Xiao Yang also returned the greeting and introduced, "Dahai, this is the mid-stream Old Master Xiao. He's very senior, probably many generations older than you."
Xiao Dahai didn't dare to be negligent and hurriedly bowed, respectfully saying, "Greetings, Great Grandfather."
Then, he took a few more glances at Old Master Xiao, wanting to remember him in his heart. He had always maintained a great curiosity towards the mid-stream Xiao family members, as well as a sense of familiarity.
Old Master Xiao didn't put on airs. He revealed a smile and looked kindly at Xiao Dahai, softly saying, "Dahai, are you now the current head of the upper-stream Xiao family? En, very good, I'm also very happy to meet you. "
Xiao Dahai was simply overwhelmed by the favor and was very touched.
He didn't feel superior just because he was an upper-stream person. Perhaps he was once glorious, but after the first ancestor of the Xiao family went into seclusion, their Xiao family gradually declined.
Even to the point where they were now in such dire straits, they could only accept Xiao Yang's gifts and care in order to survive.
Otherwise, they would have been swallowed up by the Dongfang family, Qian family, Nangong family, and Liu family.
Therefore, he came to North Light City this time with a heart full of gratitude and was prepared to lower his status. He didn't expect Old Master Xiao to be so polite and treat him with such importance.
Xiao Dahai didn't hide his thoughts. Greatly moved, he took out the Xiao family seal and said, "This is the Xiao family seal passed down by the first ancestor of the Xiao family. With this seal, you're like the head of the family. Any member of the Xiao family must be obedient, so I implore you to take the position of head of the family."
Xiao Yang frowned and looked at Old Master Xiao, indifferently saying, "Great Grandfather, you can decide on this matter."
Lin Shiyun had a surprised expression. She didn't expect Xiao Dahai to do this at all.
She looked at him in astonishment and said, "Junior of the Xiao family, why are you doing this?"
Lin Shiyun naturally had the right to call him a junior, because he wasn't as old as Lin Shiyun.
Moreover, he had married into a Xiao family and became the great-grandmother of a Xiao family. In terms of seniority, he was several levels higher than the other party.
Xiao Dahai respectfully glanced at Lin ShiYun. At first, he didn't recognize Lin ShiYun, nor did he know who Lin ShiYun was. He only saw Lin ShiYun together with Old Master Xiao, Xiao Yang, and the others. He guessed that she should be one of the upper echelons of Northern Light City, so he didn't think of anything else. Now that he heard the question of an unfamiliar woman, he didn't know what to say.
Xiao Yang clearly saw through the other party's thoughts and immediately explained with a smile, "This is the Xiao family's grandmother. Your grandmother, Old Master Xiao's first wife. "
When Xiao Dahai heard this, he immediately understood.
He hurriedly explained, "It's like this. I'm not good at management. Under my leadership, the Xiao family has gradually gone downhill. This is something I don't want to see. Therefore, I earnestly request you to be the head of the family and lead the family to rise."
When Old Master Xiao heard that the upper-level Xiao family had gone downhill, he couldn't help but frown. He couldn't bear it in his heart, but he didn't immediately agree. He only looked at Xiao Yang hesitantly and said, "I'm already a member of the Northern Light. If I were to be the head of the family, wouldn't it be inappropriate? Moreover, I'm someone who came up from the middle level. I'm afraid that the other family members will be prejudiced against me. "
Xiao Yang calmly said, "The members of the Northern Light are free. You can do whatever you want. There's no need to be restrained."
Xiao Dahai hurriedly explained, "Right now, there aren't many members of the Xiao family left. If we can rise up under your leadership, I think that everyone in the Xiao family will listen to your arrangements."
Old Master Xiao nodded and said, "To be honest, I was already the head of the family when I was in the middle level. I was in charge of everything, and I also managed the Nine Mountains and Seas. The Nine Mountains and Seas are as big as the lower level. Therefore, I'm very good at management. If you don't mind, I can help you manage the Xiao family. When the Xiao family rises up, I'll return it to you. "
Xiao Dahai was instantly moved. He shed tears of gratitude and said, "Thank you, Great-grandfather. I don't care much about power and wealth. What I care about is the rise of the Xiao family."
"Xiao Yang, with someone as sensible and considerate as you, it's time for him to rise up."
The Xiao Clan's Great Master said in admiration.
Lin Shiyun said, "Don't worry. I'll also help the Xiao family."
"Thank you, Great-grandmother."
Xiao Dahai once again expressed his heartfelt gratitude.
Xiao Yang saw that they had reached an agreement. He said to Old Master Xiao, "Great-grandfather, the Xiao family currently doesn't have anyone to hold the fort in the big city. Why don't you go with Great-grandmother?"
This was also the reason why Xiao Yang left the two of them behind. He didn't let them follow Chian Guangqi to carry out the mission.
Xiao Yang's original intention was also to hope that the Xiao family could rise up.
"En, then let's go."
Old Master Xiao responded. Then, he left the City Lord's Mansion with Lin Shiyun.
As for Xiao Dahai, who had just arrived, he originally wanted to congratulate Xiao Yang. However, it seemed that he didn't have time now. Therefore, he left the congratulatory gift behind and hurriedly left with Old Master Xiao and Lin Shiyun.
Xiao Yang didn't accept the congratulatory gift. Instead, he had Sun Desheng go to the Treasure Pavilion to collect some materials and resources, and gave them to Xiao Dahai.
Xiao Dahai was so grateful that he couldn't express it with words.
Oriental City.
A group of people dressed in luxurious clothes set out.
Their destination was the Northern Light City.
The purpose of the Southern Forest of the East was naturally to obtain the Soul Blood that Xiao Yang had already grasped.
At that time, he was the vanguard and came to stop Xiao Yang. However, he was defeated by Xiao Yang. Therefore, Xiao Yang took away his Soul Blood and promised him that if Old Ancestor Dongfang defeated Xiao Yang, then Xiao Yang would return the Soul Blood.
Xiao Yang and Old Ancestor Dongfang had indeed met once. However, before the battle started, Old Ancestor Dongfang admitted defeat.
This also led to the Soul Blood of the Southern Forest of the East being in the hands of Xiao Yang.
This time, when he went to the Northern Light City, he actually didn't have the confidence to get the Soul Blood back. Everything depended on luck.
Recently, Old Ancestor Dongfang's performance was very good. Perhaps Xiao Yang would give him some face.
This was also the reason why Old Ancestor Dongfang called Old Ancestor Dongfang to the Southern Forest of the East.
As for City Lord Chen, after he received Old Ancestor Dongfang's persuasion letter, he decisively gave Chen City to Xiao Yang. This was the origin of the Northern Light City.
Along the way, City Lord Chen also accompanied him to the Northern Light City.
He also had some hope that Xiao Yang would return the Soul Blood to him.
Old Ancestor Dongfang's expression was somewhat heavy. With his face, if he only asked Xiao Yang to return a person's Soul Blood, he might be able to do it.
If he asked Xiao Yang to return the Soul Blood of two people, it might be difficult.
However, he still had to give it a try.
Dongfang Nanlin was an outstanding disciple of the Dongfang family. He was the leader of the younger generation. For the future of the Dongfang family, Old Ancestor Dongfang would definitely not give up Dongfang Nanlin.
And City Lord Chen was Old Ancestor Dongfang's relative. Without Old Ancestor Dongfang's request for help, he took the initiative to intercept Xiao Yang.
