A Virtuous Son-In-Law Of Striking Appearance
Seeing Ye Xuan give him a gift as soon as they met, the young man was clearly a little surprised. However, after being stunned for a moment, he still raised his hand and accepted the gift.
Moreover, he didn't seem to care about Ye Xuan's congratulatory words. He subconsciously opened the small space box and let out a cry of surprise. His entire face was illuminated with dreamy nine colors. He grinned at Ye Xuan and said, "Brother-in-law, thank you …"
With that, the young man turned and ran to the group of people waiting in front of the Xuanyuan Family's gate. He handed the small space box in his hand to an old man in the middle as if he was presenting a treasure. His face was full of excitement and emotion. "Father, look! My brother-in-law gave me ten ninth-level nine nine-colored crystals!"
The group of people all looked at the small space box in his hand. The dreamy nine colors were reflected on everyone's faces. Even the old man suspected to be the head of the Xuanyuan Family had a look of shock in his eyes.
He was obviously shocked by Ye Xuan's generosity.
Following that, everyone became excited.
They had already sent someone to deliver the betrothal gifts just now, and they were also very valuable. Now, the young man had given ten ninth-level nine nine-colored crystals to curry favor with his brother-in-law. It seemed that Prince Xuan really cared a lot about Zi Ying.
Thinking of this, the group of Xuanyuan Family members all smiled from the bottom of their hearts. Although these ten ninth-level nine nine-colored crystals were put away by the old family head on the spot, and they probably wouldn't get a share of it, as long as Prince Xuan became a family member, everyone present would benefit greatly in the future. They couldn't refuse it even if they didn't want to!
At this moment, after putting away the small space box in the young man's hand, the old man had already led the group of Xuanyuan Family members to welcome Ye Xuan. With a face full of smiles, he looked at Ye Xuan and said, "Aiyaya, my virtuous son-in-law is indeed a man of striking appearance. However, your etiquette is a little too thorough. This makes us seem distant. We're all family, why do you have to be like this …"
Brother-in-law?
Virtuous son-in-law?
They were all family?
As these words entered his ears one after another, Naples was grinning from ear to ear. The wretched Mosquito Slayer was more or less the same. Only the two people involved, Ye Xuan and Purplish Warbler, had their mouths wide open, as if they had agreed beforehand. Their faces were full of shock.
It was as if lightning and thunder were rumbling in his mind. In an instant, his entire brain was numb from the explosion!
…
At the same time, in the Imperial Capital, the Immortal Star, the Federation's Overwatch Council!
After some investigation, the Overwatch Council's task force had a rough idea of the source of Prince Xuan's 10 billion Federation Contribution Points. An investigation report was delivered to the desk of Long Huai, the head of the Overwatch Council.
Although Long Huai was the Great Imperial Uncle, on the surface, he looked younger than the Second Imperial Uncle, Long Tianba. He looked to be in his early forties, with a pale face and no beard. However, the light in his eyes occasionally flickered. His entire person imperceptibly exuded the aura of someone who had been in a high position for a long time. It was very frightening.
On Ye Xuan's side, the investigation of the 10 billion Contribution Points deduction was very fast because he only needed to recall what he had done.
However, on the Overwatch Council's side, it was not so simple.
There were some things that even Naples did not know. He was only a three-star general in the Immortal Army of the Immortal Dynasty. This time, the 10 billion Contribution Points deduction from Ye Xuan were related to the interests of the entire Wan Luo Federation.
Thus, after the investigation began, there were many aspects that needed to be taken into consideration.
The entire Wan Luo Federation was in the First Universe. Even if it was only in the Demon Territory, how could it be as simple as a few Demon spies who had been bribed?
In reality, for so many years, the Wan Luo Federation had used similar methods to nibble away and even set up a few Great Void Killing Formations in the First Universe. In the future, when they fought a decisive battle with the overlord of the First Universe, the Tianji Clan, these Great Void Killing Formations would have unimaginably terrifying effects.
It could be said that the foundation of any one of these Great Void Killing Formations was incomparably important. It was also absolutely enough to cause the Sky Ranking Federation interstellar mercenaries to have their Contribution Points deducted.
Thus, this time, when the Federation's Overwatch Council launched an investigation into the 10 billion Contribution Points deduction from Ye Xuan, they took into consideration many aspects. This took a certain amount of time, and only now did they have a result.
As for the investigation report that was placed on the desk of Long Huai, the Overwatch Council's Director, right now in his hands, it showed the following information:
All of the Great Void Killing Formations' foundations were untouched.
Some of the other arrangements and secrets were also completely normal, or there were still old connections.
Only the First High Priest of the Demon Race's Imperial City, Wen Xing, had been confirmed to have died not long ago, and the cause of death was unknown.
As the First High Priest of the Demon Race's Imperial City, Wen Xing's value was extremely high. His death was definitely not a small loss to the Wan Luo Federation. It was indeed enough to deduct 10 billion Contribution Points, or even more.
Originally, on the Demon Emperor Planet, Chanas had already reported the details of Wen Xing's death to the Demon Emperor, but the latter had blocked the news. After all, the High Priest of the Imperial City had died so sullenly. For the Demon Royal Family, this was also a matter of loss of face.
Thus, regarding the true cause of Wen Xing's death, the Federation's Overwatch Council did not receive any real information at all.
"So, he killed Wen Xing, and from the information that was sent back, no one knew how High Priest Wen Xing died. Could it be that he was assassinated?"
Putting down the investigation report in his hand, Long Huai gradually furrowed his brows as he muttered to himself, "This child has only gone through one ultimate trial, and he has already been reborn like this? From the weak and easily bullied in the past, he has grown to the point where he is now in the Three Great Universes, and even his cultivation realm has become mysterious. He can even kill Wen Xing?
"What is even more frightening is his scheming!
"Whether it is taking advantage of the situation to kill Bai Zhengjun, Zhao Long, and their henchmen on the Tianhe Planet, or deliberately leaving behind the impression of a benevolent heart on the Tianchen Planet, all of this shows that this child is no longer the old Long Xuan of the past.
"If Second Brother had not gone with the fleet and confirmed his identity, I would have almost suspected whether he was the real Prince Xuan. How can a person change so much in such a short time?
"Unfortunately, Long Xuan, no matter how powerful you are now, you still left behind some loopholes. Wen Xing's death is enough for the Federation's Overwatch Council to investigate you. Besides, a human being who has made such a name for himself among the Demon Race, and even reached the level of the Black Mosquito Tribe's Holy Son. Even if there is nothing fishy about it, just this point alone is enough for me to make some news."
