Chapter 143 The indifferent tone, the unconcealed alienation, and Xiao Zhen's attitude towards the Xiao family made Xiao Qin only smile bitterly for a while. After looking around, Xiao Qin said to Xiao Zhen: "I don't know what you are doing now.
Conveniently or not, I would like to find a quieter place to talk to you alone."
"Brother Xiao is joking. The current situation is that Brother Xiao doesn't restore his cultivation first, but talks secretly with me, an insignificant outsider. It's really unreasonable? And more importantly, I don't seem to have anything to talk to.
Brother Xiao told me, so there is no need to discuss it?" Without any nonsense, Xiao Zhen flatly rejected Xiao Qin's invitation.
"Well... my body is rather strange, so in such an environment full of fire spirits, I don't need to enter special concentration to restore my own cultivation. Therefore, restoring my cultivation is not a problem for me.
What a big problem, and I have some private things that I want to tell you, Xiao Zhen, so I think we should find a quieter place to talk."
Xiao Qin didn't care about Xiao Zhen's indifference, or it should be said that Xiao Qin had expected it, so he wasn't too surprised. Just when Xiao Zhen frowned, Qing Ya, dressed in Tsing Yi, arrived.
Next to Xiao Zhen, he said softly: "Go ahead and leave the security matters to me. I think you have a lot to say."
Staring at Qing Ya fiercely, Xiao Zhen was immediately angry and had nowhere to vent his anger. However, Qing Ya didn't care about Xiao Zhen's anger at all and directly took over Xiao Zhen's work. In fact, although she didn't know the relationship between Xiao Zhen and
It is about the Xiao family, but both parties have the same surname, and Xiao Zhen is also inexplicably cold towards the Xiao family. From this point of view, Xiao Zhen must have something to do with the Xiao family.
"Do you have anything to say?" The two found a secluded place, and Xiao Zhen asked Xiao Qin straight to the point. Upon hearing Xiao Zhen's question, Xiao Qin took a deep breath and said:
"I am the second son of Xiao Lie, the head of the Xiao family. This time, all the younger generations of the Xiao family are headed by me."
"Oh, it turns out to be the second young master of the Xiao family, so what?" Looking at Xiao Qin, Xiao Zhen really didn't understand what Xiao Qin wanted to express. Seeing Xiao Zhen's frown, Xiao Qin quickly said: "
I don’t mean anything else, I just want to explain that I still have some status in the Xiao family, and what I say is absolutely credible..."
"What do you want to say?" Frowning, Xiao Zhen asked Xiao Qin again. I don't know why, but Xiao Qin, who used to be eloquent, didn't know what to say when facing Xiao Zhen. Although
It was said that his cultivation had not yet recovered, but Xiao Qin had to admit that Xiao Zhen's momentum was already far beyond what a body-training cultivator could possess.
"Before, my father heard what you said in the Piaomiao Sect. He was... very happy... Although he didn't show it, everyone in the family could see that he was very happy..." He said deeply again
After taking a breath to stabilize his mood, Xiao Qin lowered his voice and said to Xiao Zhen.
"Happy? No? I thought you should be very angry. After all, an outsider like me, with the same surname, uses the name of your Xiao family to cheat, but the head of your Xiao family is actually happy instead of angry.
Did I hear that correctly?" After hearing Xiao Qin's words, Xiao Zhen laughed and said.
"I know what you are angry about..."
"You are wrong, Mr. Xiao. I am just glad that the Xiao family, one of the six Cangyun families, is not angry with me for pretending to be the Xiao family. This is what I want to be happy about. Of course, I am also very happy.
I know that things can never happen again, so I will not pretend to be a member of the Xiao family in the future. If Young Master Xiao is afraid that I, Xiao Zhen, will ruin the reputation of the Xiao family with my nonsense today, then Young Master Xiao can rest assured."
"You know and understand that this is not what I want to say!!" After hearing Xiao Zhen's words, Xiao Qin immediately said angrily: "I know that after you claimed to be a member of the Xiao family, we did not admit it, or even
He did not speak out, which makes you extremely sad, but I also want to tell you that there are many things to consider in the family, and even if my father is willing, he cannot go against the wishes of some elders in the family. "
Seeing that Xiao Zhen's expression did not change at all, Xiao Qin continued: "Actually, we can all see that my father at that time really wanted to recognize you, but the Luo family was advancing step by step, and
Some internal strife within the Xiao family prevents my father from doing this, because once he does this, I am afraid that he will be accused by some people, and when the time comes, external troubles will add to internal troubles, and the Xiao family will be in danger."
"Finished?" Seeing Xiao Qin say so much in one go, Xiao Zhen said calmly. Seeing that Xiao Zhen was indifferent to what he had said so much, Xiao Qin's eyes suddenly flashed with disappointment.
"I have finished what I want to say. As for whether you can understand it or not, it is your own business. The affairs of the cultivator family are far more complicated than those of ordinary sects. No one can control this." He sighed.
After that, Xiao Qin said to Xiao Zhen, and after listening to Xiao Qin's words, Xiao Zhen turned around and left. After taking a few steps, Xiao Zhen stopped. As soon as he turned around, Xiao Zhen said: "
I can’t say anything about the aristocratic family, but as an outsider, I have some opinions. Do you want to listen?”
