e from the Qin Corporation, the Gao family would cooperate with the Qin family and help them enter the Hong Kong market.A glint of coldness flashed in Ye Bufan's eyes: "Then what Did your grandpa agre..."This…" Chu Xiao's expression faltered, then he regained his composure and said confidently, "Actually, the seclusion was a lie. To avoid worrying the elders of my sect, I secretly left Liuguang Jianzong during that time and went to Yuxian Mire, intending to hone myself there."

I never expected to meet Mu Shimei, which led to what happened afterward. Thinking back on it now, it must have been fate.

Ye Bufan was speechless. This guy's skin was really thick, he dared to put any flattering words on his face.

But a lie is still a lie, let's see how long he can keep it up.

Mu Feiyan said, "Don't doubt me, I won't be wrong. It was indeed Brother Chu who saved me back then, it's true."

"Well then, please accept this ring, Master Chu."

Mu Yan said, taking out a storage ring and handing it over, “There are one million lower-grade immortal crystals inside. This is to repay the young master for saving my Smoke.”

As soon as the words left his mouth, the entire crowd erupted.

That's a million! How many people haven't seen so much fairy crystal in their entire lives, and now it's within reach.

Chu Xiao looked at the storage ring in front of him, his eyes shining with delight, but he still said in a feigned manner.

"Elder, it's my duty, there is no need for such courtesy."

Chu Xiao, since the Elder has already taken it out, just take it. This is what you deserve.

Daojie said, "This time you acted bravely and earned face for our Liu Guang Jian Zong. The Law Enforcement Hall also rewarded you with one million immortal crystals."

Seeing this scene, Zu FangKui was delighted and burst into laughter.

"As my third peak disciples are so outstanding, I, as their peak master, can't be stingy either. I will reward them with one million lower-grade immortal crystals as well."

The crowd had just calmed down a bit, but after those words were spoken, the emotions flared up again instantly.

One million was already a considerable amount, but these two people kept sending out another two million each, adding up to a total of three million low-grade immortal crystals.

Such a large sum of money would be enough for many immortals' lifetime cultivation resources, which is why countless people envy them to death.

Chu Xiao was even happier than words could express. Although he came from the Chu family, he couldn't possibly control such a huge sum of wealth.

I was still worried about how to explain to the family about the 500,000 yuan I lost to Ye Bufan before. Unexpectedly, a huge pie fell from the sky and I actually managed to get three million yuan.

What pleased him most was that Mu Feiyin beside him looked at him with love in her eyes. Perhaps he could even reap both wealth and beauty, becoming the second elder's son-in-law.

To know that he is just an ordinary outer disciple now, once he becomes the granddaughter's husband of the second elder of Liuli Xianzong, his status can be said to have risen by leaps and bounds.

"Haha, it seems I'm about to reach the pinnacle of my life!"

Chu Xiao excitedly shouted in his heart, and just then Mu Yan said: "Young Master Chu, what this old man has to do is already done. Now please return the treasure you gave to Yanyan."

"Uh..."

Chu Xiao was laughing happily, but the moment she heard this sentence, she was dumbfounded.

"Elder, what...what treasure"

Mu Yan's face darkened: "Young Master Chu, that's not very nice of you."

In the Yinxian Mire, Feiyan gave all those treasures to you. If it were other things, it wouldn't matter; I, an old man, am not a stingy person.

But these things are very special, you can't keep them, you have to give them back to me.

Mu Feiyan pouted her little mouth and said unhappily, "Grandpa, how can you do this It was me who gave it to Brother Chu in the first place, why are you asking for it back"

"Nonsense, that was the dowry given to you by the Grand Elder. Since you disagree with this marriage, we must break it off."

"A broken engagement means taking the betrothal gifts back, not a single one less is acceptable!"

When he finished speaking, Ye Bufan instantly understood. No wonder this little girl had been so eager to give him those things back then, wishing to act immediately. It turned out there were so many twists and turns involved.

"I..."

Mu Feiyan had nothing more to say, but in the end, she just closed her mouth.

Mu Yan waved his hand behind him to the four people. "You guys take Yanyan back to the sect first."

"Yes!"

The four Great Ethereal Immortals responded, and Mu Feiyan gave Chu Xiao an apologetic look: "Big Brother Chu, just return it to Grandpa first. I'll compensate you later."

She also knew this place wasn't where she should stay long, so she left with the four people.

Looking at her leaving figure, and then at Mu Yan in front of him, Chu Xiao's heart was completely in disarray, his mind full of confusion.

"Damn it, I thought I had gotten a huge bargain, but now it seems like I'm going to lose out."

"What are those things, and when did I ever get them I've never seen them before, where could they be"

Mu Yan sank his face and said, “Young Master Chu, I know those things are valuable, but they ultimately don't belong to you. Are you still reluctant to return them”

"I... I..."

Chu Xiao mumbled and stammered for a long time, but couldn't utter a complete sentence.

If he had it, he would definitely return it right away. The key is that he doesn't even know what it is, so how can he help

He thought it was a pie falling from the sky, so he happily took it. However, when it hit his head, it turned out to be a heavy iron plate instead.

Tao Jie frowned: "Second Elder, what on earth is going on"

"That's how it is..."

Mu Yan sighed and recounted the events.

Originally, Mu Feiyān was his youngest granddaughter and was very much loved within the sect.

The Great Elder favored him even more, so he brought his grandson to propose marriage and presented a betrothal gift.

Mu Yan also thought the two were very suitable and agreed directly, but he didn't expect Mu Feiyyan to be extremely opposed and had a very stubborn personality.

In the end, he left home and quietly hid in the Youxian Mud Pit, but almost encountered danger.

Later, when he returned to the sect, Mu Yan no longer pressured his granddaughter and decided to break off the engagement.

"Upon inquiring, they learned that the betrothal gifts had been given to Chu Xiao by Mu Feiyanyan. This visit was to express gratitude and to take back the belongings and return them to the Great Elder's family."

"Speaking at last, he said, “Logically speaking, Young Master Chu saved my granddaughter, so an old man shouldn't care about these worldly possessions.”

"The key is that this is the betrothal gift from the Great Elder's family. If you want to break off the engagement, you have to return the gift. This is a basic courtesy and respect."

"You're right."

Daojie nodded and turned to look at Chu Xiao: "The elder has made it very clear, this is the bride price given by their family, we cannot be greedy."

A true man knows how to be thrifty, but these things should still be returned to their owner.

Chu Xiao now cries so hard, he wishes he could give back the favor, but what could he possibly give

Everyone present was confused about what was going on, but Ye Bufan was laughing inside. He originally thought he had given the other party an advantage, but unexpectedly it turned out to be a big trap.

All those things were in his hands, even the most precious Lei Ji stones had already been refined into a Yu Lei gourd. There was no way to go back and get them again.

If Chu Xiao had been honest from the beginning and explained everything clearly, there wouldn't be so much trouble now.

This guy just had to take advantage of every opportunity, and now he's reaping what he sowed. It's entirely his own fault.

Chu Xiao's face flushed red, but he couldn't come up with anything.

Mu Yan's face contorted with anger: "I've already explained things clearly, yet you still refuse to return what is owed"nly Gu. It was faster than even a Heaven Stage expert. There was no possibility of escaping.She was also an extremely decisive person. After a moment's hesitation, she knelt down with a thud: "Junior...
