Half an hour later, the dinner started.

Although they were from the Xiao family, Xiao Chen still thanked Yang Mu and Nangong Liang for coming.

Of course, this is only if a fight doesn't break out. If a fight really breaks out, everyone present would probably draw their swords against each other.

Therefore, when Xiao Chen expressed his gratitude, Yang Mu, Nangong Liang and the people of the Xiao family still felt a bit complicated.

Fortunately, it’s not the worst result.

The happiest person was Yangmu.

Originally, when Ning Kejun wanted all the masters of Feiyunfang to come to the Xiao family, there were many voices of opposition in Feiyunfang.

If it were before, there might be more opposition, but as Ning Kejun became stronger and had more control over Feiyunfang, more people supported her.

The final decision was made by Yang Mu.

He made a big gamble. If he wins, Feiyunfang will most likely reach a higher level!

Now it seems that he won this gamble!

Considering Xiao Chen’s age and talent, as long as nothing unexpected happens to him, his future achievements… Yang Mu dares not even imagine it!

Look, now even the Xiao family is trying hard to get him back, which is enough to prove his potential!

And Feiyunfang, standing with Xiao Chen, will surely rise to prominence, and even reach a peak that has never been reached before!

The atmosphere of the dinner was very good. Those who came from the Xiao family were all people close to Xiao Chen. People like Xiao Bo, Xiao Wei and others were not there.

Xiao Mian came. He was originally a neutral party. The previous conflict between him and Xiao Chen was simply because Xiao Chen destroyed the white jade archway and wanted to kill the Xiao family.

From Xiao Yi's attitude towards Xiao Chen, Xiao Mian naturally knew what he should do.

Therefore, even though he was of a very high generation, he did not put on airs in front of Xiao Chen.

Under such circumstances, Xiao Chen would naturally not be his enemy anymore. What happened back then had nothing to do with Xiao Mian.

Xiao Chen even lowered his posture a little and apologized for injuring Xiao Mian.

All Xiao Mian could say was smile bitterly.

After being defeated by a junior, do you have the nerve to accept an apology?

Not at all.

However, Xiao Mian also made a decision, that is, to remain completely neutral and not care about Xiao Bo and the others anymore... In his opinion, Xiao Bo and the others were extremely wrong back then, and what happened today was their retribution.

Under these circumstances, the atmosphere at the dinner party couldn't be bad.

Of course, the only thing that was a little awkward was... Xiao Chen ignored Xiao Sheng.

It’s not that he deliberately ignored it, but he didn’t know how to face it.

Xiao Sheng didn't come to find Xiao Chen either, he also... didn't know how to face it.

Xiao Yi looked at the two of them without saying much, and had no intention of trying to persuade them.

There is no way to persuade others to do this, and others cannot get involved.

As the saying goes, the person who tied the bell must be the one to untie it. The matter between them father and son can only be resolved by themselves.

"Come, I'll toast to everyone."

Xiao Yi picked up the wine glass and said with a smile.

"I never had a good drink during my retreat, so I'm very happy to see you all today..."

"Senior Xiao, please."

Nangong Liang and others raised their glasses.

After the wine glass was put down, the bell rang.

Nangong Liang stood up and went out to answer the phone.

Xiao Chen looked at Nangong Liang who was leaving and felt a little awkward... How could these ancient martial arts masters hold mobile phones?

It's really a bit inconsistent!

Five or six minutes later, Nangong Liang came back with a strange look on his face.

After he sat down, he glanced at Xiao Chen, unable to hide his shock.

"Senior Nangong, what's wrong?"

Xiao Chen asked in surprise when he saw Nangong Liang looking at him like this.

"Senior Xiao, I just got the news... Did people from Xuantian Sect and Ximen Family come to the Xiao family today?"

Nangong Liang did not answer Xiao Chen's words, but looked at Xiao Yi and asked in a tone of confirmation.

After hearing Nangong Liang's words, Xiao Yi's expression remained unchanged. He knew that even if he issued a gag order, this matter would still be spread.

Now it seems that Nangong Liang has received the news.

"Yes, they were here."

Xiao Yi nodded.

"It is rumored that the Xuantian Sect's Third Elder Xuanhai and Ximen Yijian and Ximen Ping personally led the team, but they returned in defeat and were completely wiped out?"

Nangong Liang asked again.

Hearing this, Yang Mu was also surprised. Xuan Hai and Ximen Ping came in person? Returned in defeat? The whole army was annihilated? Did Xiao Yi take action?

His first reaction was that Xiao Yi must have taken action, otherwise this would not have been possible.

But when he thought about it again, he felt that something was not right. Behind Xuan Hai was the Xuantian Sect, one of the four major sects. If Xiao Yi took action, would he not care about the Xuantian Sect at all?

"Yes, Xuan Hai and Ximen Ping brought people here."

Xiao Yi nodded, then felt helpless.

"I have already issued an order to block this matter, but I didn't expect it to get out... How is the outside world spreading it now?"

"It is said that... Xiao Chen alone wiped out the Xuantian Sect and the Ximen Family, including Xuanhai and Ximen Ping, who were all defeated by Xiao Chen."

Nangong Liang tried his best to make his tone calmer, but his heart... was not calm.

After hearing what happened on the phone just now, he almost threw his phone away.

Xiao Chen defeated Xuan Hai and Ximen Ping?

Ximen Ping is easier to say, he probably hasn't even reached the half-step innate realm. Even if he is stronger than him, he probably won't be much stronger.

But Xuan Hai is a half-step innate master, and a strong one among the half-step innate!

