Somewhere in the Ancient Wasteland, Xiao Xun'er looked at the two men standing before her, maintaining a polite smile. "Gentlemen, please stop following me."
One of them, a young man with an afro, grinned. "That won't do, Sister-in-law. This is the Ten Thousand Treasures Emperor Trove! Even if I have to give up every opportunity here, I'll make sure you stay safe."
The other young man, with fiery red hair, immediately took offense. "Lei Che, can't you say anything decent? What makes you worthy of calling the Ancient Clan's young lady Sister-in-law? That's what I should be calling her! Sister-in-law, just let me stay by your side. Don't worry—if anything happens, I'll be the first one up. You can take whatever opportunities you find!"
Lei Che's thick brows shot up. "Huo Ran, stop spouting nonsense! The one who went to the Ancient Clan to propose last time was my Thunder Clan's Clan Leader, my eldest brother Lei Dong! What does that have to do with you?"
Huo Ran glared back. "What? A proposal? Did the Ancient Clan agree? Did Senior Gu Yuan, the Ancient Clan's patriarch, nod his head? You shamelessly keep calling her Sister-in-law, but do you see the Ancient Clan's young lady paying any attention to you?"
Lei Che said, "That's still better than you! Your elder brother Huo Xuan got beaten up by Xiao Qian Di on his way to the Ancient Clan last time!"
Huo Ran snapped, "What do you mean, beaten up? He just lost half a move because he wasn't paying attention! Did your elder brother Lei Dong beat Xiao Qian Di last time?"
Lei Che retorted, "Xiao Qian Di was only relying on the Azure Dragon Divine Wood! If he hadn't used Heaven and Earth Oddities, my elder brother would have beaten him
