After settling down Ling Xiao and Wang Wenke, Uncle Zou quickly returned to the Zou family.
In the hall of the Zou family, a middle-aged man was sitting on the main seat of the hall, sipping tea leisurely, looking at Uncle Zou with a smile and asking: "Uncle Zou, how are you two?"
This middle-aged man has a square face, thick eyebrows and short beard, and has a calm and elegant temperament all over his body. However, the prominent muscles of his hands and arms seem a bit inconsistent with his temperament.
He is the eldest son of Zou Bolang, the current head of the Zou family, and the biological father of Zou Wei, the daughter-in-law chosen this time, Zou Jun.
Zou Bolang, the head of the Zou family, has three sons. Zou Jun, the eldest son, is very popular with his father. This time he is choosing a son-in-law for Zou Jun's daughter Zou Wei, so all the matters are left to Zou Jun.
Uncle Zou smiled at Zou Jun very politely and said, "Reporting to Mr. Jun, the two people who had the argument just now have their own merits, but from my perspective, that Wang Wenke is obviously a lot worse than that Xiao Lang."
For the three heirs of the Zou family, Uncle Zou addressed them by adding the word "ye" to the last character of their names to show his respect for the three heirs.
This old servant has always regarded himself as a loyal slave. He has never considered himself a person just because he has been in the Zou family for a long time. He dares to be disrespectful to the juniors of the Zou family. This is one of the reasons why Uncle Zou can stay in the Zou family for so long. .
Hearing that the loyal old housekeeper was so optimistic about Xiao Lang, Zou Jun couldn't help but show a trace of curiosity and a smile on his face: "Why do you say this? That Xiao Lang just wanted to kill that incompetent Zou Quanlai of your family." But Wang Wenke saved Zou Quan."
Uncle Zou snorted disapprovingly: "If I hadn't been inconvenient to do it myself, I would have killed Zou Quan for ruining the reputation of the Zou family. That Wang Wenke just now was also meddlesome and thought he saved Zou Quan. Just to please us, he is truly an out-and-out hypocrite."
Uncle Zou continued: "As for that Xiao Lang, he is unknown, but he dares to break ground on the Zou family's territory. To say that this person is either extremely smart or extremely stupid, but judging from the way he dealt with Wang Wenke just now, this He is very scheming and has sharp and vicious methods, so he should be a very smart person."
Zou Jun smiled, put down the teacup in his hand, and nodded approvingly: "When he used that strange broom to grab the arm of the disciple of the Ksitigarbha Sect, he had already passed the poison through the metal wire that penetrated the opponent's arm through the tail of the broom. When it comes to the other party, such incredible poisoning methods are really beyond the imagination of ordinary people."
Uncle Zou said cheerfully: "It turns out that Mr. Jun is also watching. I am too talkative, but I have to admire that boy. He is very particular about the poison he uses. He seems to have expected that Wang Wenke will use the antidote to save his sect. Without the antidote, the poison would not be so lethal."
Zou Jun agreed with Uncle Zou's view and said: "He seems to have made a plan from the beginning. Such deep scheming is indeed rare in the world. Moreover, although his cultivation level is only orange level, you find that there is no , even if he really confronts the disciple of the Ksitigarbha Sect, he may not lose, so his actual combat effectiveness should be at the green level."
"It seems that Master Jun likes this young man quite a lot. If there are no surprises, Master Jun will probably choose him." Uncle Zou asked intentionally or unintentionally.
Zou Jun was noncommittal and smiled: "It depends on whether that guy can pass this trial. By the way, that guy should live next door to Wang Wenke now. Guess whether they will have a conflict. .”
Looking at Zou Jun's slightly smiling face, Uncle Zou laughed twice at himself. The arrangements of this handsome man sometimes are really confusing. Could it be that he deliberately wanted two people to come to participate in the selection of his son-in-law? He is only happy when guys fight in big hotels.
Zou Jun was happy, but Wang Wenke was not happy at all. Senior Brother Zheng died inexplicably and unexplainedly. The enemy was next door, but he could not touch him in the slightest.
This is the territory of the Zou family, and it was the Zou family's fault that the two of them were arranged together. If he went to make trouble at this time, he would obviously be at odds with the Zou family.
It's not that he's afraid of the Zou family, it's just that this time he's here to marry the daughter of the Zou family, so he has to give them some face, right?
Besides, the Zou family knew they were at odds but arranged for them to be together. Maybe the Zou family was deliberately testing them.
Therefore, Wang Wenke should not lose etiquette in anything he said. That wild boy from the country did not abide by the rules. He, Wang Wenke, was a well-known son. How could he be as knowledgeable as that guy?
Wang Wenke suppressed the anger in his heart, and even when he saw Ling Xiao, he just glared at him without any other expression.
Naturally, Ling Xiao was not a fuel-efficient lamp. Seeing that Wang Wenke was deliberately forbearing, he would "accidentally" bump Wang Wenke's shoulder or step on Wang Wenke's foot from time to time.
What's even more outrageous is that once Ling Xiao sneezed and a large ball of saliva and snot flew directly towards Wang Wenke's face.
If Wang Wenke hadn't been prepared for it, it would have been a great sight.
Wang Wenke could bear it, but the Ksitigarbha disciples around him couldn't. They were Ksitigarbha sects, one of the three places in the world. How had they ever experienced such a bird-like attitude?
