Super Rich Fantasy: I Grow Stronger By Spending Money

342 The Xiao Clan’s Ancestor

The entire Jade City was paying attention to Xiao Mingyan’s movements. When they learned that he was leaving, some were happy, while others were not.

Xiao Mingyan announced his departure from the Xiao clan in public, and many were secretly delighted. They wanted to win Xiao Mingyan over, but he rejected all of them. If they could make such a powerful combat force be of use to them, they would be like a tiger that had grown wings and become the leader of all the clans in Jade City.

But at the same time, his existence was a threat to some people.

After all, Xiao Mingyan was really too strong. Although he had been a genius in the past, he was now standing at an even higher level. Not to mention that he had no rivals among his peers, and even the elders of the clans were melancholic that they were inferior.

The Fu clan had the most insignificant presence, but that didn’t mean they were weak.

“Xiao Mingyan leaving Jade City is also a good thing for us. No matter which clan’s olive branch he accepts, it will be a huge blow to the other clans.”

“Elder Fu, if you made a move, how much confidence do you have in dealing with him?”

Elder Fu shook his head, a look of shame on his face, “Back then, Xiao Mingyan didn’t use his full strength, so I can’t tell for sure. One thing is for sure, though, he is stronger than we imagined. I’m afraid that even I…”

He did not finish his sentence, but Clan Leader Fu already understood what he meant.

Elder Fu was the most powerful person in the Fu clan. If even he said so, Xiao Mingyan’s strength could be imagined.

“I’m afraid that only the ancestor can fight with him.”

Clan Leader Fu was extremely surprised. He didn’t expect Elder Fu to have such a high evaluation of Xiao Mingyan.

“Fortunately, he has left the Xiao clan. If such an enemy existed, I’m afraid he would cause a lot of trouble in the future.”

Clan Leader Fu couldn’t help but feel lucky that such a powerful and terrifying enemy wasn’t standing against the Fu clan. If Xiao Hong knew what he had done had caused the current situation, he would probably regret it so much that his intestines would turn green.

The Xiao clan was now suffering the consequences of their own actions. Xiao Hong was completely unable to handle the current situation, and it was a huge mess. The members of the Xiao clan no longer obeyed his orders because of this matter, and they even had the intention to depose him as the Clan Leader.

Xiao Hong’s position as the Clan Leader was in danger. It was said that the inner structures of the clan had fallen apart and their members were at each other’s throats, which alarmed the Xiao clan’s ancestor who was traveling outside. Only then had this been matter suppressed. Otherwise, no one knew how chaotic it would have become.

In the Xiao clan’s ancestral hall.

“Bastard!”

Along with the angry shout, Xiao Hong knelt on the ground in a sorry state, and even his back could no longer straighten. The person standing in front of him was the ancestor of the Xiao clan, Xiao Yi.

If he hadn’t been in seclusion in the secret realm and couldn’t be contacted by the outside world back then, someone would have informed him of everything on the day of the banquet, and he would have been able to rush over to settle things.

It was already too late to receive the news now. Things were almost out of control.

Xiao Yi’s face was livid, “I’ve only been out for a short time, and you’ve caused such a big mess for me. If I hadn’t come out of seclusion in time, the entire Xiao clan would have been destroyed in your hands, and our hundred-year foundation would have been unrooted in a day.”

Each of the four great clans had an ancestor in charge who usually cultivated in seclusion and would not appear unless there were important matters.

“I told you before not to dote on Liu Ruxue too much. Women are all femme fatale, but you didn’t listen. Now, it’s all because of this b*tch’s bewitchment that you did such a disgraceful thing.”

If Xiao Hong wasn’t his direct descendant, Xiao Yi would’ve slapped this unfilial grandson to death.

“You’re an utter failure and disappointment.”

Xiao Yi was flustered and exasperated. If this plan had succeeded, it would’ve been fine. But now, it had failed. Xiao Wuyou had not eliminated the roots of the problem and had given Xiao Mingyan a chance to make a comeback, which was why the Xiao clan had fallen to such a state.

Xiao Hong was dispirited, “I really know my mistake, ancestor…”

“What’s the use of knowing your mistakes?! Xiao Wuyou is now ruined, and Xiao Mingyan has fallen out with the Xiao clan. Now, you have no descendants to inherit your lineage, and outsiders are taking you as a laughing stock. I’m already so old, yet I still have to clean up your mess!”

Xiao Yi only hated himself for not receiving the news earlier. Otherwise, things would not have come to this.

Xiao Hong pursed his lips and wanted to say something, but he couldn’t spit out the words. His face was lifeless, and Xiao Yi was angry just looking at him.

“The most important thing right now is to make Xiao Mingyan change his mind. It’s all your fault for being too ruthless. To think you extracted his supreme dragon bone for Xiao Wuyou.”

In such cases, either one didn’t do it, or one should do it without leaving any traces so that no one could find any evidence. Xiao Yi had thought highly of Xiao Hong before, but he was completely disappointed in him after this incident.

“I’m willing to take on all the responsibility,” Xiao Hong said dispiritedly.

“How are you going to bear the responsibility? Even if you die thousands of times, you won’t be able to pay for it,” Xiao Yi snorted coldly.

“If the Xiao clan falls from grace, then even if you die a hundred times, it won’t be enough! Pass down my orders. Kill Liu Ruxue. As for Xiao Wuyou, he’s already a cripple, so just leave him to his death.”

Xiao Hong’s eyes widened, “Ancestor!”

“What? Are you going to plead for this b*tch?” Xiao Yi’s expression was ruthless as he looked at Xiao Hong coldly.

“If we don’t kill Liu Ruxue, how can we calm Xiao Mingyan’s anger? Never mind her, even you will have to go and kneel to beg for Xiao Mingyan’s forgiveness!”

With Xiao Mingyan’s strength, Xiao Yi would definitely not let him go so easily. Such a talent must belong to the Xiao clan. Otherwise, with such enmity, even if Xiao Mingyan no longer pursued the matter, Xiao Yi would still be worried. He had a longer vision than Xiao Hong.
