Li Yuanxi made no next move, but turned around and walked back to Lin Qiaoni.
Huo Nai knelt beside Huo Miaotian, with his eyes closed and his expression extremely serious.
"Some people will come and carry him down."
As soon as Huo Nai spoke, several servants from the Huo family ran over and carried Huo Mingxuan down. Huo Nai didn't say to give his grandson first aid, but everyone knew that Huo Nai immediately had someone carry him down just to get him treatment quickly. On the surface, he closed his eyes and ignored it, but in his heart he must be extremely heartbroken.
"Now, I can save my father." Huonai's voice was low and steady, but there was a hint of great grief in it.
"Well, it's okay now." Xu Qian's tone was relaxed, which was very different from Huo Nai.
Huo Nai was overjoyed and quickly took out a pill from his spiritual ring and put it into Huo Miaotian's mouth.
Pei Qian had been paying attention silently. When he saw Huo Miaotian swallowing the pill, he finally felt relieved. If Huo Miaotian is not dead, his purpose of coming to the Huo family can be considered achieved.
It can be said that almost everyone present was in the same mood as Pei Qian. Whether it was relief or the sky was clear after the rain, everyone felt that tonight's incident was finally over. Although Huo Miaotian's spiritual ring was gone, for ordinary people For the Huo family, Huo Nai's spiritual ring is much more important than Huo Miaotian's, as long as Huo Miaotian is alive.
Xu Qian and Li Yuanxi silently looked at Huo Miaotian, who was recovering quickly. Like everyone else, they were waiting, but the results of waiting might be different.
Not long after, Huo Miaotian opened his eyes. He stared at Xu Qian fiercely.
Huo Miaotian stood up. The momentum on his body and the confidence on his face were announcing to everyone that he, the leader of the Huo family, had made a strong return.
"Thank you, Advisor Pei, for your help." Huo Miaotian saluted Pei Qian.
"Etiquette" is still very complicated to pay attention to, especially in the eyes of an older generation of monks like Huo Miaotian. Every kind of ritual has its own profound meaning and there is absolutely no confusion.
For example, Huo Miaotian's courtesy to Pei Qianxing was just a superficial courtesy. He said thank you, but the "courtesy" was not deceptive. It was a courtesy from an elder to a younger one, just like saying "Hello, little Pei." "A meaning.
Pei Qian's kindness to the Huo family can be great or small. Being able to come when he encountered a strong enemy was a great favor. However, in fact, Pei Qian did not help in any real way. At least Huo Miaotian was Think so. Relying on his age and seniority, he took the initiative to say hello to Pei Qian. If it was normal, he felt that Pei Qian should be the one to salute and say hello to him.
Pei Qian understood what Huo Miaotian was thinking in an instant. He didn't show anything. He just smiled and said in return, "I was just entrusted by Yan Cixi, so there is no need to thank me. Mr. Huo is fine, and I can leave with peace of mind." ”
When it comes to Yan Cixi, Huo Miaotian feels particularly proud, which is why he looks down on Pei Qian in his heart.
Yan Wensou is the second advisor to the General Bureau of the Special Branch. His cultivation level is at the highest level in China. His specific age is unknown. He has been on good terms with the Huo family before Huo Miaotian was born. He can be said to be the biggest backer and supporter of the Huo family at the moment. rely.
Pei Qian is only a third-level consultant, the lowest among the official consultants of the General Bureau of Special Branch. He is protected by the second-ranking officer Yan Wensou. Pei Qian is also a junior. Huo Miaotian feels that he can salute him. This is very embarrassing to Pei Qian.
"Consultant Pei, please stay."
Pei Qian didn't know why and looked at Huo Miaotian doubtfully.
The corners of Xu Qian's mouth rose slightly. He knew that the scene he expected was about to take place.
"Consultant Pei, Taigong Yan asked you to come here, not just to stand here and watch the show!"
Huo Miaotian's words left everyone present confused. Consultant Pei came over to help the Huo family. Why did his grandfather speak so rudely to others?
"Oh? Mr. Huo, I don't know what you mean by this?" Pei Qian was well-behaved, neither angry nor annoyed, with a calm look on his face.
"My Huo family was bullied like this by others, and your consultant Pei didn't even move a hand. He just left. I'm afraid it won't be easy to treat Mrs. Yan when we go back."
