"Are you stupid? If we don't know Master Han's address, isn't it easy to find the Xiao family's base?"
"Yes, yes, let's go tell the Xiao family."
"Not only that, we'll also work with them to wipe out the Oba family!"
And just like that, the elders of the Jialie family, one after another, sold out the Oba family in a few words.
The Jialie family acted immediately. The next night, Jialiebi secretly went to the Xiao family alone.
"What! Obaton actually dared to attack Master Han?"
In the Xiao family hall, Xiao Zhan was shocked when he heard Jialiebi's news.
Su Yun was now their great benefactor.
Over the past two years, thanks to their elixir business, their profits had skyrocketed. It could be said that Su Yun was the sole credit for the Xiao family's current success.
Xiao Zhan naturally didn't want anything to happen to Su Yun.
"Jialebi, is this serious? Do you understand the consequences of spreading false information?"
Xiao Zhan said sternly to Jialiebi.
"Of course I could lie to you. I'm not stupid,"
Jialebi said earnestly, pouring out his frustrations, expounding on his own struggles and how he dared to tease a fourth-grade alchemist.
Xiao Zhan narrowed his eyes. Indeed, this matter directly concerned Master Han. He wouldn't dare offend a fourth-grade alchemist, even if he had ten times the guts.
"When are they planning to strike?"
Xiao Zhan pondered, then, trusting Jialebi for once, asked.
Seeing Xiao Zhan's belief, Jialebi was delighted and said,
"At the beginning of next month, the Oba family has lost track of Master Han's whereabouts.
They plan to ambush him on his way back after delivering the elixir to your family."
Hearing that he still had a month to go, Xiao Zhan felt certain he still had time to prepare.
Master Han had always helped the Xiao family, and now that he was being plotted against, the Xiao family naturally needed to be of some use to demonstrate their strength to him.
Xiao Zhan and Jialebi then worked out the details.
The Jiale family would act as the internal support, while the Xiao family would provide the external siege.
Let's wipe out the Oba family in one fell swoop!
After the discussion, Xiao Zhan sent Jialebi out through the back door, looked at his back, and pondered Jialebi's intention to inform on
the matter. Xiao Zhan understood after a moment's thought: he was surrendering. He
was a smart man, knowing that he had no chance of winning, he betrayed his teammates and surrendered.
A trace of contempt flashed in Xiao Zhan's eyes again, and he shook his head, ignoring Jialebi. The most urgent thing was to work with the three elders to arrange this matter.
On the other side, Jialebi smiled sinisterly.
Obaton was strong in limbs but simple in mind, and Xiao Zhan was also a foolish conservative.
These two fools, they couldn't figure out the truth no matter how hard they tried, and they were all toyed with in my hands!
Hahahaha...
Xiao Zhan called out the three elders, and the four of them were now in the Xiao family's hall.
The first elder frowned as he listened to Xiao Zhan's description.
"Too much for this to happen!"
The other two elders were also furious.
Although the three of them and Xiao Zhan were at odds, they were united in their stance when it came to the Xiao family's interests. They could tell right from wrong.
Now, Su Yun and the Xiao family weren't about sharing weal and woe, but rather, the Xiao family was completely dependent on Su Yun, a fourth-rank alchemist.
Now that someone was targeting them, how could they not be furious?
"This is what's going on. Jia Liebi just left, so the news shouldn't be false.
This matter requires the full force of the Xiao family, and I can't decide on my own. What do you think?"
Xiao Zhan sat in the main seat, scanning the three elders.
The three elders exchanged glances, each understanding the other's intentions.
Fight!
The eldest elder spoke first.
"Since that's the case, then let's cooperate with the Jialie family and destroy the Oba family!"
The other two elders agreed.
Xiao Zhan nodded, and the matter was settled. A month later, only two major families remained in Wutan City!
Su Yun, leisurely at home, had no idea that Wutan City was about to be in turmoil because of him.
He was currently enjoying the fruit that Xiao Yixian had served him.
He had never tasted this in his previous life; it must be a unique variety on the Dou Qi Continent.
It looked... a bit like a peach from his past life.
Su Yun took one from the table. It was incredibly juicy. He bit into it, and a lot of white juice splattered. Xiao Yixian was directly across from Su Yun, quite close, splashing her face.
"Brother!"
Xiao Yixian exclaimed, a little annoyed.
Su Yun chuckled, "Xian'er, I said I didn't mean to do that. Do you believe me?"
Xiao Yixian glared at Su Yun, wiped her finger across her face, and put it in her mouth.
It was quite sweet.
Su Yun watched Xiao Yixian's actions with a strange look in his eyes. That cherry-like mouth...
Xiao Yixian took out a handkerchief and wiped it across her face. Although it was clean, it still felt sticky from the fruit pulp.
"Brother, what are you looking at? Are you thinking of something disrespectful?"
Xiao Yixian looked at Su Yun with a hint of disdain, as if looking at a pervert trying to molest a beautiful girl.
"Ahem, Xian'er, how can you say that about your brother?"
Su Yun coughed, trying to regain some of his brotherly authority.
"Huh..."
Xiao Yixian's face was filled with disdain, but inside, a tinge of joy lingered.
Brother, you're looking at my lips, are you trying to taste Xian'er?
Just as Xiao Yixian's mind wandered, Su Yun flicked her head.
"Xian'er, were you thinking of something strange just now?"
Su Yun looked at Xiao Yixian with a hint of amusement.
"Ah, stinky brother! You're so mean!"
Xiao Yixian's face flushed red, her defenses instantly broken. She pounced on Su Yun, scratching at him.
Su Yun and Xiao Yixian played for a while, well into the night. Xiao Yixian lay on top of Su Yun, clearly exhausted.
Su Yun slapped Xiao Yixian on the butt, a wave of guilt rising in his heart. "Are you convinced?"
"Yes! Xian'er is convinced. Brother will spare Xian'er."
Xiao Yixian rolled her eyes endearingly, a blush flashing across her face. She wrapped her arms around Su Yun's waist and begged for mercy. "
So shy." Humph, brother is so mean, he just likes to bully Xian'er.
Su Yun felt a flicker of pleasure in his heart, and he lifted Xiao Yixian up and held her in his arms.
He walked towards the bed, holding Xiao Yixian like a soft jade, and fell into a deep sleep.
In the morning, Su Yun opened his eyes, and Xiao Yixian was gone.
Suddenly, he felt a slap on his butt.
"Brother is such a lazy bum! The sun's already setting in, and he still hasn't gotten up."
Su Yun turned around. Little Doctor Fairy, wearing a homely apron, looked at him with a smile, a flicker of revengeful satisfaction on her face.
Su Yun stood up and tapped Little Doctor Fairy's head. "You~"
Little Doctor Fairy's smile grew even sweeter.
