Chapter Thirty-Nine: Infiltrating the Ancestral Land
Children, the established facts cannot be changed, what you can do is to change, complain about the heavens and others, not like your ancestors. The Ice Emperor said softly, looking at Xie Lian as if he were his own child, that kind of motherly gaze was deeply rendered in the air.
The Snow Emperor sighed secretly, she couldn't forget Yan, but the Ice Emperor, if the same is the case, Santian's love for Xie Yan can be regarded as a dry sea, and after a thousand years, it still exists.
"Kid, we'll help you. The Snow Emperor was the same, and in a serious and solemn tone, he made a strong commitment to Xie Lian.
At this moment, Xie Lian's heart quietly melted, no longer taking use first, but being a little moved and surprised, his eyes were thoughtful, and he didn't know what to do.
And at this moment, Yun Chen suddenly woke up, and he thought of a bold guess: "Sister Bing, Sister Xue, Old Man Yan, I may understand the exact identity of Xie Lian!"
"Old man Yan?" At this moment, Yunchen still didn't forget to tease Yan Sheng, which made Yan Sheng chew in his heart and look a little angry.
"You know?" the Ice Emperor looked at Yunchen in surprise, excited in his heart, and so did the Snow Emperor.
"Not bad. Ignoring Xie Lian's face full of surprise, Yunchen said with confidence: "Xie Qingchen's place is protected by the second elder of the Xie family, not only because he is the original line, but also because he is the one in the original line, the one who inherits the patriarch. Decades ago, Xie Qingchen left, and Xie Fuyan replaced him, they seemed to be helping him fulfill his wishes, but in fact, they were trying to control the Xie family. Now that he has returned, there must be a lot of high-level people who support Xie Qingchen. But the second elder of the Xie family is still so confident to bring it back, which shows that Xie Qingchen must have weaknesses in their control. ”
"Weakness?" the Ice Emperor solemnized, and the Snow Emperor asked curiously, "Is there a problem with strength?"
In the family inheritance, the bloodline is the most important, and the strength is secondary. Now that the Xie family wants to become the real patriarch, unless Xie Qingchen gives way, or forces him to give way, before that, he can't be harmed, otherwise all his achievements will be wasted. Yunchen said.
"What is Qingchen's weakness?" Yan Sheng asked.
"It's Xie Lian!" Yun Chen pointed at Xie Lian, and Shen Ting said fullly: "He has no relatives and no reason since he was a child, but he was adopted by the direct high-level officials, there was no abuse, and there was no preferential treatment, so that outsiders could not see the clues, and it seemed that there was no leakage." But that's what makes it doubtful. Isn't the contradiction in a powerful monk's adoption, since he adopted an orphan, ignore it?"
"Could it be that Xie Lian is Xie Qingchen's younger brother?" Yan Sheng woke up instantly, and the Ice Emperor and the Snow Emperor also understood and nodded in approval.
"Yes, it should be this relationship!" Yunchen smiled: "Xie Lian is still young and has no real rights, but Xie Qingchen is different, he is strong and has broken into the Transformation Realm." It is also a branch that can inherit the position of patriarch. As soon as he came back, he became the patriarch, and it was a matter of course. And Xie Fuyan is just the identity of a generation patriarch, the second elder of the Xie family, if he wants to seize power, he must let Xie Qingchen give way in person. Perhaps decades ago, Xie Qingchen's place left, really to break the seal, but the ambition of the second elder of the Xie family was stimulated. They disbanded the original system and controlled the dissolution of the connection, for the sake of the present. Even if they succeed in breaking the seal, they will seize power! However, it is even more natural to seize power at that time, because they are the main force in breaking the seal. In fact, they failed, so they could only rely on Xie Qingchen. ”
"If at that time, get rid of Xie Qingchen, then there is little hope of becoming the patriarch. Xie Lian will grow up in the future, and he has no handle in their hands, it is difficult to control, those clansmen who support the original line at the top will definitely protect Xie Lian and take care of it, when the time comes, the situation will be abnormal, it is better to do now, it is the best time!"
