The bright sunlight shone through the window, and the room was bright, and there was a faint scent of flowers.

However, when Yun Xi entered this room, her gaze was slightly condensed, because she seemed to smell a wisp of decay under the rich fragrance of flowers. This is the unique smell of the old man, and she knows even more how much the old man has paid for this family.

Obediently saluted, Yun Xi said: "I have seen the old grandmother." ”

In the middle of the large chair, an old woman slowly opened her eyes, although she was old, her mind was not blurred, but still sober enough to make people doubt her age.

"Hey, Xi'er, get up......," the old man sighed lightly, and said, "Sit down beside me." ”

Yun Xi answered, she stepped forward and sat down beside the old man, stretched out her hands, and gently patted her legs. She used great force to make the old man close his eyes comfortably.

"Xi'er, your talent is the highest among the many descendants of the Yun family, so you can become the official appraiser of the White Jade Pagoda at a young age. The old man said slowly, "However, you also have to remember that without the full cultivation of your family, you would not be able to achieve what you are today. ”

An appraiser is not an ordinary cultivator, as long as a cultivator has enough talent, even if he has not learned any peerless knowledge, he may be able to get ahead with his talent.

However, life professions such as appraisers are impossible, and if there are not enough resources to throw them down, it is simply impossible to train a qualified professional.

For example, if it weren't for the Yun family's cultivation since childhood, Yun Xi would not have been able to achieve what she is today.

Yun Xi lowered his head and said, "Yes, the child understands." ”

"Hey. Your father and your seventh uncle are vying for the position of the next patriarch, and the old body is in their eyes. The old lady's voice was still extremely slow, and it seemed that no matter what he did, he would be a beat slower than normal: "The two of them have their own strengths, but in comparison, Lao Qi's methods are a little more subtle and ruthless." ”

The old lady's eyes suddenly flashed with a glint of essence. Her gaze locked on Yun Xi and said, "I chose him because he is more suitable for the position of the family. Under his leadership, even if the family does not get the opportunity to develop, it will not decline. ”

Yun Xi's movements paused slightly, but then returned to normal, and said, "Yes." She secretly smiled bitterly in her heart, it turned out that her father lost points for this reason......

"Xi'er, I chose your seventh uncle. You're disappointed, aren't you?"

Yun Xi hesitated for a moment and said, "Yes, I'm disappointed. She knew that if she still had to lie at this moment, she would definitely not be able to hide from this old lady who was old enough to see through people's hearts.

"I know you're disappointed, but it's the patriarch's choice, and I have to be careful. The old lady said in a solemn tone, "In this regard." There is only survival of the fittest, and there is no reason to talk about it. ”

There is also competition between families. And a truly good leader is enough to take the family to a higher level. At this point, even if the old lady originally had a trace of selfishness, she would become selfless at this time.

Yun Xi responded: "Yes...... The granddaughter knows. ”

The old lady's eyes were blazing, and she didn't know how long it had been since she had been so moved.

If Yun Xi is not the younger generation she values the most and has begun to emerge. She would never do it.

"Xi'er, since you understand, are you willing to accept your seventh uncle's kindness?"

Yun Xi looked up and looked at the old lady with an expectant face.

At this time, if she doesn't have that trump card in her hand. Perhaps under pressure, she had no choice but to agree. However, at this time, she had another choice.

"Old grandmother, granddaughter has a problem. Yun Xi met the old lady's gaze without the slightest evasion.

"Don't worry. The old lady said solemnly: "Although Lao Qi is ruthless, he is not a person who does not know good and evil, as long as you are willing to become an alternate elder of the family under his nomination, then he will definitely not embarrass your father's branch." After a pause, she slowed down her tone and said, "You can continue to serve in the White Jade Pagoda and pursue a higher realm. If one day, you can become a senior appraiser, then it is possible to take over the position of patriarch for the next time. ”

She also thought that Yunxi was worried about her father's future life, so she immediately made a guarantee.

After all, Yun Licang was able to be selected by her, so he was naturally not the kind of person who was short-sighted. He will never make a mistake in judging between gains and losses.

However, Yun Xi shook his head slightly and said, "Ancestors, what I want to ask is not this matter. ”

The old lady was stunned and said, "Then what do you want to ask?"

"My granddaughter said that because of a major event related to the family's thousand-year-old inheritance, I want to ask to see you. This is not an excuse for my granddaughter!" Yun Xi said very seriously.

The old lady's expression moved, and her gaze, which seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, pierced directly into Yunxi's eyes like a sharp arrow.

Although he was caught off guard, Yun Xi still gritted his teeth and insisted, without any dodging movements.

After a moment, the old lady slowly closed her eyes, as if the action had consumed too much of her physical strength.

"Xi'er, you can say it. ”

"Yes, Grandmother. You know, the child is now an appraiser in the White Jade Pagoda. And today, two people came to the White Jade Pagoda to ask the child to appraise a batch of materials, and hoped to send the most important thing to the auction. ”

Although the old lady closed her eyes, her brows were furrowed, and she said, "Xi'er, as an appraiser of the White Jade Pagoda, you have to consider your identity everywhere, and remember not to lose a big one because of a small one." Instead of the slightest joy, her tone was filled with a hint of worry and dissatisfaction.

