When I take my cultivation to the extreme

Chapter 23 Questioning
Li Fan walked out of the cabin and came to the deck.

There are 30 people here, most of them are leaders from all walks of life on the Xujiabao Ship.

Opposite them were Xu Xinzhi and the man with the goatee. Xu Xianhua was also there, arguing fiercely.

Li Fan saw that the crowd was a little excited, and he had no idea for a while.

He glanced around and found that Xu He was also standing behind the crowd, but he was not emotional at all. He squinted his eyes and watched the conflict between people in front of him as if watching a play.

Li Fan walked over.

"What's going on?" Li Fan asked.

Seeing that it was Li Fan, Xu He laughed and said through his magic voice: "Weren't we attacked by the Xiang family yesterday? The situation was tense at the time, and no one thought clearly about it. Today, I took a nap to calm down, and many of them People talk about it.”

"Someone with a clear mind found that something was not right about this matter. The Xiang family came too suddenly and struck too harshly. There are still people who are worried about their own safety and want an explanation from the Xu family."

"On the Xu family side, the fifth elder has a very strong personality and refused to inform. Xu Xianhua, the direct grandson of the head of the Xu family, defended his side, but his attitude was arrogant and he scolded a few people. In the end, the others were not upset and choked back. , no, it’s a quarrel.”

Li Fan nodded slightly when he heard this.

Seeing Xu He looking like he was watching a play, he joked: "Aren't you a member of the Xu family too? How come you don't treat the Xu family as one of your own when you talk? You seem to like to see him."

Xu He chuckled and said: "Although my surname is Xu, I do have the blood of the Xu family, but I have already become a branch within a branch. There are thousands of children in the Xu family, and some of those direct descendants may not really regard me, Xu He, as one of their own. "

"I, Xu Heyou, relied entirely on my own efforts today, and I didn't borrow even a single cent of the Xu family's money. What can I say against the Xu family?"

"Speaking of which, in my heart I still stand closer to Brother Li and other people who have the ability to rely on their skills to make a living."

As he said that, he glanced at Xu Xianhua teasingly and said, "Look, that's the real descendant of the Xu family."

Li Fan smiled slightly.

What Xu He said is also true.

The Xu family has a foundation that spans hundreds of years. The family is big and the business is huge. There are so many children that have spread out, and some branches can no longer take care of them.

People like Xu He didn't really get much help from the Xu family when they were struggling in their early years. They only attracted the attention of the Xu family after they struggled to a certain level.

"The real cohesion of the Xu family is not very high. You can see the clues from Xu He." Li Fan thought.

He focused on the conflict ahead.

At this time, Xu Xianhua's face turned pale in front of everyone, with contempt and disgust in his narrow eyes. He stood there and said coldly: "You people are really immature. Yesterday, the Xiang family attacked. It was my family's guard and five The elders and others protected you and saved your lives."

"Xiang Xiao is bloodthirsty. If he captures the treasure ship, not many of you and others will survive."

"It's a good thing for you, you just escaped from danger yesterday, but you are here to cause trouble for my Xu family today."

"What a bunch of heartless and unjust white-eyed wolves!"

Xu Xianhua said with ridicule in his tone.

Li Fan listened to what Xu Xianhua said and shook his head slightly.

This grandson of the head of the Xu family is a bit too arrogant.

The mood of the crowd on the deck was not right now. Xu Xianhua did not try to appease them, but instead criticized and almost cursed them. This was not an attitude to deal with the problem at all, but rather added fuel to the fire.

Such arrogance can easily make people angry. "This Xu Xianhua behaves like a young master, but he lacks experience and is not humane." Li Fan thought to himself.

Sure enough, Xu Xianhua's words immediately caused the scene to explode.

"Xu Xianhua, tell me clearly, who is the white-eyed wolf?"

"I am also a respectable person in Scale City, and I am not making trouble unreasonably. I just want to know the truth. Is there anything wrong?"

"We are not the servants and maids raised by the Xu family. Why do you call me waiting like that?"

"Who are you looking down on?"

The people who came to the Xu family to ask for an explanation were very excited.

Like Li Fan, most of them are people who are at the top of a certain industry in Lin City. Most of them rely on their skills and abilities to make a living, and have a certain status in Lin City.

People who work on their own merits tend to have a sense of arrogance, and they don’t place too much importance on worldliness. After all, there is food to eat wherever you have a job, and isn’t it the same wherever you go?
In their hearts, most of these people do not regard themselves as subordinate servants of any family, but are closer to a cooperative relationship.

Xu Xianhua's cold and arrogant response completely angered them.

When Xu Xianhua saw this, he was not appeased. He just raised his chin and looked at the sky sideways with a look of disdain.

In the crowd, a man in brown robes took a step forward and stood out.

He is not tall and has ordinary appearance, but his demeanor is calm and confident, and he has a sense of style.

Li Fan knew this person.

The man in brown clothes who stood up was named Zong Jun. He was the owner of Lincheng Baodanlin. He was also the alchemist who came to the Xu family's territory because it was said that the Taoist monks were being harassed by the Xiang family.

After Zong Jun stood up, the voices of the rest of the people suddenly became quieter.

Zong Jun's level of strength is the No. 13 Dzogchen in the Qi Refining Period, and he is also the owner of Bao Dan Lin. Bao Dan Lin Pharmacy has risen rapidly in recent years because of its unique elixir recipe, and has a good reputation among the shops in Lin City. Zong Jun also has a lot of face with the Xu family.

Zong Jun was very powerful and wealthy, and was a prominent figure in all walks of life in Lin City. When he saw him speaking out, others would naturally become quiet and lower their voices.

"Fifth Elder, Mr. Xu Yang, we are not here to make trouble unreasonably, but we want an explanation."

"Xiang Xiao attacked yesterday. Everyone has seen how dangerous the situation is. As the young master of the Xu family said, his life is already in danger."

"We went to Lingchahai City with the Xu family's treasure ship. Most likely, the Xu family strongly invited us and promised to protect our safety."

"After what happened yesterday, I can't help but ask, is this trip to Lingchahai City as safe as your Xu family said? Are there any dangers that we are not aware of?"

"Will I still face such risks when I go back?"

"The Xiang family came here out of nowhere. It seems like the news was leaked. Who did these things? How can the Xu family protect our safety?"

"If we don't explain these things clearly, I'm afraid it won't be able to give us peace of mind. And I, Zongjun, ask myself, these questions are reasonable and reasonable, and we should be informed by the Xu family instead of keeping us in the dark."

"We are not slaves of the Xu family. If we don't have an explanation, we won't be able to feel at ease, let alone do good business. I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to comply with the Xu family's requirements." Zong Jun said.

Zong Jun's voice was loud, but it seemed full of energy and unusually calm.

As soon as he said his words, everyone on the deck immediately echoed him.
