The idea is very beautiful, the reality is very skinny, this is the first thought that pops up in Xiao Ding's heart.

Not to mention that Liu Yunqing's secret must be kept tightly, even if it is not needed, it is impossible to say it easily because of Yan Lao's words, or the promise of the other party to leave, if it is really done, then where is the face of the Xiao family!

How could Yan Lao, such a smart person, make such an unreasonable request for no reason?

Obviously, the other party was testing Xiao Ding's reaction in order to achieve some unknown goals in his heart.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ding's heart was also very complicated, and he didn't know how to deal with it, so that Yan Lao couldn't feel anything without a trace.

However, no matter what he does, I'm afraid that Yan Lao won't easily believe that the news that Liu Yunqing caused the entire ancient world to shake will inevitably leak out, even if he doesn't know the specific reason, I'm afraid that Liu Yunqing will be targeted by other sect families.

At this point, there will not be much suspense at all.

Since this is the case, there is no need to hide it.

After thinking about this, the corners of Xiao Ding's mouth outlined a sneer, looked at Yan Lao and said in a deep voice: "Yan Lao, you are so wishful, but do you think I might just tell you that?"

Liu Yunqing's spirit body is secret, and now it can be said to be the biggest secret of the Xiao family, even among the Xiao family, only a few people know about it, so naturally it is impossible for outsiders to know.

However, Xiao Ding did not say anything to death, but carried out his own layout.

"Then what conditions do you have, even if you put it forward, as long as it is within my ability, I will never refuse. A gleam flashed in Yan Lao's eyes, and he could clearly feel that Xiao Ding did not seem to directly refuse in his words, but had a negotiable attitude.

This also means that the secret of the Xiao family may not be too important, as long as there are enough interests, it can be discussed.

After having this thought, Yan Lao's heart was a little discounted about this secret, of course, if it could be obtained at a small price, it would be worth it.

After all, being able to cause the spiritual energy of the entire ancient realm to stir up with cultivation alone can be regarded as a secret of certain importance.

You must know that once they can master this kind of secret, then they can use it themselves, and when the time comes, the cultivation speed of the disciples in the sect will inevitably speed up a lot, although it is not said to catch up with and surpass the Xiao family, but it is definitely not a lie to enhance their own strength.

"It's very simple, anyone who is willing to stay in the Xiao family for two years can know this secret. Xiao Ding's eyes flashed with a gleam, and with only a slight hesitation, he directly offered his own conditions.

Two years of freedom in exchange for an unknown secret?

Yan Lao's face instantly became angry, these people are all the pillars of their respective sects, how important is the two years of freedom? It is also related to the development of the sect family behind it.

Can this secrecy be worth their expense?

Obviously, it can't be!

If there is no room for maneuver, then it is useless to continue talking.

At this point, Yan Lao didn't believe that Xiao Ding didn't know.

Then, there is only one possibility that can explain this matter, that is, Xiao Ding deliberately opened his mouth in the lion.

Thinking of this, Yan Lao didn't hesitate, and said directly: "Master Xiao, please show your sincerity, are you treating all of us as fools if you make conditions like this?"

"Old Yan, do you think I'm such a stupid person?" Xiao Ding shook his head slightly, and said in an extremely firm tone: "To tell you the truth, this secret is related to the future of the Xiao family, and it must not be revealed before the ancient realm Dabi has begun." ”

"I am prescribing such conditions now, in fact, it is also for the sake of you being an old-timer and having an old relationship with the ancestors of our Xiao family, otherwise, no matter what conditions you give, it is impossible for me to reveal them. ”

This sentence is the real thought in Xiao Ding's heart.

This......

For a while, Yan Lao was also a little unsure whether Xiao Ding's words were true or false, because he could feel the sincerity from Xiao Ding's tone.

Perhaps, this secret is really important.

Thinking that this way can effectively absorb the aura convergence and allow the disciples in the sect to cultivate quickly, this alone can be regarded as a great secret, if it is only mastered by the Xiao family, before the Great Competition of the Ancient Realm, it will definitely be able to overwhelm other sect families, and then obtain even greater cultivation resources.

And the Xiao family didn't want to reveal it so quickly, so there would be such a condition.

As long as the people who know stay in the Xiao family for two years, then this method of gathering aura will not leak out, and the Xiao family can naturally continue to beat the group in the next Ancient Realm Competition and become the biggest winner.

And the next Gujie Dabi will be two years later.

If you think about it this way, it can be said that it is completely reasonable.

At the same time, in Yan Lao's heart, he actually understands Xiao Ding's approach very well, after all, this method is currently unique to the Xiao family, if you don't get some benefits, you will reveal it, then why should the Xiao family do this?

