Chapter 601: Pushing the Boat Downstream
1,000 wounded and 800 self-inflicted.
Such a result is absolutely unacceptable to both them and the Xiao family.
Therefore, most of the sect families actually have great confidence, and their personal appearance will inevitably make the Xiao family have some concerns.
Naturally, they came to the Xiao family to take a certain risk, but at least their lives were guaranteed.
"No, that's too risky, let's wait for them all to arrive. "Almost without hesitation, Baili Lone has already refused.
In his heart, why doesn't he understand the other party's thoughts?
It's just that he thinks deeper and more thoroughly.
At this time, it is not clear about the situation of Yan Lao and the others, in case the Xiao family is really desperate and wants to deal with them wholeheartedly, and secretly solve Yan Lao and them in advance.
Then at this time, you will definitely not care about their attitude.
Perhaps, before they were well prepared, they rashly entered the Xiao family, and in the end they just threw themselves into the net.
If that's the case, the consequences are really unimaginable.
"I also agree with the head of Baili. Lone Star's eyes were deep, and he also didn't think about it, so he said directly: "This time, in fact, we are taking a huge risk, if we don't have people, once the final situation is out of our expectations, the consequences are definitely not something we can bear." ”
"So, at this time, we have to be careful and make sure that we have the utmost certainty before we can carry out the final action. ”
"Yes, I also support it, and we can't make it more risky. ”
"I agree. ”
“…………”
Whether it is Baili Lonely or Lone Star, they are the real giants of the ancient realm, and since the opinions of the two of them have reached an agreement, then the others naturally dare not easily disobey them.
After all, in the years of union, the decision made unanimously by the two has never gone too wrong.
They also believe that there should not be too many surprises this time.
Soon, the opinions of the crowd were already unanimous.
It didn't take long for the rest of the people to arrive and join them.
"Everyone, this time against the Xiao family, the final result is unpredictable, but this confrontation will inevitably be related to the overall situation of the future of the ancient realm. Lone Star looked at the many masters, and finally had some confidence on his face.
With so many sect families, even if the Xiao family really has any plans, I am afraid they have to act cautiously, once a war between the two sides is triggered, the final result The Xiao family may not be able to afford it.
"Therefore, I hope that you can put aside your old grievances and work together to put pressure on the Xiao family. ”
"Lonely City Lord, don't worry, we all know in our hearts, this time, we will not give up until we achieve our goal. ”
"Yes, we don't have to lose time, let's do it as soon as possible. ”
“…………”
Although their whereabouts are very secret and have not been exposed, this is the territory of the Xiao family, and anything can happen.
If the Xiao family is prepared in advance, then I am afraid it will be an unfavorable situation for them.
Seeing that everyone had no intention of flinching, Lone Star and Baili Lone Xing glanced at each other, nodded at the same time, and then took the lead towards the Xiao family manor.
A moment later, they had already arrived at the door of the Xiao family's manor.
"Trouble to inform, the Sea Never Sleeps City has joined forces with other sect families to visit the Xiao family master. When he came to the door, Lone Star stepped forward directly and said to the children of the Xiao family who were guarding the door.
Between the words, there is a hint of arrogance.
As the city lord of the city that never sleeps on the sea, he naturally would not take these ordinary Xiao family children in his eyes.
Of course, he is not so arrogant that he doesn't take the Xiao family in his eyes, so he won't break into the Xiao family directly, once he really does this, it will be tantamount to slapping the Xiao family in the face, and when the time comes, there is no need to talk about it at all, and the two sides will completely tear their faces.
Such a result is naturally not what they want to see.
"Okay, Lonely City Lord, please wait a moment. The two Xiao family disciples did not have any dissatisfaction, but said with a solemn face.
After finishing speaking, he turned around directly and trotted towards the manor.
The city that never sleeps on the sea has united so many sect families, which is naturally not good news for the Xiao family, you must know that all along, these sect families have been secretly targeting the Xiao family.
It didn't take long for Xiao Ding to walk out with a smile on his face.
"Lonely City Lord, Baili Master, it is the honor of the Xiao family to come, all the family masters. Xiao Ding's tone was full of politeness.
As for what he really thinks, only he knows it.
"Master Xiao, please forgive me for coming to disturb you. In the face of Xiao Ding, they didn't dare to have any arrogance, not only because Xiao Ding stood behind the entire Xiao family, but also because of Xiao Ding's own strength, he could be regarded as a real master in the entire ancient world.
Of course, the premise is that the old-timers of the various sects will not make a move, but even so, Xiao Ding is definitely a lot stronger than them.
"It's all a trivial matter, all the heads of the family, please. Xiao Ding's face was indifferent, and he made a gesture of please.
