"Hmph …"
But Xu Zixiong's seemingly vague answer was equivalent to giving an accurate answer. Suddenly, Lu Tianfen's face changed completely. His face became gloomy, and his eyes were burning with anger.
He was a very proud person. His talent, strength, background, and so on were all top-notch. In the whole of Southeast Asia, there were very few people who could compare with him … Although this did not make Lu Tianfeng arrogant to the point of looking down on others, there were very few people who could make him look up to.
So far, there was only one … Xu Jiao from the Xu family.
Thus, Lu Tianfeng decided to marry Xu Jiao … This way, he would still be that peerlessly talented Young Master Tianfeng, and no matter how powerful Xu Jiao was, she would only be labeled as "Madam Lu Tianfeng."
In order to achieve this goal, Lu Tianfeng had put in a lot of effort, and the Lu family had also made many concessions …
But the Xu family still refused to budge. This made the Lu family angry, but also helpless. After all, it was impossible for the Xu family to budge on such a big matter that involved the family's foundation …
If the Xu Family had made up their mind to let Xu Jiao stay in the Xu Family for the rest of her life, then so be it. Although Lu Tianfeng was dissatisfied, there was nothing he could say … But now, the Xu Family actually had the intention to marry Xu Jiao off, but the candidate wasn't him, Young Master Tianfeng. This made Lu Tianfeng very dissatisfied.
This was equivalent to slapping Lu Tianfeng's face dozens of times. His whole face was swollen, but he was still kept in the dark … How could Lu Tianfeng accept this?
"Who is that person?"
Lu Tianfeng shouted with a face full of anger.
But this time, he did not ask Second Young Master Xu Zixiong, but looked at Brother Niu and the others.
Second Young Master Xu could not reveal too much. Even if he had said something that he should not have, Xu Zixiong would not be able to bear the punishment from the family if he revealed more. But Brother Niu and the others did not have such trouble, and they seemed to know a lot. Of course, Lu Tianfeng would ask them.
"It is said that the man is called Qin Fang, and he is from the mainland of Long Province …"
Seeing that Lu Tianfen was asking him, Brother Niu hurriedly replied, but he didn't know much about the situation, only bits and pieces.
"Long Province mainland?"
However, when Lu Tianfen heard this, his expression became complicated. He frowned deeply and fell into deep thought.
If Qin Fang was only a local in Southeast Asia, Lu Tianfen wouldn't be afraid of him. There was no one in Southeast Asia that the Lu family didn't dare to deal with. However, things were different when it came to the mainland of Long Province.
The Lu family was also Chinese, and their ancestors also came from the mainland of Long Province. Even the ancestors of the Lu family were the elders of the Tianshan Sect, which was one of the oldest sects in Long Province. This was the foundation of the Lu family, and also the capital of the Lu family.
But it was precisely because of this that the Lu family could do whatever they wanted in Southeast Asia, but they were quite afraid of the mainland of Long Province … There were too many sects that the Lu family could not afford to offend. Even the Tianshan Sect behind the Lu family didn't dare to offend them.
It was precisely because of this that Lu Tianfen's face became so ugly, and then he looked at Xu Zixiong …
Obviously, he was still not sure. Long Province was too big, and there were quite a lot of sects in it. Naturally, there were strong and weak sects. The Tianshan Sect belonged to the top level, and most of the sects were not afraid of them.
But there were very few sects that the Tianshan Sect could not afford to offend … Lu Tianfen was most worried that Qin Fang came from one of these sects.
"Don't look at me, I don't know his specific origin … But, it should not be simple!
Otherwise … "
Xu Zixiong shook his head and said vaguely as before. Lu Tianfen didn't know if he really didn't know, or if he was deliberately hiding something.
"But, when it comes to personal marriage, I think it's better for both parties to be in love. If it involves too many complicated things, it's really not very suitable …"
However, Xu Zixiong also expressed his gratitude with a smile.
"Hm?"
Lu Tianfen's expression suddenly changed, and a light flashed in his eyes. Then, he smiled and said, "Second Young Master is right. Since it's chasing a girl, of course it depends on the individual's methods. It's better not to get involved in other things …"
Lu Tianfen was not a fool, and Xu Zixiong's words hit the nail on the head.
Once the Xu family let go of Xu Jiao's marriage, then theoretically, anyone would have a chance to compete …
Since it was a competition, then of course it would depend on the individual's methods. The final victory would be determined by who could win the girl … If it involved too much power, resources, and background, then this would change.
Xu Zixiong was equivalent to giving Lu Tianfen an excuse … At least Lu Tianfen wouldn't be in the most disadvantageous position from the start.
