Xiao Feng slowly walked into the hall, and everyone's gazes landed on him. Lian 'er looked at him with some lingering fear. When she saw Xiao Xuan walk in, she quickly hid behind Xiao Xuan.
"I didn't expect you to call me."
Xiao Yan slowly stood up. He looked at Xiao Feng in front of him and spoke with a smile.
Xiao Mingyuan was also stunned by the former's appearance. He was a little surprised. Even Xiao Dingtian had no authority to order the prince to do anything, but the outcome was actually like this.
"I'm here on my own behalf, and it has nothing to do with Xiao Dingtian."
Xiao Feng slowly shook his head and continued, "I'm just curious.
"I'm just curious. Do you really intend to accept the challenge without any other preparations?"
Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows and could not help but smile. He immediately teased.
He then teased, "Are you concerned about your opponent?"
"I just feel that it's not worth it. You should know the strength of Xiao Lei and Xiao Zhuobin. Even if you can defeat one of them, it will be enough for you to use all your strength. From the moment you agreed to this battle, you were already destined to lose."
Xiao Feng stared at Xiao Yan and said in a deep tone.
Even Xiao Mingyuan couldn't help but frown as he looked at the latter. Although these words weren't pleasant to the ears, it was the truth.
Regardless of how one looked at it, Xiao Yan would undoubtedly lose if he were to face two even stronger experts from the Source Sect by himself. The price of this battle was something that they were clearly aware of in their hearts. This was also the reason why Xiao Mingyuan wished to prevent Xiao Yan from participating in this battle.
"It's a great taboo to be afraid before the battle."
Hearing this, Xiao Yan merely smiled and replied with a sentence. Following which, he once again spoke.
"Xiao Yan appreciates the prince's intentions, but a man must do what he says. This battle concerns the survival of me and my grandson in the Xiao Clan. Xiao Yan has no way out."
"The Xiao Clan is huge, and you have the patriarch and first elder behind you. If you are in trouble, they will definitely help you. How can you say that you have no way out …"
Xiao Feng frowned. Just as he finished speaking, Xiao Yan's expression suddenly changed. A ferocious anger surfaced on his calm face as he suddenly roared.
"If that's the case, why didn't they stop Bai Hua when she was in danger? That night, there were so many pairs of eyes watching, watching with their own eyes! Why didn't they help? Tell me! "
Xiao Feng's words instantly ignited the fury that Xiao Yan had been suppressing for the past few days. His eyes instantly turned scarlet as he stared at Xiao Mingyuan. Where was the third elder of the Xiao Clan at that time?
"Xiao … Xiao Yan. At that time, I went out to handle some matters and only returned to the clan at ten in the morning. When I found out about that matter …"
An ashamed expression involuntarily surfaced on Xiao Mingyuan's old face when he was stared at by Xiao Yan in this manner. He knew that Xiao Yan had an extremely good relationship with the people beside him and understood the position they held in Xiao Yan's heart. However, even he was quite helpless with regards to that matter.
It wasn't that the patriarch didn't want to interfere in that matter, but once he did, the three elders would definitely use this as an excuse to make things difficult for Xiao Yan. At that time, even if they could save Bai Hua, the matter would be completely blown up. They might not be able to continue staying in the Xiao Clan. It was also because of this that the patriarch and the three elders kept each other in check and didn't interfere.
But now, Xiao Mingyuan also understood that it was too late for him to say anything.
"Sigh …"
Xiao Mingyuan sighed helplessly. He also regretted that he didn't hurry back to the clan as soon as possible, which led to the irreversible situation.
After a long while, Xiao Yan gradually woke up from his anger. He looked at Xiao Xuan and saw the latter nodding his head. Only then did he let out a long sigh of relief and said with some exhaustion.
"The two of you, please return."
Once he said those words, he ignored the two of them, turned around and returned to his room. Last night, Xiao Yan did not sleep at all because of the medicinal pill. Now that he had vented, he finally felt a tiredness that could not be stopped from climbing into his mind. At this moment, Xiao Yan only wanted to have a good sleep.
In the hall, Xiao Mingyuan and Xiao Feng looked at each other and saw a helpless expression in each other's eyes. Since the matter had already been decided, it was no longer something they could change. Moreover, the matter yesterday was seen and heard by more than half of the Xiao Clan. Even if the patriarch stepped in, he wouldn't be able to easily change it. It was likely that they could only pray that Xiao Yan wouldn't be defeated by the two of them.
However, just as the two of them walked out of the hall and arrived at the courtyard outside, another familiar figure appeared outside the door. Xiao Mingyuan and Xiao Feng raised their eyes and looked over. This person was actually Xiao Tian.
"You can't be here to persuade him to give up, right?"
Xiao Feng said slowly as he looked at Xiao Tian in front of him.
The Crown Prince had always been independent in the clan. Although there were many elders supporting him, he didn't have a good relationship with most of the clan's disciples. The person in front of him was one of them.
"So, you have already persuaded Xiao Yan?"
Hearing this, a surprised expression appeared on Xiao Tian's face. With the subtle relationship between Xiao Yan and the former, he actually took the initiative to persuade Xiao Yan to give up?
"If that's the case, then there's no need to say anything more. He won't give up. Even if the patriarch steps in today to persuade him, he won't waver in the slightest."
"Unfortunately, I'm not here to persuade him to give up. I'm here to ask him to accept the challenge."
The moment Xiao Feng finished speaking, Xiao Tian sneered and bowed to Xiao Mingyuan. After which, he walked past the two of them and went straight to the main hall. At the same time, an invitation letter appeared in his hand.
"Xiao Yan, the Great Deacon has ordered me to invite you to accept the challenge."
Striding into the hall, Xiao Tian casually waved his hand and threw the invitation letter in his hand towards Xiao Yan, who had his back facing him. Just as the invitation letter was about to hit Xiao Yan's back, Xiao Tian leisurely raised his hand and caught it. At the same time, he turned around to face Xiao Yan.
"What is this?"
Looking at the invitation letter in his hand that was sealed, Xiao Yan glanced at Xiao Tian and asked indifferently.
At the same time, the two people who had yet to leave followed closely behind and entered the hall. Their gazes simultaneously fell on the invitation letter in Xiao Yan's hand.
"Since this challenge is based on where you will go, then naturally, it has to be more formal. Open the invitation letter and imprint your Spiritual Imprint. After this, the invitation letter will be publicized in the clan."
"No!"
Almost at the same time, when Xiao Mingyuan's and Xiao Feng's exclamations were emitted, the Spiritual Strength between Xiao Yan's brows had already invaded the ironing post. The instant the ironing post was opened, a flame symbol was imprinted on it.
"Buzz!"
On the other side, in a huge fighting arena within the Xiao clan, Xiao Yan's name slowly appeared on a stone tablet. Above it were two other names, Xiao Lei and Xiao Zhuobin.
