Chapter 298: The Dou Family (I)
"Xiao Xian…"
Li Yuanjiao stroked the Dragon Coiling Pillar sword at his waist, his brows furrowing. Unlike Li Tongya or Li Xuanxuan, who, despite their unassuming appearances, were deep thinkers, the narrow gap between his eyebrows lent him an untrustworthy appearance. Now, with his brows furrowed, he looked even more like a serpent dragon.
"The Mount Yu branch of the Xiao Family... Qingxiao's marriage into their family is somewhat of a slight, but Xiao Jiuqing is quite adept and has a promising future. If Xiao Xian is sincere and my little sister is willing, he might be a good match."
"The Mount Yu branch is one of the most prominent branches in the Xiao Family," Xiao Guiluan remarked, holding onto Li Yuanjiao's arm.
"Xiao Xian's talent is not great, but he has the potential to achieve the Qi Cultivation Realm. Qingxiao's talent is poor, but with the resources of the Mount Yu branch, Xiao Xian could help her reach the Qi Cultivation Realm with unrefined qi which is a good thing," she continued.
As they chatted and laughed, Mount Lijing appeared beneath them. The couple descended into the courtyard where the clan guards immediately approached, greeting them respectfully.
"Family Head, Madam… Young Master Yuanping is already waiting in the house."
Li Yuanjiao nodded slightly and pushed the door open. Inside, a young boy dressed in white clothes was admiring the calligraphy and paintings on the wall, holding a fan. He appeared to be about twelve or thirteen years old, with a slightly pale face that gave him a sickly look.
Hearing the door open, he turned his head, his eyes lighting up as he smiled, "Brother, you are back!"
