Chapter 27: Chapter 27: Xiao Family’s Dismounting Power?
Editor: Exodus Tales

Gazing at the departing forces of Chen Family, Lin Chengsong felt his heart plunge to rock bottom.

As for Su Yunchen, Su Yunpeng and others, their brows were deeply furrowed.

“Su Han, that damned cur, sure is lucky to have someone protect his life like that.”

“But this second Miss of the Xiao Family, she’s actually so beautiful, and seems to have quite a deep relationship with Su Han. Isn’t this bastard the one who would rather die than marry Xiao Yuran?”

Both men were secretly criticizing in their hearts.

Xiao Yuhui said, “Su Han is a scion of the Su Family, so…”

“I am no longer a member of the Su Family.”

Su Han interrupted Xiao Yuhui, “Just now, the three heads of the Su Family, in order not to implicate themselves, have expelled my father and me from the family.”

“Oh?”

Xiao Yuhui’s gaze swept toward Su Yunchen and the others, who instantly lowered their heads.

“What a vicious heart.”

Xiao Yuhui indifferently said, “That’s for the best. Su Han, from now on, you can live with Uncle Xiao at our Xiao Family.”

Su Han remained silent, not speaking.

He knew that Xiao Yuhui was trying to win face for him. Although he was not afraid of Lin Chengsong and the others, he could not let them lose face.

“Young Master Han, I am willing to follow you!”

A shadow suddenly ran out, it was indeed Pang Qing, Hu Feng, and Zhang Hai.

“Why didn’t I see you following him when Su Han was expelled from the family just now?” Xiao Yuhui frowned.

“We only just found out about it!” Pang Qing said anxiously.

Su Han understood them and immediately smiled, “Good, if you wish to follow, then come along.”

“Yes!”

The three were overjoyed; they truly wanted to follow Su Han.

“Shall we… go?” As Xiao Yuhui said this, she glanced at Lin Chengsong.

Lin Chengsong didn’t dare to make a peep, the ferocious aura he had displayed earlier having vanished.

“Husband, father, let’s go,” Xiao Yuran said sweetly to Su Yunming.

“Hahaha…”

Su Yunming laughed heartily, “A blessing in disguise indeed! To think that I, Su Yunming, could have such a well-behaved and beautiful daughter-in-law, this life is truly worth it!”

“I haven’t agreed yet,” Su Han rolled his eyes.

“You brat, is this something you can decide? If your old man says it’s agreed, then you must agree!” Su Yunming pretended to be angry.

Su Han muttered, “This isn’t like back when they wouldn’t let me marry her…”

“Damn it, son, back then I was just going along with you because you didn’t want to marry, how is Yuran unworthy of you?” Su Yunming spoke up loudly.

Su Han fell silent; he knew that Su Yunming was now feeling extremely content.

“I will pack up some things.”

After saying this, Su Han went back into his room, took the pills and materials with him, and then walked out of the Su Family again.

In the presence of everyone, they left openly and boldly, with not a soul daring to stop them.

…

The Xiao Family.

Thanks to Xiao Yuhui, the Xiao Family had risen high and truly become the number one family in Yuanshan County.

The Xiao Family’s residence was vast, its grounds several times larger than those of the other families, and it also had a far larger number of people, most of whom were Guest Elders who had heard of the family’s fame. There were many in the Dragon Blood Realm and not a few in the Dragon Spirit Realm.

All the way, Xiao Yuhui did not utter a word, her face cold, clearly still angry about the incident before.

She had come forward to save Su Han because of her sister’s involvement; it had nothing to do with Su Han.

It was Xiao Yuran, however, who chattered nonstop along the way, her adorable expressions and the occasional burst of humorous words endearing her immensely to her father-in-law, Su Yunming.

Su Han also had a favorable impression of her, but having lived for nearly a billion years, his state of mind was mature; as for Xiao Yuhui, for now, he truly did not harbor any special feelings.

“Greetings to the eldest daughter, second daughter!”

Upon arrival at the Xiao family’s gates, the guardians immediately paid their respects.

Xiao Yuhui nodded, and went on her way unconcerned.

Xiao Yuran then smiled and said, “Father, little Su Han, I have prepared rooms for you both. Go and rest first.”

“And us?” Pang Qing asked.

“You are also guest elders of the Xiao family; you will stay in the quarters designated for guest elders,” Xiao Yuran replied.

Pang Qing immediately relaxed and whispered to Su Han, “Young Master Han, don’t hesitate. Such a good girl is hard to find. If someone else snatches her up, you’ll regret it.”

“Get lost,” Su Han said.

“Hehe.”

With a laugh, Pang Qing and the others were led away by the Xiao family’s servants.

Su Han and Su Yunming, on the other hand, were personally escorted by Xiao Yuran to their quarters.

“Second Miss, the family head has ordered that the imperial son-in-law and the Head of the Su Family go to the decision-making hall,” a servant of the Xiao family said as soon as they arrived.

“Alright, we’re on our way.”

Xiao Yuran nodded, quickly tidied up the room for Su Han, and then the three of them went to the decision-making hall.

…

At this moment, in the decision-making hall, the Head of the Xiao Family, Xiao Hengshan, was seated in the main seat, with people filling the seats to both sides down below.

The Xiao family, unlike the Su family, had only one family head, and that was Xiao Hengshan.

Therefore, there wasn’t as much strife within the Xiao family; whatever Xiao Hengshan said, went.

Those seated on both sides were the guest elders of the Xiao family, also the trusted confidants of Xiao Hengshan.

When Su Han and his companions arrived, Xiao Yuhui was already seated to Xiao Hengshan’s right, and there was an empty seat on the left, obviously prepared for Xiao Yuran.

“Father,” Xiao Yuran said obediently.

“Hmm.”

Xiao Hengshan’s stern visage broke into a smile, and he beckoned to Xiao Yuran, “Second daughter, come sit by my side.”

“Yes.”

Xiao Yuran nodded lightly and walked over.

Su Han’s expression was calm, while Su Yunming’s face started to look somewhat unpleasant.

Because from the moment he entered, he had looked all around and found not a single seat for him and Su Han!

“Ah, dependent upon another’s roof, let it be…” Su Yunming thought to himself.

The Xiao family was clearly trying to intimidate him and his son. No matter what, he, Su Yunming, was once the Head of the Su Family, and here he didn’t even have a seat.

“How audacious!”

Just then, an elder suddenly slapped the chair, startling the pair.

“What is it?” Su Yunming frowned.

“To see the Head of the Xiao Family and not even perform the proper respects?” the elder chastised.

Xiao Hengshan sat there, expressionless, as if he had not seen anything.

“You’re audacious!”

Just as Su Han was about to speak, Xiao Yuran stood up and said, “Su Han is my husband, and Su Yunming is my father-in-law. How dare you speak to them like this?”

The elder was momentarily stunned, thinking to himself, “Are you really that blind? Can’t you see this is all instigated by your father?”

Surprised, Su Han turned to look at Xiao Yuran, his fondness for her soaring instantly.

“This young lady is quite endearing!” Su Han thought to himself with a silent chuckle.

“Yuran, sit down,”

Xiao Yuhui said, “You haven’t married Su Han yet; he isn’t your husband yet.”
