Chapter 165: Yun Shan Has Yielded

~8 min read 1,574 words

"Great-uncle, is there something you need here?" Xiao Zhan looked at Xiao Han, who appeared slightly excited before him, and asked with some confusion.

The only matter concerning their Xiao Clan lately was that restless Chu Yun Empire. But they were merely a few cannon fodder sent by the Soul Hall to provide support; what was there to worry about?

It was just that Xiao Han's next words made him realize the situation was somewhat difficult to handle.

"Are you sure you want to directly finish off a Soul Hall Heavenly Venerate?" Xiao Han asked with a half-smile.

"Heavenly Venerate?" Xiao Zhan was truly shocked now; the appearance of a figure at the level of a Heavenly Venerate in such a small place was something Xiao Zhan dared not imagine.

Moreover, Xiao Zhan had also considered the problem Xiao Han had initially thought of—it was easy to eliminate him. But once this person was killed, the subsequent problems that would be drawn in were the most troublesome.

The Xiao Clan was still in a period of dormancy and could not be exposed to the public eye too easily.

"Great-uncle, have you come to provide a solution?" However, the moment Xiao Zhan saw Xiao Han's confident appearance, he was no longer nervous; Great-uncle must have a brilliant plan!

"There is indeed a method, but it requires that little fellow Xiao Yan to sacrifice a little," Xiao Han said with a chuckle.

"Please enlighten me, Great-uncle!"

"It's like this..." As Xiao Zhan listened to Xiao Han's voice transmission, his pupils widened involuntarily; if Great-uncle's plan truly succeeded, they would save a great deal of effort.

Furthermore, their future safety would be greatly guaranteed.

"How is it?" Xiao Han asked.

"No problem, everything will be as Great-uncle arranges," Xiao Zhan said excitedly. At the same time, he did not forget to silently mourn for his own son in his heart.

"Yan'er, for the sake of our Xiao Clan, Father will sacrifice you a little; it is all the Soul Hall's fault!"

Xiao Zhan carried out a ruthless accusation against the Soul Hall in his heart. Meanwhile, Xiao Yan, who was on his way to the Tagor Desert, suddenly shivered violently and immediately quickened his pace.

"Since that is the case, you should prepare well. I am going to the Yunlan Sect; there are some things I still need that old fellow to help with," Xiao Han said.

Xiao Han turned to leave, and Xiao Zhan immediately called out to him: "Great-uncle, please wait a moment."

"Is there anything else?" Xiao Han asked.

"This..." Xiao Zhan said embarrassedly, "It is about Yan'er."

"Little Yan?" Xiao Han's tone shifted slightly. Could it be that the child had met with some accident? But who could possibly hurt him?

He then asked curiously: "What is wrong with that kid?"

Next, Xiao Zhan laid out the matter between Xiao Yan and Yun Yun to Xiao Han, feeling even a bit awkward.

After all, his own son had actually crossed such a large age gap to fall in love with the master of the woman who had broken off her engagement with him; this...

Even folk storybooks wouldn't dare write it like this!

But on the other hand, Xiao Long was obsessed all day long with that "daughter-in-law" she had never met. With no solution after much thought, Xiao Zhan could only choose to seek help from Xiao Han.

Even if Great-uncle did not agree, he could help persuade his wife not to worry about it anymore.

Who would have thought...

Xiao Han actually revealed an expression of keen interest, "What, are you wanting me to go and play matchmaker for Little Yan?"

He had clearly misunderstood the intention.

But regarding the feelings between Xiao Yan and Yun Yun, Xiao Han did not care at all; he even highly approved of it.

As for the age issue, after a thousand years passed, that gap of twenty-some years would be completely insignificant. That kid Xiao Yan would have a wife with a gap of over a hundred years later on anyway; this was nothing.

Moreover, since Xiao Han's plan involved "slightly" hurting Xiao Yan, he naturally had to provide some compensation. At first, he didn't know what to give, and had thought about simply gifting an Exotic Fire.

But now, hadn't the gift just arrived? Proposing marriage, let's go!

It must be said, Xiao Han's thoughts in certain aspects were exactly the same as Xiao Long's—perfectly synchronized!

"No need to say more, leave this matter to me. I will personally go and bring this up with Yun Shan; I guarantee I will get it done for you." Before Xiao Han's voice had even faded, he suddenly vanished from before Xiao Zhan.

