When Xue An followed Xia Qi into the Xia Family mansion, the events that had occurred before the gate spread like wildfire.
In an instant, the entire Xia Family was ablaze with excitement.
"What? The eldest miss returned safely and brought back a top-notch master?"
"Exactly, not only that, this young man also defeated the followers of the young master before even entering the gate."
"Hiss... if that’s the case, our Xia Family might really have hope in overturning the Zhang Family’s oppression!"
"Heh, I think that’s unlikely, it’s just beating a few servants, how can it compare to those top-level cultivators of the Zhang Family?"
"You can’t say that, who knows how things will develop in the future?"
In any case, all kinds of opinions flew around!
But the impact brought by this news was immediate.
At least, many of the elders who were previously skeptical and hesitant now found their minds opening up.
In this situation, as soon as Xue An and the others entered the mansion, they received an invitation from the council of elders.
Soon, a formal invitation was sent to Xue An.
Xue An glanced down at it, his expression unchanged, without any peculiarities.
Xia Qi, however, couldn’t contain her inner excitement and whispered, "Sir, this is an invitation from our Xia Family elders for you to attend a welcome banquet soon. Will you go?"
"Of course, why not go?" Xue An said with a slight smile.
Xia Qi felt relieved, "Alright, I’ll make arrangements now!"
After saying this, Xia Qi turned and left eagerly.
Xue An watched her back with a slight smile, then looked thoughtfully towards a certain spot in the void.
"Old friend, I wonder how long it’s been since we last met. How are you now?"
Meanwhile.
Xia Yi was pacing back and forth in the room, full of anger.
"Those scoundrels, when they accepted my gifts back then, they promised across their hearts that they would stand by me. Now, they can’t wait to defect to Xia Qi’s side at the first sign of trouble. It’s outrageous!"
His subordinates were terrified, none daring to make a sound.
Until his anger was mostly vented, someone finally spoke cautiously, "Yi bro, what should we do next?"
Xia Yi stopped his steps and sneered, "What to do? Just play it cool!"
"That guy really thinks he can intimidate me with such a bit of strength? It’s utterly ridiculous. I don’t believe he can continue to be so arrogant in front of Zhang Shao!"
Having said this, he spoke in a deep voice, "Send the orders; I will also attend tonight’s banquet!"
"Yes!"
As evening approached.
The entire Xia Family was illuminated with bright lights, and the banquet hall was even more dazzling.
The high-ranking members of the Xia Family were all in attendance, waiting for tonight’s grand feast.
Before Xia Qi and others arrived, Xia Yi had already led a team into the banquet hall.
The atmosphere became somewhat awkward.
The crowd began to stir slightly.
Xia Yi remained silent, merely bowing to the Family Head Xia Zheng and numerous elders before standing aside and waiting silently.
Time ticked away moment by moment.
Finally.
When the moon hung high.
There was a commotion at the entrance of the banquet hall, and then Xia Qi led the people inside first.
Upon seeing her, many elders’ expressions slightly changed, with some even standing up in anticipation.
Following that, Xia Qi stood aside, seemingly waiting for something.
