Xiao Zhan's request, the unification of Wu Tan City
Xiao Ming thought for a moment and understood. However, he already knew that the Fourth Grade Medicinal Pill Scroll would be wasted, so there was no point in arguing about it. So he said...
"Hehe, it's nothing, don't worry about it."
Seeing Xiao Ming drink the wine, the Great Elder frowned, exchanged glances, and said nothing.
Now that Xiao Zhan has achieved his goal, they can no longer bring up this matter.
Ya Fei, standing beside him, watched Xiao Zhan with great interest. With Mitel's Intelligence Network, she was naturally well aware of the fact that Xiao Zhan had taken his son around seeking medical treatment.
At the time, she was very surprised. How could Xiao Zhan have managed to get Fourth Grade Alchemist to come? Fourth Grade Alchemist was a big shot in the Jia Ma Empire. She never expected that Xiao Ming would pay for the medicine. Now it makes sense.
After Xiao Ming drank a glass, Xiao Zhan did not return to his seat, but poured himself another glass.
"Supreme Elder, I have another request."
Xiao Ming raised an eyebrow, knowing that the main event was about to begin, and the previous two drinks were just a prelude.
He asked with great interest, "What is it? Tell me about it."
"Ahem, it's just that my son Xiao Yan's illness hasn't been cured. You are a Grade Six Alchemist, so I would like to ask you to take another look at Yan'er's condition."
Grade Six Alchemist!
Before Xiao Ming could reply, Master Gu Ni, who was seated, exclaimed in surprise.
It's not that Master Gu Ni lacked composure; it's simply because Grade Six Alchemist is just too astonishing.
In the entire Jia Ma Empire, only Pill King Gu He is Sixth Rank, and there are only a handful of Fifth Rank below the Sixth Rank.
Shocked, Gu Ni even wondered if the identity of this Grade Six Alchemist was fake.
After a moment's thought, Gu Ni realized that this was probably true. After all, Xiao Ming had no reason to lie to them; there was no benefit in doing so.
Ya Fei's sexy little mouth was slightly open, her face also full of disbelief.
With the combined strength of Grade Six Alchemist and Dou Wang, they could easily annihilate the Mittel Family.
The guests sitting at other tables were also shocked when they heard Gu Ni's shout, and their gazes toward Xiao Ming were filled with even greater awe.
At the same time, the envy and jealousy he felt towards the Xiao Family were about to reach the heavens. Why could the Xiao Family produce a genius of this caliber, while his family had none?
Xiao Ming looked up at Xiao Zhan, thought for a moment, and then nodded, saying, "Okay, bring him here tomorrow morning. I can take a look at him, but the disappearance of his Dou Qi is too strange. I can't guarantee I can cure it."
Xiao Ming Xiao Zhan couldn't hide his joy at Xiao Ming's response and thanked him repeatedly.
As for Xiao Ming's statement that he couldn't guarantee a cure, he simply ignored it. In his view, Grade Six Alchemist was already an unattainable existence, and he didn't believe that such an existence couldn't cure his son.
Unfortunately, Xiao Zhan was unaware that he was destined to be disappointed this time. Unless Xiao Ming was willing to directly capture Old Man Yao, Xiao Yan's useless state would likely continue for some time.
Many of the younger generation of the Xiao Family were also present at the banquet. Xiao Yan, as Xiao Zhan's son, was ridiculed by many clansmen, but he was still at the banquet today.
However, he didn't sit at the same table as Xiao Ming and the others, but in the area with the younger generation of the Xiao Family, where he could see Xiao Zhan's every move.
A surge of emotion welled up in his heart. Over the years, he had been ridiculed and insulted by the entire family, but only his father and brother had treated him the same as always, and even loved him more.
How could he not be moved!
At the same time, a surge of excitement welled up in his heart. Xiao Ming was Grade Six Alchemist, and if he was willing to help, he could definitely cure him.
No one cared about Xiao Yan's inner feelings. Sitting not far away, Xiao Yu glanced at Xiao Yan, who seemed out of place among his surroundings, and a mocking smile appeared on his lips.
"Xiao Yan, you're really lucky to have Uncle Xiao Zhan personally ask Cousin Xiao Ming to treat your illness!"
Now, Xiao Yan has lost all his spirit due to the ridicule from his clansmen over the years. He remains silent in the face of Xiao Yu's mockery, as if he's immune to the itch of being lice.
"Heh." Xiao Yu merely chuckled coldly, without continuing her mockery.
After all, it's really unnecessary to make yourself unhappy in such a great atmosphere.
Hearing Xiao Yu's words, Gu Xun'er, who was standing nearby, merely glanced at Xiao Yan indifferently.
Now, Gu Xun'er, having never experienced Xiao Yan sneaking into her room in the middle of the night, has no romantic feelings for Xiao Yan. In fact, because of that incident, she doesn't have a very good impression of him.
So after glancing at Xiao Yan, the fallen genius, Gu Xun'er quickly turned her gaze to Xiao Ming, lost in thought.