Although the relationship between the two sides has always been hostile, it is still necessary to show what should be faced.
Of course, the premise is that there is no complete tearing between the two sides on the bright side.
Soon, under the leadership of Xiao Ding, the group came to the living room in the front yard of the manor.
"Everyone, I don't know what happened to the Xiao family?" After sitting down according to the host and guest positions, Xiao Ding did not beat around the bush, and asked directly to the point.
Now, the Xiao family is preparing to withdraw from the ancient realm, and Xiao Ding is naturally unwilling to talk nonsense with these people, so as not to delay the real major affairs of the Xiao family.
Although it is said that the news of the Xiao family's withdrawal from the ancient realm will leak out sooner or later, the real reason must not be exposed.
Naturally, the sooner these people can be sent away, the more beneficial it will be for the Xiao family.
"The head of the Xiao family is really direct enough, then I won't beat around the bush. Lone Star's face changed at first, obviously he didn't expect Xiao Ding's attitude to be like this, but he quickly reacted and said directly: "Elder Yan and the others came to visit the Xiao family before, but in the past few days, there has been no news, so the purpose of our visit is to ask the head of the Xiao family if they know the whereabouts of Elder Yan and them?"
"Yan Lao's whereabouts, I naturally know. Xiao Ding was slightly stunned, but then his eyes lit up, he had a plan in his heart, and he didn't have anything to hide, and said directly: "They came to the Xiao family because they lost the bet with me, and in the end they were willing to stay at the Xiao family for two years. ’
"What?"
Xiao Ding's words suddenly made Lone Star's face change greatly, they had thought about many results before, but they never thought that this would be the case.
If you lose the bet, you will have to stay at the Xiao family as a guest, and it will be two years.
Two years later, it was the Great Comparison of the Ancient Realm.
Based on this alone, you can see the true intentions of the Xiao family.
Now that they have seen the Xiao family's calculations, how can they let the Xiao family get their way?
It's just that it is impossible for them to directly tear their faces with the Xiao family, or force the Xiao family to give up the gambling contract and let Yan Lao and the others leave.
The only way is to negotiate terms with the Xiao family.
Thinking of this, Lone Star didn't hesitate, and after a moment of low emotion, he said: "Master Xiao, you should know what Yan Lao and they mean to us, if we really stay in the Xiao family for two years, we don't know what will happen, when the time comes, even if we leaders can understand, but the people below may not be able to understand." ”
There was a hint of threat in the words.
Xiao Ding's face suddenly changed greatly, as the head of the Xiao family, how could he not see this?
"Lonely City Lord, are you threatening me?"
"Don't dare, the head of the Xiao family misunderstood. Lone Star reacted instantly, what happened just now was indeed his own problem, once Xiao Ding was completely angered, I am afraid the consequences would be unpredictable at all.
After understanding, Lone Star naturally began to explain eagerly: "We just hope that the head of the Xiao family understands that even if it is a great price, we must complete this transaction with the Xiao family. ”
That's right, it's a deal.
That's what Lone Star really thinks.
"Deal?"
Xiao Ding's eyes lit up, and the corners of his mouth slightly outlined a curvature: "I completely understand what the lonely city lord means, to be honest, I also know the importance of Yan Lao and them, so I am not willing to destroy the stability of the entire ancient world for this matter, but if there are not enough conditions, I can't give a satisfactory explanation to the other children of the Xiao family." ”
"So, as long as you can give enough conditions, then it is not impossible for me to promise you. ”
Hearing this, Lone Star and the other heads of the family were all happy, as long as Yan Lao and they didn't have any accidents, and they didn't have to completely tear their faces with the Xiao family, then even if they paid a certain price, it was worth it.
"Master Xiao, if you have any conditions, as long as it is within our ability, we will definitely not refuse. Lone Star glanced around at the others, and then, without hesitation, patted his chest and reassured.
"I don't have many requirements, only one point, that is, in the Great Competition of the Ancient Realm in two years, no matter what the result of the Xiao family is, the cultivation resources obtained in the end will not be reduced. Xiao Ding's eyes flickered slightly, and he directly opened his own conditions.
Of course, this is not Xiao Ding's real purpose.
His plan was to take advantage of this opportunity to send all the Yan Lao and his group out of the Xiao family, so that they would not continue to stay in the Xiao family and destroy the Xiao family's chance to go to the world.
Xiao Ding is not a fool, he knows that Yan Lao's purpose for staying in the Xiao family is actually to find out about the situation of the Xiao family.
In the past, for the sake of Xiao Yunfei and Liu Yunqing, they could not care about this, but now that Xiao Yunfei and Liu Yunqing are no longer in any danger, and they are about to leave the ancient world, there is naturally no need to leave Yan Lao and them behind.
