The Xiao Family Castle was a small faction and wasn't famous among the many small sects in the Zi Wei. They only had a few hundred disciples and almost all of them were in the Minute Subtlety realm. There were very few in the Enlightened Mortal realm, not to mention the Illusion God realm experts. There were only a few of them in the entire Xiao Family Castle.
"Father, we're back!" The Xiao Family Castle was located on a small spiritual vein. It was a large courtyard that occupied an area of several hundred feet. Compared to the Emperor Heaven Sect and Ice Palace, the Xiao Family Castle was undoubtedly much more desolate. The Spirit Qi in the castle was very weak.
On this day, an oriole-like voice came from afar, startling the two disciples who were guarding outside the Xiao Family Castle. They looked towards the direction of the voice with vigilance, but when they saw who it was, they immediately relaxed.
"Young Miss, Young Master, you're back." One of them walked up. Although his expression was respectful, he wasn't humble at all. They looked at Jiang Xiaofan and Ye Yuanxue suspiciously and asked, "These two are?"
"The nobles we invited can help the Xiao Family Castle tide over this crisis," Xiao Wen said.
The two disciples immediately became respectful and said, "Sorry for offending you just now. Please come in."
"Why do I feel that the black-clothed man just now is somewhat familiar?"
"I think so too. I feel like I've seen him somewhere before."
After the Xiao siblings brought Jiang Xiaofan and Ye Yuanxue away, the two of them muttered to themselves in confusion. However, they didn't care too much. After all, they were brought back by the Xiao Family Castle Lord's biological daughter. They wouldn't harm their own father, right?
"This place …"
Jiang Xiaofan suddenly frowned and looked ahead.
"Pervert, what are you looking at? Let's go!"
"Oh, okay, I'm coming."
Jiang Xiaofan quickly followed and shamelessly pulled Ye Yuanxue into the Xiao Family Castle. In the inner hall of the Xiao Family Castle, Jiang Xiaofan saw the current Xiao Family Castle Lord. He was a middle-aged man with some gray hair on his temples.
"Yu 'er, Wen' er, you're back. I heard that there were some changes to the gathering. Are you alright?" The middle-aged man had a smile on his face. It was obvious that he was very worried about his children. However, when his gaze fell on Jiang Xiaofan, his expression immediately changed. He exclaimed, "It's you!"
"Senior knows me?"
Jiang Xiaofan was a little surprised. He didn't seem to have met this middle-aged man before.
The Xiao Family Fort Lord didn't say anything. He turned around and took out a map.
Jiang Xiaofan took a closer look and was immediately speechless. Damn it, why were these practitioners so bored? What did it have to do with you that I killed a few people? It was as if they were afraid that no one would know about it, and even sent his portrait here.
"Heroes come from the young."
The Lord of Xiao Castle nodded, his eyes filled with admiration. His cultivation was at the first Renhuang Realm, so he had naturally heard of Jiang Xiaofan's deeds.
"Father, Young Master Jiang is someone we invited. He can help you block the Divine Wind Sect."
Xiao Yu's words made the Xiao Family Fort Lord even happier. He cupped his fists at Jiang Xiaofan and said, "This Xiao would like to thank this young hero first. How should I address you, young man?"
"Senior is too polite. I'm Jiang Xiaofan."
The Xiao Family Fort Lord laughed and said, "To be able to receive Young Hero Jiang's help, this Xiao can't thank you enough!"
He looked at Ye Yuanxue who was beside Jiang Xiaofan and said, "Young Hero Jiang, this is?"
"Oh, my little Xue 'er, hiss …"
Jiang Xiaofan said, and then immediately felt a pain in his waist. He couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air.
The Xiao Family's Fort Lord naturally saw all of this with his own eyes. The Xiao siblings were also laughing up their sleeves. On the same night, the Xiao Family held a banquet. Many elders participated in the banquet, welcoming the arrival of Jiang Xiaofan and Ye Yuanxue.
Jiang Xiaofan had a clear understanding of the Xiao Family Fort's strength. Only the Xiao Family Fort Lord, Xiao Wenting, had reached the Renhuang Realm, and there were four elders of the Illusory God Realm. The rest were some disciples of the Enlightened Realm and the Minute Realm.
This made him finally understand how big the difference between these small forces and the four great sects was. The Immortal Dao Sects were really too strong. For example, the Emperor Heaven Sect's elders were at the Renhuang Realm at the very least, not to mention the Profound Immortal Realm Gate Lord and Grand Elder who had a Supreme Immortal Artifact. The difference was like heaven and earth.
"A young hero, a young hero!"
"Seeing Young Hero Jiang, these old bones like us feel old!"
After hearing about Jiang Xiaofan's deeds at the Battle Cliff, the four senior experts of the Illusory God Realm repeatedly sighed in admiration and continuously clinked cups with him. They'd naturally heard about the Purple Micro's grand gathering of the younger generation, and they sighed with emotion and sighed deeply.
Suppressing the young elites of the four great sects, obliterating a group of Divine Wind Imperial Guards, trampling to death the young master of the Divine Wind Gate, and two elders of the Divine Wind Gate. Which one of these things wasn't shocking? Who would have the guts to do it? But he did all of these things on the same day, causing these old men to be flabbergasted.
Not long after, someone carried over a whole roasted lamb and a whole roasted pig. They were glossy and looked very tempting.
This was specially ordered by Xiao Wenting because he had already heard that Jiang Xiaofan had a Renhuang Realm great demon by his side. It was like a white leopard, but its combat strength was terrifying to the point of causing people to be terrified. He naturally didn't dare to be careless.
