Si Yufan was startled when he heard this. He put down his bowl and chopsticks and looked at the Cao family and his daughter, somewhat confused.

Cao Wenhuan looked at him, and after pondering for a long time, he sighed: "Little friend Si is really good. At such a young age, his cultivation has already reached the late Yuan Dan realm, but compared to Master Zhu Yuanzhen, he is still a little behind.

"

"The company's son will definitely not be worse than the one named Zhu!"

Cao Qiyan stood up abruptly, his pretty face turned red from holding back: "Yesterday's bandit leader was at the peak of the Yuan Dan Realm, but he was not at all the general of Master Si, and Master Si had not used all his strength at that time."

After two days of getting along, Cao Qiyan was relatively more willing to trust Si Yufan, not only because of his strength, but also because he and Zhu Yuanzhen were very different in nature.

Because Cao Qiyan has been beautiful since childhood, coupled with her wealthy family background and her extraordinary talent in cultivation, many young people in Jinyun City have fallen in love with her.

And Zhu Yuanzhen is one of her craziest suitors.

But Cao Qiyan could see that there was only desire in Zhu Yuanzhen's eyes when he looked at him, while when he looked at Si Yufan, his eyes were always as calm as water.

Cao Wenhuan stared at his daughter closely and sighed: "Father, I know what you are thinking, but just a few days ago, Mr. Zhu broke through to the Mysterious Embryo Realm.

I also admit that Si Xiaoyou is a rare talent, but after all, we are still in the Yuan Dan realm, and only Mr. Zhu can guarantee that the Cao family will win."

Cao Qiyan felt as if she was struck by lightning when she heard this. There was an insurmountable gap between the Xuantai realm and the Yuandan realm. In her heart, no matter how powerful Si Yufan was, he would not be able to defeat the guy named Zhu.

Her red lips opened and closed, and she fell back on the chair blankly, unable to speak for a long time.

Si Yufan listened to the conversation between father and daughter and thought to himself:

I am worried that there is no suitable way to investigate the Wei family. If I can fight with their juniors, I might be able to follow the clues and find out their relationship with the mysterious organization.

Thinking of this, Si Yufan stood up, bowed his hands to Cao Wenhuan and said: "If the Cao family leader can trust this junior, he can ask him to compete with Mr. Zhu. Whoever wins will help the Cao family. No matter what the result is.

, the Cao family will not suffer any loss."

"no!"

Before Cao Wenhuan could say anything, Cao Qiyan hurriedly interjected: "That man surnamed Zhu relies on his father to be the lord of the city. He does very evil things to people. Even if those who fight him can save their lives, they will end up crippled. You can't compete with him."

."

"Qiyan must not be rude. Si Xiaoyou's decision is all for the Cao family. How can we go against their good intentions?"

Cao Wenhuan smiled at Si Yufan and reassured Si Yufan: "Don't worry, little friend Si, if you really lose during the competition, as long as you say something, I will definitely keep you safe."

"Then thank you very much, Master Cao." Si Yufan said with a smile.

Cao Qiyan wanted to continue to dissuade him, but Cao Wenhuan stared at him so hard that he swallowed his words.

Si Yufan followed the father and daughter to the living room and saw that the room was full of Cao family members, talking about something with the young man in the middle.

The young man looks quite handsome, but occasionally there is a cold look between his eyebrows.

Seeing Cao Qiyan appear, the young man turned his eyes, his eyes full of fire, and then smiled at her gracefully:

"Qi Yan, you are finally back. I was talking to Uncle Cao about you just now."

"You are not welcome in the Cao family, just go back to where you came from!" Cao Qiyan originally planned to be polite to him, lest he kill Si Yufan later, but when he saw the look in his eyes, he couldn't hold it back at all.

Stop the resentment in your heart and speak out your thoughts.

"Qiyan, what are you talking about? Uncle Cao specially asked me to come here to help the Cao family participate in the competition tomorrow." The young man raised his eyebrows.

"No need!"

Cao Qiyan crossed his arms, leaned forward, and pointed his jade finger at Si Yufan behind him: "Master Si is also willing to be my foreign aid, you can leave now."

As soon as the words fell, all the Cao family members in the living room were stunned, and then looked at Zhu Yuanzhen who had suppressed his smile with a strange expression.