Even though he already knew that Xiao Chen could fight against a half-step innate cultivator, he was still shocked and couldn't believe it.

But fighting and defeating are completely different things!

You can fight. That means you can fight against a half-step innate person, but whether you can win... we'll talk about that later.

You know, out of ten people who have reached the great perfection of Hua Jin, nine of them are definitely unable to fight against someone who has reached the half-step innate state, and the remaining one is very awesome!

In other words, being able to fight against a half-step innate person is already very awesome.

But Xiao Chen was not only able to fight, but also defeated the half-step innate master?

This is horrible!

Hearing Nangong Liang's words, Yang Mu's eyes widened and his body trembled.

"Um."

Xiao Yi nodded and glanced at Xiao Chen.

"The rumors are true. Xiao Chen did defeat Xuan Hai and Ximen Ping..."

“…”

After getting Xiao Yi's confirmation, the way Nangong Liang and others looked at Xiao Chen changed again.

"Hehe, why are you all looking at me like that?"

Xiao Chen smiled. It seems that... there is still a legend about his brother in the world.

"Originally, I blocked this matter in order to protect Xiao Chen..."

Xiao Yi spoke slowly.

"No matter what the outside world says, my Xiao family will not admit these things. However, the Nangong family, Feiyunfang and Xiao Chen are on good terms, so there is no need to worry about these things."

Hearing Xiao Yi's words, Nangong Liang's heart moved and he nodded.

He can understand.

But... he still couldn't accept it.

"There is no need to doubt Xiao Chen's talent. Perhaps it won't be long before he can fight against an innate master..."

Xiao Yi glanced at the crowd and suddenly felt that this might be a good opportunity.

Because the Xiao family has kept a low profile over the years, they have few allies among the twelve families.

This time, the Xuantian Sect and the Ximen Family were forced to retreat. Who knows what will be waiting for the Xiao Family.

If we can take this opportunity to win over the Nangong family and Feiyunfang, we will have a better chance of fighting against the Xuantian Sect and the Ximen family.

Nangong Liang, Yang Mu and others looked at Xiao Chen. If someone had said this before, they would definitely not believe it, but now... they had to believe it.

"In a few days, I plan to travel and visit some old friends. I will also go to the Nangong family..."

Xiao Yi looked at Nangong Liang and said.

Listening to Xiao Yi's words, Nangong Liang's heart moved, and he vaguely understood what he was going to do.

To win over the Nangong family?

However, this is a big matter, after all, it involves the Xuantian Sect and the Ximen Family.

The Ximen family is okay, but the Xuantian sect is extremely powerful.

Therefore, even he did not dare to promise anything, even though Xiao Chen was indeed a monster.

“Haha, I’m in the Nangong family, respectfully welcoming Senior Xiao.”

Nangong Liang thought for a moment and said with a smile.

"good."

Xiao Yi nodded and looked at Yang Mu again.

"In Feiyunfang...everything is up to the Sect Master."

Yang Mu was also an experienced man, so he could naturally understand what Xiao Yi meant.

In fact, there is no need for Ning Kejun to express her opinion. The fact that she called them all here this time is enough to show Ning Kejun's attitude.

From now on... Feiyunfang and Xiao Chen will definitely be in the same boat.

"hehe."

Xiao Yi smiled. Although Feiyunfang was only a second-rate force, it should not be underestimated.

Especially there are still quite a few top-level combat forces.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t have the confidence to come to the Xiao family!

Xiao Chen looked at Xiao Yi, a little speechless. I didn't say I was going back to the Xiao family. Do you have to use my name to win over people for the Xiao family?

However, he did not object. If the Xiao family was really led by his seventh uncle, he would naturally not watch the Xiao family being bullied.

Furthermore, the old fortune teller also told him to control the Xiao family as much as possible.

Although he would not become the patriarch of the Xiao family, there would not be much difference between Xiao Lin becoming the patriarch of the Xiao family and him being the patriarch.

Half an hour later, the dinner was over.

Xiao Lin stepped forward and arranged accommodation for Nangong Liang, Yang Mu and others.

"Will Xiao Chen return to the Xiao family?"

Suddenly, Nangong Liang asked.

Hearing Nangong Liang's words, Xiao Lin smiled and nodded: "Senior Nangong, that's for sure."

"If this is true, then the Xiao family and my Nangong family... need to interact more often."

Nangong Liang also laughed.

"Um?"

Xiao Lin was startled, and then thought of Nangong Ling.

"Is it because of Miss Nangong?"

"Um."

Nangong Liang nodded.

"She...is not just my third brother's female disciple."

Xiao Lin was stunned again. Could it be that he had another identity?

He wanted to ask, but Nangong Liang waved his hand, obviously not wanting to talk about it.

If Xiao Chen really wants to return to the Xiao family, maybe... the Xiao family and the Nangong family will form an alliance.

On the other side, Xiao Chen was also looking at Nangong Ling.

Nangong Ling is just a disciple of Nangong Bufan. Why would the Nangong family send a master like Nangong Liang to protect her?

He wanted to ask just now, but never had the chance.

"What are you looking at?"

Nangong Ling saw that Xiao Chen was staring at her, and...his eyes kept glancing at her chest, and she couldn't help but feel a little angry.

"Um, nothing, I'm just curious... Does Mr. Nangong have a high status in the Nangong family?"

Xiao Chen asked.

"He is the father of the current head of the Nangong family, what do you think?"

Nangong Ling replied coldly.

"ah?"

Xiao Chen was stunned. What the hell, Nangong Bufan is so powerful?
