Campus Beauty, Scamp Master

In the courtyard of the Nan Family, Nan Huo was half-kneeling on the ground. In front of him were several elders of the Nan Family who were listening to his report.    

    

"Besides that, the outer perimeter of the Nan Family is a hot spring. Due to careful considerations, I had Nan Tian bring a few powerful disciples to patrol the area. Furthermore... I asked him to close the scenic area first to prevent the Blue Luan and the others from entering. They'll sneak in from the scenic area!"    

    

Nan Huo's thoughts were very clear. He told all the elders of Nan Family about his preparations in detail.    

    

When the elders heard this, they all nodded their heads in satisfaction.    

    

"En, you have done a good job in this matter. Our Nan Family will definitely prosper if we have a young and capable disciple like you!"    

    

The Third Elder looked at Nan Huo with satisfaction and said with a nod.    

    

There were a total of five elders in charge in the Nan Family. The Third Elder's temper was the most docile amongst the five elders, but his strength was the strongest besides the Great Elder.    

    

It had been a long time since he stepped into the Intention Flower Stage, and the Martial Intent had already condensed to a terrifying extent. Although he had a head of white hair, his body was indeed very sturdy. When he walked, he looked like a tiger with a strong wind. He didn't look like an old man in his 70s or 80s at all.    

    

He was more like a strong middle-aged man in his 30s or 40s.    

    

A domineering and resolute aura was emitted from his body. Every disciple of the Nan Family who saw him had a respectful expression on their faces.    

    

Nan Huo's expression remained the same when he heard the praise of the Third Elder. He bowed slightly and said, "Thank you for your praise, Third Elder. It was all for the young lady!"    

    

The Fourth Elder was a cold and indifferent person. He didn't like to talk. At this moment, he was wearing thin clothes, a singlet, and beach pants. His body was as thin as firewood, especially his legs. They were extremely skinny, like broken branches of a withered tree.    

    

His entire body was emitting a faintly discernible aura. When he walked, there was no sound at all. It was very strange and horrifying.    

    

"As long as that Qing Luan girl and Wang Xiao are not stupid, they will definitely not take the main path. They will definitely come from the scenic area. They should send more people to intercept them in the scenic area. At that time, it would be best to catch them and bring them back."    

    

Fourth Elder's voice was hoarse, like the sound of a broken record. It was ear-piercing and unpleasant to the ears.    

    

"Although Nan Tian's strength isn't comparable to Nan Huo's, he is still an Intention Flower Stage Expert. With him around, capturing Qing Luan and Wang Xiao will be much easier. There's no need to be nervous!"    

    

The Second Elder said with a faint smile.    

    

Among the five elders, the only female elder had white hair. When she smiled, the wrinkles on her face were squeezed together, giving her a kind look.    

    

She was also the laziest of the five elders, and she was not willing to interfere with the matters of the clan. She usually liked to raise flowers and animals.    

    

If it was not for the matter this time, it was because she wanted to get the Silver Lotus Seed for Little Girl Nan Xi and she had watched Little Girl Nan Xi grow up, she would not have bothered.    

    

"Second sister, you are too calm. No matter what time it is, we cannot let our guard down."    

    

Seeing the indifferent look of the Second Elder, the Fifth Elder who was in charge of the clan's affairs couldn't help but speak.    

    

Second Elder seemed to be uninterested in Fifth Elder. His wrinkled face revealed a hint of contempt. Leng! He snorted: "You miser, what do you know about life? What do you fight and kill every day for? Can't you just sit down and have a good chat? "    

    

"Second Sister, you!"    

    

Upon hearing the Second Elder call him a miser, the Fifth Elder, who was already over sixty years old, immediately revealed an expression of embarrassment and anger. He glared at her furiously.    

    

The two of them had grown up playing around since childhood. They always liked to bicker.    

    

"Alright, stop quarreling."    

    

At this time, the usually calm Great Elder also coughed lightly, interrupting the conversation between the two.    

    

The Second Elder and Fifth Elder looked at each other before closing their mouths.    

    

Immediately, First Elder continued, "Everything we did was for Nan Xi's illness. The strange illness in her body will flare up once every three years. Every time it would flare up, all the meridians in her body would reverse and a strange black hole would be formed in her Dantian. After devouring her lifespan, she would have one more month before the coming of age ceremony. If this strange disease erupts again, I'm afraid that she will..."    

    

Speaking up to this point, First Elder couldn't help but become silent.    

    

When the other elders heard this, they could not help but become silent. Each and every one of them had a worried expression on their faces.    

    

The Nan Family was one of the five major powers in the southern region of Jiangnan City. They were always arrogant and overbearing when it came to dealing with outsiders. They never showed any mercy to outsiders. They were always cold and arrogant, and they wouldn't care if the other party was dead or alive.    

    

However, they treated their own people with utmost sincerity, and they didn't show any false feelings.    

    

In the eyes of the people of the Nan Family, as long as one was a disciple of the Nan Family, he or she wouldn't be abandoned. He or she was an important member of the Nan Family.    

    

Therefore, even as a female member of Nan Family, she was extremely happy.    

    

Because they didn't need to adopt the same method as the other Ancient Martial Family and ancient martial forces. In order to expand their influence, they had to adopt the method of marriage.    

    

The female members of the Nan Family could freely choose their own marriage and love.    

    

The men of the Nan Family had instilled a belief in them since they were young. It was to become stronger, so strong that they could protect the female members of the Nan Family!    

    

Therefore, the people who were born in the Nan Family were very happy!    

    

However, when they were dealing with outsiders, their methods were ruthless and decisive.    

    

"To other Ancient Martial Cultivators, the Silver Lotus Seed is able to repair the meridians. It's just a rare medicinal herb that can help one break through to the next realm. But to Little Girl Nan Xi... It is a herb that can stop Little Girl Nan Xi's dantian from reversing. Devour lifespan."    

    

At this time, the Great Elder spoke once again, and spoke with conviction, "Therefore, this time, we must obtain the Silver Lotus Seed from Wang Xiao, even if the opponent is Lord of Forest City, Soulreaper Hall Lord, and Ksitigarbha King's successor!"    

    

The Great Elder's voice wasn't loud, but it was filled with passion and passion. It made people's blood boil uncontrollably.    

    

When his eyes turned to the other elders and the disciples of the Nan Family, everyone felt their blood boiling. With a swoosh, they stood up from their chairs, straightened their backs, and had a solemn expression on their faces.    

    

"Don't worry, Great Elder. We will definitely get the Silver Lotus Seed from Wang Xiao!"    

    

Nan Huo's face was also flushed red. With a roar, he shouted at the Great Elder.    

    

Seeing the reaction of the crowd, a satisfied expression emerged on the Great Elder's face.    

    

Right at this moment, a disciple of Nan Family rushed in from outside the door in a panic. His voice was trembling as he said, "Great, Great Elder, they have come in!"    

    

The Great Elder was startled when he heard this. "Who has come in?"    

    

"Lin, Lord of Forest City, Wang Xiao!"    

    

As soon as these words came out from the disciples of Nan Family, the entire hall was in an uproar.    

    

How dare this Wang Xiao attack their Nan Family?    

    

It was obvious that he didn't put the Nan Family in his eyes!
