บท 1148: Meeting Xiao Sheng

At the Xiao clan's manor in Emperor Xia's Realm.

Xiao Sheng was training in silence. Someone came, and Xiao Sheng opened his eyes. It turned out to be his father, Xiao Qianhe.

Xiao Qianhe looked at his son, whom he had once placed high hopes in. He had hoped that one day, Xiao Sheng would be able to be in charge of the Xiao clan.

As such, Xiao Qianhe did everything he could to lay out the path for his son, hoping that Xiao Sheng would enter the royal palace and be put at Xia Qingyuan's side to serve her, thus getting as close as possible to the center of political power.

However, everything changed when Ye Futian came into the picture. Xiao Sheng did something stupid during the Battle of the Empty Realm. The matter would have been settled if Ye Futian had died, yet none from Emperor Li's Realm proved capable of killing Ye Futian, and that failure came with the cost of having Xiao Sheng's future cut right off.
