Man in Marvel: The Manifestation of the Gods

Roddy felt the five people's eyes were focused on him, so he stepped forward and bowed.

"Patriarch, Great Elder, Grandfather, Third Elder."

The burly man sitting in the first seat was Xiao Zhan, Xiao Yan's adoptive father. He looked Rody up and down.

Putting aside other things, Rody's appearance is enough to make him the most handsome young man in the Xiao family.

Xiao Zhan also wondered in his heart, could it be that just because he is handsome, a wife will come to him?

Then Xiao Zhan glanced at the Second Elder who was sitting there with a grin on his face. After all, according to Xiao Yuanshan, these pills could be considered part of the bride's dowry.

As a grandfather, even if he doesn't swallow all of his grandson's pills, he should at least give him a share.

As for the Qi Gathering Powder, two portions would be enough for Xiao Di and Xiao Mei. If the rest could be distributed to other promising talents in their lineage, they could even buy it from their grandson at the same price.

How could he not be happy when it could rapidly expand the strength of the Second Elder's lineage?

Although it sounds a bit inhumane, in such a large family, the interest relationship is always an insurmountable hurdle.

With these pills, the Second Elder began to look at this good grandson, whom he usually didn't pay much attention to, with a more favorable attitude, and stood up eagerly.

"Good grandson, come on, come on, sit down and talk."

Roddy rolled his eyes in his heart, wondering why he always felt like he was being taken advantage of.

Chapter 247: Refusing to Marry Xun'er

In the Xiao family banquet hall

Rody temporarily suppressed his complaints, smiled at the old man, nodded and thanked Xiao Zhan and the elders, and then sat down in his seat with some "restraint".

Roddy is maintaining his shy personality and doesn't like being in crowded places.

And there is Xiao Mei.

On the contrary, the little girl was not nervous at all. With a smile on her face, she greeted the leaders of the Xiao family one by one in a sweet voice.

He sat down next to Rody, his eyes constantly wandering to Xiao Yuanshan next to him.

Xiao Mei has good talents, a cute appearance, a sharp tongue and is able to please others. She is a popular figure in the clan and in the eyes of the old man.

At least he is more favored than Rody, tsk.

Xiao Zhan and the others smiled at each other, thinking that Xiao Mei just wanted to join in the fun, and did not have any complaints about Xiao Mei following along.

Xiao Mei greeted them all with a smile and agreed. It was a good thing to invite Rody over this time. Xiao Mei was Rody's younger sister. If she could help persuade them, this marriage might be successful.

"Mei'er, I haven't seen Grandpa for a long time. Is Grandpa in good health? Hey, this uncle is~"

But today Xiao Mei seemed to be more active. She actually stared at Xiao Yuanshan curiously and spoke.

The Second Elder looked at Xiao Zhan and smiled, ruffling his beard: "Haha Mei'er, don't be rude. This is Uncle Xiao Yuanshan."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Mei narrowed her eyes and felt a little nervous. She thought to herself that this was not good. This person from the ancient tribe was coming for her brother.

What should I do?

...

opposite.

"I don't think there's anything special about this kid."

Xiao Yuanshan kept looking at the seemingly 'well-behaved' Rody, feeling quite disappointed.

In his opinion, apart from his handsome appearance, which made people feel good about him, there was nothing else worth noting about this young man.

But good looks are no match for great talent.

In Zhongzhou.

Countless young talents are waiting for the lady to choose, if Gu Xun'er wants.

But why did the young lady insist on running to this remote corner of the continent to find this mediocre boy?

If this matter gets out.

Tsk~ I’m afraid most of Zhongzhou will be shaken.

This was something he couldn't figure out no matter how hard he tried.

Xiao Yuanshan naturally knew that the Xiao family was the descendant of the ancient Xiao clan, but the current Xiao family had even lost the last Dou Wang, the father of the clan leader Xiao Zhan.

Only those members whose talents have been drained are left, and the entire clan has only powerful fighters. It can be said that the Xiao clan is not worthy of the name at all.

In a world where the strong are respected.