"Hahahaha——" Pei Qian looked up and laughed, "I don't know, Mr. Huo, what do you think I should do to explain?"
Huo Miaotian snorted coldly, "Help me kill these two people and avenge the Huo family's shame!"
There was already some coolness in the mountains in early November. A gust of evening wind blew through Chiyan Villa, and a chill filled the hearts of the Huo family.
Pei Qian looked directly at Xu Qian. He didn't see the slightest emotional fluctuation in the latter's eyes. He admired Xu Qian's control ability in his heart, because even if he had already had a premonition, when Huo Miaotian said these words, , gave birth to strong dissatisfaction.
For Pei Qian, the Huo family finally rescued Huo Miaotian, and now he is alive and kicking, but they are trying to kill Xu Qian. Where does this put the Huo family and his previous actions? Moreover, he was asking for help. Huo Miaotian not only did not lower his posture, but ordered him as if he were in a superior position. Even Yan Cixi would not speak to him like this. Huo Miaotian must have emotional intelligence. How low?
"I refuse!" Pei Qian's answer was beyond Huo Miaotian's expectation.
"Reject? Why do you refuse?" Huo Miaotian asked sternly. He couldn't believe that Pei Qian would reject him.
"Why should I refuse? It's ridiculous. Why can't I refuse?" Pei Qian laughed angrily.
"Do you dare to disobey Taigong Yan's order?" Huo Miaotian no longer retained even the little respect he pretended to have for Pei Qian, with a look of disdain on his face, as if he was Yan Wensou.
"Joke!" Pei Qian suppressed his smile and glared at him, "Although I am only a third-level consultant, I do not need to take orders from Yan Cixi. There is no superior-subordinate relationship between consultants. Not to mention Yan Cixi, I am Chief Xuan. You have no right to order me."
Huo Miaotian was a little stunned. Although the Huo family had some connections with Yan Wenfou, they did not understand the relationship between the advisors. Huo Miaotian instinctively felt that with Yan Wenfou's cultivation, he must be the leader of Pei Qian. Besides, the monk's When has the world not respected the strong? He had never thought that the third-level advisor did not need to obey the orders of the second-level advisor.
Huo Miaotian immediately turned his head and looked at Fang Desheng, intending to verify Pei Qian's statement. The branch director who came to pay New Year's greetings every year was always rejected. At this moment, he could only nod with a wry smile.
Huo Miaotian felt bad, and only then did he regret his previous attitude towards Pei Qian.
Xu Qian watched the show happily and said jokingly: "Old man Huo, do you still want to fight? Do you still want your spiritual ring?"
One sentence reminded everyone. Huo Miaotian wanted to fight Xu Qian and others again, not to avenge the Huo family, but to regain the spiritual ring with the help of Pei Qian's power. If you want to avenge your shame, you can take a long-term view in the future. There is no need to find a way back to the situation when the Huo family is at a disadvantage. But if the spiritual ring is taken away, we can't wait any longer. As time goes by, God knows whether the things inside are still there.
Huo Miaotian glared at Xu Qian. He had no intention of quarreling with Xu Qian. Instead, he squeezed out a smile and said to Pei Qian: "Consultant Pei, I was the one who asked you to please Yuan You. For the sake of Taigong Yan. Come on, just take action once and work with me to deal with these two arrogant people. My Huo family will be very grateful afterwards."
"Arrogant?" Xu Qian sneered twice, "You are arrogant, okay? For the sake of the secret method and giving birth to a baby for your Huo family, you are shameless, and you also threatened that you can do whatever you want if you have the strength. Treat the branch director of the Special Branch like this You treat your domestic servants like you do, and because you have some connections in the General Administration, you also give orders to the advisors of the General Administration. Where is the Special Branch? It is a national agency that manages monks, not run by your family! I am also a Special Branch after all. Are you the one who can kill the bureau’s external monks just as you say?”
Xu Qian's words were unpleasant to hear, but they pointed to the essence. How excessive Huo Miaotian's behavior was was revealed nakedly after Xu Qian took off some of his clothes.
The most important thing is that the Huo family is, after all, a family with superpowers and is managed by the Special Branch. Xu Qian is a member of the Special Branch. Huo Miaotian wants to kill Xu Qian, which essentially means that the superpower wants to kill the Special Branch. This is a standard black cultivator behavior for those who deal with the situation.
