Chapter 62: Family

The Luo family, one of the four protector clans of the Yanxia Kingdom, has absolute majesty in the kingdom. [Ran^Text^Library] []

At this moment, in the Luo family's secret room, Luo Guangyi, the head of the Luo family, was looking at the information in his hand, his eyebrows locked tightly, and his eyes were full of doubts.

According to the intelligence, the Xiao family dispatched a team of Jin Wei a day ago, led by three worship elders, and the direction of the Luo family's sphere of influence was the direction.

Jin Wei is the division of the big family to the guards, belonging to the highest level of guards, a team of Jin Wei has a hundred people, plus a captain and two deputy captains, Jin Wei as the highest level of guards, cultivation is at least above the Liwu realm, and the three captains are at the level of the Lingwu realm.

There are also three worship elders, and their strength is also above the Spirit Martial Realm, otherwise they are not qualified to become worship elders.

With such a team dispatched, it was difficult not to attract attention, and other families also got information, but no one knew the purpose of the Xiao family's trip.

Especially the Luo family, as the so-called bad things have done too much, they will always be suspicious, and Xiao Chen has learned the real cause of Xiao Zhan's death, which makes him even more restless.

Afraid, he naturally won't be afraid of the Xiao family, as long as he is ruthless in the current Xiao family, he can definitely eradicate it in one fell swoop, but what about after that? Hurt a thousand enemies and lose eight hundred, how could the other two families miss such a good opportunity in vain?

"My lord, the matter has been investigated. ”

The light and shadow in the secret room flickered, and a black-robed figure suddenly appeared in the secret room, as if it appeared out of thin air.

Luo Guangyi threw away the information in his hand and said in a deep voice: "Say." ”

The black-robed figure knelt down on one knee in front of Luo Guangyi since it appeared, and without looking up, he began to report: "The eldest lady and the second young master of the Xiao family, who have been missing for nearly three years, appeared in Qingshi Town, and the target of the Xiao family's Jin Wei is also Qingshi Town, so they should be there to pick them up." ”

"Xiao Ji and Xiao Li, they're not dead yet?!"

Luo Guangyi's eyes were cold, and a wave of anger poured out, his second son was abolished by Xiao Chen, and he was afraid that killing Xiao Chen would lead to the desperate revenge of the Xiao family, so he had to endure it and wait until he settled the account later.

But if Xiao Ji and Xiao Li didn't die, the Xiao family would have three descendants, and if one or two died, they wouldn't be able to fight the Xiao family.

"Very good! Very good! Shadow One, you immediately take three hundred shadow guards to ambush, and you will definitely capture Xiao Ji and Xiao Li alive! Remember not to reveal your identity!"

"Yes!" Shadow was like a shadow, the voice fell, and the figure had disappeared into the secret room.

The shadow guard, as the name suggests, is not a guard on the surface, not to mention outsiders, even a very small number of people in the Luo family know about it, and only obey the orders of the patriarch.

In the dimly lit secret room, the lights flickered, illuminating Luo Guangyi's hideous face, and the abolition of his beloved son made him fall into a rampage several times, wanting to destroy the Xiao family regardless of it, but in the end he endured it.

He knows very well that he is not only a father, but also the head of the family, and he has to shoulder the entire family, so he can only endure it, and he has to endure it if he can't bear it!

But now, he finally doesn't have to take it anymore!

"Little crumb, just wait to bear my wrath!"

..................

At the same time, the Red family, the Bai family, the royal family, and various large and small forces all received information at the first time, and they all had their own arrangements.

Today's Xiao family is like a toothless tiger, with a huge cake behind it, everyone wants to take a bite, no matter whether they can bite it in the end or not, they will only know if they have bitten it.

The dark tide was surging outside, but Xiao Chen didn't know it, he entered the national capital, and wanted to go to the palace to see Nangong Ling'er, but in the end he didn't go, because he knew that it would be in vain to go, which only added to the sadness.

The national capital is located in the north of the Yanxia Kingdom, not far from the academy, and is the center of political power of a country on the bright side, covering an area of one million acres, and is the most prosperous city in the country.

