The Prince Of The Seventh Hell
Chapter 54. The Xiao Family (part 3)

" ... Huh uh? whatchu mean? why should I get engaged to your daughter anyway" asked Key with a slightly surprised look.

"Don't I tell you from the beginning, I want to give you a gift. The gift was my daughter, .. so how? did you accept it?" said the patriarch of the Xiao family with a strange smile.

It seems like this old man wants to test me, he wants to see what kind of character I have. I should get the map as soon as possible, and if they refuse to give it away properly then I will use a rough way to snatch it.

"Stop this shit, old man. Just give me the map and I'll get out of here. Why would you want to spend your precious time on someone like me." Say Key with a different look.

"So you realize it yes, fine - well I'll give you the map. Hm ... but actually whose cultivation was in which realm? I became a little curious, even this myself that a patriarch could not feel. What exactly are you conspiring with those thieves?" patriarch Xiao's family was suspicious of Key.

"Hey old man. Aren't you being too long-winded. It's not better, if you .. say that I want to see your power. But, I'll ignore that because you're old." Say Key.

In an instant a shadow came out from the darkness that was none other than the people who had been listening to their conversation. With all-black clothes and eyes filled with anger. Someone who might be a man.

Being behind Key by carrying a sword that has been stretched beside the right neck of the key.

"Hm? .. I guess .. they wouldn't move without orders from the patriarch. But, it seemed like it was just a lie made by the empress ha ha ha. Or they no longer consider you (Patriak ) as their leader, old man." said Key, pointing at the patriarch of the Xiao family.

" .... "

"Stop talking or I'll separate your head from your body boy!" said the man holding the sword in a threatening tone.

"Hoo .. I can't wait to feel it. Feel the sword of one who has betrayed their leader."

"What do you mean?"

"Do you know nothing, you want to chop off my head. Without orders from your family patriarch. Doesn't that tarnish his reputation?" key smiled.

The man suddenly looked at the patriarch, although the patriarch looked ordinary but the man began to sweat, he was afraid of being executed.

(kneel down) "I'm sorry patriarch! I'm really a fool for daring to do something without your orders." He said while looking down at the floor.

"Yes you are a fool, you were fooled by the words of the boy." Patriarch.

"What?" the man was confused.

"Gd ... Aha ha ha! really an idiot, he just believed my words. Looks like you need to retrain them, old man, or your family's future will be over in 50 years." Key laughed.

"How dare you!" He stood up and picked up the sword he had thrown on the floor.

"Shut up!! don't you dare to attack him without my orders. I was still ignoring you but, if you're still moving without my orders, then I'll kill you right here right now." Stomach the patriarch with anger in his eyes.

"Sorry patriarch." (kneel down quickly to the extent that the floor on which he was kneeling was stained by from his knees.

"I'm sorry for showing you something embarrassing. About the map, Yue went to the warehouse and took the most perfect map. And also Ning'er come with your mother" said the patriarch. Looking towards his wife Xiao Yue and also Xiao Ning'er.

"You too, get out of this room."

"Okay, patriarch."

Now the whole room is quieter than before. In that room only Key and Patriarch of the Xiao family remained.

"So, what's your goal, old man." asked key with a cold face.

"Speaking with smart people is easier. But, first I will introduce myself so that you do not call me with the old man anymore.

Introduce I am the patriarch of the Xiao family from the northern continent my name is Xiao Fang long. You can call me long or fang and stop calling me old man because I'm only 68." Fang said proudly.

Uhm .. instead of 68 years old already including old well? is it still young in this world? yeah I guess that makes sense anyway, because of the many Chinese comics I read about the world of cultivators. Most have a long life and some are even eternal. Hmm. .. I guess that's all I have on cultivators.

"Alright, I hope you start calling me by my name from now on. And for the reason that we're both living in this place, because of the gift I promised you." Said Fang casually.

"Hm? I guess it was just a lie to see my character. Am I wrong?"

"No, I did offer that to see what your character looks like and after I see it throughout our conversation. You are someone I find difficult to guess.

And also, I really seriously want to get you engaged to my daughter. At first I was surprised why he got here sooner than I thought. But, after I saw the clothes he was wearing were already tattered.

I'm appalled. I thought of many things that could drive me crazy after seeing my daughter's condition. But, after she told me that someone was helping her my feelings became very happy and wanted to repay your kindness with whatever I had.

No, that's all she (Ning'er ) really likes you, every time she talks about you her face is always flushed, she's sometimes ashamed of herself when it's your first meeting. So I want you to rethink this and give me an answer."

"Honestly, Fang, I don't want to be in contact with anyone because in the future I will have a lot of enemies to face. And don't you know for yourself what's going to happen to your daughter, right." Put his hand on Fang's shoulder.

"Yes, he'll be an easy target to finish you off." Disillusioned.

"Yes, that's what Fang is."

"Then please accept this as a sign of my gratitude." (deliver )

"this ..." rather surprised.

5 Minutes later

(door opens) "Dad, I'm back. Hm? what the hell is going on here?" Ning'er confused.
