Xiao Zhan and the others were delighted to hear Xiao Miao's answer, as it was clearly what they had been hoping for.

Although the choice was given to him, no matter what, being tied to Medusa's coattails meant the Xiao family gained an extra Dou Zong fighter, which would greatly benefit the Xiao family's future development.

"Xiao Miao, what are you saying?"

At this moment, Yun Yun clearly could not accept his answer and asked him in a trembling voice, "I cannot accept this result, and it is absolutely impossible for me to accept it."

"Xiao Miao."

At this moment, although Xiao Xun'er did not lose her color like Yun Yun, her eyes were empty and she murmured softly.

"I will have them send the gifts over as soon as possible. I apologize for troubling the Xiao family to wait a few more days."

Medusa smiled faintly as she addressed Xiao Zhan and the others, saying that her trip had been a resounding success.

In fact, for Xiao Miao, this choice was already the best. Although he only had feelings for Medusa, he only regarded Yun Yun as his master and Xiao Xun'er as the older sister who had taken care of him since childhood.

He believed from the bottom of his heart that this was the best option at present, and it could also bring the relationship between the three of them back to the way it was before.

Unfortunately, this step was just wishful thinking on his part, and it only exacerbated the resentment in the two women's hearts.

At this moment, Xiao Xun'er looked at Medusa, who was smiling slightly to the side, and lowered her head slightly. Her originally cold expression became even more gloomy, but then she seemed to have figured something out, and her expression became calm again. She spoke to Medusa and Xiao Miao:

"Xiao Miao, since you've chosen to get engaged to her, then I wish you happiness. I'll be going now."

Xiao Xun'er said these words calmly, and then walked out of the Xiao family's hall under the surprised gazes of everyone.

This puzzled everyone. The girl's behavior just now didn't seem like anything was wrong, but now she suddenly became calm, which was really hard to guess.

However, the reality was not as she had just said. As Xiao Xun'er walked away with her back to them, the golden flames in her eyes flickered wildly, as if the resentment burning in her heart was hard to quell and could not be quelled. Her silver teeth were clenched tightly, and even her cheeks bulged slightly.

There's nothing she can do right now. Without the ancient clans sending people over, Ling Ying alone is simply not enough to turn the tide.

Today, she has fully experienced the pain of being weak. Since there is no other way now, she can only pretend to give in. When her strength surpasses hers in the future, Xiao Miao will be under her control.

'And those stubborn old fogies in the clan can't be allowed to live either. If they hadn't refused to send anyone, we wouldn't be in this mess today.'

'And Xiao Miao, since you've chosen her, don't blame me later.'

Xiao Miao watched Xiao Xun'er's lonely and slowly departing figure, his lips parted but he kept them closed. Better a short pain than a long one.

Yun Yun also didn't understand Xiao Xun'er's actions. In her opinion, Xiao Xun'er was just a loser who gave up easily, and she herself would not admit defeat so easily.

But one cannot defy one's parents' wishes. Since it was Xiao Miao's own choice and it was arranged by her parents, she could not refute it.

Xiao Miao felt Yun Yun's cold gaze and knew that she resented him, but there was really nothing he could do.

As the conversation ended, Yun Yun had no choice but to leave with Yun Shan. She was mainly dragged away by Yun Shan, otherwise she didn't know how long she would have stayed there.

Seeing this drama unfold, Nalan Jie, sitting next to Yunshan, couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle. It seems that being too outstanding also has its troubles.

Then he stood up and said to Xiao Zhan:

"Clan Chief Xiao, please wait a moment."

This is a group chat. Feel free to join if you're interested. We can discuss future plot branches here, such as how many female leads to recruit or which ones to recruit.

Chapter 64 Brothers talk

Xiao Zhan was startled when he saw Nalan Jie call out to him, and he replied in response:

"What business does Chief Nalan have?"

"What 'Clan Chief Nalan'? When that old bastard Xiao Lin was around, he always called him 'Brother Nalan'."

Seeing Nalan Jie's unrestrained manner, Xiao Zhan couldn't help but smile.

"I'm here for no other reason than to discuss the marriage between our two families."

Upon hearing Nalan Jie's purpose, Xiao Zhan raised an eyebrow. Another marriage? With whom? Xiao Miao?

Seeing Xiao Zhan's expression, Nalan Jie quickly spoke up:

"You haven't forgotten, have you? Clan Chief Xiao, this is my Yanran and your son Xiao Yan. Back then, that brat Xiao Lin saved my life, and these two children were born on the same day. That's why Xiao Lin and I arranged their marriage. What, now that the Xiao family is powerful, judging from Marquis Xiao Miao's appearance, do you want to go back on your word? If that's really the case, you can just say so directly, and my Nalan family will not make a fuss."

Upon hearing Nalan Jie's words, Xiao Zhan couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. It wasn't that he had forgotten, but rather that after today's events, the mention of marriage made him think of Xiao Miao.