In the national capital, there are strongholds of major forces, and the Xiao family is no exception, there is a chamber of commerce in the north of the city, but it does not belong to the Xiao family on the surface, and it is used to secretly collect intelligence.

Xiao Chen rented a carriage at the gate of the city and went straight to the Xiao Family Chamber of Commerce, the country was too big, and he couldn't reach the destination by walking for half a day.

An hour later, Xiao Chen came to the door of the Chamber of Commerce, guarding the door was a team of Xiao family guards, seeing Xiao Chen's arrival, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly went in to report, and the other guards bowed slightly, not daring to show it too obviously, for fear of being exposed.

This secret stake has been entrenched in the national capital for hundreds of years, and there are not many people in the clan who are qualified to know, and the people in charge of the chamber of commerce are all absolutely loyal people.

"What can I do for you, this guest?"

As soon as Xiao Chen walked into the door of the Chamber of Commerce, a waitress with a light gauze skirt and a sweet smile walked in front of him, and she bowed slightly to Xiao Chen.

There are still many guests in the Chamber of Commerce, all of whom looked at it in surprise, the waitress who received Xiao Chen was not an ordinary person, to be exact, the woman was not a waitress at all, but the eldest lady of this Chamber of Commerce, Gu Yun.

An ordinary-looking young man actually alarmed Gu Yun to receive him personally, which had to make them feel incomprehensible, after all, which eldest prince was not a brocade robe and a large number of guards? No matter how bad it was, he would be accompanied by a few masters, how could he be as diligent as Xiao Chen, and he would not be afraid of being assassinated?

This world is very cruel, the higher the status, the greater the power, the more people will be offended, often the children of famous families, once they travel, they are full of guards, and they are afraid of being assassinated.

No matter how bad it is, even if there is no enemy assassination, there will be many bandits outside the city, they are entrenched in the wilderness, far away from the major power regions, burning, killing and looting are all evil, even if they are the children of everyone, once there are enough interests, they will never be soft.

After all, they don't have a fixed stronghold, and if they do a big job, they will find a place to hide, and even if the big forces go out to encircle and suppress, they may not be able to find them.

This world is very big, and the Yanxia Kingdom is also very large, and there are many wilderness areas between cities, which do not belong to any forces, and it is a paradise for bandits.

The city where the Xiao family is located is named Xiaocheng, which is thousands of miles away from the national capital, and many of the intermittent distances do not belong to any forces, and it is indeed very troublesome for him to return to Xiaocheng safely.

So he came to the Xiao family's Dark Pile Chamber of Commerce.

"I'm going to go out and rent a carriage and a few guards. ”

Xiao Chen, like an ordinary guest, made a request, renting a carriage and renting people are the business of the Chamber of Commerce, of course, the guards rented by others are recruited by the Chamber of Commerce, and the Xiao family will naturally be their own people.

And yet—

Gu Yun was embarrassed, if it was usual, she would never hesitate, and she would not really arrange only a few guards, the safety of the young master was greater than the sky, she would definitely arrange more than a hundred guards to accompany her.

But the problem is that now that the people of the Xiao family have been sent out, there are not many left, even if they are all sent to escort Xiao Chen, she does not dare to guarantee safety, in case something happens, she can't afford it.

As for those recruited, she won't be at ease, once they really encounter danger, they will definitely run, who would be stupid and desperate to protect the young master?

"Is there any problem?" Xiao Chen noticed the strangeness of Gu Yun, his sword eyebrows furrowed, and he probably guessed in his heart that something should have happened.

He pretended to be angry and said, "Hmph, are you afraid that the master will have no money? That's how a big chamber of commerce of yours does business?" Go and call your president!"

Xiao Chen finished speaking angrily, ignoring the stunned gazes cast by everyone, and walked straight towards a VIP room.

"This kid is crazy, isn't he?

"If you want to see the president, he won't be afraid of being thrown out?"

Young and ignorant, arrogant, this kind of person is the most likely to die. ”

“......”

There was a burst of ridicule around him, but the ancient rhyme of the person concerned was his eyes lit up, and the young master of the secret path went to the academy for more than a year, and he really became much calmer, knowing that this was not the place to talk.

