"Ha ha ha, it's done, it's done!"
"Another hour, and Xiao Chen really pulled it off."
Xiao Chixiong, who was keeping watch outside the courtyard, couldn't help but laugh out loud as he watched Xiao Chen's departing figure.
No wonder his precious daughter, whom he had raised with such care, didn't let him down tonight.
"Didn't expect you to succeed too, old man."
"But ultimately, you're still a step behind my daughter. From now on, Xiao Chen has to call father-in-law first, and you have to wait in line."
Seeing Xiao Chixiong's smug expression, Xiao Mingyi couldn't help but interject.
"You're talking nonsense. Who Xiao Chen wants to call first is his own decision."
"Just because your daughter got to him first doesn't an he has to call you father-in-law."
Hearing Xiao Mingyi's words, Xiao Chixiong imdiately retorted.
"Hey, Xiao Second, are you itching for a beating? Let loosen your soil!"
Seeing Xiao Chixiong's arrogant face, Xiao Mingyi coldly sneered, cracking his knuckles before lunging at him with a mischievous grin.
A childish scuffle broke out between the two n.
Watching this scene, Xiao Delong couldn't help but twitch his face.
These damned old fellows, just because their daughters got close to Xiao Chen, they were all acting so smug.
Xiao Chen had no interest in paying attention to these three old n.
But upon returning to his courtyard, Xiao Chen suddenly noticed a figure standing quietly in the center.
It was Cai Yan.
"Miss Cai Yan, you haven't rested yet?"
Seeing dusa Queen gazing at the moon, Xiao Chen walked closer and asked in surprise.
"The moonlight is quite beautiful tonight, I couldn't help but take a few more glances. But it seems the Xiao Family was a bit restless just now."
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Cai Yan replied sowhat cryptically, her tone carrying a hint of jealousy.
This made Xiao Chen's body stiffen slightly, and his expression beca sowhat guilty.
Restless?
Was she implying... that the commotion tonight was too loud?!
Could it be that the dusa Queen had been spying on him with her spiritual sense all night?!
Thinking of this, Xiao Chen panicked a bit.
It felt like being caught in the act, but then he couldn't help but freeze.
Wait a minute!
He and Cai Yan had no special relationship, so why was he feeling so guilty?
This was pure madness!
A man... must remain calm and take control.
"People say the dusa Queen is cold by nature, but I didn't expect Miss Cai Yan to be so moved by the scenery."
With this thought in mind, Xiao Chen smiled faintly, dissolving the invisible awkwardness.
"But as beautiful as the moonlight is, don't let it delay your rest."
After saying this, Xiao Chen didn't linger and walked straight into the side room.
Although he intended to win over Cai Yan, there was no need to overly pursue.
Being too humble and explaining everything would only make him more passive.
Letting things take their natural course was best.
It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from ".
"Does the young master think I'm too cold?"
Seeing Xiao Chen return to his room, Cai Yan's eyes dimd slightly.
As a mber of the Naga Tribe, she was naturally cold.
But Xiao Chen was the one person in her life who could stir her emotions, even making her want to protect him for a lifeti.
So, sensing Xiao Chen's involvent with two other won, she felt quite hurt.
That's why she stood in the courtyard, gazing at the moon to calm herself.
But after so reflection, she realized she had no right to interfere with Xiao Chen.
After all, not only had he saved her life, but he had also bestowed great favors upon her, allowing her to repair and upgrade her inner armor.
Whom he liked among human won was his freedom and pursuit.
She couldn't interfere with Xiao Chen's private life like a queen.
"Do I need to be more proactive and gentle like those two for the young master to like ?"
As her thoughts grew chaotic, this idea popped into Cai Yan's mind, making her blush slightly.
As the dusa Queen of the Naga Tribe, taking the initiative with a man was as difficult for her as breaking through to the Saint Realm.
"No, the young master is not an ordinary man. If I never take the initiative, I might never hold a place in his heart."
"I can't miss out on my true destiny because of my pride. I must learn to take the initiative!"
With this self-encouragent, Cai Yan suddenly lifted her head, her face showing determination.
As the reincarnation of a Great Emperor, Xiao Chen had seen all kinds of won in his past life.
He wouldn't like won who were jealous over small things. In the future, there would be more outstanding won by his side.
To hold a place in Xiao Chen's heart, she had to beco more excellent and share his burdens, not fight over trivial matters.
Otherwise, she and Xiao Chen would drift further apart!
Understanding this, Cai Yan felt a sense of clarity, and her eyes beca brighter.
Although this decision seed absurd, enough to make the old fellows of the Naga Tribe feel humiliated, she believed she would not regret it in the future.
"Starting tomorrow, I must be more proactive!"
Suppressing her thoughts, Cai Yan resisted the urge to seduce Xiao Chen and returned to her side room, deep in thought.
She needed to carefully consider how to take the initiative without being abrupt, while also getting closer to Xiao Chen.
It was truly a headache!
…………
anwhile, in the Lin Family of Heavenly Capital City.
Although it was already late at night, Lin Yao's study was still brightly lit, and he appeared extrely uneasy and restless.
In the two days since Lin Xiaotian and Lin Xiaofeng led many elders to destroy the Xiao Family in Floating Cloud City, he had been inexplicably anxious.
It seed that sothing would go wrong on this trip!
So, until he knew whether the mission was successful, Lin Yao couldn't calm down.
"Patriarch, there's news from Floating Cloud City!!"
Just as Lin Yao was feeling increasingly uneasy, a man rushed in, looking panicked, and fell to the ground.
"The Supre Elders... they're all dead!!"
Boom!!
As the man's words fell, it was like a thunderclap in Lin Yao's mind, and his aura beca chaotic.
"What did you say?!"
Lin Yao rushed to the man, lifting him up, his eyes instantly bloodshot.
"Those were two Celestial Grotto Realm experts and over a dozen Core Formation Realm experts, enough to sweep through all of Floating Cloud City."
"How could they all be dead?!!"
By the end, Lin Yao was shouting, spitting in the man's face.
It wasn't surprising he was so distraught.
Those were over ninety percent of the Lin Family's top experts. Their deaths would be devastating for the Lin Family.
"Patriarch, it's absolutely true..."
The man, terrified, continued tremblingly.
"Reportedly, when the Supre Elders led the charge into the Xiao Family, a blood-red light shot up from within."
"It seed to be a terrifying Heaven Rank Killing Formation, and after that, the Supre Elders and the others never ca out."
"Heaven... Heaven Rank Formation?"
Hearing the man's report, Lin Yao felt as if his body had been drained, his hands releasing the man, and he collapsed to the ground.
"The Lin Family... is finished..."
Three Celestial Grotto Realm Supre Elders and over a dozen Core Formation Realm elders, all dead in just a few days.
The Lin Family was left with only him, the patriarch, and a bunch of incapable stewards. How could they hold the Lin Family's ground in Heavenly Capital City?!
"No, the Lin Family isn't finished. There's still Lin Feng; he might be able to save the Lin Family!"
Rembering his son Lin Feng was an Inner Disciple of the Supre Sword Sect, Lin Yao trembled as he got up and imdiately sent a ssage to Lin Feng.
If Lin Feng could persuade the elders of the Supre Sword Sect and use the Xiao Family's Heaven Rank Formation as bait, they might be able to leverage the sect's power to destroy the Xiao Family, giving the Lin Family a chance to survive!
