Chapter 462: The First Goal
Walking out of the Heavenly Soul Hall with a wry smile, Xiao Zhang stood on the hanging edge, looking around, the sky was clear, the sun was shining, and the magnificent scenery of the entire Heavenly Soul Sect was in full view. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Just a few years ago, Xiao Zhang came here with a heart of awe, revenge was as difficult for him as it was to ascend to the sky, but now, the entire Heavenly Soul Sect has become his own territory, although it is through his own efforts and his father's assistance, Xiao Zhang still doesn't believe it.
Fall asleep!
Xiao Zhang shook his head with a sigh and walked towards the Heavenly Soul Peak, he was going to see his father, the current head of the Heavenly Soul Sect, Xiao Zhantian.
The four head protectors at the door are still the original four protectors, but this residence has now become Xiao Zhantian's residence, and Xiao Zhang is a little uncomfortable.
"See the deputy head!" The four Dharma Protectors bowed in unison and said.
Xiao Zhang smiled and said, "The four Dharma Protectors have worked hard. So saying, he walked into the dwelling.
In the hall, the fragrance of tea curled, Xiao Zhantian sat quietly in front of the table, and after a while, he slowly opened his eyes, looked at the handsome young man who walked in, and said with a smile: "Zhang'er, you are here." ”
Xiao Zhang saluted his father respectfully: "The child sees his father." ”
Xiao Zhantian laughed, stood up and helped Xiao Zhang up with his own hands, patted Xiao Zhang's shoulder again, and said with a smile: "Zhang'er, it seems that you have fully recovered, come on, sit down, it's time to tell you something." ”
Xiao Zhang didn't look surprised, but nodded calmly, sat down, and said, "It seems that the father already knows the purpose of the child's coming to see you." ”
Xiao Zhantian didn't sit down, but slowly paced back and forth in the hall with his hands behind his back, because he felt that what he was going to say next was a little heavy.
"Since you have already thought that your father has something to say to you, I would love to hear what questions and thoughts you have." While saying this, Xiao Zhantian's eyes wandered, and he seemed to be a little weak-hearted, and he didn't dare to face Xiao Zhang's gaze.
Xiao Zhang looked at his father quietly for a long time, and finally spoke: "Father, who are you?" ”
Xiao Zhantian's body suddenly tensed, and then he let out a long sigh and said, "Zhang'er, for so many years, my father has never told you, it's my father's fault. ”
Xiao Zhang didn't speak, quietly waiting for Xiao Zhantian's next step.
Seeing that Xiao Zhang didn't react, Xiao Zhantian glanced back at him, but quickly ran away, and then sighed: "Actually, my father, like Zuo Dongling, is an old man who has lived for more than eight hundred years. My father was busy all his life, just to monitor and restrain Zuo Dongling and prevent him from having bad intentions towards the world. ”
Xiao Zhang smiled slightly, but there was a hint of coldness in his smile: "Father has such a big heart, the child admires it!" ”
Of course, Xiao Zhantian could feel the coldness in this sentence, so he hurriedly said: "The reason why my father didn't tell you is because of ......"
"Father." Xiao Zhang calmly interrupted Xiao Zhantian's words, "You are scheming, there must be a reason for doing this, there is no need to explain it." You don't seem to have answered my question, though. ”
Xiao Zhantian let out a long breath, as if he wanted to spit out the breath that had been holding in his chest for a long time, but it didn't seem to work well.
"Many years ago, I was just a mediocre soul cultivator, alone and with a bleak future, I was fortunate to meet someone." Xiao Zhantian fell into deep memories and no longer called himself "father", "It was he who gave me the qualifications of Qijia and made my future bright." ”
Xiao Zhang looked at his father, but his thoughts drifted back to the night before the Xiao family's martyrdom, in that tavern, he also met a person, who gave him two magic weapons, and more importantly, those few words, which made his confidence unprecedentedly high.
"The person my father met should be the number one saint in the mainland, Zhuge Ming, right?" Xiao Zhang said faintly, but his thoughts had not yet drifted back.
Xiao Zhantian nodded: "However, Mr. Zhuge didn't take me as an apprentice, but only met me in Pingshui, and never saw me again." ”
Xiao Zhang was silent for a moment and said, "However, Mr. Zhuge took me as an apprentice, and I have only met him once. Since then, he has been living in his huge figure, and sometimes he feels breathless. ”
Hearing this, Xiao Zhantian suddenly looked back at Xiao Zhang, and asked with some surprise, "Is it?" Zhang'er, do you feel this way too? ”
Xiao Zhang nodded: "Yes, this feeling is very depressing and aggrieved. Why should I follow the path he has set for me? I want to go my own way. ”
Xiao Zhantian looked at Xiao Zhang in a daze, the excitement on his face became even stronger, and finally he couldn't help patting Xiao Zhang's shoulder with both hands, and said excitedly: "Sure enough, it's my son, it's really like me!" ”
Xiao Zhang asked lightly: "So, my father defected to the imperial court and began to serve the rulers of feudal society?" ”
Xiao Zhantian smiled bitterly: "By chance, I went to the Soul Capital City and participated in a competition. In the last match, my opponent was Zuo Dongling. I fought him for three days and three nights, but I still didn't win. ”
Xiao Zhang listened quietly and did not speak.
"This battle caught the attention of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at the time, so the general summoned the two of us." Xiao Zhantian continued, his thoughts fluttering, his eyes hazy, "Your Highness values the two of us very much, and immediately appointed Zuo Dongling as the head of the Heavenly Soul Sect. At that time, the Heavenly Soul Sect was still a small sect that had just started, and it was established by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince himself. Speaking of which, eight hundred years have passed, and the Heavenly Soul Sect has become one of the two top soul cultivation sects in the world. And His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at that time is now His Majesty the Emperor. ”
Xiao Zhang nodded and asked, "Zuo Dongling has been appointed as the head of the Heavenly Soul Sect, so what about you, father?" Doesn't the emperor also value you very much? ”
Xiao Zhantian's expression gradually dimmed, shook his head and said: "After Zuo Dongling left, His Royal Highness left me behind and told me that I would receive special training from the imperial court and would be reused in the future, but I would not have any reputation, and for a long time, I would live in loneliness and darkness." Later, I learned that His Royal Highness saw that Zuo Dongling had great ambitions, and he had to guard against it, so I asked me to restrain him. But Zuo Dongling is a very talented person, and the Heavenly Soul Sect that has just been established urgently needs such a person. ”
"Eight hundred years have passed, and the Heavenly Soul Sect has really become a top faction in the hands of Zuo Dongling." Xiao Zhang finally understood, "And at this time, the time is ripe, so my father came to reap the fruits of Zuo Dongling." ”
Xiao Zhantian nodded: "Yes, this is the task given to me by His Majesty, and it is also my first goal." ”
