Chapter 64: I’ll Definitely Take Good Care of Youniang for You
Xiao Ruoyu’s face instantly flushed crimson. This little minx, actually using me as an example!
“Bah! You stinky girl, what nonsense are you talking about?” Xiao Ruoyu blushed, raising her hand to hit Xia Qingxue.
Xia Qingxue was already prepared, dodging quickly and giggling. “Sister Ruoyu, don’t be shy. It’s just the love between a man and a woman, what’s wrong with that? Besides, husband is so amazing.”
“Alright, stop talking!” Xiao Ruoyu’s chest heaved with anger, and she snapped.
“Haha, I’ll stop talking.”
Seeing Xiao Ruoyu’s embarrassment, Xia Qingxue laughed so hard that she doubled over. She hadn’t felt this way in a long time, and it made her feel refreshed and thrilled.

One day later.
Xiao Family, Meeting Hall.
The hall was crowded with people, and the atmosphere was solemn.
Hundreds of high-ranking members of the Xiao Family were gathered here.
This was a discussion about Xiao Ruoyu’s stay at the Su Residence for recuperation.
“Father, elder sister took advantage of her stay at the Su Residence to flirt with Su Chen, the Young Master of the Su Family. Why don’t you believe it?”
Xiao Tiancheng sat below, his brow furrowed, somewhat resentful.
The high-ranking members of the Xiao Family who supported Xiao Tiancheng also echoed his sentiment, believing that Xiao Ruoyu was simply disgracing the Xiao Family.
“Enough!”
Xiao Hanshan slammed his hand on the armrest, shouting angrily and interrupting everyone. He said in a deep voice, “I believe Ruoyu!”
Hearing this, Xiao Tiancheng’s brow furrowed even more, and his heart grew anxious. The purpose of this discussion was to make his father change his mind and appoint him as the Young Master of the Xiao Family.
But judging by Xiao Hanshan’s reaction, it was clear that he was determined to support Xiao Ruoyu.
“Father, you’re being foolish!”
Xiao Tiancheng hurriedly tried to dissuade him, his expression stern. “Our Xiao Family has always been suppressed by the Su Family. Now we are in a precarious situation. We shouldn’t try to pin our hopes on Su Chen.”
“Moreover, the Su Family is powerful now. If our Xiao Family doesn’t react, then what awaits us is the Su Family’s merciless butcher’s knife!”
Xiao Tiancheng tried to persuade him earnestly.
Unfortunately, the more he tried to persuade him, the more irritable Xiao Hanshan became. Upon hearing this, he immediately rebuked, “Humph! Our Xiao Family has never been afraid of the Su Family!”
Seeing his father’s agitated appearance, Xiao Tiancheng felt a headache coming on.
He didn’t know his true identity. If he did, he wouldn’t find Xiao Hanshan’s reaction so strange.
After all, he wasn’t Xiao Hanshan’s son. Even if he died, Xiao Hanshan wouldn’t pass the position of Young Master of the Xiao Family to him.
Xiao Tiancheng’s heart ached. Thinking of what Su Yong had said to him that morning, he immediately hardened his resolve and gave a signal to the thirty-plus people at the table.
Bang!
He stood up, grabbed his chair, and smashed it heavily onto the wooden table. Wood chips flew everywhere.
“You rebellious son, what are you doing!?”
Xiao Hanshan’s expression changed drastically, and he glared at Xiao Tiancheng, shouting angrily.
“Old man, I’ve tolerated you for a long time. Why is it that even though I’m clearly the eldest son of the Xiao Family, you’ve always favored that bitch Xiao Ruoyu?”
Xiao Tiancheng’s expression was ferocious, his eyes bloodshot, and he roared hysterically.
From childhood, he had been suppressed by Xiao Ruoyu everywhere. No matter how outstanding he performed, in Xiao Hanshan’s eyes, he was never as good as Xiao Ruoyu.
Now, he could no longer hold back. He tore off his disguise and revealed his ferocious fangs.