The banquet lasted for quite some time. During this time, Gu Ni, upon learning that Xiao Ming was Grade Six Alchemist, just like the other faction leaders who had previously been speechless, approached Xiao Ming with eager smiles and asked him all sorts of questions.
For Xiao Ming, Gu Ni's question was as simple as one plus one equals two. Xiao Ming casually pointed out a few points to Gu Ni, which made the smile on his face even more enthusiastic and respectful.
Looking at the once arrogant Gu Ni, now transformed into this, Ya Fei blinked, feeling a deep sense of understanding.
Valley
If there weren't no empty seats next to Xiao Ming, she would have liked to move over there too.
Time passed slowly, and the banquet finally drew to a close.
As the event was nearing its end, Xiao Zhan, beaming, suddenly stood up and called out, "Ahem, everyone, please be quiet. While all the major and minor powers of Wu Tan City are present, our Xiao Family has something important to inform you all."
Xiao Zhan's words immediately silenced the noisy hall.
The leaders of those factions exchanged uneasy glances, sensing something was amiss.
Xiao Zhan: "Although Wu Tan City is close to the Magical Beast Mountain Range and has a large population, we in the Xiao Family feel that Wu Tan City is too small. There can only be one voice in the city. What do you all think?"
The leaders of the various factions weren't stupid; they instantly understood Xiao Zhan's meaning. "The Xiao Family wants to unify Wu Tan City!"
In fact, the Xiao Family had long wanted to unify Wu Tan City; it was impossible to rely on the Marketplace to grow the family's strength indefinitely.
Then we can only approach it from other angles. Unifying Wu Tan City would be very beneficial for the Xiao Family's future development.
Since the top two experts in the family were present, the Xiao Family decided to handle the matter directly.
After Xiao Zhan finished speaking, the leaders of those forces looked at each other, but no one intended to speak. Although the Xiao Family had Dou Wang, the long-standing stability of Wu Tan City still gave them the illusion that this matter was worth discussing.
Xue Tian!
A calm voice rang out; it was Xiao Ming speaking.
When Xue Tian's name was called, he nodded and stood up, his overwhelming aura pressing down on the leaders of those forces.
"This... Fighting... King... Powerful!" Those who were oppressed by the aura felt as if a mountain was pressing down on their bodies, and their faces turned red from the pressure.
To be able to intimidate them to this extent simply by virtue of one's aura, one must definitely be Dou Wang!
"That's enough, Xue Tian." With Xiao Ming's command, Xue Tian withdrew his imposing aura.
Without the oppressive atmosphere of the Xue Tian weather, those people felt weak all over and gasped for breath.
"Let me introduce you. This is Xue Tian, a powerful Dou Wang Battle King) and Guest Elder of the Xiao Family. He will be residing at the Xiao Family from now on."
Xiao Ming's voice was very calm, yet it made everyone's hearts skip a beat. Where did Xiao Ming find such a powerful expert?
The Xiao Family Members was no exception, because Xiao Ming had not previously mentioned that he would be staying at the Xiao Family's residence during the Xue Tian.
The Xiao Family members showed joy on their faces, while the leaders of those forces exchanged bitter glances before speaking one after another.
"From now on, the Xiao Family will be the head of the Dali Weapon Merchant Guild!"
"The Medicine Association is willing to acknowledge the Xiao Family as the masters of Wu Tan City."
"..."
"The Jialie Family..."
"The Aoba Family..."
"..."
Looking at Xue Tian, who was completely subservient to Xiao Ming, Ya Fei swallowed hard. Even though Xiao Ming was Grade Six Alchemist, it was extremely difficult for a Dou Wang expert to be so respectful to him, and even willing to stay in the Xiao Family to help him guard the clan.
Ya Fei was extremely curious about what kind of magical methods Xiao Ming possessed to accomplish such a thing.
After those powerful figures finished speaking, Xiao Ming spoke again, "The Aoba Family Jia Lie Family have ten days to leave Wu Tan City, or they will face the consequences!"
"Why is that!" ×2
Upon hearing this, Jialie Bi, the head of the Jialie Family, and Oba Pa, the Clan Leader the Aoba clan, frowned and shouted.
They couldn't understand why Xiao Ming would expel their family when they had already pledged allegiance.
Especially the Oba Pa family. The Jialie Family had a lot of trouble with the Xiao Family because of the Marketplace business and was expelled. But the Aoba Family hadn't done anything wrong!
"Heh, because I've read the novel," Xiao Ming thought to himself.
After Xiao Yan caused a ruckus at the Misty Cloud Sect, the Aoba Family Jia Lie Family joined forces, intending to destroy the Xiao Family. He still felt it was best not to keep such people under his nose.
These were things he couldn't tell anyone else, so Xiao Ming simply said in a calm tone, "There's no reason, you must leave within ten days."
"But..."
Jialie Bi wanted to say more, but even if they were to leave, they should be given more time; ten days was far too short!
