Chapter 1175: The Stone Stomach Demon
and let out a sinister laugh. Following the path the green centipede had crawled over, he pursued it relentlessly.At this time, Lu Xiaottian and Chiyun Sang, along with Tieshishe, were moving at a spe...“Yu Mei!” Xiao Yang exclaimed, wanting to grab Hou Xiyu, but seeing Lu Xiaottian’s sweeping gaze, his heart skipped a beat. He stopped halfway, retracting his hand. Even his father was suppressed by the other party, the head of the Xiao family was scared, he was just a Jindan cultivator, not enough for the other party to slap him away with one palm.
"A daughter will eventually marry and once she's married, she's gone. She belongs to another family. If I lose my strength and power, then there's no way for me to turn things around." Seeing Hou Xiyu being choked by Lu Xiaoteng, Hou Lie didn't even bat an eyelid. He didn't say it explicitly, but in his silent transmission to Lu Xiaoteng, there was no emotion whatsoever.
"It seems my methods were applied in the wrong place. Don't beat around the bush. Hand over Xiang Hua and Xiao Qiao together, and I will give you this healing elixir now. If not, then I'll assume you have some backup plan. I'll just take you with me to find them both, it's just a matter of time. "

Lu Xia Tian looked at Hou Lie again, discovering that he had underestimated this person's ruthlessness. Even a tiger wouldn't eat its own offspring; this man didn't even care about Hou Xi Yu. Wanting to force him to bow his head would probably not be easy. If a Nine-Turn Returning Infant Pill could solve the problem, Lu Xia Tian wouldn't want to make things too troublesome.
"Very well, Young Master Xiang and my son are close friends. They can go together to a famous tavern in Xiang City for a drink. As for Yu Xiaoqiao, she is currently at the mansion. I'll have someone bring her over." Hou Lie declared loudly. With things having come to this point, Hou Lie was unwilling to admit that he had imprisoned Xiang Hua. Now that he was on the losing end, he wouldn't give any incriminating evidence. Yu Xiaoqiao was a person of little status; even if she stayed at the mansion for several days, it wouldn't be possible to investigate anything substantial about her."

"Hou lao di, you have to think this through carefully." Mo Zhanqing said with a serious expression.
“If Brother Mo has a better way, it is also possible to stop Mr. Dong now.” Hou Lie took a breath and said, “Otherwise, I can only try my best to protect myself.”
Although he and Mo Zhanqing were close friends, when it came down to it, no one could help him take the blame. Lu Xiaotien forced him to hand over someone, what else could he do
"Well, well, it seems I've made a wasted trip then." Mo Zhanqing dusted himself off and looked at Lu Xiaitian with a cold smile. "Overconfidence leads to ruin. While you do possess some skill, let's see how you handle the coming challenges."
Having said that, Mo went away with a flick of his sleeve.
Hou Lie's face darkened, but he sighed again. A strange sound came from his stomach. If someone didn't know any better, they would think Hou Lie had a stiff neck. However, Lu Xiaoteng and Xiang Yihang both wore strange expressions.
“Abdominal Stone Language!” Lu Xiaoteng was astonished in his heart. This was an extremely ancient and rare language. It was said to be able to communicate with the demonic beasts of the Abdominal Stone Clan. Although these demonic beasts had low intelligence and weak combat power, their ability to conceal their whereabouts was unmatched, even for great cultivators who would likely find it impossible to detect them.
Lu Xiaoteng had only seen the Abdominal Stone Clan in a miscellaneous record of the cultivation world before, but he had never actually witnessed them. Just as he was puzzled, a creature that looked like a bald mountain monster with four limbs and a yellowish-brown color emerged from the ground out of thin air. Aside from its peculiar appearance, this creature wasn't particularly remarkable in other aspects.
Lu Xia Tian looked puzzled, just as the Fúshí Yāo (Belly Stone Demon) opened its mouth and spat out a burst of yellow light. Within the light, Yu Xiao Qiao appeared with a dazed expression.Yu Xiao Qiao only felt like she had just woken up from a very long dream. Uninfluenced by the Fúshí Yāo's demonic energy, she quickly regained consciousness, opening her eyes and shouting loudly, "You treacherous old Hou! You hid your wicked intentions! If my Uncle Hu knows about this, he won't let you off!"
As soon as the words left her mouth, Yu Xiaoqiao realized that something was amiss. The Zhenyuan General's Mansion at this moment resembled a disaster site, with utter chaos everywhere. As for Hou Lie, he looked even more disheveled than before. There was not an ounce of dignity one would expect from a Yuan Ying cultivator.
“County Princess, Uncle Huzi.” Upon seeing Lu Xia Tian and Yu Ya, Yu Xiao Qiao finally understood. She glared playfully at Hou Lie, “I told you, if my Uncle Huzi knew there was someone as pretty as you, you wouldn't believe me. Now you know how it is, right”

