"You're more like him. Si Tian smiled bitterly and sighed, his eyes didn't know what past he remembered, shining, "I still remember drinking with him once, he was drunk and dragged my hand and kept nagging, talking about you over and over again, saying that he didn't worry about you, saying that he didn't understand you at all, and he was afraid that one day you would not be able to control yourself, hey...... At that time, I didn't understand what he meant, he was drunk and still kept his mouth shut and didn't reveal anything, and now that I think about it, your clan must still have some secrets that you can't see, right?"

"Say me?" Xiao Yibai just smiled very calmly, his parents have always loved his younger brother more, but was the person who was the most worried about him actually himself?

This is a bit unexpected for him, he has the impression that his younger brother when he was a child is not always like to talk like now, on the contrary, he likes to pester his mother to take him to the market to play, and for his parents, the younger brother who is more cheerful by nature is the person they care about the most.

Xiao Yibai silently turned the wine glass in his hand, and his face floated in the clear wine, but it made him involuntarily think of his younger brother.

My brother's character of being so cautious and cautious now, and refusing to open his heart to anyone, has also completely changed after the murder case, right?

"The person he is most worried about is you-" Si Tian repeated, looking directly at the other party's pair of ice-blue pupils, his eyes were as deep as thick ink that could not be dissolved, and whispered, "Your eyes are exactly the same as Ling Yun, but your brother is different from you, what is going on?"

Xiao Yibai paused, carefully took out something from his arms and put it in front of him, the corners of Si Tian's mouth twitched slightly, it was the family crest of Tianzheng Mansion, a fierce beast Qiqi!

He had deliberately understood some myths and legends there when he traveled in the Central Plains, and finally found the strange beast on the family emblem of his friend Xiao Lingyun in an ancient book called "The Classic of Mountains and Seas". There is a beast on it, its shape is like a cow, hedgehog hair, the name is poor, the sound is like a dog, it is a cannibal. It is also recorded in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas, North of the Sea", "Poor and strange like a tiger, winged, cannibalism from the beginning, the food is distributed, in the north of the dog." A day from the foot. ”

Either way, it is a vicious and cruel ancient beast, the embodiment of the most evil thing.

At that time, he had doubts, his friend had a bright and upright life, and he was a real upright gentleman, why was the family crest inexplicably engraved with such an unlucky thing?

"This is Qiqi, and in some legends, it is one of the four fierce beasts of antiquity. Xiao Yibai explained lightly, his slender fingers caressed the eyes of the fierce beast on the family crest, and reminded with a low smile, "Don't you think the eyes of this fierce beast are a little familiar?"

Si Tian gasped, and subconsciously touched the white long sword in his hand, Xiao Yibai pointed to the family crest quietly, and then raised his hand under his eyelids, and a sneering smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "The ancestor of the Xiao clan is a fierce beast, but it is different from most foreign races, it has not experienced tens of thousands of years of racial evolution, but has unexpectedly obtained another supreme divine power, and has been directly reborn into a real 'human', so the family crest of Tianzheng Mansion will be such a fierce thing." ”

"Ancestor ......" Si Tian couldn't understand the true meaning of his words for a while, but he lowered his head seriously, connecting the abnormal changes in his friends over the years.

Back then, he was still the master of the military pavilion, Xiao Lingyun was the most proud general under him, and he had always unabashedly regarded him as his successor, consciously and deliberately cultivated, in the short few years of working together before leaving office, he found that when encountering danger, Xiao Lingyun would burst out with terrifying power in an instant, which is indeed not like what human beings should have!

It turned out to be the power of the fierce beast, the Xiao family...... Why hasn't anyone noticed it under the nose of the imperial capital for so many years?

