Chapter 28: Chapter 28: Buy Your Seat with My Pill!
Editor: Exodus Tales

“But…”

Xiao Yuran wanted to speak again, but Xiao Yuhui’s face darkened, “But what? Sit down when I tell you to sit, aren’t you going to listen to your sister now?”

“Oh.”

Xiao Yuran sat down huffily, convinced that Su Han was her husband, so she couldn’t stand anyone scolding her husband.

“So, you are Su Han?”

The old man sized up Su Han again, letting out a cold laugh, “Nothing impressive about you. How could the Second Miss of Xiao Family fancy you? I heard you had some talent before, but then you succumbed to the demon’s way, and all your Dragon Veins were severed. Although it’s said you’ve recovered now, I know that a restored Dragon Vein never recuperates with the same speed anymore!”

“That is to say, although you’ve recovered your previous Eight Dragon Veins, the cultivation process will be extremely difficult for you from now on, and it is even possible that you’ll be stuck in the Dragon Vein Realm for a lifetime!”

The old man wasn’t spouting nonsense; many who had their Dragon Veins severed managed to recover after great difficulties but were always stuck at the Dragon Vein Realm, making no further progress.

Comparatively speaking, he was still a ‘rubbish’.

“Hmph, just being at the Dragon Vein Realm you dream of marrying the Second Miss of the Xiao Family? Dream on!”

“Family Head, I oppose this marriage!”

“Dragon Vein Realm, just rubbish, what qualifies him to be favoured by the Second Miss?”

The others also started speaking up, while Xiao Hengshan, who was sitting in the main seat, remained silent.

“What are you doing!”

Xiao Yuran became anxious and said, “I am willing to marry Su Han. I like him; why should you oppose?”

“This little miss is too naive.”

Su Han shook his head silently, easily realizing these people weren’t truly opposing but just trying to show this live-in son-in-law a lesson.

“Bring her.”

Xiao Yuhui motioned, “The Second Miss isn’t feeling well, take her down to rest.”

“Yes.”

Someone immediately stepped forward.

“I am not feeling unwell, don’t touch me!”

Xiao Yuran struggled but was still taken down.

“Su Han.”

Xiao Yuhui narrowed her beautiful eyes, staring at Su Han and slowly said, “I remember, back at the Su Family, you told me you would show the Xiao Family what a calamity means.”

At her words, everyone’s gaze fell on Su Han, a surge of Dragon Spirit Realm pressure emerging and pressing down on Su Han.

But Su Han was completely unmoved, his face indifferent as water, appearing unaffected.

“What, afraid to speak now?” Xiao Yuhui continued.

Su Han raised his eyes, calmly said, “Standing for so long, doesn’t anyone offer my father a seat?”

Xiao Yuhui furrowed her brows, remaining silent.

The old man who had spoken earlier then said, “Hmph, a phoenix that fell into water isn’t better than a chicken, do you still think this is the Su Family?”

“Then, how about I buy a seat for my father?”

Su Han said indifferently, “A High-Grade Pill to buy my father a seat.”

The crowd was stunned, clearly not expecting Su Han to say that.

A seat, wasting a High-Grade Pill?

“Sheer nonsense!”

The old man again shouted, “Do you think High-Grade Pills are cabbages by the roadside? With your current situation, forget a High-Grade Pill, you probably don’t even have a Low-Grade Pill, right?”

“Two,” Su Han said calmly.

“Don’t be so absurd, you—”

“Five.”

Before the old man could finish, Su Han interrupted him.

“Su Han, don’t promise too much, that is a High-Grade—”

“Ten.”

“You can’t produce them, how will you—”

“Twenty.”

Su Han still spoke in a calm manner, a tranquility that made the hearts of everyone present skip a beat.

High-Grade Pills, huh? One is worth at least 8000 Gold Coins, and twenty of them amount to a staggering 160,000 Gold Coins!

“Summon someone, bring the seats!”

Xiao Hengshan finally spoke, waving his hand grandly, immediately having two seats placed behind Su Han and Su Yunming.

“The other seat is a gift,” Xiao Hengshan said.

“No need, if the Xiao Family wishes for me to stand, I will stand,” Su Han said.

Xiao Yuhui saw his indifferent demeanor and felt infuriated. She truly didn’t know where Su Han got such confidence from.

“Hmm, since you offered twenty High-Grade Pills for a seat, now that the seat is here, don’t go back on your word!” the elder coldly snorted.

Su Han took out two Jade Bottles from his waist and threw them directly, which the elder caught.

The elder frowned and glanced at Su Han incredulously, and immediately opened the Jade Bottles.

Instantly, a strong Pill Fragrance wafted from within the bottles, not just reaching him, but filling the entire council hall.

“Is it really High-Grade Pills?”

“Twenty High-Grade Pills, worth at least 160,000 Gold Coins!”

“Where did this kid get so many pills from? He couldn’t have plundered the Su Family’s treasury before leaving, could he?”

Murmurs of discussion spread, and the attendees were all somewhat shocked, looking at Su Han in disbelief.

“Where did these pills come from?” Xiao Yuhui asked.

“What does it have to do with you?” Su Han retorted.

“You!”

Xiao Yuhui was instantly infuriated.

“These two bottles of pills, I’m using them to buy a seat for my father.”

Su Han spoke indifferently, “Later on, I will have someone bring twenty bottles of High-Grade Pills, each containing ten pills. Half of them, consider them your compensation for your previous trip to the Su Family, and the other half…”

At this point, Su Han paused.

Everyone looked at him, even Xiao Hengshan opened his slightly closed eyes, seemingly waiting for what he would say next.

A moment later, Su Han finally spoke.

“The other half, I want to tell you…not to look down on others with disdain!”

“Hmm?”

The crowd was startled and then became enraged!

“Su Han, do you know where you are? Do you think you are still in the Su Family?”

“Such audacity, to speak to us like that!”

“You are audacious!”

Many Guest Elders stood up, as if ready to take action at any moment.

“Enough.”

Xiao Hengshan, who had been silent, finally spoke. He pressed his hand down, and the elder and others sat back down.

“What, the usually silent Head of the Xiao Family finally wants to speak?” Su Han slightly raised his brow.

“How dare you speak to my father like that?” Xiao Yuhui immediately shouted angrily.

“Xiao Yuhui, didn’t you ask me once, while I was in the Su Family, I said that if Xiao Family dared to act recklessly, I would make Xiao Family face annihilation?”

Su Han’s voice also turned cold: “Let me tell you now, when I was in the Su Family, I dared to say that. In the Xiao Family, in front of you, in front of the Head of the Xiao Family, in front of all of you, I, Su Han… still dare to say it!”

“Young man, such arrogance at such a young age isn’t good,” Xiao Hengshan stared at Su Han.

“Arrogant? Hahaha!”

As Su Han laughed heartily, his body shook suddenly, and a stunning glow burst forth.

“Dragon Vein?”

“Eleven Dragon Veins?”

“Heavens, how is this possible?!”

Looking at the eleven dazzlingly luminous Dragon Veins on Su Han’s body, everyone’s eyes widened, falling into shock.
