Lin San saw that Xiao Yao was unmoved, thought for a while and said: "There is a good saying, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, the world is changing drastically, weapons beyond imagination are constantly emerging, the dark forest is constantly encroaching on the world, traces of alien life have appeared on the planet we are on, we are facing more and more challenges, we need people like you." ”

Xiao Yao took a deep breath and said, "I'm not that noble and won't dedicate myself to anything for these illusory goals, but I can guarantee that if it is within the scope of my ability, I can help you." ”

Xiao Yao thought to himself that he really couldn't give up his life for some insensitive stranger, just like the agents of Starry Sky II he saw when he was in the small building.

Lin San nodded and said, "Okay, if we need your help, we will come to you, and I hope you can take on your responsibilities at that time." ”

After speaking, Lin San handed him a business card and was about to turn around and leave.

"Ask a question." Xiao Yao said suddenly.

"You say."

"Why did you rush to the Xiao family's old mansion today?"

"We received news that you are in the Xiao family's old mansion today, so we are here." Lin Sandao.

Xiao Yao was stunned and asked, "The purpose of your coming is not to save people, but you still saved it." ”

Lin San nodded and said, "It's our duty to save people, and if we encounter it, we will save it." ”

Staring at Lin San's distant back, Xiao Yao couldn't help but have more respect for the second place in the starry sky.

Not long after Lin San walked away, Xiao Yao suddenly felt a murderous aura from far and near, obviously the killer was hiding the qi.

Xiao Yao turned around and saw a middle-aged man with a rough face walking over, the man arched his hand at Xiao Yao, and then pointed to Lin Hua, who was still unconscious, and said, "I'll take her away." ”

"You are?" Xiao Yao asked suspiciously.

"Grand Elder Lin Bo asked me to come." The man said bluntly, his face was a little not good-looking.

Xiao Yao turned his head to look at Xiao Bai on his shoulder, and Xiao Bai nodded. Xiaobai can go straight to the depths of people's hearts, and now he is about to become Xiao Yao's lie detector.

"Okay." Xiao Yao agreed.

The man said again: "Our Great Elder said that he will come to you again when your genetic research institute is completely independent." ”

Xiao Yao suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, he originally wanted to make the Genetic Research Institute independent from the Xiao family, Lin Bo inserted this lever, he couldn't be independent if he didn't want to, he had been labeled as "colluding with the Dark Forest No. 007", and it was predictable that he would be targeted by various forces.

But it doesn't matter, he doesn't care what others say about him, he just made a deal with No. 007 Dark Forest, and this transaction has always been done by people in the human world, many families are doing it, he didn't sell the interests of human society, but he has a clear conscience.

The man picked up Lin Hua, and when he was wrong with Xiao Yao, he suddenly said, "Remember my name, my name is Wei Dong, and I will come to you again." ”

Xiao Yao felt infinite hostility from him, he didn't know where these hostility came from, but he didn't care.

Watching Wei Dong walk away, Xiao Yao came to the cabin by the lake, the cabin was in disrepair, and it would rain outside and inside, perhaps because the lame old man was too humble, his hut had not been repaired.

Because of the war, the Xiao family's old house was full of broken branches and rubble, corpses were everywhere, and there were not even a single footprint within ten meters of the cabin.

Xiao Yao knocked on the door.

"Come in!" The old voice rang out.

Xiao Yao pushed the door and entered.

Inside, the old man sat on an ordinary wooden stool with his right index finger constantly making circles in the air, and an apple flew between his fingers, and in just a few seconds, the skin of the apple was completely peeled off.

This simple technique is not difficult for many superpowers, but the one in front of him is just a lame cleaner who no one has ever known before that he is also a superpower.

Xiao Yao walked over casually, took the apple floating in the air, and took a bite directly.

"You kid is fat!" The lame old man scoffed.

"Who are you waiting for? You're not waiting for me, are you? Xiao Yao chewed an apple in his mouth and asked vaguely.

The lame old man stared at Xiao Yao and finished eating the apple before saying, "That's right, I'm just waiting for you." ”

"My grandfather arranged it again?" Xiao Yao asked.

"Yes."

"Is Grandpa still alive?"

"Dead."

"What are you waiting for me?" Xiao Yao asked again.

"I want to know how you locked on me, I just made a move that no one would notice." The old man said.

"No one in the Xiao family's old mansion cares about the life and death of rhubarb, only you care."

The old man sighed and suddenly said, "Your grandfather wants me to pass it on to you." ”

"Legacy? What heritage? Xiao Yao guessed something.

The old man asked, "Do you know why there are only five ninth-order martial artists on the entire planet?" ”

"Only the inheritance can allow a cultivator to reach the ninth order?"

The old man nodded.

"Since there is a inheritance, why can't you mass-produce ninth-order martial artists?" Xiao Yao asked puzzled.

"The inheritance can allow you to advance to the eighth order of martial arts, but if you want to advance to the ninth order, you will know that when you reach the eighth order of martial arts, it is not so easy." The old man shook his head.

