"It's okay, your daughter and I finally got acquainted, so you don't have to be so restrained!" Xiao Chen shook his head and said.

"That's it, Dad, Xiao Chen and I are friends!" Shen Ying pouted.

"This ......"

Shen Zezhong was a little suspicious, how could a heaven-level powerhouse like Xiao Chen become friends with his daughter?

It's not a world at all.

Could it be that Xiao Chen has always had a plot against the imperial order, but he is just using his daughter?

But it doesn't seem necessary.

A heaven-level powerhouse, if he really wants to snatch the imperial order, he will kill him directly, why bother with such a move?

Xiao Chen was so shrewd, seeing Shen Zezhong's uncertain expression, he immediately knew what he was thinking in his heart, and said lightly: "I actually just learned about the existence of the imperial order, and asking for the imperial order was just a moment of curiosity, and I haven't even understood its purpose clearly!"

"Uh......"

Shen Zezhong knew that his careful thoughts were being seen through, and he couldn't help but blush.

He didn't doubt Xiao Chen's words, because Xiao Chen had to explain, let alone lie.

Soon, Shen Ying's mother, Xia Xiang, hurriedly took out a black iron token and walked out of the house.

"Senior, this is the imperial order!"

Xia Xiang handed the Black Iron Token to Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen took the token, and suddenly a familiar aura arrived, which made him stunned in his heart.

"Is it really about me?"

Xiao Chen only became temporarily interested in the imperial order after checking the memories of those people in Ergou.

Although they are just minions and do not have a very comprehensive understanding of the imperial order, the fragment information is enough for Xiao Chen to realize that the imperial order is inextricably linked with him.

"Where did you get this imperial order?" Xiao Chen asked Shen Zezhong and Xia Xiangdao.

"This is the ancestral heirloom of the Xia family!" Shen Zezhong said, looking at Xia Xiang and said, "Xiao Xiang is a descendant of the Xia family, after the Xia family ceased to exist, everyone fought for the imperial order, and we were forced to leave our hometown and live incognito." Later, we thought that the most dangerous place was the safest place, and we returned to Dongjiang City again!"

Shen Zezhong Xia Xiang was originally from Dongjiang City, but later the emperor was coveted by all parties, ran outside and hid for several years, and finally quietly returned to Dongjiang City.

The move was undoubtedly bold, but it worked well.

At least they lived in peace for decades, and only today have they been found.

However, Xiao Chen didn't care about the Shen family's hiding, but fell into deep thought.

"Dongjiang City...... Lanning City ...... Xia family?"

Xiao Chen's memory seemed to have revived a little.

He thought of the Xia family in Lanning City, Xia Mingfeng and Xia Shiyun.

The last time I came to Earth, I had an intersection with the Xia family.

"Are you a descendant of the Xia family?" Xiao Chen looked at Xia Xiang and asked, "Do you know Xia Mingfeng?"

"That's the ancestor of my Xia family!" Xia Xiang said in surprise, "Do the seniors know the ancestors?"

Xia Mingfeng is just a mortal, and he will eventually die after a hundred years.

Now in the 23rd century, more than 200 years later, Xia Mingfeng must have passed away.

But seeing Xia Xiang's reaction and expression, Xia Mingfeng must occupy an important position in the history of the Xia family, which is enough to be remembered by future generations.

"I do have a certain relationship with the Xia family, I can't imagine that time has passed, and things are not people!" Xiao Chen sighed, and looked at Shen Ying again, "I can't imagine that you are a descendant of the Xia family?"

"I don't even know what's going on?" Shen Ying said with an innocent face, "I always thought that our family was an ordinary civilian family, where did I think that there would be so many things today!"

"Your parents are also good for you!" Xiao Chen said.

"Well, I can understand!" Shen Ying nodded.

"What is the origin of this imperial decree, and why are so many people vying for it?" Xiao Chen asked Xia Xiang again.

"The Imperial Decree was given to the Xia family by the Dragon Emperor back then!" Xia Xiang replied, "As long as you hold the Imperial Decree, you can make a request to the Dragon Soul Twelve Palaces!"

After a pause, Xia Xiang emphasized again, "As long as it is not vexatious, any request, the Dragon Soul Zodiac can help realize it!"

"Dragon Soul Zodiac?Mom, our family has something to do with Dragon Soul Zodiac?"

Shen Ying was shocked again.

The Dragon Soul Zodiac is such a transcendent existence in Huaxia, their family actually has a piece of something that can make a wish to the Dragon Soul Zodiac.

Any wish, can be granted!

It's incredible!

"Well, our Xia family had an extremely prosperous period when Xia Mingfeng's ancestor was alive, and it was extremely influential in the entire Huaxia, and the reason was that the Dragon Soul Twelve Palaces helped him!" Xia Xiang sighed, "But unfortunately, with the resignation of the Dragon Emperor and Empress Long, after leaving Huaxia, the Xia family has suffered great changes, and everyone will do whatever it takes to snatch the imperial order!"

"Dragon Emperor Dragon Queen?" Xiao Chen muttered.

"Hmm!" Xia Xiang said, "Since the establishment of the Dragon Soul Twelve Palace, there have been a total of three Dragon Emperors. The first Dragon Emperor is the founder, and it seems to have something to do with our Xia family, but I don't know much about these secrets. The imperial decree was given to the Xia family by the second Dragon Emperor, originally wanting to protect the Xia family, but he didn't expect it to be harmful, making all forces covet the imperial decree!"

"Then why don't you take the imperial decree to fulfill a wish?" Xiao Chen was puzzled, "The imperial decree in your hands is equivalent to a hot potato, it is better to get rid of it as soon as possible, and fulfill a wish by the way!"

"How can it be that simple!" Shen Zezhong shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Since the second Dragon Emperor Dragon Queen left, the third Dragon Emperor ascended the throne, and the Dragon Soul Twelve Palaces have slowly deteriorated. I think if we go to Yanjing, we will already be wiped out before we see the high-level of the Dragon Soul Palace!"

"Well, Zezhong quietly went to Yanjing back then, but was immediately stared at by a group of mysterious people, but fortunately he escaped thanks to his wit!" Xia Xiang said entangledly, "We thought about losing the imperial order, but after all, it is an ancestral thing, and we can't afford to throw it away!"

"I see, it seems that there is corruption in the Dragon Soul Zodiac as well!" Xiao Chen groaned, as if thinking about something.

Soon, he waved away his distracting thoughts and said to Xia Xiang and Shen Zezhong, "The emperor ordered you to hand it over to me, and I won't let you suffer." You can name a wish, and I will help you make it happen!"

"This ...... Seniors, you saved Xiaoying's life, and just now you saved Zezhong's life, the imperial decree is handed over to you, we are willing, and we dare not ask again!" Xia Xiang hurriedly said.

"Yes, senior, the two of us have been very happy for so many years, but there is nothing to ask for. If you want to say that the only thing you are worried about is Xiaoying!" Shen Zezhong said.

"Dad, I can take care of myself!" Shen Ying said, smiling playfully, "But you are a grandmaster, it would be nice if you could teach me martial arts." I usually have martial arts classes at school, but I don't seem to be enlightened and can't keep up with the progress of my instructor!"

"Martial arts pay attention to talent, Xiaoying, you are a girl after all, I have shown you a bone since I was a child, your talent is really ...... It's hard to put into words!"

Shen Zezhong said, shaking his head again and again.