With so many years of experience, she has already guessed the reason why Yunxi is here. However, it is precisely because of this that she has concerns. The Yun family is one of the appraiser families that have been passed down from generation to generation in the White Jade Pagoda, and if for some reason they lose the protection of the White Jade Pagoda, it will be a catastrophe.

Yun Xi was unmoved, she continued to speak to herself.

When she said that she had seen a somewhat broken and fallen stargroup skin, the old lady's body suddenly trembled a little.

She has a lot of experience. Nothing has ever been seen. However, after hearing Yunxi's introduction, she immediately understood the true purpose of this object.

The treasure of the nation, and this thing is not a treasure of the nation for personal use.

This is a national treasure for a family or a sect that has been passed down for thousands of years.

Perhaps, in this sense, this is the real treasure of the country!

If. The Yun family was able to obtain this thing, and after repairing it, they would eventually establish a cultivation holy land that belonged entirely to their own family. Then, at least in the next thousand years, there will be a blowout of outstanding people in the family.

The benefits of a cultivation holy land are definitely much more important than a good patriarch.

Because the cultivation holy land is the foundation of the family, as long as the foundation is still there, everything is possible, and it is far more reliable than the chance of an outstanding patriarch.

Of course, this is also the accumulation of the Yun family over the generations. At this moment, he already has the strength and connections that match it. Otherwise, Mrs. Yun would be afraid to avoid this.

How much strength you have, how much wealth you can occupy. If you don't have this strength, then the wealth you occupy will not only not bring you help, but will come to you. However, for the Yun family today, there is a possibility of cultivation holy land. But it complements each other, and it is the most desired thing in the family.

"Xi'er. Are you really sure?" the old lady's voice suddenly became stern.

Although her eyes were sure that Yun Xi would not deceive herself, the stakes were so high that there was absolutely no room for negligence.

Yun Xi knelt on the ground and said loudly: "Old grandmother, granddaughter swears in the name of the ancestors and ancestors, if this matter is not the slightest false. Let the child die without a place to be buried, and the soul will not dissipate after death, and bear the pain of thousands of years of thunder and lightning bombardment. ”

The old lady said "ouch", and a happy smile immediately appeared on her face, and she scolded: "You kid. Who made you make such a poisonous oath!" she paused and said, "Xi'er, you know this matter, and before it is done, remember not to let anyone know about it." ”

"Yes. Yun Xi said in a deep voice. She naturally understands the importance of the matter, and she will definitely not say too much.

The old lady hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm afraid it will cost countless dollars to repair this thing, and it is not easy to buy this thing." She paused, a hint of fierceness flashed in her eyes, and said, "Do you know where those two come from?"

She was originally quite dissatisfied with Yun Xi's fake public and private behavior, but after knowing the reason, she immediately put aside all her worries, and even had a trace of evil thoughts in her heart. If those two people just got this thing by luck, then what they got was not good luck, but flying misfortune.

Yun Xi hurriedly raised his head and said, "Old grandmother, this matter must not be done." She said with some trepidation: "They are a pair of sisters and brothers, and the younger brother is just that, but the sister has a divine sword in her hand!"

"Excalibur?" the old lady gasped, only to feel a chill in her body.

can swagger around the world with the divine sword, how can the Yun family be able to provoke?

Yun Xi continued: "Master has also seen the light of the Excalibur and recognized that it is the Fang family...... Snow Lotus Divine Sword!"

The muscles on the old lady's face twitched, and the trace of evil thoughts that had just arisen in her heart was suddenly thrown out of the clouds by her. Even if he borrowed ten guts from her, he wouldn't dare to provoke the Fang family.

"Come on, call me the boss and the little nine!"

With her order, soon, the room was filled with all the Yun family authorities.

The old lady stretched out her hand and said, "From now on, the third child is in charge of all the power in the clan. She paused and said, "Third child, I'll give you a task now." She pointed to Yun Xi and said: "You mobilize all the forces and materials in the clan, cooperate with Xi'er's actions, no matter what Xi'er needs, even if you go bankrupt, you have to make up enough for me!"

Everyone looked up in shock, looking puzzled, but Yun Lifan was surprised and said loudly: "Yes, ancestors." ”

The old lady looked around and said lightly: "You also listen well, all branches are fully cooperative, no matter how difficult it is, you must not shirk! If any of them slack off, kill them and expel them!"

Although her voice was flat, everyone was creepy, and even her legs trembled.

She has been able to run the family for so many years, and her open-mindedness is definitely known to everyone.

With a gentle wave of her hand, the old lady said, "Let's disperse!"

Everyone came out, and when they left the courtyard, everyone suddenly gathered around Yun Lifan and tried their best to please them. Yun Licang, on the other hand, had a lost face, but no one looked at him anymore.
