Chapter 60: Rivals in Love

The elder of the Xiao family flashed gloom in his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Xiao Qiang, after all, you are from the Xiao family, let's talk about it, the old man promises, no one will dare to touch half a finger of you, how about the teahouse in front?"

Xiao Qiang looked at the teahouse in front of him, hesitated for a moment, turned to Ding Lanyi and said, "Lanyi, you wait for me." [Full text reading]"

"I'm waiting for you here. Ding Lanyi nodded, and watched Xiao Qiang and the elder walk into the teahouse in a daze.

In the box on the second floor of the teahouse, the four elders of the Xiao family had arrived, and everyone looked at Xiao Qiang, who was becoming more and more mature, with mixed feelings in their hearts.

Xiao Qiang killed two second-class masters of the Yunling Realm in succession in the boxing ring, shaking the whole city, and under the propaganda of several disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion, Xiao Qiang's actions in the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion were finally known to outsiders, causing an even greater shock.

Two moves swept the Green Bull Gang, the three swords town fists and feet were mighty, one recruited the strongest sixth Cui Dameng, the Warcraft Forest lived and died for ten days, and the Gentleman Valley fought for two days, sitting on the life and death platform, killing dozens of seventh-level masters, leading the Gentlemen League to surround Fengling Peak, forcibly demolishing the elite courtyard, on the life and death platform, comprehending the domineering sword intent, severely injuring six elite disciples, killing three people, and forcing Xiao Jing'an to admit defeat in public......

These stories, as if they were only in a legendary book, quickly spread throughout the city, making everyone who heard the story feel their scalp tingling, their blood boiling, and at the same time an incomparable sense of pride.

Xiao Qiang, the waste of the past, the silly boy of Three Rivers City, is already an existence that they need to look up to, he is simply a god-like young hero, he is only fifteen years old, and his future achievements are even more limitless!

When a person ascends to heaven, the height of a family is often determined by the best person in the family, and everyone can almost predict that the Xiao family is about to usher in a glorious period.

For a time, there was an endless stream of people who went to visit the Xiao family's manor, and the rich merchants, nobles, officials, some big figures of the principality, and the heads and elders of small sects in the provincial capital made the Xiao family flattered and honestly frightened, and the sadness caused by Xiao Guangyin's death had already been diluted away.

These people did not come empty-handed, most of them prepared rich gifts, especially the steward of the Governor's Palace, and the gifts sent by them turned out to be the title deeds of thousands of hectares of fertile land!

Over the years, the fertile land handed down by the ancestors of the Xiao family has been divided little by little by Haoqiang and the officials of the Governor's Palace, and these land deeds are the Xiao family's real estate that has been carved up over the years.

When the four elders held the title deed in their hands, they were so excited that they couldn't help themselves, and in the hearts of the old people, the land was their root.

The people of the Xiao family know very well that they can make the powerful people flock to it, and they can make the Governor's Mansion spit out the meat that they ate in their mouths again, not because of the Xiao family, but because of Xiao Qiang!

The four elders thought of the stupid decision at the beginning, and their bowels were remorseful, they discussed all night, and unanimously decided that Xiao Qiang could not be allowed to leave the Xiao family no matter what, even if he begged, he had to ask him back!

In the private seat of the teahouse, the four elders looked at Xiao Qiang's eyes, their eyes became more and more hot, and they bowed to Xiao Qiang at the same time.

Xiao Qiang couldn't afford such a big gift, so he hurriedly dodged away, and said with a wry smile: "Four elders, why do you bother!"

The elder who had invited Xiao Qiang earlier, with gray hair, said in an astringent voice: "Xiao Qiang, are you just watching the Xiao family's hundreds of years of foundation collapse like this?!"

Xiao Qiang hurriedly asked the old man to stop, and said: "Elder, the words have to be made clear, it was you who drove the uncle down from the position of the head of the family, it was you who expelled our line from the Xiao family, put the third uncle under house arrest, and took Xuegu and Xuerou as hostages. Besides, a three-light and I have a trick, they are all dignified, Xiao Guangyin can't blame me if he dies. If the Xiao family crosses, it has nothing to do with me!"

The four elders lowered their heads in shame, their hearts were full of bitterness, if they had known that Xiao Qiang had such great potential, why did they bother in the first place!

They were optimistic about the Hedong lineage, one door and three lights, Xiao Guangzu was cut off by Xiao Qiang, Xiao Guangding was provoked by Xiao Qiang to break his tendons, Xiao Guangyin was even more slashed in half by Xiao Qiang's domineering sword, where is there any future?

The four elders knew that they had made an unforgivable mistake, but for the sake of the Xiao family's future, they had to come to see Xiao Qiang, and they had to keep Xiao Qiang in the Xiao family.

A little tear flashed in the corner of an elder's eyes, and he slowly knelt on the ground on his knees, looked at Xiao Qiang with teary eyes, and choked up: "Xiao Qiang, the old man has knelt down for you, for the future of the Xiao family, come back!"

Xiao Qiang hurriedly stepped forward to help the old man, but the old man was so dead that he just couldn't get up.

