326: Chapter 326: Hand Over the Keys 326: Chapter 326: Hand Over the Keys After the ti had co, it was ti for the transfer ceremony.
The transfer ceremony did not concern Xiao Zhan; Xiao Tiance, representing the Xiao Family, simply had to go up and it was done.
Li Quanxian handed over the symbol of authority—a letter of appointnt—to Xiao Tiance.
Xiao Zhan noticed that Li Quanxian’s deanor was very composed, his actions and manners generous and asured, seemingly ready to fully accept things.
Yet in the shifting of his gaze, there was a hint of cold light that suggested everything was under control.
Indeed, the Li Corporation was not going to give up so easily.
After receiving the letter of appointnt, Xiao Tiance delivered a fervent speech that lasted one to two hours.
Xiao Zhan had absolutely no interest in listening to such nonsense, but he had no choice but to stay there for the one to two hour duration.
Truly, it was a tornt.
However, it was at this mont that Xiao Zhan suddenly noticed sothing amiss with the Han Family’s atmosphere.
Han Jinhui looked worried throughout, unable to lift his spirits.
That was very strange.
Considering the Han Family’s cooperative relationship with the Xiao Family, as the Xiao Family prospered, so too would the Han Family; why would he not be pleased?
Moreover, even if he had secretly collaborated with the Li Corporation, he should still be happy.
At the very least, he shouldn’t wear such a worried expression.
Additionally, Han Dingxiang was not present.
For such an important occasion, Han Dingxiang should have attended.
Thinking this, Xiao Zhan shared his suspicions with Ye Youlong.
Upon hearing this, Ye Youlong’s first response was, “What, you care so much about her?”
Who said that aloof won don’t get jealous?
Not even a thing done, and already so sour.
However, Ye Youlong’s remark was just a light tease.
Afterwards, she said, “There is indeed sothing odd about the Han Family; their vibe has been low ever since appearing today, and Han Dingxiang hasn’t shown her face at all.”
Xiao Zhan said, “Under such circumstances, it’s impossible for Han Dingxiang not to co.
The only possibility is that sothing must have happened to her.”
Having said that,
Xiao Zhan imdiately released his Perception.
However, the range of his Perception was limited, and Xiao Zhan couldn’t sense where Han Dingxiang was.
“If the Li Corporation is using Han Dingxiang as a threat, they would certainly keep her close by.”
Xiao Zhan perford a more ticulous search with his Perception.
Soon, he discovered sothing special; there was a small area within the Li Corporation’s camp that was shielded, and Xiao Zhan’s Perception received no feedback upon reaching there.
It seed there was a high probability that Han Dingxiang was there.
However, Xiao Zhan hesitated a bit and dared not act.
On one hand, given the current situation, Xiao Zhan couldn’t make a move.
On the other hand, the ability of the other party to block his Perception also caused him to feel uncertain.
If the opponent was strong, or had so special ability, or if this was a conspiracy laid against the Xiao Family,
Xiao Zhan’s rash actions would instead lose the initiative.
“Han Dingxiang won’t be in trouble for now, at least not before entering the Secret Realm,” Ye Youlong’s calm voice ca through.
Xiao Zhan couldn’t help but nod.
Her words were indeed right; controlling Han Dingxiang was nothing but a ans to make the Han Family serve them.
Since they had not yet entered the Secret Realm, Han Dingxiang would not be in trouble.
Soon, Xiao Tiance finished his speech.
What followed was another round of celebrations.
When all the ceremonies were finally concluded, the ti was almost noon.
At this point, people gradually started to disperse.
The Four Great Families also began to carry out the most important matter.
Everyone entered the interior of Four Symbols Mountain.
The interior was absolutely confidential; apart from a few key mbers, the Four Great Families couldn’t bring anyone else in.
However, today, seeing a few unfamiliar faces alongside the other families, the Four Great Families tacitly said nothing.
They all knew that today there would be a bloody battle.
After entering the interior of Four Symbols Mountain, there was a Barrier.
The Barrier did not require the combined effort of the four Family Heads; one person could activate it.
But entering this Barrier was not sothing just anyone could do, the requirents were even higher than entering the interior of Four Symbols Mountain, even the core mbers of each family could not enter.
Each family could only bring a pair of Spirit Masters besides the Family Head.
But on the Xiao Family’s side, apart from Xiao Tiance, there were Xiao Zhan and Ye Wudi among the four people.
Xiao Zhan originally should not have been allowed in; no younger generation had co in, but Xiao Zhan was the Xiao Family’s candidate for entering the Secret Realm, so after the Secret Realm was activated, he would need to enter.
So, he was allowed in.
As everyone started to enter the Barrier, Xiao Zhan suddenly noticed that the energy that had blocked Han Dingxiang before had disappeared, and Han Dingxiang suddenly appeared within his Perception.
Xiao Zhan’s gaze imdiately locked onto the pair of Spirit Masters beside Li Quanxian, because it was him who had moved from the crowd of Li Corporation to Li Quanxian’s side.
So, it was likely his doing.
However, Xiao Zhan only lingered on him for less than a tenth of a second before imdiately withdrawing, because he knew that a person capable of such feats must also be extrely sensitive to others’ detection.
Must not probe too long.
Sure enough, as Xiao Zhan withdrew his Perception, that person’s body imperceptibly paused for a mont.
But this, Xiao Zhan didn’t notice, as he had already withdrawn his Perception.
But it also didn’t matter.
After activating the Barrier, the people of the Four Great Families entered together.
But Xiao Zhan intentionally lagged a step behind them, and right as that Spirit Master entered, Xiao Zhan imdiately turned to glance at Hose, gave him a aningful look, and then went in.
He didn’t have the ability to transmit ssages telepathically, but he believed Hose would understand his intention.
Because previously outside, while discussing Han Dingxiang with Ye Youlong, Hose was also present.
After receiving Xiao Zhan’s ssage, Hose imdiately began to analyze what it ant.
A group of people entered the Barrier.
Xiao Zhan saw that the scenery inside was completely renewed, utterly different from the outside, as if they had arrived in a new world.
In the center of this new world, there was a square Array, with a statue erected at each of the four corners of the Array.
Upon closer inspection, one would realize that these four statues were actually the statues of the four divine beasts of the Longxia Federation.
Azure Dragon, Black Tortoise, Vermillion Bird, White Tiger.
“Family Head Xiao, did you bring the key?” Li Quanxian coldly asked.
After entering here, the atmosphere beca sowhat eerie.
One didn’t need to guess to know that Li Quanxian was preparing to make a move.
Of course, there was no need to pretend anymore.
Xiao Tiance replied, “At such a critical mont, how could I not bring the key?
But what about you, did you bring the key?”
“Hahaha, as you said, at such a critical mont, how could I not bring the key?”
Li Quanxian laughed loudly, and then the woman beside him transford into a broad, single-edged Artifact Spirit Saber in his hand.
The Artifact Spirit Saber was long and wide, single-edged, with a slight curve at the final third of the blade, silvery bright in color, with a red handle that was quite long, about fifty centiters.
It greatly resembled the Horse-cutting Saber from ancient tis!
As the long saber appeared in his hand, his face no longer concealed anything, twisting into a cold and grim expression, “Since we’ve all brought them, then hand over the key.”
