Fortunately, however, this farce did not last long.

Because there are always some legitimate descendants of the Xiao family who get up early.

The summer is hot.

There are many people who can’t sleep.

Different from the warm quilt in winter.

In the summer, when it is six or seven o'clock and the heat and sunshine come up, it can be said that there is no value in staying in bed. Therefore, it is wiser to go out for a walk and breathe some fresh air in the coolness of the early morning than to go out for a walk under the scorching sun at noon.

Especially the servants were noisy.

They even got into a fight.

Delayed the original time.

It would seem a bit strange to go out for a walk after four o'clock.

So, nowadays, going out for a walk at around five o'clock is considered normal.

Those old men and women who go to the morning market basically go out at this time.

The kitchen is located inside the Xiao family.

Stop by for breakfast.

This is a choice that many people would make.

Therefore, the first one to arrive at the scene was also blocked outside and unable to come in. He looked a little unruly. Although he did not have a wide range of accessories, his clothes were all silk, and he wore a tiger-head arm guard on his left arm. He looked to be about ten years old. When he looked up and found that those fighting were all his servants, his brows were immediately furrowed, and an invisible force surged out of his limbs and into his lungs. Soon, it turned into a loud shout that came out of his mouth, like a big loudspeaker, which instantly suppressed the shouting and cursing of the thirty or forty servants present, as well as the voices of the many maids who did not participate in the fight but stood aside and whispered.

Yes.

In this short time.

Many loyal servants also joined in.

Although their joining will not make the situation better.

Instead it will make the situation worse.

He was scolded even more harshly by one of the legitimate sons of the Xiao family's side branch who arrived first.

"How dignified!"

"Blocking the road, gathering to fight...what do you think this place is?"

"The Colosseum?"

"Stop it all!"

"Someone who understands!"

"Tell me what happened!"

The fighting spirit exploded, and weak air waves spread out to the surroundings with the body as the core. The third stage of the fighting spirit was clearly visible. In addition to suppressing the entire audience with his own strength, many members of the Xiao family who had heard the sound but had not yet arrived at the scene quickened their pace.

It’s just that, for things like these, the people at the scene are not aware of them.

Seeing no one answered.

The young man wearing the tiger-head arm guard was even more displeased.

Waited three or four seconds.

See no one has come forward yet.

Suddenly, he shouted angrily: "Are your ears stuffed with donkey hair, or are you dumb?"

If there were any members of the Xiao family present.

Or the Xiao family.

In short, they are the members of the Xiao family who are recorded in the family tree.

He would never dare to scold like that.

Brothers, friends and brothers.

This is the rule of the big family.

Although the Xiao family is not big, whether it is big or not depends on who you compare it with. Compared with the royal family of the Gama Empire, the Xiao family is indeed not big, but compared with ordinary people, the Xiao family can be called a wealthy family. Although Wutan City is not as good as the imperial city of the Gama Empire, nor as good as some wealthy cities in the Gama Empire, it can still be ranked third-rate, much better than those border cities. As one of the three major families in Wutan City, even if the City Lord's Mansion and the auction house of the Mitel family are included, and some of the rights are distributed, the Xiao family can still control more than one-fifth of Wutan City's industries, which can directly affect the daily lives of the more than five million permanent residents and the millions of mobile population in Wutan City. It is not an exaggeration to call it a wealthy family.

Therefore, the Xiao family's family rules have always been very strict.

Although I can't control what you say in private.

But on the surface it can still be controlled.

However, at this moment, whether those who were fighting or those who were watching were all servants. This young man, who looked to be about ten years old, naturally had no scruples when he started to curse.

However, he didn't have time to show off his power.

Another leisurely voice came from not far away.

Quite rude.

Also quite rash.

"Cousin Xiao Jing is so angry."

"It's so early in the morning... which blind servant has offended you?"

"Is it worth your anger?"

"Might as well say it."

"Cousin, please don't do it. I don't have those concerns."

"I'll take care of these stupid things for you!"

Although it is a rule for brothers to be friendly and respectful to each other.

But this does not affect the sarcastic run.

Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes.

No matter it is a big family or a small family, even if it is a couple in a family, it is hard to avoid conflicts in their normal life.

Therefore, discord is the norm.

He was wearing a white suit, with a light red jade pendant hanging around his waist. He looked thin but full of energy. He was holding a folding fan. He looked to be about ten years old. At some point, he was sitting on the wall, looking down at the farce and his cousin below.

Those words just now were full of implication of a run on the bank.

It was also coming out of his mouth.

"It's none of your business, Xiao Ke!"

"I don't need your help."

"Just take care of yourself."

"Like you just said... I don't want to get angry so early in the morning."

"So, don't make things difficult for me."

"Don't make yourself unhappy!"