Their information was still very good. The main reason why Jiang Xiaofan was able to annihilate the Divine Wind Imperial Guards was because of this great demon comparable to the Renhuang Realm. Without it, Jiang Xiaofan wouldn't have been able to block two elders of the Illusory God Realm.
It could be said that the snow-white demon beast was the main force of Jiang Xiaofan's arrival to help the Xiao Clan Fort, so he naturally had to receive it well.
But what made many people speechless was that the snow-white demon beast didn't even look at the fragrant roasted lamb. It was disdainful. It raised its head high and stretched out its claws to tear off Jiang Xiaofan's head.
Jiang Xiaofan was somewhat speechless about this. He took out the Inner Core from his interspatial ring. This was something he had specially prepared after going to the Imperial Heavenly Gate Dan Court to get the materials for refining for a long time before he left. This was because the Inner Core from before had all been looted on Fairy Peak.
"This …"
"Young Hero Jiang, you, you fed it …"
Everyone's mouths were wide open, including Xiao Wenting. They were almost petrified.
What did they see? That snow-white demon beast that looked like a leopard actually ate the Inner Core as if it was rice. It directly grabbed a handful and threw it into its mouth. Occasionally, it would even let out a dissatisfied grunt. It seemed that it wasn't very satisfied.
Heavens, that was a Yuan Dan, and it was actually being eaten as a meal. Everyone seriously felt that their spirit had suffered a severe blow. Just a single Yuan Dan was worth who knew how many roasted lambs, but now it was actually being eaten as a meal by a snow-white demon beast.
"Young Hero Jiang, this …"
Xiao Wenting was a little embarrassed. He had specially ordered the kitchen to prepare these delicacies, but he didn't expect that the demon beast would actually eat Inner Core. Heavens, who knew how many roasted lambs one Inner Core could buy? It could almost be piled up into a small mountain. He suddenly felt like he was presenting a treasure.
"This fellow's mouth is very picky. Senior, you don't have to mind it …"
Jiang Xiaofan himself was also depressed. Looking at the cute little thing quietly drinking water on Ye Yuanxue's shoulder, he suddenly felt a burst of indignation. It was too difficult to raise a snow-white Demonic Beast. If he didn't know the ancient alchemy technique, how could he raise such a bodyguard … Ah pui, such an ancestor.
"Actually, my Xiao Family Castle was once glorious, but the past is gone forever. The past can't be returned, and we've fallen to this point, sigh …"
After six jars of strong liquor, the few old men began to sigh. Including Xiao Wenting, their expressions became somewhat lonely. Xiao Wen and Xiao Yu were also the same. Even Xiao Yu began to drink.
"What's going on? Was this place once glorious?"
Jiang Xiaofan was somewhat surprised. Was the Xiao Family Castle once glorious? But now, as he swept his gaze around, he indeed felt a trace of desolate and strange aura. It was the same aura he had felt when he first appeared outside the Xiao Family Castle. There was a very strange aura here.
"This …"
The few old men suddenly became hesitant, as if they had some misgivings.
Jiang Xiaofan naturally saw it, and said with a smile, "It doesn't matter. If the seniors have any difficulties, you don't have to say it."
"Forget it, it's no big deal. That secret technique has been unable to be cultivated for several generations …" Xiao Wenting shook his head.
The other four old men looked at each other and didn't say anything. They didn't stop Xiao Wenting.
"Our Xiao Clan has a secret technique that was passed down from our ancestors. In the past, the Xiao Clan used to rule over this land with this secret technique. However, later on, no one in the Xiao Clan was able to cultivate this secret technique. From the first few generations, no one was able to cultivate it. After that, the Xiao Clan declined and could no longer reach its former glory …"
"The glory of the past, but now …"
"The past is the past. Let's not talk about this anymore. Our descendants are really useless!"
The few old men were all direct descendants of the Xiao Family Castle, and more or less, they were somewhat sorrowful. Then, they began to drink in large mouthfuls, as if they wanted to extinguish all their troubles with strong liquor.
Jiang Xiaofan, however, frowned. The Xiao Family Castle actually possessed such a peerless secret technique that once allowed them to rule the Purple Star. What kind of terrifying technique was that? It actually had such power. Could it be some kind of forbidden technique?
"No, it shouldn't be a forbidden technique …"
Jiang Xiaofan shook his head inwardly. No matter how powerful a forbidden technique was, it couldn't allow a force to rule the world because the so-called forbidden technique's cultivation conditions were too harsh. Generally, one would have to pay a huge price to use it.
Just like the Golden Spear Hall, they also possessed a forbidden technique. Now, there were also people who could cultivate it, but they were still a small sect. Even in a small sect, they were at most in the middle level, and their strength was very ordinary.
The banquet continued. In the end, Ye Yuanxue's little face was also flushed red. She secretly hugged a wine jug, which scared Jiang Xiaofan so much that he directly snatched it from her. How could a girl drink like this? She actually hugged the jug.
The banquet lasted for a few hours, and only dispersed in the early morning. Xiao Wenting naturally had already arranged a place for them to stay. It was the most secluded place in the Xiao Family Castle, and the environment was elegant. A servant led Jiang Xiaofan and Ye Yuanxue to rest.
"Oh, little Xue 'er, you drank too much. How about I take care of you tonight?" Jiang Xiaofan's expression was very serious.
"Don't even think about it!"
Ye Yuanxue rolled her eyes. She wasn't going to be fooled.
Jiang Xiaofan could only sigh. Sigh, as expected, it still couldn't work. He looked at the snow-white demonic beast on his shoulder. Damn, how could this one be so good at sleeping? He suddenly realized that the snow-white demonic beast did most of the day was sleeping. In a day, it slept for almost seventeen to eighteen hours. It was simply too good at sleeping.