"What, I still have relatives, my brother, is Xie Qingchen? Who is he?" Xie Lian was puzzled, like a torrential rain, pouring non-stop.
The Ice Emperor, the Snow Emperor, and Yan Sheng, they suddenly woke up, and their hearts flashed with thoughts, and soon after, they already agreed with Yunchen's point of view.
"Yes, but now, you are here, the second elder of the Xie family will definitely send someone to come out to look for you. When the time comes, you will only become a burden to your brother, so it is better to join us now, don't suddenly have it and harm others and yourself. Yunchen warned.
"But I, I ......" Xie Lian was excited, and the desire for family affection flourished.
"Don't worry, you'll see your brother soon. The Ice Emperor approached, and with a look of pity, he looked at Xie Lian softly.
"Then where should we go now?" the Snow Emperor asked, her heart stirring, because through Yunchen's words, it seemed that she had found some kind of exit, and she would follow this exit and find Xie Yan, just around the corner.
"I don't know what your strength is now?" Yunchen asked, he was at a loss until now, sometimes, the Ice Emperor seemed to be omnipotent, but sometimes, he had a lot of scruples, and his strength was not so strong.
"Now, my reincarnation is not complete, and I am occasionally suppressed, and I can't break out from the cultivation of a thousand years ago, and my breath is not very stable. But if you face monks at the pole and below, there is no problem. The Ice Emperor spoke about his current situation.
"I'm similar to Sister Bing, if I forcefully urge the cultivation of a thousand years ago, it will only bring immeasurable consequences. The Snow Emperor said lightly.
"Old man, my strength is around the late stage of the transformation, and with all kinds of spells, I should be able to fight to the extreme, but for those who have attained the Dao, it is still not good. Yan Sheng said that although his strength is fixed, it is not at its peak, and he has not been able to recover from the trauma of time.
"So, if you face the enlightened ones, you have a great chance of defeat?" Yunchen asked.
"Not really, my breath is stable now, and when I fight with that dragon, I retain my strength. Therefore, if you meet the second elder of the Xie family, you can resist for a while. The Ice Emperor said, but only for a moment.
The second elder of the Xie family, who has mastered the mirror of unification, is also one of the strongest mystical weapons in the land of Prajna, and this clan has a long heritage, and the clansmen who have always walked out are famous for Prajna.
And the Ice Emperor, although he also has an extreme mystical weapon, but his strength is damaged, and he has not reached the peak, if it was a thousand years ago, he might be able to repel the second elder of the Xie family, but now, the situation has changed, and he can only resist the second elder of the Xie family, let alone repel it.
Yunchen thought for a moment, and then decided: "Let's go to the ancestral land, anyway, there, now the four directions are gathering." There must be a lot of high-level Xie family leaders who are strong and support the original system, and we can still use one or two. Then found Xie Qingchen, the brothers recognized each other, and finally followed Xie Qingchen to find further clues. If you can help them and take back control, then everything that follows will be much better. ”
Yunchen thinks far ahead, and it's also very good. But he suddenly remembered something, and said with a bitter face: "But I, with a torrential rain, according to Xie Qingchen's character, will definitely not conspire with me, this is very tricky." ”
Indeed, Xie Qingchen seemed to be confused by some kind of remarks, and was very eager to break the seal. Yan Sheng said that at that time, he had been secretly observing for a long time, and he understood Xie Qingchen's character.
"Then we're going to the Ancestral Land?" the Ice Emperor asked.
"Go! how can you not go?" Yunchen smiled quietly, and had an estimate in his heart.
"Okay, let's go!" The Ice Emperor believed in Yunchen, directly transformed into Changhong, took the Snow Emperor, Yansheng, Yunchen and Xie Lian, rushed to the sky, and then hurried in the direction of the ancestral land, they could not spend much time here!
......
It didn't take long for the majesty of the ancestral land to appear in front of everyone. Xie Lian was taken away from his ancestral land since he was a child, so he didn't have a deep impression of this place.
The entire ancestral land is dominated by dragon shapes, with four claws, which are four halls, and the long dragon body is a wide and long street, with tall buildings on both sides, like dragon scales.
