Tsk, look at this situation; it really seems like a discussion is about to take place.
Sang Qingxiao didn’t wait for anyone to invite her; she found a seat and sat down, looking serious as she accompanied him in the act. The big man said, "The Qi Family sent me here with instructions, and I’m all ears."
He had come to discuss matters regarding the young lady and her relationship with Lao Qi. Sang Qingxiao spoke again, taking control of the conversation. However, I heard Qi Xiaomian say that his marriage was not something the Qi Family could decide; His Majesty had once decreed that he could choose for himself and would even grant him a marriage.
Moreover, my relationship with him hasn’t reached that point yet; the Qi Family seems a bit too eager. Don’t you already have a granddaughter? I really don’t understand what you’re in such a hurry for.
At that moment, someone came back with a message. It was said that the lady was ill and couldn’t come. They also conveyed a message stating that she firmly opposed her being with Qi Xiaomian!
Qi Hao snorted coldly, saying, "Since when did the Qi Family’s affairs become her decision?" He pretended to comfort Sang Qingxiao, adding that this matter wasn’t up to her and she needn’t pay it any mind.
Sang Qingxiao immediately nodded, "I understand; this matter is decided by His Majesty." As for the Qi Family, Chen Yan is based on you, and with our little miscellaneous matters added in, wouldn’t it be easy to overshadow your prominence?
In my opinion, there’s no need to discuss this further. We Demon Catchers are like those in the Jianghu; we don’t care about others’ rumors and slanders. If they offend me, I’ll just teach them a lesson and see if they dare to speak again!
Qi Hao’s face turned stern. "You all think of my intentions as foolishness? All this effort wasted! I’ve already instructed people to start preparing."
"Oh really!" Sang Qingxiao exclaimed in surprise. "They’ve already exhausted themselves for your Chen Yan. Adding our little trivial matters into the mix would surely keep them running around!"
What a sin! If some of them were to collapse before the banquet, it would be an ominous sign. The Qi Family should quickly tell them to stop; we can’t bear such a burden.
Qi Hao’s expression grew darker as he huffed angrily, "If you’re unhappy, then just leave me out of it! Don’t blame me for being meddlesome!"
Sang Qingxiao showed a worried expression. "Qi Family, I tend to speak my mind; perhaps I shouldn’t provoke you further."
Qi Hao waved his hand dismissively. "As an elder, am I really going to argue with you, a junior? It’s just a small matter."
The big man said if you’re busy and the discussion is over, then he wouldn’t disturb your busy schedule any longer?
"Wait, there’s still one more thing."
"Please go ahead."
"Miss Sang’s affairs have already spread throughout the Demon Catching Realm. Some of my Demon Catcher friends came to celebrate my birthday and happened to meet Miss Sang; they wanted to spar with you."
"Is it those few outside?" Qi Hao nodded.
Sang Qingxiao displayed an expression of displeasure. How could people behave like this? Were they trying to bully the weak with their numbers? Each one of them was an old senior with gray hair, seasoned in the Demon Catching Realm, yet they claimed they wanted to spar with me!
I don't think they want to spar; they plan to team up and teach me a lesson! Is it because I've been too high-profile in Jingjing City? Have I stolen their thunder?
But so what if I'm high-profile! The Demon Catching Family and the Yong Family even praised me for bringing glory to the Demon Catcher. The Fifth Family also has a good impression of me. Neither of these top-tier families has stepped forward to challenge me.
So where does this grandstanding from these friends of the Qi Family come from? Which Demon Catching Family are they representing?
