Chapter 212: Elder, Change Jade
Although he was a little puzzled, Ye Chen still walked into the Xiao Clan's mansion, but soon, he was slightly frowning at the scene inside and outside the main hall.
Corpses, there were corpses everywhere, and looking at the clothes of these people on the ground, Ye Chen also felt a little familiar.
"I'm back, haha, please take a seat."
Xiao Clan Elder Xiao Wanshan kindly pulled Ye Chen to the high chair in the hall, his old face was full of excitement, and the nails of his probing hands were also stained with red blood that had not yet been washed.
"Elder Wanshan is polite, this position can only be sat by family elders, how can Ye Chen be..."
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Wanshan interrupted with a smile: "Brother Ye doesn't know yet, now your credit is too great, a few of us have agreed with the patriarch to make you the ninth elder of the family, so from now on, you will be the Elder Ye of the Xiao clan." ”
"Yes, Ye Chen, although he is only an elder with a foreign surname, he has the same rights as us, and he has the absolute right to discuss and make decisions."
Another white-bearded elder stood up and patted Ye Chen's shoulder to let him sit down in peace, while the others in the hall also looked at him and nodded with a smile on their faces.
Xiao Xun'er and Xiao Mei were taken to the inner courtyard with their eyes covered, and at the same time, Xiao Zhan's figure appeared on the high seat of the hall, facing the corpses all over the ground, without showing the slightest expression of surprise.
"What's going on?"
All the corpses on the ground, Ye Chen has already recognized, aren't they all from the Galie family? And most of them survived from his sword, but alas, they still died after all.
"Haha, why should Brother Ye Chen wonder, isn't it your credit that our Xiao clan can have today's great results."
Elder Wanshan said, and then explained the cause and effect of why the ground was full of corpses.
It turned out that after Ye Chen made a big fuss about the Galie family, they got the news that there was a mysterious person beside him who helped him, and after thinking that it was an alchemist, the Xiao clan sent someone to reinforce him.
However, when they arrived at Gare's house, they also found out about the defeat of Gare's house, so they had this act of picking up corpses to get rid of future troubles.
In the face of the good opportunity for all the strong people to die, the Xiao clan also defeated all the remaining members of the Galel family in one go, expelled them from Utan City, and the slightly stronger ones were brought back to the house to kill, declaring the sovereignty of the Xiao clan in Utan City in the future.
One of the three major families was wiped out, and after the Xiao family swore sovereignty, they were able to control all the shop territory of the Galie family.
And the biggest credit for all this is that he went to save Ye Chen, so there was the matter of Ye Chen being named an elder outside the family.
"Ye Chen, you don't have to be formal, although your cultivation is average, but the credit to the family is indeed unique, this position of elder is an affirmation of your great contribution to the family."
Xiao Zhan finally spoke, but what he said was similar to what the other elders meant.
But Ye Chen knew that the affirmation of this elder was just a few paragraphs that the Xiao clan wanted to tie him up, after all, the alchemist they imagined in their minds was not only powerful in refining medicine but also a strong man, such a person, how could the Xiao family let it go.
As soon as he thought of this, he heard Elder Wanshan say with a smile: "Ye Chen, that alchemist friend of yours, shouldn't we introduce us, after all, we will all be partners in the future, if he agrees, our Xiao clan can also enshrine it as a great family offering, as long as we refine the alchemy, we can enjoy all the power resources of the Xiao clan." ”
"Yes, Ye Chen, it's all my own family, since that alchemist is your friend, isn't it our Xiao family's friend? If he is willing to come, the Xiao clan will not let him down, and in the future, Utan City and even several surrounding city-states, we can ...
Another elder persuaded him, but after Ye Chen heard it, he shook his head: "I'm sorry, my friend said that he won't stay in this small place of Utan City for long, maybe he will leave soon." ”
"It's so urgent, is there any difficulty with the alchemist, it's better to say it, and we can help."
Hearing Xiao Wanshan's words, Ye Chen couldn't help but sigh, and then stopped saying anything.
Seeing this, Xiao Zhan on the first seat raised his hand to interrupt Elder Wanshan, who was still about to ask, and then said to Ye Chen with a smile: "You have also worked hard today, go down and rest first, and this matter will be discussed later." ”
"Thank you, patriarch, then I'll take my leave first."
After Ye Chen nodded and left the hall, Elder Wanshan suddenly said anxiously: "Patriarch, I haven't finished speaking, why did you let that kid go, the alchemist's stay has a lot to do with my Xiao clan." ”
"Don't worry, in my opinion, the alchemist has a great relationship with Ye Chen, and he can deal with the entire Jialie family for him, so as long as Ye Chen is still our Xiao clan elder, then he can't escape."
Hearing this, many elders immediately looked at each other, and then they laughed again and again, constantly fantasizing about the grand occasion of the Xiao clan growing and dominating Utan City in the future.
Ye Chen returned to his room, lay on the bed and looked at the vast starry sky outside the window and thought.
His status in the Xiao clan has risen too quickly, and in less than a month, he has already mixed with an elder with a foreign surname, and it seems that it will not be too far from the completion of the first sign-in task.
Early the next morning, after Ye Chen got up, he went to the Utan City Auction House, bought a few jars of high-grade old wine, and then ran to the courtyard of Xiao Wanshan's residence where he had talked a lot before.
