Many people said that Dugu Yan was henpecked. Even Dugu Yan himself admitted this, and he had never refuted it.
However, everyone else thought that Dugu Yan was henpecked because of Xiao Chao's identity as the Xiao clan's first daughter. After all, Dugu Yan could be said to have relied on Xiao Chao to stabilize his position as the Dugu clan's Patriarch.
However, only Dugu Yan himself knew that the reason he was henpecked was not only because of Xiao Chao's identity as the Xiao clan's first daughter, but more because Xiao Chao was indeed stronger than him. In every aspect, other than strength, Xiao Chao was stronger than him.
Back when Dugu Yan had just taken the position of Patriarch, many people in the Dugu clan were dissatisfied with him, and secretly made some small moves.
If Dugu Yan had only relied on himself, he would definitely have been badly damaged by those people. It was only because of Xiao Chao's schemes that Dugu Yan was able to deal with those people and stabilize his position.
However, the more time passed, the more Dugu Yan hated Xiao Chao ordering him around. Perhaps it was because of a man's dignity, or perhaps it was because the power of the Patriarch could not be interfered with.
But even so, he had to admit that Xiao Chao was indeed much stronger than him.
According to a report from the Su clan, Dugu Yan only saw on the surface that the Su clan was in chaos, and that the Dugu clan might have a chance to fish in troubled waters.
However, Xiao Chuo was able to tell that something was amiss. From this, she deduced that Su Xin had interfered. Just based on this, she was much stronger than Dugu Yan.
Dugu Yan frowned. He did not expect Su Xin to interfere, but as long as it was not the Imperial Court, he did not have to worry.
It was just Su Xin. As long as he did not borrow the power of the Imperial Court, he could only stir up trouble in the dark, and would not be able to cause any waves.
Therefore, Dugu Yan directly said, "What's the big deal about Su Xin? No matter how he schemed and schemed, he would only end up benefiting the Dugu Clan.
You don't have to worry about this matter. I will directly gather the power of the Dugu clan to take action. At worst, I will ask the old ancestor to step in. I will definitely swallow the Su clan! "
Xiao Chuo shook his head and said, "You don't understand Su Xin. Have you ever seen Su Xin suffer a loss since his debut?
In the Northern Plains Path, the only power that can threaten him is our Dugu Clan. He must have already come up with a countermeasure. I advise you not to waste your time. "
The more Dugu Yan heard this, the more upset he felt. What do you mean you understand Su Xin? What right do you, a woman, have to control so many things? I'm the head of the Dugu Clan, not you, Xiao Chuo!
After suppressing his anger for a long time, Dugu Yan finally exploded. He pointed at Xiao Chao and shouted, "Xiao Chao! What do you mean by that? Are you saying that I'm not as good as Su Xin?
Also, you said that I don't understand Su Xin. Do you mean that you know him very well? Why would a married woman like you want to know about Su Xin? Did she fall in love with him because he was a rising young hero in the World of Martial Arts? It's a pity that he's in his prime, but you're already an old woman!
If you think that I'm trash, then let's separate. You can go back to your Xiao Clan. I don't care which young heroes you find. Without you, Xiao Chao, I'm still the head of the Dugu Clan! "
Xiao Chao didn't respond to Dugu Yan's sarcasm. However, there was no expression on her charming face. The warm room seemed to have turned into a world of ice and snow.
For some reason, Dugu Yan suddenly shivered when he saw Xiao Chao's appearance. He suddenly felt his heart palpitate.
The room was silent. Finally, Xiao Chao said indifferently, "Are you done going crazy? Then you can scram. "
Dugu Yan's expression changed. However, he still snorted coldly, slammed the door, and left.
The corner of Xiao Chao's mouth revealed a disdainful smile. The flower petals between her fingers were like fairies, constantly dancing.
"Hehe, you're right about one thing. I understand Su Xin much better than you."
At this moment, on top of Wutong Mountain, Su Clan's Old Ancestor was so angry that he laughed instead.
"Good, good, good. I didn't think that you guys would be so successful. You actually dared to draw your weapons at me.
Back then, my Su Clan's ancestors left you bunch of bastards behind out of kindness. They didn't want to kill the people of my Su Clan's bloodline. I didn't think that you guys would turn against your master today! "
Su Mingqi and the rest looked at Su Clan's Old Ancestor coldly. He finally said what was in his heart today.
In the eyes of those of the direct bloodline, weren't they just bastards who were from the collateral bloodline? When did they ever treat them as one of their own?
Su Clan's Old Ancestor looked at Su Mingqi and the rest and sneered, "Originally, I wanted to let you guys stay for a few more days. However, I was wrong. It's better to get rid of this rotten sore as soon as possible. I didn't think that a moment of carelessness would cause this rotten sore to become a malignant tumor!
Forget it, forget it. Today, I will ruthlessly cut off all of you malignant tumors. Even if my Su Clan's vitality is damaged because of this, you bastards can forget about getting a share of my Su Clan's power! "
All the Su Clan's collateral bloodline members were dumbfounded as they looked at Su Clan's Old Ancestor who called them bastards. The last glimmer of hope in their hearts was suddenly shattered.
