Against the Other Gods - 52 Who The Hell Is A Genius ?
Early in the morning, the Xiao Clan entrance was already densely crowded. All of the influential families of Floating Cloud City could be seen here, and furthermore, they were represented by their heads. Although there were many present, none dared to be loud. They all whispered to one another in the smallest voices possible for fear that they would disturb the important guests amongst the Xiao Clan.
“I heard a long time ago that the Xiao Clan’s founder came from the Xiao Sect. It looks to be unexpectedly true.”
“The Xiao Clan will be soaring to new heights. We have to maintain a good relationship with them from now on.”
“Good thing I’ve never offended the Xiao Clan, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to eat or sleep in peace.”
“Old Mu, why did you come too?”
“Oh, every one was rushing to be the first here, so I couldn’t not come. They’re here to establish a relationship, but I’m here just in case. What if that brat from the Xiao Sect checked how many influential families were in Floating Cloud City and then saw that no one from my Mu family came here? If they find some fault with that, then my entire family would have to bear the consequences.”
Xiao Clan’s entrance remained closed, and everyone outside all waited with great care. Not one of them dared to leave.
After waiting for a few hours, Xiao Clan’s entrance opened.
“Honored guests, as the order of Xiao Sect’s Young Master Xiao Kuangyun, everyone can enter to witness today’s matter. Please come in.” Xiao Clan’s servant humbly inviting all the people at Xiao Clan’s entrance.
As the main entrance opened, all the powerful inhabitants of Floating Cloud City orderly walked in, each and every one with a reserved demeanor. All of them brought a heavy gift. Amongst the crowd, Xiao Che also saw Xia Qingyue’s father, Xia Hongyi.

Xiao Kuangyun’s extremely harsh words did not hide his disdain for both the entire Xiao Clan and their founder. A few Xiao Clan members scowled upon hearing this, but no one dared to make a fuss.
“And… It seems like a rat from the outside has been keep living in your little clan. I Xiao Kuangyun as the Young Master of Xiao Sect, the place of origin of your Xiao Clan, I still have a responsibility to clear up your problem.”
Xiao Yunhai start his act as he kneeled down to Xiao Kuangyun. “Young Master Xiao, This lowly person begging for your forgiveness for my incompetent in managing my little Xiao Clan. But please enlighten me so I can solve the problem that my incompetent self failed to detect.”
“you are definitely at fault for not knowing this, but as I’m a merciful person I will not punish you and as I’m a selfless person, I even willing to solve it for you.” Xiao Kuangyun talked as if he was a saint.
“now, as all of you from Xiao Clan already decieved by this person… let me enlighten you the fact that you didn’t know or even the whole city also didn’t know… the person that all of you praise as the number one genius, the one who the whole city worshipped as the most talented young man ever in this city… Xiao Che…isn’t the biological grandson of Xiao Clan’s Grand Elder Xiao Lie.”
All the Xiao Clan’s member got shocked after hearing what Xiao Kuangyun said, and even the guests also got shocked by the fact that got revealed to them. But there is two man who sneered when he heard this… they are Xiao Yunhai and Xiao Yulong. This duo of father and son snickered in their heart as they really hate Xiao Lie and Xiao Che.
Xiao Yunhai lost all his prestige and power because of Xiao Lie who have a bigger influence even though Xiao Yunhai is the Clan Leader. While Xiao Yulong hate Xiao Che who shove him aside from his position as the most genius of the clan and the whole city, even the woman that Xiao Yulong dreamed of had been taken by Xiao Che.
Xiao Kuangyun continued his talk. “Grand Elder of Xiao Clan, even though I respect you, I hope you can admit your wrong and tell all the people of your clan and the whole city that you decieved.”
As Xiao Kuangyun asked Xiao Lie, everyone’s eyes turned into Xiao Lie and keep staring waiting for his answer about this fact that they didn’t know this whole time.
Xiao Lie didn’t lose his calm as he still keep the demeanor of the strongest practitioner in the whole city. “I, Xiao Lie have never decieved anyone as I truly thought of Xiao Che as my real grandson!!” Xiao Lie’s voice resounded with a firm tone as he really think of Xiao Che as his own grandson.
But it didn’t suppress the talk of the other Xiao clansmen as Xiao Lie’s words also have a meaning that Xiao Che really isn’t his biological grandson.
Xiao Yulong then make his entrance as he start talked. “Grand Elder, junior apologize for his rudeness but it is still a fact that Xiao Che didn’t have the blood of our Xiao Clan. It makes him didn’t qualified to become a member of Xiao Clan. Xiao Che is just an outsider.”
As Xiao Yulong start talking, at first there is only him alone who talked but from one person it spreading to another person and it keeps spreading like a fire making all the other hot-headed young man from Xiao Clan also voiced out his feeling and shouted ‘Xiao Che is an outsider’.
With so many people shouting, Xiao Lie, Lingxi, Qingyue somehow lost in their own thoughts. Xiao Lie didn’t know what he want to say to Xiao Che as he actually want to keep this secret to his grave and never let anyone know.
Xiao Lingxi who got shocked by the fact that she and Xiao Che actually isn’t a blood relative making her lost in her mind as she remember what she said to Xiao Che when he ask what if she isn’t Xiao Che’s real aunt. Thinking about that, Xiao Lingxi’s face become red as she got embarrased.
Qingyue, who also didn’t know the fact also lost in her mind as a question appeared in her mind, ‘so what would happen if my husband isn’t from Xiao Clan ?’. But she didn’t think about this question too long as she find her answer right away. Then she look at her husband and smiled. ‘That’s right… as I already recognized him as my husband… no matter what happen, he is still my husband and always be’.
Xiao Kuangyun sneered after seeing the result that happened before his eyes. He raised his hand to calm down the other young man of Xiao Clan. As the other saw Xiao Kuangyun raising his hand, they become silent and stop themselves from shouting.
“Xiao Che, you as an outsider actually dares to keep living in Xiao Clan and keep stealing the Clan’s resources. As I am a sensible person, I ask you kindly to cripple your profound strength then step out from Xiao Clan by yourself.”
“As for the Grand Elder Xiao Lie and Xiao Lingxi, the two of you will have to come with me to Xiao Sect to get judged by.”
“and the young miss from Xia Family who got bethrothed to Xiao Clan, as you are the one who got decieved. I, Xiao Kuangyun representing Xiao Sect will take the responsibilty of Xiao Clan’s fault and sincerely invite you to Xiao Sect to give Xia Family a compensation.”
Xiao Che who heard what this good-for-nothing Young Master said can’t help himself and laughed as he can see the meaning behind his words by asking Xiao Lie, Lingxi and even his wife Qingyue to come to Xiao Sect.
As Xiao Che laughed, it attracts all the people’s attention… then Xiao Che’s expression suddenly turned serious and then he released all his strength making all the people got pressured by his full strength.
The middle aged man from Xiao Sect got surprised after he feel the strength that the number one genius of the city’s history released making his mouth reflexively said the words that appeared in his mind.
“Earth… Profound… Realm…”
Hearing this three words all the person who present in Xiao Clan got really shocked to the bone.
