Chapter 17: Revealing Strength

"Dad, what's wrong?" After catching up with Xiao Zhan, Xiao Ran said thoughtfully.

Seeing Xiao Ran appear, Xiao Zhan first showed a smile on his face, but he took it back almost instantly, glanced at Xiao Ran and said lightly: "You don't need to know, you just don't make trouble during this time, the day after tomorrow is your sister's birthday, you can accompany her well!" Xiao Zhan turned around and prepared to leave after saying this.

"Wait, Dad, it's not suitable to talk here, let's go to your room and talk!" Xiao Ran said softly, with a hint of sincerity in his eyes.

Xiao Zhan was also stunned at the moment, the first time he saw his son talking to him in this tone, he had no fear at all, as if he had changed a person, but how to say that Xiao Ran was also his son, so he nodded and agreed.

In Xiao Zhan's room, Xiao Ran's mother Murong Wan had already gone out to have lunch, and only Xiao Ran and Xiao Zhan's father and son were left in the room.

"Say, what's the matter?" Xiao Zhan was really a little curious at the moment, his son Pingyu only knew that he was romantic, and he had nothing to do, and he was made a head or two by him, but now it is rare to be serious, Xiao Zhan is a little unbelievable.

"The Wang family wants to make a move on the Xiao family, you should guess it, right?" Xiao Ran said softly.

"Well, we already know this, how do you know that?" Xiao Zhan said with some astonishment, in peace, this Xiao Ran in front of him didn't care about anything in the family at all, how could he see this kind of sophistication?

"I'm not stupid, can't I see this?, they did it on purpose last time I was seriously injured!" Xiao Ran said with a disdainful smile on the corner of his mouth, completely ignoring Xiao Zhan, who was looking at him with surprise in his eyes.

As if feeling that the stimulation was not enough, Xiao Ran continued: "Then the head of the Wang family, Wang Huatian, has the same cultivation as yours, right? And as far as I know, the ancestor of the Wang family has also made a breakthrough in cultivation, and now it should also be the eighth level of the Sword King, and as for Wang Yan on the other side, who has just returned, his cultivation has reached the ninth level of the Sword King, presumably you know these better than me, right? How are you going to deal with it?"

Hearing Xiao Ran's words, Xiao Zhan's brows furrowed deeper and deeper, but for Xiao Ran's words, he had already believed seven points, because almost none of the words Xiao Ran said were wrong, only the ancestor of the Wang family didn't know about it, but where did Xiao Ran know about it?

"You know so well and so well?" Xiao Zhan said with a frown as he looked at Xiao Ran, who was both familiar and seemed a little unfamiliar.

"These are all what my master told me!" Xiao Ran had already thought of this reason before looking for his father, and only in this way could many family members not suspect it.

"Your master, why don't I know?" These Xiao Zhan are really not calm, when did his son have a master?

"My master was worshiped by me some time ago, my master is a master of the world, I was injured last time, and my injury was healed by my master!" Xiao Ran laughed softly.

"Do you know the details of your master, can you let your father meet him?" Xiao Zhan said with a frown, his already serious face looked even more majestic.

"He doesn't want to see you for the time being, but you don't have to worry, he won't harm me, my cultivation has now been promoted to the seventh level of a swordsman, do you know?" After saying this, a momentum suddenly rose from Xiao Ran's body, and the cultivation that was originally covered by the secret method was completely revealed again.

Swordsman Level 4!

Swordsman Level 5!

Swordsman level six!

did not stop, the momentum released by Xiao Ran continued to increase, and there was no pause.

Swordsman level seven!

The seventh-level peak of the swordsman, until he reached the seventh-level peak of the swordsman, the continuous growth of the momentum on Xiao Ran's body slowly slowed down, and in the past few days, Xiao Ran has completely compressed and refined his true qi, otherwise he may be able to reach the level of the great swordsman now.

"Dad, do you believe it now?" Xiao Ran took back the momentum on his body last night, but he maintained it at the peak state of the fourth level, and then asked Xiao Zhan, who was a little stunned.

"Huh?" After Xiao Ran's reminder, Xiao Zhan reacted, and the stunned on his face gradually turned into surprise, and then into shock, yes, shock.

Xiao Ran has only been injured for a month since he was injured, but Xiao Ran's cultivation has gone from the third level of a swordsman to the seventh level of a swordsman, and it is still the peak, which is enough to break all the people who were originally called geniuses in Tianwu City, even if it is on the Wolong Continent, there are not many people who have improved their cultivation against the sky, I'm afraid there are not many, right?

However, in any case, Xiao Zhan was also the lord of a city, so he quickly adjusted his thoughts back, and after slowly exhaling a breath, he said to Xiao Ran: "Does anyone else know about your cultivation besides me?" Xiao Zhan said softly.

At this moment, Xiao Zhan's heart was filled with countless pride, over the years, because of the various problems caused by Xiao Ran's slow improvement and Xiao Ran's surname, Xiao Zhan and even the Xiao family have borne a lot of infamy, and even many elders have unanimously excluded Xiao Zhan as the head of the family;

Xiao Ran is Xiao Zhan's only son, if he has a son, what more can he ask for?

And when Xiao Ran said this, his heart instantly warmed, sure enough, his father still cares about him the most, now that the Xiao family is in a dangerous period, if the obvious cultivation leaks out, I'm afraid it won't be long before people from all walks of life come to find trouble with Xiao Ran, and they may even die because of it.

"Except for you, only my master knows, but my master won't care about anything in Tianwu City, so don't worry!" Xiao Ran said softly, and while saying this, Xiao Ran also sighed slightly in his heart.

How could Xiao Ran not know his father's thoughts? But where else did he want Xiao Ran to get a master out? Besides, how many people in this world were qualified to be sword masters? Xiao Ran said this just to dispel Xiao Zhan's desire to let Xiao Ran ask his master to come out.

Xiao Zhan is also a smart person, Xiao Ran said it so obviously, Xiao Zhan nodded as a matter of course, thinking that this is the demeanor that a master's predecessor should have, in Xiao Zhan's heart, he has already regarded Xiao Ran's master as a master at the Sword Emperor level, and only a master at the Sword Emperor level has the ability to improve a person's cultivation to this level in just one month.

After an hour-long conversation inside, Xiao Ran had a sumptuous dinner with Xiao Zhan, Murong Wan and Ling'er, who had just come out of retreat, and at the dining table, there was a harmonious scene that the family had not seen for a long time, although Murong Wan was surprised by Xiao Zhan's attitude, but he was also happy.

After lunch, Xiao Ran said goodbye to his parents and returned to his room to continue his retreat.
