Chapter 1723 - The little scheme of the Cheng siblings (3)

“We happened to learn about the secret realm, so the clan leader sent us here to explore. But we didn’t expect this place to be so dangerous.” The CAO family’s third elder said with a lingering fear. When he saw Cheng Xuan and the people around him, his heart that had been hanging for a long time finally relaxed a little. Although the strength of the people Cheng Xuan had brought was not very high, it was still better than their entire Army being annihilated and becoming a commander of light!

“I see.” Cheng Xuan knew that the cunning old man wasn’t telling the whole truth, but he didn’t bother to expose him. Instead, he politely replied.

“Young master Cheng! Are they the subordinates you brought here?” The third elder of the CAO family looked at the person beside Cheng Xuan and asked curiously.

“No! They are my friends. ” Cheng Xuan chuckled.

“Big brother young master! You’re the young master of the Cheng family, how can you make friends so casually? Besides, even if he wanted to make friends, he should at least make friends with people of similar strength and family background! These people are not worthy of being your friends!” Hearing this, Cheng Xian ‘er immediately said in dissatisfaction.

“Xian er! Don’t talk nonsense! It’s the young master’s right to make friends with whoever he wants, we have no right to ask. ” When Cheng Yi heard Cheng Xian ‘er’s words, his heart skipped a beat. He thought to himself,”it’s over. Xian’ er’s mouth is going to ruin things!” In the current situation, what they needed the most was an Alliance, and the other side had so many people, which was exactly what he wanted. Thus, he was very afraid that Xian ‘er’s words would anger them, so before Cheng Xuan could respond, he rushed to scold him.

“Big brother! How can we not have the right to ask? This is related to our Cheng family’s face. If young lord big brother makes some shady friends, it’ll be our Cheng family that’ll lose face. ” Cheng Xian ‘er heard her own brother blaming her for an outsider, and her heart was filled with dissatisfaction.

“You have no right to ask what kind of friends I make! As for whether or not we’ll lose face for the Cheng family, it’s not something that can be decided with just a few words. ” Cheng Xuan said coldly. As he spoke, he couldn’t help but steal a glance at Leng ruoxue and the others. He knew the background of these people and knew how cruel and merciless they were. However, he wasn’t afraid that Leng ruoxue and the others would do anything to Cheng Xian ‘er in a fit of anger. Instead, he was afraid that Leng ruoxue and the others would blame him for this. If that happened, the heavens would take pity on him! This really had nothing to do with him! He was innocent.

After making sure that Leng ruoxue and the others weren’t angry at Cheng Xian ‘er’s words, he finally felt at ease. However, he still felt a little guilty. After all, Cheng Xian’ er was a member of the Cheng family.

Actually, it wasn’t that Leng ruoxue and the rest weren’t angry. It was just that they felt that there was no need to be calculative with a brain-damaged woman since they were in the mystic realm. After all, the mystic realm was the place they should be most concerned about. As for this brain-damaged woman, they would just let her run her own course. They didn’t need to be too concerned.

“Young master Cheng! Xian ‘er has always been direct, I hope you don’t mind. ” The CAO family’s third elder saw that Cheng Xuan’s expression was a little ugly, and he secretly glared at Cheng Xian ‘er, who didn’t understand the situation, and tried to smooth things over.

“I know she’s direct, so I can let her go no matter what she thinks. After all, we’re all members of the Cheng family, how can there be overnight hatred? However, the person she mentioned just now is my friend, so I can’t just ignore this. ” Cheng Xuan said very seriously.

Hearing Cheng Xuan’s words, elder Cao San hurriedly said to Cheng Xian ‘er,””Xian er! Quickly apologize to young master Cheng’s friends!”

“Third Grandpa! I didn’t do anything wrong, why do you want me to apologize?” Cheng Xian ‘er said with an aggrieved expression.

“What you said just now was very impolite, so you must apologize.” Cao Sanzhang raised his face and said in an extremely displeased manner.

When they first entered the secret realm, they had brought no less than a hundred people with them. Although the majority of them were godkings, almost all of them had died in less than a month. This fact had given him a whole new understanding of the secret realm. As a result, he was rather excited when he saw Cheng Xuan bring so many people. What did this mean? This meant that their chances of survival had increased. In this secret realm, there was no lack of experts. However, there was a lack of cannon fodder. And now, Feng Da and the others had become excellent cannon fodder in his eyes. That was why he was so strict with Cheng Xian ‘er. He didn’t want them to run away in anger because of Xian’ er’s rudeness. It was not easy to see a person here.

“I’m telling the truth! You want me to apologize? no way!” Cheng Xian ‘er’s eyes were slightly red, and tears were welling up in her beautiful eyes. It was as if she would be flooded with water if third elder Cao said a word to her.

