Chapter 66: Sophistry
"What do you mean by me doing it myself? I'm just going to inform my disciples. The Netherworld Ancestor's originally somewhat cold face was a little embarrassed, and he immediately said angrily.
"Hmph! I don't know you yet? This time to destroy the Zhao family is very important, you may not be able to go because of your face, but it does not prevent you from making some small moves in private. I think that when the phoenix fairy was trapped in Cangshu Mountain, didn't you say that you didn't care, but secretly sent someone to rescue. I just don't talk about those things, you think I don't know. ”
The Elephantless Daoist looked at the Netherworld Ancestor with different hearts, and couldn't help but sneer, and then muttered to himself as he walked: "I really don't know what the Phoenix Fairy likes about you, the Freedom Palace has arranged so many family affairs for her, but she has rejected them one by one." You old ghost, you don't hurt people a lot!"
Looking at the figure of the Elephant gradually moving away, the Netherworld Ancestor was stunned, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
......
Five days passed in a flash, and early this morning, Xiang Tian was invited to the main hall by everyone in the Wang family.
In these five days, Xiang Tian's travel has also been more or less restricted, although the Wang family said that it was due to the regulations, but he still felt that something was wrong.
What made Xiang Tian suspicious the most was Wang Yueyan's traces, except for the first day when he came, the rest of the time, the latter was like evaporating from the world, even if Xiang Tian secretly asked some servants and maids, they were not very clear, and couldn't help but make Xiang Tian a little anxious in his heart.
But fortunately, when Xiang Tian entered the Wang family, he secretly left two ghost servants outside for surveillance, and during this period of time, he did not find anything abnormal.
And today is the Wang family's special banquet for Xiang Tian, so the latter also changed into a brand-new gray-black robe, and hid some specially treated poison needles in the cuffs in case of emergencies.
Calculate the time, and the speed at which the sect comes to help is about to arrive, and then he will be able to let go of his hands and feet. As for now, Xiang Tian decided that it would be safer to observe it first.
......
The place where the royal family feasts is much worse than the main hall of the family, but it is also as luxurious as the kings of some small secular countries.
"Xiang Daoyou, it's good to rest these days, if there is any inconsiderate hospitality, please forgive me. As soon as Xiang Tian arrived in the hall, he saw a middle-aged man in a gray robe, who hurriedly got up and greeted him, and said apologetically.
"Under Wang Tao, he is the great elder of the Wang family, and if the head of the family has something to do today, I will be responsible for entertaining him. ”
"It turned out to be the Great Elder! Disrespectful and disrespectful, I didn't expect Xiang's arrival to alarm so many high-level members of the Wang family, and in the end, I had to bother you to greet you personally. Xiang Tian looked at the middle-aged man in front of him with a slightly pale face, looking like he had just recovered from a serious illness, and immediately laughed strangely.
"To say that the location of this Wang family is really good, the terrain is dangerous, and the aura is abundant, but it is an excellent place to cultivate. ”
"Hehe, Xiang Daoyou praised it, please here. A hint of astonishment flashed in the Great Elder's eyes, and he immediately returned to his normal path.
Xiang Tian also coughed twice and entered the inner hall directly, and the Great Elder looked at Xiang Tian's back walking in front of him, and there was a hint of complexity in his eyes.
After everyone sat down in turn, Xiang Tian glanced at the people present, in addition to the patriarch of the Wang family, Wang Yueyan's father Wang Xu, and the third elder Wang Song were all in the list. Some of the other faces looked quite unfamiliar, but the people present here were full of breath, hidden and hidden, and their cultivation was above the tenth level of Qi cultivation. Although Xiang Tianxiu was one of the best among the disciples in the same period, he still had a certain gap compared to this kind of old family.
"Although there is only one foundation building monk in Yue Yan's family, there are quite a few high-level Qi cultivation period cultivators, at least within thirty years, the Wang family will not show signs of decay. Looking at the cultivators of the Wang family who were here, Xiang Tian also had a plan in his heart.
"These days, I forgot to ask, I don't know how many people are in Xiang's nephew's family, what do their parents do? After everyone had eaten, Wang Tao on the seat glanced at Xiang Tian with a smile, and there was a hint of thinking that he was the son-in-law of the Wang family.
After hearing Grand Elder Wang Tao's words, Wang Xu and the Third Elder Wang Song's faces couldn't help but flash a trace of gloom, and they immediately returned to normal.
"Oh, yes. Before he entered the sect, he lost contact with his parents at home. As for relatives, hehe, don't mention this. However, since I worshiped the Netherworld Ancestor, his old man is just like his parents, and if I really want to count it, my master is my family. ”
Xiang Tian had already told the story he had made up, and when he talked about the Netherworld Ancestor, there was not much resistance in his heart. After all, after being a disciple of his own lineage, the ancestor never treated him badly. And Xiang Tian is not an ungrateful person, and there is nothing wrong with saying that the ancestor is like a parent.
"I see, then after the nephew and Yue Yan become Taoist couples in the future, you can also treat this place as your own home. When Wang Tao said this, he couldn't help but touch his chin, as if he had paid attention.
