"Thank you, Miss!" Xiao Huaiyu walked over and bowed deeply to Xie Jinglan and the other three. "Thank you very much for saving me."

"You're welcome, Mr. Xiao!"

Xie Jinglan and Zhu Yichen bowed and returned his greeting.

"We came to your place without permission and caused you trouble!" Zhu Yichen said apologetically.

"No trouble, no trouble. I'd love to hear that. Fortunately, you guys are here, otherwise..." Xiao Huaiyu said as he turned his head to look at the people behind him, his eyes revealing deep worry and fear.

"I'm afraid our Xiao family will cease to exist from now on!"

"The master is coming!" someone shouted from behind.

The Xiao family made a path and stood on both sides of the road. They saw a group of people hurrying towards them from the other end of the street. Two of them were carrying a sedan chair with a person sitting on it.

"Cough cough cough..."

A cough was heard.

"Father..." Xiao Huaiyu's face changed and he quickly walked towards him.

Xie Jinglan turned around and saw that Master Yufeng had been burned to death and the fire was out.

"Let's go back!"

There are too many capable people in the Zhan family, and there may be even more powerful ones hiding. If you want to deal with the Zhan family, you can't take it lightly and you have to plan carefully when you go back.

Xie Jinglan called Fusheng again and prepared to go back to Xu's house first.

The Xu family is now implicated by them, so they have to protect them. After things here are resolved, they must also help them find a place to live before they leave.

As for the Xiao family, she wanted to wait until tomorrow to visit them.

The four of them had just walked into an alley when they heard someone behind them calling out, "Wait a moment, benefactor."

They turned around and saw Xiao Huaiyu running back. "My benefactors, my father would like to invite you to his house for a chat to show his hospitality."

Xie Jinglan glanced at Beitang Yuan and Zhu Yichen. Since they came first, the Xiao family must be willing to make friends with them.

Both men nodded slightly.

"Sorry to bother you so much!"

"Don't bother me. Huaiyu would be grateful for this. Please come this way, my benefactors." Xiao Huaiyu made a gesture of invitation with his hand and walked to the front to lead the way.

After leaving the alley, I saw that the master of the Xiao family had already gone back.

Xiao Huaiyu took them to the Xiao family and told them some grievances with the Zhan family on the way.

It was similar to what Xu Zhen said. The Zhan family coveted the Xiao family's territory and found various reasons to provoke them. They had many fights in a year. Every time, many people from the Xiao family died, and then the family had to admit defeat, cede land and pay compensation. In this way, the Xiao family's territory was occupied by the Zhan family bit by bit.

"Mincheng originally had only three major families: the Xiao, Cao, and Cheng families. The Zhan family was originally a small family, but has only grown powerful in the past few decades. They've fought with the Cao and Cheng families many times in the past, but they've always suffered losses. Zhan Zhang's eldest brother was beaten to death by a member of the Cheng family, and he never dared to provoke the Cheng family again..."

They came to the Xiao Mansion while talking.

"Please come in, benefactor." Xiao Huaiyu invited them into the mansion.

Compared with the grandeur of the Zhan Mansion, which is comparable to an imperial palace, the Xiao family is much more low-key.

"Mr. Xiao, there's no need to be so polite. My name is Xie Jinglan. They are both my brothers. You can just call me by my name from now on!" said Xie Jinglan.

As for Beitang Yuan and Zhu Yichen, they are involved with Yuyong Kingdom and Xuanji Sect, so let's not reveal their identities for now to avoid causing a bigger impact.

Just go to war with the Zhan family in the name of her Xie family.

"Miss Xie, it turns out that your father is Prince Xie of Yuyong Kingdom. I never thought that my Xiao family would be saved by his descendants one day." Xiao Huaiyu mentioned Xie Feng with admiration in his eyes.

"Oh? You have also heard of my father?" My father's strength is only in the early stage of Jindan, not very strong. He only shows up at the Linggun Mountain Competition every two years. There are actually people in Mincheng who know his name?

“Just over two years ago, the Snake Demons broke through the great formation of the Myriad Beasts Mountain Range, and the emperors of all nations sent troops to suppress them.

Faced with the onrushing monsters, the generals of all nations were driven back one after another. Only Prince Xie held his ground, repelling the monsters' repeated and fierce attacks. Although in the end... his battle made him famous. Xiao Huaiyu expressed some regret over Xie Feng's death in battle.

"Do you all think that it was the Snake Demon Clan who broke the big formation?" Xie Jinglan felt that things were not that simple.

"I heard everyone say that." Xiao Huaiyu didn't hear the hidden meaning in her words and led them into the front lobby.

"Father, I have invited Mr. Xie and Miss Xie!"

"You guys cough cough cough..."

Just as the master of the Xiao family was about to speak, he started coughing again, and his face turned red.

"Father..." Xiao Huaiyu's face changed and he hurriedly patted his back.

"Let me take a look." Xie Jinglan walked over quickly and took the pulse of the master of the Xiao family.

His face changed slightly. Mr. Xiao had been hit in the chest before, suffering extremely serious injuries. The damage to his lungs had never been healed, which left a root of the disease.

She took out a third-grade pill and said, "Feed it to him."

This pill contains her blood as a medicine, which can help him stabilize his condition as soon as possible.

"A third-grade elixir!" Xiao Huaiyu was very surprised when he looked at the elixir. Then he took the elixir with joy and fed it to Master Xiao.

Last time, he spent a lot of money to buy a third-grade pill. After his father took it, his condition improved a lot, but the pill was too hard to find, and he couldn't buy it even if he had money.

Master Xiao swallowed the pill, and the moment the pill slid into his throat, it was like a stream of clear spring flowing into his body. A cool feeling quickly spread throughout his chest, as if his entire chest had been washed, and his lungs felt less uncomfortable.

This kind of freshness and comfort had been so long since he had felt it, so long that he almost forgot that his body could ever feel so relaxed.

"Miss Xie is truly a deity!" Master Xiao stood up and bowed to the three of them. "You three benefactors are the nobles of my Xiao family!"

"You're welcome, Mr. Xiao." Zhu Yichen helped him up.

"Father, please sit down." Xiao Huaiyu helped Mr. Xiao sit down.

Beitang Yuan knew that the elixir that Xie Jinglan gave to Mr. Xiao was made with her blood, and he shook her hand vigorously with some disapproval.

"Nothing." Xie Jinglan shook her head slightly at him.

"Three years ago, our Xiao family had a big battle with the Zhan family. My eldest brother's meridians were broken, and my father was hit in the chest by Zhan Zhang. He was seriously injured at the time. Since then, my father and eldest brother have been suffering from illness and their health has been getting worse." Xiao Huaiyu told them about the injuries of Mr. Xiao and Young Master Xiao.

"Being able to take Zhan Zhang's palm, does that mean Master Xiao is also in the late Jindan stage?" Xie Jinglan asked in surprise.

"Yes, we never dared to leak the news that my father was injured and in poor health. Otherwise, the Zhan family would have killed our Xiao family long ago." Xiao Huaiyu smiled bitterly.

Hearing this, Xie Jinglan immediately said: "I can heal Mr. Xiao's old injury. When he recovers, we will go together to destroy the Zhan family."
