Looking at Xiao Yu who was standing in front of Xiao Yan, Shielding the bloody boy with her body, Jia Lie Bi expression kept changing rapidly.

He naturally recognized Xiao Yu, the granddaughter of the elder of the Xiao Clan, and was also aware of what had happened today in the Xiao Clans market.

To put it bluntly, in that incident, their Jia Lie clan was in the wrong. It was bad enough that they caused trouble on someone elses turf, but they even tried to snatch someone publicly. No one could justify such behavior, even he himself would not dare to say that they are not wrong.

Therefore, Jia Lie Bii didnt have the face to demand justice and explanation from the Xiao Clan for his son and the Jia Lie clan guards injury after being beaten up by Xiao Yu.

And the most important point was what his own son, Jia Lie Ao, had said to him.

Xiao Yu, a cultivator with a mere three-star Dou Shi (Battle Master, 3rd Level) cultivation stage, had defeated the Jia Lie clan guards who were at least five-star Dou Shi!

If someone else had told Jia Lie Bi about this, he would never have believed it!

Nonsense! Utterly absurd!

But these words came from his own son, and Jia Lie Bi couldnt help but believe them.

And now, after seeing Xiao Yus strength with his own eyes, the fear in Jia Lie Bis heart became even more overwhelming.

Xiao Yu was indeed just a three-star Dou Shi, and there was no doubt about that.

But that whip just now, even him, a Da Dou Shi (Battle Grandmaster, 4th Level), didnt have the courage to be able to resist it!

With that level of strength, defeating their clan group of guards who only have Dou Shi cultivation would not be a problem at all!

What kind of thing did the Xiao Clan feed their kids!? how come a monster like this 2 infront of him could possibly exist!?

On the other hand, Xiao Yu, who stood in front of Xiao Yan, her face was seriously watching Jia Lie Bi every move, and sometimes she would slightly take a look at the battered Xiao Yan behind her, feeling a slight sense of relief in her heart.

Thank goodness It seems there is no immediate danger to his life.

Then Xiao Yu focused all her attention on Jia Lie Bi standing in front of her.

She had fought against a Da Dou Shi (Battle Grandmaster, 4th Level) in the academy before, but she mostly lost and rarely won, and even then, it was always a close call.

But now, if she were to lose to Jia Lie Bi, she knew well what fate awaited her and Xiao Yan.

This is, after all, the territory of the Jia Lie clan, and theres no way the Xiao Clan members would have an easy time here, especially after all the damage that Xiao Yan had done to them.

Fortunately, Xiao Yu had informed Xiao Zhan to bring people to the Jia Lie Clan territory before she left.

And at this moment, the group that Xiao Zhan had prepared had just arrived.

Jia Lie Bi! You dare lay your hands on my younger generation. Your morale is just deteriorating more and more!!

With this furious roar, Xiao Zhan suddenly appeared, standing between Xiao Yu and Jia Lie Bi. The Xiao Clans first elder stood to the side, looking worriedly at his granddaughter.

Yuer! Are you alright?

At this moment, Xiao Yu finally felt completely relieved. She glanced at the Xiao Clan guards who were facing off against the Jia Lie clan guards outside the courtyard and softly said to her grandfather.

Grandfather, Im fine.

Then Xiao Yu turned to check on Xiao Yans condition. Although his body was covered in blood, fortunately, his sturdy physique prevented any serious injuries to his bones. He had simply passed out.

Behind Xiao Yu, Jia Lie Bi pointed at Xiao Zhan and angrily reprimanded.

Xiao Zhan! Your rebellious son trespassed into our Jia Lie clan, beat up our guards, and crippled my sons limbs! He didnt even spare Mr. Liu! Today, you must give me an explanation!!!

Hmph! They deserved it!

Xiao Zhan coldly retorted and finally had the chance to observe the situation inside the courtyard. A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Setting aside the issue of strength, the Jia Lie clan guards seemed to have only been knocked unconscious and not seriously injured. That was also the style of his son, showing mercy to his opponents, so he wasnt surprised.