As the young miss of the Cheng family, she was now being reprimanded by an elder of her mother’s family. To be honest, she felt very unbalanced in her heart. However, who asked her mother to have a low status in the family? they had to rely on the power of their mother’s family to stand firm in the Cheng family! This decided that they had to look at the face of their maternal family sometimes, even if they were from the Cheng family.

As for their maternal ancestor, the CAO family, although it was not ranked among the eight great divine regions, it could still be considered a top-tier family in the divine realm. Furthermore, it had been passed down for many years. As a result, its status in the divine realm was only second to the eight great divine regions. The siblings relied on the maternal family in many ways. That was why the elders of the maternal family dared to reprimand her in front of outsiders! This fact also made her quite angry.

Seeing Cheng Xian ‘er’s stubbornness, third elder Cao had no choice but to send a voice transmission to Cheng Xian’ er. He explained the relationship between the two parties and asked her to put the overall situation first. After Cheng Xian ‘er heard third elder Cao’s explanation, she unwillingly lowered her noble head.

“I’m sorry! I’m sorry for being impolite just now. ” Cheng Xian ‘er’s face was slightly red as she said in embarrassment. She was indeed a young lady from an aristocratic family. She was very flexible and could bow and stretch. When she apologized, she looked very sincere. However, the flash of resentment in her eyes was still caught by Leng ruoxue, who was watching coldly from the side.

AI! It seemed that the acting skills of the young masters and young ladies of the big families were extraordinary! It was a pity that there were no Oscar Awards in the divine realm. Otherwise, she would definitely award the Best Actor and Best Actress to them. With such acting skills, it would be a waste if they were not stars. Leng ruoxue secretly thought to herself, but her beautiful eyes were sizing up the Cheng siblings.

They had some similarities with Cheng Xuan in terms of appearance. If Cheng Yi had not been in such a sorry state, he would have been an elegant young master. As for miss Cheng, she was as beautiful as a flower and could cause the downfall of a city. Coupled with her sorry appearance, it would make men cherish her more. However, the men around her who did not know how to be tender to women were exceptions.

As she thought of this, her beautiful eyes turned to ning haolan, who was hidden among the crowd. She thought to herself,’this guy seems to be a man who knows how to take care of women. I just don’t know if this miss Cheng is his type.’

Sensing Leng ruoxue’s gaze, ning haolan broke out in a cold sweat. What was this woman trying to do by sizing him up? He was so scared!

Just as ning haolan’s heart was in a mess, Cheng Xian ‘er saw that her apology didn’t get a response from the other party, and she became even more furious. These people really didn’t know what was good for them. The dignified miss Cheng apologized to them, but they completely ignored her. This made her feel like she had lost face, and the anger in her heart slowly brewed and burned.

“I’m sorry! I was being rude just now. ” Cheng Xian ‘er suppressed her anger and repeated.

“It doesn’t matter! We can understand that miss Cheng is doing this for young master Cheng’s sake. After all, it’s really unfair for us to befriend young master Cheng with our status. ” Seeing that no one wanted to pay attention to this miss Cheng, Leng ruoxue could only reply with kindness.

Leng ruoxue’s words made Cheng Xuan break out in cold sweat.

When Cheng Xian ‘er heard Leng ruoxue’s reply, she felt a sense of relief in her heart. The woman who spoke seemed to know her place. She liked this kind of woman. However, when she saw Leng ruoxue’s face, she did not like her that much.

‘Damn it!’ How could this woman be so beautiful? and the man beside her was simply a match made in heaven with her. The two of them stood together so well-matched and extremely eye-catching. However, looking at their clothes, she also knew that they were not from a top family. With this thought in mind, her heart felt a little more balanced. Moreover, she found another familiar face among them.

“Brother LAN! It’s really you!” Cheng Xian ‘er ignored Leng ruoxue’s words as she looked at ning haolan in disbelief. Her beautiful cheeks were a little pink as she lowered her head shyly. In fact, she was actually comparing ning haolan to the demonic man she had seen earlier!

Brother LAN was the young master of the ning family, the future head of the family. His future was limitless, and that devilish man definitely could not compare to brother LAN in terms of status and strength. The only advantage he had over brother LAN was that beautiful face that was unforgettable. However, no matter how beautiful a man was, if he did not have the corresponding strength and status to add color, he was just a vase. And what was the use of having such a man?

Comparing the two, the scales in her heart naturally leaned towards ning haolan.

As for that woman, other than being more beautiful than her, her strength and family background were definitely not comparable to hers. After thinking about it this way, her jealousy towards Leng ruoxue faded. After all, she valued a man’s strength and status more because it meant that she would have the chance to share this honor.

As she thought about it, the smile on her face became more and more charming. The way she looked at ning haolan became more and more affectionate. When Leng ruoxue saw her like this, she knew that she had fallen for ning haolan.

It was still alright! Leng ruoxue heaved a sigh of relief.

As long as he didn’t have any ideas about the evildoer! As for which man Cheng Xian ‘er had taken a fancy to, that was none of her business.