"Great Elder, Yue Yan is still young, and there are some things she hasn't thought about yet. As his uncle, I should also consider this matter carefully. At this time, the Third Elder Wang Song, who was sitting next to him, suddenly interrupted the Great Elder's words, and said with his eyes narrowed slightly.
"Yes, what the three elders said is reasonable, Yue Yan has been in the Imperial Soul Sect for too short a time, and it is normal to be confused by some of the appearances inside, as for this marriage, it is better to think about it in the long run. Wang Xu on the side also said quietly, and between the lines there was actually some favoritism towards that Elder Wang Song.
"Young Patriarch Wang Xu's words are wrong, the Imperial Soul Sect is the place where the ancestors of my Wang family were born, and the background of the sect is even higher than that of my Wang family, I don't know how many times, I think anyone here knows it. If no one in this Imperial Soul Sect is allowed to associate with me, then who can be qualified to associate with my family?"
Xiang Tian saw the performance of these people, and couldn't help but be a little surprised in his heart: "The people of this Wang family can be divided into two factions, one is headed by the Great Elder and approves of my marriage with Yue Yan, and the other is led by Yue Yan's father and the Third Elder, who want to reject my marriage with Yue Yan. ”
Xiang Tian pondered for a while, and immediately asked, "I don't know what Uncle Wang Xu means, is it because he wants Yue Yan to marry someone else after the time?"
"Xiang Xian's nephew doesn't know, before you came, I had already married Yue Yan to the Zhao family, so I had some ideas. When Wang Xu saw Xiang Tian asking, he said the words he had prepared. Listening to his tone, it was quite regrettable.
"Zhao family, which Zhao family?" Xiang Tian picked up the teacup, lowered his head and blew the tea in the cup, and glanced at Wang Xu and the others: "Although my knowledge is a little shallow, there are a few forces that can be as famous as the Eastern Continent Imperial Soul Sect. Hehe, I've never heard of this. ”
When Wang Xu heard this, his complexion couldn't help but change, and he immediately looked at Xiang Tiandao with a little unnaturalness: "Well, Senior Xiang's nephew said with a smile, the Zhao family, like my Wang family, belongs to a subsidiary family under the Imperial Soul Sect, so naturally it can't be compared with the Imperial Soul Sect." ”
"As for the Zhao family, to be honest, my Wang family has been friends with the Zhao family for hundreds of years, and there are three foundation monks in their family alone. And a while ago, their sister-in-law, Zhao Hao, also begged for this family matter, if it can't be done, our Wang family may have some trouble. ”
"The Zhao family is friendly with you, then they should support me and Yue Yan even more! Could it be that they have some other thoughts about your Wang family?" Xiang Tian pretended to be very surprised and said, and everyone around him was stunned. You messed up other people's family affairs, and said that they had other thoughts about my Wang family, what kind of bullshit logic is this!
The three elders on the side were also laughed at by Xiang Tian's anger, and immediately said: "Hahaha, I, who is an uncle, didn't think about so many questions, why don't I talk about it here, see what the Zhao family thinks about my Wang family?"
Xiang Tian picked up the teacup, took a sip of the tea in the cup, and said to himself: "Elder think about it, if the two families of King Zhao have been friends for generations, then they will not turn against each other because of a family matter. On the contrary, if the Zhao family took the initiative to withdraw and let me marry my senior sister as a Taoist couple, at that time, under the hands of the Netherworld Ancestor, half of the personal disciples would be related to the Wang family. ”
"At that time, if my senior sister and I casually say a few good words in front of the ancestor. As long as the ancestor is happy and casually rewards the Wang family with something, what will happen to the Wang family? The Zhao family is friendly with the Wang family, and they have also helped us promote this marriage, the ancestor is clear in his heart, how can he not take more care of their family when the time comes?"
"This ......" Wang Song was about to say something, and his palm froze there in mid-air, as if he was frozen.
"Hahahaha......" At this moment, Wang Xu, who was sitting on the side, burst into laughter, and his sudden move couldn't help but make everyone dumbfounded.
Among them, the third elder Wang Song was particularly puzzled: "Big brother, if you don't help me refute Xiang Tian, it's just that, why can you still laugh at this time! You know, Xiang Tian is so sharp-toothed, I can't get him myself!"
"Xiang Xian's nephew is really good, no wonder my family Yueyan is so optimistic about you. Wang Xu looked at Xiang Tian, smiled reservedly, and then said: "To be honest, Yue Yan and the Zhao family's family business, I, as a father, don't want to agree, it's only because of the relationship between the two families that I have no choice." Since the virtuous nephew has spoken, then I will go back and discuss it with the head of the family again. ”
When Xiang Tian heard this, he couldn't help but secretly urge the pupil of the Holy Cultivation to carefully feel the breath on Wang Xu's body, and secretly hummed in his heart: "Let's discuss? Hmph! If you really want to discuss, how can the evil thoughts towards me on your body suddenly increase so much!"
Of course, Xiang Tian couldn't just say what he thought in his heart, and immediately chuckled and said, "Since that's the case, then thank you uncle." ”
