Mystic Heart Prefecture, Deer Cry Mountain, Xiao Family.
The weather today was not good, and a frigid gale howled through the air.
It made the entire great hall seem somewhat lonely and desolate.
Inside the great hall, quite a few cultivators had gathered together, and at their head was a middle-aged cultivator.
This cultivator was named Xiao Shaoyuan, and he was also the current head of the Xiao Family.
He looked at the assembled clan elders before him, all of them shaking their heads, and his eyes were filled with disappointment. In the end, he looked toward the previous family head seated to the side, Xiao Yuanhong.
"Uncle Yuanhong, I heard Shaoen is with the Ye Family. If the Ye Family can say a word today, we'll be able to resolve this predicament." Xiao Shaoyuan knew that bringing this up now was somewhat inappropriate.
But at this point, he had no other choice. Ever since the Xiao Family had come from Celestial Pivot Prefecture to Mystic Heart Prefecture over a hundred and fifty years ago, their fortunes had seemed exhausted, and their circumstances had declined day by day.
Originally, they had one Golden Core, seven or eight Purple Palace cultivators, and several Golden Core seeds. Looking at this great hall now, however, there were only three Purple Palace cultivators left, along with a dozen or so Foundation Establishment cultivators.
As for the Golden Core Grand Elder Xiao Yuanquan and many Xiao Family clansmen, after entering a secret realm in Mystic Heart Prefecture, they had never come out again.
Moreover, among the remaining Purple Palace cultivators, Xiao Yuanhong's lifespan was nearing its end.
And no one knew who had spread the news in recent years that the Xiao Family had offended the Ye Family, making the Xiao Family's days even harder.
