Fantasy: The Clan Chief Lies Down, His House Is Full of Emperors

More than half a year later, Xu Luo returned with Xiao Hui.

Back in his familiar home, Xiao Hui was overjoyed. He darted to Xu Qingzhou's courtyard in a few steps and began looking for people one by one: Master Xu Ying, Little Master Xu Yundao, Uncle and Aunt.

After Xiao Hui greeted them and reminisced, Xu Luo entered the courtyard.

"How did it go? Was it all right?" Xu Qingzhou asked.

Xu Luo nodded and said, "The Suanni's descendants in the northern region of Cangzhou are the Heavenly Fire Burning Flame Beasts. The clan's ancestor was very excited when he saw Little Gray, and even wanted it to unify the northern region's demon race and become a generation of demon emperor."

Xu Qingzhou turned her head and glanced at Xiao Hui. At this moment, it was like a dog that hadn't seen its owner for several days, jumping up and down and running around energetically.

Is a little gray creature like this going to become the Demon Emperor?

I'm afraid the entire demon race will be led astray.

Xu Luo laughed and said, "I also told them that Little Gray is not suitable, but they said that Little Gray is still in its infancy according to the lifespan of an ancient mythical beast like the Suanni. It will be fine when it grows up a bit."

“That makes sense. Once Little Gray grows up a bit, our Xu family will be fully grown. If Little Gray is willing, we can give it the title of Demon Emperor,” Xu Qingzhou said, like a parent who dotes on their child.

At that time, Xiao Hui will have two identities: on the surface, she will be the Demon Emperor of the Demon Clan, but in secret, she will be the Xu family's nanny.

Xu Luo nodded in agreement.

"In short, the Heavenly Fire Burning Beast clan has made it clear that they are willing to help our Xu family at any time."

This is definitely a loyal and powerful ally, after all, among the descendants of ancient mythical beasts, none are weak.

Xu Qingzhou then asked, "How does their clan compare in terms of overall strength within the entire demon race?"

Xu Luo hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

"Among the ancient mythical beasts, the Suanni is generally mild-mannered, unlike other mythical beasts that are arrogant and domineering. Therefore, the Heavenly Fire Flame Beast is also easy-going and rarely participates in fierce battles. In the entire demon race, their overall strength is above average, far inferior to races like the Golden Winged Tiger and the Mighty Bull Demon."

Xu Qingzhou nodded to himself. Regardless of their strength, anyone who stood up to support the Xu family at this time was a good ally.

At this moment, Xu Muge and his group also arrived.

"Brother Luo, hurry! A fight has broken out at the martial arts arena in the west of the city. Let's go and see what's going on."

Xu Luo asked, "Who's with whom?"

Xu Muge pointed to the list of geniuses above.

"The Prodigy Ranking has just been updated, and some people are not convinced. They happen to be in Duanshan City, so a fight broke out."

Xu Luo looked up.

At this time, the list of prodigies had been updated to number twenty-two, and the twenty-third and twenty-second places were occupied by a demonic cultivator and a Buddhist cultivator, respectively.

“Jubaolou just recently sent back a batch of stone eggs from the Starry Sea, we can go and pick out a few,” Xu Chen said.

Xu Qingzhou originally didn't want to go, but upon hearing this, he stood up as well.

The previous time, when the stone eggs were also shipped back from the Starry Sea, Xu Chen used his Qi Observation Technique to select two Azure Thunder Rocs, and Xu Ying even selected a powerful and rare Heavenly Xuan Turtle.

I absolutely cannot miss this opportunity.

So Xu Qingzhou led the others away from the Xu family and arrived at the martial arts training ground in the west of the city.

There is a large open space here, with several arenas filled with array formations, built by the city lord's mansion.

Here, once you step into the ring, you can fight however you want, and nobody will care if you die.

When Xu Qingzhou and his group arrived, the twenty-third and twenty-second ranked students on the Heavenly Pride Ranking were already fighting on one of the arenas. The demonic energy and Buddhist light echoed each other, making it look extremely strange.

A large number of cultivators, including many prodigies, had gathered around the arena.

As the focus of Cangzhou today, the arrival of the Xu family naturally sparked a heated discussion.

"Look, the prodigy of the Xu family has arrived as well."

"How enviable."

"That being said, although the Xu family has many outstanding talents, none of them have yet made it into the top thirty."

"The name of Xu Muge, the disciple of Lord Shen, has not appeared yet. He should be the strongest prodigy in the Xu family at present, but we don't know where he will be ranked."

"Tsk tsk, he might not even have a chance to make it onto the list of geniuses before he's already gone. I've heard that the Xu family is currently being suppressed by multiple forces."

"Yeah, it's because they have a celestial body and they're holding onto it tightly."

The chatter ceased instantly as Xu Qingzhou and his group approached.

The Xu family is indeed being suppressed by several powerful figures. Xu Muge and Xu Ying can't even leave the house easily. But no matter what, there are still three masters of the Divine Palace in the family. They wouldn't dare to gossip about them to their faces.

The two on the arena, one a demonic cultivator and the other a Buddhist cultivator, were both at the ninth level of the Heavenly Palace Realm, but the combat power they unleashed had reached the Dharma Aspect Realm. Ordinary cultivators at the first or second level of the Dharma Aspect Realm were no match for them.

Xu Luo also spotted the female demonic cultivator in green robes who had followed them and questioned Xu Qiufeng in the Tianyan Sect ruins that day.

I overheard other people talking and learned that she was Mo Weishuang, who ranked thirty-sixth on the list of geniuses.

Xu Luo transmitted his voice and said, "I went back to our ancestral home and checked. Xu Qiufeng is indeed a member of the Xu family, but he was abducted when he was ten years old and we haven't heard from him since. Where did you meet him?"

Mo Weishuang's expression changed slightly. After thinking for a moment, she replied, "After he was abducted, he was handed over to a demonic cultivator, while I was sold. We were both used by the demonic cultivator to test pills. He helped me many times."

"Later, this demonic cultivator was killed by his enemy. I was taken away because I had some talent, but he was left there and his whereabouts are unknown. A few years ago, I left the demonic sect to go back and look for him, but I still haven't found him."

Xu Luo sighed inwardly, thinking how unfortunate his cousin's life had been.

Being kidnapped was bad enough, but to be handed over to a demonic cultivator was even worse. It was already very torturous and painful for an ordinary alchemist to test their pills, but it must have been even more painful for a demonic cultivator to test his demonic pills.

Xu Luo replied, "His parents are still waiting for him at home. If you find him later, remember to tell them."

“I will. If he returns to the Xu family, I hope you will tell him that someone named Shuang’er has been looking for him,” Mo Weishuang replied.

The two, who were still young at the time, were used by the demonic cultivators to test pills, so they could be said to be in the same boat.

Despite being just children themselves, and being mired in their own misery and tormented every day, Xu Qiufeng repeatedly helped Mo Weishuang and encouraged her during her time of pain.

This not only gave Mo Weishuang hope to live, but also left an indelible impression on her heart.

Over the years, she had secretly vowed to find that boy.

If he dies, I will avenge him no matter who his enemy is.

If something untoward happens to you, you must insist on returning to the place where you first met and die there.

When Xu Luo told Xu Qingzhou about the conversation they had just had, Xu Qingzhou couldn't help but sigh.

"The autumn wind is bleak and the weather is cold; the grass and trees wither and the dew turns to frost."

At the same time, I also had a bold guess in my mind.

"This kid had such a miserable childhood, could he be the sixth chosen one of the Xu family?"