But Xiao Yans treatment of Jia Lie Ao and Liu Xi could be considered quite cruel. The former had all his limbs crippled, and the latter was covered in blood even in the groin area. Looking at his gasping appearance, it was obvious he wouldnt live much longer.

Was it really his son who committed such brutal acts?

Xiao Zhan felt a deep fear in his heart. In his eyes, his son had always been gentle and avoided violence as much as possible when faced with most conflicts.

Even if, by any chance, Xiao Yan really resorted to violence, he would still try to leave a way out for the other party, just like the life-and-death duel with Jia Lie Ao before.

But the current level of brutality, which intensified the conflict irreversibly, was simply not something Xiao Yan would do under normal circumstances!

Regardless of the truth, Xiao Yan was still Xiao Zhans son, and as a father, he would always stick by his sons side, even if he made the enemy of the whole world!

Jia Lie Bi! In the end, wasnt it your family members who caused trouble in our Xiao Clans market?!

Xiao Zhan stared at Jia Lie Bi, his eyes filled with an unquestionable domineering aura.

Thats enough! You actually thought of using force to forcefully take away the granddaughter of our Xiao Clans first elder? Do you really think our Xiao Clan is a soft persimmon that you can take advantage of?!!

In an instant, Xiao Zhans Dou Qi aura, equivalent to that of Jia Lie Bis, surged forth, causing the atmosphere in the courtyard to become heavy.

Xiao Zhans attitude was extremely clear.

Your Jia Lie clan was at fault first, and you brought this upon yourselves!

Xiao Zhan! You old bastard!!!

Xiao Zhans firm stance infuriated Jia Lie Bi, who glared at him with a ferocious expression.

Fine! If war is what you want, I will play along!!! Jia Lie Bi, seething with anger, forgot about the pain of his severed arm and raised his hand, shouting with a voice filled with fury, Ill fight you till the end today! Jia Lie clan, all of you, listen to my command!!!

Seeing the enraged and irrational expression on Jia Lie Bis face, Xiao Zhans expression also darkened.

It seemed that there was no avoiding this battle today

Clap!

Suddenly, a loud clap resounded in the courtyard, causing both groups of people, who were on the verge of confrontation, to freeze. Then, a seductive voice filled with charm came from outside the courtyard.

Its best to prioritize peace in all matters. Why must the two clan leaders be so heated?

As everyone looked, a bewitching woman in a red dress swayed her supple waist, bypassing the guards of both families and elegantly walked into the courtyard, standing between Xiao Zhan and Jia Lie Bi.

Ya Fei, the chief auctioneer of the Wutan City branch of the Miteer Auction House!

Miss Ya Fei, this is a personal dispute between me and the Xiao Clan. It has nothing to do with the Miteer Auction House.

Facing the future heir of the Miteer Auction House before him, even Jia Lie Bi didnt dare to act rashly. He forcefully suppressed his anger and tried to dissuade Ya Fei with polite words.

Xiao Zhan looked at Ya Fei, who had a close relationship with his son, and remained silent.

Hehe~ What is Clan Leader Jia Lie Bi saying? Are you treating Ya Fei as an outsider? Ya Fei covered her mouth and chuckled, We are all colleagues in Wutan City. If there is a major problem between the Xiao Clan and the Jia Lie clan, the Miteer Auction House will naturally be affected. How can I stand aside?

Ya Feis words left Jia Lie Bi unsure of what to say as he stared at her.

He understood that this woman was determined to meddle in this matter today.

Ya Fei already knows the general situation of the incident, Ya Fei lightly brushed her lips and slowly said to Jia Lie Bi, The cause of the incident was your young master causing trouble in the Xiao Clans market and even attempting to forcibly take away the granddaughter of the Xiao Clans elder. You have no objections to this, right?

Jia Lie Bis face turned as dark as water, but he couldnt utter a word in retort, after all, what Ya Fei said was the truth.

Seeing Jia Lie Bis acquiescence, Ya Fei turned her gaze to Xiao Zhan and said softly.

