Xiao Yunfeng

Xiao Clan Estate....

In a court yard, in the core region of the estate we can see a man, who appears to be in his early thirties calmly siting in a study. He seem to be deep in thought.

Xiao Yunfeng: " sigh , being the patriarch of a soon to be declining aristocratic family, in Glory City is not the best start for a transmigrator i guess."

Xiao Yunfeng , the patriarch of xiao family and father of xiao Ning'er, despite his position he doesn't have any real control over the family execpt ofcourse his few close subordinates whom he nurtured before becoming the patriarch.

Xiao Yunfeng knows that the culprit who will cause the decline of the family is Xiao Yi, an elder , who colluded with the sacred family to become patriarch himself.

While the Xiao patriarch was busy contemplating on how to deal with the family traitor, the door of his study was opened by a little girl around the age of five , who hoped in with eager enthusiasm.

Xiao Ning'er: "Father! what are you doing, it's time for dinner already. "

Even though the girl is 5 years old, is very pretty, she has big honey brown eyes, which sparked with intelligence, if her beauty had to be compared with people from Earth , it could simply be described as unreal. Though in cultivation world beautiful women in big familes is a norm. With spiritual energy(or soul force) in environment it's very difficult to be ugly, unless you have some illness that makes you so.

Xiao Yunfeng turned to look at his daughter (?), he still wasn't sure how he should feel about the whole thing, should he just run away from all the responsibilities he has been made to shoulder or face them with everything he has.

Xiao Yunfeng smiled at the little girl before standing up and taking her into his hands with huup, making her laugh.

Xiao Yunfeng: " is the dinner prepared already?"

Xiao Yunfeng asked with a fond smile.

Xiao Ning'er: " yes! it's already prepared! mother told me call you, to eat together."

The Xiao patriarch took his daughter in his embrace and walked towards the dining hall.

The dining hall was neither small nor big.

There , a women could be seen setting the dishes for three people, she has black long hair , with an oval face and pheonix like eye's with staight nose and full red lips. She has hourglass figure, which made her look simply enchanting.

Zi Xian heard the footsteps of her husband coming and turned to look, she smilingly told them take their seats.

Zi Xian: " dear what are you working on these days, you are always in your study, is it something important? You can always talk to me you know."

Xiao Ning'er: " I also want to help father!"

Since his transmigration Xiao Yunfeng has been thinking about what to do with his new life that he was forced into, that's why except for eating together with his family, he's been avoiding them. Even if he inherited everything of the previous Xiao Yunfeng including his memories, he couldn't come to terms with his new reality that easily.

Even though he tried to act as natural as he could, he was afraid of someone finding out that he was not the real xiao Yunfeng, he knew cultivation world is full strange and mystical abilities, as such someone finding about his secrete without him knowing about it, had him suffer from a mental breakdown, it was only thanks to his high cultivation base of Gold rank demon spiritualist that comes with high digree of mental fortitude that he can still keep his composer and talk normally.

Xiao Yunfeng looked at his wife who was looking at him with concern and his daughter who was giving him look of expectation, it made him feel guilty and shameful of thinking of leaving them alone and running away.

Xiao Yunfeng's face showed a slight change due to the inner turmoil he was suffering for quite a few days and it was not missed by zi xian.

Xiao Yunfeng gathered his thoughts and made a decision that he might regret in the future.

He looked at his wife and daughter with forced smile,

Xiao Yunfeng: " Xian'er, Ning'er, i am fine, it's just clan business is going through some trouble lately, nothing to worry about."

Zi xian frowned slightly she could see with look that he was either not telling the truth, or not the whole truth.

Just as she was about to ask him some more , he signaled her with his eyes telling her not to discuss the matter infront of thier daughter. she decided to drop the matter for the time being giving him a pointed glare.

Xiao Yunfeng seeing her like that knew that he will have to give her a good explanation. He noded his head at her ever so slightly which only she was able to precieve.

Xiao patriarch looked at his daughter still looking at him with those beautiful brown orbs of her's. He had gotten quite fond of her even if he had only spend a few days with her.

Xiao Yunfeng: " Ning'er can help father when you become 10 years old, before that father will teach you about cultivation. Do you want learn cultivation."

