903 Negotiations

Plus, they were all in the valley. They couldn’t just get out, much less look for anyone. The Formation Masters weren’t just someone to be trifled with.

The only thing they could do now was to call for him.

As if he had thought things through, Cheng Yan immediately took out his phone and glanced over at his contact list.

The most important thing was to wake her up.

Just then a knock came from the door.

Everyone fell silent.

Soon, an elderly voice came from the other side.

“I’m the head of the Xiao Family,” he called out. “I heard that my child is in the room, and I was wondering if you could let me in to discuss?”

While his voice sounded old and ancient, one could tell the power behind his words.

Right behind the door stood the head of the Xiao and Yu Families, with each of them having a young disciple trailing behind them. Their faces were impassive, and their eyes were bright.

They didn’t seem to have any ill intentions, except to get their most outstanding disciple back.

The last thing they wanted was for her to be killed or for her martial arts to be crippled.

Everyone knew about the urgency.

They also knew that the only reason that they were here was due to Yu Chen. If this matter wasn’t handled well, then there would likely be a fallback of consequences that they wouldn’t know how to face.

They must come over.

“Xiao Bing didn’t even look at the gate before letting these people in! The Xiao Family must take full responsibility for this matter!”

The head of the Yu Family muttered under his breath.

As one of the best disciples of the Yu Family, he believed that Yu Chen had a better future ahead of him. Now that he had also been kidnapped by this group of people, he knew he had to work immediately.

His white hair glistened silver under the pale light as he looked up at the man beside him.

“Impossible.”

The Head of the Xiao Family snorted, shooting him a glare. “Everyone knows how capable my daughter is. The only reason that they’re here in the first place is that boy Yu Chen! I’ve always known he’d be troublesome.”

Both of them weren’t willing to let their child suffer the blame.

While the truth had been unclear, they knew just how important this situation was.

Right now, they had to work together.

After all, both their children were involved in this.

Once they were saved, they could investigate in the truth of this matter.

The Head of the Xiao Family pursed his lips.

When he had heard that his own child was held hostage, he also knew that the group of people also requested a room. That was where they were now.

That room was located in the East District.

What they didn’t know was that the Xiao Family had set a formation, trapping anyone inside the room.

If they could trap them, he believed that there is a high possibility that Xiao Bing could be saved.

To their surprise, however, nothing happened. The group even sent for a doctor to treat them, and the room had not been silent—filled by their mutters and mumbles.

More than an hour had passed, and he couldn’t hold himself back any longer.

The Xiao Family was already out of options, that’s why he had brought the Yu Family patriarch over.

Only by bringing them over would they be able to negotiate.

They couldn’t just let them be.

After all, their disciple was also in there.

However, their relationship had always been rocky from the start.

The Yu Family believed them to be too old-fashioned.

While the Xiao Family believed them to be too lazy and laidback.