Seeing the question in his eyes, Xiao Yibai just carefully stroked the family crest, as if the old little thing was a priceless treasure, and sighed: "That supreme divine power comes from the Heavenly Realm, and the original fierce beast Qiqi devoured a god, and replaced everything in him, and began to live incognito in this land with a new identity, the reason why the royal family could not detect the alien aura of the Xiao family was also covered by this divine power of the Heavenly Realm." ”

"Heavenly Realm!" Si Tian's eyes burst out of a string of sharp snow light at the same time as hearing these three, and he suppressed his emotions quietly in an instant, Xiao Yibai let out a long breath, a little helpless, " He lived like an ordinary person in Feiyuan, and also left his descendants, and has been instilling the consciousness of concealing his identity in the depths of his bones and blood, until he died suddenly hundreds of years ago, this suppressed bloodline was revealed little by little, and the Xiao family saved the emperor at that time, was crowned a great merit, and finally obtained the right to live in the imperial capital and became a new magnate. ”

Xiao Yibai's eyes turned slightly, as if he was observing the other party's expression, only to see Si Tian holding his chin without saying a word, his weather-beaten face was a deep meaning that he couldn't see through at all, and continued: "The bloodline belonging to the fierce beast is becoming more and more difficult to control, and the first feature that is exposed is to obtain these ice blue eyes. ”

“......”

"But until me, they have covered it up very well, after all, once the bloodline is exposed, the Xiao clan will be regarded as a lowly alien and lose the status of the nobility of the imperial capital, so even if this power is so strong, my ancestors are still desperate to cover it up. Xiao Yibai evoked a strange smile, more like he was laughing at himself and shook his head, staring at the family crest in a daze, after a long while, he raised his eyes and looked at Si Tian seriously, word by word: "The first loss of control of the bloodline happened to me, when I was young, I used the evil art from the White Sect to divide the soul Dafa on myself, leaving my soul and soul by Mingxi's side, but it also caused me to become more and more uncontrollable, until ...... The night of the destruction eight years ago. ”

Si Tian had a calm face, even if he had roughly guessed the truth of the matter in his mind, he still didn't want to believe the truth in his heart, just listened quietly, waiting for him to say it himself.

"I killed the whole family. Xiao Yibai only used five words to blurt out the tragic history lightly, he took a sip of wine, and felt a sour feeling in his throat.

Si Tian raised his eyes, there was still a brief blank in his mind, and when he came back to his senses, he found that his hand was actually holding the White Emperor Sword, and Xiao Yibai was still like a plain outsider, without showing the slightest sadness.

Why is it so peaceful? Could it be that the essence of the beast is a cold-blooded monster who is cold and ruthless?

"Feng Ji saved me. Xiao Yibai continued, his tone was still so steady without a trace of waves, "Because the head of Bailing suddenly intervened, even the high-level officials of the imperial capital were reluctant to directly conflict with her, and Mingxi secretly mediated, which forcibly suppressed the turmoil of this matter, I know that the dark department has also been investigating the truth all these years, trying to contain Tianzheng Mansion and Mingxi, but those past events that were burned by the fire of the spirit phoenix will not leave any traces at all, they have been working in vain." ”

"Oh?" Si Tian finally let out a puzzle, and his thoughts and sights gradually became clear, "So what are you showcasing with me for at this time?"

"Because I don't want to waste the marshal's power on the shadows. Xiao Yibai opened his mouth bluntly, and his eyes were suddenly dyed with a trace of horror, "Eight years ago, because of my loss of control, in fact, Qianye in Kunlun, the Central Plains, was seriously affected, and he not only awakened the bloodline of the fierce beast Qiqi, but also completely awakened the original person, didn't you just ask me, why my eyes are the same as my father's, and his eyes are different from ours? ”

"You mean, he ...... Have the power of the Heavenly Realm?" Si Tian's face changed in shock, and his eyes widened in surprise. 5200

"Maybe I should put it another way. Xiao Yibai stood up, his shoulders straightened, and said solemnly, "The Xiao clan is a special alien race, and the Heavenly Realm calls this clan the 'Ancient Race'. ”

Si Tian sat down dejectedly the moment he stood up, pressed his hands on his eyes with all his strength in disbelief, and tried his best to restrain the uncontrollable tremor in his eyes-Ancient Species! It turned out to be Ancient Species! He had privately investigated some things about the First Emperor, and the three words Ancient Seed were both strange and familiar to him, he knew that the people of this clan were related to the broken leylines of Feiyuan, and he didn't know what the First Emperor was looking for them for?

