Zhuang Bi's gaze stayed on Chu Qianhan's body for a moment, and then shifted away.

Steward Sun also secretly waved his hand to Chu Qianhan at this time, signaling her to retreat immediately.

Before leaving, Chu Qianhan cast a grateful look at Xue Renfeng, and then left.

And the matter here gradually calmed down because of the appearance of Steward Sun, and the heads of the families also returned to their respective rooms one after another to continue waiting.

Xue Renfeng, who returned to the room, suddenly recalled Chu Qianhan's eyes before leaving, and seemed to have some other meaning besides thanks.

Just as he was about to think deeply, there was a sudden knock on the door.

The time to deliver the meal had passed, and Xue Renfeng was a little curious, who came to him, so he got up and went over to open the door, but after opening the door, he found that the person outside the door was Chu Qianhan.

Xue Renfeng knew the relationship between Chu Qianhan and Li Xiuyan, and he also knew Li Xiuyan's identity, and he was afraid of being discovered, after all, this was the Xiao family, and his Xue family was still a subordinate family of the Xiao family, if the Xiao family or others knew that he had a connection with the enemy of the Nine Great Families, the Lord of the Nine Realms, his family would be in danger.

"Come on in. Xue Renfeng saw that the doors of the other heads of the family were closed, so he hurriedly pulled Chu Qianhan in, and then closed the door.

"Did you come to me for something?" Xue Renfeng looked a little nervous.

Chu Qianhan also knew what he was nervous about, so he didn't beat around the bush and told him directly that Li Xiuyan wanted to see him.

Xue Renfeng was slightly stunned, and then asked Chu Qianhan the time and place.

Chu Qianhan did not tell him the inn where Li Xiuyan was staying now, but told him the room of another inn on the next street according to Li Xiuyan's instructions.

After all, Li Xiuyan doesn't trust him too much, and he can't guarantee that he will go back on his word, so it's better to be cautious.

"Okay, I'll be on time. Knowing the time and place, Xue Renfeng said that he would definitely go to the appointment on time.

The goal has been achieved, Chu Qianhan did not stay long, thanked Xue Renfeng again for the previous matter, and left Xue Renfeng's room.

The next morning, after having breakfast, Xue Renfeng left Xue's house, walked around and around, and after repeatedly making sure that he was not followed, he entered the inn where he agreed, and under the guidance of the young man, he came to the agreed room.

After Xue Renfeng walked into the room, he didn't see Li Xiuyan, and waited for almost a stick of incense before Li Xiuyan appeared, still carrying a pot of hot tea in his hand.

"Master Xue, don't come unharmed. Li Xiuyan poured Xue Renfeng a cup of tea.

Xue Renfeng arched his hand at the fierce cultivation.

Li Xiuyan is kind to him, to the Xue family, and to Xue Baobao, don't look at his age, he can be Li Xiuyan's uncle, but he is still very polite to Li Xiuyan, and he doesn't even have the slightest shelf of elders, it's completely like getting along with peers.

"Brother Li came to me this time, is there something wrong?" Xue Renfeng asked.

Li Xiuyan saw that Xue Renfeng was a little nervous, so he comforted: "Master Xue doesn't have to be nervous, I came to you this time just to learn something about the situation." ”

"But it doesn't hurt to say that. ”

"I want to know, why did you appear at the Xiao family?" Li Xiuyan didn't beat around the bush and asked directly.

"That's right. Xue Renfeng didn't hide it, and directly told Li Xiuyan about the reason for coming to the Xiao family.

After listening to this, Li Xiuyan had a general understanding of Xiao Yu's current situation, and then asked Xue Renfeng, "Then have you seen the head of the Xiao family?"

Xue Renfeng shook his head and said, "Not yet, we have been here for many days, but we have never been able to see the head of the Xiao family." He seemed to be deliberately avoiding us. ”

"Hiding from you? why?"

"I don't know. But according to my information, the head of the Xiao family didn't seem to be in the Xiao family before, and only came back a few days ago. ”

"That's ......"

Li Xiuyan stood up and took a few steps around the room.

As the head of the family, they basically have to deal with a lot of problems every day, comparable to the emperors of the lower heavenly realm, so there is nothing special, and they generally do not leave the family.

Xue Renfeng said that the head of the Xiao family was not in the Xiao family before, and he only came back a few days ago, indicating that he must have done something important during this period.

As for what to do, Li Xiuyan doesn't know.

"By the way, Master Xiao, what I told you before......"

Li Xiuyan had mentioned to the head of the Xiao family before that he would help find like-minded people, because if he wanted to deal with the Xiao family, the first thing to do was to disintegrate the subordinate families other than the Xiao family.

However, it is much easier to win them over than to dismantle them, so when Li Xiuyan separated before, he asked Xue Renfeng to help keep an eye on them to see if there were any like-minded people.

Xue Renfeng: "I really paid attention to what you asked me to pay attention to, but I don't think it's time yet." ”

Li Xiuyan smiled and nodded, "Indeed, the contradiction between them and the Xiao family has not escalated to the point of betraying the Xiao family. ”

"That's right. Xue Renfeng continued: "If I go to them now and mention this matter to them, not only will it not succeed, but it will backfire. ”

Li Xiuyan also felt that now was not the time, so the purpose of asking Xue Renfeng was actually to tell Xue Renfeng not to win them over for the time being.

As for when the time is ripe, it should also be determined according to the specific circumstances at that time.

"In this way, Master Xue, you go back first, I will be in Tianhuo City during this time, if there is any news, you can ask Qian Han to tell me, or send it to this room by letter. I will always keep this room. ”

"Okay, then I'll go back first, so as not to be discovered by the people of the Xiao family. ”

In order to avoid being discovered, Li Xiuyan and Xue Renfeng went separately.

Li Xiuyan returned to the inn where he stayed, while Xue Renfeng went back to Xiao's house directly.

Incidents similar to the soul beast attacking the city are still being staged in the Nine Domains of the Heavenly Realm.

After discussion, the nine heads of the nine major families decided to send an envoy to the soul beast forest to try to meet with the king of soul beasts to see what they wanted.

However, the King of Soul Beasts, for the entire Three Days Realm Continent, is a legendary-level existence, and he only knows that there is such a number one person, but no one has seen it.

Because it is rumored that the King of Soul Beasts has always been in the core of the Soul Beast Forest, surrounded by some super-high-grade soul beasts, no one can get close to it at all.

Therefore, the Nine Great Families sent envoys this time to try to meet with the King of Soul Beasts, in fact, they themselves did not have much confidence, but no matter what, they still had to give it a try, after all, the current Nine Great Families were not as prosperous and prosperous as they were back then.