Yu Xiaoqiao didn't feel like she had just experienced a dangerous situation. Seeing Lu Xiaoteng again brought her immense peace of mind. With a slight movement of her magic power, she flew towards Lu Xiaoteng. She secretly examined Lu Xiaoteng from head to toe, thinking to herself that Uncle Huzi still looked the same, and that it was somehow more reassuring to see him like this.
"By the way, where did Xiang Hua go" Yu Xiaqiao flew to Lu Xiaottian's side and suddenly realized that she hadn't seen Xiang Hua.
"Here they come." Lu Xia Tian mumbled. Two maids from afar were carrying a seemingly somewhat weak Xiang Hua towards them, flying through the air.
"Master! Mother!" Xiang Hua saw Lu Xiaotian and Yu Ya, finally letting out a long sigh.
"Could something have been taken by Hou Lie" Lu Xia Tian asked.
“They did want to find something from their disciple, but they didn't know that it wasn't on me. Instead, they brought the master over, which is like trying to steal a chicken and losing a bowl of rice.” Xiang Hua looked at Hou Lie’s miserable state, feeling a great sense of pleasure in his heart. He thought to himself that his master was too fierce. Not only did he take down Hou Lie, Xiao Jingfeng from the Xiao family, even the appearance of the royal forbidden army didn't make him want to intervene.”
“Is that so Then let’s go back.” Lu Xia Tian reached out and pulled Xiang Hua back to his side. He pointed his finger, and a pill bottle flew towards Hou Lie. “Take this pill, and your injuries will recover.”
"Meng Xiao brother, wait for me to deal with the younger generation's affairs, and we'll meet again."
After finishing his words, Lu Xia Tian took Xiang Hua Yu and Xiao Qiao away. Yu Ya glanced at the dilapidated Zhenyuan General's Mansion and secretly felt sorry for Hou Lie. What kind of person shouldn't be provoked, but he had to provoke his master. One Mo Changqing was far from enough compared to his master, but that Xiao Jing Lei was quite troublesome. However, when the sky falls, there is a tall man on top. His master acted like this, and it was likely that he had some reliance. Even someone like the head of Mangxiao Clan called him brother. What was she worrying about
“Master Hu, you arrived just in time! That Hou Lie actually caught me and my senior brother. He deserves to be beaten up by you!” Fish Xia Qiao chattered nonstop beside Lu Xia Tian along the way.
Xiang Hua stood quietly on the side, occasionally glancing at Lu Xiaitian with a troubled expression. He didn't dare to be as talkative as Yu Xiaoqiao in front of their master.

"Starting tomorrow, the two of you are not allowed to run around anymore. You've had enough experience, go to your uncle master and cultivate diligently. Xiang Hua, you're not allowed to leave until you reach the Golden Core stage. As for Xiao Qiao, build your foundation in the middle stage," Lu Xiaoteng said.
“Yes, Master,” Xiang Hua respectfully bowed his head.
"Master Uncle is good, but without Uncle Huzi's skills, it wouldn't be the same. Why doesn't Uncle Huzi bring us along" Yu Xiaoqiao pouted.
