Against The Gods
Chapter 27 – Upheaval Round 6


Today could be said to be the busiest day of the Xiao Clan.


Early in the morning, the entrance of the Xiao Clan was already congested. All the influential families in Floating Cloud City could be seen here and furthermore they were represented by their heads. Although many were present, no one dared to be noisy. They all whispered to each other in the smallest possible voice out of fear that they would disturb an important guest among the Xiao Clan.


“I heard a long time ago that the founder of the Xiao Clan was from the Xiao Sect. It looks like it's true. “


“Klan Xiao will soar to new heights. We should maintain a good relationship with them from now on. “


“Luckily I never offended the Xiao Clan family, otherwise I could not eat or sleep quietly.”


“Old Mu, why are you also coming?”


“Oh, everyone is rushing to be first here, so I have to come. They're here for a relationship, but I'm here just in case. What if the brat from the Xiao Sect checked how many influential families were in Floating Cloud City and then saw that no one from the Mu family had come here? If they find some displeasure with it, then my entire family will have to bear the consequences. “


The entrance of the Xiao Clan remained closed, and everyone outside waited very carefully. None of them dared to leave.


They waited until nine in the morning.


Before dawn, a stage was set up on the empty land of the Xiao Clan, with chairs, tables, and all the equipment that was around it. At eight in the morning, the Xiao Clan made an urgent order for all its inhabitants to gather. Instantly, the residents of the Xiao Clan gathered as they immediately rushed to the meeting place. Less than a quarter of an hour, everyone in the Xiao Clan, young or old, was in a determined position with nothing lacking.


Today was the most important day for the Xiao Clan. They all knew very well what was going to happen today, and most saw excitement and anticipation. There were even some people with mediocre talent who still wished in their hearts to get a chance to be chosen by the people from the Xiao Sect.


Xiao Che was basically the last to arrive. When she walked hand in hand with Xia Qingyue at a speed that was not fast or slow, she instantly became the focus of everyone present, most likely no one wants to see it. What mattered was Xia Qingyue by his side!


She had a beautiful and graceful posture and a face that was alluring enough to conquer not only the city, but the world as well. The people there acted as if they saw an incomparable river fairy slowly walking towards them. This was especially true for the young men, who stood there with glass eyes and with their hearts beating. Even saliva involuntarily flowed down at the corner of their mouth ..


On the contrary, Xiao Che was by his side .. His face was pale, his eyelids drooped, his eyes looked soulless, and his footsteps were less powerful. He has not even walked a dozen steps and has already yawned three times with the appearance of someone who has excessive sexual intercourse and now craves to sleep.


Huh huh? Excessive sexual intercourse ….


When they thought about this and also saw the two join hands, some people clenched their teeth and they trembled. Their eyes radiated deep anxiety and fiery jealousy. After thinking of this heavenly beauty, a goddess they craved in their dreams was suppressed every day by the trash they hated the most, their stomachs almost split apart from anger and jealousy.


Xiao Che's half-asleep and extremely tired appearance was not acting, but it was definitely impossible due to excessive sexual intercourse. It was strange that he had energy when he woke up at three in the morning due to his usual acupuncture treatment, worked half dead, and then woke up this morning. As for their hands that went hand in hand, it was definitely not Xia Qingyue's wish. Instead, as they walked, Xiao Che suddenly held her under the tight supervision of the crowd. Since Xia Qingyue could not free herself, other than the fact that she had gotten used to her holding her hand these few days, she could only let it go.


“Everything inside the Xiao Clan is very good, except for the fact that we have unnecessary and unsightly garbage!”


As Xiao Che walked past a young man, a mocking voice that was loud enough that it sounded from beside him. Xiao Che raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Xiao Ze's third grandson, Xiao Chengzhi, carefully squinting forward. An unshakable smile hung from the corner of his mouth, and on his face looked envious.


He said those words to the person in front of him, but even an idiot knew that he was mocking Xiao Che. Instantly, a sound of laughter rose from the surroundings. Each and every young disciple looked at Xiao Che with a mocking expression in their eyes.


“Brother Chengzhi, are you talking to me now?” Xiao Che's footsteps stopped as he asked Xiao Chengzhi with a harmless smile on his face.


“Oh, Brother Xiao Che, you misunderstood. I'm actually talking to a piece of trash right now. For Brother Xiao Che to ask this, does that mean you consider yourself to be trash? “Xiao Chengzhi turned around and said with a smile. As her gaze looked at Xia Qingyue's beautiful face, a hard-to-disguise look flashed across her eyes.


“Oh! So so! “Xiao Che nodded with a sudden understanding. He then pulled Xia Qingyue's hand with him: “It seems like he's not talking about me. Qingyue my wife, let's hurry and get back to our position …. Tut tut, when I see a pitiful toad that dreams of eating goose meat, I prefer to be a sleeping scum holding a goose every night. Qingyue my wife, what do you think? “


“What ... what do you say !!” Xiao Chengzhi suddenly turned around, a dark expression on his face.


“Hah?” Xiao Che paused for a moment and looked at him in surprise, “Brother Chengzhi, what's wrong? I'm just talking about frogs so why do you have such a strange reaction? Don't tell me if Brother Chengzi has a special relationship with the frog I'm talking about? “


“You ! ! “The trembling lips of Xiao Chengzhi expressed her overwhelming anger, yet she was unable to think of anything else to say.


