The suburbs of Jucheng.

The huge mansion sits quietly on the horizon.

At the entrance of the mansion, on a large stone that is more than one person high, the words 'Xiao family' are engraved with dragons flying and phoenixes dancing.

The Xiao family's mansion, once used by the Xiao family and others to live in a quiet mansion, since the Xiao Group had a series of accidents more than half a year ago, this mansion has become the last gathering place of the Xiao family.

There are not many residents in the house, except for the Xiao family, only Zhang Qianfan, Sheng Qi and other martial artists who followed Xiao Dongchen still live in it.

At this time, in the meeting hall of the Xiao family's mansion.

The wide hall was full of people at this time, but the atmosphere in the hall was a little depressing.

At the head of the hall, two old men sat upright with serious faces.

Among them, the left hand became older and looked older, although his vitality was not weak, but he did not have any true qi fluctuations, and was obviously just an ordinary person.

And the old man on the right hand, in addition to looking younger, his aura is also more powerful, and if there are no true qi fluctuations emanating from his body, he is a true value of the Transformation Realm Grandmaster-level powerhouse.

These two old men are Xiao Zhenguo and Zhang Qianfan.

As the only first generation of the Xiao family, Xiao Zhenguo is naturally qualified to sit in the first place, as for Zhang Qianfan, although his strength is not the strongest in the Xiao family, after all, his age and knowledge are not comparable to others, so it is reasonable to sit in the first place.

At this time, Xiao Zhenguo and Zhang Qianfan were silent.

Xiao Zhenguo leaned back in his chair with a tired expression, he was the head of the Xiao family, and the setbacks he had experienced were simply countless, and he had already developed an extremely strong heart.

But the successive blows in the past year have exhausted the weather-beaten old man.

Xiao Dongchen disappeared.

The Shaw Group went bankrupt and fell.

No matter what it is, it has a great impact on him. Xiao Dongchen is his favorite grandson, and the Xiao Group was founded by him, but now all of them have accidents, so you can imagine what kind of psychological pressure he is under.

In his starting position, Tang Luoxin, Han Zhengxuan, Xiao Xinran, Xiao Yiran, Xiao Qingran and other members of the Xiao family were all sitting here, their faces were quite heavy.

And when Zhang Qianfan started, there were Shengqi, Ah Huang, and several other unfamiliar figures.

There are a total of seven of these figures, and the strongest of the seven is a low-grade grandmaster who once came to defect to Xiao Dongchen, and after coming to the Xiao family, he successfully broke through to the realm of a middle-grade grandmaster, and below him, there are three lower-grade grandmasters and three martial artists at the peak of the inner family.

In the first place, Zhang Qianfan glanced up at Sheng Qi and the seven martial artists, and sighed deeply.

Today's Xiao family, except for him, Shengqi, and Ah Huang, these seven martial artists are already all the combat power in the Xiao family.

There are a total of four Transformation Realm Grandmasters among the seven people, which sounds like a lot, but compared to the number of Transformation Realm Grandmasters of the Xiao family a year ago, it has shrunk several times.

More than a year ago, when Xiao Dongchen returned to the Xiao family for the last time, there were three people in the Xiao family with top-grade grandmaster-level combat power, in addition to Zhang Qianfan and Shengqi, the former Ghost Gu Sect elder Shi Honghai also broke through to the top-grade grandmaster realm in the Xiao family, and his strength was not weak.

As for the number of martial artists under the top-grade grandmaster, it is even more, seven, seven, eighty, eight and eight combined, even if you only count the transformation realm grandmaster, there are more than twenty people.

This amount is naturally nothing for those Heavenly Sect factions in the martial arts world, but don't forget, the Xiao family is just an ordinary family, these Transformation Realm Grandmasters are all defecting here, and more than twenty Transformation Realm Grandmasters are already an extremely considerable combat force when they are united.

In particular, the martial arts of XX Province have never been very prosperous, and once the Divine Medicine Sect was enough to dominate the entire XX Province with just two Transformation Realm Grandmasters, it is conceivable how strong the martial arts strength of the Xiao family is.

"The trees are falling and scattered, and those who should go are gone. ”

Zhang Qianfan stared at it, although his face did not move, but he couldn't help shaking his head in his heart.

Since Xiao Dongchen disappeared and the Xiao family fell into danger, the number of martial artists in the Xiao family has been decreasing.

At first, it was only a few people, but a few months ago, with the departure of Shi Honghai, a top-grade Grandmaster, more than ten Transformation Realm Grandmasters followed suit.

The Xiao family's originally considerable combat power suddenly shrank seriously, and over time, it reached the point where it is today.

"It's been sitting for so long, Mr. Zhang, have you thought of any solution? ”

In the quiet hall, at this time, a voice suddenly sounded, breaking the calm atmosphere in the hall.

At Xiao Zhenguo's hand, Xiao Yiran, the son of the Xiao family, stared at Zhang Qianfan tightly, and the words just now came out of his mouth.

"Solution ......"

Zhang Qianfan frowned for a while, and finally shook his head slowly.

He can be regarded as having some strategy, but in the face of absolute strength, the so-called strategy is simply vulnerable.

"Mr. Zhang, today is their deadline, and we don't have much time. Next to Xiao Yiran, Xiao Qingran, the third elder of the Xiao family, said eagerly.

"Third brother, don't get excited, although the current situation is not optimistic, but this deadline is just a casual remark by those people, the formation left by Xiaochen is very strong, and it has been over for more than half a year, so it shouldn't be broken. ”

Han Zhengxuan sat on the other side of Xiao Yiran, and at this time, seeing Xiao Qingran's eager face, he slowly opened his mouth to persuade.

"Why don't you say that if you break it, you will break it? The formation is dead, the people are alive, and the strength of those people is stronger than Mr. Zhang, do you think they can't even break a formation? In the previous half a year, I'm afraid they didn't want to contribute at all, otherwise, our Xiao family's mansion would have been flattened by them a long time ago. Xiao Qingran snorted coldly, but instead of calming down, his emotions became more excited.

"Also, don't mention Xiaochen to me, I'll be angry when I talk about him, I know that these people are Xiaochen's enemies outside, if it weren't for him, how could our Xiao family fall to the current point?

"Third brother, what you said is a bit excessive, Xiaochen is gone, are you still talking about this, is it interesting?" Hearing Xiao Qingran's words, Xiao Xinran couldn't sit still and refuted directly.

Xiao Qingran smiled disdainfully: "What, I can't listen to it anymore?" Your third brother has always spoken in this tone, hum, I am already merciful, if it weren't for watching Xiaochen disappear, I would have to scold him." ”

"Back then, the second brother just disappeared suddenly without saying a word, but now Xiaochen is also here, he really deserves to be a father and son, and even the way of doing things is the same, and although he disappeared, who knows if he is really gone or where he is happy!"
