Xiao Qingxiong was deeply moved upon hearing this, "Brother Sima, that you could bestow upon me such a treasured item, I am truly touched. I really wish today to behead a chicken, burn yellow paper, and become sworn brothers with..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard his father, Family Head Xiao Yuanshan's voice suddenly transmit, "Qingxiong, come here quickly. You and Ji Shaohua are both young people. Come, show Ji Shaohua around and make sure you're courteous!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Qingxiong's eyes immediately lit up, and without giving Sima Pu a second glance, he said, "Brother Sima, please excuse me for a moment!"
With that, he vanished in a whoosh from Sima Pu's presence and reappeared in front of the Shushan Chief Disciple in just a few seconds, soon after his characteristic words could be heard.
"Brother Ji truly is a peerless talent, I really admire you. If I, Xiao, could have a friend like you, I would have no regrets."
