Fighting the Supreme Realm

Hearing Zhen Ni ask about Zhen Jian, Xiao Yan's eyes immediately became a little evasive. He opened his mouth, but no words came out.

Xiao Yan's expression made Zhen Ni's heart twitch even more. She stared at Xiao Yan closely, her beautiful eyes filled with worry unblinking. Everyone also noticed that Xiao Yan's eyes were averting, and they were worried for Xiao Yan. They hoped that what came out of Xiao Yan's mouth would not be that Zhen Jian died in the bloody cave, let alone that he killed Zhen Jian.

In fact, the reason why Xiao Yan never mentioned Zhen Jian was not because he forgot, but because he didn't know what to say to Zhen Ni. In any case, Zhen Jian is Zhen Ni's younger brother after all, and he is a peerless genius that the Zhen family has not seen for tens of thousands of years. Now that he has been ruined in his hands, he is worried that Zhen Ni will not be able to accept it.

After pondering for a long time, Xiao Yan finally looked directly at Zhen Ni and replied: 'There has been contact. 'Although the voice was soft, it could not hide the anxiety in it.

As soon as Xiao Yan finished speaking, Zhen Ni looked at Xiao Yan nervously and asked repeatedly: 'How is it? How is Zhen Jian doing? "

Xiao Yan blinked and said hesitantly: 'I fought with Zhen Jian, Zhen Jian was defeated, the sword's heart was destroyed..."

Le Shaolong asked in surprise: "The sword's heart has been destroyed?" So, Zhen Jian is useless? "

Seeing Xiao Yan nodding, Xiao Yao's face suddenly turned pale, and he was uneasy and did not dare to look at Zhen Ni; Zhen Ni also straightened her pretty face and frowned.

Seeing Zhen Ni's face getting colder, Long Yi hurriedly said: "Sister Zhen Ni... Oh no, Aunt Zhen Ni, you don't know the situation at that time. Dad has been very tolerant, but Zhen Jian insists on putting dad to death..." "

So it turned out that Long Yi's explanation made everyone who was worried about Xiao Yan breathe a sigh of relief, and Zhen Ni's darkened face also relaxed a little.

Xiao Yan said apologetically: "Zhen Jian is aggressive and cruel, so I have to take action..."

'do not talk. "Zhen Ni raised her hand to interrupt Xiao Yan, "I know that my clan brother must have treated you because of me... Speaking of which, I have to thank you. If you hadn't looked at my face, Zhen Jian would have I'm afraid your men don't even have a chance to survive. Sparing his life is the greatest favor you can do to him. However, Zhen Jian is a peerless genius of the Zhen family and even the entire human race. If he is deposed by you, it will definitely cause a great shock in the Zhen family. I am worried that my father will be furious and it will be detrimental to the Xiao family..."

As soon as this worry came out, Xiao Yao, who was already worried about it, broke out in a cold sweat. He felt as if his heart was pressed by an invisible boulder and felt short of breath. He asked urgently: "What do you mean by the eldest lady... The head of the family will be angry at you" Xiao Mansion takes action? "

Le Shaolong and others all suddenly changed their expressions at the possibility of the shadow of the powerful Zhen family coming over them. They did not notice the detail that Xiao Yao called Zhen Ni's father the head of the family, but Qing Haoran's lips showed a traceless smile.

Zhen Ni nodded and shook her head worriedly, "I can't say...my father is very face-conscious in everything he does. For the sake of the grudges between the younger generations, and the grudges forged in the blood caves where everyone was killing each other based on their own abilities, he went to war against the Xiao clan." , is not a glorious thing; but my father is a person who values ​​​​prestige very much. The peerless genius in the clan has been deposed. If he tolerates this tone, I am afraid it will greatly affect his attitude in the hearts of his subordinates. of prestige. So, I really can’t say... In his position, many ideas are beyond our ability to guess. "

Zhen Ni's words made everyone feel anxious. Le Shaolong frowned, his eyes fell on Qing Haoran, and said: "Demon Emperor, you are the Demon Emperor, and Zhen Ni's father is the Human Emperor. I think this is the right thing to do." You are the one who has the most say on this issue. Can you tell me from the perspective of the king of a clan, how would you handle it if this happened to you? "

‘Yes, yes, Demon Emperor, please tell me quickly so that we can have an idea. "

Xiao Yao was anxious and looked at Qing Haoran eagerly.

Zhen Ni and others also looked at Qing Haoran uneasily and asked for help. Only Xiao Yan looked at Qing Haoran uneasily and showed no uneasiness, but seemed to be thinking about something.