"Let Mingxi explain this part of the matter to you later, maybe you can better understand what the first emperor did. Xiao Yibai seemed to be a little anxious, and he didn't want to bother talking more on this kind of issue, so he continued, "The marshal should have heard that ten days ago, in the first battle of the imperial capital, two gods of the Heavenly Realm came to Feiyuan in person, and almost razed the entire imperial capital to the ground, if it wasn't for the first emperor to detect the secret layout in advance, I'm afraid that the current Tianyu City is already a dead city, but how powerful is the Heavenly Realm, turning over the hands into clouds and covering the hands into rain, such a conspiracy will come a few more times, how long can Feiyuan be safe and stable?"

Si Tian clenched his teeth, Huo Ran changed color, and once again recalled the shocking change ten days ago, the first emperor suddenly died and the crown prince succeeded to the throne without any suspense, all of this seemed to him to be just a long-planned coup d'état, it turned out that there was also the Heavenly Realm involved!

No wonder Xiao Yibai would say that he didn't want to waste his strength on dealing with the dark department, compared to the Heavenly Realm above the distant Nine Heavens, which is related to the survival of the flying wall, what is this kind of internal strife for power in the dark department!

"What do you want me to do?" After a long time, the bearded uncle's eyes in front of him shrank slightly, and his tone actually reproduced the arrogant demeanor of the year, Xiao Yibai nodded, spread his palms in front of him, and said with a wry smile, "I can't hide it, I am not much different from ordinary people now, not to mention protecting Mingxi, I am afraid that it is enough to protect myself, I hope you can stay in Tianyu City, at least to ensure his safety." ”

Si Tian looked meaningfully at his palm, where there was a beam of white spiritual power that could never be gathered, swaying and seeming to collapse at any time.

"For the affairs of the Heavenly Realm and the Dark Realm, Mingxi will have other arrangements. Xiao Yibai added, and before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he saw a sarcastic smile suddenly flowing from the corner of Si Tian's mouth, "The Tianzheng Mansion has been destroyed by you, if the Feng family is also related to the dark department...... Do you want to exterminate the clan yourself?"

"Feng family?" Xiao Yibai's reaction was obviously much more cold than that of his younger brother Xiao Qianye, and there was still an emotionless look in his eyes, and he sneered, "If they really have something to do with the dark department, does the marshal think Mingxi will let them go easily?"

Si Tian was slightly stunned, calmed by his tone, and pursed his lips, even if the internal and external troubles are urgent, with the personality of the new emperor, he should be ruthless to eradicate the dark part and never suffer from future troubles, right?

"Not to mention me, did the Feng family care about my younger brother?" Xiao Yibai chuckled briefly, and was deeply stabbed by some inexplicable emotion for a moment, "As early as when he was studying in the Eighth Hall of the Military Aircraft, the two uncles deliberately alienated and isolated him by using their status as the main lecturer, and what was the reason why the Ordnance Department gave priority to providing a large number of new equipment to the forbidden army? ”

"You hate them so much?" Si Tian looked at him in surprise, this person who had always been cold really showed unprecedented disgust at this moment, and before he even had time to tell him about Feng Siniang, there was already obvious impatience on his face.

