Shaw House.

It's still the two stone lions standing tall, or the lapis lazuli steps, and the neatly laid black carpet.

The left and right sides of the long black carpet were still lined with guards with long swords in their hands.

Everything is slightly the same as before, but it is only a superficial phenomenon.

In Xiao's mansion, a melancholy young man crouched in front of the eaves of the master bedroom, and he didn't dare to look inside for a long time.

After a while, he sighed and spoke:

"Dad, the overseer is looking for you over there......"

- "Didn't I tell you to stop bothering me?" ”

"Yes, yes......"

The boy replied with a shudder and ran away quickly.

His name is Xiao Tianhao, Xiao Wancheng's only son, perhaps because his father is too domineering and scheming, and he has a sentimental and weak personality under long-term high pressure.

For his father Xiao Wancheng, he has always been in awe, don't usually talk about communication, even accosting and greeting are rare.

But recently, since Xiao Wancheng came back from Tianxian Courtyard, he seems to have changed as a different person, directly locking himself in the house, and even having to reprimand his subordinates for bringing the meal, and the obsidian inspector has ignored the official affairs over there.

This is just too abnormal.

Xiao Wancheng didn't know anything about Xiao Wancheng outside the mansion, but whenever he was in the mansion, he would always devote himself to official business, and discuss the recent schedule with the inspectors of those subordinates, and he was resolute and decisive.

But now my father behaved as if he had done something wrong, like a man who had committed a terrible crime and was waiting to be beheaded.

Father, what's wrong?

————

In the private room, Xiao Wancheng sat on a bench in front of the couch, hot and unbearably hot, and had foreseen the future he was about to face.

He still had the fire power cast by Lin Ye in his body, but it was much weaker than before.

In the past two days, I couldn't think about it day and night, and even in my dreams, I was the shadow of this fire, and my words and deeds were driven by its control, until I returned to Xiao's Mansion, it seemed that this fire had stopped a little, and I no longer could absolutely threaten myself as before.

But when he escaped from the fear of this fire skill, when Xiao Wancheng's brain gradually cleared up, he realized what the real horror was.

He let go of so many demon clans in the Heavenly Immortal Courtyard, and how should Xiao Wancheng get out of being held accountable in the future.

For this reason, Xiao Wancheng specially sent someone to deliver a secret letter to the major families of the Dao League who had a good relationship with him, and asked Xiao Zhi to reason and move with affection, if there was a family hostile to him to come to the door, Xiao Wancheng pretended to go out to work, and asked Xiao Tianhao to send guests.

These have been discussed clearly with Xiao Tianhao and the supervision envoys, but Xiao Wancheng still can't let go, because since the secret letter was issued, no Dao Alliance family has come to the door.

A short time later, an inspector knocked on the door.

"Master, the head of the Li family has arrived."

"Is it Old Man Li? Only him? ”

"Yes, he's the only one. You see? ”

"I'll be right out."

Xiao Wancheng seemed to grasp a life-saving straw, propped up his numb legs and patted his cheeks, and walked out of the lobby in a trance.

When he arrived in the lobby, Old Man Li was sitting on an Arhat stool, and Xiao Tianhao was making him tea.

As soon as he saw Xiao Wancheng, Xiao Tianhao immediately looked shocked, and retreated in a panic without waiting for his father to speak.

"Brother Li! I'll wait for you......"

- "You don't have to be polite. ”

Old Man Li shook his head and waved his hand, sighing bitterly.

With this wave of his hand, before he could say a word, Xiao Wancheng's heart was half cold.

"Brother Xiao, you said that you were driven to let go of those fox demons, did you really not run away from this matter?"

"This ...... It's true that I'm driven! ”

"Is it really the hand of that disciple of the Dongfang family?"

"Exactly!"

Old Man Li nodded and stopped mentioning this topic directly.

After a while, Mr. Li began to chat with Xiao Wancheng about some ordinary things, basically Xiao Wancheng was not interested in the parents at all, and it didn't take long for Mr. Li to pat his ass and go home.

With the departure of Old Man Li, Xiao Wancheng's face became more and more ugly.

He could already foresee that the Dao Alliance's side was not willing to defend him at all, and did not believe any of his claims.

After Old Man Li left Xiao Mansion far away, a red-haired little girl suddenly came forward and approached him with a somewhat sly evil smile.

"Dad, did you say that the Xiao family is really finished this time?"

She is the third daughter of Li Muchen and the Li family. Her two eldest brothers, Li Quxun and Li Zizi, are both geniuses among the younger generation of Daomeng.

"This kid, the dust hasn't settled yet, and it's too early to make a judgment."

"Hehe~ That's nine times out of ten, right?"

"Why, you hate them so much?"

"Of course, they have a bunch of rules, and you don't dislike them yet, Daddy."

"I don't care, it's just that as you said, this time Xiao Mansion is probably a god and it will be difficult to save it. The reason why I came here is just to miss the old love. ”

Old Man Li sighed, thinking that his daughter's mind was really bright, and she didn't know anything about it, but she could guess the result by chasing the wind and shadows.

"This time, Xiao Wancheng can't get rid of the charge of letting go of the fox demon, my father didn't expect him to put the charge on the head of the Dongfang family, and also said that the Divine Fire Spirit Clan has evil art to control people, it's really ridiculous......"

"Manipulating the sorcery of people? Isn't that the fox mind technique of the Tushan Fox Demon? Dad, did you say that it was possible that the Tushan Fox Demon used the Fox Mind Technique to give Uncle Xiao to ......"

"That's what he did for himself. Ay...... Brother Xiao is a little scheming, but he hates the demon clan the most in his life, and he never imagined that this kind of thing would happen. ”

Old Man Li shook his head again.

"Every demon clan in the Heavenly Immortal Courtyard should have been dealt with with with the Demon Talisman or the Demon Talisman, as the ruler of that area, he would make such a mistake and let the efforts of the Daoists go to waste, this crime is not small. If we wade into this troubled water, we may all be killed......"

——————

"Tianhao, you immediately pack up your things and leave the Xiao Mansion with your father in half a pillar of incense!"

"Also, you tell those Taoists to listen, and once someone asks where we are, report it directly and report that there is something important to go out!"

Xiao Wancheng ordered Xiao Tianhao with a solemn face.

"Where are we going?"

"Leave it alone, go!"

"Oooh......"

Seeing Xiao Tianhao's back in a hurry, Xiao Wancheng also began to clean up his things quickly.

"The South, the North Mountains, the Western and Western Regions, even the island countries that have crossed to the mysterious Longwan Sea...... You can't stay here for long! ”
