Chapter 500 Changes in the Xiao Family
Xiao Yan returned to the inner courtyard and saw Zhou Mingrui with a gloomy face at the door of the residence.
He scratched his head in embarrassment. Seeing that Mr. Ape was so happy, he was dragged to go fishing again. It took too long... It was only after he got the "Earth Tempering Body Milk" that he remembered that classmate Zhou Mingrui was still with the Snow Demon. Tian Yuan fought fiercely.
When he went back to find Zhou Mingrui, he and the Snow Demon Sky Ape had disappeared.
He scratched his head in embarrassment and smiled: "Well, Classmate Zhou..."
"I thought you died in that valley... I fought with that monkey for two hours!" Zhou Mingrui said in a cold voice.
Xiao Yan knew that any explanation at this time would be in vain, so he took out a jade bottle with half of the "Earth's Core Tempering Body Milk" in a very practical manner.
"Fortunately, I lived up to my fate!" Xiao Yan said with a smile.
Zhou Mingrui's expression softened a lot, he nodded at him, and walked towards his residence without saying a word.
Xiao Yan was just about to go to Tianfen Qi Refining Tower to practice, but he saw Hu Jia running over in a hurry:
"Xiao Yan, go to the outer courtyard quickly. Your eldest brother and second brother are here. It seems something happened to the Xiao family... Xun'er and Xiaomeng have already passed."
When Xiao Yan heard this, his expression suddenly changed and he immediately ran towards the inner courtyard where the griffin beast was parked.
When we arrived at the place, a griffin beast was ready and ready to go.
There is a thin old man on the back of the griffin beast. He is the elder of the inner circle, Elder Qing, whom he met before the fire energy hunting competition.
He smiled and said to Xiao Yan: "Come up, I will give you a ride."
Xiao Yan thanked him and jumped on the back of the griffin beast.
The huge gryphon flapped its wings, stirred up strong winds, and soared into the sky.
Under normal circumstances, the communication between the inner courtyard and the outer courtyard is very limited. It is not that easy for students to get out of the inner courtyard. They need to go through a set of review procedures.
However, for the sake of the two geniuses Xiao Meng and Xiao Yan, Elder Qing did not have any difficulty and provided convenience.
Xiao Yan was so anxious that after the gryphon flew for a long time and could see Canaan City in the distance, he couldn't wait to spread his purple cloud wings and rush towards the academy.
Arriving at the entrance of the college, Xiao Ning, who had been waiting for a long time, waved to him: "Cousin Xiao Yan, this way."
Under the leadership of Xiao Ning, he came to the Yajing pavilion where instructor Ruolin lived.
Xiao Ning opened the door directly and walked in with Xiao Yan in a hurry.
When they walked to the hall, Instructor Ruolin was sitting on a chair with a worried look on her face.
"Teacher Ruolin." Xiao Yan greeted politely.
"Go in... Your eldest brother and second brother are here. I don't know what they said. Yu'er was crying so hard... Go and see for yourself." Ruolin looked sad.
Xiao Yan quickly walked through the hall and walked to a room at the back.
He knocked on the door.
The door creaked open, and it was Xiao Yu who opened the door with a pale face and a haggard expression.
When she saw Xiao Yan, she cried "Wow" again, and Xiao Yan was stunned.
He had never seen Xiao Yu look so weak in front of him.
"Don't cry, don't cry, tell me if you have anything to say...what exactly happened." Xiao Yan persuaded in a panic.
Xiao Ning walked forward silently, patted Xiao Yan on the shoulder, and motioned for him to walk in.
After entering the house, Xiao Ning closed the door. The atmosphere in the house was depressing and suffocating.
Xiao Yan saw a bed and the man lying on the bed at a glance.
Looking at the man with closed eyes and a pale face, Xiao Yan couldn't help shouting: "Second brother!"
Next to the bed, there was another man sitting with a somewhat scholarly temperament, it was Xiao Ding.
Xiao Meng, Xun'er, and Xiao Mei were all sitting on chairs nearby.
"Ahem..." Xiao Li coughed and sat up with his hands on his hands.
"Second brother, what happened? Who hurt you like this?" Xiao Yan stepped forward quickly.
"It's okay. When I was passing through the Black Corner Domain, I had a little conflict with someone and was injured." Xiao Li replied.
After Xiao Yan used his soul to explore, he judged that although Xiao Li was a little weak, it was not a big problem. Sometimes, fights between students in the inner courtyard result in more serious injuries than this.
However, his heart did not relax, but became even more tense.
If only Xiao Li was injured, Xiao Yu would not behave like this and the atmosphere at the scene would not be so heavy.
He looked at Xiao Ding, who hesitated for a moment and finally said in a slow, trembling voice: "The Xiao family...is gone."
Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment, his mind went blank, and he seemed unable to digest the news. After a long time, he asked in an unbelievable tone: "What...what do you mean?"
"The Xiao family was wiped out...only a few of us are left." Xiao Ding replied in a hoarse voice full of pain.
Xiao Yan's face suddenly turned pale and he took three steps back.
Xiao Meng quickly stepped forward to support him so that he would not fall.
After a while, Xiao Yan asked with red eyes: "What's going on? Where is my father?"
"Dead, all dead... the first elder, the second elder... my father... no one from the Xiao family in Wutan City is alive."
"What's going on? Who...did...?" Xiao Yan asked with a ferocious expression on his face and gritted his teeth.
Xiao Ding and Xiao Li looked at Yun Meng.
Xiao Yan followed their gazes and frowned as he looked at this young man wearing Yunlan Zongyue's white uniform with an expressionless face.
Yun Meng answered in a calm, emotionless tone:
"Let me answer this question... According to the last intelligence I received, it was the Jiale family and the Oba family who attacked the Xiao family.
"They seemed to be dissatisfied with the expansion of the Xiao family in Wutan City, so they joined forces to eliminate it.
"But I only know this little bit... Yunlan Sect passed the news to me as soon as it received it, and no further investigation has been conducted.
"But I think there are probably many hidden secrets behind this matter. First of all, it is strange that the Jiale family and the Oba family suddenly joined forces to attack the Xiao family.
"Even if they have common interests, they will not provoke such a big dispute casually... Because they are enemies of each other, if the Xiao family is gone, they will be each other's biggest competitors."
"You are..." Xiao Yan looked at him with a puzzled look.
"My name is Yun Meng, and I am Yun Yun's junior brother... I came here on the orders of my senior sister to give you something." Yun Meng showed a gentle smile on his face.
Yun Yun... Xiao Yan's eyes showed some longing and tenderness, which quickly disappeared. The Xiao family's affairs occupied his entire mind, and he had no time to think about these romantic affairs.
Yun Meng said to Xiao Yan: "Let's talk alone, it won't take up too much of your time."
Looking at his deep eyes, Xiao Yan glanced at Xiao Meng and Xun'er, hesitated for a moment, and agreed.