Clan Leader Xiao Zhan, although the Jia Lie clan was the one who caused the problem first, your young master forcefully intruded into the Jia Lie clans residence, beat up Jia Lie clan multiple guards, and broke the limbs of the Jia Lie young master. Mr. Liu, a guest, is also on the brink of death due to the beating he got from your clan young master. You have no justifications for this matter, right?

My sons mistake is due to my inadequate supervision as a father. I, Xiao Zhan, will take full responsibility for his actions!

Xiao Zhan bowed and said firmly.

Then, Ya Fei joined her hands together and smiled.

Isnt it simple this way? Ya Fei looked at Jia Lie Bi, Clan Leader Jia Lie Bi, I guarantee on behalf of the Miteer Auction House that we will do our best to gather the medicinal herbs your Jia Lie clan recently purchased, and we will reduce the purchase cost by thirty percent.

This

Jia Lie Bi was stunned. Although those rejuvenating powders were not expensive, a thirty percent reduction in a large quantity amounted to a considerable sum of money. Moreover, Ya Fei guaranteed that they would do their best to gather the herbs, which meant that the Jia Lie clan didnt need to worry about running out of stock!

Seeing Jia Lie Bis interest piqued, Ya Fei turned her head and looked at Xiao Zhan.

Clan Leader Xiao Zhan, the thirty percent reduction in the cost of the medicinal herbs purchased by Clan Leader Jia Lie will be borne by the Xiao Clan as a punishment. What do you think?

How cunning!

Xiao Zhan, Jia Lie Bi, and everyone present all secretly criticized Ya Feis words.

So, with this arrangement, the Miteer Auction House just killed three birds using one stone, they didnt lose anything, they gained a good reputation, and they also didnt have to worry about selling the medicinal herbs.

This woman is truly cut out to be a merchant.

But even so, this reconciliation was the best outcome for both the Xiao and Jia Lie clan.

I accept this punishment, Xiao Zhan said.

Under Ya Feis mediation, the two major clanin Wutan City managed to avoid a disastrous situation.

Xiao Yu, carrying the unconscious Xiao Yan on his back, left the courtyard with the accompaniment of the Elder of the Xiao Clan. Xiao Zhan followed suit.

As they passed by Jia Lie Bi, the cold voice of Jia Lie Bi clearly reached Xiao Zhans ears.

Xiao Zhan, Im giving face to Miss Ya Fei today, but this matter is not over!

Hehe It goes both ways.

Xiao Zhan bowed his hand to Jia Lie Bi and left the Jia Lie clan with the Xiao Clan members. Ya Fei also politely bid farewell to Jia Lie Bi and left together.

After everyone else had left, Jia Lie Bi looked at Jia Lie Ao lying on the ground with all limbs broken, a trace of heartache appearing in his eyes.

No matter how disappointing he was, Jia Lie Ao was still his own son.

But Jia Lie Bi wasnt too worried. It was just broken bones, not a difficult-to-treat injury in the Dou Qi Continent. With some rest and recuperation, he would recover.

But the key issue was

Jia Lie Bi turned his gaze to the pitiful and lifeless Liu Xi. There was no sympathy in his eyes as he muttered under his breath.

A fool blinded by lust! If it werent for his identity as an alchemist, I would have killed him a hundred times myself! That young man from the Xiao Clan today did a service to the people by getting rid of him!

Although he said that, even if Jia Lie Bi didnt think highly of Liu Xis character, the fact remained that the Jia Lie clan managed to snatch the guest from the Xiao Clan. Liu Xi had an indispensable merit in that.

And there was also the matter of the rejuvenating powders. The Miteer Auction House had promised a thirty percent reduction in the cost of the medicinal herbs. But without Liu Xi, there would be no one to refine the medicine, rendering the herbs useless even if they were bought.

This vacancy had to be filled quickly.

Second Elder. Jia Lie Bi turned his head slightly and looked at Jia Lie Nu, the second elder of the Jia Lie clan, and said coldly, Personally bring people to invite Liu Xis master. Tell him that his beloved disciple was killed by that young man from the Xiao Clan, and our Jia Lie clan will assist him wholeheartedly in seeking revenge against the Xiao Clan.

Yes!
