeing that most people had taken out their gifts and presented them, Rong Kaijie stood up suddenly, took out a box, and said loudly: "Junior Sister Wang, this is a little thought for my brother, please accept it."
His voice immediately attracted everyone's attention.
As one of the most outstanding figures among the next generation disciples of the family, Rong Kaijie has always been one of Wang Xiaoxiao's most powerful suitors, so everyone wants to see what gifts he will prepare.
Wang Xiaoxiao thanked her as always. She gently opened the box, a look of surprise flashed in her eyes.
Inside this box, there is actually a piece of jewelry. However, there are waves of powerful spiritual energy flowing from this jewelry.
Today, Wang Xiaoxiao received many small and exquisite spiritual weapons of various kinds, but in terms of spiritual power intensity, there was nothing comparable to this piece of jewelry.
A hint of satisfaction appeared on Rong Kaijie's face, and he said loudly: "This piece of jewelry is exquisitely made and very suitable for junior sister. Moreover, it also has an innate-level protective light sealed on it. Even for late-stage innate warriors,
It cannot be defeated in an instant."
Everyone was in an uproar, and their gazes on this piece of jewelry suddenly became a little more intense.
Rong Kaixuan touched the pendant on his chest. He naturally knew the true value of this piece of jewelry and was shocked in his heart.
In order to pursue Wang Xiaoxiao, Rong Kaijie went all out and spared no expense.
Wang Xiaoxiao hesitated for a moment, then accepted the gift and said, "Thank you, senior brother."
Rong Kaijie couldn't see any emotional fluctuations in Wang Xiaoxiao's eyes, and couldn't help but feel slightly annoyed. He turned his eyes and saw Rong Kaixuan, his heart moved slightly, and he smiled: "Junior Brother Kaixuan is here too."
Rong Kaixuan stood up and said in a deep voice: "Since senior brother can come, naturally my little brother can come too."
"Yes." Rong Kaijie said with a smile: "Today is junior sister's birthday, anyone who wants to congratulate her can come. Haha, I just don't know what gift junior brother has prepared?"
Wang Xiaoxiao frowned slightly and said: "Brothers from the same discipline, I am very happy to be able to come to Xiaoer."
She knew Rong Kaixuan's background. Although this boy had extraordinary talents, his foundation was too shallow. How could he have any shocking treasures?
Rong Kaijie felt resentful in his heart, but kept an indifferent smile on his face as he watched Rong Kaixuan.
Smiling slightly, Rong Kaixuan's heart pounded. After seeing everyone's gifts, he could no longer have high expectations for the remaining five Little Beauty Pills.
Although the Little Zhuyan Pill is precious, in terms of practical value, it cannot be compared with the jewelry. What's more, he also took out half of it to honor his mother, and now he only has these pitiful five pills in his hand.
.
However, now that things have come to this, he can't back down.
Taking a few steps forward, Rong Kaixuan took out the jade box and placed it in front of the stage. He said, "This is a gift prepared by me. Please accept it, senior sister."
Wang Xiaoxiao took it, she smiled broadly and said, "Thank you, junior brother."
Looking at her look like this, she didn't seem to want to open it on the spot.
The muscles on Rong Kaijie's face twitched slightly. After seeing Wang Xiaoxiao's performance, he was filled with jealousy.
At this time, even a blind man could see that Wang Xiaoxiao's attitude towards the two of them was slightly different.
For Rong Kaijie, he was mostly perfunctory. But for this junior brother who had just emerged, he was quite considerate.
Rong Kaijie said in a deep voice: "Junior sister, I don't know what Junior Brother Kaixuan gave me. You might as well take it out and let everyone open their eyes."
Wang Xiaoxiao smiled slightly and said: "Since junior brother gave it to me, it is mine. I want to take it back and appreciate it slowly. Please forgive me, senior brother."
Rong Kaijie was suddenly speechless, his face flushed slightly, and murderous intent filled his heart.
Fairy Wang suddenly spoke, "Xiao'er, I'm also very curious, just open it and take a look."
Wang Xiaoxiao was startled. Faced with his aunt's request, he couldn't simply refuse.
Sighing secretly, she obeyed and opened the box.
Suddenly, everyone clearly saw the five pills in the box.
A burst of medicinal fragrance wafted out, and everyone smelled the elixir, and they all showed a hint of intoxication.
Rong Kaijie frowned slightly and said hesitantly: "What kind of pill is this?"
Fairy Wang's face was still disdainful before, but when the scent of the medicine floated up, her expression suddenly changed.
She stretched out her hand and covered the box as fast as lightning, and said: "Xiao'er, please keep this pill and don't open it at will." She warned sternly: "This pill should not be in contact with the air for a long time, otherwise it will cause damage to the body.
The efficacy of the medicine is greatly impaired.”
Everyone's eyes lit up, they all knew that this elixir must be extremely precious.
"Auntie, what kind of elixir is this?" Wang Xiaoxiao asked slowly, relieved.
Fairy Wang hesitated for a moment, then said word by word: "This is the Zhuyan Pill."
