There are over a billion transmigrators in Battle Through the Heavens.

After the main body left, the shadow clone Xiao Yan woke Xun'er from her unconsciousness.

"Brother Xiao... Xiao Yan, what's wrong with me?"

Awakening from her coma, Xiao Xun'er looked slightly bewildered and blinked her beautiful eyes as she asked a question.

"You just suddenly fainted for some reason."

"Luckily, it's nothing serious. Are you feeling unwell? Should we go back first?"

Xiao Yan asked with a hint of worry on his face.

"Xun'er is fine. It's rare that Brother Xiao Yan has time to accompany Xun'er out, so I don't want to go back so soon."

Xun'er gently shook her head, a smile appearing on her somewhat pale face as she spoke.

"Xun'er, don't force yourself. From now on, your brother Xiao Yan will stay with you every day. If you're not feeling well, it's okay for us to go back first."

Xiao Yan spoke again.

At the same time, he also mentally complained about the Medicine Emperor.

The old man doesn't hold back when he hits someone; judging from Xun'er's current condition, she'll probably need to rest for a few days.

"Brother Xiao Yan, will you really spend every day with Xun'er?"

Xiao Xun'er's beautiful eyes lit up, and she looked at Xiao Yan with some disbelief and asked.

"Of course!"

When has Brother Xiao Yan ever lied to you?

If it were the Xiao Yan of the past, he wouldn't dare to make any promises, but now that he has learned the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique...

Don't even mention just one Xun'er; even if there were dozens or hundreds more, I could easily handle them all.

In Xiao Yan's view, this so-called multiple shadow clone was created specifically for the Sea King.

"Then I'll listen to Brother Xiao Yan, let's go back!"

Having received Xiao Yan's promise, Xiao Xun'er's pretty face revealed an undisguised joy.

Afterwards, he returned to the Xiao family with Xiao Yan.

……

The Xiao family's reception hall.

“Nephew Jialie, your Jialie family is doing well in Wutan City, why do you suddenly want to move away?”

Xiao Zhan looked at Galeo with great confusion and asked.

The three elders standing to the side were also somewhat puzzled, wondering what had gotten into the Jialie family.

"Hehe, I don't know about that, little nephew."

"However, my father instructed me to handle the market of the Jia Lie family, and I thought of the friendship between our two families, so I came to find Uncle Xiao."

Galeo smiled. He had come here to sell the market he controlled to the Xiao family.

After all, you can't take the market with you; some of it was mortgaged to the Mittel Auction House during the previous auction.

He has some left, and he plans to sell them to the Xiao family to improve his chances of gaining their favor.

This way, Xiao Yan won't be hostile towards him in the early stages, giving him more time to develop.

“Since Brother Jialie is so kind, my Xiao family will naturally not refuse. However, my Xiao family cannot raise that many gold coins in a short time.”

"Nephew, could you grant us some time?"

Xiao Zhan exchanged a glance with the three elders, and then spoke.

"Of course, no problem."

"I have complete faith in Uncle Xiao's reputation."

"Moreover, Brother Lin is also in the Xiao family. Why not ask Brother Lin to come out and be a witness? In that case, my Jialie family can hand over the market to the Xiao family first."

"Once the Xiao family's funds are replenished, they will pay me the Jialie family's gold coins."

As Galeo spoke, a glint of shrewdness flashed in his eyes.

He wanted to see if Lin Dong could get out.

If Lin Dongneng appears in front of me, it means that my inability to hear his and Xiao Yan's thoughts is just a coincidence.

If they can't get out, then the two of them are very likely the same person.

That's why I can't hear what they're thinking.

"Nephew, your timing is unfortunate. Lord Lin Dong has just gone into seclusion, and he specifically instructed that unless he comes out on his own, you should not disturb him."

Upon hearing his words, Xiao Zhan shook his head helplessly and said...

"Seclusion?"

"How could such a coincidence happen?"

Galeo sneered inwardly, becoming even more certain of his guess.

“Uncle Xiao, I have something important to discuss with Brother Lin. Why don’t you tell me where he is in seclusion, and I will go to him myself?”

"If he really gets angry, I, your nephew, will take full responsibility."

With that thought in mind, Galeo spoke again.

"no!"

"I have promised Lord Lin Dong that I will absolutely not let anyone disturb him."

"Nephew, you should wait until Lord Lin Dong comes out of seclusion before you come to see him!"

Xiao Zhan pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said.

Seeing this, Galeo eavesdropped on Xiao Zhan's inner thoughts.

I cannot disobey Lord Lin Dong's orders because of Galeo.

[As long as we can gain Lord Lin Dong's favor, even if we have to give up the family's markets, my Xiao family will still make a profit.]

Xiao Zhan thought to himself that his refusal would likely displease Galeo.

This caused the Xiao family's plan to take over the Jia Lie family's market to fall through.

However, after weighing the importance of the marketplace and Lin Dong, Xiao Zhan decisively chose the latter.

"..." Galeo.

It seems I have little chance of confirming this.

However, just as he finished thinking this, Lin Dong, who was actually Xiao Yan in disguise, suddenly arrived here.

"Clan Chief Xiao, there's something I forgot to tell you."

"That girl named Xiao Mei from yesterday has quite a bit of talent. I'm planning to take her on as my 'inner disciple'!"

What do you think?

As soon as he entered, Xiao Yan made up an excuse.

His main reason for coming here was actually for Galeo, not to make Xiao Mei his 'disciple'.

"Lin Dong?"

"He's still here?"

When Galeo saw Xiao Yan at that moment, his pupils contracted instantly.

Then, I tried to eavesdrop on your thoughts again, but I still failed.

This confirmed Galeo's identity.

You can't go wrong!

This person is Lin Dong!

"This... Lord Lin Dong is willing to accept Xiao Mei as his disciple, which is naturally an honor for her!"

While Xiao Zhan was shocked, he quickly stood up and said.

At the same time, he also felt a little regretful.

If only this opportunity could fall into Yan'er's lap!

"Could it be that they are not the same person?"

"Or is it that Xiao Yan even lied to his father?"

At that moment, Galeo happened to hear Xiao Zhan's thoughts again.

After all, in the original storyline, Xiao Yan had lied to his father before.

"Well, since Clan Chief Xiao has no objections, let's settle this matter then!"

"When I leave, I will take Xiao Mei with me."

After Xiao Yan finished speaking, he prepared to leave.

However, just as he turned around, Galeo called out to him.

"Brother Lin, wait a moment!"

After calling out to Xiao Yan, Galeo got up and walked towards him.

"Isn't this Brother Jia Lie?"

How did you end up here?

Xiao Yan turned around and glanced at Jia Lie'ao, pretending to be somewhat surprised.

"Hehe, I'm here to discuss business with Chief Xiao."

"Since you're out now, Brother Lin, why don't you be our witness?"