"Previously, the first emperor had secretly ordered the arrest of Qianye. Xiao Yibai was suddenly silent for a moment, and just sighed, "The Dengxian Dao near the White Sect sent people from the dark department to plot against him with cartilage poison, and ambushed the white wolf on the Weeping Snow Plateau to kill Huo Cang, and even did not hesitate to poison the innocent fine snow valley to the death of the valley master, and now Qianye still has the wound of that time, it was the controlled Huo Cang who stabbed him through the abdomen, if he didn't have the blessing of the divine power of the heavenly realm, that kind of injury was enough to kill him!"

“......”

Huo Cang also broke an arm because of this, and now he is still healing in Snow City, and the surviving orphan girls in Xixue Valley are also homeless. ”

Si Tian sighed helplessly, and the alien village that was good at brewing wine appeared in front of him, those women who were dead and exposed their bodies were obviously just unarmed ordinary people, Siniang, what kind of hard-hearted people can indulge your subordinates to do that kind of unconscionable thing!

"If the Feng family really has something to do with the dark department, and has even been helping them deal with Qianye ......" Xiao Yibai sneered, showing a disdainful expression, and said viciously, "Then they should be glad that I had an accident and became an ordinary person now, otherwise if it falls into my hands, I will ask them to repay it tenfold and hundredfold!"

Si Tian's awe-inspiring expression was also startled by the hatred on his face, Xiao Yibai interrupted his thoughts, his voice gradually sharpened, and continued: "Also, some experimental subjects have been detained in the shadows, and their whereabouts are still unknown, and there are some tricky aliens among them. ”

"Oh?" Si Tian's eyes sank, there were indeed only women in that alien village, and men, old people, and children were all gone.

"Do you know why Mingxi kept Governor Gao and didn't make a move?" Xiao Yibai opened his mouth with a complicated expression, "It's because of that group of unaccounted test subjects, you may not know what kind of monsters they are, the Lingyin clan who escaped from the King Binding Water Prison before can even destroy the North Shore City Sky End Water Prison with their own strength, causing the Sea Demon Cang Shark to escape and hundreds of thousands of people to die, if there are a few more dangerous and uncontrollable test subjects like this, you should know what the consequences will be." ”

"So I must have someone strong and trustworthy enough to stay in the imperial capital to protect him. Xiao Yibai clenched his fists hard, a little resentful, but Si Tian instantly sensed the deep meaning hidden in this sentence, and said in a low voice, "Stay in the imperial capital...... You asked me to stay in the imperial capital? Isn't the person who should stay in the imperial capital the most at this time your brother?"

"He?" Xiao Yibai smiled and calmed down, "He has more important things to do, and he should be leaving soon." ”

Si Tian looked at him suspiciously, but after all, he didn't ask—at this time, could there be something more important than protecting the imperial capital?" He thought about it for a while, and felt that there was something else hidden in this matter, and asked with a serious expression: "If you tell me these things, will I definitely agree to it if you calculate it accurately, or are you not afraid that I will refuse at all?"

"Neither. Xiao Yibai shrugged his shoulders and toasted him with a wine glass, "Frankly speaking, without Mingxi's permission, I usually wouldn't say these things to outsiders, but I'm willing to gamble, you are indeed someone I trust from the bottom of my heart." ”

"A waste uncle like me, who is addicted to alcohol, what made you have such an illusion?" Si Tian muttered in his mouth, but he also poured himself wine in his hand, and saluted him back.

He drank the wine in his hand, and a sense of pride suddenly rose in his chest, and he looked at the other party with a sigh...... The person in front of him is really like Xiao Lingyun back then, with a deep hidden vigor and resoluteness in his sleek manners, he can't see the end at a glance, but it makes people feel inexplicably trusted, but his younger brother with different gold and silver eyes makes people feel even more strange and frightened.

Si Tian gritted his teeth, Xiao Qianye had divine power from the Heavenly Realm, no wonder there was always a strange gaze flashing in his eyes, was it really someone who had awakened in the depths of his body? But this kind of divine power that does not belong to the human world, is it a blessing or a curse?
