"In that case, I'll leave my daughter to clan leader Xiao and everyone else.”
In the meeting hall of the Xiao Family, a mighty middle-aged man cupped his hands at Xiao Zhan and the elders of the Xiao Family and said politely. Beside him stood a little girl about four or five years old.
"Lord Gu can rest assured that the Xiao clan will definitely take good care of Young Lady Xun Er.”
Xiao Zhan quickly answered respectfully. The elders of the Xiao Family standing beside Xiao Zhan also promised him repeatedly with fawning expressions on their faces.
"Xun Er, you should obediently stay in the Xiao family in the future. Father will take his leave first. Farewell, everyone."
The mighty middle-aged man said a few words to the little girl, then said goodbye to Xiao Zhan and the others. Xiao Zhan and the others hurriedly sent him off.
"Go and call Third Young Master over. Tell him that I have something to discuss with him.”
After sending off the middle-aged man, Xiao Zhan and the others returned to the meeting hall. Xiao Zhan looked at the timid little girl and thought for a moment. Then, he ordered a servant outside the door.
"Yes, Patriarch." The servant agreed and quickly headed towards Donghuang Ziye's room.
"Third Young Master, the Patriarch is looking for you. He is currently in the meeting hall and wants you to go over immediately.”The servant came to Donghuang Ziye's room and knocked on the door before saying.
"Alright, I'll go over now." Donghuang Ziye agreed and headed towards the meeting hall.
"Father, why are you looking for me?"
After arriving at the meeting hall, Donghuang Ziye asked his father, Xiao Zhan. Actually, when he first came in, he already knew what was going on because he saw the timid little girl. He thought that this should be Aroma.
"Zi Ye, this is Miss Xun Er. In the future, she will be a member of my Xiao family. Bring her to familiarize herself with the Xiao family first before bringing her to the room that has been arranged.”
Xiao Zhan looked at Donghuang Ziye and smiled. This kid was a little mischievous and had been quite sensible since he was born. Moreover, he was about the same age as Aroma, so it was most suitable to teach him this matter.
"Yes, Father. Sister Xun Er, let's go. I'll bring you to familiarize yourself with our Xiao family.”
Donghuang Ziye nodded and walked to Xun Er's side. He held Xun Er's small hand and walked out. Xun Er was a little shy and wanted to break free but did not succeed. She could only be held by Donghuang Ziye and walked out.
"Haha, this kid."
Xiao Zhan saw this scene and scolded with a smile. However, he was thinking that he should quickly discuss it with his wife. After all, he knew Xun Er's true identity. As the head of the Xiao family, he had to consider many things.
"Where are you taking me? Uncle Xiao wants you to introduce me to the Xiao family?”
Seeing Donghuang Ziye bringing her to the Xiao family, Xun Er stopped and asked with some doubt.
"There will be plenty of time after you get familiar with the Xiao family. I'll take you to see the outside world first and eat cotton candy.”
Donghuang Ziye smiled and continued to hold Xun Er's hand as they walked out.
"What's cotton candy? Is it delicious?"
Xun Er asked curiously. As the daughter of the Gu tribe leader, she had basically never been to the outside world. As a result, she had no idea what cotton candy was, let alone whether it tasted good.
"Of course it's delicious. You'll be able to eat it in a while.”
Donghuang Ziye smiled slightly. It seemed that his guess was right. As the little princess of the Gu clan, perhaps she was born with an identity that countless people envied, but she also had the restrictions that this identity brought.
"Give me two marshmallows, purple ones.”
Donghuang Ziye brought Xun Er to the street and came to the place where cotton candy was sold. He said to the hawker who sold cotton candy.
"Alright, take it."
The peddler skillfully took two purple cotton candy and handed it to Donghuang Ziye. Then, he took the copper coins that Donghuang Ziye handed over.
The currency on the Dou Qi continent was divided into copper coins, silver coins, and gold coins. One gold coin was equivalent to 100 silver coins. 1 silver coin =100 copper coins.
"Here, eat."
Handing one to Aroma, Donghuang Ziye took a bite of his cotton candy in front of her, indicating that she should eat the cotton candy like him.
"So sweet, so delicious."
Looking at Donghuang Ziye's encouraging gaze, Xun Er finally picked up her cotton candy and placed it by her mouth. She gently took a bite and as the sweetness gradually spread in her mouth, Xun Er said happily.
"Hehe, let's go. There's still a lot of good food and fun waiting for us.”
Seeing Xun Er's smile, Donghuang Ziye also smiled slightly. He was now a child who was similar to Xun Er. He would let him experience this kind of life more.
……
"I really have to thank you for today, Brother Zi Ye. You allowed Xun Er to see many things that she had never seen before, and she also ate many things that she had never eaten before. Xun Er is really happy today.”
In front of Xun Er's room, Xun Er had a smile on her face as she thanked Donghuang Ziye.
"As long as Xun Er is happy, I will bring you there in the future if I have time.”Donghuang Ziye replied.
"En, then goodbye, Brother Ziye." Xun Er happily nodded.
"En."
Donghuang Ziye turned around, waved his hand, and walked towards his room.
"Two Dou Huangs?"
Donghuang Zi Ye silently thought in his heart. He discovered that there were two Dou Huang class experts beside Xun Er. These two experts were a man and a woman. The woman had been following them today, while the man had appeared in Aroma's room when he returned.
The reason why Donghuang Zi Ye was able to discover these two Dou Huangs was all thanks to his peak Yuanying spiritual level. With his peak Yuanying spiritual level, there was very little that could hide from him.
The Gu clan was indeed worthy of being the top faction on the Dou Qi continent. They were actually able to casually send two Dou Huangs as guards. It was likely because the Jia Ma Empire was considered a small place. Otherwise, they would definitely send an even stronger expert to protect Xun Er.
It should be known that in the Jia Ma Empire, a Dou Huang could already be considered a top expert. If a Dou Huang were to appear in your clan, your clan would be able to become one of the strongest factions in the Jia Ma Empire.
The people that the Gu clan casually sent out were already the top experts of the Jia Ma Empire. From this, one could see just how powerful the Gu clan was. Compared to the three great factions of Wu Tan City, the Xiao clan appeared very laughable. Although the Xiao clan was known as one of the three great clans of Wu Tan City, they did not even have a single elite Dou Ling.
Although the Xiao clan was known as one of the three great clans in Wu Tan City, the strongest one was merely a 9 star Da Dou Shi. The other two clans were similar to the Xiao clan. The strongest people were a few Da Dou Shi.
Compared to a Dou Huang, the gap was not just ordinary. A slightly stronger Dou Ling might be able to destroy the Xiao clan, let alone an expert Dou Huang who was much stronger than Dou Ling.
Since he was born into this family, he naturally had to make this family strong. However, many of the younger generation of the Xiao family were arrogant and short-sighted. He thought that his family was already one of the three major families in Wu Tan City. He thought that this was already very powerful.
Little did they know that there was always someone better than them. Even in the Jia Ma Empire, the Xiao clan was only a small faction like an ant, let alone the entire Dou Qi continent.