Hearing Nalan Jie's slightly angry words, he quickly tried to appease him:

"How could that be? It's a joyous occasion that my Xiao Yan can be with your granddaughter."

Seeing that Xiao Zhan had no intention of backing out, Nalan Jie finally revealed a sly smile.

"How about this, I'll have Yanran come to the Xiao family in a while so she can get to know your son better, okay?"

"Of course, we'll have to trouble Yanran to take care of Xiao Yan in the future. He's been a wild boy since he was little, so it would be great if someone could keep him in check."

"Haha, your father and I are sworn brothers, so there's no need for us to be so formal. Just call me Uncle from now on."

Nalan Jie patted Xiao Zhan on the shoulder and said cheerfully.

The Xiao family is rising in status every day. With Xiao Miao, a young powerhouse with unlimited potential, and now with Medusa, a Dou Zong, their rise is unstoppable. It's a good opportunity to climb up to the Xiao family.

As for Xiao Miao, Nalan Jie never even dared to think about it. With his extraordinary experience, he could tell that although Yun Yun outwardly opposed his master's identity this afternoon, the emotions revealed in her eyes could not escape the notice of this experienced old man. After all, who hasn't been young before?

Xiao Yan, who was just watching the show below, was stunned when he suddenly saw the old man in front of him dragging him into the matter.

Hearing their conversation, he was completely stunned. He realized he actually had a fiancée, the eldest daughter of the Nalan family, whom his father had never mentioned before.

Seeing Xiao Zhan beckon him over, Xiao Yan had no choice but to slowly walk over, his face embarrassed, and join the conversation between the two men in a casual manner.

Xiao Miao stopped watching the three of them engage in their awkward, half-hearted conversation and turned to look at Medusa beside her.

His gaze was calm and indifferent before, but now it seems to be a bit doting.

"Let's go."

Medusa nodded when she heard Xiao Miao say that. Since it was already a done deal, there was no need to rush things.

"it is good."

Then she turned and left. Watching Medusa turn and walk away, Xiao Miao couldn't help but curse inwardly:

"What a scumbag woman, she doesn't cherish what she has."

He then headed towards his residence to return and cultivate.

"Dong dong."

Xiao Miao, who was meditating, suddenly heard a knock on the door. He couldn't help but wonder who would come so late.

Xiao Miao stopped cultivating, stood up and walked towards the door, but hesitated for a moment before opening it.

"Could it be Medusa? She was acting so proper before."

Xiao Miao thought to himself, but the more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed. Coming over so late, could it be that he had ulterior motives?

Some unhealthy images flashed through Xiao Miao's mind, and her face couldn't help but turn red. For some reason, she felt a little expectant, perhaps because the restrictions of the cultivation technique were gone. She didn't feel the same aversion as before.

But then he shook his head, thinking that he couldn't afford to be so decadent lately.

"But what if she forces me to?"

Just as Xiao Miao was lost in thought, there was another knock on the door.

"Dong dong."

Nevertheless, it did not end there; instead, a sound came from within.

"Ah Miao, are you asleep?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Miao immediately realized that it was his third brother's voice.

"Ugh."

After thinking for a long time, Xiao Miao realized that she was the one who was in heat. She patted her face and then opened the door.

"Sigh, I knew you were still cultivating. Sigh, why is your face red?"

Seeing the door open, Xiao Yan glanced inside and noticed a chill emanating from the room. He couldn't help but speak, but then he was surprised to see her face turn red.

"Cough cough, it's probably too hot."

Xiao Yan didn't expose Xiao Miao's fabricated reason. The room was already freezing cold; it was too hot. He wasn't blind yet.

"Sigh, if you don't want to talk about it, that's fine. Your third brother wants to have a heart-to-heart talk with you."

Upon hearing Xiao Yan's words, Xiao Miao glanced through the door. It was pitch black outside. Why were they having a heart-to-heart talk so late?

Before Xiao Miao could even agree, Xiao Yan walked in on his own, lay down on Xiao Miao's bed, and started rolling around incessantly.

Seeing that she had already entered, Xiao Miao had no choice but to close the door. But then he saw her rolling around on his bed and frowned. The bedding he had just made was now all crumpled up again.

"Ugh."

Xiao Miao sighed inwardly, walked over and sat on the bed, immediately reaching out to stop Xiao Yan from continuing to roll around like a child.

"Alright, Third Brother, stop fooling around."

Hearing Xiao Miao's slightly serious tone, Xiao Yan looked at the messy bedding around him, scratched his head, and finally calmed down.

Xiao Miao sat down next to Xiao Yan. He must have come to see him so late to complain about his former fiancée. It seems that Third Brother still doesn't like arranged marriages.

"Ah Miao, I really envy you, having a snake-woman wife who is both beautiful and powerful."