"Xiao Qiang, there are thousands of mistakes, they are all the old man's fault, but we really don't know about the things that your second uncle did as the head of the family!"

Xiao Qiang didn't care about these explanations, but he really couldn't bear to see the old man kneeling in front of him, crying, and he felt uncomfortable.

Under the prayers of the four old men, Xiao Qiang said helplessly: "Elders, don't you know that the people of the Jade Dragon Principality have already taken control of this city, and war will break out at any time!"

"What?!" The four elders' heads rang and they looked at Xiao Qiang in disbelief.

Xiao Qiang felt a deep sense of powerlessness, and said: "Elders, in the face of the general trend, I can't change anything, I can't do anything, I can only tell you the news, let you make plans early, this is the last thing I do for the Xiao family!"

After speaking, Xiao Qiang bowed to the four elders, turned around and strode away.

Leaving the teahouse, Xiao Qiang let out a sigh of relief, and when he saw Ding Lanyi standing in front of the carriage, waiting quietly for him, a warm current surged in his heart.

I'm just a small person, since I can't change anything, why am I still sad, don't I live up to this beautiful scenery and a beautiful woman?

If the war comes tomorrow, everything here will cease to exist, and what will remain in his memories should not be just some bitterness and sorrow, at least he can't leave these in Lan Yi's memory.

Xiao Qiang had a clean smile on his face and walked up to Ding Lanyi: "Give me your hand." ”

"What are you doing?" Ding Lanyi was inexplicably nervous, her face was slightly embarrassed, but she still poked out her cold little hand and let Xiao Qiang's big hand grasp it.

Xiao Qiang took Ding Lanyi's hand and said with a smile: "Lanyi, I heard that the most beautiful thing in Sanhe City is the scenery on both sides of the riverbank, especially at night, let's go shopping, we may never see it again in the future." ”

"Okay. Ding Lanyi felt the temperature from Xiao Qiang's hand, and couldn't help but clench it a little, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

At night, Sanhe City is lit up with thousands of lights, the lights on the river are bright, Ambilight, and a cold wind blows, which makes people feel refreshed.

Several gorgeously decorated painting boats slowly sail along the river, bringing the pleasant sound of silk and bamboo.

Ding Lanyi stood on a stone bridge, admiring the beautiful scenery of the night, and muttered, "It's so beautiful here." ”

Xiao Qiang was dozing off leaning on a stone lion, his saliva was about to flow down, and he hurriedly hummed twice, he was indeed a little unable to hold on, he was tired, and he couldn't wait to find a place to sleep now.

On the river in front, a tall building boat was coming slowly, and four or five young men in Chinese clothes were standing at the bow of the boat, enjoying the night view on both sides of the river.

"Lan Yi!" The purple-clothed young man rose into the air and walked in front of Ding Lanyi, his delicate face filled with a sunny smile.

"Shang Qingyun, why are you here?" Ding Lanyi looked at Shang Qingyun in surprise.

"Originally, I was going to Canglong City with a few friends, but I estimated that it was still early, so when I passed by Blue Eagle, I took a casual stroll," Shang Qingyun folded his hands and sighed, "God bless me for not leaving in a hurry, otherwise I will miss you!"

Ding Lanyi smiled faintly: "I plan to leave tomorrow." ”

Xiao Qiang came to his senses, and looked coldly at the purple-clothed young man who was standing in the air with his hands folded, and said in his heart to see how long you can hold this breath, it's best to fall down directly!

Of course, his real feeling was very shocked, this purple-clothed young man named Shang Qingyun looked about the same age as himself, but judging from his movements standing in the air and swaying freely, his cultivation was obviously higher than himself, and he was more than a little bit taller!

Looking at the other party's gorgeous clothes, plump and handsome, his speech and demeanor all showed the cultivation of the children of the family, as well as the natural sense of superiority, even Xiao Qiang was inevitably a little jealous when he saw it.

Lu Zhonghe is handsome enough, and his aura is enough, but compared to the young man in front of him, he is simply a dung ball.

It must be Gao Fushuai, the first Gao Fushuai I met in the Tianyin Continent, Xiao Qiang inexplicably has a sense of crisis.

Hunting in long clothes, Shang Qingyun's bright eyes looked at Ding Lanyi: "Lanyi, it's better to meet by chance, it's better to go on a cruise together, and take a look at the night scene on both sides of the strait." ”

"Okay. Ding Lanyi glanced at Xiao Qiang, nodded, and the monk Qingyun floated down together and landed on the bow of the Lou boat.

Xiao Qiang looked at the young men on the bow of the boat greeting enthusiastically, and suddenly felt very embarrassed, just when he hesitated to go over, he saw Ding Lanyi beckoning: "Xiao Qiang, you are also here!"

Xiao Qiang had no choice but to fly down and gesture to several teenagers.

Shang Qingyun glanced at Xiao Qiang lightly and ignored it, but several other teenagers saw Xiao Qiang standing beside Ding Lanyi, and he was standing side by side, revealing a strong hostility
