A Family of Hopeless Romantics, Except for the Evil Little Junior Brother-Chapter 107: The Xiao Family in Crisis
Su Family.
“This Su Wan girl is getting more and more disobedient, she actually went to the Xiao family to cancel the engagement behind my back!
I’ve always acted with integrity—after this, where will my credibility be!?”
The current head of the Su family, Su Wan’s grandfather Su Tong, was furious.
He had only just learned about the canceled engagement.
Su Wan’s father, Su Chunlai, glanced cautiously at Su Tong.
“Father, now’s not the time to blame Xiao Wan, it won’t be too late to scold her later.
I heard this caused quite the commotion.
And that Xiao Ran stabbed himself in the chest with a sword and swore an oath.
If the heavens let him live, one day he’ll definitely return the humiliation he suffered.
And the thing is, Xiao Ran actually survived. With a temperament like his, if he really…”
Su Tong snapped, “There’s no cowardly blood in the Xiao line—if he ever rises to power, he’ll return this disgrace tenfold!!”
“Father, things have already come to this. What’s done is done. Why not act early and eliminate the problem once and for all?”
Su Tong’s eyes bulged with rage, “I, Su Tong, have lived my life with integrity! And besides, that old ancestor of the Xiao family and I are sworn brothers. What is it you want me to do!?”
“I…”
Su Chunlai hesitated.
“I was thinking of killing Xiao Ran, to get rid of the threat…”
All the Su family members turned their eyes toward Su Chunlai in unison.
Su Chunlai’s face turned beet red, ashamed beyond words.
Even he felt his plan was a bit over the line.
Su Tong said in a deep voice, “Kill Xiao Ran? Will that really get rid of the threat? Maybe we should just wipe out the entire Xiao family. Burn some extra paper money for them next year to make up for it.”
Su Chunlai: Huh?
“Why aren’t you moving already!?”
“Y-Yes!”
“............”
Panlong City, Xiao Family.
After arriving in Panlong City, Jiang Luoshui didn’t charge in recklessly.
She waited until the dead of night, when the wind was high, before preparing to sneak into the Xiao household.
She held a Breathing Suppression Pill in her mouth and was about to flip over the wall into the Xiao family.
But just as she flipped over—she blacked out in the next second.
Her entire consciousness faded away.
From beneath the ground, a pair of ruthless iron hands shot out and yanked Jiang Luoshui down underground.
The knockout drug Li Xuanxiao had given her was enough to make her sleep for three months.
Causing trouble again the moment I look away!
Li Xuanxiao buried Jiang Luoshui underground directly, a lesson to keep her from always acting on impulse.
He put away the Recording Stone and had already documented everything—from her departure from Mount Shushan under a made-up excuse, sneaking off to Panlong City, to trying to break into the Xiao household.
This was a serious violation of Mount Shushan’s code. Jiang Luoshui was definitely getting punished when she got back.
After finishing all that, Li Xuanxiao was just about to leave.
Suddenly, his divine sense picked up several powerful auras approaching in the darkness.
What’s going on?
“............”
Under the moonlight and the cover of magical artifacts,
Three Nascent Soul cultivators and six Golden Core cultivators rushed straight toward the Xiao family.
Annihilation!! Leave no one alive.
The Xiao family had long since declined. The strongest among them now was the head of the family—Xiao Ran’s father, Xiao Chengshan—who was at the Nascent Soul Stage.
From the looks of it, the Xiao family was doomed this time.
“Hiss~”
Underground, Li Xuanxiao sucked in a mouthful of noodles.
So terrifying!
There were actually three Nascent Soul cultivators, and they were clearly targeting the Xiao family?
Li Xuanxiao thought in surprise.
Where would Jiang Luoshui even find helpers this powerful?
But soon, Li Xuanxiao dismissed that thought.
There was no way Jiang Luoshui pulled this off.
Someone else wanted to wipe out the Xiao family!!
Once that idea was confirmed, Li Xuanxiao couldn’t help but feel a little anxious.
He was currently using a clone, which didn’t have the same combat strength as his real body.
If the attackers truly intended to destroy the Xiao family, it wouldn’t be easy for him to stop them.
Heavenly powers, bless the family!
From here on out, Xiao Ran would likely speed full-throttle down the path of darkness.
“Who goes there, visiting my Xiao family in the dead of night!”
A shout echoed from the Xiao family ancestral home.
A figure then shot into the sky.
The Xiao family head—Xiao Chengshan.
Xiao Chengshan felt the pressure and tensed up.
Three Nascent Soul cultivators!
“Honored guests, forgive my rudeness, but what urgent business brings you here?”
“Cut the crap, Xiao Chengshan—prepare to die!”
The Nascent Soul cultivator in the lead looked coldly at Xiao Chengshan, not intending to waste a single word. With a flick of his right hand, a flash of cold light shot from his sleeve.
In the blink of an eye, a razor-sharp flying sword gleaming with deadly cold light appeared in the air and shot straight toward Xiao Chengshan.
Faced with this sudden attack, Xiao Chengshan didn’t panic in the slightest.
His eyes widened and he roared, “Lion’s Roar Technique!”
The Xiao family’s ancestral technique—Lion’s Roar.
In an instant, a powerful soundwave rippled outward from Xiao Chengshan at the center.
The wave was almost tangible, and everywhere it passed, the air seemed to tear apart with a piercing screech.
These attackers clearly came prepared—two Nascent Soul cultivators were assigned to deal with Xiao Chengshan.
Meanwhile, another Nascent Soul cultivator moved like a ghost, bringing six fierce shadows down from the sky into the Xiao family.
These six were all Golden Core Stage powerhouses, exuding a terrifying killing intent as they prepared for a massacre.
The Xiao family elders’ faces changed drastically at the sight, but being seasoned veterans, they quickly reacted.
The Grand Elder in front let out a furious shout, leapt forward, and thrust his longsword—now a flash of cold light—at the Nascent Soul attacker.
The other elders weren’t to be outdone, unleashing their own ultimate moves.
In a flash, magical artifacts lit up the air and spells boomed nonstop.
Close-range combat erupted fiercely.
Blades and swords clashed wildly, energy exploded in all directions, houses collapsed, and trees were destroyed.
Nascent Soul and Golden Core cultivators each unleashed their signature techniques—some commanding flying swords, others wielding spells that summoned the power of heaven and earth…
Hiding in the shadows, Li Xuanxiao stayed calm and quickly devised a counterplan.
His clone didn’t have the strength for head-on battle.
He could only assist.
No matter what, the Xiao family must survive.
At the very least, he had to protect Xiao Ran’s father.
Luckily, the clone brought three Crane-Beak Silver Needles this time.
Li Xuanxiao used the Earth Escape Technique to swiftly tunnel toward the Xiao family.
At this moment, inside the Xiao household, one Nascent Soul expert was fighting four Xiao family elders alone.
Though these four elders were also Nascent Soul Stage, they were simply too old.
Their lifespan was nearly up, and there was no hope of further breakthroughs.
Like leaves in the wind or candles in the rain.
The Nascent Soul attacker quickly drove the four elders into retreat.

Another strike came.
The Nascent Soul cultivator dodged easily—this sword move was full of openings.
Hmm?
Wait a second!
Something’s off with this sword’s aura.
Poison!!
How laughable. As a Nascent Soul cultivator, you think I can still be poisoned…
