A nighttime talk
Pei En laughed and said, "Young Master hasn't been home for a long time, so he probably doesn't know that among the three major families in Wu Tan City, our Xiao Clan is practically the only one that matters. It turns out that the Jia Lie Family is struggling financially and wants to sell some of their market buildings to our Xiao Clan at a low price, so the patriarch went to the Jia Lie Family to take a look."
Xiao Yu looked at Pei En with some surprise, and couldn't help but laugh, "The Jia Lie Family's market can also be poorly managed? When I left the family, there were three powerful families standing side by side!"
Pei En explained, "Young Master, you don't know yet, but the Xiao Clan's status is not Xiao Clan it used to be. Now, the Xiao Clan has several Dou Ling experts, three elders have even reached the Peak Dou Ling, and as for the patriarch, he has even stepped into the Dou Wang expert realm. Looking at the entire Wu Tan City, no family is stronger than us!"
Hearing Pei En's words, Xiao Yu finally understood. It seemed that the family's bloodline was at work. The family must have used up a lot of medicinal herbs during this period, otherwise, his father would not have entered the Dou Wang realm so quickly!
Xiao Yu smiled and said, "Alright, since Father has gone to the Jia Lie Family, I'll go back to the family first. Uncle Pei En, you go ahead and get busy!"
"Alright, then take care, young master!" Pei En replied with a smile, then glanced at Cai Lin, who was standing next to Xiao Yu with a light Cai Lin on her face, and then at Little Xiao Nian, who was being held in Xiao Yu's arms. Although he had some doubts, he did not press the matter for further questions.
After leaving the market with Cai Lin and Little Xiao Nian, Xiao Yu headed straight towards the family compound. When the three arrived at the compound, looking at the tall and majestic Xiao Clan mansion with several members of the Xiao Clan family standing at the gate, Xiao Yu felt a surge of warmth in his heart.
Xiao Yu put Little Xiao Nian Little Xiao Nian and took her hand as they walked towards the Xiao Clan.
"Stop!"
"This is the Xiao Clan. Outsiders are not allowed to enter at will. Please state your names!" A clansman stopped Xiao Yu and his two companions.
When the Xiao Clan guards saw the beautiful and alluring woman behind Xiao Yu, whose face was covered by a light veil but whose beauty could not be concealed, they were still somewhat surprised. It was surprising that such a beautiful woman had appeared in Wu Tan City again. Why "again"? Naturally, it was because two years ago, Wu Tan City had a concubine named Ya Fei, and the Xiao Clan also had a Xun'er!
Xiao Yu chuckled and looked at his clansmen, scrutinizing them before saying, "How come you don't recognize me after only two years?"
Upon hearing Xiao Yu's words, a clansman standing behind him suddenly changed his expression, as if he had remembered something. He pointed at Xiao Yu and stammered, "Young Master Xiao... Young Master Xiao Yu?"
Upon hearing the address, the others were slightly startled. Looking at Xiao Yu again, they felt increasingly familiar with him and happily surrounded him, saying, "Young Master Xiao Yu, why are you back? I'll go inform the Great Elder and the others!" After saying that, they ran towards the family compound.
Xiao Yu smiled faintly, "I came back this time to visit, and also to discuss some matters with the clan leader and the Great Elder!"
The tribesmen nodded in agreement with Xiao Yu Xiao Yu's words and led him and his companions into the tribe. Along the way, Xiao Yu Xiao Yu many familiar faces, who greeted him with smiles.
Soon, Xiao Yu saw the Great Elder, Second Elder, and Third Elder rushing over. Having not seen them for over two years, these three elders were quite different from before. Upon seeing Xiao Yu, they warmly greeted him, saying, "Young Master, so it's you who's back? First Young Master, haven't the Second and Third Young Masters returned?"
The questioner was the Great Elder, while the other two elders and the clansmen who had come with him all looked at Xiao Yu. Ever since they learned that Xiao Yu and Xiao Yan had personally overthrown the Misty Cloud Sect, which was famous Jia Ma Empire, everyone in the clan had become extremely respectful of Xiao Yu and Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yu chuckled and said, "Big brother, second brother and third brother are still in the Black Corner Region. I'm the only one who came back this time because I have some things to take care of."
Everyone nodded in understanding, then turned their gaze to Xiao Yu's left hand holding Little Xiao Nian and Cai Lin beside him. The Great Elder chuckled and said, "Young Master, are these your wife and child?"
Xiao Yu pulled Little Xiao Nian aside and read aloud, "This is the Great Elder Grandpa, that's the Second Elder Grandpa, and the last one who's a bit chubby is the Third Elder Grandpa!"
After Little Xiao Nian obediently called out each name, Xiao Yu said, "This is my child, Xiao Nian."
Upon hearing Little Xiao Nian's call, the three elders' faces immediately lit up with smiles as bright as blooming chrysanthemums, and they repeatedly responded, "Oh, oh, oh, so good!"
The Third Elder, standing to the side, looked at Cai Lin and asked, "And who is this?"
"Oh, this is my friend, Cai Lin." Xiao Yu didn't reveal Cai Lin's other identity, after all, Medusa's name was extremely famous throughout the entire Jia Ma Empire, beautiful and ruthless!
After chatting with the three elders in the living room for a while, a hearty laugh came from outside. "Hahaha, Xiao Yu, Yu'er heard you were back as soon as I left the Jia Lie Family, so I rushed back immediately! Where's the little guy? Let Grandpa see him!"
Xiao Zhan strode in from outside with his rough voice and imposing figure. When he saw Xiao Yu sitting in the living room, along with Cai Lin and Little Xiao Nian beside him, Xiao Zhan's expression froze slightly!
"Uh, who is this?" Xiao Zhan walked up to Xiao Yu and asked with a subtle wink.
Xiao Yu looked at his father and couldn't help but chuckle, "This is my friend, Cai Lin. She's the one who accompanied me back this time!"
Xiao Zhan nodded in relief and said, "Oh, I see."
Then Xiao Zhan whispered in Xiao Yu's ear, "I thought you'd brought me another daughter-in-law. You've really made your old man proud!"
Immediately ignoring Xiao Yu's somewhat speechless expression, Xiao Zhan picked up Little Xiao Nian beside him and, seeing the Little Xiao Nian's bewildered look, laughed heartily, "Xiao Zhan guy, I'm your grandpa! Come on, call me grandpa!"
Little Xiao Nian immediately looked at Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu nodded slightly and said, "Quickly call him Grandpa!"
Upon hearing Xiao Yu's words, Little Xiao Nian obediently called out, "Grandpa!"
"Yes!" Xiao Zhan responded happily.
That night, Xiao Yu returned to his original room. Xiao Zhan also arranged a room for Cai Lin, which was originally next to Xiao Yu's, but Cai Lin refused!
Xiao Yu couldn't help but glance at Cai Lin, seriously suspecting that she must have overheard something last night!
Looking at the room he had lived in for over a decade, Xiao Yu couldn't help but feel a pang of emotion. He then closed the door and headed towards his father's study.
Laughing as he walked across the gravel, Xiao Yu arrived at Xiao Zhan's study. Seeing that the light was still on in Xiao Zhan's study, Xiao Yu chuckled and walked towards the study, gently knocking twice on the door.
"Come in!" Xiao Zhan's voice came from the study.
With a creak, Xiao Yu pushed open the door and stepped into the study, smiling at Xiao Zhan, "Father knew all along that I was going to see you tonight?"
Xiao Zhan chuckled and said, "You little rascal, you've been by my side for so long, do you think I don't know what you're thinking? I knew you had something on your mind as soon as you got back, so tell me!"
