Chapter 697

Everything Has a Weakness
Translated by Yan of Exiled Rebels Scanlations

Just when everyone was waiting for the Cang Alliance to make their stance known, You JunQi was ‘detained’ on Amaranthine Mountain by Tian Gui.

You XiaoMo personally ran outside to meet his clingy dad who had an extremely unwilling expression on his face. After he saw him, he didn’t immediately rush over and plaster himself to him like he had in the past; instead, he looked at him with a face full of hidden bitterness.

Father and son both had the same exact bitter expression.

Ling Xiao had always thought it was very mysterious. He knew that You XiaoMo was a soul from a different world, so logically speaking, the two of them weren’t really father and son. But often times, their expressions were both mysteriously similar.

Whoever dared to say that they weren’t father or son would definitely be considered crazy!

“Dad, don’t look so miserable. Things aren’t actually as serious as what you’re thinking.” You XiaoMo hugged his dad’s arm and looked at him, all smiles.

But You JunQi couldn’t be happy at all. Instead, he snorted at him and complained, “What’s not as serious as what I was thinking? My son is about to ignore me, how can I not run over immediately!”

You XiaoMo rubbed his head awkwardly.

He couldn’t do anything about it either. If he didn’t do this, his clingy dad wouldn’t have come over.

After all, the Vermillion Blood Clan was a major clan. Even though You ZhenTian was dead, the clan wouldn’t break up in a short amount of time. They still had many experts in the clan.

He had heard his clingy dad say before in the past that many of the previous generation actually supported him. Those people were the true treasures of the Vermillion Blood Clan, as some had even survived from before the ancient war and had personally witnessed the beginning and end of it.

The only thing was that those old farts ignored worldly affairs and hadn’t been involved in clan matters for many years already.

So after his clingy dad had been falsely accused and You ZhenTian monopolized the Vermillion Blood Clan’s power, they didn’t make an appearance and help out, but that didn’t mean that they didn’t want his clingy dad to return.

You XiaoMo hoped that his clingy dad would return to the Vermillion Blood Clan, implying that he needed to become the Vermillion Blood Clan’s head, but his clingy dad who had been living free for quite a while definitely wouldn’t agree. So he told Tian Dao to tell him that if he didn’t come back, he would ignore him from now on.

“Dad, don’t misunderstand. Actually, you might not necessarily have to become the family head,” You XiaoMo hurriedly explained. He didn’t want his clingy dad to go do something that he didn’t want to do either.

“What do you mean?” You JunQi looked suspiciously at his son, who had pressed his lips together into a smile, as if he was turning some clever idea over in his head. For now, he would listen to him talk a bit.

When You XiaoMo saw his expression relax a little, he immediately told him what he was thinking.

Right now, the Vermillion Blood Clan only lacked an expert who could keep everything under control. An outsider definitely wouldn’t do, since they would undoubtedly incite the backlash of the clan’s members. As a result, the most suitable one was You JunQi.

Of course, You XiaoMo would also work. After all, on the surface he was still You JunQi’s son, but he had many things to do. Lin ShaoYi’s and Ling Xiao’s grudge still hadn’t been resolved, so he and Ling Xiao would be unable to remain in South Continent one day. Therefore, the best pick was only You JunQi.