Qing Haoran had actually been thinking about how Zhen Ni's father would handle this matter. After hearing Le Shaolong and Xiao Yao ask about it, he pondered for a while and then said: "In our position, many times we can't control our own thoughts. We need to consider The pros and cons in all aspects should be done according to what is beneficial to the family or the entire race. They will never be based on their own likes and dislikes or the emotions of their subordinates. In short, focus on the overall situation. "

Zhen Ni asked urgently: 'In your opinion, how would my father judge the pros and cons in this matter of Zhen Jian? "

Xiao Yao also asked anxiously: 'Yes, Demon Emperor, if...if you were the head of the family...Eldest lady, I am just making an analogy...if Demon Emperor, you were the head of the Zhen family, what decision would you make? "

‘Haha, don’t worry, you two, things may not be as bad as you fear. Qing Haoran comforted Zhen Ni and Xiao Yao, and then said apologetically to Zhen Ni, "Miss Zhen Ni, I didn't mean to be disrespectful to you or slander your father." Then he continued, "Then I will assume that I It was Zhen Zongfu, the head of the Zhen family. I know Zhen Zongfu well. He is calm, not impulsive, very deep, very scheming, and very opinionated. He delegates power to his subordinates in small matters, but is decisive in major matters. He treats his subordinates equally with kindness and power, but he is also very decisive. Extremely ruthless; within the human race, everything is focused on the interests of the Zhen family, and outside, everything is focused on the interests of the human race, but he has the overall situation in mind and will make concessions for the sake of the overall situation. He is definitely a heroic and competent Human Emperor. If I were him, I would definitely seek the opinions of the elders in the family before making a decision, but more importantly, I would consider other factors comprehensively. "

At this point, Qing Haoran stopped, looked at Xiao Yao and then at Zhen Ni, thought for a while and then said: 'I need to know two things. Let me ask the first thing first. Old patriarch, may I ask if the Xiao clan is a branch of the Zhen family? Or an affiliated family? "

As soon as Qing Haoran asked this question, except for Xiao Yan, Xiao Yao and Zhen Ni, everyone else's minds immediately went blank, and their eyes all looked at Xiao Yao and Zhen Ni.

Surprised, Xiao Yao cast a questioning look at Xiao Yan. After Xiao Yan shook his head and then nodded, he answered Qing Haoran with a wry smile: 'Yes, the Xiao clan is indeed a subsidiary clan of the Zhen family. But I am very strange. The Zhen family and I, the Xiao Clan, have never disclosed this matter to the outside world. Only I, Xiao Li, Xiao Long and Xiao Yan know about it. How did the Demon Emperor know about it? "

Qing Haoran smiled, "I guessed it from the old patriarch's attitude towards Miss Zhen Ni." You are more respectful to Miss Zhenni, a junior, than to me, the Demon Emperor. Do you think the relationship between you will be thought-provoking? However, this is just a guess. I have never been sure. It was not until the old patriarch called Zhen Zongfu the head of the family just now, not the head of the Zhen family, nor the human emperor, that I basically confirmed my guess. "

'I see. The Demon King is really insightful. Xiao Yao scratched the back of his head and uneasily glanced at the reactions of Le Shaolong and others.

At this moment, Qing Muer angrily defended the Xiao clan: ‘Humph! What kind of affiliated family is this? Since I met the little liar, the Xiao clan has faced the danger of annihilation twice, and I have never seen the Zhen family rescue them without mentioning it. They didn't even say a word afterwards, let alone vent their anger on behalf of the Xiao clan. Even the old patriarch has to rely on his own efforts to break through to five stars..."

'shut up! "

Qing Haoran shouted sternly to stop Qing Mu'er, and then apologized to Zhen Ni: 'Mu'er has a straightforward temper, Miss Zhen Ni, don't take it to heart. "

Zhen Ni smiled nonchalantly and said, 'What sister Mu'er said is true. It's just that as a member of the Zhen family, I can't say much about it. "

Xiao Yao hurriedly explained to Qing Haoran and Qing Muer, as well as to Xiao Yan, Le Shaolong and others: 'The family master cannot be blamed for this. When I first arrived in Doudi Continent, I took Xiao Li, Xiao Long and others to join the Zhen family. We especially wanted to have a homeland of our own for the Xiao clan, but with our extremely humble strength at the time, this was simply impossible. "

Xiao Yao fell into memories of the past——

‘One day, the head of the family suddenly called me and asked me if I would like to go to Dizhou to build a subsidiary family for the Zhen family. My heart at that time was so excited that it almost burst out of my chest. Although Dizhou is located in a remote location, no matter how remote it is, it is still our home! In order to help the Xiao clan gain a foothold in the Imperial State, the head of the family specially asked a four-star Dou Emperor to go to the Imperial State with us, and asked the four-star Dou Emperor to temporarily change his surname to Xiao. Only then did we gain a firm foothold in the Imperial State and have a family of our own. The Xiao clan’s own home. In my heart, I am grateful to the head of the family,” (To be continued.!)
