Chapter 15 - What? I already knew it

Xiao Li: Haha, Xiao Lingxi is your daughter, so of course you would say that! However, the truth is already clear, whatever you have to say is completely useless! If you dare to shield and obstruct this arrest again, don't blame me for not acknowledging our Xiao Clan's relationship as I'll also seize you together with them!

Xiao Lie: Yes, it's true that I did tell Xi'er that the Profound Opening Powder had the ability to repair profound veins. I instantly regretted it after I told her that, because knowing her personality, I was afraid that she would be impulsive enough to steal the Profound Opening Powder.

As a result, I stood in front of her courtyard's doorway all night, until dawn! She absolutely did not even take half a step outside her courtyard entrance!

Jean: And here is another proof!

Xiao Li: Tch! In order to absolve your daughter's crime, you could actually think up of such a ridiculous reason! Think about it, would anyone even believe your words? Our friends present today, do anyone of you believe him?

But in the presence of the Xiao Sect, no one dared to speak.

Xiao Lie: I, Xiao Lie have always lived a straightforward and upright life! Although not a true gentleman, I have never looked down on a person of lower status! I have never harmed anyone, nor have I deceived anyone!

If what I said earlier had even half an untruth, may the heavens and earth punish me, and condemn me to a terrible death!

Xiao Lie's words struck the hearts of the people, and they finally remembered… Xiao Lie was not only the strongest in Floating Cloud City, but his integrity was also well known! But…

?: Hahahahaha!

Everyone turned towards Xiao Yulong, who was laughing.

Xiao Yulong: In this matter, this Xiao Yulong has absolutely no right to speak or intervene, but all of a sudden, when I heard Fifth Elder's grand speech, I truly couldn't hold back anymore….

A person who has fooled the entire Xiao Clan these ten or so years, unexpectedly professed himself to be a 'straightforward and upright person that had never deceived another'! This is simply a joke bigger than the heavens itself!

Those words startled everyone, making Xiao Lie knit his eyebrows.

Xiao Lie: Xiao Yulong, what do you mean!

Xiao Yunhai: Yulong! Fifth Elder has always been a person of virtue and prestige. In the presence of our noble guests from the Xiao Sect, in the presence of our Xiao Clan, and in the presence of our friends from Floating Cloud City, you mustn't indiscriminately gossip!

Xiao Yulong: I request father to rest assure, your son naturally would not dare to speak so casually in broad daylight.

Fifth Elder, you claim to be a 'straightforward and upright person who had never deceived another', then do you dare to pledge on your son Xiao Ying's lifetime of honor and glory…. that Xiao Che is indeed your blood-related grandson!!

Those words made Xiao Lie's entire body tremble and his pupils contract, he finally realized that Xiao Yulong heard everything about what he said in front of Xiao Ying's grave…

But he didn't noticed Jean's blank face that let out a sigh. At least he has a good reason to leave the Xiao Clan and go around the world without any problem and search for a solution to heal his profound vein.

Xiao Yunhai: Yulong! What is this about?

Xiao Yulong: A few days ago when I went to the cemetery at the rear mountain to pay my respects, I coincidentally met Fifth Elder.

At that time, he was standing in front of his son, Xiao Ying's grave and was mumbling something to himself… But I heard it very clearly, he was saying… that Xiao Che was in fact, not Xiao Ying's biological son!

Xiao Yunhai: This… Yulong! This is a major matter that concerns our very bloodlines, you absolutely cannot speak recklessly!!

Xiao Yulong: Of course I wouldn't dare to lie about such a big matter. As for the truth, won't you know after you ask the Fifth Elder…

Fifth Elder, I guess you already heard what I said clearly, if you have a clear conscience, and that Xiao Che is really your biological grandson, then do you dare to swear on the honor of your son?

However… Xiao Lie stood silent… Xiao Lingxi shook Xiao Lie's body and shouted at him with a terrified tone.

Xiao Lingxi: Father, how can Little Che not be your biological grandson… Father, quickly say something, quickly tell them!

