C849 It Was Actually Him
Xiao Ziyi replied with a smile, "Yang Xuan is my husband. In terms of seniority, he is also your son-in-law and also a member of the Xiao Family. It is reasonable for him to come here."
"But..."
Xiao Yuanshan did not know how to refute her words.
Actually, it was not that he did not think of Yang Xuan when this happened.
It wasn't just him. Many people from the Xiao Family also suggested calling Yang Xuan over to help. After all, they had all witnessed Yang Xuan's ability before.
However, after hesitating for a while, Xiao Yuanshan rejected the idea.
This was because the enemy he faced this time was different from the other three major families. This time, it was Daoist Cang Yun who came. He was a man who came from the purebred world of the Jianghu.
He also admitted that Yang Xuan was very powerful, but this was only a relatively ordinary world. He felt that the Xiao Family had already owed Yang Xuan a lot. Therefore, he couldn't involve Yang Xuan in this matter no matter what.
"No buts."
Xiao Ziyi walked onto the stage with a smile on her face. She looked at Xiao Yuanshan and smiled. She then turned to look at the crowd below the stage and said with a smile, " Everyone, please rest assured. I can guarantee to everyone that... Everyone here will definitely be fine. "
"I am not underestimating my enemy. I know that Daoist Cang Yun is not an ordinary opponent, but I also want all of us to be safe as long as Yang Xuan arrives."
"But Ziyi, it is not that I don't trust Younger Brother Yang, but..."
Xiao Yuanshan was worried and prepared to explain.
"Dad, you have to trust me."
Xiao Ziyi knew what he wanted to say. She smiled and said, "If I am not confident, I will not take the initiative to call Yang Xuan over. I think I care about him more than any of you."
Xiao Yuanshan frowned and thought about it. He felt that it made sense. His precious daughter had been very wise since she was young. She had never missed out on any judgment she made.
"Younger Brother Yang, I want to ask you a question. Please answer me seriously."
Xiao Yuanshan looked at Yang Xuan and said with a serious expression.
"Master of Xiao Family, please speak."
Yang Xuan smiled and nodded.
"I believe Ziyi has already told you what kind of enemies we have this time."
"I want to know how confident you are in facing them this time. Is it more than thirty percent?"
Xiao Yuan asked with a serious face.
"Thirty percent?"
Yang Xuan's expression suddenly became strange.
Xiao Yuanshan quickly gritted his teeth and said, "If it really doesn't work, twenty percent is fine too. If it's less than twenty percent, I won't let you get sucked into this vortex no matter what."
"Hahahaha!"
Unexpectedly, Yang Xuan suddenly burst into laughter.
Xiao Yuanshan looked confused. "Younger Brother Yang, why are you laughing? Did I say something wrong?"
Yang Xuan laughed and shook his head, then looked at Xiao Yuanshan and asked, "Master of Xiao Family, I have a question for you as well."
"If an ant climbs to your feet and bared its fangs at you, how confident do you think you are in stepping this ant to death?"
Xiao Yuanshan was confused. He felt that this question was very strange, but he still answered truthfully, "Of course it's ten thousand percent."
"That's right."
Yang Xuan shrugged casually and said with a smile, "Master of Xiao Family, let me give you a definite answer. Just like what Ziyi said, as long as I am here, it will not be a problem anymore."
"What you need to do next is to do what you need to do."
"Oh, right. If it's convenient, get someone to prepare seven coffins. Those seven Gray Cloud Daoist came all the way here. We can't let them die without a burial ground, right?"
"But..."
Xiao Yuanshan had a belly full of questions.
"Dad, don't say buts. Just do as Yang Xuan says."
Xiao Ziyi interrupted him with a smile, "Alright, hurry up and let them go. Do what you need to do. Just pretend that this is not the case."
"I haven't seen Yang Xuan for a long time. We still have to find a place to talk. We will call you tonight after we have settled the matter. When the time comes, you can just find someone to clean up the mess."
After she finished speaking, Xiao Ziyi held Yang Xuan's arm and the two of them walked out of the door while talking and laughing.
Xiao Yuanshan wanted to say something but stopped himself. He opened his mouth a few times to the door, but in the end, he did not say anything.
"Family Head, why don't we trust Second Miss this time."
One of the family members said, "Think about it carefully. Since young, Second Miss seems to have made every correct judgment. I think that since she dared to say that, she must have some idea in her heart."
"That's right. I think Brother Yang is quite capable and unfathomable. He must have his own plans."
"Anyway, since it has already come to this, why don't we trust Second Miss this time?"
Xiao Ziyi always kept a low profile in the family. She never quarreled with anyone and never quarreled with anyone. She liked to be alone.
However, everyone liked her and admired her. They trusted her very much.
Under everyone's persuasion, Xiao Yuanshan pondered for a while and finally made up his mind. He sighed and said, "Forget it. Just listen to Ziyi and pretend nothing happened."
As he spoke, he raised his head to look at everyone and said. " I reckon that you won't be able to sleep even if I tell you to go back today, so why don't you just stay here? Prepare some food and wine. Let's have a good gathering today. If there's an accident at that time, we won't be in such a hurry even if we're all together. "
Everyone nodded in agreement.
It was night.
At 11 PM sharp.
Yang Xuan and Xiao Ziyi arrived at a spacious wasteland in the outskirts.
"Those few priests are quite good at picking places."
Yang Xuan put his hands in his pockets and looked around. He smiled and said, "This place is very suitable for fighting. Even I can't wait anymore."
Xiao Ziyi smiled and said, "You still have to wait a while. People in the Jianghu are very punctual. If you say it is 11: 30, it will not be one minute late, and it will not be one minute earlier."
"Oh? Is that really the case?"
Yang Xuan said with a smile, "But before that, it doesn't stop me from warming up."
"Hmm?"1
Xiao Ziyi did not quite understand what Yang Xuan said.
Then she saw Yang Xuan suddenly turn towards a direction and say faintly, "Since you are already here, then show yourself. Hiding is meaningless."
Immediately after, an angry shadow walked out from the grass nearby.
"What are you two doing here?"
The man opened his mouth and questioned angrily.
Yang Xuan and Xiao Ziyi were stunned. Although Yang Xuan had noticed that there was someone hiding in the grass, he did not know the person's identity and appearance.
And judging from his tone, other than anger, there was also childishness.
When the other person got closer and saw the other person's appearance clearly, Yang Xuan and Xiao Ziyi revealed an extremely surprised and caught off guard expression.
This person was tall and thin, had a fair face, and was dressed cleanly. His eyebrows were sharp and his eyes were clear, and there was an especially pure and clean light in his eyes, just like a child.
"Shangguan Zhongzhi, why are you here?"
Xiao Ziyi quickly called out the other party's name.
This person was none other than the strange Shangguan Zhongzhi that she had met in the Heaven Policy Village the last time. He had confessed to Xiao Ziyi the moment he arrived.