Just like Su Yong said, since they wouldn’t give it to him, he would take back what belonged to him in his own way.
“You rebellious son, are you crazy?”
Seeing Xiao Tiancheng actually defying him in the hall, Xiao Hanshan was furious. He shouted at the guards beside him, “What are you still standing there for? Quickly tie up this rebellious son!”
Swish, swish, swish!
Upon hearing this, the Xiao Family guards hurriedly rushed over, attempting to restrain Xiao Tiancheng.
✿✿✿
“Humph! I’d like to see who dares to touch me.”
Xiao Tiancheng flicked his sleeve, and more than thirty high-ranking members of the Xiao Family stepped forward from beside him.
Boom!
In an instant, a powerful aura erupted, sweeping through the entire hall, causing all the Xiao Family guards present to collapse, trembling in fear.
The aura of more than twenty Greater Saint Realm experts, along with three Quasi-Emperor Realm Great Powers, condensed into one, forming a tsunami-like pressure that distorted the space within the entire meeting hall.
“This…”
Seeing this scene, the other high-ranking members of the Xiao Family present, including Xiao Hanshan, were all stunned, their expressions filled with extreme shock.
“You…are you rebelling?!”
After a long while, an elder managed to open his mouth with difficulty, stammering out these words.
Hiss~
As soon as he spoke, the entire hall fell silent!
Everyone’s faces were filled with horror, and their gazes towards Xiao Tiancheng were tinged with fear.
Before this, no one had imagined that Xiao Tiancheng had secretly bought over so many core members.
Moreover, judging by the current situation, he was clearly aiming to seize power!
Thinking of this, everyone’s hearts pounded uncontrollably, as if they had been dealt a huge blow, and their breathing became rapid.
“Old man, I’ve said it before. I’m the most suitable candidate for Young Master. Only I can lead the Xiao Family to glory.”
Seeing everyone’s shocked expressions, a smug look appeared on Xiao Tiancheng’s face, and he said arrogantly, “Old man, obediently hand over the Family Head Token, and for the sake of our father-son relationship, I won’t make things too difficult for you.”
He paused, then continued in a chilling tone, “Otherwise, don’t blame me for being ruthless!”
At this moment, he was extremely excited.
As long as he obtained the Family Head Token, he would have the absolute authority to control the overall situation, and could even directly ascend to the position of Family Head.
Then, he would crush Su Chen like an ant and replace him, becoming the number one family in the Donghua Region.
Hearing this, Xiao Hanshan’s face flickered with uncertainty. After a moment, he let out a long sigh and said slowly, “Since you insist on fighting for it, then it’s yours.”
As soon as he said this, the entire hall fell silent.
Everyone stared at him blankly.
Had Xiao Hanshan agreed to let Xiao Tiancheng succeed him as Family Head?
In an instant, countless pairs of eyes were fixed on Xiao Hanshan, as if trying to figure out what he truly meant.
“Old man, you…what did you say?!” Xiao Tiancheng was dumbfounded.
He had thought that Xiao Hanshan would immediately resist with all his might, but he never expected him to just utter a casual sentence. What did this mean?
Xiao Hanshan glanced at him contemptuously and said indifferently, “The Family Head Token is within my body. If you want to take it, come and get it!”
“Old man, you’re courting death!”
Seeing Xiao Hanshan toying with him, Xiao Tiancheng finally lost his patience, his face becoming incredibly fierce. “Don’t worry, I’ll definitely take good care of Youniang for you!”
Youniang was Xiao Hanshan’s youngest concubine and Xiao Tiancheng’s secret lover.
“Beast! You evil creature! I’ll kill you!”
Xiao Hanshan was completely enraged. He abruptly raised his palm and struck at Xiao Tiancheng.
The full force of his Peak Quasi-Emperor Realm cultivation erupted. Xiao Hanshan’s palm carried destructive power.
He was determined to kill this bastard Xiao Tiancheng!
“Bang~”
A dark figure intercepted Xiao Tiancheng, colliding with Xiao Hanshan’s palm. Then, the two of them retreated dozens of meters.
