Xiao Fengqing slowly opened his eyes, glanced at the two of them, and slowly spoke with a kind look. "You're all grown up, it's time to go out. ”

As soon as the two of them heard this, their faces immediately showed complicated colors, some sadness, some reluctance, some worries, some excitement, some excitement, as if they were wanderers who were about to leave home for the first time, full of curiosity about the outside world, but full of nostalgia for the harbor of home.

"Qingyun, grandpa will send you to the Thunder Immortal Sect tomorrow to cultivate, and the future path will depend on you. Xiaoyuan, Grandpa originally wanted to send you to the Thunder Immortal Sect with Qingyun, but you have your own path to follow, so let it be, I hope your choice is correct. ”

Xiao Fengqing quietly watched the expressions on the faces of the three of them change, and then slowly said a word, which immediately made Qiao Yuan and Xiao Qingyun's expressions change greatly.

Although he had expected to leave Qingfeng Village, he didn't expect that this day would be tomorrow, and even Xiao Qingyun, who had always been cynical, showed a strong reluctance.

Qiao Yuan was silent, he had asked Xiao Fengqing to talk about the way forward, and Xiao Fengqing also indicated that he would send him to the Thunder Immortal Sect, but Qiao Yuan refused.

He had promised to go to the Hidden Immortal Sect to find Ming Ruo, although he didn't know where the Hidden Immortal Sect was now, Xiao Fengqing didn't tell him, and also warned him not to go if he didn't have enough cultivation.

He decided to go out and sharpen it, as for what sect to join in the future, it depends on the chance, he knows that the sect that Grandpa Xiao sent them to can be guaranteed safely.

But he knew his own qualifications, even if he went to the Thunder Immortal Sect, he would definitely not be taken seriously, so what was the point of going to the Thunder Immortal Sect.

And Qiao Yuan has lived in Qingfeng Village since he was a child, and he has never seen the outside world, he wants to take a look and break through, this is his greatest wish.

"Xiaoyuan, haven't you always wanted to know your background? Grandpa once promised you that he could tell you when you are sixteen years old, do you still want to know now?"

Xiao Fengqing withdrew his gaze from the window, turned his gaze to look at Qiao Yuan, and his eyes revealed a thick unbearable color without concealment.

Qiao Yuan hadn't asked or thought about this question for a long time, but he didn't expect that Xiao Fengqing would take the initiative to tell him this time.

In fact, according to his original thoughts, he didn't want to know, after all, what could he do if he knew, he thought in his heart that his parents had abandoned him ruthlessly, so he had nothing to do with them anymore, and his relatives were only people from Qingfeng Village.

But when he saw the thick unbearable look in Xiao Fengqing's eyes, there was a bad guess in his heart, which even made his heart sting slightly, and he nodded silently, wanting to confirm the guess in his heart.

"Grandpa can't tell you much because of the oath he made back then, but one thing can tell you is that your parents sent you to Qingfeng Village to protect you. ”

Xiao Fengqing said slowly, with a look of remembrance in his eyes.

"Grandpa Xiao, I want to ask...... They...... Right now...... Are you still alive?"

Qiao Yuan heard Xiao Fengqing's words and guessed more in his heart, his expression sank, and his words trembled a little, and he asked intermittently.

"Well, Grandpa didn't know if they were still alive. ”

Xiao Fengqing looked at Qiao Yuan's face, shook his head and said with a light sigh.

Qiao Yuan saw Xiao Fengqing's expression, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but he also knew that this matter was by no means so simple, he was too weak, even if he knew, there was no way, and he silently swore in his heart that he would investigate this matter in the future.

He pondered for a while, his expression solemn, and his voice was still a little trembling as he asked.

"Grandpa Xiao, they ...... What kind of person is it?"

"Your father was strong, he became famous at a young age, he was heroic, and he almost swept away the younger generation of that generation. And your mother was the only nun of that generation who could match your father's. ”

Xiao Fengqing's eyes were even more remembrance, and then he looked at Qiao Yuan, as if he wanted to find the shadow of the person in his memory from his body.

Although his words were not much, both Qiao Yuan and Xiao Qingyun heard the meaning of praise, this kind of praise was very different from Xiao Fengqing's praise for them, both in tone and expression, it was solemn.

Qiao Yuan heard Xiao Fengqing's words and saw his expression, but he didn't show the slightest joy.

Even if his parents swept the world and were invincible in the world, what could they do, but they couldn't even protect their own son, and they had to entrust it to others to protect, what a great irony, Xiao Fengqing's words fell on Qiao Yuan's ears, but he heard a ridiculous meaning.

"Xiaoyuan, don't blame them. With great power comes great responsibility, and they have their unshirkable responsibilities. Grandpa hopes that you can understand how any parent in the world would be willing to abandon their child, if it is not for life and death, if it is not for the inability to preserve, how can they hand over their child to others. ”

Xiao Fengqing saw Qiao Yuan's face, as if he could see the thoughts in his heart at a glance, sighed secretly in his heart, and slowly opened his mouth to comfort him very softly.

"Grandpa Xiao, what is their responsibility, who is my enemy?"

Qiao Yuan heard Xiao Fengqing's shock, the stinging pain in his heart was even more, and he had some self-blame, his mind has always been very clear, through Xiao Fengqing's words, he has analyzed some things, but his strength is still too weak, even if he knows, he is still powerless.

"They want to protect the family, back then your family and the Xiao family were both world-famous Xiuzhen families. Alas, the past is gone, and it's all smoke............"

"Your enemy is very powerful, even if you know about your current cultivation, there is nothing you can do, and when your cultivation is enough in the future, grandpa will tell you. ”

Xiao Fengqing's eyes were even more reminiscent, and he sighed lightly halfway through his words and refused to continue, but his face showed a look of grief and indignation, and everything he expressed had made Qiao Yuan clear and clear.

