Xiao Family.
“Young Master Han, the Family Head instructed that if you return, please visit the council hall,” said the Guardian upon seeing Su Han come back.
“I understand.”
Su Han nodded, first went back to his room to put down the Spirit Stones, and then headed to the council hall.
He paid no mind to Liang Shaohui and the others; if it wasn’t for the marketplace being too noisy with too many people, he, Su Han, would have taken action first.
Upon arriving at the council hall, many people were already seated there.
(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})
Su Yun Ming was sitting just below Xiao Hengshan, in a very forward position, which showed how courteous Xiao Hengshan was to Su Han and his son nowadays. In the past, this was the seat of Lian Chong, the Xiao Family’s first Guest Elder.
“Young Master Han has returned?”
“Ha ha, we’ve been waiting just for you. Come, take a seat.”
“Looking at Young Master Han’s aura, it seems like there’s been another breakthrough?”
Seeing Su Han walk in, the people of the Xiao Family all showed smiles, with a tinge of flattery in their words.
What a joke, if they were to offend Su Han now, they’d be a bunch of idiots.
“Su Han, come, sit next to me,” Xiao Hengshan called out to Su Han with a wave of his hand, smiling.
There were two seats beside him; one was occupied by the expressionless Xiao Yuhui, and the other was naturally prepared for Su Han.
As for Xiao Yuran, she couldn’t cultivate, and she generally didn’t attend the family meetings.
Su Han didn’t hesitate and took his seat there.
“Today, I’ve called everyone here not for anything else, but to instruct you to inform those below, the Cold Cloud Sect’s annual recruitment of disciples is about to begin, and the flow of people in Yuanshan County has increased much more than in the past. Many are from other County Cities, and according to my investigation, there are even some from the County Cities.”
“We understand what the Family Head means.”
(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})
Lian Chong said, “We will restrain our people and be more cautious in our actions during this time.”
“Mm.”
Xiao Hengshan nodded, then continued, “According to intelligence, among those who have come this time, there are four forces we cannot afford to offend.”
The others quietly waited for Xiao Hengshan’s follow-up.
“These four forces are the Leng Family from Nan Qing County City, the Hu Family from Huang’an County City, the Yang Family from Ming Sea County City, and the Liang Family from Yunyang County City.”
At this point, Xiao Hengshan paused, then continued, “The Leng Family, Hu Family, and Yang Family are all large families with immense power in their respective County Cities, not something Yuanshan County can compare to. As for the Liang Family, they are not too formidable in Yunyang County City, but within the Liang Family, there’s someone who is an Elder of Inner Sect at the Cold Cloud Sect, so if you can avoid provoking them, it’s better not to.”
“We understand.”
The people below spoke up.
They often encountered such matters, since the Cold Cloud Sect recruiting disciples yearly was a common occurrence in Yuanshan County, and they had grown accustomed to it.
This meeting’s primary purpose… was actually for Su Han.
Although Su Han had talent, his character was too proud, and Xiao Hengshan couldn’t say it directly to him, which is why he thought of this method.
“Well then, since you all know, go and instruct those below not to let your people…”
(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})
“I have already offended him.”
Xiao Hengshan hadn’t finished speaking when a calm voice suddenly came from the side.
“Hm?”
Hearing this, everyone looked over at Su Han.
“Su Han, what do you mean by this?” Xiao Hengshan asked.
“Just now I went to the Myriad Treasures Pavilion and happened to run into Liang Shaohui from the Liang Family. We had a little conflict, but no hands were thrown,” Su Han said.
Su Yun Ming next to him couldn’t help but smile bitterly. How could he not realize that this meeting from the Xiao Family was actually held for him and his son? He didn’t expect that his good son had already offended Liang Shaohui before this.
“What conflict arose?”
“Young Master Su Han, you…”
“Alas, I was afraid this might happen. Such an incident has never occurred before!”
The people below were all speaking, clearly dissatisfied with Su Han for offending Liang Shaohui.
Before Su Han and his son arrived, the Xiao Family had never offended anyone from the County City, but as soon as they came, they brought trouble to the Xiao Family.
(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})
“Fortunately, it’s the Liang Family they’ve offended, not one of the other Three Great Families.”
Lian Chong said, “But it’s still somewhat troublesome. Although the young lady is an Elder of the Inner Sect at the Cold Cloud Sect, the Liang Family is, after all, from Yunyang County City and is much stronger than our Xiao Family.”
“What caused the conflict?” Xiao Hengshan frowned.
“You’ll find out soon enough.”
Su Han stood up and slowly walked towards the exit of the hall.
“If there’s nothing else, then I’ll be on my way.”
The crowd watched Su Han’s retreating figure, their brows furrowed in displeasure.
You drag my Xiao Family into trouble and act as if nothing’s amiss?
“Gentlemen, my apologies, Han’er just has this kind of personality.”
Su Yunming also stood up, pondering, “However, I believe that Han’er wouldn’t have provoked that Liang Shaohui without reason. There must be more to it.”
With that, Su Yunming also left the hall.
“What reason could there be? Isn’t it just that this guy is too arrogant?”
(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})
“Hmph, no wonder the Su Family kicked him out. Anyone who takes in such a troublemaker is asking for bad luck,” a large group of people muttered in the hall.
…
In his room, Su Han held a Low-Grade Spirit Stone in his hand.
The Surface of the Low-Grade Spirit Stone shimmered with light, and faint traces of Spiritual Energy emanated from it, not dispersing but being absorbed spontaneously.
Spirit Stones are inherently capable of continuously absorbing nature’s spiritual energy before eventually coalescing together. If this Low-Grade Spirit Stone were preserved for hundreds of years, it’s highly likely that it would transform into a Mid-Grade Spirit Stone.
“This is far inferior to what I used in my previous life. Not to mention Holy Crystals, just Immortal and Divine Crystals, even the least valuable ones would be comparable to millions of this kind of Spirit Stone,” Su Han shook his head.
This Spirit Stone, so precious to others, was something he hardly esteemed.
“But there’s no helping it given the circumstances. I’ll just have to make do with what I have for now.”
With a wry smile, Su Han took a deep breath as the Dragon Vein Emperor Technique began to circulate.
“Boom!”
The moment the Dragon Vein Emperor Technique began to operate, the Low-Grade Spirit Stone in his hand exploded, releasing a tremendous burst of Spiritual Power.
In comparison to nature’s spiritual energy, which was like a flowing stream, the Spiritual Energy contained within the Spirit Stone was like surging waves.
(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})
“Not bad at all.”
Su Han’s eyes flickered as Dragon Qi burst forth from his body, forming a Light Barrier that enveloped all of the released Spiritual Energy, preventing any of it from dispersing.
“Just this one Spirit Stone could probably open three to five more Meridians in my body, but the more I progress, the more Spiritual Energy is required.”
Under Su Han’s absorption, the astonishing Spiritual Energy quickly flooded into his body from all directions.
“Boom, boom, boom!”
In the blink of an eye, two hours passed.
Three muffled sounds emanated from within Su Han’s body, followed by the sudden eruption of three dazzling beams of light!
“Forty-eight now!”
A smile curled on Su Han’s lips as he sensed the participating Spiritual Energy within his body, murmuring, “With what’s left, I can open one more!”
