Everyone present was at least at the level of a family head. They understood the importance of Xiao Yang, Gu Shanhe, and the others. These youths had been chosen by the Poison Sect and would grow there in the future. Xiao Yang, in particular, was on equal footing with the three pavilion elders. His future was limitless.
Once they used the caravan alliance to kidnap them, they could ask for their help if they encountered any problems in the future. Even if others were greedy for the alliance, they would still have to consider Xiao Yang's strength and background.
This was like fighting for a protective umbrella.
The family heads were all shrewd people. How could they let these big shots go so easily?
Besides, the caravan alliance's focus wasn't on profit, but authority. Xiao Yang and the others couldn't split themselves off to participate in the management, so they were guaranteed supreme authority.
Xiao Yang couldn't refuse the family heads' enthusiasm. After all, many of the people had pleaded for him before. This moved him greatly and warmed his heart. It was only right for him to do something for Flame City and the caravan alliance in the future.
"Alright, then we'll do as you say. If there's nothing else, you may disperse. You can decide on the exact structure of the organization, the proportion of people, and the management. Remember to give credit to the cultivators who volunteered to help us. "
Xiao Yang waved a hand to drive them away.
Gu Shanhe, Gu Shanqing, and the others also smiled wryly.
In truth, these benefits weren't essential to them, so they didn't care too much about it.
Letting Xiao Yang make the decision wasn't a big deal. In any case, the one who had to bear the most responsibility was Xiao Yang. As for them, it was fine as long as they got the benefits.
The family heads stood up one after another, promising Xiao Yang that they wouldn't forget anyone who contributed. Then they cupped their fists to Xiao Yang and the others and bid farewell.
One of the family heads suddenly recalled the terror of the flamingo and asked, "Benefactor Xiao Yang, do you know anything about the giant bird that swallowed the Blood Ancestor?"
When the Patriarchs heard this, they couldn't help but slow down their footsteps and perk up their ears to listen.
Even Gu Shanhe, Gu Shanqing, and the others looked over.
Everyone present knew that the Blood Ancestor had been swallowed by the Flamingo. After all, when the Flamingo transformed, it was a thousand feet tall and covered the sky. The entire city was within its shadow, and many innocent people were injured. Therefore, it was normal for them to be shocked.
Xiao Yang thought for a while. Since he had already agreed to join the Business Alliance, he might as well give them some reassurance so that they would feel at ease.
He pointed to the purple Flamingo on his shoulder and said with a smile, "To be honest, the big bird you are talking about is the one on my shoulder. Its name is Flamingo, and its cultivation is comparable to a fifth level Martial Arts Grandmaster. Therefore, in the future development of the Business Group Alliance, we don't need to be afraid of anything. We don't bully others, but we can't be bullied casually."
This could be considered as Xiao Yang's promise and guarantee, which made all these Patriarchs happy and excited. Wasn't the reason why they wanted Xiao Yang and the others to stay was to fight for protection?
Therefore, they expressed their gratitude to Xiao Yang and used various words to praise Flamingo.
Flamingo couldn't help but feel smug. It raised its head high and screeched a few times.
It was indeed amazing that Flamingo could evolve to this stage. Those who didn't know would think that it was a purple flame.
Many Patriarchs left one after another, except for Patriarch Zhao, who was slightly behind. He must have something to say to Xiao Yang. The other Patriarchs naturally left in advance. When almost everyone had left, Patriarch Zhao hesitated and walked towards Xiao Yang.
Xiao Yang frowned and looked at Patriarch Zhao in confusion. He asked, "Patriarch Zhao, what's the matter?"
Patriarch Zhao laughed and glanced at Gu Qianqian and Lan Jiaoye with fear. He then said, "Brother Xiao Yang, it's a private matter, a private matter. It seems that Brother Xiao Yang is only fifteen or sixteen years old. I don't know if you're married yet. It's like this, my daughter has admired Young Hero for a long time. How about letting my daughter serve Young Hero in the future?"
As he spoke, he waved to the woman surnamed Zhao not far away.
This impromptu meeting was considered a formal meeting. It was reasonable to not bring family members, but Patriarch Zhao still brought them. It could be seen how much he doted on the woman surnamed Zhao and how much he valued Xiao Yang.
The woman surnamed Zhao had been eagerly watching the commotion over here, and her gaze would occasionally sweep over to Xiao Yang shyly. When she saw Patriarch Zhao waving his hand, her delicate face couldn't help but reveal a reserved and shy smile, and she gracefully walked over with light steps.
"Father, you called for me?"
The woman surnamed Zhao gently greeted Patriarch Zhao. She then looked at Xiao Yang, covered her mouth and chuckled. She said, "Greetings to Young Master Xiao Yang."
Xiao Yang immediately understood Patriarch Zhao's intention. His face turned red.
Gu Shanhe, Gu Shanqing, Chen Zhifu, and the others couldn't help but laugh.
Gu Qianqian and Lan Jiaoye couldn't stand it anymore. They puffed up their cheeks and glared at Patriarch Zhao like hens protecting their chicks. "Get lost! Cousin Xiao Yang has already pledged to marry me. If he dares to betray me, my auntie will tear him into pieces. You guys have no chance!" Patriarch Zhao scolded Gu Qianqian.
Gu Qianqian heard this, her body trembled. She angrily glanced at Lan Jiaoye and hurriedly said, "Nonsense, how could I not know about this? Last night, Young Master Xiao Yang has already decided to travel the world with me."
"Oh, you, you two!"
Lan Jiaoye was so angry that her body was trembling. She glared with her red eyes. Her eyes were misty, and she was about to cry. She felt so wronged that she wanted to cry.
She was so angry that she almost couldn't speak. After sniffling a few times, she turned to Gu Qianqian and said, "Slut, what nonsense are you talking about? Cousin was clearly with me last night. Don't try to drive a wedge between us. You have no sense of shame."
Gu Qianqian also retorted. She snorted and said, "You are full of lies. What qualifications do you have to blame others?"
Looking at the two women fighting over this, Xiao Yang, Patriarch Zhao, and the others were very embarrassed.
Especially Patriarch Zhao. He wanted to introduce his daughter to Xiao Yang, but before he could even open his mouth, two devastatingly beautiful women were almost fighting over Xiao Yang. This made him very nervous.
"Hmph, I won't bicker with you now. Let me ask you, are you willing to let other women share Xiao Yang?"
Lan Jiaoye angrily asked.
"Of course not."
Gu Qianqian gave a reasonable answer and snorted.
Then, the two of them tacitly stared at the woman surnamed Zhao. Their eyes were full of hostility.
The woman surnamed Zhao was also very nervous. These days, it was easy to like someone.
"Cousin, Patriarch Zhao is asking you what you think. Why aren't you saying anything?" Lan Jiaoye looked at Xiao Yang with grievance and snorted.
Gu Qianqian's face was also full of resentment.