Xiao Qingyun lowered his head expressionlessly, and slowly clenched his fists, as if he already knew everything.

Qiao Yuan's face showed the same look of grief and indignation, his fists clenched, and he blamed himself more in his heart.

"Grandpa Xiao, Xiaoyuan understands that Xiaoyuan's responsibility Xiaoyuan will not shirk. One day, Xiao Yuan will slash the enemy, even if he is far stronger than I imagined, but if he can cultivate to that extent, Xiao Yuan will definitely be able to cultivate to that extent. ”

Qiao Yuan stood up, his eyes flashed with a strange light, his face was solemn and serious, his words were sonorous like hitting a rock, and every word and sentence revealed a strong sense of firmness.

Xiao Qingyun raised his head and looked at Qiao Yuan and smiled, his hands slowly loosened, but the firmness in his eyes did not decrease in the slightest.

Xiao Fengqing also nodded to Qiao Yuan, showing a smile of appreciation and encouragement, and was very satisfied with Qiao Yuan at this moment.

"Xiaoyuan, you can think so much to make grandpa very happy, but the strength of the enemy is not something you can imagine, this is not something you have to think about now, the road has to be taken step by step, and cultivation is also step by step, grandpa doesn't want you to wear the shackles of hatred, I only hope that you can take this as a warning and will not waste your cultivation." ”

After Xiao Fengqing waited for Qiao Yuan to sit down, he looked at him with extremely soft eyes, said with a kind smile on his face, and looked at Xiao Qingyun and Xiao Qingxuan as he spoke.

"Grandpa Xiao, Xiao Yuan also knows that his cultivation is too weak, and some words may be a little naïve and ignorant, but Xiao Yuan only said this once, and he will never mention half a sentence in the future, just remember it in his heart. Qiao Yuan was silent for a while after listening to Xiao Fengqing's words, and then slowly spoke, although his words were light, his serious look and gaze overshadowed his words.

Xiao Fengqing nodded after hearing Qiao Yuan and didn't say anything more, but the look of relief on his face was even stronger.

He swept his gaze over the two of them, and finally fell on Qiao Yuan's body, among the three, he was most worried about Qiao Yuan, his qualifications were the worst, his cultivation was the lowest, and he had to wander alone as a casual cultivator.

Xiao Fengqing pondered this matter several times, and he was always a little relieved, but every time he proposed it, he was rejected by Qiao Yuan, after all, with Qiao Yuan's qualifications, even if he entered the Thunder Immortal Sect, he would not be valued and respected, so it was better to let him go his own way outside, and maybe he could meet some opportunities for creation.

As for Xiao Qingyun, although he was worried, he didn't have much, after all, his qualifications were against the sky, and he must be a key cultivator in the Thunder Immortal Sect, and the only thing he was worried about was his temperament.

"Grandpa Xiao, Xiao Yuan has a few questions to ask, what is the Dust Tree Realm, and what is the use of this stone?"

Xiao Fengqing was pondering when he suddenly heard Qiao Yuan's words, and then saw that he took out a small gray stone from his arms, this small stone was plain, just like the pebbles in the river.

Xiao Qingyun heard Qiao Yuan's words, and saw that the stone he took out also showed interest, and looked at Xiao Fengqing expectantly.

"Didn't grandpa tell you that this stone should not be held in front of everyone, not even Qingyun, so put it away quickly. ”

Xiao Fengqing's words remembered in Qiao Yuan's mind, and there was a stern look in his words, which made Qiao Yuan's heart suddenly shocked, and he put away the small stone without thinking too much.

Xiao Qingyun didn't know why he didn't hear Xiao Fengqing say a word, and suddenly Qiao Yuan's face became very solemn, and he put away the stone in his hand. Then Xiao Fengqing said with a casual look.

"You can see the pine tree outside the house, it is the Dust Tree Realm, it is a treasure of the space formation refined by grandpa in the early years, and the formation is forbidden to build the space and merge into it, which is very secret and safe. ”

Xiao Fengqing didn't say much, but Qiao Yuan and Xiao Qingyun were dumbfounded when they heard it, the dust tree realm was actually the old pine tree outside the house.

"Qingyun, you go out first, grandpa has something to explain to Xiaoyuan alone. ”

Xiao Fengqing's expression did not show the slightest abnormality, and he said slowly to Xiao Qingyun.

As soon as Xiao Qingyun heard this, he stood up, patted Qiao Yuan on the shoulder without saying anything, and walked out slowly.

"Xiaoyuan, this stone is called Jubao Mixed Yuan Jade, it is the treasure of the emperor, it has been missing for many years, and the piece in your hand is just a very small fragment. ”

"What is the main function of Jubao mixed jade, grandpa doesn't know, but I heard that it has the effect of absorbing the spirit of all things in heaven and earth, gathering the treasures of the four seas and eight wildernesses, and no one knows the specific usage, although this piece in your hand is broken, it still has some effects. Grandpa can arrange some prohibitions for this stone, so that it can exert some spirit gathering effects, which will be of great benefit to your cultivation. ”

As soon as the two of them walked out of the door, Xiao Fengqing waved his sleeves and asked Qiao Yuan to take out the small stone, Xiao Fengqing held the small stone and said.

After speaking, his right hand counted in the void, pinched out a few strange seals, hit the small stone, and then took out a black brocade bag and put it up, and handed it to Qiao Yuan.

"This stone can now absorb the surrounding spiritual energy, and you can take this stone out and hold it in your hand when you are cultivating, which can speed up the speed at which you can breathe out spiritual energy. When you don't use this stone to cultivate, you can put it in this bag to ensure that this thing will not be discovered by others. ”
