"You… you are the patriarch of the Xiao Clan?"
Yao Tian's expression was quite a sight.
Bewilderment, excitement, admiration, and reverence all flashed across his face.
The Xiao Clan's patriarch, one of the true peak experts on the continent, was second to none.
This was someone who could suppress the entire Yao Clan with his own power.
Yet, he was also a magnificent figure that countless ancient clan geniuses aspired to and admired.
"Indeed." Xiao Shaobei nodded slightly, a gentle smile on his face.
Ever since he became the head of the Xiao Clan, he hadn't witnessed such a look of youthful admiration directed at him in a long time.
The elders in the council had become a bunch of lifeless old geezers, looking like they'd been sent straight from their coffins, making him feel like he dealt with machines every day.
Therefore, he found Yao Tian's expression quite pleasing.
He saw him release Yao Tian's hand with a gentle wave, causing Yao Tian to silently retreat a few steps.
"Young man, why can't you just speak properly? Why all the fighting?"
A peaceful smile adorned his face, giving off a look of world-weariness.
Hearing this, the respectful look on Yao Tian's face also calmed slightly.
After all, he was the top genius of the Yao Clan in this generation, and even when facing the Xiao Clan's leader, he still held a trace of arrogance within his heart.
He took a deep breath and bowed slightly to Xiao Shaobei, "Senior, it's not that I intend to make things difficult for the Xiao Clan's genius, but the person behind you has acted too badly.
My younger sister came to this Yin-Yang Evil Saint's ruins to search for a Heavenly Flame. She only agreed to team up with him because he was from the Xiao Clan, but I never expected that this young man would defile her."
"???" Xiao Shaobei's originally amiable expression stiffened slightly.
He turned and looked at Xiao Yan behind him.
"Did you do this?"
Xiao Yan nodded and then said, "Clan Leader, that young woman from the Yao Clan refined the Yin-Yang Evil Saint's Yang Flame, and I sacrificed myself to save her.
It was her first time, and it was also my first time."
As he spoke, Xiao Yan's face still wore a hint of grievance.
Xiao Shaobei's mouth twitched.
"I finally understand why Langbi chose you."
"Where's the langbi, where's the langbi?" Xiao Yan's eyes lit up.
Seeing his reaction, Xiao Shaobei couldn't help but rub his forehead.
How did this guy get recognized by the clan ancestor and become an Imperial Son?
Thinking of this, he glanced at Yao Tian, whose forehead was bulging with veins from anger, and cleared his throat. "Young man, what's your name?"
Yao Tian glared at Xiao Yan before bowing slightly to Xiao Shaobei. "Senior, this junior is called Yao Tian."
"Oh, you're the genius Yao Tian from the Yao Clan?" Xiao Shaobei's eyes brightened, and he looked at Yao Tian with an appreciative gaze.
"No wonder, no wonder. I was wondering how the continent suddenly gained such a young Half-Saint, and it turns out to be you.
Heh, that old geezer Yao Dan spoke about you a long time ago. Seeing you today, it's true that the new waves are pushing the old ones forward."
"Senior is too kind," Yao Tian actually blushed slightly, which was rare.
Being valued so much by this legendary powerhouse made his heart race, as if he were floating on clouds.
This feeling was like the Yao Clan's clan leader suddenly presenting him with the clan leader's seat, respectfully saying, "I am no longer worthy of this position, the future of the Yao Clan will depend on your leadership."
"Heh, the clan leader probably didn't lack flattery back then. It seems that being able to become the Xiao Clan's clan leader means you are top-notch at sweet talking.
No wonder he is good buddies with that Yin-Yang Evil Saint; those two were probably cut from the same cloth back then."
Xiao Yan inwardly complained, but a grateful smile appeared on his face.
"Thank you, Clan Head, for helping me out."
As soon as those words left his mouth, Yao Tian, who had been about to float away with arrogance, suddenly sobered up.
"Senior values me so much, I'm truly flattered. However, there must be a resolution to today's matter." He said with a serious expression.
"What, you still want to fight?" Xiao Shaobei's face immediately darkened.
"No, I wouldn't dare." Yao Tian was startled, and said in a low voice, "I just want this person to go back to the Yao Clan with me and apologize to my sister in person."
Xiao Shaobei turned his head and winked at Xiao Yan.
"Not now, I have something to do." Xiao Yan shook his head.
"You made the mess, you clean it up." Xiao Shaobei stared at Xiao Yan.
"This is a command from the clan ancestor!" Xiao Yan said lightly.
"Why didn't you say so earlier, no big deal." Upon hearing Xiao Xuan's name, Xiao Shaobei's expression instantly changed a lot.
"Um, Yao Tian." He slowly walked in front of Yao Tian, and patted Yao Tian's shoulder warmly.
"Do you know the Imperial Son of my Xiao Clan?"
"I've heard the name, but I don't know much about him." Yao Tian shook his head.
"Come over here and I'll tell you," Xiao Shaobei said, pulling Yao Tian aside and starting to whisper.
Xiao Yan didn't know what he said, he only saw that the look Yao Tian gave him first was disdainful, then turned to shock, and then, there was even a trace of respect, and finally, there was a hint of friendliness.
Meanwhile, Xiao Wen on the side was shocked by this scene.
The clan leader's always dignified and solemn image was slowly crumbling in his mind.
After about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, he saw Yao Tian slowly clasp his hands towards Xiao Shaobei in a respectful bow before flying towards him.
"Brother-in-law, what do you want?" Xiao Yan took a step back, looking wary.
But thinking that the clan leader was still nearby, he probably wouldn't be harmed.
"Slap!" Yao Tian slapped Xiao Yan on the shoulder, the powerful force almost scattering Xiao Yan's Dou Qi wings.
"Clan leader, this kid wants to kill me." Xiao Yan was about to call for help when he heard Yao Tian's voice in his ear.
"Brother-in-law, cultivate well, and when you become a Rank 9 Alchemist, come to the Yao Clan to find my sister sooner."
With that, he broke through the space and left.
"What?" Xiao Yan looked at Xiao Shaobei, bewildered.
"Clan Head, what did you say to him?"
"I just revealed your identity and status as an Imperial Son to him, and then explained the pros and cons." Xiao Shaobei looked like he had done a great deed but didn't want any credit.
"You're so… subtle. No wonder your name is Shaobei," Xiao Yan said to him, clasping his hands in a gesture of respect.
"Thank you for helping me out, Clan Head."
"Haha, you're an Imperial Son of our clan. In terms of status, we're practically equals." Xiao Shaobei waved his hand.
"My status was bestowed by the clan ancestor, but the Clan Head's status comes from your own strength. In my heart, the Clan Head is like the bright moon in the dark night. Besides the clan ancestor, no one can compare to the Clan Head's greatness."
Xiao Yan said earnestly.
"Ah, that's so satisfying." Xiao Shaobei suddenly felt that Yao Tian's worshipful gaze just now was nothing compared to this.
His eyes towards Xiao Yan were now more friendly.
"You've got a thick skin, the future is bright."
"Thank you for the compliment, Clan Leader."
"Heh." Xiao Shaobei chuckled softly, looking at the ancient city beside him, his eyes filled with excitement and nostalgia.
"A thousand years. Langbi, I've come to save you!"
"Clang! Clang! Clang!" Suddenly, a sound rang out from a Heavenly Flame cauldron not far away.
Xiao Yan behind him suddenly changed his expression.
"It's bad! Elder Wu is still inside!"
