Chapter 21: Contract of Sale

"I'm dreaming that I want to apologize to a slave. Is it possible?"

Xia Nan said forcefully.

Xiang Chen showed a cold smile and said: "You are really a bitch. Do you want me to remove your legs and let you crawl back? Let the Xia family take a good look at you crawling and walking. .”

"you……"

Xia Nan's face changed in shock when he heard this. If this was really the case, then he would be very embarrassed.

"Okay, I apologize to her. Xiang Chen, I think you can be arrogant for a few days. Your third uncle is just a door-to-door son-in-law. Don't think he can protect you."

Xia Nan threatened, looked at Man He, bowed to Man He as an apology, and then ran away with his arms drooped.

"If you are a man, just seek revenge from me in the future. Don't target a woman."

Xiang Chen said indifferently to Xia Nan's figure.

"Master, thank you." Man He said gratefully to Xiang Chen. Xiang Chen's words just now touched her greatly.

Can a small person also have his own dignity?

"You're welcome." Xiang Chen smiled gently, no longer as harsh and cold as before.

"Gululu..."

And this time, Xiang Chen's stomach growled again.

Xiang Chen smiled bitterly and said, "It seems that I have to trouble Man He to get some more food."

"Okay, young master, wait." Man He smiled and went to the kitchen to get food again.

Naturally, the kitchen of such a large family will not be short of food, especially for martial arts cultivators in the physical realm, food is extremely important.

Xia family, in the lobby.

A group of people sat in two rows. A middle-aged man sat in the main seat at the top of the hall. This middle-aged man was dressed in a luxurious blue robe and had a mustache. He looked about fifty years old, with a dignified demeanor and sparkling eyes. .

On both sides, there were also some high-ranking people from the Xia family sitting.

The middle-aged and elderly man was Xia Fenghu, the eldest elder of the Xia family.

In the center of the lobby, stood a man in black robes in his thirties.

Xiang Heng is Xiang Chen's third uncle and the son-in-law of Zeng Xia's family.

"Xiang Heng, who asked you to bring Xiang Chen to the Xia family privately? Do you know what you are doing?"

Xia Chengleng, an elder of the Xia family, shouted.

"Yes, this kid's identity is very sensitive now. I heard that he poisoned his eldest brother and was kicked out of the Xiang family. Princess Lin wants to kill him. If you bring him to the Xia family, don't you know that it will affect the relationship between our two families? ?"

Another elder also said coldly.

Xia Fenghu looked at Xiang Heng and said coldly: "Xiang Heng, I know he is your nephew, but you did this without considering it."

Xiang Heng stood tall and straight and said: "I watched my nephew grow up. I don't know his character. It is absolutely impossible for him to poison his eldest brother. It's obvious. That was all what Princess Lin did to Xiang Chen for her own son. A trap. The purpose is to let her son gain sole power in the Xiang family in the future."

"This is not the key. You just need to know that Xiang Chen is now the target of public criticism of the Xiang family. If you send him back to the Xiang family, our Xia family cannot tolerate him."

Xia Fenghu said indifferently.

He didn't want to offend Princess Lin because of a loser with no future.

"That's right, let him get out of the Xia family!" Other elders also said.

"This son cannot stay in the Xia family. In a few days, Prince Xiang's Mansion will find out that Xiang Chen is with us."

The elders were almost unanimous in their opposition to Xiang Chen staying in the Xia family.

"Sending him back is a dead end. Moreover, he is my nephew. I, Xiang Heng, can't do anything to send my nephew into the tiger's mouth. I, Xiang Heng, have been in the Xia family for eight years. I have established a good foundation for your Xia family. You know how many military exploits there are, but there is still no room for a young man?"

Xiang Heng looked at the Xia family present and said coldly.

After all, he was just a son-in-law, and no one in the Xia family could speak for him.

"Our Xia family didn't treat you badly." Xia Cheng sneered.

"Xiang Heng, I know that you value friendship, but this is not your problem. This guy has too many connections and is really not suitable to stay in the Xia family."

Xia Fenghu persuaded him nicely.

"It's really hard to judge the human heart."

Xiang Heng laughed sarcastically: "When my eldest brother was not in trouble, did you all still behave like this?"

He looked at the people present and said, "Don't forget, Xiang Chen and Qingcheng are still engaged."

"The engagement, hey, do you think he is still worthy of Qingcheng now?" an elder from Xia family said sarcastically.

"That's right, Qingcheng has become the direct disciple of Dean Huangzhou. He has a bright future and will marry a prince-level person. How can he marry this loser?" Xia Cheng sneered.

"Xia Cheng, you'd better be polite when you speak. Who are you calling a waste?"

Xiang Heng shouted angrily, and a powerful energy field surged out, pressing towards Xia Cheng.

"Isn't he?" Xia Cheng looked ugly, stood up and said, although his cultivation level is not as good as Xiang Heng's, he cannot lose his aura.

"Everyone in the entire Shang Kingdom doesn't know that Xiang Chen is a loser who can't practice. It would be fine if he had the talent of his elder brother. King Xiang was once a hero. It's sad to have such a loser."

The other elders also sneered.

"You are determined not to tolerate Xiang Chen, right?" Xiang Heng said coldly.

No one present said anything, and their attitude was self-evident.

"Very good, no, Xia He and I will divorce. I, Xiang Heng, will withdraw from the Xia family, and I will take Xiang Chen away."

Xiang Heng said hard.

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of many people present changed slightly.

If Xiang Heng quits the Xia family, it will be a big loss for the Xia family.

"Xiang Heng, calm down." Xia Fenghu said, "It's not that the Xia family cannot tolerate Xiang Chen, but if we accept him, we will inevitably endanger Princess Lin, which is a great disadvantage to the family."

"Haha, you only have interests in your eyes. Tell me what conditions would allow Xiang Chen to stay in the Xia family." Xiang Heng sneered.

"It's okay to let him stay in the Xia family, but you have to sign a life-and-death contract. From now on, you must completely break away from the Xiang family, never betray the Xia family, and work for the Xia family for the rest of your life."

Xia Fenghu said lightly.

There was an extra contract in his hand, and Xiang Heng's expression changed. This meant that he would be a slave of the Xia family for life. To put it harshly, this was a contract of selling himself.

Xiang Heng said coldly: "Are you going to do things so absolutely?"

"Without the protection of the Xia family, you alone, even if you take Xiang Chen away from the Xia family, you will face endless pursuit by Princess Lin in the future." Xia Fenghu said lightly, already convinced of Xiang Heng's attitude.

"Besides, can you really let Xia He and your own daughter leave the Xia family?"

Xiang Heng's face was gloomy. At this moment, he seemed to suddenly understand that this meeting was not only against Xiang Chen, but also against him.

However, his concern for life was tightly controlled by the other party.

"Okay, I'll sign!" Xiang Heng took a deep breath and said decisively: "However, the Xia family must also promise me to protect him in the Xia family!"

Xiang Heng closed his eyes, thinking deeply: "Chen'er, you don't need to know all this. I just hope that you will be safe in this life. Big brother, my third brother is worthy of your trust..."
