"When will the power competition take place?" Nangong Xi looked at them curiously.

"The day after tomorrow." Huo Congzhi said and looked at Nangong Xi.

"So soon? Well, then it's okay for me to go to Wanwan." Nangong Xi agreed after seeing the expectant eyes of Huo Congzhi and Yan You.

"Uncle Huo, I'm not from the Dark Temple. Can I participate in the competition?" Nangong Xi thought of an important question.

I seemed to have heard Yan You say that this competition of forces depends entirely on the strength of one's own forces and no external assistance can be sought.

"Who said you are not from my Dark Temple? You are the niece of the temple master. Here, this is the token of the young master of the Dark Temple. Keep it." Upon hearing this, Huo Congzhi handed her a black token.

"Uncle Huo, just give me an ordinary disciple token." Nangong Xi felt a little embarrassed when he saw this.

"Xier, your uncle Huo has never married in his life, so you are like my daughter. This young master's token can only be kept by you." Huo Congzhi stuffed the token into Nangong Xi's hand.

"Then leave it with me first. If the Dark Temple leaves and the young master chooses me, I will return it to him." Nangong Xi said and put the token away.

Seeing Nangong Xi put away the young master's token, a smile flashed across Huo Congzhi's eyes.

Xier, it's easy to receive this token but difficult to return it.

"Xi'er, you don't need to feel too much pressure leading the team to participate in the competition. You can just treat it as a trip for experience." Yan You looked at Nangong Xi with a smile.

"Okay." Nangong Xi nodded happily when he heard that.

I am happiest when I can mess things up.

"By the way, who is leading the other team?" Nangong Xi looked at Huo Congzhi curiously.

"It's my nephew Huo Lan." Huo Congzhi said with a smile.

"Your nephew? Why have I never seen him?" Nangong Xi really didn't expect that Huo Congzhi had a nephew.

He hasn't shown up during the days I've been in the Dark Temple.

"Huo Lan is still in seclusion. He will be out tomorrow. You can get to know him then." Huo Congzhi said with a smile.

"Uncle Huo, since you have a nephew, why don't you give him the young master token?" Nangong Xi felt very strange. After all, seeing Huo Congzhi smiling when he talked about Huo Lan, she knew that they had a good relationship.

"I gave it to him, but he refused to accept it." When it comes to this, Huo Congzhi's face is filled with black lines.

"Why not accept it?" Nangong Xi became even more curious about Huo Lan. Could it be that he was the same as himself, a person who only gave up?

"Puchi..." Yan You laughed out loud when he heard Nangong Xi's question.

"Uncle Yan, what are you laughing at?" Hearing Yan You's laughter, Nangong Xi became even more confused.

"Xier, do you know why Huo Lan is unwilling to accept the young master's token?" Yan You was trying hard to hold back his laughter.

"I'm asking because you don't know." Nangong Xi frowned.

"He wants to force your Uncle Huo to get married." Yan You suppressed his smile and explained the reason.

"Forcing Uncle Huo to get married?" Upon hearing this, Nangong Xi felt that Huo Lan was probably a funny guy.

"That's right, Huo Lan said that he wanted him to give birth to a young master himself." Yan You laughed after saying this.

"Uncle Huo, you are in such a hurry to give me the young master's token, isn't it just to avoid Huo Lan urging you to get married after he comes out of isolation?" Nangong Xi frowned.

"That's right, he's just afraid that I'll urge him to get married." Just as he finished speaking, a handsome young man in white walked in.

Nangong Xi looked at him curiously. Is this the Huo Lan who Huo Congzhi and Yan You mentioned was always urging him to get married?

"As soon as I came out of seclusion today, rumors about you were everywhere." Huo Lan looked at Nangong Xi with a smile.

"What rumor?" Nangong Xi felt that there was nothing good to be spread about him.

"They said you have ruined the entire Dark Temple." Huo Lan said and looked at Nangong Xi with a smile.

Nangong Xi: ...

It’s unfair, such an injustice!

It was obviously the Second Elder and his men who brought discredit upon the Dark Temple, so why did he say it was him?

"I think you are wrong. You have been misled." Nangong Xi looked at Huo Lan.

Huo Lan read the message from Nangong Xi's eyes that you are really easy to deceive and really stupid.

Huo Lan: ...

The rumors were indeed true, my uncle's niece was indeed eccentric.

"Am I wrong?" Huo Lan looked at Nangong Xi with confusion.

"Yes, everyone says that rumors are not credible, so why did you believe them?" Nangong Xi looked at Huo Lan.

Huo Congzhi and Yan You, who were standing by, watched the show.

This is the first confrontation between the cunning little fox and the big bad wolf. Who will win?

"What else?" Huo Lan looked at Nangong Xi.

"In fact, it was the Second Elder and his men who stink up the entire Dark Temple, not me. I was kind enough to make antidote for everyone." Nangong Xi looked helpless.

"Okay, I believe you." Huo Lan said and sat down next to him, then cast a look of contempt at Huo Congzhi.

"Why are you looking at me in a weird way as soon as you come out of confinement?" Seeing Huo Lan's gaze, Huo Congzhi rolled his eyes at him.

"Uncle, I've been in seclusion for two years, and you haven't gotten married yet?" Huo Lan said with contempt.

"You little brat, you have no respect for your elders." Huo Congzhi glared at Huo Lan.

"Besides, I have already found a candidate for the young master." Huo Congzhi continued.

"Uncle Huo, I'm just keeping the young master's token for you temporarily. You still have to give birth to the young master yourself." Nangong Xi spoke quickly after hearing this.

Huo Congzhi: ...

I hope that my cleverness backfired and I ended up attracting someone to urge me to get married again.

"Xixi, you also think that your uncle should get married, right?" Huo Lan's eyes lit up when he heard Nangong Xi's words.

"Of course, I support you." Nangong Xi and Huo Lan smiled at each other.

Huo Congzhi on the side suddenly had a bad feeling. Why did these two people seem to be in cahoots with each other?

"Xixi, I have collected here the portraits of all the women who adore my uncle and would not marry anyone else but him. Come over and pick together to see which one is my uncle." After saying this, Huo Lan took out a large stack of portraits of women from his space.

Nangong Xi: ...

It seems that Huo Lan is trying his best to urge marriage!

"But these were all two years ago. I wonder how many of them are still unmarried. It's really depressing." Huo Lan sighed again.

"What's so difficult about this? We can just make a new one." Nangong Xi said and looked at Huo Lan.

"Xixi is right." Huo Lan's eyes lit up when he heard that.

So the two of them began to look at the portraits together.

Seeing this scene, Yan Youle burst into laughter, but Huo Congzhi became depressed.

"Huo Lan, I think we can find someone for Uncle Yan as well. He's quite lonely." Nangong Xi's words made Yan You's laughter stop abruptly.

"Hahahaha..." Huo Congzhi, who was originally depressed, laughed out loud with schadenfreude upon hearing this.

"That makes sense. They are all uncles, we can't favor one over the other." Huo Lan nodded in agreement.