Following several angry roars from Ksitigarbha disciples, the conflict between Wang Wenke and Ling Xiao was aroused to an irresolvable level.
Zou Jun and Zou Bo were always paying attention to everything they said and did. They were extremely disdainful and contemptuous of Wang Wenke's deliberate forbearance, and their affection for Ling Xiao was growing day by day.
Although this guy's methods are clumsy, he always manages to do it just right every time and doesn't drive the opponent crazy. This is obviously intentional.
Such a person is very unlikely to suffer losses, and is very suitable for Zou Jun's criteria for selecting a son-in-law.
It's just that Ling Xiao brought a beautiful personal maid with him, which made Zou Jun and Zou Bo a little unhappy.
But it's normal to think about it. At least this guy didn't touch the girl very much. Although he was showing off when he went to a brothel, other than spending money to drink some fancy wine, he was still clean.
But Wang Wenke was different. Although he pretended to be upright, his eyes would always peek at the female chain soul masters who came to Zoucheng one after another from time to time.
Therefore, Zou Jun and Zou Bo have come to the conclusion that even if Wang Wenke can win the son-in-law selection competition, they must find a way to eliminate Wang Wenke.
Poor Wang Wenke still doesn't know that his outcome has been determined in advance.
Later, one group after another of well-known young masters arrived at Wangyue Tower, among whom Wang Wenke had many acquaintances. After forming a gang, Ling Xiao was very measured and did not provoke Wang Wenke.
Wang Wenke was just about to take this opportunity to let these young masters bring bad luck to Ling Xiao. Unexpectedly, Ling Xiao actually hid. Wang Wenke was so angry that he gnashed his teeth in his heart and secretly cursed Ling Xiao as despicable.
The time for the son-in-law selection competition is coming soon, and Ling Xiao is of course too lazy to argue with Wang Wenke anymore. He needs to practice and successfully convert all the seven souls in his body, and strive to break through to the yellow level during the son-in-law selection competition.
Although Ling Xiao has many innate advantages, he is not a lazy person. As long as he is not delayed by things, Ling Xiao will practice for a period of time almost every day.
With innate advantages and acquired diligence, Ling Xiao is what he is today.
Ling Xiao has been able to convert the six souls into force souls, central souls and heroic souls. As long as he can transform the six souls into the other four souls, then being promoted to the yellow level will be just around the corner.
However, Ling Xiao discovered that after reaching the Orange level, it was twice as difficult to convert six souls into one soul as it was at the Red level, and it also took much more time.
In just a few days, Ling Xiao could only consolidate his soul power and try not to let his soul power wander around like last time because he used the purple demon's secret skill.
However, three days before the start of the son-in-law selection competition, Ling Xiao could not concentrate on training.
Because he saw a person, a person he was very, very familiar with, a soul master with a demon soul in his body.
As soon as this person passed by the door of Ling Xiao's room, Ling Xiao immediately knew who this guy was and immediately got out of his cultivation state.
"Brother Wen Ke, let me introduce to you. This is Li Qingxuan of Yuntian Sect. He is the great-great-grandson of the leader of Yuntian Sect." A voice sounded outside the door. Ling Xiao did not hear the other words clearly, but "Li Qingxuan" But the three words were heard clearly.
"Li Qingxuan." The anger in Ling Xiao's heart began to burn. He felt that if his anger continued to spread like this, he would definitely be burned crazy.
"Brother Qingxuan, it's a pleasure to meet you." Wang Wenke arched his hands towards Li Qingxuan, but there was not much respect in his tone.
Everyone in the entire Xuantian Continent knows how many great-great-grandsons the Yuntian Sect leader has. Wang Wenke naturally won't put too much effort into making friends with such an inconspicuous guy as Li Qingxuan.
Moreover, there was an aura about Li Qingxuan that made Wang Wenke uncomfortable, but he could never tell what it was.
Li Qingxuan now looks like a handsome young young man, but like Ling Xiao, he is actually a thousand-year-old monster. He can tell what Wang Wenke is thinking at a glance.
Of course, Li Qingxuan did not criticize Wang Wenke, but he still greeted Wang Wenke with clasped fists and said, "I have met Mr. Wang, and I have admired him for a long time."
"Oh, let's find a private room and have a good chat." The guy who was the middleman probably saw something, and quickly diverted their attention at the same time.
At this time, the door of the room next to Wang Wenke opened, and a guy who made Wang Wenke's eyelids jump and gnash his teeth with hatred appeared in front of them.
"It turns out that this is Li Qingxuan of Yuntian Sect. I, Xiao Lang, really want to make friends with you. Would you like to talk to me?" Ling Xiao smiled slightly at Li Qingxuan.
Underneath Ling Xiao's smiling disguise, he concealed his strong murderous intent.
Li Qingxuan frowned, showing courtesy for nothing. Naturally, he did not dare to accept the other party's invitation easily: "Thank you for your wrong love, brother. I don't deserve it. I don't have time today. Let's wait for another day."
Ling Xiao smiled and nodded: "Then let's choose a day."
After saying that, Ling Xiao turned around and hid in the room without even looking at Wang Wenke.
Li Qingxuan's brows furrowed even tighter. He didn't know why he felt frightened when he saw the person in front of him. He always felt that the person in front of him was a very dangerous person, but the person was obviously just an orange level person.
Out of caution, Li Qingxuan secretly made a decision in his heart: "I must be careful to guard against this person."
