Chapter 5255 Crowding Out

Knowing that the daughter who was lost and thought to be dead had returned, although Xue Tianming was not in tears, he was very excited.

Naturally, he had known the news a long time ago. However, after seeing Li Xianglan, Xue Tianming still couldn't help himself. As the head of the Fengxue family, one of the four major families, it was basically very difficult for him to reveal his true feelings. Less seen.

But at this time, seeing Li Xianglan's appearance that was almost the same as that of his wife back then, Xue Tianming's eyes were still slightly red.

Xue Tianming is the second son of the Fengxue family, his seniority is orderly, and the position of the head of the family has nothing to do with him. However, Xue Tianming's elder brother was very jealous of his younger brother. Although his younger brother was very obedient, the existence of his younger brother represented his qualification to be the head of the family.

It's like the past dynasties, those emperors who successfully ascended to the throne were very close to their brothers when they were princes. Once they came to power, the brothers and emperors would make mistakes one by one, and then slashed and killed them, and finally cleaned up. clean.

Are those brothers really doing evil, or trying to usurp the throne? What's more, it may be that he himself is worried that the existence of these people is likely to replace him as the emperor.

Well, just kill these people.

Xue Tianming's elder brother thought the same way, so he thought of a way to push Xue Tianming to a remote area in the end. Once in the past, Xue Tianming has been away from the core of the family since then, and even if he came back when offering sacrifices to his ancestors, he was more often like a guest.

The Xue Tianming back then naturally knew this was the case, but he was unwilling to kill brothers for the sake of being the Patriarch, so he took his wife and daughter and left calmly. His son, Xue Wuxin, stayed in the family. To put it bluntly, it was Xue Wuxin's uncle who wanted Xue Wuxin to have a good study condition. To put it bluntly, he was a hostage.

But in the end, Xue Tianming's family ran into members of the Blood Demon Sect on the way. After a chaotic rush, Xue Tianming's wife and daughter disappeared, and there has been no news since then, but most likely they were murdered.

Xue Tianming was rescued by his followers and returned to the family. This may have been an accident, but the death of his wife and daughter had a lot to do with him leaving home. The reason why Xue Tianming didn't want to compete for the position of head of the family back then was because he felt that he had a wife who loved each other and a pair of lovely children, so he had nothing to ask for.

Even if he went to a remote area, he was still the second youngest of the Xue family, and no one dared to take him seriously.

But everything failed to come true. Wasn't the reason why his wife and daughter were killed because he wanted to leave his family and go to a remote place? If he is the head of the family himself, who would dare to order him to leave the family?

This may have become an obsession, so after Xue Tianming returned to Fengxue's home, he took advantage of the opportunity to recover from his injuries and stayed in Fengxue City for three years. That is to say, in the past three years, the reputation of the second young master of the Xue family became more and more famous, and finally the elder generation's master was shaken, thinking that the second child was better than the eldest.

Then there was a process of fighting for power for three or four years. However, although Xue Tianming had set his mind to fight for the position of Patriarch after returning to the family, in fact, the power he possessed was comparable to that of the boss. It's really far, far worse. To use an analogy, since the boss was regarded as the future head of the family since he was a child, he has always enjoyed the best resources. When he grows up, most of the people who follow him are very talented or powerful.

Xue Tianming didn't have much help, but in the end, he still won. Why? Even the day before he became the Patriarch, his victory was still less than 30%.

But he only did one thing and completely reversed the situation. He killed his elder brother...

In the last generation of the Xue family, there were only two direct descendants, the eldest was killed by the second child, and only the second child could become the head of the family.

With this method alone, the old Patriarch recognized Xue Tianming as Patriarch. The old patriarch, that is, the father of the two, once said that after the death of his wife and daughter, the things Xue Tianming did when he returned home can only show that this person is very capable, but not necessarily a very good person. the owner of the house.

A family, especially a family like the Fengxue family that has been passed down for tens of thousands of years, not only needs to have ability, but also needs to have courage. The old Patriarch finally felt that when the second child killed the boss, it meant that the person who could do such a thing ruthlessly was a qualified Patriarch.

Afterwards, the position of Patriarch was passed on to Xue Tianming. After the old Patriarch abdicated, he died in depression within a year... No matter how reasonable he said, but his two biological sons killed each other, the old Patriarch The Lord was also a generation of outstanding people, but in the end he couldn't accept it and died with hatred.

However, these are all things in the past. Today's Xue Tianming has already secured the position of head of the Fengxue family, and after more than ten years, he has also acquired a majestic demeanor.

But when facing Li Xianglan, he naturally didn't have any majesty. He stretched out his hand and said slightly tremblingly: "My child... come here, come here and let me have a look."