She immediately summoned a maid and said, "Go and get my father." ”

The waitress was obviously not from the Xiao family, and said with a warm and angry face: "Miss, he is too much!"

"Let you go!"

Gu Yun glared at the waitress fiercely, so frightened that the latter didn't dare to speak anymore, and hurriedly ran towards the second floor, but she was still angry in her heart, thinking that they were a huge chamber of commerce, even if the famous families in the national capital had to give some face, but this wild boy who came out of nowhere dared to be so provocative, and what was even more infuriating was that the eldest lady actually took it!

"Hmph, let's find the eldest master! It doesn't matter which young master you are, my family has a background all over the world, see how you end!"

The waitress went to the second floor in a huff, and Gu Yun followed Xiao Chen into the VIP room, each VIP room has soundproof taboos, which is the best place for secret conversations.

As soon as he entered the VIP room, Gu Yun immediately opened the taboo, and then knelt down on one knee and said: "Gu Yun participates in the young master." ”

"What's going on?"

Xiao Chen sat down on the main seat, he was a high-ranking Martial Saint in his previous life, and he was also the young master of everyone in this life, and the momentum of a superior person involuntarily poured out, making Gu Yun secretly frightened.

Any big family, the longer the inheritance, the greater the rules within the clan, and the stricter the hierarchy, just like Xiao Chen, is the grandson of the old patriarch of the Xiao family, the son of the head of the Xiao family, although the old patriarch has been missing for nearly three years, the head of the family has also fallen, and now Xiao Chen's second uncle is in charge of the position of the head of the family, but Xiao Chen's identity is there, if he is an adult, the position of the head of the family is also inherited by him.

As for whether he can serve the public after inheritance, whether he needs to give way, these are all things that will follow, anyway, according to the family rules, Xiao Chen's second uncle can only take the position of the head of the family, and when Xiao Chen becomes an adult, he must be transferred to him.

And Gu Yun can't even inherit the surname Xiao, obviously a distant member of the Xiao family, when she sees the young master of the Xiao family, she must kneel down, and even say it ugly, even if Xiao Chen asks for her, she doesn't dare to resist.

"Back to the young master, someone called most of the clansmen in the chamber of commerce yesterday, and now they can't send more people to escort the young master!"

Xiao Chen's sword eyebrows furrowed, the Chamber of Commerce is a dark pile, and the clan will never call these people without special circumstances, he said in a deep voice: "Who called it?"

Gu Yun shook his head and said, "I don't know, my father personally received it, I have already asked my father to come over, please wait for a while." ”

Xiao Chen is not an arrogant person, so naturally he will not be embarrassed by Gu Yun, he nodded, closed his eyes and waited.

Soon, Gu Yun's father, Gu Changhe, entered the VIP room accompanied by the waitress, who wanted to see the appearance of the president, but unfortunately was driven out directly, which made her very depressed.

"Participate in the Young Lord. ”

Gu Changhe also knelt on one knee, and after bowing, he got up and said, "The young master is in a hurry to go back to Xiaocheng?" I don't know if I can stay for a while, I can inform the three worship elders and let them take a detour here to pick up the young master back to the city, so it is much safer." ”

"Huh?"

Xiao Chen's face changed, the worship elder is the top force in the clan, and he will not be dispatched at will if there is nothing very important, but this time he sent three at once, it seems that the matter is even more serious than he imagined!

"What the hell is going on? ”

This time it was Gu Changhe's turn to change, he looked at Xiao Chen suspiciously, and after making sure that the latter really didn't seem to know, he said respectfully: "The eldest lady and the second young master appeared in Qingshi Town, and the clan sent three worshippers and a team of Jin Wei to meet them, but the road is far away, and the clan is afraid of late changes, so the chamber of commerce is ordered to respond first." ”

"Eldest sister and second brother?!"

Xiao Chen stood up violently, his face showed joy, everyone in the world thought that the eldest lady of the Xiao family and the second young master had fallen, including Xiao Chen himself, after all, they had not heard from him for three years, and anyone would think so.

But after three years, they reappeared, how could they not make Xiao Chen happy, it was his own brother and sister in this life!