In fact, these people still had a glimmer of hope for Su Clan's Old Ancestor. After all, Su Clan's Old Ancestor had ruled the Su Clan for hundreds of years. His prestige in the Su Clan was unparalleled.
However, they could now see that although Su Clan's Old Ancestor was the Su Clan's Old Ancestor, he was not the Old Ancestor of the collateral bloodline. Instead, he was the Old Ancestor of the direct bloodline!
At this moment, Su Clan's Old Ancestor had completely given birth to the collateral bloodline members' murderous intent. He took a step forward and suddenly, the light of the Great Sun shone for eternity. A powerful pressure suddenly shrouded the Su Clan's collateral bloodline members. Moreover, there were more than 30 Su Clan's warriors above the Divine Transformation Realm behind Su Clan's Old Ancestor.
All the collateral bloodline members' eyes were on Su Mingqi.
When they were preparing to act yesterday, Su Mingqi told them that they were definitely not fighting alone. When the time came, someone would naturally deal with Su Clan's Old Ancestor.
At that time, they chose to believe Su Mingqi out of trust. However, where were the reinforcements now?
Su Clan's Old Ancestor could not help but shake his head when he saw the slightly frightened eyes of the collateral bloodline members. He said coldly, "Now you regret it? However, it's too late. Everyone has to pay for what they have done. Since you chose to stand up in the first place, you have to pay the price! "
There was silence, but at this time, a sudden burst of applause was heard. A voice even said, "Well said! People do have to pay for what they have done, but I feel that you should pay the price. "
The crowd could not help but look back and saw two figures walking toward them as if they were strolling in a courtyard.
Among the two people, one of them was naked from the waist up, and his muscles were emitting a golden luster. He was an old foreign monk of Buddhism with the strength of Yang Spirit Realm.
The other person was relatively young. He was wearing a black and red official uniform of Six Fan School with a ferocious goshawk embroidered on his chest and a long sword as red as blood hanging from his waist. He had the strength of Harmony Realm.
These two people's dressing was too obvious. Besides Su Xin, one of the four Super Arresters of Six Fan School, and a Yang Spirit Realm master of Buddhism, who else could it be?
However, although Su Xin was walking with a Yang Spirit Realm expert, everyone's eyes were attracted by Su Xin. They secretly wondered why he was here.
Only some of the guest warriors who liked to inquire about Jianghu gossip had vaguely heard about the grievances between Su Xin and the Su family, so they thought of a very terrible thing.
Could Su Xin be involved in the affairs of the Su family? Otherwise, how could these collateral warriors of the Su family have the courage to resist the direct descendants of the Su family and the Old Ancestor of the Su family?
The faces of the Old Ancestor of the Su family and the others suddenly became extremely gloomy.
Although they were not as sophisticated and changeable as some wily old foxes, they were not fools. If they still couldn't figure out what was going on when Su Xin appeared here at this time, they would really be idiots.
The Old Ancestor of the Su family looked at Su Xin coldly and said, "No wonder these bastards dared to suddenly unite to provoke the direct descendants of the Su family. It turns out that you are the one who provoked them!"
Su Xin said lightly, "When there is oppression, there will be resistance. Isn't that wrong? Moreover, you can't blame anyone for your Su Family's current state. You can only blame your own shortsightedness.
In the past, the Su family of the Ningyuan Hall was a Duke or Marquis under the command of the Human Emperor. How prestigious it was, but now? Amongst the top powers in the Jianghu, your Su Clan isn't ranked at all. It's even to the extent that after you die, if your Su Clan doesn't have a Yang God Stage expert to hold down the fort and can't change this bad temper, then it'll be annexed sooner or later! "
Su Xin's words were not a threat. What he said was actually the truth.
Now there were countless second and third-rate forces in Jianghu. Why hadn't they been annexed by those big sects? Very simple, because they had no value.
Those second and third-rate forces were looked down upon by many big sects, and their so-called Inherited Cultivation Methods were also looked down upon by those big sects.
An innocent man would get into trouble because of his wealth. But if this man had nothing, who would come to take advantage of them?
What's more, the Diabolism was in decline now, and most of the big sects in the Central Plains belonged to the Righteous Path. It was not worthwhile to deal with those small forces and ruin their reputation for no reason.
But the Su family was different. How many ancient secret methods did the Su family have? Every secret method was enough to be the Inherited Cultivation Method of a first-rate force, and there were even many of them that made the top forces envious.
In this way, if the Su family was not suppressed by the Old Ancestor of the Su family, many martial arts forces would want to tear off a piece of meat from the Su family.
Just like the Dugu family of the Northern Plains. It should be known that the Old Ancestor of the Su family was not dead yet, but Dugu Yan had already gathered many experts of the Dugu family for a meeting, ready to take advantage of the situation.
If they waited until the day the Old Ancestor of the Su family really died, perhaps it would not only be the Dugu family of the Northern Plains who would come.