And the place where the dragon head is the most important place in the ancestral land - the ancestral hall, and the ancestral hall is divided into two, like the eyes of a dragon. They stand tall on the high mountain, which is as high as ten thousand mountains, and it is difficult for ordinary monks to even see through them, let alone enter them.
These two halls, standing on the high mountain of ten thousand people, overlook the ups and downs of the fifteen cities of the Xie family, but they have always maintained a detached attitude. There are many branches in one line, just like the original lineage, there are branches that manage the Xie family, there are branches that inherit the patriarch, and there are also branches of other categories. If there is no successor to the branch of the patriarch, then the other branch will be pushed to the position of the patriarch, because these branches belong to the same lineage and belong to the same lineage, which is regarded as indistinguishable from each other.
And these two halls are the original direct line, and the current direct control.
The current direct line is originally the war line of this clan, they have strong combat effectiveness, and they are responsible for protecting the security of the family and other matters, and their status is superb. But now, the war system has killed the lord and become a direct line, and the original direct line has become the original line, representing decline and sinking to the bottom.
And these two halls, now there is only one hall, the lights are bright, all kinds of misty light, spread the body of the temple, showing its glory.
"The direct hall and the original hall, the bleak and dull hall, are the original hall. On the other side, the dazzling hall is the direct hall. Although the two elders of the Xie family seized power, although it was a little disgraceful, the high-level had to approve it, it seemed that it was because of a decision made by Xie Qingchen decades ago. The Ice Emperor said vaguely, the memories of the Najie family members he explored were only some approximate, after all, the level was not high, and there was very little information.
"Yes, it is rumored that since the death of the patriarch decades ago, his descendants, who disappeared inexplicably, hurriedly confessed their power and gave the right to bury the patriarch of Yandai. Xie Lian said that although he has accepted a lot of information now, he has not been able to fully digest it, and some things have not been confirmed, so he does not dare to climb high.
"According to the time, Xie Qingchen should be inside, and the second elder of the Xie family must also be there, but now, those summoned original clansmen don't know where they are? Yunchen said.
"As it should be. The Ice Emperor said, and then slowly landed on the long street, and they had quietly infiltrated the ancestral land.
......
The empty street, but the figure of the Xie family is continuous, and in a certain area in the distance, it is even more full of people, and the crowd is constantly surging in that direction.
"It's lively over there, you should check it out. Yunchen looked into the distance, in a place like this, there are a mixture of fish and dragons, and it is easy to come up with unexpected answers.
For example, at the beginning, in the auction house of Fengyi City, some people said that they had seen Yun Shao recently. Because of this, Yun Chen had a lot of suspicions, and finally concluded that Yun Shao, who was looking for the city lord of Fengyi, was not really Yun Shao. Maybe it was Lei Changqing's subordinates, but later, he should have been in Fengyi City, and he wanted to contact the Fengyi City Lord who was pretending to be dead, but he was accidentally bumped into by the monk.
With this experience, Yunchen naturally wanted to find more clues from the lively place.
The Ice Emperor took Yunchen and them, followed Yunchen's advice, and merged into the crowd.
The more you go to the lively place, the more dazzling the decorations come into view. All kinds of exotic beasts, birds and beasts, lifelike, some are carved on the eaves, some are woven by some kind of fabric, and then become the signboard of a certain shop, hanging on the flagpole, fluttering in the wind.
Coupled with the ancestral land, the brightness of Haoyang is bright, removing the surrounding black haze, bright and clear. The extraordinariness of the ancestral land is far beyond the two cities that Yunchen has visited, and even the air inside has the breath of the outside world, and there is a lot less black death.
Moreover, the clansmen living in the ancestors are all full of divine light, and the black mist on their bodies is much less than those clansmen in Tianyan City, and their strength is also stronger.
Not only that, but on the hand of each clan, there is a ring, which seems to be a space magic weapon, which can store items.
"It's such a big deal, it seems that the enlightened person of the Xie family has bothered a lot. The Ice Emperor also noticed the ring and recognized it at a glance, it was a spatial magic weapon, similar to Yunchen's Qiankun ring.
