Amidst much anticipation, the first person to be invited to Wanjiao's live stream after a long hiatus was born: a nearly 100-year-old man with striking silver hair.
Of the viewers in the live stream, perhaps not 100%, but over 95% recognized the old man – Xuanyuan Longyuan, the seventh-ranked top family in the Sheng Kingdom, whose lineage can be traced back five or six thousand years.
Such a large family has a large population. According to incomplete statistics, the Xuanyuan family has a population of at least five hundred.
As the current patriarch of the Xuanyuan family, Xuanyuan Longyuan is a person of noble status and is respected wherever he goes. Now, his sudden appearance in Wan Jiao's live broadcast room as a person with a special connection has completely activated the gossip of netizens.
[Host, host, quickly ask this patriarch of the Xuanyuan family what he wants to be valued for!]
Netizens are watching the drama unfold online, eagerly awaiting the biggest revelation.
As far as I know, nine out of ten wealthy families have secrets. I'd love to hear about the secrets of the Xuanyuan family online, preferably the unspeakable kind, hehe~~~
[...]
Amidst the flurry of comments, Xuan Yuanlongyuan spoke up.
"Half-immortal, this old man wishes to divine how long the prosperity of my Xuanyuan family will last, but I wonder..."
Before Xuanyuan Longyuan could finish speaking, Wan Jiao's expression darkened slightly, and she said with regret, "The Xuanyuan family is one of the major families of our Shengxia nation that has lasted for thousands of years. Logically speaking, it should continue for thousands of generations."
Wan Jiao's words seemed to contain an element of unspoken words.
Every time this happens, there's a miraculous twist.
Xuanyuan Longyuan knew that the number of viewers in the live stream had been approaching 20 million, and so did the viewers.
The comment section was filled with the message "[Seeking follow-up]", and Xuan Yuanlongyuan spoke up again, "Wan Banxian, you may speak your mind without reservation."
Wan Jiao sighed, "The prosperity of a family depends on the efforts of everyone in the family. Harmony in the family is essential for everything to go well. If someone is outwardly compliant but inwardly defiant, shameless, and engages in promiscuous relationships, then..."
Wan Jiao stopped there.
Having lived for 98 years, Xuan Yuanlongyuan was a man of great experience. After Wan Jiao finished speaking, a thought flashed through his mind, and his old face turned red. "Half-Immortal Wan, is it possible to resolve such an embarrassing situation?"
Wan Jiao nodded, "Of course I can, but it depends on whether you can be ruthless enough."
This generation of netizens are all "learned" people; what kind of scenes haven't they seen?
Whether it was Wan Jiao's words or Xuan Yuan Long Yuan's flushed face, it was enough to show that the Xuan Yuan family definitely had some unknown, juicy, and incredibly juicy gossip.
[I smell something unspeakable. I just want to ask, is this scandal big enough to fit in the live stream?]
[Shouldn't it fit? There are so many people, the authorities will probably just stand by and do nothing.]
[...]
Amidst the heated discussion among netizens, Xuanyuan Longyuan spoke again as if he had made up his mind, "Half-Immortal, please enlighten me."
Wan Jiao gave an ambiguous "hmm," then raised her hand and, without any attempt to hide it from the millions of viewers in the live stream, began to calculate.
In an instant!
Wan Jiao stopped her divination and said to Xuan Yuanlongyuan, "There's no time like the present. Go to the back garden of the Xuan Yuan family's old residence now; that's the best time to resolve this matter."
backyard?
In the garden?
These words made Xuan Yuanlongyuan's face turn even redder and uglier.
The raging anger in his chest had reached an uncontrollable point. He secretly vowed that no matter who was in the garden, he would show no mercy and would prioritize the prosperity of his family.
…
Although Xuanyuan Longyuan was quite old, it must be said that he was incredibly agile. In just a few minutes, he arrived at the garden in the backyard of the Xuanyuan family's old residence.
The flowers are in full bloom this season.
A gentle breeze carries the sweet fragrance of flowers, which is very refreshing.
But the thought that such a beautiful environment could contain such an unfilial son of the Xuanyuan family who was oblivious to his own mortality made Xuanyuan Longyuan lose all interest in appreciating anything.
He gripped his phone tightly and asked Wan Jiao again, slowly and deliberately, "Wan Jiao, I can't see anything for the time being."
When Xuanyuan Longyuan spoke, he turned the camera around so that Wanjiao and the viewers in the live stream could clearly see everything in the garden.
Wan Jiao's eyes were truly extraordinary.
She immediately saw the mystery behind it, and at the same time blushed with embarrassment.
It's... an eyesore.
She was a dignified person, and seeing such an unbearable scene was truly unbearable for her!
"The person is inside. If you can't see anything, order your men to search for him. You should get results soon."
For anything else, Xuanyuan Longyuan would have already sent people in to investigate. But he was truly too embarrassed to give such an order for something so shameful.
Xuanyuan Longyuan remained silent and did not speak.
Wan Jiao wasn't in a hurry; she simply and calmly looked away.
She didn't want to look at that kind of scene for even a second longer.
Yeah, bad luck.
Neither the streamer Wan Jiao nor the person she was connected with, Xuan Yuanlongyuan, spoke, but the viewers in the live stream chat kept sending messages.
[I have sharp eyes! I actually spotted someone laughing and groaning in the flower bushes! Help! The wealthy are truly wealthy; every woman they see has a top-tier figure.]
[I think I saw it too, right at the ten o'clock position of Grandpa Xuanyuan. They really know how to play, damn, I'm getting a little excited watching it.]
[Haha, this is exactly what I imagined a wealthy family to be like. It's amazing! I hope this story gets even bigger, and that it involves the inheritance drama.]
[The person upstairs has watched too many novels and TV dramas. As far as I know, heirs in the real world are very protective of their reputation.]
Holy crap, look, they seem to have... changed their... "position"...
That's why people say this generation of netizens are all famous detectives, like Sherlock Holmes.
Xuanyuan Longyuan stared at the comments for a minute or two, and actually saw a man and a woman... in the flower bushes.
The woman was someone Xuan Yuanlongyuan knew very well; she was his great-granddaughter-in-law, 20 years old this year, and had just married his youngest great-grandson, Xuan Yuanji, last month.
The man had his back to Xuan Yuanlongyuan, so it was impossible to tell who he was. However, Xuan Yuanlongyuan was determined to find out, so he quickly walked into the flower bushes.
Xuanyuan Longyuan's commotion was quite significant. The man and woman, who were enjoying themselves, sensed someone entering. One was startled, and the other turned pale.
Before the matter was even over, the man hastily distanced himself from the woman. He was about to scold whoever had intruded and disturbed his good time when he saw Xuan Yuanlongyuan's face, which showed more shock than anger.
The man saw Xuanyuan Longyuan, and Xuanyuan Longyuan naturally saw him as well.
Their eyes met.
Xuanyuan Longyuan felt as if he had been struck by lightning, completely overwhelmed.
Because... the person who did that kind of shameful thing with his great-granddaughter-in-law was none other than Xuanyuan Longyuan's most favored family heir, his beloved grandson, the 35-year-old young master of the Xuanyuan family—Xuanyuan Jin.
