As soon as Yan Lao's words fell, the people of the other sects were slightly stunned, they had to admit that what the other party said was not bad at all, this is the Xiao family, and any situation is extremely unfavorable to them.

Once it is really as Yan Lao expected in the end, then all their efforts will be in vain, and not only will they lose their freedom at that time, but they will not even be able to complete the purpose of coming to the Xiao family.

Rather than taking a huge risk and being sure that you will not be able to complete the task, it is better to choose to compromise and directly exchange two years of freedom for the secret you want to know.

After all, Yan Lao's previous guess was also very much recognized in their hearts, it must be that the Xiao family has mastered the method of how to gather aura, once they can also get it, it is absolutely unimaginable for the development of the sect behind them.

Although, in the end, it will be used two years later than the Xiao family, and it may not be able to catch up with the Xiao family in terms of cultivation, but it is better than not getting nothing, right?

It must be known that if the strength of the Xiao family continues to grow, it will inevitably continue to suppress them in the future and will not be able to raise their heads.

Such a result is far from what they can afford.

Although the method of aura gathering is very important, if the younger generation of the Xiao family is not qualified, they will definitely not be able to reach the top in cultivation.

As long as the disciples of the sect families behind them have qualifications that surpass those of the younger brothers of the Xiao family, then even if they cultivate two years late, they still have a chance to catch up.

Therefore, what they pay now may not be in return.

Thinking of this, in fact, their hearts have begun to waver a little, but they are still worried that Xiao Ding will perfunctory them, and after agreeing, they will not honestly tell the secret.

If this is the case, then what is their contribution?

It is precisely for this reason that they don't dare to let go easily, two years of freedom is too important, once they don't get the due reward, it will be completely worth the loss.

When the time comes, then they would rather take the plunge.

Even if you fail in the end, you will definitely have no regrets, at least you have worked hard.

However, they still want to listen to Yan Lao's opinion, and believe that the other party should be able to give themselves a certain amount of confidence.

"Old Yan, what you said is indeed good, but we are still worried that the Xiao family will go back on their word and perfunctory us with some insignificant secrets when the time comes, after all, the method of gathering spiritual energy is just our guess. ”

Hearing this, Yan Lao's face was also solemn.

Their concerns are not unreasonable, although the Xiao family's reputation is good, but this kind of secret related to the future of the family is absolutely impossible to reveal easily.

If this is the case in the end, then their efforts will be completely outweighed by the losses.

However, the situation has developed to this point, even if Yan Lao wants to regret it, I am afraid it will be too late, not to mention, it has been delayed for so long, presumably with Xiao Ding's cleverness, the other masters of the Xiao family will arrive soon.

At this time, if you choose to leave, there is absolutely no chance.

Therefore, there is only one way to go to the dark, and there is no other choice.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I know your concerns, but there is no way back for us now. Yan Lao's eyes were solemn for a while, completely covering up the thoughts in his heart, and said with a touch of confidence: "What's more, in the past hundred years, the Xiao family has been working hard for the prosperity of the ancient world, if they have always been selfish, I am afraid that the ancient world will not develop into the current situation." ”

"Therefore, I believe that the Xiao family will tell us the real secret for the sake of the overall situation of the entire ancient world. ”

"What's more, if this matter spreads, how will the Xiao family's face remain?"

Hearing that Yan Lao was so confident, the people from other sect families all glanced at each other, and they had to admit that Yan Lao's words had a certain truth, and the Xiao family might not really do such a thing.

It's just that they are not sure what the secret of the Xiao family is?

However, in the end, they didn't have the slightest way, they could only choose to advance and retreat together with Yan Lao, anyway, this matter was insisted on by Yan Lao, and when there was really a problem, then they could completely shift all the responsibility to Yan Lao.

"Okay, since you have all agreed, then the rest of the matter will be left to me to negotiate with the Xiao family, and I believe that the final result should not disappoint you. Seeing that they all agreed, Yan Lao's heart was also heavily relieved.

If in the end, the people of these sect families were desperate to tear their faces with the Xiao family, and the overall situation of the ancient realm would definitely be destroyed.

At that time, I am afraid that the whole situation will develop towards the Xiao family.

Now that this problem has been solved, there is naturally no need to worry too much, anyway, the situation has developed to this point, and they have no other choice but to go with the flow.

Afterwards, Yan Lao naturally did not hesitate at all, and immediately walked towards Xiao Ding.