The young man named Xiao Jing, who was wearing a tiger-head arm guard and was the first to arrive at the scene, responded sharply to the ridicule.

The young man in white clothes and the folding fan didn't care about this.

This isn't the first time they've clashed verbally.

Although he was young, he was not so young as to be angered by the opponent's counterattack.

Besides, he was the one who squeezed the other party first.

If you are broken by the other party's retort.

Instead, it shows his incompetence.

At this time, the competition is often about who can't help but get angry first.

However, then again.

A bank run is a bank run.

Provocation is provocation.

He doesn't want to fight with the other party yet.

The wrong occasion was one reason. The Xiao family had a special martial arts arena, so fighting anywhere other than the arena would violate family rules. Another reason was that their relationship had not yet become that rigid. At best, it was just the relationship between the mothers of both sides. To put it bluntly, the sisters looked down on each other, and even the next generation looked down on each other. But after all, they were of the same clan, and they should not go too far.

But the fact that he stopped pursuing the suspect relentlessly did not mean that the other members of the Xiao family who arrived at the scene later would also stop pursuing the suspect and do nothing.

Therefore, Xiao Jing's voice had just fallen.

On the side, another member of the Xiao family interrupted and said, "Brother Xiao Jing, what you said is a bit one-sided. Such a terrible thing happened. Brother Xiao Ke is a member of my Xiao family. What's wrong with saying a few words? Besides, is there nothing wrong with your attitude? It was so early in the morning, and you spread this matter with just one shout. What if it alarmed the elders and the clan leader? How do you plan to end it?"

Xiao Jing sneered.

Raise your left hand.

The tiger-head arm guard reflected layers of dazzling light in the early morning sun.

Across the air, he pointed at those servants who had finally stopped fighting, but were all covered in dust and dirt, some of them had vegetable leaves on their faces, and were frightened and standing in groups of three or five.

Then, he said confidently, "Xiao Yue, don't accuse me casually. When I got here, they were already fighting. If I didn't speak, that is, I didn't use my fighting spirit to amplify my voice... they wouldn't be able to hear me if I spoke normally. If I stepped down and personally intervened, these people would inevitably be beaten to a bloody pulp by me... Moreover, how could I, alone, separate thirty or forty people? My involvement would only make the situation even more uncontrollable... By then, it wouldn't be a fight between these people, but a gang fight, which would be an even greater crime!"

"That's very beautifully said."

"But what now?"

"Open your eyes and look for yourself...how many people are injured and bleeding?"

"This is a gang fight!"

"Instead of stopping it with thunderous means, you exaggerated the matter and couldn't tell which was more important... and yet you still claimed that you did nothing wrong..."

"it's good now."

"Things that could have been suppressed were completely made public by your shout."

"You're fine."

"where are they?"

The young man named Xiao Yue asked clearly.

Afterwards, he ignored Xiao Jing who was thinking about the answer.

He didn't pay any attention to Xiao Ke and others.

Including those members of the Xiao family who were rushing here but had not yet arrived at the scene.

Directly seize the right to speak.

He glanced at the servants with bloody heads.

There were also many maids about twenty or thirty meters away who had nothing to do with this matter.

He said in a deep voice: "Who was the first to make a move?"

"It's him, Ah Fu!"

"Yes, I testify that he was the first to attack!"

"I can testify to that, too."

"Bullshit, let me be fair...Although it was Ah Fu who swung his fist, before that, all of you pushed Ah Fu with your hands!"

"That's right. If we talk about fighting, you were the first ones to do it. You are blind and unreasonable... Ah Fu was carrying such a heavy food box, plus his own weight, but he was still knocked to the ground by Ah Nian. You should check your conscience and ask yourself if you can deceive everyone with this statement... Then, Ah Fu stopped Ah Nian and wanted to argue with him, but the others started to take sides, especially Xiao Feng, Jiang Zhong, and Ah Hao. Not only did you push Ah Fu, you also scolded him for being a good dog that doesn't block the road... What, just because you have a good master, you have learned to take advantage of the power of the master and think you can bully us?"

"We just pushed him, we didn't beat him or hit him. Besides, he was the one who scolded us first, saying we were blind... Stop barking, come and see for yourself if you can see anyone standing at this corner... As for his food box falling to the ground, that was just because he didn't hold it firmly. Look for the problem with yourself instead of blaming others. We don't mean to bully him!"

"Don't make yourself sound so righteous, I was right there... Ah Fu did call you blind, but you called me even dirtier, saying things like: I belong to Master Xiao Ding, the eldest son of the main branch, and you, Ah Fu, are just an attendant of the eldest son of the side branch. Not to mention bumping into you, you deserve to be beaten up!"

"I never said that!"