Si Yufan felt a headache due to the sudden silence, but before he could speak, he noticed Zhu Yuanzhen's eyes falling on him, and his handsome face changed into an expression that seemed to be a smile but not a smile.

"A little kid in the late Yuan Dan realm is also assigned to the Cao family as a foreign aid. Qi Yan, aren't you being a bit childish?"

Zhu Yuanzhen's voice spread, adding a bit of solemnity to the already silent atmosphere.

Everyone in the Cao family around him also looked at Si Yufan. Although his aura was indeed not weak, there was still a clear gap compared to Zhu Yuanzhen who had broken through to the Mysterious Embryo Realm.

Moreover, Zhu Yuanzhen has a great reputation in Jinyun City and his family background is also top-notch. However, the current Si Yufan is not only inferior in strength, but also a person that no one knows. No one is optimistic about him coming to play for the Cao family.

Cao Wenhuan coughed twice and smoothed things over with a smile: "Qiyan also wanted the Cao family to have multiple choices, so he found Si Xiaoyou. I think it's better for the two of us to compare notes and see each other."

"Master, you don't know the situation that the Cao family is facing now. How can you let Qi Yan act as he pleases? Besides, Master Zhu's strength is obvious to all, so there is no need to continue the competition!"

An old man from the Cao family slammed the table, stood up, blew his beard and said with eyes wide open.

He knew that Cao Qiyan didn't like Zhu Yuanzhen, so he thought she was just pulling in someone to make up the numbers, hoping to take Zhu Yuanzhen's place.

But this matter is related to the interests of the entire Cao family. If it fails, the Cao family will fall into a situation of eternal disaster, and there is no room for sloppiness.

"It seems that Uncle Cao is more willing to believe this kid who came out of nowhere. This matter has nothing to do with me. In this case, I will give up my position to him."

This Zhu Yuanzhen was obviously very scheming. His move of retreating instead of advancing immediately ignited the voices of opposition in the room, and the whole room became a mess.

Cao Wenhuan, who was already extremely anxious because of his son's accident, was even more at a loss.

Cao Qiyan wanted to speak out to defend Si Yufan, but he couldn't get a word in.

"Elders, Qi Yan said that this little brother can replace Brother Zhu. Why don't you give it a try first and discuss it later."

At this moment, a weak male voice came from outside the house.

Si Yufan turned around and saw a tall young man whose face was a little pale but could not hide the warmth between his brows. He walked to the center of the meeting hall and smiled kindly at Si Yufan.

Feeling that there was still some emptiness on his body, Si Yufan also smiled back, and Cao Wenhuan's voice sounded in his ears again: "Zekai, you haven't recovered yet, how can you move around?"

"Father, don't worry."

Cao Zekai waved his hand and said: "I believe in Qiyan's vision, and I even more believe that Qiyan will not make trouble unreasonably due to personal reasons. I also hope that everyone can give this little brother a chance."

Obviously, Cao Zekai had an excellent reputation in the Cao family, and he calmed down the commotion in the Cao family with just a few words.

Si Yufan took the opportunity to step forward and said slowly: "The elders of the Cao family and the younger generation Si Yufan, after hearing about the situation of the Cao family, took the initiative to propose to the head of the family and Miss Cao that it has nothing to do with them."

"It's quite courageous. You know that I have broken through to the Mysterious Embryo Realm, but you still dare to speak nonsense."

Zhu Yuanzhen raised his chin, pointed his nostrils at Si Yufan, and said calmly:

"I can give you this opportunity, but I never hold back when fighting with others. If I accidentally kill you during the competition, it's not my fault! If you are afraid, just get out and don't waste everyone's time here!"

He had long regarded Cao Qiyan as a forbidden prisoner, and when he saw him protecting Si Yufan at every turn, he longed to eat his flesh and drink his blood.

Everyone in the Cao family around him felt obvious anger from his words.

A pair of eyes fell on Si Yufan. At this time, Zhu Yuanzhen had put down his harsh words. Everyone was quite curious whether the ignorant boy in front of him would be brave or whether he would be scared to death.

Under the gaze of many eyes, Si Yufan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, walked up to Zhu Yuanzhen, looked directly into his eyes, and said lightly:

"If there is someone who wants to get out, then you might as well get out!"
