After hearing the report, the people in the meeting hall were startled at first, and then their expressions changed.
"who?"
Xiao Sheng also sat up straight and stared at the visitor.
"Xiao Chen of the Xiao family of Long Hai..."
The visitor noticed the reaction of everyone in the meeting hall and felt a tremble in his heart. He did not report wrongly.
"Xiao Chen is here?"
Xiao Lin stood up suddenly, this kid... why is he here today!
In the morning, he called Tong Yan and asked when Xiao Chen would come.
He wanted to deal with the Xiao family before Xiao Chen came, at least... so that the Xiao family would not refuse Xiao Chen's return!
But now, Xiao Chen is here without any preparation?
Thinking about what they just discussed, Xiao Lin's heart tightened. What should he do?
Xiao Wei's lineage not only wants to prevent Xiao Chen from returning to the Xiao family, but also wants to destroy him before he has fully grown up!
Thoughts flashed through his mind, and Xiao Lin glanced at Xiao Sheng from the corner of his eye.
Xiao Sheng's expression also changed, and his hand on the armrest of the chair even trembled slightly.
he came?
"Did you hear that? The Xiao family of Longhai...heh, he never thought of himself as a member of the Xiao family!"
Xiao Wei and others were also surprised that Xiao Chen came to the Xiao family?
But soon they felt happy. This boy had a way to heaven and he would not take it. There was no way to hell but he would throw himself into it!
Now that you have come to the Xiao family, do you still want to leave alive?
impossible!
I don’t know if he brought the Xuanyuan Sword. It would be better if he brought the Xuanyuan Sword!
Not only the Xuanyuan Sword, but also the Longhai Xiao family, they also want to take it!
"Xiao Chen?"
Xiao Mian, who was sitting in the first place, asked slowly.
"Yes, it is."
Is there anything wrong with people being cautious?
"He went back alone... came alone?"
Xiao Sheng also calmed down and spoke.
"Master, there is not one person, there are seven people in total, five men and two women!"
Everyone is busy reporting.
"Fifth Ancestor, this is an opportunity. No matter what, we must keep Xiao Chen..."
Xiao Wei looked at Xiao Mian and said.
"That's right."
The ancestor who just said he wanted to destroy Xiao Chen also spoke slowly.
He is ranked third, named 'Xiao Bo', and is older than Xiao Mian, but slightly less powerful.
"Lao Wu, Xiao Chen has no respect for his elders and is daring... This matter cannot be left alone."
Xiao Mian nodded, this matter is indeed difficult to handle!
Regardless of whether Xiao Chen is from the Xiao family or not, he crippled Xiao Wei, Xiao Lian and the others, and broke the arms of Xiao Yunhong and Xiao Jiang. This matter must be explained!
Outsiders... don't dare to do this!
Listening to their conversation, Xiao Lin's expression changed again and he strode out.
He had to let Xiao Chen leave first. It was not appropriate to come to the Xiao family at this time!
"Xiao Lin, what are you doing!"
Xiao Wei stood up and asked loudly.
"I'm going to see Xiao Chen!"
Xiao Lin said coldly.
"Meet Xiao Chen? Humph, I think you want to inform him and let him escape?"
Xiao Wei glared at Xiao Lin and said sternly.
"No!"
After all, he was an elder, so Xiao Lin suppressed his temper and did not curse.
"Xiao Lin, don't go out yet."
Xiao Mian also spoke slowly.
Hearing this, Xiao Lin stopped and became even more worried.
"Xiao Sheng, what did you say?"
Xiao Mian looked at Xiao Sheng and asked.
"Let him come in. Some things must be resolved after all."
Xiao Sheng said slowly.
Xiao Lin's expression changed again, and he wanted to say something, but Xiao Sheng shook his head slightly.
Xiao Mian thought for a while and nodded: "Well, let him come in first, we can't just discuss it and see what he wants to do."
Xiao Mian was also a little surprised that Xiao Chen took the initiative to come to Xiao's house.
He had heard of this junior back then, but didn't pay much attention to it.
At that time, he was in retreat, trying to achieve half-step innateness...
By the time he came out of confinement, Xiao Chen had already left the Xiao family.
So he wasn't very clear about what happened that year.
Now the Xiao family is divided into three factions. He is neutral, while Xiao Sheng and Xiao Wei are in two different camps.
Back then, Xiao Wei's lineage dominated the Xiao family, and even Xiao Sheng, the head of the family, couldn't do much.
In recent years, Xiao Sheng's control over the Xiao family has become stronger than before, and Xiao Wei's lineage has been suppressed.
However, even if he is suppressed, he is only slightly behind.
Regarding Xiao Chen, Xiao Wei's attitude is very clear and he cannot be allowed to return!
Xiao Mian also understood that it was because Xiao Wei and the others were scared, including his two brothers!
A young man can make them afraid... From this point of view, Xiao Mian is also somewhat interested in Xiao Chen.
If Xiao Chen is really good, then he doesn't mind... letting him return to the Xiao family.
After all, the Xiao family is also in trouble now, and safeguarding the interests of the Xiao family is what he should do.
"Then...I'll let him in."
Xiao Lin took a deep breath. No matter what, he had to see Xiao Chen first and remind him.
"Hmph, Xiao Lin, you'd better put away those little thoughts of yours..."
Xiao Lian said coldly, Xiao Chen is here and he wants revenge!
"Xiao Lian, don't force me to kill you."
Xiao Lin looked at Xiao Lian, exuding cold murderous intent.
Upon hearing Xiao Lin's words, Xiao Lian's expression changed, and even the flesh on his fat face trembled a few times.