"I testify that he is lying!"

"you said before!"

"We can also testify!"

It was still normal at the beginning. Although they were pointing fingers at each other, they were soon able to distinguish between the first group of people and the rest of the people who joined in later, because the servants who joined in later basically had no idea of ​​the cause and they were fighting solely based on their relationships.

Just as Xiaodie had found out before.

come or not?

What are you doing?

Someone is bullying us!

Come, let’s stand shoulder to shoulder!

As for how they bullied, it doesn’t matter, at least not at that time.

So, when facing interrogation.

If you don't know, just shut up.

at this moment.

The person who knew about this was obviously one of the participants in the initial outbreak of the conflict.

"enough!"

"What's the noise about?"

The young man named Xiao Yue frowned, and seeing that these people were about to fight, he roared, intimidating these servants who insisted on their own opinions. Then, he used his brains and chose Ah Nian, who was mentioned in the confrontation just now, that is, the servant who bumped into Ah Fu, and Xiao Ding, the follower of the eldest son of the main line, and instructed him: "That round-faced servant, you tell me first, what is going on... If anyone dares to interrupt, don't blame me for the crime!"

"What if I want to interrupt, Brother Xiao Yue?"

"Isn't it not good for you to take sides like this?"

"I know that I, Xiao Ning, cannot compare to my brother Xiao Ding."

"But I'm only five years younger than him!"

"If you think he has potential, you can join him. When he becomes the clan leader, he might reward you with the position of elder... maybe the position of great elder that my grandfather holds now?"

Xiao Ning, who was only six years old, walked over with big strides.

Breathing control is not particularly stable.

But the fluctuation of fighting spirit is still very obvious.

Obviously, it has entered the stage.

That is the first stage of fighting spirit.

Especially these sarcastic words made Xiao Yue speechless for a moment.

As the grandson of the eldest elder of the Xiao family.

Although Xiao Ning has no power at all.

Much smaller than him.

He is thirteen years old.

Seven years older than the other.

Two years older than Xiao Ding.

But this is not a reason for him to underestimate Xiao Ning.

The composition of the Xiao family is very complicated, because no matter whether it is the main branch or the side branch, they are all considered internal members of the Xiao family. The opposite of internal members are external members. In Wudong's worldview, they are similar to the main family and branch family of the Lin family in the Great Yan Dynasty. At the coming-of-age ceremony at the age of fifteen, clansmen who reach the seventh stage of fighting spirit and above are regarded as internal members and have the qualifications to enter the martial arts room to choose martial arts, paving the way for their future path as fighters. Clan members below the seventh stage of fighting spirit will be sent out to manage various industries, unless they have made great contributions in the later period, or discovered some special talents, such as becoming an alchemist. Otherwise, this is basically the end of their lives.

Of course.

We can also place our hopes on the next generation.

If the next generation can reach the seventh level of fighting spirit or above before the age of fifteen, they can also return to the Xiao family. Although it is difficult to guarantee the next generation, because the fate of each generation is decided at the age of fifteen.

To put it bluntly, if Xiao Ning was below the seventh level of Dou Qi at the age of fifteen.

Even though he is the grandson of the great elder.

They will also be expelled.

No longer an internal member of the Xiao family.

Instead, they become external workers.

Of course, the focus is still on the skills, because the fighter and the subsequent training are inseparable from the skills. A skills book can be regarded as a family heirloom. In the outside world, it is something that cannot be bought even with money. Often only big forces will occasionally auction skills, and most of them are fighting skills, and there are very few mental methods.

His qualifications can only be described as average.

At the age of thirteen, he only had the fifth level of fighting spirit.

I want to break through two sections in the next two years.

To be honest, it is a bit difficult.

If he offended Xiao Ning, even if the eldest elder of the Xiao family did not target him due to his status as an elder, if he wanted to cause trouble for him or make things difficult for him, it would only take a word.

The point is that he has something to hide!

Whoever speaks first will take the initiative!

He wanted to use this method to show his goodwill to Xiao Ding, the eldest son of the main line, but he didn't expect to be caught by Xiao Ning, the grandson of the great elder. What's more, the worst thing was that the party who was wronged was Xiao Ning's servant, which was like beating a dog in front of its master.

So, it’s really hard to make a big deal about it at the moment.

At least he is not qualified enough to compete with Xiao Ning.

Unless someone of the same age as Xiao Ning stands up...

"I'll see what's going on."

"Is it okay, cousin Xiao Ning?"

As Xiao Yue looked relieved, Xiao Li came over in the morning light and locked eyes with Xiao Ning, full of pressure: "Big brother is busy with important things... I should be able to handle this little thing... Or is it that the Great Elder has passed on to you the experience of managing the family, and you think you are better than me and Big Brother?"
