Chapter 613: Shock (3)
When Xiao Yunfei was in the ancient realm, he had already shown enough potential and qualifications, and was recognized by most of the elders and the children of the Xiao family.
Originally, Xiao Nianran, the only one in the Xiao family who was qualified to compete with Xiao Yunfei for the position of the head of the family, did not appear in time because of the evacuation of the ancient realm, and now he does not know when he will be able to return to the Xiao family, naturally, Xiao Yunfei will not be subject to much resistance when he succeeds to the position of the head of the family.
What's more, exploring the Ancient Secret Realm also requires Xiao Yunfei's guidance, and for this alone, these elders will not rashly target Xiao Yunfei at this time.
Of course, the premise is that Xiao Yunfei has enough sincerity for the Xiao family.
In the past, Xiao Ding didn't dare to make this decision rashly, after all, this is related to the future of the entire Xiao family, and if he is not careful, he may eventually bring the entire Xiao family into ruin.
However, after this trip to the Xiao family, what Xiao Ding has seen and heard, he has seen through Xiao Yunfei's heart and ability, and naturally there will be no suspicions.
Although there is still a certain gap between the secular Xiao family and the Xiao family in the ancient world, there is actually not much difference between people like Xiao Ding.
After all, it was only a separation from a hundred years ago.
In the Xiao family in the ancient realm, there are still several old ancestors, who are the old people who went to the ancient realm with the ancestors of the Xiao family.
It is precisely in this way that when Xiao Yunfei went to the ancient realm, he would be recognized by the Xiao family so easily.
Otherwise, how could the Xiao family in the ancient realm really believe that he was the real child of the Xiao family just based on Xiao Yunfei's words?
It must be known that other sect families in the ancient world also entered the ancient world with the Xiao family back then.
Those sect families naturally have a certain understanding of the world, and it is not impossible for them to secretly get in touch with the family sects in the world, and then send someone to break into the interior of the Xiao family.
Therefore, Xiao Ding has always held a skeptical attitude towards Xiao Yunfei's identity.
After this incident of the Xiao family, Xiao Ding finally determined Xiao Yunfei's identity, and naturally, there would be no more precautions like before.
Moreover, Xiao Nianran has always been a daughter, and it is also difficult to inherit the Xiao family.
A hundred years ago, this was the rule.
Even until now, for a martial arts family like the Xiao family, it is a potential rule.
In fact, Xiao Nianran also deeply understood this at the beginning, and when she faced Xiao Yunfei, she did not act excessively, but only wanted to test it.
In fact, she also knows that it is very difficult for her to become the head of the family.
And the other children of the Xiao family do not have that qualification.
Only a genius like Xiao Yunfei can lead the Xiao family further.
Now, Xiao Nianran is not there, Xiao Ding naturally seized this opportunity to officially confirm Xiao Yunfei's identity, firstly, to completely reassure Xiao Yunfei's heart, so as not to make mistakes in the matter of going to the Ancient Secret Realm.
Second, as Xiao Ding himself said, his age is actually not young, almost fifty years old, if he can cultivate wholeheartedly, then in his lifetime, maybe he will be able to ask about a higher realm.
If he had been dragged down by the family's affairs, then Xiao Ding didn't dare to guarantee whether he would still have a chance to break through to the Holy Realm.
You know, once he can reach this realm, his lifespan can be increased by at least a few decades, and with these decades, he will have the opportunity to ask about a higher realm.
Such a huge temptation can naturally make Xiao Ding make the right choice.
Another point is Xiao Yunfei's ability, since he can be so attentive to the worldly Xiao family, then when the two sides are completely merged, they will naturally be a family.
With Xiao Yunfei's heart, it will inevitably be subject to the interests of the entire family.
Therefore, Xiao Ding finally made such a decision.
Hearing Xiao Ding's words, those elders of the Xiao family in the Ancient Realm did not show the slightest abnormality, anyway, they had already made such preparations in their hearts.
And Xiao Yunfei, whether in terms of strength or qualifications, can be regarded as recognized by them.
Moreover, only when Xiao Yunfei becomes the head of the family can he do his best to explore the ancient secret realm, so that they also have the opportunity to break through to a higher realm.
In ancient times, the cultivation methods of monks were undoubtedly full of great temptation for them elders.
You must know that they are older than Xiao Ding, but they may not be able to compare with Xiao Ding in terms of strength, if there are no other opportunities, they want to make a breakthrough again, and there is almost no chance.
It can be said that the Ancient Secret Realm brought by Xiao Yunfei has already made them see the opportunity.
Based on this alone, even if Xiao Ding didn't make such a decision, I'm afraid that some of them would also take the initiative.
Of course, these premises must be that Xiao Yunfei is the real child of the Xiao family.
