Chapter 3783 A Gift

Xiao Qing's attitude suddenly calmed down, and he was like a servant in front of Xiao Huaiyuan.

Not only did such an expression not please Xiao Huaiyuan, but it actually made Xiao Huaiyuan feel bored. He usually looked down on such people the most.

Xiao Huaiyuan had anticipated his appearance long before Xiao Qing came, and he said in a deep voice at this moment.

"Xiao Qing, if you have anything to say, just say it directly. Don't do it in front of me. My personality has always been straightforward and I only like people who say pleasant things."

After some pleasantries, Xiao Huaiyuan said directly that he didn't want to continue to pretend to be with Xiao Qing here.

Xiao Qing also knew that with his little tricks, he could not deceive Xiao Huaiyuan's eyes. I'm afraid Xiao Huaiyuan had guessed that they were close to each other.

After thinking for a moment, Xiao Qing spoke.

"Uncle Xiao..."

"Farewell, you should just call me Xiao Huaiyuan, that way I feel more compliant."

Xiao Qing had never called him this before, and he couldn't afford to call him uncle. Xiao Qing was going against his own will when he said this title.

"Since this is the case, then I have to speak frankly. It was my fault before. I didn't obey your instructions. One of them broke into the other party's trap and killed five clan members. I have some responsibility for this matter. An inescapable responsibility.”

Xiao Qing apologized to Xiao Huaiyuan very seriously and admitted his mistake. As for the five dead clan members, he had already tried to find a way to notify his father and make arrangements for their families.

This was regarded as a little compensation for himself. Xiao Qing realized his mistake, but he was not the only one responsible for such a mistake.

If Xiao Huaiyuan believed in his own strength and treated him the same as other clan members, how could such a tragedy happen? After all, Xiao Huaiyuan also had an inescapable responsibility.

It's just that it's too late to pursue these matters now. Besides, Xiao Qing is looking for Xiao Huaiyuan at this moment to plead for mercy. Of course, he needs soft words to plead for mercy.

"It's irreparable at this point. In order to survive, I had to beg for mercy from the other party. Only then did I save my own life. Otherwise, as you know, they would definitely kill me."

He described his spinelessness as seeking perfection, which was so shameless. This was the first time Xiao Huaiyuan heard such a statement.

Thinking of the scene that happened before, the descendants of the dignified Xiao clan knelt down to the people of the Black Dragon clan, and Xiao Qing still had such an identity. The ancestral hall of his ancestors was probably so angry that it was smoking.

"I succeeded in delaying the time until you came to rescue me. Otherwise, I would have died in their hands when you passed by. If this happens, my father will definitely blame you if he knows about this."

"Oh? In that case, I tried my best to save you, and five people sacrificed their lives to protect you. You have no responsibility at all. On the contrary, it is mine, right?"

"No, no, no, that's not what I meant. I just want to clearly tell you the stakes in this matter."

Forcibly finding a reason to excuse himself from responsibility, Xiao Qing said that he was very majestic. Even if he knelt down to the other party, it was all because of his own strategy.

It was to delay time, not to truly kneel down. If he died in the hands of the Black Dragon Clan, no one present would be able to escape responsibility.

Xiao Huaiyuan understood clearly. After speaking for a long time, Xiao Qing's words still contained a threatening meaning, elevating his own status to a higher level.

The so-called confession is just to find excuses and reasons for oneself. It is really ridiculous to think that such a person will succeed the Xiao clan leader in the future.

"Xiao Huaiyuan, you should understand that in a few months, it will be time for the clan review. I am already qualified to become the next clan leader. The clan leader's reputation is related to the entire Xiao clan."

"So, what you want to say is more than just this."

"So I want you to keep it a secret. What you saw before can't be told to anyone. It must rot in your stomach."

Xiao Qing's eyes were cold and he said that among the people present, no one saw him kneeling except Xiao Huaiyuan. He had to stop Xiao Huaiyuan's mouth.

If this matter spreads among the clan, he will definitely not be able to pass the final review. Not only that, he will also be deprived of his current identity.

To be the leader of the Xiao clan, one must be outstanding and have a good reputation. The fact that Xiao Qing knelt down would completely destroy him.

"You, the elder of the clan, know better than me the consequences of speaking out. I beg you once, please help me!"

After that, Xiao Qing took out something from his body and handed it to Xiao Huaiyuan. This was regarded as a gift to Xiao Huaiyuan.

Xiao Huaiyuan's eyes were on Xiao Qing's hand, and he saw in his hand a jade magic weapon of very good quality.

Being able to refine such a magic weapon not only requires strong strength, but also requires a lot of energy to refine it. Even in his current state, he is unable to do this.

"This magic weapon is a gift to you. I took it from the clan's magic treasure house. I know you have always wanted a jade fairy sword. It should be able to surpass your discernment."

Xiao Huaiyuan squinted his eyes and hesitated for a moment. He took the thing in Xiao Qing's hand and saw that Xiao Huaiyuan accepted his gift. This matter can be done.

"So what happened before..."

Xiao Qing asked deliberately. Xiao Huaiyuan put the jade fairy sword in his sleeve and chuckled.

"What's the matter? I'm old and my memory is not good. I can't remember such things a long time ago."

"Thank you..."

With Xiao Huaiyuan's words, Xiao Qing felt more relieved. He turned and left Xiao Huaiyuan's room.

The matter has been settled, and there is no need to be attentive in front of Xiao Huaiyuan. Xiao Huaiyuan is not used to it, and he feels awkward.

After sending Xiao Qing away, Xiao Huaiyuan sighed, and the jade fairy sword in his hand was placed on the table at this moment.

A magic weapon of such quality is indeed what Xiao Huaiyuan wants, but Xiao Huaiyuan will stick to his principles no matter what he does.

If the clan held a competition, the winner would be rewarded with a fairy sword, and he would rely on his own strength to win to the end.

Unfortunately, it is not like this. Things that can be easily obtained are hot, instead of dripping blood to recognize the master and refine the fairy sword, there is another use.

"Hey... it would be great if he could use his mind on the right path. Are you planning to bribe me with such a despicable means? You really underestimated me, Xiao Huaiyuan."

Accepting Xiao Qing's gift does not mean that Xiao Huaiyuan has been bribed. The reason why he accepted it is that he does not want to see Xiao Qing's face.

If he refuses, Xiao Qing will definitely chatter in his ears. Instead of that, it is better to let his ears be quiet.
