Chapter 618 - 618 Must Forge Good Relations with

Chapter 618: Chapter 618: Must Forge Good Relations with the Li Family [The 25th Update] Chapter 618: Chapter 618: Must Forge Good Relations with the Li Family [The 25th Update] Nangong Xuan frowned, standing still. He did not understand the implication behind his own words.

Not to provoke Li Xiaoyao? What did that fellow have besides the identity of the Li Family’s young master?

If it was merely a matter of identity, Nangong Feng was not afraid.

“I presume you’re also going to the Hui Country Secret Realm. We’ll meet there then. At that time, I will let you know that identity is merely your amulet. If you want to compete with me for a woman, you’ll have to rely on your fists.”

…

As soon as Nangong Ling’er and Li Xiaoyao walked out of the airport, she immediately let go of his hand, blushing shyly with her head lowered.

Li Xiaoyao looked on, wanting to laugh. This girl, usually so quiet and shy, had just used him as a shield to get away from Nangong Feng, which quite surprised Li Xiaoyao.

...

And now, away from Nangong Feng, she immediately reverted to the appearance of a serene young girl.

“So, Nangong Feng wants to marry you?” Stepping onto the plane, Li Xiaoyao pulled out a cigarette, lit it, and casually asked.

Nangong Ling’er shook her head repeatedly: “I won’t marry him. I don’t like him.”

“But from the way he spoke, his status in the Nangong Family seems rather extraordinary.”

“He’s the great-grandson of the second family elder,” Nangong Ling’er said. “My father is the current Family Head, and his father is an Elder in the clan. Though his status is not low, if he wants to propose, he still needs my consent. My father respects my wishes a lot.”

“Oh? Your father seems quite admirable.” Closing the cabin door, Li Xiaoyao abruptly changed the subject, asking, “What do you know about the Hui Country Secret Realm?”

“The Hui Country Secret Realm…” Nangong Ling’er sat on the couch, tilted her head to think for a bit, then shook her head: “Not much. I only know that some Elders seem to have been injured. And I’ve heard that the Secret Realm has attracted many forces. The Eight Great Sects of Xuan Country have all sent people there, and almost all have suffered some damage. Other countries have sent many people too. It’s very dangerous there now.”

“Indeed very dangerous.” Li Xiaoyao nodded in agreement.

The Eight Great Sects of Xuan Country, various powers from all around the world, all flocking to the Hui Country Secret Realm – this alone showed the allure of the Secret Realm. And a place that could draw so many powerful families and forces was definitely not ordinary. If someone told Li Xiaoyao that there were all sorts of powerful demon beasts there, he would believe it.

Two private jets took off almost simultaneously from Abu Dhabi International Airport. The one lagging behind belonged to the Nangong Clan.

The interior of the plane was luxuriously decorated, and in one of the conference rooms sat a dozen people, among them sat Nangong Xuan prominently.

“You encountered Li Xiaoyao at the airport?” The one who spoke was Nangong Tuo, the Fourth Elder of the Nangong Family.

Nangong Xuan nodded: “Yes, Ling’er and he are heading to Greece together.”

“Ling’er went with him?” Someone immediately raised an eyebrow and slammed the table: “Ridiculous!”

Nangong Tuo coughed and asked, “Aside from Li Xiaoyao, who else did the Li Family send?”

“I only saw Li Xiaoyao alone.” Nangong Xuan was also helpless. His sister might seem gentle and frail, but when she became stubborn, not even nine bulls could pull her back.

“The Li Family has suffered a greater loss than ours this time. Aside from Li Xiaoyao, they must have dispatched many elite members,” Nangong Tuo spoke while thinking, saying, “The Ancestral Elder once instructed us to establish good relations with the Li Family. Although he did not elaborate, he probably saw potential in Li Xiaoyao.”

“Hmph, what potential does that lad even have? He just got lucky and killed a few people in the Human Realm, that’s all!” a balding man said dismissively.

Nangong Tuo slightly shook his head, “Haven’t you seen who he killed in the Human Realm?”

“Those were the top geniuses of the Eight Great Sects from Xuan Country, yet they fell to his hands like chickens and dogs, easily crushed. This strength, among the younger generation of the entire Eight Great Sects of Xuan Country, has no equal.”

Since the news from the Human Realm had come back, Nangong Tuo had been closely investigating the specific events that happened in the Human Realm that day.

When he learned that Li Xiaoyao, alone, slaughtered the top disciples of the Eight Great Sects from Xuan Country, such as those from Hehuan Sect and Da Lin Temple, as easily as slaughtering chickens and dogs, his shock was indescribable.

The Eight Great Sects of Xuan Country had stood for so many years, and even if one sect was more powerful than the others, it wouldn’t be by much. This balance caused each generation of sect members to not stand out too much, or be too weak.

However, Li Xiaoyao was an anomaly; he was much too strong for a Cultivator of his age.

Not only did he butcher his peers, the top geniuses, as if slaughtering chickens and dogs, but even when facing Elders of that level, he could withstand several moves. In the end, it was only through the joint efforts of several major families that he was defeated.

But even so, Li Xiaoyao still survived in the end.

Even the proudest geniuses of the Eight Great Sects of Xuan Country had to admire and sigh in inferiority after learning of Li Xiaoyao’s feats.

“Issue the order, once the plane lands, everyone must treat members of the Li Family with courtesy,” Nangong Tuo believed that if he represented the Nangong Family to form an alliance with the Li Family, the latter would definitely not refuse.

After all, outside the Human Realm that day, the Nangong Family was the only one willing to lend a helping hand.

“Fourth Elder, by doing this, aren’t we taking them too seriously? Our Nangong Family is on a par with the Li Family, even if we were to ally with them, we don’t need to be so humble,” someone complained.

Nangong Tuo said, “This isn’t being humble, this is extending a friendly hand. The Li Family is a friend of our Nangong Family, and this is how friends should be treated.”

“But…”

“This time, I will lead the team. My command is as good as the Clan Leader’s command, do you understand?” Nangong Tuo’s gaze hardened, he would not allow any minor actions of these people to lead to dissatisfaction from Li Xiaoyao, and possibly jeopardize the alliance between the two families.

“Understood.” There were many reluctant tones in these voices.

Nangong Tuo didn’t care whether they were willing or not; such matters should always prioritize the bigger picture. If he had to consider their feelings in everything, what was the point of his presence?

“Xuan’er,” Nangong Tuo looked at Nangong Xuan, “after getting off the plane, pay close attention to see if there is a woman from the Li Family wearing a cyan dress. If so, report to me immediately.”

“Yes, Fourth Elder!” Nangong Xuan nodded in response.

“A woman in a cyan dress?”

“Is the Fourth Elder referring to that young woman who struck down Da Lin Temple and saved Li Xiaoyao in the Human Realm that day?”

“Indeed, it’s her!” Nangong Tuo nodded slightly, he too was very interested in this mysterious woman.

If she could defeat the Human Realm Guardian of the Da Lin Temple in one strike, this woman’s cultivation level must have reached an extremely terrifying stage. If she were to come this time, then the Nangong Family would have virtually nothing to worry about.
