"The Patriarch has arrived!" At this time, a loud shout came from outside the hall.

When Xiao Rong and the other two heard this, they immediately stood up from their seats and looked towards the outside of the hall respectfully.

At this moment, he saw a graceful and elegant figure stepping into the hall. Her every move was graceful and calm, displaying the demeanor of a big family.

Xiao Mei, who had her head lowered, couldn't help but to look up to see a delicate figure dressed in lily white clothes. Although she looked elegant, the soft texture flickered under the wrinkles, making her look gentle and seductive. Looking at her unsmiling oval face, her eyebrows were like willow trees, and her pair of slender phoenix eyes looked like they were born with electricity.

"Xiao Rong greets Leader of Cao Family …" When Xiao Rong saw the delicate figure appear, he immediately cupped his hands together and greeted her.

Xiao Qinyu and Xiao Mei also quickly bowed.

This delicate figure was none other than the Patriarch of Cao Family, Cao Qinglan.

"Clan Head Xiao, no need to be so polite, please take a seat!" As Cao Qinglan spoke, she crossed the hall and walked to the front of the hall. She sat down on the seat with the nine phoenixes facing each other and indicated to Xiao Rong and the other two with her hands.

Only then did Xiao Rong and the other two sit down in fear.

"I assume this is Clan Head Xiao's Ling Yuan?" Cao Qinglan's gaze fell on Xiao Mei.

"Exactly." Xiao Rong cupped his hands and nodded.

"I've long heard that Clan Head Xiao has a beautiful sister. It seems that it's true." Cao Qinglan said with a smile.

"Leader of Cao Family is too kind." Xiao Rong hastily replied with a smile.

"Oh yeah, why is it just the three of you, Young Master Bai, that is recommended by Master Pang Loong? "Why didn't I see it …" Cao Qinglan was, of course, most curious about Bai Yuhao. After all, that was recommended by Master Pang Loong. Therefore, she also wanted to see what Bai Yuhao really had that could be recommended by Master Pang Loong.

"This …" Xiao Rong's expression changed.

"What's wrong? Did you not come? " Cao Qinglan's eyes darkened.

"Reporting to Leader of Cao Family, due to this eccentric nature of Young Master Bai, he did not come with us. Instead, he came with my sister …" Xiao Mei replied very politely.

"So he's coming?" Cao Qinglan immediately looked at Xiao Rong.

"Of course, of course." Xiao Rong replied with a head full of cold sweat.

"That's good." Cao Qinglan nodded.

At this moment, a petite figure suddenly stormed into the hall.

"Where's that bastard? Where did you hide it? " Once the delicate figure entered the hall, she immediately looked around in search of something.

"Xun, what are you doing?" Upon seeing this, Cao Qinglan's delicate voice immediately scolded him.

This delicate figure was none other than Cao Qingxun.

"Of course I'm looking for that bully, what's his name …" Cao Qingxun asked Xiao Rong as she stared at him.

"Is Second Miss looking for Young Master Bai?" Xiao Rong hastily replied.

"What Young Master Bai?" He was simply despicable, vulgar, shameless... "A toad bastard who wants to eat swan meat …" Cao Qingxun said a series of adjectives with her hands on her hips.

"Xun, stop being so presumptuous. From today onwards, don't go out. Stay in your room and think with me." Cao Qinglan's face sunk. She put on a very serious expression as she put on the airs of a family head …

When Cao Qingxun saw that her big sister was angry, she raised her head and pouted as if she had suffered some sort of grievance. But in reality, it was obvious that she was the one looking for trouble with someone else.

"Haha …" At this time, another wave of laughter came from outside the hall. Following that, an elderly figure walked in.

"Master! Elder sister said that she wanted to imprison me. Quickly, help me beg for mercy. " Cao Qingxun immediately called out when she saw the elderly figure.1

"Master Pang, stop spoiling that girl. She's getting more and more presumptuous!" Cao Qinglan glared at Cao Qingxun. Speaking of her younger sister, she also felt a headache coming on.

"Patriarch, don't be impatient. I will talk to her later." Pang Loong smiled as he stroked his beard.

Cao Qinglan heard Pang Loong's words and shook her head with a sigh. She knew Pang Loong doted on her like a granddaughter, so how could he talk to her like that? The temper of her sister was most likely spoiled by Pang Loong. And Pang Loong's position in the Cao Family could be considered below one person, above tens of thousands of people, his influence might even be above her, the Patriarch. If it wasn't for Pang Loong's heartfelt support all these years, she probably wouldn't be able to continue being the family head.

Cao Qinglan's father, Cao Xiong, was also the former Patriarch of the Cao Family. At that time, he was a peerless expert of the Majestic Emperor Stage, a person who could shake the heavens, and therefore, his Cao Family was also at that time, unable to even compare to that Qi Family. At that time, his Cao Family was also like the sun in the sky, and he was unable to even compare to that Qi Family.

But who would have thought that while training, Cao Xiong would suddenly go berserk, and with a berserk personality, he actually killed over a hundred disciples of Cao Family. In the end, it was stopped by the combined might of several elders of Cao Family, and even though Cao Xiong had managed to preserve his life, his cultivation was crippled because of that, and furthermore, he was like a living corpse, unconscious state.

When something happened to Cao Xiong, Cao Family was like the chaos in the world, and the other great clans also took the chance to spy on him, hoping to take advantage of the chaos.

Cao Xiong had two brothers, his elder brother Cao De, and his third brother Cao Fann. They were both high ranked Mad God Spirit Controller, and were both well-known figures in the Woodgod Kingdom. So, after Cao Xiong's accident, the two brothers started to fight openly and secretly for Leader of Cao Family's position. In the end, they even fought loudly and almost split the Cao Family.

Just as the foundation that had been built for hundreds of years of Cao Family was about to be destroyed, it was precisely Pang Loong who stood out and embraced the considerably young Cao Qinglan as Patriarch. And because Pang Loong was already famous in Woodgod Kingdom at that time, even King of the Woodgod Kingdom admired him. Within the Cao Family, there were also forces that followed Pang Loong's lead.

Even though Cao Xiong's two brothers were extremely unwilling to accept Cao Qinglan being the Patriarch, but because of Pang Loong's prestige and position in the Woodgod Kingdom, as well as his influence, they didn't dare to act rashly, lest they end up with nothing. Thus, the two brothers endured it. However, for the past ten years, they had always kept a close eye on the Patriarch's position and secretly nurtured their own forces.

Fortunately, Cao Qinglan could also be considered to have lived up to expectations. Even though she was only nineteen years old and had already become the Patriarch, she had put in all her effort in the past ten years towards Cao Family, sacrificing her youth as well.

However, Qi Family whose strength was originally inferior to Cao Family also took advantage of that moment to gain the momentum and the strength to contend against Cao Family …