“Qingyue my wife, we better get going quickly. A frog will bite when agitated. If we were bitten by this thing, wouldn't we feel disgusted to death? “As Xiao Che spoke, he pulled Xia Qingyue to a distant place.


“Che Er, Qingyue, come here.”


Amidst the crowd, Xiao Che quickly saw Xiao Lie calling out to him with Xiao Lingxi by his side. She and Xia Qingyue quickly walked over.


After Xia Qingyue underwent Xiao Che's acupuncture treatment, not to mention her physique, even her face showed a huge change. Ignoring his physique, his skin became smoother, reddish and radiant. However, these skin changes had different meanings in Xiao Lie's eyes. Seeing Xiao Che clearly exuding a spiritless attitude, Xiao Lie lowered his voice and said with a small laugh, “Che Er, you are still too young. You're only half grown, and your body is still developing. Regarding this issue between men and women, you have to control yourself as much as possible or it can harm your body. “


“Ah?” Xiao Che looked at her. After recovering, he could only nod his head in embarrassment: “This. In the future, I will definitely control …. AH!”


He uttered a voice of pain. The small hand he was holding suddenly stabbed him mercilessly with his nails. Xia Qingyue turned her face away, but one could only see a pink color slowly spreading across her cheeks.


Uh uh ehhh? He really blushed …


Xiao Che was about to explain calmly as he once again grimaced in pain .. It was Xiao Lingxi's small hand that violently pinched her left arm.


“Little aunt, why did you pinch me?” Xiao Che said as he looked at Xiao Lingxi, a guilty expression on his face.


“Hmph!” Xiao Lingxi pouted and also faced the other direction, ignoring him in anger.


“Young Master Xiao has arrived! ! “


At this moment, a loud and clear shout sounded from in front of the crowd. The crowd immediately fell silent as everyone's eyes turned to the source of the voice, wanting to catch a glimpse of the majesty of the members of the Xiao Sect. Not long after, a luxurious-dressed young man with a proud attitude stepped through the crowd. Xiao Moshan was no more than half a step behind him, and Xiao Yunhai was at the front personally leading the way. His expression and posture were very different, without even the slightest hint of disrespect.


Under the guidance of Xiao Yunhai, Xiao Kuangyun climbed up the established stage and sat on the seat of honor in the middle. He swept his gaze over the members of the Xiao Clan below him with a haughty look, like an emperor overlooking his people. A moment later, he nodded to Xiao Yunhai to show that they could start.


“Is this a big man from the Xiao Sect? If we don't talk about anything else, his appearance is still a bit too unsightly. Wasn't that generation of the great Xiao Sect considered great ... Eh? He's not adopted, is he? “Xiao Che muttered softly.


“One hundred of them can't even compare to the little Che!” Xiao Lingxi muttered in reply. As soon as he said that, he remembered that he thought he was angry with her. He once again quickly let out an hmph sound, and turned his face to ignore it.


“Che’er, Xi’er, don't bullshit.” Xiao Lie said in a low voice.


“Oh,” Xiao Che replied, as he stopped talking.


“Is everyone from the Xiao Clan here?” Xiao Kuangyun slowly said with half-open eyes and a bored tone of voice. However, her two eyes quickly turned to search the crowd for the fairy figure she saw yesterday as well as the girl whom Xiao Yulong thought was on par with that elf.


“Already confirmed. Everyone was present, not even anything was missing. “Xiao Yunhai said seriously on his face.


“Very good!” Xiao Kuangyun nodded. His gaze then led to the main entrance: “Who are the people standing outside the door?”


“Report to Young Master Xiao, they are all other families in Floating Cloud City. They had already gathered here since the early hours of this day, in hopes of being able to see the majesty of Young Master Xiao. “Xiao Yunhai replied as he half got up from his chair.


“Ah, like that.” Xiao Kuangyun nodded and then said with a wave of his hand: “Since they are guests, we cannot let them wait outside like that. Let them in. The people outside the Xiao Clan witnessed the matter today is also a good thing, otherwise, others might say that I am biased. “


Xiao Yunhai immediately replied: “Young Master Xiao really deserves to be the son of the Xiao sect. Young as this but open-minded. Simply put me to shame .. Xiao De, quickly, invite our guests in. “


The main entrance was opened and all residents of Floating Cloud City orderly entered. They all brought gifts. Among the crowd, Xiao Che also saw Xia Qingyue's father, Xia Hongyi.


“Good once, now we can start.” Xiao Kuangyun stood upright in his chair and finally took a normal sitting position as he looked down and lightly spoke: “My name is Xiao Kuangyun and I am from the Xiao Sect. Regarding the big name of the Xiao Sect, all of you should be very clear. In Blue Wind Empire, there was nothing that the Xiao Sect could not solve. All of you should be honored and proud because even though you guys are a little weak, you can still be said to be related to the Xiao Sect. The founder of the Xiao Clan is the son of one of our Xiao Sect Elders. However, even though your Founder is the son of an Elder, he was actually born from a female servant. His status was so low that it was not worth mentioning, and his profound strength was really too lacking. As trash, he was no match to remain in the Xiao Sect. Your founder was thus banished by that Elder to this place, and that is how your Xiao Clan was formed. “


Xiao Kuangyun's extremely harsh words did not hide his disgust towards the Xiao Clan and its founder. Some members of the Xiao Clan pouted upon hearing this, but no one dared to make a fuss.
