This kind of thing was also very normal. One had to know that most of the resources in Wu Tan City were controlled by the few big families. Whoever had the upper hand would get more resources and the people of the family would also get better treatment. This was completely like a snowball rolling, so no one would give in on this kind of thing.
Even though the elders and the patriarch of the Xiao family were constantly fighting among themselves, they were unanimous on this matter. After all, it had always been an unchanging principle to unite against outsiders.
Li Chen smiled slightly and said,"It seems that I have been busy recently."”
At this time, Li Chen was the happiest. After all, it was a small-scale battle. It was impossible to send out any experts. At most, they would only send people with the strength of a Dou Zhe. This was also just in line with Li Chen's hunting conditions. Moreover, this was a battle. Wasn't it normal for people to die? This was the best cover.
"Mhm... But you have to be careful..." Xiao Mei looked at Li Chen worriedly. However, she knew that since Li Chen had already made up his mind, it was not something that she could change. Moreover, wasn't it a good thing that her man was so eager for strength? However, Xiao Mei seemed to have thought of something and continued,"That's right. There is still one more thing today. I heard from my father that a big shot is coming to the Xiao clan today. It seems to be someone from the Misty Cloud Sect.”
"Misty Cloud Sect? Could it be Nalan Yanran?" Li Chen thought excitedly.
In the beginning, Li Chen did not discover that Nalan Yanran had come to the Xiao clan. Now, it was clearly a little late. However, Li Chen did not feel that it was too strange. After all, Xiao Xun Er looked down on Xiao Yan. This was already different from the original plot. The current situation was also acceptable.
Li Chen could not wait to see Xiao Yan being humiliated when he thought of this. Li Chen smiled and said,"If these people come, Mei 'er, you can go and watch the show. There will be some interesting things happening.”
Hearing Li Chen's words, Xiao Mei also looked at him strangely. She didn't know who the people who came were, let alone how interesting they were. However, Li Chen obviously didn't want to continue, so Xiao Mei could only stop asking. When these people arrived, the truth would be revealed.
One must know that Nalan Yanran was a beauty that was on a higher level than Xiao Mei and was not much inferior to Xiao Xun Er. It was impossible for Li Chen to not be interested in her. However, this woman had become Yun Yun's disciple and was very arrogant. It was very unlikely for him to use his feelings to get her.
However, if he were to use the Mind Awakening Pill on her body, Li Chen would still be somewhat unwilling. After all, it was not very useful. However, if he were to give it to Yun Yun to use, it was likely that the effect would be very good. It should be known that the Misty Cloud Sect had helped Li Chen a lot during the early stages. Although the person in charge of the Misty Cloud Sect was actually Yun Yun's teacher, Li Chen only needed to borrow a little of it.
It was already afternoon when Li Chen and Xiao Mei came out of the courtyard. This was because the so-called guests had already arrived. Otherwise, the two of them would have stayed in the room for the whole day. As long as Xiao Mei relaxed a little, the two of them would fight again. In half a day, Li Chen tried all the positions he knew.
"Xiao Yan, you are really unlucky.”Li Chen smiled as he walked towards the meeting hall.
Although they couldn't go in to listen, it wasn't a big problem to wait outside. Only important figures of the family could go in such a situation.
Today, Xiao Yan had just been abused by Li Chen. After that, he met his fiancée Nalan Yanran, who had arranged for him to marry her before his birth, to break off the engagement. Moreover, she had even humiliated him to her heart's content. Although Xiao Yan would definitely act like the original novel and set a date to go to the Misty Cloud Sect a few years later, it was impossible for him to succeed with Li Chen around.
Li Chen brought Xiao Mei to a corner and said softly,""Mei 'er, let's just wait here and watch a good show.”
"Um..." Xiao Mei looked at Li Chen with a blissful expression on her face. It was obvious that Xiao Mei was happy as long as she was with Li Chen.
However, the manner in which the two of them were whispering to each other had also attracted quite a number of unfriendly gazes. It should be known that quite a number of people already knew about the arrival of these so-called distinguished guests from the Misty Cloud Sect. Hence, there were only a small number of people who came to watch the show. Moreover, Xiao Mei was also a great beauty. Although she was not as ethereal as Xun Er, she still had quite a number of admirers.
Li Chen wasn't very famous, but there were still some people who recognized him. The last time in the library pavilion, Li Chen had left a very deep impression on them, but it wasn't a good impression.
"Mei 'er." Li Chen smiled and said,"Look at the way they look at me. It seems that I have to be more careful in the future. Otherwise, I'm afraid there will be a lot of trouble."”
Hearing Li Chen's words, Xiao Mei said,"Of course not. I'll only be yours. No one can compare to you.”
However, this girl's coquettish appearance was indeed more attractive. Moreover, under Li Chen's nourishment for the past two days, Xiao Mei's so-called childishness had long disappeared. In its place was a mature and beautiful feeling. This also caused the eyes of the people around to change. They looked at Li Chen with a hint of killing intent.
However, at this moment, a group of people walked out of the meeting hall. Everyone's gaze was attracted over. A group of people dressed in the same clothes surrounded a man and a woman like stars surrounding the moon. The woman was naturally Nalan Yanran. Li Chen observed her for a moment.
This girl was indeed very pretty. She had a head full of long hair and her clothes were also very simple. It was only a pure white dress with the Misty Cloud Sect's symbol on it. However, from the looks of it, this girl was somewhat similar to Xun Er. She gave one the feeling of a snow lotus.
That man was of course the person Yun Yun sent to protect Nalan Yanran. However, he was already so old and still had this kind of strength. He would only be like this for the rest of his life.
"Miss Nalan, then we'll send you here.”The Xiao clan's grand elder respectfully said from the side.
"Mhm, sorry to trouble you." Nalan Yanran's pleasant voice sounded,"Help me tell Uncle Xiao. I'm sorry about this, but we really don't belong to the same world.”
Upon hearing this, the First Elder's expression was also very ugly. However, he only nodded lightly and said,"Although the engagement has been canceled this time around, it is only because Xiao Yan did not have the fortune. You cannot blame others.”
Although the First Elder also did not like Xiao Yan, although it was because of Xiao Zhan, this slap was after all a slap to the face of the Xiao clan. However, the First Elder knew that the Misty Cloud Sect could not be provoked. He could only grit his teeth and swallow it.
"But this young man is still a little arrogant.”Ge Ye, who was protecting Nalan Yanran, coldly said,"That qi-gathering elixir is enough to make up for all this.”
Although the First Elder was also coveting that medicinal pill, his grandson, Xiao Ning, had already died in Li Chen's hands. Hence, it was not that useful now. However, this person in front of him could not be provoked. It should be known that the reason why the engagement was canceled today was because of the Misty Cloud Sect's might. The Xiao clan had no choice but to lower their heads.
"Qi-gathering elixir?"
"Those are extremely precious medicinal pills.”
Ge Ye's words were also heard by the surrounding people, and instantly, discussions sounded.
