Volume 1, Chapter 24, Strength and Deterrence

Qingyang City, the Liu family's residence.

There were more than a dozen people in a large hall. On the nanmu chair in the center of the hall, a pale and slightly weak-looking figure was sitting on it. Liu Huabai looked at Xiao Yan sitting below and smiled.

He opened his mouth and asked:

"I wonder where fellow Daoist Xiao Yan lives?"

When Xiao Yan heard this, he knew that the other party wanted to know the value of his bet. Otherwise, how could he explain it to his family? You must know that Liu Huabai used his family as a bet to protect Xiao Yan, but if he failed in the end, the price would be huge.

It's not something he can bear. Even if the entire family is compensated, he probably won't be able to make up for his fault.

Xiao Yan did not answer immediately, but first glanced at everyone in the hall. Most of these people were elders and more outstanding descendants of the Liu family. They had also heard about the upcoming war between the two families, and

It was all caused by this outsider named Xiao Yan, and they could probably guess the reason why the clan leader risked the whole clan to protect Xiao Yan. Therefore, there was a look of hope on their faces. Xiao Yan glanced at

After going through it again, he turned to Liu Huabai and replied with a smile:

"I'm just a casual cultivator in the next generation. I only have the strength I have now because I encountered some opportunities. I don't have a definite place to stay."

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall immediately became commotion. The reason why they were able to wait here quietly was because of Xiao Yan's affirmation of the power behind him. But now, this kid is basically nothing

None, it was just pretentious. Even Liu Huabai, the clan leader's face changed slightly when he heard this, but it stabilized the next moment because he saw the faint confidence on the corner of Xiao Yan's mouth.

This smile, this kind of calm and confident smile, was not the first time he had seen it, and Liu Huabai always felt that there seemed to be some meaning in this smile that he could not see, which he could not

He saw clearly and dared to use his family as a bet for the real reason. He had this kind of smile when he faced the two heads of the Wu family at the inn, but at this moment, he was still so calm. The smile on his lips was definitely not pretentious.

, this boy is absolutely extraordinary!

Thinking of this, Liu Huabai was determined. He slapped the table made of fine nanmu with his broad palm. As the wood chips flew in all directions, a loud noise was heard throughout the hall, and the noisy hall instantly became silent.

When he came down, everyone was glaring at Xiao Yan, but they didn't dare to say anything. Liu Huabai looked at the quiet people, and an aura from the superiors rose up, making everyone below him become one of them.

Shocked, his eyes involuntarily focused on Liu Huabai.

Liu Huabai looked at the people who were looking at him, then took a deep look at Xiao Yan sitting below, and finally said:

"Although fellow Taoist Xiao Yan is alone, he has been very kind to me. Now the Wu family wants to annex my Liu family, and fellow Taoist Xiao Yan is also the enemy of the Wu family. How can I sit idly by and ignore it, let alone

Even if the Wu family really doesn't touch the Liu family within five years, can the Liu family really increase its strength to compete with the Wu family within five years? Therefore, I decided to join forces with fellow Taoist Xiao Yan to fight against the Wu family.

If we win, the Liu family will live forever in Qingyang City. If we lose, the Wu family will be severely injured and unable to stand in Qingyang City! I wonder if I, the son of the Liu family, dare to fight with me and the Wu family.

, destroy his Wu family and revive the glory of my Liu family!"

Liu Huabai became more and more excited as he spoke, and even roared. As soon as he spoke these impassioned words, everyone in the entire hall shouted in unison:

"Fight! Fight! Fight..."

This also made Xiao Yan sigh and nod. When Liu Huabai saw Xiao Yan nodding, Liu Huabai's eyes narrowed slightly. This attitude towards things was like that of an old senior.

The feeling of praising a junior made him startled. Could it be that this Xiao Yan is an old monster who has lived for hundreds of years?

There are always some old-timers in this world who like to use some secret methods to change themselves back to their youthful appearance, so that they can pretend to be pigs and eat tigers among the crowd, which makes everyone feel angry and helpless. Now Liu Huabai suddenly thought of this and joined forces with Xiao Yan

Liu Huabai's previous actions made Liu Huabai more and more excited. If Xiao Yan was really a senior who pretended to be a pig and ate the tiger, he would definitely be able to deal with Liu Huabai by doing all his family's efforts to keep Xiao Yan.