Xiao Yunfeng asked his daughter with a smile, who's eye's shining like a child who got their favourite candy.

Xiao Ning'er: " Yes! i want to learn cultivation!"

Xiao Yunfeng:" Okay, but you cannot practice cultivation until your are 10 years old, until then you will learn about inscriptions and alchemy."

Xiao Ning'er didn't understand most of what her father told her but she knew that he will be teaching her cultivation and that was enough for the girl her age. she happily ate her meal afterwards.

After dinner zi xian took her daughter to sleep, but along the way she also gave her husband a look , who noded with forced smile.

...At midnight Xiao Yunfeng's study....

Siting on a matt infront of low table, Xiao Yunfeng was thinking what to tell his wife, one thing he was sure of that he couldn't tell her that he was not xiao Yunfeng, that will be idiotic , because after transmigration he was xiao Yunfeng but xiao Yunfeng was not him, the real xiao Yunfeng was already assmilated and was no more.

Xiao Yunfeng was also thinking about what w happened to her in the novel as she was never mentioned, did she die of a disease or was she poisoned, he would have to stop that at any cost.

He heard footsteps coming towards his room , he knew the time to make it or break it has finally arrived, he could not delay it any longer.

He calmed the erratic beating of his heart all thanks to his cultivation which he still didn't know anything about .

Zi xian enter the room and saw her husband wating for her , she sat opposite side of the table.

Seeing his wife getting comfortable, xiao Yunfeng looked at her for a few moments, thinking from where he should start.

Zi xian: " dear, what happened? You look as if something wieghing on your mind these few days, is it really something related the clan business? "

Zi Xian was sceptical about his clams , she knew the clan business was suffering from slight setback in more than a few areas, but it wasn't to level of something the patriarch should be concerned about.

Xiao Yunfeng:" yes it is. There are somethings that you should know about the clan that I never mentioned. My father, when he was the patriarch, was quite strict in his clan ruling, which made some elders quite resentful of him , they only supported him because of he was the only Black Gold rank demon spiritualist in the family. After he went missing in an exploration outside Glory City, they wanted to take his position, but as you can see they failed in the end."

" Even though these elders want to become the patriarch, they know that in Xiao clan , in our generation, my cultivation talent is highest, that's why their attempt was bound to fail. These elders as you might already know still try to find faults in my ruling during the clan meetings."

Xiao Yunfeng stopped here and let his wife process everything he said.

Zi Xian: " You think it's thier doing?! But why would they harm the clan business , that would be beyond foolish. "

Xiao Yunfeng sighed internally , he knew giving your elders utmost respect was ingrained in childs mind since the could understand words, that it has become a norm of the world. That's why her reaction was very normal.

Xiao Yunfeng: " that's the first thing you will think about won't you, because they are the elders of the family why would they do that , what will they gain from sabotaging thier own business , if they got found out , they can forget about being able to live in the family much less becoming the patriarch. That's why I think , no , i know it , that they are colluding with an outsider to do all thier dirty work."

Zi Xian was fuming with rage and disgust after hearing her husband's words. She knew her husband had to have formed a plan already , she knew him the best afterall , since the day they first met in holy orchid institute , she knew he has a very sharp mind.

Zi Xian: " what do you want me do."

she said with a grave tone , that promised pain to those who tried to harm her family. The reason no one ever tried to use underhanded means against Xiao Yunfeng was because strongest in the family and also because of his wife , who despite being from commoner background was one the strongest Gold rank demon spiritualist in thier generation.

Xiao Yunfeng: " haha.... Xian'er don't worry i have it all planned , the main culprit who is colluding with outsiders is Xiao Yi , i will deal with him myself , as for others , if they still can't see reason , then a death will be their only ending. "

Zi Xian: " who is Xiao Yi colluding with."

she asked with a frown.

Xiao Yunfeng: " i have a guess but I am not fully sure , no worries though we will find that out from xiao Yi. "

zi Xian noded her head in acceptens.

she stood up from her position and came on husband's lap smiling coyly at him and kissed him slowly and deeply on the lips.

Zi Xian: " you have been quite stressed lately right? let me help you with that hmm."

Yunfeng just noded with a smile and held her wide and firm butt with his hands.

Both their clothes were thrown on ground while they explored each others bodies on the bed.
