The Four Great Elders Whose Faces Nearly Split from Smiling
"Are you the Hall Master of the Free and Unfettered Hall?" asked the Serpent Clan Grand Elder in the center, her voice hoarse and grating. "The Old Serpent Clan Grand Elder, and they are the Second, Third, and Fourth Elder."
The Serpent Clan Grand Elder pointed to the three people beside him and introduced them one by one. Then he looked at Medusa next to Xiao Tian and sighed inwardly: his king's ally had already turned against him.
"Junior Xiao Tian greets the four Elder." Xiao Tian smiled faintly and politely bowed to the four elders, "May I ask what business the four Elder have with me?"
"This time, we're discussing the pregnancy of our clan Clan Leader Medusa and the relocation of our clan." The Serpent Clan's Grand Elder's voice suddenly turned stern, four cold, sharp gazes shot out, and a powerful aura erupted.
Sensing their eldest sister's imposing aura, the Third Elder and Fourth Elder's expressions suddenly turned horrified: Didn't we say before that Xiao Tian is Dou Zun, and we can't afford to offend him?
The two Elder kept giving the Grand Elder meaningful glances.
Seemingly remembering something, the Grand Elder revealed a somewhat unpleasant smile, "We've come to see you this time to thank Hall Master Xiao for using Baptism Secret Technique to baptize the Clan Leader's unborn child."
Medusa was only using medium-grade nourishment, while Xiao Tian took out Rank 8 Pills. The Four Great Elders knew that Xiao Tian was Alchemist, and when they saw him take out Rank 8 Pills, they assumed that he was Rank 8 Alchemist.
Rank 8 Alchemist is someone even Dou Zun would treat with utmost respect.
"My child, of course I will nourish him with the best things." Xiao Tian said firmly. He never skimped on anything for his own people.
Medusa, standing beside him, glanced at Xiao Tian with loving eyes, a perfect smile curving her lips.
Upon hearing this, the Grand Elder's face lit up with joy, and he became even more satisfied with Xiao Tian, who was a super benefactor to his Serpent Clan.
If they weren't afraid of upsetting Medusa, they would have gathered all the Serpent Clan women and let Xiao Tian Xiao Tian them, so that they could bind him even more firmly.
"The Clan Leader also told us about the Serpent Clan's relocation, and we agree to the relocation. We'll be leaving the rest of the work to Hall Master Xiao."
Although the Grand Elder of the Serpent Clan had never seen the Free and Unfettered World, he knew from Medusa's description that it was a hundred times better than where he was now.
The six then began discussing various relocation matters.
Gu World.
The Gu Clan Council Hall.
At this moment, the high-ranking members of the Gu Clan were discussing the matter of the key belonging to the Xiao Family.
Just then, the hall door was flung open, and a figure with an icy expression and dazzling golden flames flowing around him like liquid walked in.
It was Xun'er, who had been gone for a long time. She came before all the Elder and her Clan Leader father, and said coldly, "Xiao Tian Gege is already Dou Zun. If you have any ideas, I won't stop you, but..."
Xun'er didn't finish her sentence. She glanced calmly at everyone present, then turned and left.
The current Xun'er has been manipulated by Ya Fei and Xiao Tian, and is no longer the thoughtful person she once was. Instead, she is someone whose eyes and heart are completely devoted to Xiao Tian.
Watching Xun'er leave, the people from the Gu Clan present were still processing this news: a twenty-one-year-old Dou Zun, without the Dou Di Bloodline, how terrifying was that? Even Gu Yuan couldn't do that.
Gu Yuan, however, knew more. He learned from Xun'er that Xiao Tian had another Small World, where even Dou Sheng would be suppressed or killed if he entered.
Gu Yuan is a person who prioritizes profit above all else; he would even abandon family ties for the sake of profit.
The benefits behind this news far exceed that elusive key.
After some deliberation, Gu Yuan made a final agreement. He issued a command and headed towards the place where Xun'er was cultivating in seclusion.