When the family develops a good impression, it will be the time for the Liu family to rise!

"Bang!"

Suddenly, there was a sound of breaking the door, and five old men in white clothes and gray hair walked into the hall. Suddenly, everyone in the hall gave way, and the five people walked up to Liu Huabai. The old man headed by them walked towards Liu Huabai.

A glimmer of light shot out from his eyes, he looked at Liu Huabai and said:

"Master, I don't think so. As long as the Wu family allows the Liu family to rest and recuperate for five years, the master's strength may not be improved. What's more, the master is now recovering strongly. In five years, the Liu family will still be able to stand in Qingyang City.

, but now the head of the family wants to gamble with the family for a junior whom he doesn’t know at all, head of the family, you are really making a big gamble!"

The faces of everyone in the hall changed when they heard this, and they looked at Liu Huabai with heavy suspicion in their eyes. The old man also narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Liu Huabai with sharp eyes, but Liu Huabai

Bai Wenyan ignored them, but looked at Xiao Yan, who was sitting below with a plain expression. Xiao Yan saw Liu Huabai looking at him and smiled slightly, then stood up and looked at the five old men, saying

He said calmly:

"Master Liu, these five people are all elders of your Liu family, right?"

Liu Huabai frowned slightly when he heard this, but he nodded in agreement and said to Xiao Yan:

"The person in the middle is the great elder of my Liu family. His strength has reached the peak of the Seven-Star Douzong. He is the strongest person in my Liu family besides me. The other four are also elders of my Liu family, and they are all very powerful.

Su Su, they are also strong men of the Douzong, and they are the mainstay of my Liu family, but it is a pity..."

Liu Huabai originally became more and more excited as he spoke, but in the end, he still fell down with a sense of loneliness. Xiao Yan disapproved when he heard this and looked at the five elders, but one of them stopped when he saw Xiao Yan's gaze coming towards him.

He snorted coldly and said sarcastically:

"Where did you come from? Ignorant young man, I advise you to leave my Liu family as soon as possible. Don't cause trouble for my Liu family again, otherwise I will kill you immediately! Humph!" At the end of the words, the elder still said

He looked at Liu Huabai sitting on the main seat with very dissatisfied eyes.

Xiao Yan saw all this in his eyes, with a slight cold arc at the corner of his mouth, Xiao Yan suddenly said mockingly to Liu Huabai:

"Master Liu, these elders of your Liu family seem to be very dissatisfied with you, the master, so I will discipline you for you." Xiao Yan said this very plainly, but Liu Huabai listened.

His ears were like thunder from the sky, and his heart was extremely shocked. Just when he was about to take action, he saw the elders burst into laughter, their faces changed slightly, and Liu Huabai couldn't help but cursed secretly in his heart:

"A few old immortals are like this and still can't see clearly. If this Xiao Yan is really just an ordinary person, would I still behave like this to befriend him? What a bunch of stupid pigs!"

"boom!"

As soon as Liu Huabai finished speaking, the laughter of the five elders suddenly disappeared, replaced by a roar that resounded throughout the hall. Everyone looked at Xiao Yan with shock on their faces, and their eyes were full of disbelief.

, just now, Xiao Yan just waved his sleeves, and the five strongest men in Qingyang City were blown away, and they hit the beams and columns in the main hall. This sudden attack

This scene immediately made everyone in the Liu family realize that this young man who seemed to be about the same age as them was actually a super strong man, whose strength was at least above Dou Zun, but Liu Huabai looked at it in shock and helplessness.

Looking at Xiao Yan, he had already expected that Xiao Yan was not an ordinary person, but he did not expect that Xiao Yan was so strong. Fortunately, he did not provoke him like these old guys. Otherwise, there would be no need for tomorrow, and I am afraid that the Liu family would be in trouble today.

To be destroyed in one day.

Xiao Yan looked at the five elders of the Liu family with indifferent eyes, let out a cold snort, and with a thought, restrained the five elders of the Liu family in the air, reached out with his palm, and tried to grab them with one claw.

"Senior, wait a minute!"