The most important reason why the eight ancient clans are the ruling class is that there are super strong people at the level of Dou Sheng in their families.

But even though he looked down on this ordinary boy in his heart, Xiao Yuanshan did not show it. After all, he had received a death order from the young lady, and he had to respect Xiao Di as much as he respected her.

What else could Xiao Yuanshan do? The clan leader had already told the little princess to act on her own.

He didn't dare to say that the clan leader and the little princess were both confused. Even if they were, it was he who was confused.

...

and so.

After simply observing the silent Rody for a moment, Xiao Yuanshan smiled and greeted him.

"This must be the second elder's grandson. He is indeed very handsome. There is no need to be restrained. Just call me Uncle Xiao."

Since that was what he said, Roddy naturally nodded in agreement.

"Hello, Uncle Xiao."

Roddy wanted to see what this guy was up to.

At the same time, Rody glanced at the wooden box of elixirs on the table. Could it be that the ancient clan planned to exchange the elixirs for the Ancient Emperor Jade?

But this probably has nothing to do with him.

Just as he was thinking about it, the second elder said something that made Roddy's expression become strange.

"Xiao Di, you should have met your sister Xun'er this afternoon."

"Yes, I met Sister Xun'er in the back mountain this afternoon." Rody hesitated. Why did the old man ask this?

He had a vague feeling that something was not right.

"That's good. Xiaodi, what do you think of that sister Xun'er?"

"Xun...How is sister Xun'er?"

Seeing Rody's surprised question, the second elder nodded with a smile.

"If you think Xun'er is good, Xiaodi, you are young, so why not develop more."

No...something's wrong!

Roddy felt very strange when hearing his cheap grandfather's words, and a strange idea came to his mind.

Could it be that Gu Xun'er has some kind of reverse golden finger?

Something like the protagonist doesn't have a cheat code, and the supporting character can eavesdrop on the protagonist's thoughts. Roddy's imagination is divergent.

...

"Well..."

Rody felt his sister pulling his arm with force.

Xiao Mei has been acting a little strange recently.

"Sister Xun'er is extremely beautiful and talented. Xiao Di doesn't dare to have any improper thoughts in his mind."

Roddy spoke carefully, but waited for him to finish his excuse.

"Click——"

There was a crisp sound, and it turned out that the teacup Xiao Yuanshan was holding was broken into pieces by his force.

The tea flowed down Xiao Yuanshan's broad palm.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Xiao Yuanshan shook his hands expressionlessly and wiped them with a handkerchief.

“This cup is a bit brittle.”

Xiao Zhan reacted very quickly, glanced at Xiao Di, and thought to himself, is this guy pretending to be confused when he knows the truth? On the surface, he was smiling.

"Indeed, indeed, that person who came - what's wrong with this teacup? Go and change it immediately."

As for Rody, he clearly saw the flash of anger in Xiao Yuanshan's eyes just now.

Roddy: ...

There was something wrong with the way the plot was unfolding. The more he thought about it, the weirder it seemed.

...

How could Xiao Yuanshan not be angry?

That was the little princess of the ancient clan, and she was rejected by an unknown boy. Xiao Yuanshan couldn't control his anger for a moment.

This kid! How dare you!

As for the second elder, seeing that his good grandson actually refused, he beat his chest in his heart and said, "You are so stupid, why are you refusing? Such a great thing has come to you."

Not good enough?

Who says you are not worthy of me? Even if you are not worthy of me, how can you refuse me?

"Well, Xiaodi, who can predict the future? Let me make the decision for you. Spend more time with Xun'er."

No matter if there is affection or not, it's best if there is, but if there is not? Even if there is no affection, you have to create opportunities. The second elder felt that he was worried about his good grandson.

Roddy caught a glimpse of the old man's suggestive look and felt bitter. My goodness, the old man said it so easily, 'development, development', but is it possible to develop?

Is he worthy of development?

Now I feel that this matter is strange, and it is absolutely impossible to let Rody agree to it.

careful!

He was not at the stage where he was blinded by beauty. He could tell from the look of it that there were bad intentions behind it, and anyone who agreed to it would be a fool.