However, understanding is understanding, Yan Lao still represents the sect family behind him, and for the sake of interests, it is naturally impossible to agree to the conditions proposed by Xiao Ding.

"Master Xiao, the conditions are too much, how about a year?" Yan Lao began to bargain.

One year is enough time for the children of the Xiao family to continue to lead their sect families in cultivation, and in Yan Lao's opinion, he has already made a big concession.

After all, with such a huge amount of aura, a year's cultivation time is not so easy to catch up.

What's more, the cultivation resources of the younger generation of the Xiao family themselves are more than those of other sect families, and they are also slightly superior in strength.

In such a situation, according to Yan Lao's thoughts, Xiao Ding should not refuse.

However, Xiao Ding's approach was completely beyond his expectations, and even without the slightest thought, he shook his head directly and refused: "Old Yan, I have made it very clear that there is only one condition, either you agree to it, or continue to carry out the gambling contract, you have no other way to choose." ”

The tone is firm, and there is no room for manoeuvre.

Yan Lao's face suddenly changed drastically, whether they continued to gamble or agreed to the conditions proposed by Xiao Ding, they probably had to stay in the Xiao family for two years and lose their freedom for two years.

At this time, Yan Lao really understood, I am afraid that from the beginning, Xiao Ding's purpose was to keep them all.

Thinking about this, Yan Lao would definitely not agree.

However, he couldn't think of any other way, unless he was willing to give up knowing this secret, but once he did so, the rise of the Xiao family was absolute, and when the time came, it would be extremely difficult for them to continue to catch up with the Xiao family.

Such a situation is even more unacceptable to them.

Therefore, they were also in a dilemma for a while.

And Xiao Ding didn't bother their thoughts, but waited patiently for their choice.

Of course, the main reason why Xiao Ding can be so calm is that this is the Xiao family, even if Yan Lao and they are quite numerous, but it is not easy to leave easily.

In order to ensure the safety of Liu Yunqing and Xiao Yunfei, Xiao Ding said that he would forcibly take action in the end, and he would also leave Yan Lao, a cadre, and others.

Even if it is to tear the skin with these sect families, it will not hesitate.

As long as Xiao Yunfei and Liu Yunqing have two years to improve, then their strength will definitely reach an unimaginable level, and at that time, the future of the Xiao family will not need their older generation to worry about it anymore.

Time passed bit by bit, and soon it was half an hour, but Yan Lao and the others still did not come up with a decision.

Xiao Ding's face couldn't help showing a trace of impatience, and he said directly and coldly: "Old Yan, I don't have so much time to spend here with you, make your decision as soon as possible, otherwise, start making a bet, I also want to see if Old Yan's strength is really invincible in the Void Realm." ”

Speaking of the last sentence, Xiao Ding's body burst out with a strong fighting spirit.

The momentum is amazing!

The fighting spirit is monstrous!

Yan Lao's face was shocked, and a look of shock flashed in his eyes, Xiao Ding's strength had reached such a point, and among the masters of the Void Breaking Realm in the entire Ancient Realm, I am afraid that they would at least be able to rank in the top five.

This is only a preliminary estimate, because for so many years, Xiao Ding has never really made a move, and naturally he can't guess Xiao Ding's true strength.

And the Xiao family's martial arts have always been very powerful.

If Xiao Ding's performance is stable enough, maybe there will be no big problem in ranking in the top three, and if he really fights with Xiao Ding, Yan Lao is not 100% sure of winning.

It is no wonder that Xiao Ding dared to challenge him directly, it turned out that he had enough confidence.

Thinking of this, Yan Lao's face became extremely ugly.

If you bet on the contract, after scrutinizing Xiao Ding's strength, even if there are certain mistakes, I am afraid that they will lose in the end, and when the time comes, they will definitely lose two years of freedom.

And the condition of agreeing to Xiao Ding is still the loss of two years of freedom.

However, in this way, you can also get the secret that the Xiao family can gather aura.

It's just that choosing to compromise like this is something that is absolutely difficult for Yan Lao to accept, after all, he has lived for such an age in the ancient realm, once the news leaks out, I am afraid that he will lose face.

"Master Xiao, you don't really think that we have no other choice, right?" Yan Lao's face showed a cold color, and he said in a deep voice: "If we choose to leave now, can you really force us to stay?"

"If you can do it, you can try. Xiao Ding also did not back down, and said directly in a cold voice.

At the same time, with a wave of his hand, he saw a large number of Xiao family disciples rushing up and surrounding Yan Lao.
