With cannon fodder, become the best in the world

Chapter 162: The Perfidious Representative

The second elder glanced at the first elder and said, "The patriarch was confused for a moment."

Patriarch: I am often confused, often confused, always confused! Don’t you like a confused Patriarch like me?

"Yanzhou is my biological son!" the patriarch said earnestly.

That's true. After all, he is my own son. Who wouldn't trust his own son?

"After all, he is a direct descendant of the clan. It is understandable that the head of the family called him back." Elder Zui Ri said, "His name was no longer on the family tree before, but didn't you add his name back later?"

When the elder said this, he felt angry. Jimo Yanzhou looked careless, but he didn't expect him to be so scheming. "He used a trick to make us add his name."

It's a trick of inflicting pain on one's self. If I had known this would happen, I should have hit him harder and killed him directly.

Elder Xianyu had seen Jimo Yanzhou in the trial ground, and he looked similar to Jimo. "At the beginning, they said that Jimo Yanzhou was not the son of the patriarch, so they exiled him from the clan. If he was not the son of the patriarch, he would not be able to enter the entrance of the trial ground at all."

Zuiri glanced at Elder Xianyu and said, "We are now facing the demons attacking the city. As for whether the Sixth Young Master is the son of the patriarch, there is nothing to discuss about this matter."

The second and third elders stood aside, neither of them speaking. They looked at the first elder, who said, "The demon army is large. In order to prevent them from being unwilling to withdraw after we hand over our men, we will temporarily place the young masters in the trial ground. There is a protective formation in the trial ground. Even if something unexpected happens, the protective formation can keep the young masters safe."

Elder Fu Guang said coldly: "You're backing down before the fight even starts. No wonder the Xiao family has looked down on our Jimo family more and more over the years."

Elder Xian Yu frowned and said, "The Xiao family is very calm, which is really abnormal."

A small gray mouse crawled into the ancestral hall. Elder Zuiri bent down and caught the mouse in his hand. A paper roll made of a rolled-up piece of paper came out of the mouse's mouth.

Elder Zuiri unfolded the paper, took a look at it, and then handed it to Jimo Yu who was sitting beside him: "Master, take a look."

Jimo Yu took the note handed over by Elder Zuiri, and a look of astonishment appeared on his pale face: "Has the Xiao family met with Lin Bufan?"

They actually met secretly.

Elder Zui Ri nodded and said, "How could the information that the spies I arranged in the Xiao family found out be false?"

As a family of weapon refining, the Xiao family has always been inferior to the Jimo family in Tianhui City. Over the years, the two have been living in peace because of their marriage relationship, but the Jimo family knew early on that the Xiao family was not so peaceful.

As the only son of the Xiao family, Xiao Jingyi strongly objected when he heard his father propose to cooperate with the demon clan to deal with the Jimo clan: "Father, how can the people of the demon clan have any credibility? Only by joining forces with the Jimo clan can we defend Tianhui City. If the Jimo clan is gone, then our Xiao family can only be bullied by others. Even if the Demon Clan does not go back on its word, we will easily be spurned by the sects and families of the entire Great Wilderness if we are so treacherous."

By then, the entire Xiao family will become the representative of betrayal in the entire Great Wilderness.

The Xiao family's patriarch and his staff saw Xiao Jingyi so excited at this time. The Xiao family's face darkened and said, "The one who made the deal with us is the new city lord of Wushuang City, Lin Bufan."

It is not the Wuwang Sect.

Is there any difference? Is there any difference? Lin Bufan colluding with the Demon Sect to besiege Tianhui City was a mistake.

Xiao Jingyi had met Lin Bufan in the inn with his father. Wasn't that the servant who had been with Jimo Zhiqiu before? It turned out to be Lin Bufan. As soon as Xiao Jingyi saw Lin Bufan, he hated him very much in his heart and said, "Wushuang City is colluding with the demons, so Lin Bufan's words cannot be trusted."

The head of the Xiao family said coldly, "Jingyi, don't worry about this matter. We have been subordinate to the Jimo family for so many years. All the good resources belong to the Jimo family. We can only pick up the ones that the Jimo family doesn't want. Even the quota for recruiting disciples issued by the Great Wilderness Sect every year is our turn because no one in the Jimo family wants them. He just relies on the power of his family's unique skills."

Xiao Jingyi argued: "Didn't Lin Bufan say before that he would not attack Tianhui City as long as Zhou Yun was handed over?" This is really not a good idea.

Patriarch Xiao frowned, thinking that his son was too straightforward, which was not a good thing. He said seriously, "Lin Bufan said that he would not besiege Tianhui City if Zhou Yun was handed over, but he did not say that he would let the Jimo family go."

Well, to each his own.

The Jimo family possesses the ancient beast-taming skills passed down from the Cangwu Sect thousands of years ago, and Lin Bufan had told him before that he wanted to see whether the Jimo family's skills were truly among the best in the Great Wilderness.

Patriarch Xiao has lived for so long that he naturally knows that what Lin Bufan meant by "take a look" is not just a look. Lin Bufan wants to take Jimo family's unique skills for himself.

If Lin Bufan had not received the help of the demons, he might have restrained himself a little and used his unparalleled charm to seduce Jimo Zhiqiu first, and then took advantage of Jimo Zhiqiu's infatuation with him to sneak into Jimo's family.

Now that Lin Bufan has the help of the demons, he doesn't want to go to great lengths to hook up with Jimo Zhiqiu. At this time, Lin Bufan has the little witch Wuwu by his side. If he wants the demons to do things for him, he has to charm the little witch and make her obey him.

Seeing Xiao Jingyi's stubborn unwillingness to join hands with Lin Bufan to deal with the Jimo family, the head of the Xiao family looked at him with disappointment and said, "In less than three days, the whole Great Wilderness will know about the demon clan's siege of Tianhui City. At that time, all the major sects will definitely send people to help. So this matter must be dealt with as soon as possible."

Xiao Jingyi said: "If our cooperation with the demons is known, wouldn't it be..."

Patriarch Xiao glared at him and said, "I told you, we are cooperating with Lin Bufan."

"But what Lin Bufan brought here are demons." Xiao Jing said anxiously.

"So it will be Lin Bufan who will collude with the demons. What does it have to do with my Xiao family? When the Jimo family is destroyed, who will believe the words of failure? When we take control of Tianhui City, the people of the Jimo family will have no choice but to submit to us. Who will believe the words of the losers? Since they are losers, how can I let them talk nonsense?"

"I am engaged to Zhiqiu, and you are doing this now." Xiao Jingyi frowned. He and Jimo Zhiqiu would fight whenever they met, and they disliked each other. But in Xiao Jingyi's heart, the more they fought, the more he loved Jimo Zhiqiu. In his heart, he had already determined that Jimo Zhiqiu was his wife.

"When we completely control Tianhui City, what kind of woman do you want to marry?" The head of the Xiao family didn't care about this at all.
