Chapter 393: Chapter 394: Breaking Through to Low-level Mortal Alchemist (Part 2)
It seed that Xiao Baixuan saw Mu Ruyue’s confusion and, with a helpless smile, he said, “That’s why I’m saying, all of this is because of jealousy. Those guys used to show respect to Xiao Yun on the surface, but in their hearts, they were jealous of his talent. Eventually, when Xiao Yun was frad and his strength stagnated, they banded together with others from their line to oppress him, and in the end, they even forced him out of the family.”
A young prodigy at Innate Perfection, even if he couldn’t continue to cultivate, just by maintaining that strength, should not have been driven out of the family…
But how could those who envied him let such an opportunity slip by? The once-in-a-generation talent of the Xiao family, that’s who fell because of those envious people…
“Girl, do you know what those people said after Xiao Yun left? They declared to the world that it wasn’t just that Xiao Yun’s strength had stopped progressing, but that it was regressing bit by bit. That way, they wouldn’t invite public criticism, and even the Xiao family firmly believed it to be true. I too was just by chance when I overheard those people’s conversation,” Xiao Baixuan paused, “I even suspect that the ones who frad Xiao Yun were not so-called enemies of the Xiao family, but perhaps people from within the Xiao family itself.”
In a large family, there is always constant strife, and so people will stop at nothing to gain a higher position, even if it ans framing a talented mber of their own family…
“Then why did you leave my brother in the Xiao family? Aren’t you afraid those people will make a move on him?” Mu Ruyue raised an eyebrow, her gaze falling upon Xiao Baixuan’s aged face.
After hearing all this, she no longer associated the old man with those people. At least, he wasn’t soone who had hard the elder…
“Xiao Feng’s strength is not as weak as you imagine. Recently, those old fellows have all gone into seclusion. As long as they don’t co out, he won’t be in any danger,” Xiao Baixuan reassured her.
If that weren’t the case, how could he possibly leave Xiao Feng alone in the Xiao family? Besides those old fellows, no one else could harm him…
“Since Xiao Feng is at our Xiao family, girl, shouldn’t you co back with to see him? That kid has sent a large number of people out to look for you; they’re almost going mad.” There was a certain expectation in Xiao Baixuan’s eyes.
If this girl returned with him to the Xiao family, maybe they could really suppress those stubborn old fools.
They’re all so old, why won’t they just die? They might as well leave opportunities for the younger generation…
“Alright,” Mu Ruyue’s eyes flickered for a mont, “In a few days, I will go with you to see my brother, but on the precondition that you have not deceived .”
Xiao Baixuan let out a sigh of relief, glaring at the nearby Dean with an aggrieved expression, “Would I dare to deceive you? If I did deceive you, wouldn’t this old man slaughter ?”
“As long as you know,” the Dean gave him a glance, “This girl is from our Central State Academy. If your Xiao family dares to do her any harm, even though I myself can’t beat those old immortals from your family, you know very well how much influence our Academy has, especially since there are so large families that owe Moon Venerate favors and have vowed to unconditionally assist the Academy once at the request of their descendants.”
Xiao Baixuan gave a wry smile.
Just as the old man said, he indeed couldn’t beat so many of those old immortals, but if he intended to destroy the Xiao family, it would be an easy feat. With just one word from him, there would be many willing to beco his enforcers. However powerful the Xiao family might be, they could not withstand so many opposing forces…
