Chapter 16: Biological Father Xiao Yuan Arrives to Demand the Opportunity

"You've come so quickly."

Hearing this familiar voice, a cold sneer appeared on Xiao Fan's lips. Originally, he had not intended to see this father of his so soon, but since the other party had come, seeing him would do no harm.

Long Miaoyin was intelligent; hearing the man's shouting outside and seeing Xiao Fan's expression, she roughly guessed who had arrived.

"You really cannot enter. Please let me go and inform the Third Master first." The servant blocking the way felt bitter inside.

Xiao Yuan ignored that and shouted angrily, "Get out of my way!"

How could these servants be his match? After pushing them aside, and led by the butler, he strode into the courtyard and arrived at the main hall.

If it were in the past, Xiao Yuan certainly would not have dared to cause trouble in the Dragon Family, but now that Xiao Tian had joined the Piaomiao Immortal Palace, what could the Dragon Family dare do to them?

After entering the main hall, the father and son locked eyes.

Xiao Yuan did not speak first, and Xiao Fan likewise remained silent, instead coldly staring at his father.

The father who had once regarded him as a "waste" and a commodity to be traded!

Long Miaoyin sat quietly to the side, also not speaking, her face covered by a veil, so outsiders could not see her expression.

Xiao Fan, having reached the Huaqi Realm, had an aura that was vastly different from before; this change was fundamental.

Xiao Yuan was incomparably furious; his waste of a son was actually showing this kind of attitude upon seeing him arrive?

However, thinking of the purpose of his visit, he forced himself to endure, took a deep breath, and then slowly said, "Have your injuries healed?"

Then, without waiting for Xiao Fan to answer, Xiao Yuan found a seat and sat down on his own.

Xiao Fan's expression was calm, revealing none of his inner thoughts, and he said indifferently, "I am fine."

Xiao Yuan nodded, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Have you really reached the Huaqi Realm?"

He could not believe it; going from the Body Tempering Realm to the Huaqi Realm in one month!

How could such a thing be possible?

One must know that back then, it had taken Xiao Tian three years to Cultivate from the Body Tempering Realm to the Huaqi Realm.

Xiao Fan picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip, and said calmly, "What do you think?"

In the hall at this moment, it seemed as if Xiao Fan was the elder.

Watching his son, whom he had previously considered a "waste," adopt such a posture, Xiao Yuan suppressed his anger once again and said, "So you are admitting it?"

"The purpose of me coming here is very simple; I just want to ask how you Cultivate, and whether you have obtained some treasure."

Xiao Fan was not surprised by Xiao Yuan's directness and replied indifferently, "If it is, so what? If it isn't, then what?"

"If it is, I hope you can give the Opportunity you obtained to your younger brother."

"Give it to him?"

Xiao Fan's voice immediately turned cold; his younger brother, who had beaten him half to death and called him a "waste" with every breath.

Now that he had obtained an Opportunity, he was being asked to give it to him?

"That's right. Your younger brother is a true Genius, while your Aptitude is… mediocre. Therefore, for the sake of the Xiao Family, for the sake of your younger brother, taking out your Opportunity and giving it to him is the best choice."

Xiao Yuan explained. He did not believe that Xiao Fan had Cultivated using his own ability; he must have obtained some treasure.

Or rather, he did not acknowledge this son from the bottom of his heart.

"Heh… The Xiao Family?"

Xiao Fan's expression was icy as he stared into Xiao Yuan's eyes and said coldly, "Xiao Yuan, have you forgotten that my status now is that of a matrilocal son-in-law, and I am already unrelated to the Xiao Family?"

"Also, I remember that a few days ago, you personally announced that you were removing my name from the Xiao Family genealogy. This means that from beginning to end, I have never existed in the Xiao Family, right?"

Xiao Yuan was stunned… He had indeed forgotten about the matter of crossing Xiao Fan's name off the genealogy.

At that time, he was afraid that the Xiao Family would lose to Long Xiaotian, bringing shame to his Xiao Family, so he had made that decision.

After Xiao Fan won, he had forgotten about this matter.

"Eldest Young Master, at that time, the Master was also thinking of the Family, fearing the Xiao Family would lose face. Furthermore, you still have the blood of the Xiao Family flowing in you, don't you?" The butler on the side hurriedly spoke up.

"Is it your turn as a servant to speak here?"

Xiao Fan shouted coldly and struck with his palm. A wave of Qi shot out from his palm, striking the butler directly in the chest.

"Pfft!"

The butler flew backward, hit the ground, spat out a mouthful of blood, and his face turned pale.

"Xiao Fan, you actually dare to make a move in front of me!" Xiao Yuan stood up and shouted angrily, while also feeling shocked.

Xiao Fan's strength had truly reached the Huaqi Realm, and it was not the first stage of the Huaqi Realm. Judging by the aura he had just emitted, he had reached at least the third stage of the Huaqi Realm.

In fact, Xiao Yuan had guessed wrong. Xiao Fan had been in seclusion in the Secret Room for seven days, and his cultivation had only reached the Middle Stage of the second stage of the Huaqi Realm.

However, because of the power of the Nine Transformations of Qi Cultivation Technique, Xiao Fan's current strength could rival the third stage of the Huaqi Realm.

"When masters are speaking, when is it the turn of a servant to open their mouth?"

Xiao Fan did not retreat but spoke coldly.

Xiao Yuan's cultivation was close to the Great Perfection of the Huaqi Realm, but this was the Dragon Family.

Xiao Yuan certainly would not fall out and fight him over such a trivial matter involving the butler.

The butler did not dare to make a sound; he felt an extremely heavy Evil Qi from Xiao Fan, and now he dared not provoke this The Terror.

Xiao Yuan took a breath and did not pursue the matter of the butler, saying once again, "What is your Opportunity, and can you give it to your younger brother?"

"My Opportunity?"

Xiao Fan sneered, "Heh… I think you are overthinking it. Regardless of whether I have an Opportunity, even if I did, do you think I would give it to Xiao Tian? Stop dreaming."

Xiao Yuan stared viciously at Xiao Fan, and the latter did not back down, the two staring at each other with the same gaze.

"Let's go!"

Finally, Xiao Yuan squeezed out a few words from between his teeth and turned to leave.

The butler on the ground struggled to climb to his feet and stumbled along as he left; he did not want to stay here for even another minute.

Watching Xiao Yuan's retreating back, the father and son of the past had become what they were today.

Xiao Fan did not feel that he had done anything wrong; when had the other party ever treated him as a son?

…

Xiao Yuan returned to the Xiao Family and angrily smashed everything within reach in the main hall.

"Damn it, damn it, this unfilial son!!"

"This waste, he actually dared to speak to me like that!!"

"Damn it, I told him to give up the Opportunity, and he actually refused!! Damn it!"

Xiao Yuan's cursing could be heard clearly throughout the entire Xiao Mansion, and Wei Xia, who was on the side, had an extremely ugly expression upon seeing this.

"Master, is there really no way to make that beast give up the Opportunity?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuan cursed, "Damn it, what way could I possibly have!"

"Master, why not send someone to take this news to the Piaomiao Immortal Palace and inform Tian'er? Let Tian'er decide." Wei Xia said, "Tian'er is now a Disciple of the Immortal Palace and is highly valued by the Immortal Palace. When the time comes, have Tian'er bring a few people from the Immortal Palace over to interrogate that little beast under torture. Let's see if he still won't talk."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuan's eyes lit up, and he felt this was a very good idea.

Now Xiao Fan had married into the Dragon Family and also possessed cultivation in the Huaqi Realm.

Even if he wanted to suppress him now, he would be unable to do so.