As soon as he knocked on the courtyard door, Elder Wanshan's voice came from the side: "Hey, Elder Ye Chen, what are you looking for me in the early morning?" ”
"I heard that Elder Wanshan likes fine wine, Ye Mou happens to have a few jars of fine wine here, I don't know if I can invite the elders to drink together, by the way, please ask me if I can enter the Xiao Clan's Fighting Skills Nabao Pavilion and choose something that suits me."
Ye Chen took out the hundred-year-old wine and smiled slightly, and when Xiao Wanshan saw this, he immediately laughed: "Ye Chen, I remember that the old man had already said yesterday that although you are an elder with a foreign surname, you can also enjoy all the privileges of the elder, just a little bit of fighting skills in the treasure pavilion, I will accompany you to take a look after drinking later." ”
With that, Xiao Wanshan pulled Ye Chen into the Elder's Courtyard, and couldn't wait to drink the century-old wine.
This jar is worth half a thousand gold coins, after Xiao Wanshan and Ye Chen drank a jar, the other party accepted the other fine wine into his own ring: "Brother Ye, you don't drink much, you blush, we still have to do business, I will wait for you to accept this wine, wait for next time, let's have a good drink." ”
After that, Elder Wanshan pulled Ye Chen and came to the Xiao Clan's Fighting Skill Nabao Pavilion, and the guards at the door saw that the two of them had the elder's waist card on their waists, and they didn't stop each other, so they walked in directly.
"Come, Brother Ye, you can copy and practice the fighting skills here, and if you want to have treasures, you can also take a little bit."
Elder Wanshan pointed to the dazzling books and various gems and delicacies on the shelves, and briefly introduced the unspoken rule that the more things go inside, the better.
After Ye Chen nodded and thanked him, he couldn't help but pick up a few Xuan-level fighting skills and flip through them, but how could the down-and-out Xiao clan have any good things, one by one superimposed heavy books, only one local level junior fighting skill was okay, but it was also incomplete.
Without going any further, Ye Chen casually picked up a copy of his fighting skills and walked towards the area where the treasure divine weapons were placed.
After casually looking at it for a while, Ye Chen picked up a piece of broken jade with a simple precedence, which was full of strange patterns, but that's all, it looked very ordinary, and there was no other wonder.
"Can I take it?"
Holding the ancient jade, Ye Chen asked lightly, Xiao Wanshan saw this, and said with a smile: "It's not okay to take it, although it's just an ordinary broken jade that can sense the breath of life, it's not a big deal, but it's also an item that has existed in my Xiao clan for generations, so I'm sorry." ”
"Yes, it's a pity, but I like this jade pendant so much, it looks very chic, and I want to give it to someone I like."
Ye Chen shrugged his shoulders helplessly and smiled, and when he put down the broken jade, a porcelain jade bottle suddenly fell from his arms.
Immediately, the lid covering the jade bottle was bounced off, and a crystal clear pill suddenly rolled out from within.
Suddenly, a medicinal smell visible to the naked eye suddenly permeated the entire storage room, and after Xiao Wanshan saw this thing, his eyes widened.
"Oops, the five-grade peak pill that my friend gave me has fallen, but don't get dirty, I still have to give it away."
After saying that, he was about to bend down and pick it up, but a hand figure picked up the pill faster than him, and immediately a shocked sound came from the side.
"Five-pin, it's really a five-grade Dou Ling Zhujidan."
After saying that, Ye Chen saw Xiao Wanshan staring at the pill in his hand and swallowing wildly.
The effect of this pill can increase the success rate of the powerhouse of the Great Doushi realm by 60% when breaking through the Dou Ling, such a precious five-grade peak pill is simply rare in the world.
"Brother Wanshan, that's mine, can you give it back to me?"
Ye Chen chuckled, but the words were very complicated, Xiao Wanshan looked at the five-grade pill in his hand, and the tragic situation of the Jialie family also sounded.
But this Dou Ling Zhuji Dan, if it is given to the Xiao Zhan Patriarch who is about to reach the 9-star Great Dou Master, wouldn't their Xiao family have one more Dou Ling powerhouse.
It's okay if I don't want to, if I think about it, it really makes Xiao Wanshan unable to hide this crazy idea anymore, but if you want to rob it, the five-grade alchemist behind Ye Chen and their Xiao family can't afford to offend, the Galie family is an example, but if you exchange things for things.
An idea rose in his heart, and when Xiao Wanshan pretended to return the pill to Ye Chen, he said, Although this pill is good, you are also a fighter, maybe you can use it.
Since you like that piece of broken jade, why don't you swap it and give it to your sweetheart, Concubine Ya, and you will definitely get the heart of the beauty.
Saying that, the Five-Rank Douling Zhuji Dan was also about to be placed in Ye Chen's palm, but suddenly, Ye Chen withdrew his right hand and clapped his palm: "That's right, I'm only a fighter, maybe I won't need it in the future, it's not as good as a piece of beautiful jade." ”
"Yes, Brother Ye is smart."
Xiao Wanshan secretly smiled and withdrew the elixir, and immediately quickly picked up the broken jade, stuffed it into Ye Chen's arms, and continued: "What, I still have something to do, so I won't accompany my brother, you can leave by yourself after you choose your fighting skills, brother, I'll leave first." With that, the man had disappeared outside the attic and ran towards the patriarch's hall.
Soon, there was also a sound of excited laughter in the hall, and Ye Chen looked at the ancient jade in his hand, the corners of his mouth also showed a hint of a smile, and slowly returned to his room.
However, not long after he returned, he found a note on the table with the words "Come quickly".
Seeing this, Ye Chen also frowned, and then left the Xiao family's mansion without eating breakfast.