Xiao Yao thought of Xiao Quan, as well as the dead Xiao An, both of whom had brought him a great crisis and almost killed him, as well as Lin Hua and Zou Tian, both of whom he couldn't beat now.

He has to be stronger, he has to be stronger to protect himself and the people around him.

But grandpa must have a deep meaning in arranging all this, he doesn't want to be used by grandpa anymore, thinking of this, he asked: "Grandpa will never do a loss-making business, give me a legacy, what does he want me to do?" Guarding the Xiao family? ”

The old man shook his head and said, "Your grandfather has confessed, and with my inheritance, you can still do whatever you want." ”

Xiao Yao blinked, this was not Xiao Yuanzheng's style.

The old man paused, and then said, "Your grandfather also said that your understanding of the Xiao family is still too one-sided, and you still need to understand it again." ”

"Forget it, there's no interest." Xiao Yao shook his head without hesitation, he thought that he already knew a lot about the Xiao family.

The second uncle is a descendant of the Xiao family, and their family cares about people's lives as much as drinking water, without blinking an eye. Unscrupulous means for the sake of the end, in order to kill a person, you can let an airplane of people accompany the burial.

There is also the third uncle, there is nothing in his eyes except money, he can seek skin with the tiger, if it is possible, he will count the money with peace of mind when he sells the old mansion of the Xiao family, as long as he can make money, you will keep smiling even if you point his nose and scold his mother.

Not to mention the fourth uncle, there are more people who kill embryos than demons, and his intelligence officers will do whatever it takes to obtain information, killing people and stealing goods, burglary, kidnapping and ransom are all basic operations.

Such a Xiao family, he didn't want to know anything more. He just wanted to smash it, not to blend in.

"Whatever you want." When the old man's voice fell, he suddenly waved his hand to Xiao Yao, and the next moment, Xiao Yao found that he couldn't move, and even the flames in his body were all frozen in ice.

"You." Xiao Yao stared at the old man in surprise, he felt powerless for the first time, completely unable to resist.

"Appreciate it carefully."

When the old man's words fell, Xiao Yao suddenly felt that the flames in his body had converged into nine fireballs, one of which was larger and the other eight were smaller, and then, the eight fireballs actually revolved around the larger fireball.

Solar system?

The nine fireballs resembled the eight planets revolving around the sun.

Xiao Yao's shock was not over, he suddenly felt bursts of tingling pain everywhere on the surface of his body, as if dozens of openings had been cut on the surface of his skin, and inexplicable energy in the atmosphere poured into his body from those dozens of openings.

Those energies fuse between the stars to form nebulae after nebula, or they can be embedded in the planets and become part of the planets, making the planets more solid.

The nine fireballs quickly reached a certain equilibrium and began to move spontaneously, without even being guided by their minds.

The lame old man on the side suddenly froze when he saw all this, and muttered, "Seventy-two qi holes, how is it possible?" ”

When his master passed on the original Heavenly Scripture to him, he had said that the human body should absorb the energy of heaven and earth through the qi aperture, and the number of qi apertures also determined the speed of cultivation and future achievements.

The reason why he was selected by his master to advance to the ninth order was because he had penetrated fifty-eight qi apertures, which was already the top among all the eighth-order cultivators in the entire Xiao family. Only cultivators who have penetrated more than fifty qi points can advance to the ninth order.

There are only sixty-eight ancestors with the most recorded qi apertures, but this kid in front of him was born with all the qi apertures.

This man is more dead than a man!

The lame old man looked at Xiao Yao, the corners of his mouth involuntarily raised, and a slight smile floated.

I don't know how long it took for Xiao Yao to wake up from his state of concentration. He clenched his fists and felt that his body was full of energy, if Lin Hua was here, he would want to fight with Lin Hua.

"Fifth Order?" Xiao Yao muttered to himself.

The lame old man smacked him on the back of the head and rebuked, "Far from it! Remember the route I taught you to run the energy and practice a lot. ”

Xiao Yao bowed deeply to the old man and said sincerely, "Thank you, master." ”

The old man received a salute from Xiao Yao.

"What do you call the master? If someone asks, I can't say I don't know what the master's name is. ”

The old man shook his head and said, "If anyone asks, you'd better not mention that you are my apprentice, and don't let people know that you have all seventy-two qi apertures." ”

"Is seventy-two qi holes difficult?" Xiao Yao asked puzzled.

The lame old man said angrily: "In the same level, the more qi apertures absorb the aura of heaven and earth, the higher the efficiency will be, and the faster they will recover, so the duration of the battle will be longer, and relatively speaking, the cultivation speed of those with more qi will be faster." ”

"I'm asking about the seventy-two qi holes, is it difficult?" Xiao Yao asked again.

The old man glared at him and said, "Qi is a cultivator's secret, no one will tell this secret, think about it, if you know that your enemy's Qi Qi is only half of yours, you can spend time with him when you fight him, and it will cost him to death." ”

Xiao Yao nodded suddenly, but in an instant he asked again, "Then why don't you let me tell others that I am your apprentice?" ”

He couldn't help but think of the legend of Patriarch Bodhi and Sun Wukong, could it be that the master is still afraid that I will cause trouble for him like a monkey?
