Chapter 53: Dou Huang outside the door, come in
"Ancestor, look." In the private living room of the patriarch of the Xiao family, Xiao Zhan, who had a look of reverence, presented a piece of ancient jade that exuded this strange glow to an old man in gray robe in front of him with both hands.
"This is the ancient jade that my Xiao family has inherited for thousands of years." After a pause, Xiao Zhan added.
"That's right, it's this piece of jade." Xiao Chen's big old hands trembled slightly and took the ancient jade, gently stroking this ancient jade, and the old face was full of joy.
"Is that the Ancient Emperor Jade?" Sitting on the chair next to him, Yang Xuan glanced at the tea leisurely.
If you look closely, the strange lines on the surface of the ancient jade seem to be like breathing, sometimes bright and sometimes faint.
"This is the treasure of my Xiao clan," Xiao Chen muttered softly, his old and deep eyes full of relief, "Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade." ”
As an amazing genius of the Xiao clan thousands of years ago, as a high-level member of the clan, he naturally knew and had seen this ancient jade that was enshrined in the ancestral hall of the Xiao clan at that time.
In Xiao Chen's memory, the ancient jade of each of the ancient eight clans was the key to opening the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Cave Mansion, and it was also the treasure of the Xiao clan.
"A thousand years have passed, I didn't expect you to still be able to keep this ancient jade," Putting down the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade in his hand, Xiao Chen looked at Xiao Zhan in front of him, and said earnestly, "It's not easy." ”
"The old ancestor is serious," the Xiao clan bowed to Xiao Chen, and said modestly, "I, Xiao Zhan, as the head of the clan, should naturally protect the family treasure that has been passed down from generation to generation. ”
After Nalan Yanran left, Xiao Zhan returned to his residence sullenly, only to find that an old man in a gray robe and a young man in a white robe were already waiting for him in the living room.
Before Xiao Zhan could question the identity of the visitor, the gray-robed old man said in one sentence that the Xiao family was a descendant of the ancient race.
Xiao Zhan panicked now, he was the only one in the entire Xiao family who knew the origin of the Xiao family's ancestors. His father Xiao Lin once told him when he was dying that the Xiao family was one of the ancient eight clans on the Douqi Continent thousands of years ago, and later because of the destruction of other enemies, their branch fled to the Northwest Continent to live in seclusion.
Just when Xiao Zhan thought that the comer was not good, the gray-robed old man revealed his identity, and then proved it with the ancestral bloodline secret technique of the Xiao family.
Feeling the connection from the bloodline, Xiao Zhan now understood that the old man in front of him was his own clan.
"You're a lot better than those three." Xiao Chen took Gu Yu into his own ring and said with emotion.
"Ancestor is talking about the three elders?" The Xiao clan was stunned at first, but quickly realized who Xiao Chen meant.
Xiao Chen nodded and said indifferently, "I have seen the performance of those three people this morning. ”
"Hmm" Xiao Zhan was speechless for a while, but he didn't expect that when Nalan Yanran withdrew from the marriage, Xiao Chen was watching from the side.
But why didn't he notice that there were outsiders in the hall?
Could it be that the realm of the Ancestor has reached a level that he can't even detect?
Fighting king? Or Douhuang?
Xiao Zhan was about to open his mouth to ask Xiao Chen when a respectful voice came from outside the door.
"Father, I'm here."
Xiao Yan stepped into the living room and found that in addition to his father, there was also an old man in gray robe with a calm demeanor in the living room, as well as a ...... sitting on the side
"Huh? Why is Mr. Yang here? Xiao Yanhu looked suspiciously at Yang Xuan, who was drinking tea.
"Xiao Yanzi," Yaochen's eager voice sounded, "The person next to your father, I can't see his strength. ”
"Teacher, you can't see clearly?" Xiao Yan was also stunned. Before his teacher was killed, he was a strong man who was fighting for power, and he couldn't see the strength of the gray-robed old man.
"Yan'er, come here."
"Father," Xiao Yan walked up to Xiao Zhan and said with a puzzled expression, "This old gentleman is ......"
"Haha," Xiao Zhan laughed heartily and pointed at Xiao Chen, "This is the ancestor of our Xiao family." ”
"Ancestor ?!!!" When Xiao Yan heard this, he looked at Xiao Chen in disbelief, "When did our Xiao family have such an ancestor?" ”
"Yan'er, don't be stunned, hurry up and ...... to the ancestor"
Before Xiao Zhan finished speaking, Xiao Chen interrupted Xiao Zhan's words with a wave of his hand, staring at the quaint ring on Xiao Yan's finger.
"Come out, Ben Sheng knows that you are in it." Xiao Chen said lightly, and then a vast soul power poured into the ring.
"This ...... What a terrifying soul realm this is! The ring's medicine dust felt this sudden soul power, and his heart was horrified.
The next moment, in Xiao Zhan's horrified gaze, a transparent old man's figure flew out of the ring.
"I've seen adults in the medicine dust." Yaochen, who had palpitations, saluted Xiao Chen in front of him and said respectfully.
"Teacher......" Xiao Yan looked at the medicine dust that suddenly appeared from the ring, and his face was full of horror.
He didn't understand why his teacher was so afraid of the "ancestor" in front of him.
"Medicine dust? Medicine's? ”
"Your Excellency knows?" Yaochen was slightly stunned, and then said with a wry smile, "I am an outcast of the Medicine Clan, I was expelled from the Medicine Clan hundreds of years ago, and I have nothing to do with the Medicine Clan. ”
"Then why did you appear in my Xiao Clan's land?" Xiao Chen stood with his hands in his hands, looked at the trembling medicine dust, and said in a deep voice.
"I'm forced to do it too." Yaochen smiled bitterly and told Xiao Chen what happened to him.
"My son's vindictive disappearance is also your ghost?!!!" Xiao Zhan also didn't expect that there was actually a person hidden in the ring left by his deceased wife, and he pointed to Yaochen and shouted.
Yaochen didn't deny this, just nodded with a wry smile and admitted.
"Medicine Venerable?" Xiao Chen looked at Yaochen suspiciously, then turned his head to Yang Xuan on the side and asked, "Mr. Yang, do you know?" ”
"Hmm" Yang Xuan put down the teacup, nodded, and said, "He didn't lie to you, there was indeed a Medicine Venerable in Zhongzhou three hundred years ago. He was indeed killed by his gangsters, and I went to the Black Corner not long ago to arrest that guy. ”
"I see." Xiao Xuan no longer doubted Yao Chen, and asked again, "How many pharmacists are you?" ”
Seeing that Xiao Chen didn't seem to blame himself, Yaochen was also relieved, and hurriedly replied, "Eight pins." ”
Xiao Zhan on the side listened, only feeling that his ears had heard it wrong.
After all, there is only one second-grade alchemist in Utan City.
For him, Bapin didn't dare to think about it at all.
"In the future, the revival of the Xiao clan will be indispensable for high-grade elixirs, since this is the ......case," Xiao Chen thought for a while, and then said to Yaochen, "Since Xiao Yan has worshipped you as a teacher, you can teach him alchemy and pass on what you have learned all your life to him." ”
"Don't worry, my lord, I will definitely do my best to cultivate Xiao Yan." Yaochen smiled all over his face, bowed to Xiao Chen, and said with an oath.
"Okay." Xiao Chen bowed slightly, and then moved his gaze to the door, a trace of awe flashed in his eyes.
"Dou Huang outside the door, come in."
