Days passed by.
On this day, Xiao Zhan went out to handle family business. On his way back, he was bored and opened the Eye of Destiny to detect things.
I thought I would return empty-handed again, but to my surprise, I saw a golden sky in the distance.
"Such a terrifying phenomenon! No, it doesn't seem to be a phenomenon!"
Xiao Zhan quickly closed his Eye of Luck and looked at the sky again. Sure enough, it was the same as the other places.
Only when the Eye of Fortune is opened will that sky reveal its golden hue.
The result is obvious!
There is a child of immense destiny!
"Hehehe, let this old man go and take a look!"
Xiao Zhan immediately changed his flight direction.
......
"Get lost. And don't ever say you're from the Meng family when you go out, or you'll be in big trouble if bad rumors start circulating!"
Several servants casually threw a girl out the gate.
The girl fell to the ground in pain, her eyes filled with endless coldness as she stared intently at the group of people.
"Oh ho, you dare to glare at us? Well then, let's teach you a lesson first, so you won't forget!"
Several servants began punching and kicking the girl with ill intent.
The girl silently endured it, her small hands clenched tightly. She knew that if she dared to resist, the other party would beat her even more fiercely.
"Tch~ Boring, like a dead man, doesn't utter a sound, get lost!"
Having heard no screams or pleas for mercy, the group grew bored.
Isn't bullying others just about satisfying your inner guilt? If you don't get a response, you don't want to waste your energy anymore; it's like hitting a rock.
The girl staggered to her feet and dragged her weary body away into the distance.
Xiao Zhan, who was secretly observing, also confirmed the identity of the chosen one.
"This time it's actually a girl? Her luck is comparable to Hao'er's... but her appearance..."
Xiao Zhan was puzzled. He glanced at the Meng family, which seemed to be a first-class family.
Just like that, they abandoned a terrifying chosen one?
Despite his doubts, Xiao Zhan dared not act rashly, lest the Meng family deliberately train this girl in this way.
If he were to intervene and abduct the other party, he wouldn't be able to defeat the powerful figures from the Meng family.
"Let's take another look..."
Xiao Zhan decided to play it safe.
So he secretly continued to follow the girl.
For several days in a row.
The girl suffered all sorts of difficulties and bullying here, but the Meng family remained indifferent, and Xiao Zhan did not notice that the Meng family had sent people to watch her.
"Hehe, since you don't want this, then my Xiao family will gladly accept it."
Xiao Zhan grinned, surprised by the unexpected gain he had made during his trip.
The cautious man did not choose to make his move here, but instead used a force to guide the girl out of the city.
After walking for about several dozen miles, the girl completely lost consciousness.
Xiao Zhan reacted quickly, hooking onto the other person and running away.
Hehehe, got it!
He took the girl on a tour of several cities, and then chose the furthest route back to the Xiao family.
“Now even if they didn’t really abandon her, it’s no longer up to them. Once she’s entered the Xiao family, she’s a member of the Xiao family.”
Xiao Zhan breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking at the girl covered in injuries, Xiao Zhan first had the maid take her to wash her body, and then he applied medicine to treat her wounds.
All that's left is to wait for the other person to wake up and then brainwash them.
Hehe... um... I look like a villain like this...
Xiao Zhan fell into deep thought.
The next day.
"Um..."
The girl opened her eyes blankly, staring at the unfamiliar ceiling in a daze.
It took her a moment to come to her senses that she was lying in bed, and she pulled back the covers in alarm to check her body.
Finding no signs of damage, I breathed a sigh of relief.
Where is this?
The girl murmured to herself.
At that moment, a maid pushed open the door and entered.
"You're awake? I'll go and call the master over right now."
Before the girl could ask anything, the maid ran off in a flash.
Every now and then, the girl saw an adult man walk in.
This is naturally Xiao Zhan. His breakthrough in cultivation has also extended his lifespan considerably, so he is still very young.
"How are you feeling? Is there anything else that's bothering you?"
Xiao Zhan pulled up a chair and sat down on the edge of the bed.
"Yes, I'm almost fully recovered. Did you save me?"
The girl asked.
Her injuries weren't too serious. After taking some healing pills and applying some topical medicine, she recovered in just one day.
“That’s right. I was out at the time and saw you unconscious in the wilderness, so I brought you back to the Xiao family.”
Xiao Zhan said without batting an eye.
"The Xiao family..."
The girl seemed to be recalling unpleasant memories, and her expression showed some pain.
Xiao Zhan naturally knew what was going on, but he didn't know the details, so he wanted to find out. He pretended to be puzzled and asked, "What? Did something bad happen? Tell me, maybe I can help."
The girl hesitated for a moment before beginning to tell her story.
Xiao Zhan listened attentively.
Roughly speaking, the girl's mother was the apple of the Kong family's eye, while her father was the heir of the Meng family.
The Kong family is a second-rate family, and one that is about to become a first-rate family, while the Meng family has only recently become a first-rate family.
For the sake of the family's interests, the Kong family arranged for his mother to marry into the Meng family, which would provide them with a powerful backer and ensure their stable advancement into a first-class family.
But this was just wishful thinking on the part of the Kong family; the Meng family had always been planning to gradually devour the Kong family's prize.
After the marriage alliance, the Meng family outwardly appeared to be helping the Kong family expand their business, but in reality, they were secretly taking over everything the Kong family owned. During this time, they even poisoned the Kong family's supreme elder.
By the time the Kong family discovered this, it was already too late, and in the end, everything the Kong family owned was swallowed up by the Meng family.
His mother died at the hands of the Meng family for resisting.
The girl had only been born a short time then, and the Meng family, out of consideration for the fact that she was still a member of the Meng family bloodline, raised her for six years.
It's less about raising them and more about treating them like dogs, summoning them at will and dismissing them at will. They also suffered various forms of bullying from the other servants in the Meng family.
What happened next was just as Xiao Zhan had seen: the Meng family thought she was unlucky and kicked the girl out of the house.
So what are your plans next?
Xiao Zhan asked.
"I have no idea..."
The girl had her head down.
"If you're willing, how about becoming a member of my Xiao family?"
Xiao Zhan's true intentions were revealed.
"Would you be willing to take me in...?"
The girl's eyes shone with hope.
"Yes, from now on you are a member of the Xiao family, no longer a member of the Meng family."
Xiao Zhan nodded.
"Alright, from now on, Nannan will be a member of the Xiao family."
The girl said happily.
"Nannan? Is that your name?"
Xiao Zhan asked.
“I gave myself this name. I don’t have a name in the Meng family. They all call me ‘stinky girl.’”
The girl looked dejected.
"From now on, you will be called Xiao Nannan. Don't look down on my Xiao family, which is only a second-rate family now and cannot compare with the Meng family. I believe that it will not be long before our Xiao family surpasses the Meng family."
"If you want revenge, I will train you to become a capable person, and then the Xiao family will be your backer."
Xiao Zhan spoke up.
"But they all say I have no talent for cultivation..."
Xiao Zhan was somewhat surprised. With such terrifying luck, how come you have no talent for cultivation?!
Impossible! Absolutely impossible!
Either they're seeing things, or you haven't awakened your cultivation talent yet.
No one understands the Chosen One better than me!