"Hey... Great-uncle!" Xiao Zhan reached out a hand, then let it drop powerlessly. Now there was going to be some fun! Forget it, I'll deal with it when the time comes!

Yun Shan frowned as he looked at the calm-looking man in white before him; it was none other than this scoundrel Xiao Han.

For some reason, Yun Shan always felt that Xiao Han's gaze was very strange, as if he had been taken advantage of.

Soon, Yun Shan's thought was verified.

"Why have you come here again?" Yun Shan poured a cup of tea for Xiao Han and asked calmly.

"What, not welcoming an old friend like me?" Xiao Han raised his eyes, appearing slightly disappointed.

"Hehe~" Yun Shan was already immune to this act of Xiao Han's and ignored him.

He really did not understand: since Xiao Han was already so powerful, why did he still frequently swipe quite a few items from his Yunlan Sect?

"Speak of the real business!"

Xiao Han's expression turned serious, and his entire aura changed instantly, making even Yun Shan sigh with emotion; this aura of a superior was truly not bad—he was far inferior to the other man.

"I hope you can do me a favor!" Xiao Han said gravely.

"What is it?" Yun Shan's eyes narrowed. Seeing Xiao Han's demeanor, he knew that the task his old friend wanted to ask of him was not low in danger!

But whether he would do it was another matter; he would listen for now.

"Help me kill someone." Before Yun Shan could even ask for the target's identity, Xiao Han blurted out: "A powerhouse of the Chu Yun Empire's Wanxie Sect—Du Xiezi, who is also a Soul Hall Heavenly Venerate."

"Soul Hall Heavenly Venerate?!" Yun Shan glanced sideways at Xiao Han and pointed a hand toward the door: "Go well, I won't see you out!"

"Sigh!" Xiao Han said in a soft voice, "Don't have such a fiery temper; let's all talk properly."

"The fact that I haven't drawn my sword to kill you right now is already a sign of excellent self-restraint," Yun Shan said with an unkind tone.

Yun Shan had previously heard Yun Yun mention Du Xiezi. He had originally thought it was just a reclusive powerhouse invited out of some deep mountain forest by the Wanxie Sect; who would have thought the other party was actually a Soul Hall Heavenly Venerate!

Did he really think that because he, Yun Shan, stayed in the Jia Ma Empire, he knew nothing? A Soul Hall Heavenly Venerate was at least a Five-Star Dou Zun; for a Two-Star Dou Zun like him to go up and fight the other party would be like serving himself on a platter.

If it weren't for the fact that the two had a decent friendship, Yun Shan would have wanted to curse.

"Listen to me explain in detail!" Xiao Han's tone suddenly rose, causing Yun Shan to be taken aback.

"Speak!" Yun Shan would never admit that he had chickened out.

"I will gift you a Venerable Ultimate Pill, plus an Earth Tier High Grade Cultivation Method that matches your attributes and a Heaven Tier Low Level Battle Skill." It must be said, Xiao Han had truly spent a fortune this time.

If it weren't for the fact that he still needed Yun Shan to give his consent later, he really would have been reluctant to pay such a high price.

"Say that again!" The chair Yun Shan was sitting on was instantly shattered into powder by his leaking Dou Qi.

"You heard me right, these are my conditions," Xiao Han said domineeringly, though he had to endure the heartache behind it.

"Hoo~" Yun Shan let out a long breath; this news was a bit too shocking, and he couldn't keep his composure for a moment!

Just look at what kind of outrageous words this wealthy landlord in front of him had just spoken!

The Venerable Extreme Pill can unconditionally raise the cultivation of a Dou Zun powerhouse by one star, and there is even a tiny chance to raise it by two stars.

And what about Cultivation Methods and Dou Techniques?

It is painful to even say it; the Cultivation Method he has practiced his whole life is only an Earth Tier Low Level Cultivation Method, and he only has one Earth-tier Intermediate Dou Technique.

Heaven Tier, that is a level from legends.

Compared to him, he has truly lost the face of a Dou Zun powerhouse!

"I agree!"

Facts have proven that being blinded by greed is not limited to ordinary people; for powerhouses, it is even more so.

Yun Shan finally yielded to Xiao Han's generosity.