Li Xianglan was a little embarrassed. To be honest, she didn't feel anything when she saw this middle-aged man. Even if there is a little feeling that blood is thicker than water, it is really not much. After all, the middle-aged man in front of her had never appeared in her life since she could remember.

It may feel very unreasonable to say it, but it is the fact that Xue Tianming's generation of heroes can naturally see the insincere words in Li Xianglan's eyes. She was just responding politely, but she didn't feel the warmth of returning home.

Xue Tianming sighed inwardly. After all, her daughter has grown up. She already has her own very mature perception, her own ideas and cognition, and if she wants to change abruptly, it may be self-defeating. Fortunately... For him, it was the greatest blessing for him that his daughter was able to live and grow up healthy.

As for other things, there is no need to think too much. My daughter is already in her twenties. She has her own views and ideas, so let her go. It doesn't matter whether she denies the Xue family as the ancestor. It's important. Moreover, Xue Tianming feels that the person who can bring up his daughter is the one he should be most grateful for. In comparison, this kindness of nurturing is probably greater than his own kindness of childbearing...

Xue Tianming wanted to understand this, so he had no extra thoughts, and on the contrary, it made Li Xianglan feel a lot more at ease.

However, Xue Tianming was much more cautious about Ye Qian's son-in-law. Because... With Xue Tianming's eyesight and strength, he had already seen that his daughter was still Yunying's virgin and had never married at all.

So after Li Xianglan, Xue Wuxin and others retreated, Xue Tianming left Ye Qian alone, and asked some things, Ye Qian knew that he couldn't cover up, so he answered some truths and falsehoods. He told what happened in Ice City, and Li Xianglan pretended to be his daughter-in-law in order to save him from being suspected by the Gongsun family.

There was no relationship between the two, Ye Qian's frankness made Xue Tianming very happy. At the same time, he also attaches great importance to Ye Qian, the master of the unrivaled elixir.

Although because of the relationship between Xue Wuxin and Li Xianglan, Ye Qian seems to be very close to Feng Xue's family. However, in Xue Tianming's place, he still thinks the same as everyone else. If there is no relationship between Xue Wuxin and Li Xianglan, for Ye Qian, a person who can refine the best medicine, he may be better than the Meng Yuan family or the others. The Gongsun family and others have gone too far.

But fortunately, now that there is such a relationship between children, it can be regarded as eliminating the possibility of turning heads and hatred. Xue Tianming didn't need to resort to any cruel means to keep Ye Qian. He couldn't help thinking in his heart, if his daughter and Ye Qian really became a couple, this... doesn't seem to be a bad thing.

With me around, how could my daughter be worse? My daughter is already beautiful and beautiful, and she has the identity of the princess of the Fengxue family. In this world, is there anyone with a higher status than my daughter?

As for Ye Qian, he doesn't look bad either. Xue Tianming is a strong man in the third level of the king. With his eyesight, he can naturally see that Ye Qian is not inferior to his son Xue Wuxin in strength at a young age. is very rare. You know, Xue Wuxin also relied on the huge resources and heritage of the Fengxue family to achieve today's achievements, but Ye Qian did not have these, but he was still able to achieve today's achievements.

And, more importantly, his alchemy is unmatched in the Icefield Continent! Just now Xue Tianming also listened to Xue Wuxin's talk about the things along the way, met people from Gongsun's family to take revenge, they beheaded Gongsun Tianbai, and also mentioned Lin Yao's injury by the way, Xue Tianming was worried about Lin Yao's health At the time, Xue Wuxin smiled and said that with the elixir practiced by Ye Qian, Lin Yao was fine, so Xue Tianming was relieved.

However, he also knew that Ye Qian was capable enough to refine a fifth-grade elixir. Not to mention anything else, even Xue Tianming would be tempted by this top-ranked elixir that has reached the fifth rank!

The holy level is long and unattainable. Xue Tianming can be regarded as a genius of the sky. He is originally the strength of the second level of the king. Finally advanced to the third level of the king, but to reach the late stage of the third level of the king, it still needs countless hours of accumulation. As for the breakthrough... that is really a mountain, which is untouchable...

But if there is an unrivaled grade of pill, it will undoubtedly magnify this possibility several times! Holy level, who can resist this temptation?

But if Ye Qian is a free agent, even if they have a good relationship, they are just friends. Although friends will take care of each other, but friends... After all, they are a little less close than relatives.

But what if Ye Qian becomes a son-in-law?

Xue Tianming chatted with Ye Qian about some pills, but he thought about it in his heart. He didn't know much about pills. Seeing that there was nothing to talk about, he coughed dryly and said: "Ye Qian..."