The father and daughter talked for a while, but the final outcome remains unknown.
All that is known is that Gu Yuan was deep in thought when he left, even with a slight smile on his face, while Xun'er's ears were red and she also had a smile on her face.
Xun'er took out the Sound Transmission Stone in her hand, wanting to send a message to Xiao Tian about the good news her father had given her today, but after several attempts, she ultimately decided not to send it, instead planning to share it with him when they met.
Meanwhile, Elder Ling, standing some distance away, also smiled. Although he hadn't heard it, he could roughly guess from Miss Xun'er's expression, and he was happy for her. Finally...
After discussing everything, the Four Great Elders smiled broadly, like old chrysanthemums, and respectfully saw Xiao Tian Medusa off.
The biggest condition for the migration was that the Serpent Clan had to join the Free and Unfettered Hall and become part of the Free and Unfettered Hall, contributing to the Free and Unfettered Hall development. During this time, Xiao Tian also made sure to promise them the most coveted reward.
By contributing to the Free and Unfettered Hall and earning enough Contribution Points, one could exchange them for a Breakthrough Pill to break through to the Dou Zong Sect Breaking Pill. Faced with this tempting offer, the Four Great Elders happily agreed to the request.
"Big sister, you almost scared me to death just now! If he got angry, all of us combined would have been dead countless times over from a single slap."
After Xiao Tian left, the Fourth Elder looked frightened and said to the Grand Elder.
"I... I was just used to it, and for a moment I forgot about his strength."
Three Elder:... If you want to die, don't drag us down with you.
"It is truly a blessing from heaven for our Serpent Clan. From now on, we must obey the Clan Leader's every command." The Grand Elder said solemnly to the other three.
All three nodded in agreement.
"I thought your Elder were going to make me undergo some kind of Clan Rules, like Myriad Snakes Devouring Body. What a pity."
Xiao Tian smacked his lips and smiled at Medusa.
"I think you're looking for an excuse to teach them a lesson, aren't you? But these four old fogies really need a good talking to; they've caused me no shortage of trouble in the past."
Medusa recalled how the Four Great Elders used to rely on their seniority to obstruct her, "I've never seen them act so ingratiatingly before."
Medusa recalled the appearance of the Four Great Elders today, and a mocking smile appeared on her lips.
"That's right. Don't you know who your husband is? From now on, they'll definitely obey your commands obediently, and you'll be able to manage the Serpent Clan much better."
"You're just trying to make yourself look good." Medusa glanced at Xiao Tianyi with a seductive look, but then quietly took his arm and gently rested her head on Xiao Tian hand.
"However, let's leave the Serpent Clan race to the Free and Unfettered Hall for governance. I don't want to give them any special treatment; that would have a negative impact."
"My dream was to lead the Serpent Clan to greater glory and out of this desert, and now that's been achieved. As long as the Serpent Clan don't perish, that's enough. In any case, the Serpent Clan have already reached an unprecedented peak."
Medusa then shared her thoughts: since the Serpent Clan had integrated into the Free and Unfettered Hall, they should be fully integrated; treating them as special cases would not be good for anyone.
A single power cannot have multiple voices. This may not be a problem now, but such fragmentation will sow the seeds of future problems.
Xiao Tian glanced at Medusa, but didn't say anything more. He simply pulled her into a tight embrace and stroked her soft hair.
She knew that Medusa was making this concession for her and her sisters, since even the Mittel Family of Ya Fei didn't have any special privileges, and she couldn't set a precedent for it.
He has so many comrades-in-arms, some of whom have families behind them. If he starts with one, he will have to make the same arrangements for the others. That will make things difficult for Xiao Tian.
"I'm going to explore the Snake-People Holy City with my sisters, do you want to come along?" Medusa stretched out her hand and looked at Xiao Tian tenderly. If it weren't for the fact that it was daytime and her sisters were waiting for her, she would have already pulled Xiao Tian to let him feel her passionate gratitude.
