Chapter 167: Xiao Tian Returns

He Yutang and Elder Shi Ji went directly to find Sect Master Xu Yongnian.

They recounted the incident of encountering the demonic cultivators while they were out.

Upon hearing this, Sect Master Xu Yongnian's expression turned ugly, and he contacted Inner Sect Master Wu Xinjue on the spot.

After a brief discussion, the two decided to dispatch over a dozen Xuandan Realm Elders and a hundred Tongtian Realm Inner Sect Disciples from the Jixian Sect, personally led by two Grand Elders from the Elder Council.

In the Jixian Sect, anyone who can be called a Grand Elder has a cultivation at least at the Yuanhun Realm.

They are part of the Jixian Sect's foundation and represent its true high-end combat power.

This matter caused quite a stir within the Inner Sect, but it had little impact on the Outer Sect, and not many people knew about it.

…

Jingchuan City, Xiao Family.

Xiao Tian and his Master, Shou Yuanzhong, had just arrived in Jingchuan City.

With Shou Yuanzhong's cultivation, carrying Xiao Tian and the butler while flying through the air was very fast.

During this time, Xiao Yuan and his wife served them well.

This was a legendary powerhouse of the Xuandan Realm…

In a small place like Jingchuan, most people might never see a Xuandan Realm powerhouse in their entire lives.

Shou Yuanzhong sat in the main seat in the Xiao Mansion's great hall; as an Outer Sect Elder of the Piaomiao Immortal Palace, the largest power in Wuhuang Province, such respect was inevitable wherever he went.

Xiao Tian stood to the side, his face gloomy…

He had originally intended to break Xiao Fan's limbs upon arriving in Jingchuan City and drag him away like a dead dog…

As it turned out, the other party had actually left and was not in Jingchuan City!

It made him furious!

"Tian'er, what do you plan to do about this?"

Shou Yuanzhong looked at Xiao Tian with a calm gaze; he cared deeply for this Disciple.

With his Prodigy-level talent, he would surely surpass him in time.

"Master, I have already sent people to investigate. The North Pavilion Master of the Treasure Pavilion left Jingchuan some time ago, and his whereabouts are unknown."

Xiao Tian spoke, his tone somewhat cold: "This waste, Xiao Fan, must have fled to the Jixian Sect to avoid me…"

Shou Yuanzhong nodded: "The Jixian Sect is very strong. Even though our Piaomiao Immortal Palace is a cut above them, we cannot start a war casually."

The Jixian Sect has a very deep foundation and was once the hegemon of Wuhuang Province.

Even if their power is not as great as the Piaomiao Immortal Palace's today, they still dare not easily provoke a war!

"Then Master, is there no other way?"

Xiao Tian's eyes were cold; he hated Xiao Fan to the core and wanted to torture him to death!

Shou Yuanzhong paused; although he felt that Xiao Tian was a bit impatient and vicious inside…

However, he did not advise or restrain him.

Because in his view, it was not inappropriate for a Disciple to demand an Opportunity from a waste.

Even if the "waste" in the other party's words was his own biological brother.

"Going to the Jixian Sect to find someone and then taking them away is impossible… unless…"

Shou Yuanzhong's eyes turned cold as he said slowly: "You can lure him back. If we can't act in the Jixian Sect, can't we just act in Jingchuan City?"

"Master, you mean…?" Xiao Tian's eyes lit up.

"He entered the Jixian Sect, at most he is just an Outer Sect Disciple, or perhaps just a Utility Disciple; he doesn't amount to much…"

As an Elder of the Piaomiao Immortal Palace, Shou Yuanzhong was naturally very familiar with the internal affairs of the Jixian Sect.

"I will accompany you to the Dragon Family. Didn't they say he is now a live-in son-in-law of the Dragon Family and no longer recognizes your Xiao Family? Then let the Dragon Family send someone to notify Xiao Fan… Give the Dragon Family a deadline to have Xiao Fan return within ten days, otherwise, for every day they exceed, I will kill one person from the Dragon Family."

Shou Yuanzhong's words were plain, but they carried a chill.

An Outer Sect Disciple of the Jixian Sect dying in a duel on an Arena outside is no big deal.

It is similar for the Piaomiao Immortal Palace.

However, going inside the Jixian Sect to make an arrest is definitely impossible.

This concerns the dignity of the Sect.

Xiao Tian was overjoyed upon hearing this and hurriedly bowed with cupped fists: "Thank you, Master…"

Xiao Tian informed Xiao Yuan and his wife about this matter.

Upon hearing this, the two were immediately overjoyed.

They had lost a great deal of face at the Dragon Family previously, and this was the perfect Opportunity to take it back.

The group marched aggressively towards the Long Mansion!

The Dragon Family, in the time since Xiao Fan left, had seen their overall strength increase greatly.

The Spirit Stone Mine that Xiao Fan helped the Dragon Family obtain had brought tremendous benefits to them.

Even the Disciples in the mansion had improved their cultivation because they were receiving more Spirit Stones every month.

The Xiao Family's group marched aggressively towards the Dragon Family.

It attracted the attention of many onlookers in Jingchuan City.

In front of the Long Mansion's main gate, besides the people from the Xiao Family, it was also packed with onlookers.

Naturally, the people from the Xiao Family were happy to see this.

"Who are you looking for?" A servant of the Long Mansion asked tremblingly at the gate.

Xiao Yuan took a step forward and said coldly: "Tell that old undead, Long Anhai, to get out here."

His voice was loud, and this shout was made using all his cultivation.

Not only could the people around hear it clearly, but even Long Anhai inside the Long Mansion heard it.

As the head of the Dragon Family, the largest Family in Jingchuan City, when had Long Anhai ever been insulted like this at his doorstep?

He slammed the table on the spot and rushed out with murderous intent.

"Xiao Yuan, I think you have a death wish!"

Long Anhai's voice was very loud, and one could hear his anger.

Following behind him were a group of Dragon Family Elders and servants of the Long Mansion.

The head of the Family being insulted at his own doorstep… This was a humiliation to the entire Dragon Family!
