After Xiao Yuan gave a general account, everyone in the Xiao family was stunned. Especially Xiao Qian, who actually took action, was even more surprised and embarrassed. To his surprise, his actions were completely within Hai Tian's expectation.
However, what was embarrassing was that Hai Tian was fully aware of his actions, which made his face feel hot.
"Beast, why don't you kneel down and apologize to Lord Haitian?" After hearing this, Mr. Xiao Buping slapped Xiao Qian hard in the face. This sudden scene also surprised everyone present.
Xiao Qiang jumped out quickly: "Father, what's going on? Didn't you say you were acting just now?"
"Father, I forgot to mention that when we contacted grandpa, that was when you were trying to persuade grandpa in the dungeon. So it was not an act before. Grandpa really wanted to expel the uncle from the house, but Hai Tian dissuaded him in time.
"
Mr. Xiao Buping glared at Xiao Qian seriously: "That's right, if Hai Tian hadn't come to persuade me, I would definitely have kicked you out of the house. Why don't you kneel down quickly and admit your mistake to Mr. Hai Tian? And beg.
His forgiveness!”
Feeling the burning pain on his face, Xiao Qian felt guilty and knelt down to Hai Tian: "I'm sorry, Master Hai Tian, this is all my fault. Please forgive me."
"Hey? What are you doing? Stand up quickly!" Hai Tian quickly tried to pull up Xiao Qian who was kneeling.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Xiao Buping stopped Hai Tian's movements and said with a livid face: "Haitian, you don't have to worry about him. This is what he should do. After all, he committed such a wrong thing and didn't let you beat him."
The meal is already considered light, just kneeling and kowtow."
"But this..." Hai Tian was a little embarrassed. Xiao Qian was Xiao Yuan's elder anyway.
Mr. Xiao Buping seemed to have noticed Hai Tian's dilemma and couldn't help but immediately said: "You don't have to worry about the fact that he is Yuan'er's elder. No matter what his identity is, as long as he makes a mistake, he should be punished. You son of a bitch, you still have to be punished."
Don’t you kowtow to Lord Haitian?”
After saying this, Mr. Xiao Buping turned his head and yelled at Xiao Qian again.
And Xiao Qian honestly kowtowed to Hai Tian three times and begged Hai Tian for forgiveness. He had already gone to this point, how could Hai Tian not forgive him? What's more, he had no intention of going into details.
After Xiao Qian kowtowed three times, Hai Tian immediately helped him up: "You don't have to be so polite. I know that you have no choice but to do it for the sake of the entire Xiao family. I don't blame you."
"Thank you, Lord Haitian, for your ungrateful kindness." Xiao Qian gratefully bowed to Haitian again. If Haitian refused to forgive him, he really didn't know what to say. He was even ready to commit suicide.
He was about to apologize. But he suddenly slapped his forehead and exclaimed: "Oh, Lord Haitian. Then your new Zhengtian Divine Sword..."
Xiao Qian suddenly remembered that he had stolen Haitian's New Zhengtian Divine Sword and dedicated it to Mo Shan. Now he apologized to Haitian and admitted his mistake. But the New Zhengtian Divine Sword was not returned.
If Haitian fights in the future without the help of the Xin Zhengtian Divine Sword, he will be the biggest sinner!
Everyone else also thought about this problem, especially the old man Xiao Buping, who hit Xiao Qian hard on the head: "You evil son, all this is caused by you, don't think about it quickly.
Find a way to steal the New Zhengtian Divine Sword back!"
"But father..." Xiao Qian smiled bitterly, "Mo Shan is very strict with the New Zhengtian Divine Sword. I have no chance to take action. And even if I get it, we are still trapped here.
It’s easy for them to track us down.”
"I don't care about this. I just want to see you steal the Xinzhengtian Divine Sword and return it to Haitian right away. Otherwise, you won't be able to enter the Xiao family's door!" Mr. Xiao Buping was still so domineering that he almost gave in.
Xiao Qian issued a death order.
Seeing that the atmosphere among the Xiao family had become very awkward again, Hai Tian quickly waved his hands to smooth things over: "Everyone, don't be nervous. Since I already knew that Xiao Qian was coming to steal my new Zhengtian Divine Sword, so what?
Are you going to make preparations? Don't worry. The Xinzhengtian Divine Sword that Xiao Qian stole is just an imitation, and it can only be regarded as a second-rate Chaos artifact at best."
"Ah? Imitation?" Xiao Qian couldn't help but widen his eyes when he heard this.
Mr. Xiao Buping raised his eyebrows slightly, took a deep breath, and said to Hai Tian with a smile: "Haitian, you are really good, you can think of replacing it with a fake one. But this way you won't be discovered by Mo Shan.
?”
"Old man, you can rest assured on this. There is absolutely no possibility of Mo Shan discovering it. Because the main materials of the fake New Zhengtian Divine Sword are exactly the same as the real New Zhengtian Divine Sword, but there are some other things missing in the middle.
." Hai Tian smiled proudly, "Mo Shan may find out that it is a fake, but definitely not now. If you don't believe it, you can ask Xiao Qian."
