"Zhou Clan?"
Hearing Li Bingrui's words, Xiao Yan could not help but raise his eyebrows. He immediately thought of Zhou Tong, who was the previous owner of the Luo Tian Cauldron.
"Both of them have the surname Zhou, and they are rivals. Could it be that … this Zhou Clan is the clan that Zhou Tong belongs to?"
Xiao Yan rolled his eyes. He involuntarily sighed and shook his head because of this. If this was really the case, it would be a little too dramatic. The two clans had fought with each other for a thousand years. Although the Futu clan had won, the ancestor of the Zhou clan had coincidentally gotten Xiao Yan to kill Futu Hao for him. In this way, the strength of the Futu clan in the area around Nanlin City would definitely shrink greatly. By the time the various factions came to suppress them, the Futu clan would no longer exist.
In this way, the dispute between the two clans would eventually lead to mutual destruction.
…
During the next two days, Xiao Yan's group had quite a good time under Butu Hao's hospitality. During this period of time, Butu Hao had repeatedly requested for Xiao Yan's group to stay a little longer. Xiao Yan's face was naturally courteous, but his heart involuntarily felt a little doubtful. It was true that this old man was warm, but it seemed to be a little overboard. Moreover, his tone seemed to be probing. There were a couple of times when his attention was placed on Lian Er.
In this regard, Xiao Yan was secretly cautious. He did not expose all of this, but quietly waited for the old man's performance. Originally, Xiao Yan did not have much intention to kill the old man, but his behavior made Xiao Yan feel a little threatened.
He did not like the people behind him to be the target of others. Therefore, no matter what the old man had in mind, Xiao Yan would definitely eliminate him before he could carry it out.
However, now was not the time. Just as Xiao Yan had said before, after all, it was the old man's birthday banquet. He should at least give him some face. As for taking his life, it would not be too much to talk about it later.
…
The spacious hall was bustling with activity. The entire Futu Family was filled with a festive atmosphere. Today was the birthday of the Ancestor of the Futu Family, Futu Hao. At this moment, the invited experts were either in the courtyard or in the hall. Everyone's face was brimming with joy.
Although there was no lack of people among these forces who hated the Futu Family to the bone, these people did a perfect job of handling the situation.
At this moment, on the main seat in the hall, an old man who looked like he had one foot in the grave sat with a smile on his face. As he watched the guests below greet him, his turbid old eyes could not help but reveal a proud expression. He especially enjoyed this attitude of being surrounded by stars.
After a long while, Xiao Yan led the Little Fairy Doctor and the others into the hall. He politely cupped his hands toward Futu Hao, who was sitting on the main seat. Only then did the latter stand up to welcome them.
Seeing this scene, the expressions on everyone's faces in the originally lively hall froze. Then, all kinds of gazes fell on Xiao Yan and the others. Many of the people present had heard of this young man who had been personally invited by Futu Hao. However, when they saw him now, they could not help but feel a little surprised. Who exactly was this young man to be treated in such a manner by Futu Hao, who was an Origin Emperor expert.
"Haha, everyone, I believe that you are also very curious about who this mister is."
Futu Hao smiled faintly. The words that came out of his mouth immediately raised the spirits of the people present. Every one of them perked up their ears and waited for Futu Hao to reveal the answer to them.
"Ke ke, if we were to talk about it, I believe that this mister's name is like thunder in everyone's ears. Next, the old me will solemnly introduce everyone. This mister is the one who participated in the battle between the three sects in the extreme south not long ago … Xiao Yan!"
"Wow!"
As soon as these words came out, the people present burst into an uproar. Many gazes of disbelief fell on Xiao Yan. It was hard to imagine that this person, whose name shook the extreme south, would actually appear in front of them. Moreover, what was even more shocking was that he had appeared at Futu Hao's birthday banquet. This was undoubtedly a form of support for the Futu Clan!
After this incident, the status of the Futu Family in the southernmost region would be further elevated. At that time, there would be many forces that would join them. Thinking of this, the future of the Futu Family would be immeasurable!
Futu Hao could not help but sneer inwardly as he gazed at the changing expressions of the people in the hall. These fools probably did not know that after today, not only would the Futu Clan's reputation soar, but a Source Zong level expert would also appear. In the future, the Futu Clan would not be limited to the tiny Nanlin City. From today onwards, even the Burning Flame Valley would have to show some respect to them!
After everyone present took their seats, the birthday banquet officially began. Everyone present chatted with each other. Their gazes repeatedly swept back and forth between Xiao Yan and Fu Tu Hao. The atmosphere in the hall also became livelier.
The entire Futu Clan, and even the entire Nanlin City, slowly passed the banquet in a festive atmosphere. It was only late at night that Xiao Yan and the others returned to the courtyard.
With a thought, the Genesis Qi in Xiao Yan's body rapidly circulated. The haze on his face swiftly disappeared, and a bright light flashed in his pitch-black eyes as killing intent quietly emerged.
After instructing the Little Fairy Doctor and the others, Xiao Yan's body moved. His body flashed and disappeared into the night sky. The few of them looked at each other from where they stood and helplessly shrugged their shoulders. After which, they quietly sat in the courtyard and waited for Xiao Yan to return.
On the other side, Futu Hao was slowly returning to his room. Just as he was about to close the door, Xiao Yan's figure appeared in his courtyard like a ghost. Futu Hao immediately frowned and quietly circulated the Genesis Qi in his body. Xiao Yan's arrival did not seem like a good thing had happened.
"Mister Xiao Yan, it's already late. Why don't you rest early?"
The old man's eyes flickered. He could clearly sense a murderous intent in Xiao Yan's eyes. Could he have discovered something?
With this thought, the uneasiness in Futu Hao's heart grew. Since he had discovered something, why hadn't Futu Hao shed all pretense of cordiality two days ago? Why had he waited until now?
"Old mister, your birthday is over. I'm here to collect something from you on behalf of someone else."
Xiao Yan's expression gradually turned indifferent. Futu Hao also stepped out of the door. His turbid eyes stared intently at Xiao Yan as he said in a low voice, "What do you want?
"Take what? Take your life? On behalf of who? "
"Luo Tianding, Zhou Tong."
