The third daughter, Su Su, had a top-grade fire spiritual root. On the day her spiritual root was detected, she was taken away by a mysterious woman and has not been heard from since.

As for the fourth daughter, Su Wanyue, she is still a ten-year-old child and has not awakened her spiritual root.

The Su family is quite special. It is not a family with a deep foundation in cultivation. Su Long is the "first generation of cultivation" of the Su family.

Therefore, the task of inheriting the Su family business fell on the four daughters.

Excluding the missing third daughter Su Su and the youngest daughter Su Wanyue, the task of inheriting the family fell on the eldest daughter Su Yun and the second daughter Su Zhiyuan.

In addition, Su Yun has already become a disciple of Qian Palace, and Lin Gen also has a double spiritual root of the top grade, so the final heir fell on the less outstanding Su Zhiyuan.

In order to prevent the family affairs from disturbing Su Zhiyuan's cultivation, Su Long planned to recruit a son-in-law for her to help him manage the Su family.

As luck would have it, Bai He, the head of the Bai family, was looking for a backer for the decline of the Bai family. The two of them hit it off immediately and happily decided on this marriage.

So, Bai Xiao and Su Zhiyuan became husband and wife in a muddle, which made Su Zhiyuan very resistant, but she couldn't stand her father, so she had to accept it with a pinch of her nose.

Therefore, although she didn't say bad things to Bai Xiao, her dislike for him was known to everyone in the Su family. What kind of status does a son-in-law have? This is also the reason why Bai Xiao's residence is so simple.

Although the two have been married for half a year, they are only slightly better than strangers. I don't know why the other party called the maid to come to him at this time.

Just for a while, Bai Xiao felt that his cultivation had recovered to the peak of foundation building, and his heart was slightly relieved.

When Bai Xiao walked out of the room, he found that this was a yard full of weeds. Some weeds had even grown to knee height. It was obvious that no one had taken care of it for a long time.

Low EQ, the courtyard is very remote; high EQ, winding paths lead to secluded places.

Outside, the maid Chunchun was wearing a green dress, with a pretty face and graceful figure, just at the age of a young girl.

"Son-in-law, you finally came out, the young lady is waiting for you in the hall!" Chunchun's eyes lit up when she saw Bai Xiao, but she soon pouted and talked.

Son-in-law is really good-looking, but it's a pity that the young lady doesn't like him.

"Chunchun, do you know why your young lady is looking for me?" Bai Xiao asked the other party so that he could have a rough idea.

In his memory, Chunchun was one of the few people in the Su family who did not despise him, so Bai Xiao had a good relationship with her.

"I don't know!" Chunchun shook her head, and suddenly thought of something, and said quickly, "But the young lady just came back from Mount Xumi this time, and there was a man who came back with her. The young lady called him senior brother."

Mount Xumi? Senior brother?

Bai Xiao automatically recalled the memory of Mount Xumi in his mind.

Xumi Mountain is a large cultivation power nearby, with countless disciples, which is not much inferior to Qian Palace.

It is said that the master of Xumi Mountain is very powerful, and he is the most powerful existence in the entire southern cultivation world!

"Oh, what exactly, you will know when you arrive!" Chunchun scratched her head and continued to add with a not very smart look.

Seeing this, Bai Xiao laughed dumbly. What an interesting maid. He smiled and said, "Then let's go, don't let your young lady wait anxiously."

It was the first time that Chunchun saw her own young master actually laughed. She was stunned for a moment, and it took a while to recover. She couldn't help blushing and her voice became hesitant.

"Ah? OK, OK..."

But when she heard Bai Xiao's address to Su Zhiyuan, Chunchun still emphasized: "Young master, you should call the young lady "wife."

"Lead the way!" Hearing this, Bai Xiao glared at Chunchun unhappily.

Seeing this, Chunchun shrank her neck, laughed, and then walked briskly in front, chattering all the way, talking non-stop, a real chatterbox.

Perhaps because she felt that today's son-in-law was different from before, becoming more easy-going and full of energy, Chunchun became more talkative.

The Su family occupies a large area. After walking through many corridors for about ten minutes, they finally arrived at the hall mentioned by Chunchun.

When the two of them arrived, Bai Xiao found that there were already four people sitting inside.

Sitting in the most important seat was a man and a woman, both of whom looked middle-aged. Through memory, Bai Xiao knew that they were Su Long, the head of the Su family, and his Taoist partner Yu Yan, who were also his current father-in-law and mother-in-law.

Sitting on the right side of the main seat was a single-tailed girl, about 28 years old, with a beautiful figure and a cold expression. She was his nominal wife Su Zhiyuan.

Sitting on the left was a man in a precious white robe, drinking a cup of spiritual tea., a young man who is not as good-looking as him.

The young man had a proud look on his face, especially when he saw Bai Xiao coming in, the contempt and a hint of jealousy flashed in his eyes.

The sun shone on the boy's cheeks, making him shine. I don't know if it was an illusion, Su Zhiyuan felt that Bai Xiao had changed today!

Not only Su Zhiyuan, but even Su Long and Yu Yan, who were sitting in the main seat, had this feeling.

Su Long and his wife had a tacit understanding, looked at each other, and saw the hesitation and solemnity in each other's eyes.

But now the arrow is on the string and has to be shot.

Su Long rarely squeezed out a smile on his face, greeted Bai Xiao enthusiastically, pointed to a seat for him, and said: "Bai Xiao is here, sit down first!"

Hearing this, Bai Xiao walked to the position pointed by the other party and sat down with a calm face, which was very different from the timidity in the past, as if he had become a different person.

This scene fell into the eyes of Su Long and his wife, making their faces even more forced, and they always felt that today's matter was too hasty.

The changes in their expressions naturally did not escape Bai Xiao's consciousness. A hint of playfulness flashed in his mind, and he took the initiative to ask, "I don't know why the head of the Su family and the second lady called me here? If it's nothing serious, I'll go back!"

"How dare you! Bai Xiao, how do you talk to your father? Can't I call you if there's nothing wrong? Who do you think you are? Are you still the young master of your Bai family?"

As soon as Bai Xiao finished speaking, Su Zhiyuan's pretty face became even colder, and she couldn't help but slam the table and scold.

Seeing Su Zhiyuan's actions, Su Long and his wife secretly sighed that it was bad, but before the two of them could speak to ease the situation, Bai Xiao had already spoken before them.

"Oh! I wonder how the Second Miss needs me to speak? Should I kneel down like a dog or slap myself while speaking?"

"You, you are so insolent!"

Hearing this, Su Zhiyuan's cold face turned red with anger, and her breath was a little disordered. She pointed her finger at the expressionless, nominal husband. While she was angry, she also flashed a burst of inexplicable panic.

She wanted to open her mouth to scold, but when she met the other party's calm eyes, all her words became insolent.
