“Today is the Xiao clan’s big day, but no one invited me to such a grand banquet. This really disappoints me.”
Before Xiao Hong and the others could leave, a deep male voice came from the door. After seeing who it was, Xiao Wuyou and the others’ expressions changed slightly. Zhao Huaifeng also looked as if he had seen a ghost.
The guests who just arrived were Xiao Mingyan, Ye Xuan, and others. The other guests also recognized Xiao Mingyan’s identity and started to talk among themselves.
“Isn’t this the Xiao clan’s eldest young master? Didn’t they say he had gone berserk and couldn’t get out of bed? Why has he suddenly appeared here?”
“That’s right, Xiao Mingyan’s breathing is stable. He doesn’t look injured at all. Who are the people beside him?”
How could Xiao Hong and Xiao Wuyou not see what the others could see? Before today, Xiao Mingyan was almost on his last breath, and he probably wouldn’t live for more than a few days.
Xiao Wuyou thus ordered his men to drive Xiao Mingyan out of the residence and leave him to fend for himself. He didn’t pay any more attention to Xiao Mingyan, but who knew that Xiao Mingyan would appear in front of him again in just a few days? It sure was hard for him to die.
Liu Ruxue looked a little frightened but quickly regained her composure. She lowered her voice and asked, “Why is he here? Didn’t they say that he didn’t have many days left to live?”
A hint of ruthlessness flashed across Xiao Wuyou’s eyes. Those who didn’t know better would have thought that he had a blood feud with Xiao Mingyan.
“It seems that his luck is not bad. He met an otherworldly expert who cured his wounds. If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have been so soft-hearted.”
What they didn’t know was that Xiao Mingyan had not only recovered, but he had also profited from the disaster. His cultivation and strength had both risen to a higher level.
“What should we do now? He can’t be jealous of what we’ve done and want to seek revenge, right?”
Xiao Wuyou did not take Xiao Mingyan seriously at all. He replied, “He wasn’t my match in the past, and even less so now. If he knows his place, I might consider giving him a way out. Otherwise, he can’t blame me for being ruthless.”
Xiao Mingyan’s gaze swept across the faces of everyone in the Xiao clan. There were complex looks, annoyance, jealousy, and so on, but there was no guilt.
Liu Ruxue looked at Xiao Mingyan vigilantly, afraid that he would take away everything Xiao Wuyou had. Xiao Wuyou was even more so. However, this mother and son were good at pretending, so no one had noticed the difference in their expressions yet.
Xiao Hong didn’t know how to face Xiao Mingyan for a moment. He smiled slightly and was about to speak, but he didn’t expect Xiao Mingyan to strike first.
“How was it, Xiao Wuyou? Did you enjoy my supreme dragon bone?”
This sentence was a little strange. The originally noisy environment instantly became quiet.
Looking at Xiao Mingyan’s cold face, the Xiao clan’s expressions were strange. They were clearly blood-related, but their interactions were worse than that of strangers. They could even be said to be enemies.
The people present smelled something unusual.
“What does Xiao Mingyan mean by this?”
“Why do I feel that the Xiao clan’s eldest young master isn’t here to congratulate, but to seek revenge?”
“There’s definitely something strange about this. Previously, it was rumored that Xiao Mingyan had become a cripple. Although I can’t see the depth of his cultivation, it doesn’t seem to be related to becoming a cripple.”
Although Xiao Wuyou had obtained the supreme dragon bone by all possible means, he did not want outsiders to know about this.
It was the same for Xiao Hong. After all, it would be detrimental to the Xiao clan’s reputation, so he could only calm Xiao Mingyan down for now.
“Mingyan, listen to our explanation. There’s a misunderstanding. I know you’ve suffered a lot but believe in me, your father. I’ll definitely give you justice after this.”
In the face of Xiao Hong using their blood relations to attack, Xiao Mingyan was unmoved. Perhaps he still had hope before, but after so many days, Xiao Hong’s indifferent behavior had completely chilled his heart.
Although Xiao Hong wasn’t present, as the head of the Xiao clan, nothing could be hidden. If Xiao Hong really had plans to exact justice for him, he would have done it long ago. He wouldn’t have waited until now. This could only mean that Xiao Hong was pretending to be deaf and dumb, turning a blind eye to what had happened to him.
“Misunderstanding?”
Xiao Mingyan laughed coldly and said, “Father, what do you mean by a misunderstanding? Do you mean when Mother brought me a bowl of medicine and I fell unconscious after that? Or when I woke up and found out that the supreme dragon bone ended up in Xiao Wuyou’s possession? There are too many incidents, I can’t remember them clearly.”
Xiao Wuyou realized what he was about to say, but it was too late for him to stop Xiao Mingyan. His eyes instantly widened. Xiao Mingyan actually dared to do this!
When all the guests heard the inside story, their mouths opened so wide that an egg could be stuffed in. This was the content that they could hear.
This was shocking! Why did the madam of the Xiao clan work with her second son to kill her eldest son and dig out the supreme dragon bone?
Everyone was wondering if they were hallucinating. Such an unimaginable thing had actually happened.
Both of them were her children. How could Liu Ruxue be so cruel? Even if she was biased, she shouldn’t be so cruel to her other biological son.
Xiao Mingyan looked calm, but just from the description, one could tell how painful it was. After all, his bones were dug out by someone.
“I can’t believe it. The Xiao clan’s eldest young master didn’t go berserk. His supreme dragon bone was dug out by his mother and brother.”
“I’ve also received some news that something went wrong with Xiao Mingyan’s cultivation, so he had no choice but to transfer the supreme dragon bone to Xiao Wuyou. I didn’t expect it to be for Xiao Wuyou’s personal gain.”
“Does the head of the Xiao clan know about this? How could he allow it? This is simply so strange.”
“Even if Xiao Wuyou’s talent is better than Xiao Mingyan’s, they shouldn’t have to do such a thing.”
