The Xiao family's residence is in a spacious courtyard.

Xiao Yu and Xiao Lan, brother and sister, ran out of their respective rooms and faced them head-on.

"Brother, I want to find Duan Lingtian!"

Xiao Lan was so anxious that her pretty face turned pale and she was in tears.

She heard the sound that came from the horizon clearly and realized that Duan Lingtian might be in danger.

"Let's go together."

Xiao Yu did not stop him and took Xiao Lan out of the compound, preparing to leave the Xiao family's mansion to find Duan Lingtian.

His sister was anxious, and he was equally anxious.

Duan Lingtian is also his friend.

Especially after Duan Lingtian came back this time, he gained the attention of His Majesty the Emperor of Chixiao Kingdom and his future is bright.

He knew that behind all this, Duan Lingtian had a lot of contributions.

Therefore, he was very grateful to Duan Lingtian.

"Wait for me!"

As soon as Xiao Yu and Xiao Lan left the courtyard, they heard a rush of sound coming from behind them.

But it was Xiao Xun who came after hearing the news.

However, the three of them were stopped before they even left the Xiao family's residence.

The person who stopped them was the patriarch of the Xiao family.

"I know you are worried about Duan Lingtian... But if you go here, not only will you not be able to help, you may even suffer misfortune! Therefore, as children of the Xiao family, you cannot leave the Xiao family now."

The patriarch of the Xiao family said solemnly with a solemn expression.

"Clan leader, Duan Lingtian is our friend."

Xiao Yu's words were very simple, and his tone was filled with incomparable determination.

"good!"

Xiao Xun also said.

"Precisely because he is your friend... At this time, you can't help if you go there, it will only hinder him."

The patriarch of the Xiao family said again.

Xiao Yu and Xiao Xun were silent for a moment after hearing this.

Only Xiao Lan took a lot of steps, bypassed the Xiao family patriarch, and headed outside the Xiao family mansion.

This scene was beyond everyone's expectations.

"Xiao Lan, I know your affection for Duan Lingtian... However, if you insist on stepping out of the door of my Xiao family's residence today, you will no longer be a member of my Xiao family!"

The patriarch of the Xiao family said in a deep voice.

The origin of the strong man who came to bring bad luck to Duan Lingtian is unknown, but since he dared to say something to kill all the 'Peeping Void Realm Warriors' in the Imperial City of the Chixiao Kingdom, it shows that his strength is not weak.

Ordinary people would avoid such an existence, so how could they dare to join in the fun?

If Xiao Lan went to Duan Lingtian with his identity as a child of the Xiao family and accidentally offended that powerful man, wouldn't it be possible that the Xiao family would also suffer disaster?

The Xiao family cannot afford to gamble!

As the patriarch of the Xiao family, he has to think about the Xiao family.

"Then I, Xiao Lan, will no longer be a member of the Xiao family from now on!"

When Xiao Lan heard the words of the patriarch of the Xiao family, he didn't even look back, and his cold and casual voice came out.

The patriarch of the Xiao family couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Lan'er..."

Xiao Yu gritted his teeth and stepped out, wanting to catch up.

"Xiao Yu, do you want to be like your sister and break away from our 'Xiao Family'?"

Seeing Xiao Yu's actions, the Xiao family patriarch's expression changed drastically.

It doesn't matter that Xiao Lan left the Xiao family.

But Xiao Yu is the "hope" of the Xiao family. He is extremely talented. Now he has gained the attention of His Majesty the Emperor. He is expected to achieve great success in the future.

He had even planned to betroth his daughter to Xiao Yu and train Xiao Yu to become the next generation leader of the Xiao family.

But now, Xiao Yu is going to take risks!

"Patriarch, thank you for your continued care... However, I cannot ignore the safety of my sister and my friends! If I don't walk out of the Xiao family's mansion today, I will be a brother and a friend in vain."

Xiao Yu had a determined look on his face and stepped out with a rainbow of momentum.

"Xiao Yu, wait..."

Xiao Xun was infected by Xiao Yu and wanted to follow him.

However, before he took a step or finished his words, he saw the patriarch of the Xiao family take action and knocked Xiao Yu unconscious.

"Clan leader, how could you do this!"

Xiao Xun's expression changed drastically and he asked in a deep voice.

"snort!"

The patriarch of the Xiao family glanced at Xiao Xun and said calmly: "Xiao Xun, do you also want to imitate Xiao Yu? Don't blame me for not reminding you. If you dare to go out of this gate, you will lie down like Xiao Yu!"

"I really don't know what you juniors think. You know that there are tigers in the mountains, but you prefer to go to the tiger mountains!"

When he talked about it later, he looked like he hated iron.

Xiao Xun smiled bitterly. He knew that the clan leader could do what he said. He could only hope in his heart that nothing would happen to Duan Lingtian and Xiao Lan.

"Don't worry! As long as Xiao Lan doesn't get into trouble, what I just said will be invalid and will not count... She is still a descendant of my Xiao family."

The last words of the Xiao family patriarch made Xiao Xun's expression soften a bit.

at the same time.

Royal Palace.

call!

A beautiful figure rushed out from a luxurious palace, and wherever it passed, a fragrant breeze swept up.

"Princess...Princess, wait for me!"

Behind him, a palace maid chased him until she was out of breath.

"Nothing will happen to you...nothing will happen to you!"

The person running in front was none other than the 'Princess Baguio' of the royal family of the Chixiao Kingdom.

At this moment, Princess Baguio's pretty face turned pale, her watery autumn eyes were full of eagerness, she wished she could put on a pair of wings and fly directly to that man's house.

And now, high in the sky in the middle of the imperial city of Chixiao Kingdom...

The three figures are like three gods, stepping on the clouds.

suddenly.

Whoosh!

A graceful and noble figure immediately rose into the air, hovering above the clouds and mist, looking at an old man in green clothes in the distance.

"Elder Ming!"

This is a beautiful woman. There is a bit of solemnity in the beautiful woman's voice, "Is there any misunderstanding between you and Duan Lingtian?"

The beautiful woman is none other than ‘Qin Xiang’.

The former peak master of the Seven-Star Sword Sect's Yaoguang Peak had reached the 'fifth level of the Void Realm' with his cultivation.

In the past, in the Seven Star Sword Sect, in terms of strength, she was only inferior to the sect leader ‘Linghu Jinhong’, the sect protector ‘Peng Lao’ and the two guardian elders.

Just now, she heard Elder Ming calling 'Duan Lingtian' by name, and thought that Elder Ming wanted to find Duan Lingtian and protect him so that Duan Lingtian would not be found by the people from the Three Qinglin Sects...

After all, Duan Lingtian is the ‘hope’ of the Seven Star Sword Sect.

To avenge the Seven Star Sword Sect and even revive the Seven Star Sword Sect, Duan Lingtian is indispensable.

However, not long after she took off into the sky, she heard the words behind 'Elder Ming' again.

At that moment, the surprise on her face completely disappeared.

Elder Ming was not here to protect Duan Lingtian, but to cause trouble for Duan Lingtian!

She was puzzled and thought there was some misunderstanding.

"Xiang girl."

The old man in green, who was Elder Ming ‘Zhao Ming’, one of the two guardians of the Seven Star Sword Sect in the past, was also a little surprised to see Qin Xiang appear.
