Here, Xiao Zhan and Xiao Han were discussing the future development of the Xiao family, while on the other side, a group of people from the Xiao family suddenly appeared as a surprise to a hidden gangster.
Feeling the chill emanating from the dagger pressed against his neck, Ling Ying felt that he seemed to be having some bad luck recently, because his usually invincible technique against his peers actually overturned today.
"Dark attribute technique?" Ling Ying was motionless at this time, staring closely at the figure holding the dagger.
The opponent is extremely ordinary. If placed in a crowd, he would have almost no sense of presence, but his strength... is obviously not ordinary.
"Which force sent you here? Don't tell me about the forces in the northwest continent. There are no such advanced techniques here." The person opposite said.
Ling Ying's skills are very stealthy. If he hadn't met his peers, he wouldn't have been caught so easily.
"Your Excellency is from the Xiao family. Please rest assured that I have no ill intentions towards the Xiao family."
Now Ling Ying was afraid that if the other party didn't pay attention, he would "die before leaving the battle", so he quickly explained.
"I know you have no ill intentions, otherwise you wouldn't be alive today. Do you think that the strong men and patriarchs of the clan are just free earners?"
The person opposite just laughed and said nonchalantly.
"Then can you put down this dagger first?" Ling Ying said cautiously.
"Xiao family, Xiao Wuye." The man opposite removed the dagger in his hand, played with it casually in his palm, and then put it back.
"My subordinate, Ling Ying, is responsible for the escort mission of my young lady." Ling Ying did not hide anything and told everything.
"Miss?" Xiao Wuye muttered, but didn't say anything. Since the clan leader didn't say much about this, he naturally wouldn't get to the bottom of it.
His attack on Ling Ying just now was just a subconscious move because he was happy to see Lie Xin and the latter's identity was unknown.
"Pay attention to your own behavior and don't run around in the Xiao family." Before leaving, Xiao Wuye warned again.
"Oh, what is this!" Ling Ying sighed as he looked at the figure who disappeared silently in front of him. This day is getting more and more sad. How many of you are from a rich family background, can you save some face for us?
?
…
"Mr. Ling, where were you just now?" Xun'er was no longer the sweet and cute person in front of Xiao Yan, but had a calmness and maturity that was not in line with his age.
There was a bit of dissatisfaction on the usually gentle face, and Ling Ying's appearance was a bit slow today.
"Alas, miss, the old servant was discovered again this time." Ling Ying knelt down on one knee, smiled bitterly, and said in a somewhat depressed tone.
"Huh? Didn't Uncle Xiao let you go?" Obviously, the matter of Ling Ying being tricked by Xiao Zhan was not hidden from Xun'er.
"This time it's another Xiao family member who practices similar techniques to me." Hearing this, Ling Ying became even more bitter. She wondered if she should ask the clan for instructions and find someone stronger.
Otherwise, what does it mean to be caught every once in a while?
"Are they the group of people who just returned to the Xiao family today?" Xun'er smelled an unusual smell and asked.
"Probably," Ling Ying replied, "After all, I am familiar with the auras of the members who are resident in the Xiao family, but this one is relatively unfamiliar."
"How strong is that person?" Xun'er's expression was a little solemn.
"It should be similar to me. It's just that he took advantage of my unpreparedness and attacked me suddenly to subdue me." Ling Ying felt that it was necessary to restore his image in the young lady's mind.
"Is the Xiao family so strong?" Xun'er initially discovered the tip of the iceberg of the Xiao family's strength hidden under the water.
"Well, miss, the Xiao family is not very strong, right?" Although Xiao Wuye defeated him, it was just a sneak attack, which doesn't mean anything. As for being captured by Xiao Zhan, Dou Huang was killed by Dou Zun
Find it incredible?
Shouldn't the Xiao family only have one strong Dou Zun? His strength is average even in Zhongzhou, let alone compared with them.
"Think about the skills you practice." Xun'er didn't say much, just reminded him.
Ling Ying was stunned at first, and then suddenly took a breath of cold air. His skills were at the intermediate level of the earth level! Not only was he proficient in concealment, but he was also not weak in perception.
Their cultivation levels are similar, but that person was able to detect and restrain him with one blow. Before that, he had not noticed anything, which meant that the fighting skills practiced by this person must not be weaker than his own.
And these were just the members of the Xiao family that he met by chance. The techniques they practiced were so advanced, so what about the people at higher levels?
It's not that Ling Ying is boasting. Although the Ancient Clan is a powerful clan with countless martial arts and fighting skills, there are really not many people who are higher than him.
The attributes of his skills are inherently partial, and their preciousness is comparable to those of high-level people. If it had not been given by the clan leader himself, he would never have been able to learn such advanced skills in his lifetime.
The ancient family has a great cause and a large number of members, but there are many monks and few monks. Unless your bloodline concentration is high enough, your talent is strong, there are people behind you and you have made outstanding contributions, there will be no advanced skills for you to practice.
"It shouldn't be. The Xiao clan has been in decline for a long time. How come there are so many high-level techniques?" Suddenly, the image of the Xiao family suddenly became mysterious in the minds of Xun'er and Ling Ying.
In fact, this was just a beautiful accident. Although Xiao Han provided the Xiao family with many high-level skills, there was only one middle-level Xuan-level skill like the shadow system.
Xiao Wuye's martial arts came from an adventure in the ruins, and he was accidentally inherited by a strong Dou Zun who was proficient in assassination.
It's just that obviously no one is here to answer your questions at this time.
"Mr. Ling, have you found out the strength of those people in the Xiao family today?" Finally, Xun'er decided not to dwell on this issue anymore and continued to ask.
"No", Ling Ying felt ashamed. This mission was not completed. She really failed the clan leader's expectations!
"They are very powerful, I don't dare to get too close. And..."
He was still caught.
"I can only feel that the strength and combat experience of these recently returned members of the Xiao family are far greater than those of the group of people stationed in the Xiao family. They have a heavy evil spirit on them and they must have experienced big scenes.
There seem to be a few peak Douzongs among them." Thinking of the several terrifying auras that I felt vaguely, I thought, those people are not far away from Douzong.
"Peak Dou Zong!?" Xun'er's voice changed obviously. The Xiao clan, which was said to have declined, still seemed to have some trump cards.
"But, brother Xiao Yan, he doesn't seem to know yet?" Xun'er suddenly covered his mouth and chuckled. At this time, Xun'er suddenly remembered a conversation with Xiao Yan's child. At that time, Xiao Yan's answer seemed a bit cute.
"Brother Xiao Yan, do you know your uncle's strength?" Xun'er asked with a "curious" look on his face.
"Father?" Xiao Yan was a little surprised as to why Xun'er would ask such a question, and he knew nothing about it.
After all, I have never seen Xiao Zhan take action, and there are no similar rumors, but I still answered based on my guess, "He should be a strong King of Fighters, right?"
What innocent children!
Not only Xiao Yan, but also through long-term contact with the children of the Xiao family, Xun'er discovered that they were completely unaware of the strength of their elders.
Xiao Yan's answer was already quite bold. Others, even the great elder's grandson Xiao Ning, only thought that his grandfather was just an ordinary fighting spirit.
It seems that the entire Xiao family has unanimously blocked relevant information from the younger generations.
