"Understood, brat." Yao Lao said angrily.
In the small forest behind Xiao's house, three well-dressed men are as straight as pine trees.
Seeing Xiao Zhan and his party coming, the leader, a taciturn middle-aged man, stepped forward and cupped his hands at Xiao Zhan: "Patriarch Xiao, Master Gu Hua, they will be here soon, please wait patiently, Patriarch Xiao."
"No problem." Xiao Zhan nodded to the man.Immediately without saying a word, he stood with his hands behind his back, closed his eyes and meditated.
In the mountains some distance away.
"Hehe, one Dou Huang and two Dou Wang were dispatched just to fight in front of the battle. It seems that the battle is not small." Yao Lao looked at the three well-dressed men on the field and said.
"Teacher, what if there is a strong Dou Zun coming over later? Will we be exposed?" Xiao Yan asked curiously.
"Hey, what is Dou Zun, you have to believe in the strength of being a teacher. Thinking about being a teacher back then..." Yao Lao was about to refute Xiao Yan, but suddenly raised his eyebrows and said: "Shut up, there is a situation."
As he spoke, an illusory and distorted white flame came out from the black robe and covered Xiao Yan's whole body in the blink of an eye.
The space energy on the top of the mountain suddenly became active, and the three well-dressed men seemed to sense something, and took a step forward.Although Xiao Zhan and his party didn't know what to send, they also leaned over.
The originally peaceful and picturesque space on the top of the mountain suddenly began to tremble violently, and suddenly a gap appeared, and then the gap became bigger and bigger.
"Boom" as if a mirror was shattered, a wide hole suddenly opened, and a group of people jumped out, and then the hole behind everyone quickly closed, as if nothing had happened.
This group of people suddenly appeared, there were about a dozen of them, all dressed in black robes.The leader, a majestic middle-aged man in white clothes, and a little girl with pink make-up and jade in his arms are particularly eye-catching.
Xiao Zhan and his party looked at the group of people in front of them in shock, and murmured in their hearts: "This is the strong man from the distant Zhongzhou, this is the strength of the ancient clan."
"Tearing the space, at least a strong Dou Zong can do it." Xiao Yan looked at the middle-aged man in white and said.
"The middle-aged man in the lead should be a Dou Zun strongman, at least a five-star Dou Zun. Don't talk, be careful to be discovered." Yao Lao said solemnly, and the white flames covering the robe became more and more transparent. .
"Master Gu Hua." The three well-dressed men hurried forward and said respectfully.
"Well, you have worked hard." Gu Hua nodded casually, and then put the beautiful girl in his arms on the ground.
Then he said with a very respectful attitude, "Miss Xun'er, we are here. You have been tired in the one month you rushed here from Zhongzhou."
"It's okay, Elder Guhua, Xun'er is not tired." The girl named Xun'er said obediently without any airs.
Seeing this, Gu Hua smiled without surprise, got up and looked at Xiao Zhan and his party.
"Which one is Patriarch Xiao Zhan?" Gu Hua asked.
"Xiao is Xiao Zhan." Xiao Zhan also quickly got rid of the shock in his heart at this time, unwilling to lose the face of the patriarch, he bowed to Gu Hua.
"Patriarch Xiao." Gu Hua laughed before saying anything, and his demeanor was unfathomable.
"In order to abide by the ancient covenant between you and my clan and deepen the relationship between the two clans, the patriarch of our clan specially sent his daughter, Miss Xun'er, to the Xiao family to be raised by Patriarch Xiao. I hope that during the time before Miss Xun'er becomes an adult, , Patriarch Xiao, you can take good care of Miss Xun'er."
"I will, Elder Gu Hua." Xiao Zhan nodded, said, looked at Xun'er, and smiled kindly at Xun'er.
Xun'er smiled sweetly at Xiao Zhan, and said crisply to Xiao Zhan: "Hello, Uncle Xiao, I'm Gu Xun'er, I will trouble you in the future."
Seeing this, Xiao Zhan nodded secretly and said: "This girl has a good temper, so she won't be troublesome."
Seeing the smooth communication between the two, Gu Hua smiled with satisfaction, and then said to the three well-dressed men, "Come here, three of you, follow me back."
Then Gu Hua turned his head and said to the people behind him: "You stay, Ling Ying, Miss's safety is up to you."
"Yes, Mr. Gu Hua." A Dou Huang strongman came out with more people.
"Patriarch Xiao, Ms. Xun'er, Gu Hua will leave now." Gu Hua casually bowed his hands to the crowd, and before they could respond, he took the three of them and tore apart the space again.
"Huh, I finally left. Damn, if the old man is only in the state of soul now, how could he be afraid of a five-star Dou Zun." With Gu Hua's departure, Yao Lao's pressure seemed to have eased a lot, and he relaxed.
"Hey." Xiao Yan said with a smirk looking at Yao Lao's slightly embarrassed look.
"Hmph, what are you laughing at? When that Dou Zun left, it seemed that three Dou Emperors and twelve Dou Kings were left to guard the little girl. There will be a good show in the future." Yao Lao sneered.
"Also, do you think that Gu Hua had a good attitude just now? Hmph, he just used the secret technique of sound transmission to tell the person next to him: Even the patriarch of the Xiao clan today is just a fighting spirit, not even a fighting king. It seems It's really lonely, the legacy of ancestor Xiao Xuan can't be seen anymore."
"Hmph, Dou Wang, no, even Dou Zun, my Xiao Clan will have one sooner or later!" Xiao Yan said dissatisfied.
Just as the master and apprentice were bickering with each other, Xiao Zhan and the others seemed to be planning to leave.
"Mr. Ling, you..." Xiao Zhan looked at Mr. Ling and his party and said.
"Patriarch Xiao doesn't need to arrange for us, we will protect Miss in the dark." As they spoke, the bodies of the group gradually faded, and finally disappeared into the air completely into the slightest ripples.
"Then Miss Xun'er, let's go." Xiao Zhan smiled helplessly, and said to the girl beside him.
"Uncle Xiao, it's better to just call me "Xun'er"." The girl blinked her lovely eyes and said.
"Okay, Xun'er." Saying that, Xiao Zhan took Xun'er's little hand, ready to go down the mountain and leave.
Xiao Zhan's instructions to the Great Elder were also heard in the wind.
"Elder, Miss Xun'er will be called Xiao Xun'er from now on. No one in the clan is allowed to ask about her origin."
"Yes, Patriarch." The Great Elder replied.
"Hey, the good show is over, let's go too." Yao Lao or Xiao Yan got up and smacked his mouth, saying that he still couldn't finish it, and he fell far behind Xiao Zhan and his party and walked away.
Chapter 4 Kaoru
Xiao Zhan, who went down the mountain and returned to Xiao's residence, said to the elder, "Elder, arrange Xun'er to live in the courtyard next to the main house. You have to worry about Miss Xun'er's daily life."
"Yes, Patriarch." The Great Elder cupped his hands knowingly.