At this time, continuing to delay time will only add more accidents, and things must be settled as soon as possible.

"Yan Lao, have you made a decision?" Seeing Yan Lao coming, the corners of Xiao Ding's mouth slightly outlined a curvature, and he asked directly, without any worry in his tone, but full of confidence.

In fact, it is very normal for Xiao Ding to have such self-confidence.

This is the Xiao family, no matter what decision Yan Lao and they make, there will be no surprises for them.

What's more, Yan Lao and the others have been able to cultivate to this day, naturally they are not fools, how can they not see the current situation, and naturally know what choice to make, which is the most beneficial for them.

After all, once a wrong choice is made, it will be an unbearable consequence for Yan Lao and them, and even for the sect family behind them.

"Yes, they've all agreed. Yan Lao did not hesitate, with a slight sigh, and said, "However, we hope that the head of the Xiao family will not tear up the agreement and say what we want to know." ”

"That's fine. ”

Xiao Ding nodded indifferently, for this, he had already prepared for this.

"Okay, then I will believe in the Xiao family master. Yan Lao didn't rush to ask about the secret, but said directly: "Next, we still need the Xiao family master to make arrangements, it's impossible to stay here like this, right?"

As for the secret, they need to stay in the Xiao family for two years anyway, even if the Xiao family doesn't tell them the true secret, then two years is enough for them to find out.

It was precisely with this in mind that Yan Lao would agree without hesitation.

Of course, Yan Lao did not tell other sect families about this idea, and the main reason was that he had his own selfishness in his heart.

"No problem, you can bring the others with me. Xiao Ding naturally will not refuse, these people are all staying in the Xiao family, which is actually a trouble for the Xiao family, but Xiao Ding must take into account the situation of Xiao Yunfei and Liu Yunqing.

As long as Xiao Yunfei and Liu Yunqing can have enough cultivation time, then all the troubles are nothing.

Now all the focus of the Xiao family should be on the two of them, and only in this way can we ensure that there will be no trouble in the future of the Xiao family.

Although, this decision is only what Xiao Ding thinks in his heart, and it has not been revealed for the time being.

But Xiao Ding also knew very well in his heart that this idea was really a bit crazy, once the other children of the Xiao family knew about it, I was afraid that it would cause an uproar, and at that time, it might also cause civil strife in the Xiao family.

After all, Xiao Yunfei and Liu Yunqing are both from the world, although they are also children of the Xiao family, but the fact that the Xiao family in the ancient realm has been able to develop to this day and have today's status is completely due to the efforts of the ancestors of the Xiao family in the ancient realm.

The worldly Xiao family can be said to have no credit.

When Xiao Yunfei first arrived in the Ancient Realm, he was able to get the key cultivation of the Xiao family, which was actually very rare, if Xiao Yunfei was born in the Xiao family in the Ancient Realm, I am afraid that he didn't even need to carry out the previous test.

Based on this alone, it can be seen that in fact, although Xiao Yunfei's qualifications and potential are strong, there is still a long way to go before he can be truly recognized by the other children of the Xiao family in the ancient realm.

Soon, under Xiao Ding's arrangement, dozens of old men from other sect families had already been arranged.

In the end, only Yan Lao and the heads of other sect families followed Xiao Ding to a room.

"Master Xiao, everything has been arranged, you should be able to tell us now, right?" The person in charge of one of the sects asked directly to Xiao Ding with an impatient tone.

Suddenly, everyone else focused their attention on Xiao Ding's body for the first time.

For this secrecy, they can be said to have paid a great price, and now they naturally don't want Xiao Ding's answer to disappoint them.

"No problem, when did my Xiao family do anything to break their promise?" Xiao Ding smiled indifferently, without any hesitation, and said directly: "This secret, in fact, is just as you think, the Xiao family has obtained a method of gathering aura. ”

"This method was brought by the children of the Xiao family from the world, and the reason why it caused such a big shock before was actually the first time we conducted an experiment, and we didn't expect that it would be like this in the end. ”

And so it was.

Hearing Xiao Ding's words, Yan Lao and their hearts were all happy, as long as they could get this method of gathering aura, then their current efforts would be worth it.

Therefore, they were all quietly waiting for Xiao Ding's next words.

Because, they can imagine, the next time should be when Xiao Ding tells that secret.

"Actually, this method is a kind of formation, according to my guess, it should be a spirit gathering array handed down from ancient times. The corners of Xiao Ding's mouth outlined a smile, and he directly said the method he had thought of in advance.
