“Oh, by the way, what’s the strength of this hidden Hong family…”
Since this hidden Hong family was traveling together with the Hu family, Xiao Yufan naturally wanted to know their level of power. Otherwise, if they decided to interfere halfway, things would become even more complicated.
“The Hong family also has an old man at the Post-Heaven Stage, you know… Actually, he’s a bit stronger than my Fourth Grandpa!”
When mentioning the hidden Hong family, Hu Yingluo’s eyes flickered evasively, which naturally caught Xiao Yufan’s attention. This girl was probably the worst at concealing her thoughts.
“Another one? A Post-Heaven expert? Since when did such powerful experts become so common?”
Xiao Yufan twitched his lips slightly. The Post-Heaven Stage was already considered a true expert level. Yet, it seemed like these so-called experts were now running rampant everywhere. Before even attending the Ancient Martial Arts Conference, he had already encountered two Post-Heaven experts.
What annoyed him most was that he still didn’t know whether these people were friend or foe. If both Post-Heaven experts turned against him because of Yingluo, the situation would become very difficult.
“Don’t be silly! This Ancient Martial Arts Conference is very important to both our families. Do you really think Post-Heaven experts are everywhere?”
Hu Yingluo gave him a coquettish glare, her lips curling into a beautiful smile. Yet, beneath that smile, there was a hint of coldness. She knew that if this man insisted on keeping her, the hidden Hong family would definitely intervene.
“I think, Yingluo, you’re hiding something from me, aren’t you? Don’t you know that when you’re thinking something, your eyebrows always furrow slightly?”
Apart from An, the管家, and her Fourth Grandpa, Xiao Yufan had never met anyone from the hidden Hong family before. Whether they were friend or foe would soon become clear. However, Xiao Yufan always felt that this girl was keeping something from him.
“The person from the hidden Hong family this time is a very annoying guy. When he heard I was returning to the country, he stubbornly followed me here. He might cause you trouble.”
Gently biting her tempting red lips, Hu Yingluo looked at Xiao Yufan, whose expression hadn’t changed much, and softly explained. Although she disliked that man from the hidden Hong family, she couldn’t exactly stop him from coming.
Uh!
Xiao Yufan’s lips curved slightly into a bitter smile. It seemed he had gained yet another rival in love for no apparent reason. But perhaps this wasn’t a bad thing—it at least proved how excellent his woman was.
“There’s absolutely nothing between me and him. He’s just an annoying guy who sticks around like a fly you can’t shake off, insisting on following us…”
Seeing Xiao Yufan’s expression shift slightly, Hu Yingluo quickly became anxious and hurriedly added. She didn’t want this man misunderstanding her. Thinking about it, she hated that annoying guy from the hidden Hong family even more.
“Don’t worry, my husband isn’t that narrow-minded. Since he’s a love rival who came all this way, I won’t bother with him if he leaves me alone. But if he dares to stir up trouble on my territory, I’ll ensure he suffers a crushing defeat!”
It was only natural for someone as outstanding as his woman to have admirers. However, if that guy from the hidden Hong family had ulterior motives, he would definitely take action.
With the Dragon-Taming True Manual, even at the early stage of Qi Accumulation, he could easily rival someone at the peak of the same stage. As long as that person from the hidden Hong family wasn’t nearly at the Post-Heaven Stage, Xiao Yufan was confident he could send him packing in utter disgrace!
Within his domain, he was the underground emperor!
