Chapter 82 Return to Wutan City, the Xiao Family Shaken! [Please Read On]

After a deep exchange with Queen Medusa, Xiao Lei stayed in the Xuanjie Pearl for a few more days before leaving with Qing Lin, intending to return to Wutan City.

As for Queen Medusa, she remains in the Xuan Realm for the time being, preparing to venture out into the Dou Qi Continent once the Snake People have been completely settled.

Before setting off, Xiao Lei once again sought out Ice Emperor Hai Bodong.

With Qinglin in his arms, Xiao Lei flapped his purple battle aura wings and flew towards the eastern part of the Jia Ma Empire.

Hai Bodong followed closely behind.

Ten days later, the three of them arrived in Wutan City.

In present-day Wutan City, of the original three major families, only the Xiao family remains. There are no more open or covert struggles, and the city is now peaceful.

"Young Master, is this where you grew up?" Walking with Xiao Lei on the streets of Wutan City, Qing Lin blinked her big eyes and looked around, asking softly.

Qing Lin was quite interested in the place where Xiao Lei grew up.

Xiao Lei smiled and said, "That's right, this is where I grew up."

Hai Bodong exclaimed in amazement, "I never imagined that such a small city could produce a genius like you, young master. The so-called geniuses of the three great families of the Gama Empire are utterly insignificant in your presence."

Although Hai Bodong was controlled by Xiao Lei's soul-capturing technique, apart from a change in his attitude towards Xiao Lei, his other thoughts remained unaffected.

"Let's go, let's go straight back to the Xiao family," Xiao Lei said with a light laugh.

Qinglin and Haibodong naturally had no objections to this.

Before long, the three of them arrived at the Xiao family's residence.

When they arrived at the Xiao family's residence, they found that a large number of people had already gathered at the entrance.

Xiao Zhan, the patriarch of the Xiao family, along with the three elders and other high-ranking members of the Xiao family, were all present.

"Does the Xiao family have some guests coming?" Qing Lin blinked, somewhat curious, upon seeing this.

Xiao Lei shook his head slightly and said, "I don't know either."

"Young Master Xiao Lei is back!"

Suddenly, a joyful voice rang out from the gate of the Xiao family.

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Zhan and the three elders all walked quickly toward Xiao Lei and the other two.

"Xiao Lei, you're back!" Xiao Zhan walked quickly to Xiao Lei's side and said excitedly.

The three elders also greeted Xiao Lei.

Xiao Lei smiled and replied, then asked, "Clan leader, three elders, what kind of guests are you preparing to welcome?"

The Third Elder laughed and said, "What kind of guest are we welcoming? Of course, we're welcoming the return of the Xiao family's number one genius!"

Xiao Zhan smiled and said, "The servants in the clan reported that they saw you on the street. After hearing the news, everyone was eager to come out and see you."

Xiao Lei shrugged and said, "This is too much."

"Let's go, we'll talk about it when we get back," Xiao Zhan said, waving his hand at the crowd.

Xiao Lei nodded slightly, showing no objection.

At this moment, the Grand Elder asked Xiao Lei, "Xiao Lei, how much has your cultivation improved during this time? What realm are you in now?"

Upon hearing the elder's words, everyone else turned to look at Xiao Lei, awaiting his reply.

"Nine-Star Douling," Xiao Lei said after a moment's thought.

It's always better to play it safe, no matter what.

"Nine stars..." Everyone was shocked upon hearing this.

Suddenly, Xiao Zhan seemed to remember something and exclaimed in shock, "You just said nine-star Dou Ling, not nine-star Da Dou Shi?"

"That's right, it's a nine-star Dou Ling, not a nine-star Da Dou Shi," Xiao Lei confirmed with a slight smile.

"What?! Nine-Star Douling?!"

The three elders, along with the Xiao family members around them, were all wide-eyed with shock.

They only noticed the word "nine stars" and assumed Xiao Lei had broken through to the ninth star of the Great Dou Master realm.

When Xiao Lei left Wutan City, he displayed a cultivation level of one-star Great Dou Master. In just a few months, he has broken through to the ninth star of Great Dou Master, which is enough to shock them.

They never expected that Xiao Lei would soar directly to the ninth level of Dou Ling!

If they knew that Xiao Lei's true cultivation level was at the peak of Dou Wang, I wonder how shocked they would be!

"The Grand Elder and the Clan Chief were originally betting on how many stars you would advance in the Great Dou Shi realm this time, but unexpectedly, you quietly soared to the ninth star of Dou Ling!"

After a long while, the Third Elder's eyes widened, and he said with a shocked expression.

The Second Elder laughed and said, "It seems that the First Elder and the Clan Chief's judgments were too conservative."

"So you two were in such a hurry to come out and see me because of the bet?" Xiao Lei said with a smile after hearing their conversation.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

"Second Elder is right, First Elder and I were too conservative," Xiao Zhan murmured, then looked at Xiao Lei and said excitedly.

"The Xiao family is truly about to rise to power! Perhaps it won't be long before we return to the capital!"

The members of the Xiao family were unaware of how glorious their ancestors had been. They only remembered that when the clan leader was Xiao Lin, they were the Xiao family of the capital!

Even compared to the three major families of the Gama Empire, they are not inferior.

Returning to the capital of the Gama Empire was a great honor for Xiao Zhan and his family.

Xiao Lei smiled and said, "I came back this time to discuss the relocation of the clan with the clan leader and the three elders."

"Move back to the capital now? Isn't that a bit too hasty?" The First Elder hesitated upon hearing Xiao Lei's words.

Xiao Lei smiled mysteriously and said, "Let's go back and talk in detail."

"Yes, such a major event should indeed be treated with utmost care," Xiao Zhan nodded emphatically, then led Xiao Lei and the others back to the family compound.

"You may all leave. What happened just now is not to be told to anyone, understand?"

After arriving outside the Xiao family's council hall, Xiao Zhan addressed the Xiao family stewards and guards who were with them.

"Yes, Chieftain!"

The group respectfully agreed and immediately turned and left.

Immediately, Xiao Zhan, the Third Elder, Xiao Lei, Qing Lin, and Hai Bodong all stepped into the Xiao family's council hall.

"By the way, Xiao Lei, you haven't introduced these two people next to you yet?"

Upon entering the council hall, Xiao Zhan was about to inquire about the family relocation that Xiao Lei had mentioned earlier when he noticed Hai Bodong and Qing Lin beside him and asked them instead.

Upon hearing this, the three elders looked at Hai Bodong and Qing Lin with some curiosity.

Being watched by the four people, Qinglin felt a little nervous and subconsciously moved closer to Xiao Lei.

Hai Bodong, however, remained calm and composed.

Xiao Lei said, "These are Qing Lin and Hai Bodong. Qing Lin is my personal maid. As for Hai Bodong, the clan leader and the three elders should be familiar with this name, right?"

"Hai Bodong, that name sounds familiar," Xiao Zhan frowned and pondered for a moment, then suddenly his eyes widened, and he looked at Hai Bodong with a shocked expression.

"You...you are one of the ten strongest figures in the Gama Empire, Lord Ice Emperor Hai Bodong?"

"What? Ice Emperor Hai Bodong?" The three elders finally remembered, and were all dumbfounded and shocked.

"Could it be that the Ice Emperor is Xiao Lei's master?" Suddenly, the Third Elder remembered the master that Xiao Lei had fabricated before, and guessed.