Yunchen couldn't help but be in a trance, if it weren't for the existence of black mist, he almost thought that he had arrived in a powerful cultivation area.
"One by one, almost all of them are in the transformation realm, and the overall strength of the Xie family, if you go out, it is enough to destroy several sects. The Snow Emperor exclaimed, his face full of surprise, written on her face.
"Yes, if they go out, their strength will not be a problem to compete for hegemony. If it is invaded by foreign races, the consequences are really difficult to predict, is it a problem to raise tigers?" Yan Sheng expressed his worries.
"Although the strength is strong, there are traces of alien races, and you must not go out. At the beginning, the Lord of Heaven may not have had to suffer hardship, not only sealed the alien race, but also sealed some members of the Xie family in it. Yunchen said, the four of them secretly transmitted their voices to each other, not letting Xie Lian hear it, nor letting the surrounding passers-by hear it.
After all, Xie Lian is still a person who solves the family, if he is confused and wants to snatch Yunchen's rainstorm, it will be a big trouble.
And Xie Lian is now silently following the Ice Emperor, and seems to trust the Ice Emperor very much.
Not long after, they came to the source of the bustle, only to see a person who looked like a gentleman, standing on a high platform, holding a stone in his hand, was making a big noise, as for what to say, the voice was noisy, Rao was the Ice Emperor's perception ability, and he could only hear some vaguely, but it was not coherent.
They were still far away from the man. Yunchen casually aimed at the people along the way, clenched his fists and asked, "Brother Dao, I don't know who that person is, and what are you talking about?"
"You don't even know who he is?" said the passer-by in surprise, looking at Yunchen with puzzled eyes, and then asked softly, "Are you a foreign race?"
"Brother Dao is too worried, when he first came to the ancestral land, he naturally didn't know, and I hope to forgive me. Yunchen smiled kindly, and at the same time a lot of doubts arose.
"No wonder. Passers-by accepted Yunchen's statement, and then introduced: "That person's name is Xie Qingchen, it is said that he is the current orthodox patriarch, and now he has returned from the outside world, bringing strange stones that can break the seal and go to the outside world, which is being sold, but the price is expensive, and many clansmen are just here to watch." ”
"What, is he Xie Qingchen?" Yunchen couldn't help but want to laugh, that person was far inferior to Xie Qingchen in terms of temperament and breath, obviously the kind of direct clan who was opportunistic and knew some insiders, and he was the kind of direct family with low talent and was ignored.
Yunchen was speechless and motioned for the Ice Emperor to leave.
"What's wrong?" the Ice Emperor asked strangely as he left the bustle and found a quiet edge where no one was around.
"It turned out to be a gentleman's son, who was taking advantage of the inside story of Xie Qingchen's return, and wanted to make a lot of money, probably because he was a direct clansman, so there were no guards to curb his behavior. Yunchen said disdainfully, and looked around, the guards in the distance had always maintained an indifferent attitude towards the lively place, obviously unwilling to offend the gentleman.
"Is there any gain?" the Snow Emperor asked curiously, seeing through the suspicions in the depths of Yunchen at a glance.
"You've found out. Sister Xue, will you also have the best Dharma in your heart?" Yunchen couldn't help asking.
"Cut, I'm smart and self-taught, Yansheng, the old man's spells, I already know. The Snow Emperor expressed disdain for Yan Sheng, which made the latter's old face dull.
As for Yunchen, he was happy to be familiar with this, and after smiling slightly, he said slowly: "Now, the Xie family is extremely complicated, and that passerby is not surprised by the alien race, it seems that he has reached a deal with the alien race, and the two sides seem to be in that harmonious state. ”
"Is there such a thing?" Xie Lian was the first to be angry, deep in his memory, he hated the alien race to the bone, and this deep feeling was innate.
"The way of the world, has it changed......" Xie Lian was sad in his heart, with despair, looking at the sky where light and darkness were intertwined, it was a very distant sky, and it was also the day of despair in his heart at this moment......
