Chapter 437: Chapter 439: Siblings Reunite (Part 6)
Mu Ruyue’s eyes flashed, and she nodded slightly, “Alright.”
With her pace, who knew when she would be able to reach the Imperial City? Since there was soone willing to lead the way, why not go with them?
“Let’s continue our journey,” the middle-aged man waved his hand and shouted loudly.
After all, this girl’s master might be their only hope…
Fengyun Empire.
Inside the bustling Imperial City, a thriving scene unfolded.
At this mont, within the Xiao Family’s council hall, Xiao Feng stared coldly at the many elders in front of him. His face, as if carved by a knife, turned even colder. He didn’t speak a word, just quietly looked at them, and his silence made the atmosphere in the room even more solemn.
Xiao Feng, Xiao Tian has now been taken as an Alchemy Apprentice by Master Wushan, and his future is bright. However, during an herb-gathering expedition, his arm was bitten off by a Demon Beast. Without an arm, he can no longer continue to refine elixirs. Master Wushan has already seen him, and of the whole family, only your arm can be used for Xiao Tian. He is the hope of our Xiao Family, so we can only inconvenience you. Rest assured, our Xiao Family will not treat you poorly; we will have Master Wushan give you a Low-level Mortal elixir.”
Third Master Xiao looked at Xiao Feng with a pained expression but spoke in a commanding tone.
“Yes, Xiao Feng, Young Master Tian is an irreplaceable alchemy prodigy of our Xiao Family. Even Master Wushan said that by the age of twenty, he could reach the Peak of Earth Rank. Who could have expected such a disaster to occur? Xiao Feng, you have joined the Xiao Family, which ans you are a part of the family. We can only trouble you with this matter.”
“A Low-level Mortal elixir is already quite good. Don’t be too greedy, or your greed will only ruin things.”
The elders began persuading him, one after another.
Xiao Tian is a prodigy of the Xiao Family, breaking through to Innate at such a young age and possessing a Talent for alchemy. Now, only eighteen, he has already reached Earth-grade advanced and is very likely to hit the Peak by his twentieth year. Who knew such a thing would happen…
You, Xiao Feng, are nothing but the offspring of that waste Xiao Yun. You shouldn’t have returned to the Xiao Family in the first place; it was out of sympathy that the Family Head allowed you to co back. You should be grateful. Now it is your turn to repay our Xiao Family; surely you can’t refuse, can you?
It’s just an arm, after all. You’re not an Alchemist. For fighting, one arm is enough. Nothing is more important than our Xiao Family’s prodigy.
Even if the Family Head were here, it would be the sa; he couldn’t disregard his own grandson for an outsider’s sake.
Xiao Feng’s expression beca even colder, and a malevolent aura emanated from him, “What does Xiao Tian have to do with ? His injury was his own doing.”
Everyone was stunned; no one had expected Xiao Feng to refuse. Instantly, they began to berate him angrily.
“Xiao Feng, this is too much. Our Xiao Family has supported you for so long, even sending people to search for you. Now you’re not even considering repaynt—it’s just an arm, and it’s not like we aren’t compensating you. What more do you want?”
Watching their faces, Xiao Feng’s heart let out a cold laugh.
In their eyes, as long as Xiao Tian could recover, it didn’t matter how many people were sacrificed. But why should he sacrifice himself for him?
Sorry, but this was sothing he truly could not do.
“If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave now,” Xiao Feng’s cold voice swept over those detestable faces.
Third Master Xiao’s face suddenly changed, and abruptly, he let out a cold laugh.
