Xiao Zhan asked curiously: "What is the average cultivation level of people who participate in the deserted road?"
Xiao Sheng said calmly: "The lowest level of cultivation must reach the peak of the Mysterious God Realm. Warriors like the Half-Step Origin Realm are everywhere. Even if you encounter the Origin Realm, it is not an incredible thing."
After Xiao Sheng said this, he ignored Xiao Zhan and seemed to devote himself wholeheartedly to blacksmithing.
Xiao Zhan heard Xiao Wu coming as soon as he left the workshop. This boy appeared so quickly. It was most likely that things in the Demon Hunting Forest had taken a turn for the better, which made him very confused.
"Brother Xiao."
Xiao Qiqing was chatting with Xiao Wu, and she smiled sweetly when she saw Xiao Zhan.
"You guys are coming here so quickly. Is there any latest progress in the Demon Hunting Forest?"
Xiao Zhan gave Xiao Qiqing a smile.
Xiao Wu couldn't wait to say: "Brother can never imagine how things will develop."
Before Xiao Zhan could answer, Xiao Qiqing said hurriedly: "What happened was really unexpected. Faced with the Xiao family's aggression, the Wu family did not make any resistance and directly transferred a large mine close to the Xiao family's territory."
Xiao Zhan had a look of surprise on his face when he heard this. He had been following his father forging for many years and knew more about minerals than ordinary people. Naturally, he knew the value of the mine transferred by the Wu family.
"The Wu family really transferred that mine to our Xiao family?"
Xiao Wu looked at Xiao Qiqing with a wry smile. He had no chance to whet Xiao Zhan's appetite, so he couldn't help but nodded and said: "The Wu family simply transferred this mine to the Xiao family, but specified the transfer The target is the eldest brother, and they are definitely not doing this with good intentions. The younger brother is worried that the family owner will not hand over this mine to the eldest brother. If the eldest brother wants to get this mine at that time, he is afraid that he will have to fall out with the family owner directly. "
Xiao Zhan frowned. He didn't care whether he could get the mine. What really confused him was that the Wu family's reaction was completely unreasonable. Even if they knew they were in the wrong, they shouldn't throw out such a huge deal all at once. Bait, this shows that they are eager to settle this matter.
Is it just because of fear of revenge from the Xiao family?
Xiao Zhan felt that the real purpose of the Wu family might be to see the Xiao family fall into civil strife. Only by resolving the grievances between the two families as quickly as possible would everyone in the Xiao family turn their attention to Xiao Yiwu. Xiao Zhan knew that if he now If he fights for the ownership of the mine, he will most likely get into endless trouble, and he simply does not have the strength to hold on to it. Whether he wants to take it back or not, he has to ask his father before doing anything.
"Did the Elders Council deprive Xiao Yiwu of his status as a young master?"
"Hey! I heard that the Elders Council has directly deprived Xiao Yiwu of his Young Master status, and is now planning to select a new Young Master. As long as the eldest brother participates, this matter is basically a certainty."
Xiao Zhan was stunned. This news really surprised him. Xiao Yiwu's family controlled the Elders' House. If they wanted to protect him, it was hard to say whether they could pull Xiao Yiwu down.
"What do you mean, head of the family?"
Xiao Wu shook his head and sighed: "The head of the family nodded directly and agreed, which was beyond everyone's expectations."
Xiao Zhan sneered: "They don't think that Xiao Yiwu is not the young master, so what happened in the Demon Hunting Forest can be revealed at once, right?"
Xiao Wu smiled bitterly and said: "The Council of Elders ordered Xiao Yiwu to retreat and reflect on his past, and he will not be able to come out for a year. They really have a wishful thinking. When the desolate road opens in a year, this kid will come out again. At that time, as long as he can Once you get a place to enter the Heavenly Courtyard, all the mistakes you made in the past can be wiped out."
"Can Uncle Eight agree to this?"
"Of course I can't agree. Uncle Eight fell out on the spot, but unfortunately he was directly suppressed by the elder. He is currently locked up in the inner hall of the Xiao family. It's hard to say when he will be able to come out."
Xiao Zhan raised his eyebrows and immediately arrested the people who opposed the most fiercely. If he continued to coerce and induce others, maybe this matter could be suppressed.
"The Fifth Master is the biological father of the Eighth Uncle. He is famous for his hot temper. Now someone not only killed his two grandsons, but also imprisoned his son. If he comes back, things will not go well.
.”
Xiao Wu frowned and said, "Fifth Grandpa went into the desert and waited for his old man to come back. I'm afraid everything will be too late."
"Yes, if we wait for Xiao Yiwu to enter the imperial court in a year, it will indeed be too late."
Xiao Zhan shook his head secretly, and his strong intuition told him that the Fifth Master was likely to come back soon, but he was not interested in the civil strife in the Xiao family. Instead, he continued: "How will the qualifications for Huanglu be distributed?"
"I heard that there will be a big competition among all the survivors who participated in the Demon Hunting Forest trial. It will take place in about three months. The top eight will get the quota to participate in the deserted road. If the eldest brother can defeat Xiao Yiwu, the eight
I can definitely get one point for each quota, but it’s a pity, I’m afraid I won’t be able to participate.”
Xiao Wu was a little depressed. His strength was still too weak. Even if he was qualified to participate in the deserted road, he would probably die miserably. It was better not to join in the fun.
A smile appeared on Xiao Zhan's face. If it were to be a competition, he would be absolutely sure to get a spot.
…
"Dad, is this the main residence of the Xiao family?"
Xiao Rufeng looked at the imposing Xiao family gate and looked very excited.
Xiao Yuan was dressed in a green robe, and his eyes fell on the Xiao family's door. The look in his eyes seemed a bit complicated, and the past was like smoke. He did not expect that he would have the opportunity to set foot in the Xiao family again, which made him immersed in the past for a while.
After hearing Xiao Rufeng's words, Xiao Yuan calmed down and said, "This is the main residence of the Xiao family. It has a history of more than two thousand years since it was built."
Xiao Rufeng's eyes sparkled with excitement and said: "Father, you can rest assured that one day in the future, the child will definitely take over the Xiao family and become the real head of the family with sole power."
Xiao Yuan smiled slightly and said: "It is not easy for you to do this. Your third uncle's lineage can be said to dominate the Xiao family now, otherwise a idiot like Xiao Yiwu would not be able to become the young master of the Xiao family."
Xiao Rufeng said disapprovingly: "The situation is different now. Xiao Yiwu made such a big mistake and heard that he has been deprived of his Young Master status by the Presbyterian Council. Is there anyone else in their lineage who has this qualification besides him?"
Xiao Yuan said calmly: "It's useless to talk more now. Let's see how the people in power in the Xiao family will react when they know I'm back."
The two father and son had no intention of concealing their identities and directly revealed it to the guard. Soon the news reached Xiao Mou's ears, which only made him stand up in shock.
"You said the second brother is back?"
Xiao Mou's expression changed several times. Back then, the position of the head of the Xiao family should have belonged to the second brother. Because of something, the second brother left the Xiao family, so he took the opportunity to become the head of the Xiao family. Now that the second brother is back, for him
