On the other hand, internal strife had broken out within the Zhou Family. The father and son of the Zhou Family had been forced to die, and the last of the family's assets had been divided among the family members.
The once greatest family in the Forest City's Jewelry World had actually ended up like this!
However, this was only a very small matter to Wang Xiao. He didn't like to cause trouble, but if someone else wanted to cause trouble for him, he naturally wouldn't let it go just like that.
...
Jiangnan Province, Jiangnan City, Ancient Martial Family's Nan Family.
In a luxurious ward, many high ranking officials of Nan Family were sitting around. In the center of the ward, there was a young man who was lying on a hospital bed. His body was covered with bandages, as if he had suffered some serious injury.
When the elders of Nan Family saw this scene, their facial expression became very serious, and their brows were tightly knitted.
"You all saw it. The Direct Descendant of our Nan Family went to Forest City. He was severely injured, and his body was nearly half crippled. This matter... If we just let it go like this, I'm afraid that the entire Ancient Martial Family in the Jiangnan City... They will laugh at our Nan Family's incompetence!"
At this moment, an elder with a violent temper spoke in a cold voice.
"That's right. It seems like our Jiangnan Nan Family doesn't really show our face. Even the Ancient Martial Cultivator of some small cities... How dare you attack the Direct Descendant of our Jiangnan Nan Family? I think... We should let the Ancient Martial Cultivator of those small cities know how powerful our Jiangnan ancient martial arts Nan Family is! "
Another elder also spoke and echoed.
Many of the elders agreed with him. Their faces were filled with anger.
As members of the Jiangnan Nan Family, when had they ever suffered such a petty grievance?
"Don't be impulsive!" At this moment, an elder who seemed to have a higher seniority waved his hand and stopped them. That pair of skinny hands waved and said softly, "Our priority now is to find the Silver Lotus Pearl and treat Little Nan. Let's put the rest of the matters aside."
When those elders heard this, all of them became silent. Their gazes involuntarily turned towards the young girl who was sitting on the sofa beside them.
The young girl called Xiao Nan had a sickly pale face. She sat there with a weak and delicate body, like a delicate little tree that could be blown down by the wind at any time. However, her pair of pitch-black eyes were constantly flickering with radiance. It gave people a feeling of purity.
"Elders, I actually don't need the Silver Lotus Pearl."
Sensing everyone's gaze on him, Little Nan raised his head slightly and said timidly.
"Don't let anyone get hurt because of me."
It wasn't that she didn't need the Silver Lotus Pearl. She had a strange illness, and only the Silver Lotus Pearl could save her.
However, the kind-hearted Little Nan didn't want the Elders to harm others because of him.
"Xiao Nan, you don't have to worry about this matter. We watched you grow up, so how could we let something happen to you!?"
The hot-tempered elder smiled at Xiao Nan, but his tone was very firm.
In the end, he turned around and said to the elders, "Only the Silver Lotus Pearl can save Little Nan's life. However, the Silver Lotus Pearl wasn't brought to the Forest City by that girl called Qing Luan from Cyan Medicine Valley. After that, we lost track of the Silver Lotus Pearl, and the Direct Descendant we sent was seriously injured. Inconscious? What should we do now? "
When the elders heard this, they furrowed their brows and sighed softly.
All these days, they had been guarding that Direct Descendant. They wanted to wait for him to wake up and find out the whereabouts of the Silver Lotus Pearl as soon as possible.
However, even after such a long period of time, the Direct Descendant still showed no signs of waking up. This made them feel very helpless.
"For the sake of today's plan, we can only continue to wait."
"Only when this child wakes up will we know the whereabouts of the Silver Lotus Pearl."
Cough cough...
At this moment, a cough suddenly sounded beside the hospital bed.
It was that Direct Descendant who woke up!
When the elders saw this, their faces revealed a hint of joy. They hurriedly moved closer.
"Greetings, greetings elders!"
The Direct Descendant had just woken up from its deep slumber, and in the blink of an eye, it saw so many elders surrounding it. It was both surprised and delighted, and its voice was trembling as it spoke.
"Child, how do you feel?"
"Do you feel any discomfort?"
"Do you need a doctor to examine you again?"
Although these elders were anxious about the whereabouts of the Silver Lotus Pearl, they still did a lot of things to buy over people's hearts. They asked around to warm up.
When the Direct Descendant heard the concern of so many elders, his heart was filled with gratitude. Now, even if these elders wanted him to die, he would not hesitate to die.
"Replying to the elders, I feel very good!"
The Direct Descendant looked at the elders with tearful eyes and said excitedly.
If it wasn't for the bandages on his body, he would have jumped up and bowed to the elders.
"Kid, why did you get seriously injured when you went to Forest City? Where did the Silver Lotus Pearl go?"
At this time, the short-tempered elder couldn't help but ask the Direct Descendant.
"Replying to elder, I followed that Qing Luan girl from the Cyan Medicine Valley to the Forest City. When I saw her participate in a large-scale herb trade fair in the Forest City, I was afraid that she would sell the Silver Lotus Pearl. He kept an eye on her all the way until he found out that she had only sold the Silver Lotus Seed. That's a relief."
"After she settled the trade fair, I appeared in a remote place. I will ask her to hand over the Silver Lotus Pearl, but she is unwilling. For the sake of Miss Little Nan's safety... I have decided to snatch it by force. Just as I am about to snatch it by force... A young Ancient Martial Cultivator called Wang Xiao attacked and injured me. If it wasn't for my quick escape, I'm afraid that I would have died there. That girl also used the Silver Lotus Pearl as a token of thanks and gifted it to that young Ancient Martial Cultivators."
A lingering fear surfaced on the Direct Descendant's face when he spoke until the end.
"Wang Xiao?" The elders quickly caught the important information in the Direct Descendant's words. The Ancient Martial Cultivator that saved the Blue Luan and crippled the Direct Descendant was called Wang Xiao.
"Who is this Wang Xiao? Have you all heard of such an Ancient Martial Superior in the younger generation?"
An elder couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Never heard of it. We do know a little about the young Ancient Martial Superior in Jiangnan City, but Forest City is just a small city."
The other elders shook their heads and said in unison.
"Wang Xiao? Could it be the overlord of Forest City, Wang Xiao?"
At this moment, a fat elder suddenly exclaimed.
Upon seeing this, all the elders turned around and looked at the fat elder, "Fifth brother, you know about this young Ancient Martial Cultivator?"
Among these elders, the fat elder was in charge of the family's businesses and businesses. He had traveled all over the world and knew many things.
The fat elder's face sank slightly as he said solemnly, "If it really is that young man, then it will be difficult to get our Silver Lotus Pearl back!"