As soon as he heard that Hai Tian changed the topic to him, Xiao Qian nodded repeatedly: "Yes, after Mo Shan took it over, he looked carefully for a long time and didn't find anything unusual. It's just that they mentioned the weapon spirit. It seems that
I didn't find it, but I thought it was the Qiankun bag that temporarily isolated the weapon spirit and made it sleep, and I planned to study it again after a while."
"Look, I said there is no problem." Hai Tian smiled slightly.
Only then did Mr. Xiao Buping glare at Xiao Qian again: "If it weren't for Lord Haitian's new Zhengtian Divine Sword being fine, I would never let you go so easily!"
"Yes, father..." Xiao Qian nodded awkwardly and cast a grateful look at Hai Tian.
Because of Haitian's subterfuge, he was not only exempted from the mental blame, but also exempted from the punishment of his father. Although he was slapped and scolded a few times, it was considered the best result for him.
After everything was understood clearly, Xiao Yuan asked: "Haitian, how do you plan to rescue grandpa and the others?"
Upon hearing this, all the Xiao family members stretched out their ears and looked at Haitian curiously. Although the scope of activities was slightly larger now, they were limited to this small courtyard and they still lost their freedom. Everyone
Everyone wants to leave this hellish place, but they have no choice but to stay here peacefully. Now that there is a chance to leave, who wouldn't be excited?
Seeing everyone looking at him, Hai Tian couldn't help but chuckle: "It's very simple, use the Heaven-defying Mirror to put you in. You must know that the Heaven-defying Mirror is a first-class artifact of Chaos and can hold many people, even giants like Mo Shan.
I can’t even detect the breath.”
"Wait!" Mr. Xiao Buping suddenly shouted, "As far as I know, there is the strongest restriction outside the River Crab Palace. The River Crab clan is now open all day long. How did you sneak in?"
As expected of a generation of master thief, his observation ability is indeed very keen. Mr. Xiao Buping said again: "I heard that when you made a big fuss in the River Crab Palace last time, you couldn't pass through the strongest restriction even with the Heaven-defying Mirror. Later, you still destroyed the strongest one."
Only then did the force-restricting agency escape. Nowadays, the River Crab Clan must be guarding the location of the strongest banning agency even more closely. Even you, Hai Tian, with the help of Lord Song Xing and Lord Zhao Wuyan, are unlikely to succeed.
Bar?"
"Indeed, I admit that we can't break the strongest restriction, but we don't have to break it to get in and out." Hai Tian explained with a smile, "There is a place in this River Crab Palace where the strongest restriction will be temporarily opened."
"Are you talking about the entrance?" Mr. Xiao Buping quickly grasped the key.
Hai Tian nodded: "Yes, it was like this when we came. When they opened the entrance and exit, the strongest restriction there would be temporarily closed, and we took advantage of this gap to slip in directly. At that time, Xiao Qian only needed an excuse to
Go to my undercover agent and leave Hexi Palace and go to Bailexing. They will open the entrance and exit and let us out."
"This is a good idea, so without further ado, let's act quickly." The old man said excitedly.
After all, he has been locked up here for a long time, and it is a complete lie to say he doesn't want to leave.
Zhao Wuyan frowned: "Haitian, are we leaving like this? Do we need to leave anything for Mo Shan and the others?"
"Leave something behind?" Hai Tian raised his eyebrows slightly, "You mean to do some damage to them? I think it's better to forget it. Even if it's damage, where can it be damaged? If the action is too big, Mo Shan will definitely be destroyed.
When they discover our existence, it won't be that easy to escape. And if the movement is too small, it won't mean much."
Song Xing nodded: "Yes, our main mission here is to rescue the Xiao family. We must not lose the big for the small."
"What to do with the fake Xinzhengtian Divine Sword? Do you want to steal it back again?" Xiao Yuan suddenly asked.
Hai Tian thought for a while, waved his hand and said: "Forget it, it's just a second-rate Chaos artifact, and it doesn't make much sense even if it is given to Mo Shan and the others. Moreover, it is too difficult to steal it back. If you get trapped in it again, it will be worse.
It’s not cost-effective. But the material of this fake is not ordinary. I’ll have to find a way to get it back next time.”
"Well, let's leave now, lest we be discovered by Mo Shan and the others in the long run," Song Xing urged.
Afterwards, Haitian took out the Heaven-defying Mirror again, opened the mirror, and let everyone in the Xiao family get into it one by one. After everyone entered, Haitian asked Xiao Yuan and the two giants Song Xing and Zhao Wuyan to
Also enter.
He himself turned around and told Xiao Qian: "Remember, when you go to say goodbye to Mo Shan later, don't do anything strange, and promise Mo Shan that you will be a safe undercover, but Mo Shan and the others are not allowed to enter this place.
A small courtyard.”
"Is this... necessary?" Xiao Qian asked in confusion.
"Of course it is necessary. As long as they don't enter the courtyard, they won't find that your Xiao family has left. This is also a kind of protection for your safety. As long as you are discovered by them after leaving Hexi Palace, it doesn't matter. I understand.
Are you done?" Hai Tian explained carefully.
Xiao Qian nodded suddenly: "I understand, I will definitely not show any flaws!"
"Okay, go ahead, we will always follow you and come out to rescue you if something unexpected happens." Hai Tian smiled and patted Xiao Qian's back.