After hearing Xiao Zhen's words, Xiao Qin nodded quickly. However, the next moment, what Xiao Zhen said made Xiao Qin's face instantly turn pale.
"What I want to say is, no wonder the Xiao family is overwhelmed by the Luo family. After listening to what you said today, I simply feel that this is the most normal result."
Seeing Xiao Qin's pale face, Xiao Zhen had no intention of stopping at all, "The head of the family who is troubled internally and externally and cannot even calm down his internal troubles is really inappropriate. He should make constant decisions, but he just hesitates to respond. It seems to be for the sake of the overall situation."
I’m really shocked that this family, which is just for the sake of others but actually acts cowardly and doesn’t even dare to take a chance, has been able to exist for such a long time.”
Xiao Zhen's words were merciless, and Xiao Qin didn't know how to refute them, because those so-called actions for the sake of the family are indeed a sign of cowardice and retreat from a certain perspective, "To be honest,
I really don’t know anything about family affairs, because I am just a villager who was born in a small fishing village, but I still know that when two armies confront each other, one side is overwhelming and the other is hesitant. After such a battle, it will definitely be overwhelming.
One side won a big victory, of course, this is just me as an outsider, and it’s just my personal opinion.”
Xiao Zhen criticized mercilessly, and Xiao Qin was speechless. Although he wanted to refute angrily, he recalled that the Xiao family was indeed deteriorating, and Xiao Lie's changes in many things were due to the family's control.
Xiao Qin had to admit that what Xiao Zhen said did have some truth. Just when Xiao Qin sighed, Xiao Zhen had already left. This time he had direct contact with the Xiao family, but Xiao Zhen
Zhen felt extremely disappointed.
"Come back?" Seeing Xiao Zhen's return, Qing Ya said: "Looking at you, it seems that there is no good result?"
"I'm just disappointed, but I've been disappointed with them countless times, so it doesn't matter anymore." After hearing Qing Ya's words, Xiao Zhen said with a smile.
Seeing Xiao Zhen's appearance, Qing Ya naturally understood that Xiao Zhen must have something unspeakable, but since Xiao Zhen was unwilling to take the initiative to talk about it, Qing Ya would not go out of his way to explore it. Seeing that the atmosphere became a bit silent, Xiao Zhen
He said to Qingya: "Senior Shi hasn't come back yet?"
Speaking of Shi Yunyi, Qingya immediately frowned, a worried look flashed across her beautiful eyes, Qingya said: "Well, Aunt Shi has been gone for a while, but she hasn't come back yet.
Logically speaking, it should be impossible for Aunt Shi to lose to a guy like that, but Aunt Shi hasn't contacted her yet, and I don't even know where she is. I'm a little worried about her..."
"Senior Shi's cultivation level is so high, he should be fine." After hearing Qing Ya's words, Xiao Zhen was also a little worried about Shi Yunyi. Although Shi Yunyi had been targeting Xiao Zhen, there was no doubt that without Shi Yunyi's help
, everyone has died countless times, but this time alone, if Shi Yunyi hadn't led away the black-robed cultivator who could use teleportation, it would have been impossible for everyone to rescue them.
"Well, I also believe that Aunt Shi will be fine..." Qingya nodded and murmured.
As time passed, many people's cultivation levels had recovered to a considerable extent. Seeing that many people had recovered a little combat strength, Xiao Zhen proposed not to stay here anymore but to leave here. Regarding Xiao Zhen's words,
No one objected. There was no doubt that the fighting here was no longer a stage for ordinary cultivators. The wisest thing for everyone present was to leave this place of fire spirits before the Demon Sect launched a massive attack.
Now that the decision has been made, everyone did not waste time. Following the only one road, the group of people quickly rushed upward. The more they moved forward, the hotter the surrounding environment became. This is also the closer they got to the surface.
Evidence, finally, after a few quarters of hours of rushing, everyone passed through the natural cave passage connecting the underground and returned to the red land of fire spirits. Looking at the surrounding fiery red rocks, many people
It feels like a world away.
"This is no longer a battlefield for us to wait for. Here, we can only be captured again at any time, and the elders of our sect and aristocratic families are already here, and it is no longer our turn to take action in the subsequent fighting.
." A cultivator from the Ziyun Sect, after everyone left the underground space, was the first to stand up and say that he seemed to be quite famous among the people, and he had also taken the initiative to communicate with Xiao Zhen before,
I learned that the elders of each sect were lurking in this land of fire spirits.
"So what we should do now is to leave here first, otherwise if the Demon Sect catches us and threatens the seniors of the sect, then we will really become big sinners. In today's situation, the younger generation of us and
The result of the battle between the Demon Sects is already obvious, we have lost, so we can only rely on the elders of each sect family for the rest."
Although they said it quite unwillingly, it is indeed a fact. In fact, they have nothing to do when they stay here. Their cultivation has not been fully recovered. Even if they want to help, they will only add trouble, so there is no objection.
Everyone unanimously decided to leave the Fire Spirit Land first. Seeing everyone's appearance, Qing Ya came to Xiao Zhen and said, "Then let's separate here. I won't leave. I want to go find Aunt Shi."