However, Xu Zixiong kept some words in his stomach and didn't say them out loud … At least, Qin Fang had given Lu Tianfen an extremely precious pill as a gift, and from the start, he had already stepped on Lu Tianfen.
Once he thought of that precious pill, even Xu Zixiong couldn't help but feel a fire in his heart … Some of the powerful elders in the family had already appraised it. It was a pill that could help a cultivator break through to the next level, and could even raise a cultivator from the peak of the master level to the grandmaster level.
Such a pill was given to Xu Jiao by Qin Fang, and Xu Jiao happened to be suitable for it … If she took it, it was very likely that she would break through the current barrier and step into the grandmaster level in one go. Then, even his father, Xu Shaofeng, would not be a match for Xu Jiao, and their bloodline would probably never be able to raise their heads again.
Similarly, Xu Zixiong's cultivation was also at the peak of the master level, and his accumulated strength was even stronger than Xu Jiao's. With the help of this pill, he could also step into the grandmaster level … With two grandmasters in one bloodline, their bloodline's right to speak would become considerably greater.
Moreover, he, Xu Zixiong, was still young, only in his thirties. Such a young grandmaster level expert might have a chance to step into the legendary grandmaster level in the future … This made Xu Zixiong even more covetously eyeing that pill.
However, the problem just so happened to lie here …
Xu Jiao's status in the Xu Family was much higher than Xu Zixiong's, and the pill was given to Xu Jiao by Qin Fang. He, Xu Zixiong, had no way of obtaining it legitimately … Then, he could only marry Xu Jiao off.
As long as Xu Jiao was married off, the Xu Family would not let such a pill wander out with Xu Jiao. They would choose a young disciple in the family to take it, and he, Xu Zixiong, was undoubtedly the best candidate.
As for whether Qin Fang would fly into a rage out of humiliation and want the pill back … this was not something that Xu Zixiong would care about.
Since the pill was already in their hands, the Xu Family would not return it no matter what … At most, they would compensate Qin Fang in other aspects when the time came.
Naturally, only Xu Zixiong himself knew these thoughts in his heart. Lu Tianfeng could not imagine the inside story … He had sunk into silence for a long time, carefully considering the pros and cons of this matter.
"Since he's already here, it would be a pity if I don't meet him … Second Young Master, won't you introduce him?"
Thinking of this, although Lu Tianfeng's expression was still cold, it was much better than before, and he even smiled at Xu Zixiong.
"It's too late now, the Old Master's birthday banquet is about to begin … You'll naturally meet him in a while!"
However, Xu Zixiong looked at the time and shook his head.
Based on the current situation, there was nothing more important than Old Master Xu's birthday banquet. No matter how much conflict they had, it would have to wait until after the banquet … If something went wrong during the banquet, the Old Master would be furious, and things would become even worse.
"That's right, then let's go together to give our blessings to the Old Master!"
Lu Tianfeng was very proud, but he was not an idiot. He knew the importance of this matter, and he also nodded and said.
It was unknown whether it was fate or it was a small world, but when Lu Tianfeng and his group went to give their blessings to Old Master Xu, they happened to bump into Qin Fang and Xu Zizhen, who were also there to give their blessings, and the two groups of people met just like that.
"Young Master Lu, he's the one with the surname Qin …"
Brother Niu's eyes were sharp, and he immediately discovered Qin Fang's presence, and he hurriedly expressed his opinion.
Although Xu Zixiong had heard of Qin Fang, he had never seen him before. He only knew that Qin Fang was very young, ridiculously young … But when he really saw him, he was deeply shocked.
He originally thought that Qin Fang and Lu Tianfeng were about the same age, at most a little younger, but in fact, Qin Fang was in his early twenties, at least ten years younger than Lu Tianfeng.
"He's so young, but he's already at the Master Stage … How terrifying!"
Although he had never fought with Qin Fang before, Qin Fang had made his Master Stage father lose face, so Qin Fang's strength was definitely very terrifying. Coupled with Qin Fang's young face, it brought a considerable amount of pressure to people.
Especially the background and strength behind this young face … It made Xu Zixiong wonder if he had made the right choice. After all, the power behind Qin Fang was probably much stronger than the Lu Family.
Not only Xu Zixiong, but even Lu Tianfeng couldn't help but be speechless when he saw Qin Fang.
Although he didn't get along with Xu Zizhen, they still knew each other. If he could marry Xu Jiao, then Xu Zizhen would be his brother-in-law … It was impossible for him not to know him.
Naturally, he only needed a glance to know that the young man beside Xu Zizhen was the person he wanted to deal with, Qin Fang …
"Too young …"
This was the biggest shock in Lu Tianfeng's heart at this moment …
