Chapter 12 - Tired as fu?k... (1/2)

Some time after Xiao Lingxi left, Xia Qingyue turned back, this time she was wearing a blue and white dress.

Jean: The blue suits you more than red… Anyway, thanks for the soup, it was delicious.

Xia Qingyue: Mm… The Xiao Sect people will arrive this afternoon. The leader is the youngest son of the Xiao Sect's master, called Xiao Kuangyun.

I heard master say that this Xiao Kuangyun's profound strength cultivation can only be considered average among the younger generation of the Xiao Sect, and his reputation abroad is extremely poor. However, he is excessively spoiled because he's the youngest son. There's no one in Floating Cloud City that dares to provoke him. It's best to try to avoid meeting him face to face.

Jean: *Sigh* That will be hard… Thanks for telling me, Qingyue.

He looked at his watch and saw it was the 11:23.

[Later]

The Xiao Clan was completely clean due to the news of the incoming Xiao Sect.

Xiao Yunhai, the Clan Master, immediately checked if everything was in order when at the 16:00, someone called him.

?: Clan Master! They… they've arrived!! Xiao Sect's people have arrived… That loftiness… it's definitely the Xiao Sect!

Xiao Yunhai: Quick! Immediately notify everyone to be ready. I definitely won't forgive anyone who messes up and offends the noble guests! Fellow elders, follow me out to meet them at once!

Then he and the elders hastily walked to the main entrance and found 4 people walking towards them.

The one leading the other 3 people was a young man around 20 years with luxurious clothing, a normal build, and mediocre features. His face contained a trace of sallowness, his appearance that of an excessive hedonist.

However, even such an ordinary face was full of wild arrogance and haughtiness. His hands were behind his back, his eyes looking upwards, not even glancing at the occasional passerby.

Xiao Yunhai: *Deep breath* Excuse me, are you four the noble guests from the Xiao Sect?

The man leading the group stepped forward and lazily said.

?: That's right, this noble one is the Xiao Sect's Xiao Kuangyun.

Xiao Yunhai: It turned out to be four noble guests, that's great! We have been looking forward to your arrival for a long time. Your humble servant is Floating Cloud City's Xiao Clan's current clan master. The five behind me are the Xiao Clan's five esteemed elders. For four noble guests to come out all this way for our Xiao Clan, we are extremely grateful and humbled.

Xiao Kuangyun: There's no need to continue with the nonsense. Lead the way!

Xiao Yunhai: Yes, yes! Please follow me.

Then Xiao Yunhai guided the guests inside the Xiao Clan whole asking some questions to the other people.

Xiao Yunhai: I'm afraid I don't recognize this senior…

A man replied coldly, as if he was a corpse.

?: Xiao Moshan.

After that, Xiao Yunhai didn't speak anymore.

[Night]

Xia Qingyue: I saw the Xiao Sect's Xiao Kuangyun today.

Jean: What about him?

Xia Qingyue: He is like his name. (An: Kuangyun = Wild/Violent cloud)

Jean took another sip and held his eyes closed, his watch vibrated and he laid down his cup of tea before watching his watch without hiding anything from Xia Qingyue, who looked at him in curiosity.

She watched him press some buŧŧons while talking.