Xiao Yunhai: Fifth Elder, how did that come about? Were the words that Yulong said the truth?

?: Yes, it's the truth…

The one to answer is unexpectedly Jean, shocking everyone.

Xiao Lie: Che'er…

Jean: What? I already knew it… But so what? Who was the one who played with me since I was 1 year old?

Xiao Lingxi: Little Che…

Jean: Who was the one who took care of me when I was in danger, when I was hungry, and in everything else?

Xiao Lie: Che'er…

Jean: You two are still the people I consider my family, it doesn't matter if we aren't blood-related, you two are still my grandfather and my aunt, besides, there isn't any other relative that I know of.

Xiao Li: Simply ridiculous! Ridiculous! This youngster that our Xiao Clan had raised for an entire sixteen years, does not belong to our Xiao Clan, and is actually a bastard who carried the blood of an outsider… This is practically the biggest joke in the history of Xiao Clan!

Xiao Ze: Xiao Lie! You actually brought a bastard into our Xiao Clan, and let our Xiao Clan raise him for an entire sixteen years! How do you want us… to even scold you! Argh!

Xiao Cheng: You clearly know he is a bastard but you still kept him in Xiao Clan, and let him enjoy the privilege of being an Elder's grandson! Xiao Lie, you actually lied to our entire clan for sixteen years.

If Yulong didn't discover this by luck, perhaps we would get duped by you forever. By that time, the descendants of Xiao Clan would have been mixed with the blood of outsiders! Xiao Lie, do you know how big of a sin that is!

Xiao Bo: No wonder every of our Xiao Clan's descendants had above average talent, but all of a sudden a broken profound vein trash appeared! So it turns out that this trash Xiao Clan had raised for sixteen years was actually a bastard!

If this were to spread, won't our Xiao Clan become the laughingstock of Floating Cloud City!

Xiao Yunhai: Fifth Elder, this is… is… Argh!

Xiao Kuangyun: Hehe, you guys have truly let me witness such an extremely amusing show. The Xiao Clan which have developed to what it is today with great difficulty, unexpectedly has mingled in a bastard that came from nowhere! Even I am feeling embarrassed for you all!

Today is Xiao Clan's general meeting, other than the people of Xiao Clan and the people that were invited, outsiders have no place here! Xiao Clan Master, what are you still waiting for, quickly throw this bastard out and from this day onwards, he should not be allowed to even take half a step into the Xiao Clan!!

Xiao Yunhai gritted his teeth and spoke again.

Xiao Yunhai: Xiao Che, you already admitted that you aren't part of the Xiao Clan; you don't have our Xiao Clan's blood in your body either…

Although our Xiao Clan had raised you in vain for sixteen years, but in these sixteen years, you were in the dark as well and if we were to go after you for anything, it would instead show our pettiness…

Just leave, quickly leave our Xiao Clan. From now on, you have nothing to do with our Xiao Clan and you are not allowed to take even half a step into our Xiao Clan ever again!

Jean: Don't mind me, I will leave right now. But outsider or not, my points still stand about you framing my aunt!

He turned around and faced Xiao Lie, he nodded with a serious expression, while Xiao Lie sighed and his eyes started to tremble.

Jean: Like I said before, even if in these 16 years you aren't my grandfather by blood, you are my grandfather by heart.

He bowed down in front of Xiao Lie, then he left with a smile on his face.

Xiao Lingxi: Little Che!!!

Xiao Lingxi sobbing shouts came from behind, but Jean continued to walk without even turning around. And when he passed by Xia Qingyue...

Jean: Please keep my grandfather and little aunt safe… Please do it...

Then he continued to walk away after murmuring those words, Xia Qingyue was with him for not even a month, and she already knew enough about Jean to know what that plea meant for him.

The atmosphere didn't help her with keeping her cool, and her heart heavily quivered… She couldn't help but involuntarily nod her head. However…

Xiao Yulong: Wait a minute! You can't leave just yet!