And this trip to the worldly Xiao family has made them completely let go of such worries, and naturally, Xiao Yunfei's succession will no longer be hindered.
On the other hand, the five elements of the Xiao family were full of excitement.
Originally, in their hearts, they thought that after the Xiao family was completely merged, with the strength of the Xiao family in the ancient realm, they would definitely not easily give up the position of the head of the family, after all, the gap between the two sides was there.
However, he never thought that Xiao Yunfei would have such a great prestige in the Xiao family in the ancient realm, and this could be seen just because these elders remained silent in the face of Xiao Ding's words.
Naturally, they also knew very well in their hearts how much benefit Xiao Yunfei would have for the children of the Xiao family who originally belonged to the mundane Xiao family after the merger.
It can be said that once this matter comes true, then the merged Xiao family will be able to twist into a rope immediately, and there is no need to worry about other accidents.
As for Xiao Yunfei, he was also slightly stunned, he never thought that Xiao Ding would make such a decision at this time.
This was completely unexpected.
However, Xiao Yunfei did not have the heart to refuse, and he also understood how much benefit he would bring once he became the head of the family.
At the very least, it can be guaranteed that no matter what happens to the exploration of the Ancient Secret Realm, it will not pose any threat to him and Liu Yunqing.
What should really be considered is Xiao Nianran's attitude.
After all, Xiao Nianran has always been the real first-day talent of the Xiao family, and if she doesn't have the slightest idea about the position of the head of the family in her heart, it is absolutely impossible.
However, since Xiao Ding has proposed it, there must be a way to solve it.
Therefore, after thinking about it for a while, Xiao Yunfei looked at Xiao Ding with a serious face: "Family Master, I agree with your decision, this will definitely be of great benefit to the current situation." ”
"Then, I will be the head of this family. ”
"However, there is one thing I still have to say in the front, I, the head of the family, is only temporary, once Xiao Nianran returns, I hope to be able to get her approval. ”
"If she is against it, then I would rather give up the position of head of the family. ”
Hearing this, Xiao Ding and many elders were full of surprise, obviously not expecting that Xiao Yunfei would be able to maintain such sanity in the face of the position of the head of the family.
It can be said that Xiao Yunfei did this completely for the sake of the stability of the Xiao family.
If Xiao Yunfei really didn't have any thoughts about the position of the head of the family, then it was absolutely impossible to agree to it at this moment.
Based on this alone, whether it was Xiao Ding or many elders, they all looked at Xiao Yunfei in their hearts, and it seemed that there was nothing wrong with their decision.
"Yunfei, there is no need to talk about this matter anymore, although Nian Ran is good, she actually knows for a long time that she can't become the head of the family. Xiao Ding shook his head slightly and explained, "Otherwise, do you think that with her current strength, she will not become the head of the family for a long time?"
Breaking the peak of emptiness is already the same realm and strength as Xiao Ding.
Such a genius child, according to the normal situation, should have inherited the position of the head of the family a long time ago, rather than Xiao Ding continuing to occupy this position.
In fact, Xiao Yunfei had also considered this situation before, but he believed that this should be the decision of the Xiao family in the ancient realm.
After all, Xiao Nianran's age is really a little young, and he became the head of the family so rashly, which is a little unreasonable, where would he think that there are other reasons?
Therefore, Xiao Yunfei immediately did not hesitate, and immediately asked: "Family master, what is going on? With her ability, there is no problem in succeeding to the position of family master." ”
"According to the ancestral system, a woman cannot be the head of the house. Xiao Ding didn't have any concealment, and said directly: "So, I've been looking for a new heir, but the qualifications of those children are too mediocre, so I haven't had a chance to let it go." ”
"Therefore, you can rest assured that you will succeed the head of the family, and even after Nian Ran returns, you will definitely not have any opinions. ”
"This ......"
Xiao Yunfei was dumbfounded, he didn't expect that it would be such a reason, could it be that today's society would still follow such an ancient ancestral system?
If this word spreads, I'm afraid it won't be a good thing for the Xiao family.
"The ancestral system is unbreakable, and since it exists, there is a certain truth. Xiao Ding naturally saw Xiao Yunfei's thoughts, and couldn't help but shake his head slightly.
To tell the truth, in Xiao Ding's heart, he already had the idea of breaking the ancestral system before, at that time, the Xiao family really had no successors, except for Xiao Nianran who could deter other sect families, the rest of the Xiao family's children were simply overwhelmed.
For the sake of the Xiao family's future, he had to think about it.
However, with the appearance of Xiao Yunfei, Xiao Ding saw new hope, and the original idea of breaking the ancestral system was naturally shelved.
What's more, the current situation is completely different, and the Xiao family has also stepped out of the ancient realm and embarked on another path again.
Then, in such a situation, Xiao Yunfei is indeed the most suitable candidate.
