Chapter 4311: Changes in the Inner Demon

Because of his inner obsession and a series of events that happened later, Xiao Huaili put all the faults on others, even though they had nothing to do with others.

Over time, his inner obsession turned into resentment. Perhaps it was because of the indifference of the people around him, or perhaps it was because Xiao Huaili was a master of disguise, and no one noticed the change in his mentality.

I always thought that Xiao Huaili was still the same person as before, but I didn’t know that Xiao Huaili had already changed, and was slowly controlled by the inner demon, becoming a monster that was neither human nor ghost.

This state lasted until the Xiao clan established Xiao Huaiyi’s status. He was unwilling to lose like this, and he would be suppressed by others all his life, and he would never think of standing up.

So when Xiao Huaiyi went out to perform a mission and was about to return to the Xiao clan, Xiao Huaili took his confidants and about 30 masters, intending to intercept and kill his strongest opponent on the way back.

However, even though he was so prepared, he bribed more than 30 masters to deal with Xiao Huaiyi at the same time. More than 30 people tried their best, but the final result was still failure. It took Xiao Huaiyi less than ten minutes for everyone to lie down.

At that moment, Xiao Huaili finally understood that the gap between him and his second brother could not be made up by the advantage of numbers. No matter how many people there were, it would be useless, because his recklessness and blind self-confidence exposed his ambition.

The other 30 people were all questioned, but Xiao Huaiyi showed mercy and did not kill them. According to the rules of the Xiao clan, he gave them a lighter sentence and sent them to the netherworld, and they were not allowed to return to the Xiao clan for life.

This was a very severe punishment for them, but they were able to keep their lives, which showed the generosity of Xiao Huaiyi. After solving the rebellion of these 30 people, it was his turn, Xiao Huaili.

The other 30 people were just followers who rebelled. The real mastermind of the incident was Xiao Huaili, so his punishment would certainly not be reduced. According to the rules, Xiao Huaili would never be able to survive.

Even he himself thought that since he had the intention to kill Xiao Huaiyi, Xiao Huaiyi would certainly get rid of him. If he thought of it for the sake of brotherhood, he would also be expelled from the Xiao clan and would never come back.

However, the result was beyond his expectations. The incident would have caused a lot of uproar and the entire Xiao clan would have been spread.

But Xiao Huaiyi actually helped him to suppress the influence of this incident to the minimum, and did not use harsh measures on his execution.

He was not even imprisoned in the clan's prison. Originally, he would be thrown into the prison for such a mistake, and no one was allowed to visit him until the time of trial came.

After this incident, Xiao Huaili returned to his residence. Although he was not punished, Xiao Huaili felt uneasy and lived in fear all day long. There was a knife hanging on his neck, which would fall at any time.

Until one day, Xiao Huaili entered his residence and opened the door.

Knowing that he had done something wrong, Xiao Huaili did not dare to face Xiao Huaiyi's gaze. At that time, he still had a trace of conscience deep in his heart.

What is coming will eventually come. There was no public information, and he thought that Xiao Huaiyi wanted to execute him secretly. To this day, he still remembers the scene of that day clearly, as if it happened yesterday.

Xiao Huaiyi came to her, patted his shoulder with one hand a few times, and sighed with a bit of disappointment in his eyes.

"Huai Li, you and I have different fates. I know you want to be the patriarch. In your eyes, the patriarch is a symbol of status and power, and it also represents that your ability has reached its peak."

"If you consider the entire Xiao clan, I don't have to sit in the position of patriarch, but you don't know what it means to sit in this position. This is a responsibility and commitment. The future of the entire Xiao clan is all in your hands."

"So I have to advise you to wipe out your ambition as soon as possible. I can treat the previous things as nothing happened. I have blocked the news and few people know about it. You can do it yourself."

After leaving a few words, Xiao Huaiyi turned and left. Suddenly, in Xiao Huaili's heart, there was a feeling of escaping death.

What he had been worried about did not happen unexpectedly. If Xiao Huaiyi had investigated the matter at that time, there would not have been these tragedies later. After all, all this was due to the kindness of this man.

Xiao Huaili was not questioned. Instead of thanking his brother, he felt that Xiao Huaiyi looked down on him and did not take him seriously at all.

He did not kill Xiao Huaili out of consideration for the brotherhood. In Xiao Huaili's heart, he felt even more resentful. At that time, Xiao Huaili understood that if he wanted to get rid of the strongest opponent in his life, he had to find strong external aid.

So Xiao Huaili thought of something that happened before. He followed Xiao Huaili and met the strong men of the Black Dragon Clan. At the beginning, he kept a watchful eye and did not reveal the news. Now it seems to be the right choice.

So during an opportunity to go out, Xiao Huaili found traces of those people's activities and forced them to show up, telling them his plans and ambitions, with the goal of reaching cooperation with them.

It was not easy to kill Xiao Huaiyi. The only way was to launch a sneak attack. Only these people knew the weakness of the Xiao clan. Soon Xiao Huaili got the answer he had been waiting for.

The other party agreed to Xiao Huaili's request and appointed one of the guardians to assist Xiao Huaili. In addition, there was a more important point. They brought the Xiao clan's greatest restraint, the Soul Devouring Formation!

The Soul Devouring Formation is an evil formation that can trap people and prevent them from circulating their Dao Qi. Once the formation is activated, there is no way to escape from it. It is like adding a shackle to a person.

However, this formation requires four powerful people to activate it. Xiao Huaili can only be counted as one of them. Including the help of the Black Dragon Clan, there are still two people that Xiao Huaili needs to find.

For this reason, the guardian of the Black Dragon Clan recommended a person to Xiao Huaili. Whether he can persuade him to take action depends on Xiao Huaili's own ability. All the methods and manpower were provided to Xiao Huaili.

This plan itself is also testing Xiao Huaili's ability. Whether he can do it and whether it is worth their investment and trust are two different things.

As expected, Xiao Huaili found a powerful helper. The four of them conspired and discussed, and took action on the way to Xiao Huaiyi's succession ceremony as the patriarch, and seized the position of patriarch from him.

Afterwards, the two sides kept in touch, but Xiao Huaili believed that as the patriarch of the Xiao clan, he should stay away from these people, otherwise it would affect his status. This situation lasted for more than ten years.

Until one day that person appeared...
