Two Hundred Chapters: Status
The land of the Xiao family
If you say that the most difficult thing in the world to sit on, it is probably this second chair.
Because people will always remember the story of the first place, and the second place, although it is also good, will not be remembered.
And the more difficult position to sit on than the second place is the top of its head, which has two tied firsts.
In this case, the difficulty is not enough to explain the situation, and it should be regarded as arduous.
From time to time, two behemoths clashed with each other, and in the end they shook hands and made peace, but the innocent second place disappeared.
The Xiao family didn't want to be the second to disappear, so he had to work extra hard, if the other clans in Xiling were of little use to the Tang Mi and the two clans, the Xiao family was the object of the Tang Mi family that had been wooing.
But the witty Xiao family has always remained neutral, taking root in the east of Xiling, and there are junjie in every generation.
And the most resounding name of the last Xiao family is the current patriarch - Xiao Jinlin.
In fact, compared with the wealthy, the biggest difference between the small and medium-sized families is that the high-level of the small and medium-sized families are all warriors, they rely on battles to compete for resources, and the power and control are not as important to them as a strong warrior. To put it simply, their patriarch can only be held by the strongest.
Even the domineering Xiao family has not jumped out of this category, so even if Xiao Jinlin is nearly eighty years old, he still holds the position of the patriarch of the Xiao clan, because so far, no one in the Xiao family is stronger than him.
People from Chengzhou, the four heads of the family in Xicheng died, and the Xu family challenged the ring of Longzhou, as if everything had come together this year, and the threshold of the Xiao family had never been so lively, and they had been receiving various family owners, but so far Xiao Jinlin has not made any statement.
Whether it was the battle between the two new cities, or the battle in the west of the city, or the current ring, Xiao Jinlin did not say a word, and all the family owners who came to visit him returned in vain.
Xiao Jinlin has two sons, the eldest son Xiao Zheng and the second son Xiao Qi, which are taken from the meaning of winning with odds in the Art of War.
The dignified Xiao clan patriarch has only two sons, so he naturally invests his energy on the brothers, maybe he is too strict, the eldest son Xiao Zheng is disgusted with martial arts, and puts all his thoughts on the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and the side door of cockfighting and lackeys.
Fortunately, Xiao Qi was obsessed with martial arts, and naturally became the young patriarch of the Xiao family, and he was highly valued by the Xiao family.
And this time, the one who received the four small families in the west of the city was the young patriarch of the Xiao family.
In the conference hall, Xiao Qi sat upright.
He has a pair of unfathomable phoenix eyes, a very beautiful figure, wears an ochre satin coat, a dragon soul white pendant tied around his waist, a long flowing hair, tied behind his head by a jade crown, and has a polite appearance, but no head of the family dares to underestimate him, because this seemingly polite middle-aged man does not know how many strong people's lives have been contaminated under his hands.
And Feng Lianggong originally wanted to see Xiao Jinlin, but he only saw Xiao Qi, so he could only talk about the Shura martial arts arena: "Young patriarch, the Xu clan is menacing, and more than 100 mortal martial artists have died in just two days, and now I just want the Xiao clan to send martial artists to fight and save some face for my Xiling!"
"Patriarch Feng is polite, Xiling has two Tang Mi clans, why use my Xiao family to make a move, it is rumored that this Xu son is the nephew of the first seat of the Tang family's martial arts, although the words are arrogant, I think it is just to see what my Xiling martial artist can do, and he will leave in a while, please go back. Xiao Qi stretched out his hand and waved towards the door, chasing the guest.
Feng Lianggong and the other three heads of the family, hearing this obviously perfunctory remark, could only give up their hands and retreat.
Just as the four family heads left the Xiao clan's land, a sturdy old man flashed out of the screen behind Xiao Qi, who was Xiao Jinlin.
"Father. Xiao Qi stood up, respectfully relinquished his position, and saluted the old man.
The old man nodded at Xiao Qi and sat in Xiao Qi's place with a gloomy face.
Xiao Qi was very happy in his heart and asked, "Why did you avoid the head of the four small families in the west of the city, and let me expel the guests as soon as possible." ”
The old man glanced at Xiao Qi and knew that he had a lot of doubts in his heart, and replied: "These four families are sensitive, if it is not a situation where the clan will be wiped out and killed, don't get close." ”
"The Tang clan is acting so domineering, the four fierce realm family masters, and hundreds of mortal realm martial artists will kill if they say they will kill them, can my Xiao clan sit idly by and ignore my father!? If we have been ignoring the Tang family's domineering, when he aims the butcher knife at my Xiao clan, who will speak for us?"
This is what Xiao Qi doesn't understand the most, his father won't not understand the truth of the death of his lips and teeth, but this time instead of standing up for the four small families, he also took the initiative to retreat, which is contrary to the Xiao family's previous neutral and fair position.
The old man shook his head and sighed: "The Tang clan is domineering, if you want to rank the Xiling martial artists, in terms of domineering, Tang Sen should be ranked outside the hundred." ”
Then why did he kill the head of the four small families, but he didn't even give a word. Xiao Qi didn't want to believe his father's judgment, but he wanted to know that if it was really as Xiao Jinlin said, Tang Sen was not domineering, then how would the rumors of Xiling and this incident be explained.
"Feng Lianggong, they feel that they are victims, and you feel the same way, but who will tell me, if Tang Sen wants to move the four small families in the west of the city, why is he the only one who makes a move, and then he ignores the four of them?" the old man asked rhetorically with a wise light in his eyes.
He was actually the most concerned about this matter, so he collected a lot of information, and among these fragmented information, he finally pieced together a relatively restored truth, that is, the battle outside Xiling City, Tang Sen was not wrong.
Before the appearance of the first seat of this martial arts, the four small families were the truly domineering party.
He didn't shy away from Xiao Qi with this information, but his very dependent child did not come to the same conclusion as himself, if it was the eldest son Xiao Zheng, with his careful mind, he would definitely be able to peel off the cocoon to see the truth, but it was a pity that Xiao Zheng's force was low, and he was embarrassed. The old man sighed secretly in his heart.
Xiao Qi was a little bit by the old man, and reacted after realizing it: "Father is saying that Tang Sen's action is only on behalf of an individual, and it is not the fault party?"
The old man nodded, and suddenly asked, "What do you think of the Xu family of the Shura Martial Arts Pavilion?"
Xiao Qi still can't adapt to Xiao Jinlin's out-of-the-box thinking for so many years, obviously he is still saying one thing one second, and he will jump to another one second, which makes Xiao Qi, who has a focused personality, a little difficult to handle, but fortunately, what he asked about this time is also what he has been most concerned about recently.
Xiao Qifeng's eyes widened, his divine light was shining, his fighting intent was majestic, and his throat was full of excitement and whispered: "Peerless transformation, the name of the saint family is worthy of it!"
If it weren't for the fact that he had broken through the fierce realm, Xiao Qi really wanted to go on stage to fight Xu Laoying.
Because of the martial arts realm and martial arts techniques displayed by the other party, Xiao Qi, who was a martial arts idiot, was overjoyed and eager to fight.
Unlike all the sons of the family, Xiao Qi has only one dream since he was a child, and it has never changed, that is, to meet an amazing opponent, defeat, or, die!