When Liu Huabai saw that Xiao Yan was about to kill the five elders of his family, he felt very anxious and shouted to Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan frowned slightly when he heard this, and then snorted coldly. The five elders of the Liu family were like broken sacks.

After being thrown out of the hall by Xiao Yan, Liu Huabai breathed a sigh of relief, stood up, looked at Xiao Yan, bowed and said:

"Thank you, senior, for not killing them. The junior will be punished severely according to family rules afterwards." Liu Huabai spoke without any hesitation, and he called for people to carry the five elders into the family prison, waiting for Liu Huabai to surrender.

Sin, when Liu Huabai sent people to carry the five elders away, he angrily told his subordinates to move faster, saying that he did not want them to catch the eyes of senior Xiao Yan, but everyone curled their lips after hearing this.

Again, this made Liu Huabai, the elder of the Liu family, blush slightly. However, for the safety of the five elders, Liu Huabai endured it with a blushing face.

"I wonder if the seniors are satisfied with what the juniors are doing? If they are dissatisfied, the juniors will immediately ask the servants to carry them back and let the seniors do whatever they want." Liu Huabai saw that Xiao Yan was still expressionless and bowed to him.

Xiao Yan asked.

"It's okay. I just hope that the head of the Liu family can manage the family well in the future and not cause trouble for his family again. I hope that what happened today will not happen again in the future. Otherwise, the head of the Liu family must know the consequences in his heart, and it may not be possible by then.

It’s like this today.”

Xiao Yan's words were very plain, but Liu Huabai couldn't help but feel shocked. Xiao Yan was right. He could let the five elders of the Liu family go like this, which already showed that Xiao Yan was generous enough. If

If it were anyone else, I'm afraid the entire Liu family would be in ruins now. When Liu Huabai thought of this, he cursed in his heart, but in the end he sighed slightly and murmured:

"It seems that it's time for the family to straighten things out."

Although the voice was not loud, there was no one here who was not a powerful person. This voice was enough for them. After hearing this, everyone in the hall started to stir up. A family storm was already inevitable.

Avoided.

Xiao Yan ignored the changes on everyone's faces, turned around, and walked towards the outside of the hall. Seeing this, Liu Huabai hurriedly followed Xiao Yan and wanted to lead the way, but Xiao Yan didn't seem to want Liu Huabai.

The intention of leading the way was to move forward on his own, as if he was wandering around the Liu Mansion, but Liu Huabai couldn't help but feel a little shocked in his heart. The direction Xiao Yan was walking in was his bedroom. Could it be

Xiao Yan... This made Liu Huabai a little angry. Even if you, Xiao Yan, are a senior and a strong man and don't take my small family seriously, I am also the head of the family anyway. You actually did something like this.

Even Liu Huabai couldn't stand such behavior. If he didn't know Xiao Yan's ultimate goal, Liu Huabai would have fought Xiao Yan long ago.

"Bang!"

Xiao Yan waved his sleeves, and Liu Huabai's closed door was blasted open by an invisible force, revealing several pieces of furniture and beds. Xiao Yan took the lead to enter, followed closely by Liu Huabai with a gloomy face.

As soon as Liu Huabai entered, the wooden door, which was also made of fine nanmu, slammed shut, shutting the two of them inside. Liu Huabai's face changed slightly and he looked at Xiao Yan, but Xiao Yan was sitting there.

He walked to the coffee table, without even looking at Liu Huabai, he filled the jade teacup on the table with tea, took a small sip, and then said to Liu Huabai, who had a gloomy look on his face:

"I just saw that your breath is unstable, your blood is weak, and there are hidden wounds in your body. Liu Xiang has found medicinal materials for you before. It must be that the alchemist in your family is not good at helping you completely eliminate the sequelae in your body, right?"

Liu Huabai was startled when he heard this, and then looked at Xiao Yan with a puzzled expression and nodded in agreement. Xiao Yan nodded slightly, and then said:

"For Liu Xiang's sake, go over, sit on the bed, take off your shirt, and I will directly help you eliminate the hidden dangers in your body."

When Liu Huabai heard the words, he quickly followed the instructions. Xiao Yan smiled slightly and walked over to help him heal his injuries.