Now he has been deposed and is a waste. He can sit in the council chamber because he is a direct member of the family.
But...his status is incomparable to Xiao Lin.
Xiao Lin is known as the ‘Qilin son of the Xiao family’, and he is also the most optimistic person of several ancestors!
If Xiao Lin really kills him, the Xiao family will not do anything to Xiao Lin because he is a waste. The most they can do is lock him up for a few years and let him go into seclusion!
This is a big family.
Family affection... is too weak, interests come first!
The interests of the family are greater than anything else!
Therefore, Xiao Lian really didn't dare to provoke Xiao Lin too much, for fear of really irritating him.
"Xiao Lin, I think you are also bold...Have you forgotten the Xiao family's rules?"
Seeing Xiao Lian being suppressed by Xiao Lin, Xiao Wei shouted angrily, he is senior to Xiao Lin, if Xiao Lin dares to talk to him like this, then he is disrespecting his superiors!
Xiao Lin looked at Xiao Wei, this old guy... his cultivation has been ruined, and his temper has become much louder!
Before anyone could say anything else, someone else walked in quickly.
"Report!"
"explain!"
Xiao Sheng looked at the visitor and said in a deep voice.
The visitor looked at the crowd and hesitated, not sure whether he should say anything.
"What's the matter? Tell me!"
Xiao Mian spoke coldly.
"Xiao Chen said that if he is not allowed to go up the mountain, he will... fight him up in five minutes."
The visitor said cautiously.
Upon hearing this, the faces of everyone in the meeting hall changed.
"broken!"
Xiao Lin's heart skipped a beat. This boy... dared to say this?
Xiao Sheng also frowned, and when he glanced at Xiao Mian from the corner of his eye, he saw that his face also darkened.
This made him a little worried and a little angry at the same time. This kid...does he really think he is very strong?
"Oh, call him! Did you hear that? He has never taken the Xiao family seriously!"
The people of Xiao Wei's lineage were shocked and angry, and then happy again.
If Xiao Chen behaves like this, he will definitely have opinions if he is from the Zhongli lineage!
As long as Xiao Mian and the others have a problem with Xiao Chen and stand on their side, then Xiao Sheng and the others cannot save Xiao Chen!
By then... Xiao Chen will definitely die!
"Fifth Ancestor, Xiao Chen is young and speaks freely. I hope you won't be angry..."
Xiao Lin ignored Xiao Wei and others, looked at Xiao Mian, cupped his hands and said.
"Young? Oh, yes, who hasn't been young before? It's good to be young."
Xiao Mian spoke slowly.
"You are young and frivolous, but you have to pay a price for being young and frivolous... Since he said he wants to fight, let him fight! Xiao Ming, you lead people to guard the mountain gate, I want to see if he can fight
Come up."
"Yes, Fifth Patriarch."
A man in his fifties stood up and nodded.
Xiao Ming, who is of the same generation as Xiao Sheng and Xiao Lin, is considered a neutral faction. He is at the peak of his strength in the late stage of Huajin. He is in charge of the Xiao family's "Execution Hall" and has great power!
"If he can fight, I can treat him as young and frivolous and ignore him... But if he can't fight, you can take him to the execution hall!"
Xiao Mian looked at Xiao Ming and said slowly.
"Yes, Fifth Patriarch."
Xiao Ming nodded, turned around and walked out.
Seeing Xiao Ming walking out, Xiao Lin's expression changed again. He knew this guy was cruel and ruthless.
It would be terrible if Xiao Chen fell into Xiao Ming's hands!
He wanted to follow him out, but was stopped by Xiao Mian: "You don't have to go now, we can just watch... Hehe, a peerless genius? I want to see if he is truly a peerless genius!"
Xiao Lin frowned and looked at Xiao Sheng, who shook his head again.
At the foot of the mountain, Xiao Chen and others were smoking and chatting.
Not far away, there were a dozen experts from the Xiao family, watching them warily.
They were just ordinary disciples and didn't know Xiao Chen.
Moreover, what happened back then was also sealed, and only the core members of the Xiao family knew about it.
At first they thought they were just visiting the Xiao family and asked them to wait...but then they felt something was wrong.
Xiao Chen said, I want to fight up the mountain!
Although they felt that Xiao Chen didn't have the guts, they were still cautious, what if they broke in?
"Is it five minutes yet?"
Xiao Chen asked while smoking a cigarette.
"Not yet, it's only been three minutes."
Bai Ye looked at his watch and shook his head.
"Then just wait."
Xiao Chen said as he glanced at the Ruishan Archway. Back then... he left from here!
"Brother Chen, the time is up. If you are not allowed in, do you really want to fight me in?"
Bai Ye asked in a low voice.
"Otherwise? If we are not allowed in, we will turn around and go back?"
Xiao Chen asked back.
"Well, maybe... they are preparing for a greeting or something. Let's give them more time to prepare."
Bai Ye smiled.
"Welcome along the way? Ha."
Xiao Chen sneered.
"You said they set up an ambush for me and just waited in the street to welcome me."
"Don't be impulsive."
Ning Kejun spoke calmly. At this time, she had already put on a veil to cover her face.
She was like this every time she walked in the world.
"Brother Chen, shall I... smash this archway?"
Li Hanhou was holding a thick mace in his hand. He was too lazy to care about what the Xiao family had with Xiao Chen. He only knew that Xiao Chen came to the Xiao family to cause trouble.
"Good idea, I'll blow it up later."
Xiao Chen looked at the archway and nodded.
"Time is up."
Bai Ye looked at his watch again and said.
"Let's go up the mountain!"
Xiao Chen nodded. If you don't invite me, then call him!
