"Alas......" Shang Hong sighed for a while, then sorted out his thoughts and said slowly.

"I thought that this matter had already been settled since the woman left, but I didn't expect that I still didn't cut off contact with my Shang clan, maybe this is fate."

When he said this, Shang Hong's face was full of helplessness, and there was a trace of imperceptible anxiety.

"My Shang clan started through the trade between the elves and the human race, about three hundred and seventy years ago, when your grandfather was still young, he was in charge of the family's trade between the elven clan Tanaro City and the human race Star Moon City. But one day, your grandfather suddenly brought back a seriously injured woman, I was too young to know anything, but after your grandfather brought back the woman, he ordered the mouth to be sealed, and only a few people knew about this woman.

At that time, all the people of the Chamber of Commerce who were escorting the goods were all transferred out of the territory of Star Moon City and headed for Kena City. After the woman recovered, she stayed in the Shang Mansion for a few days, and I was still a little kid at that time, calling my sister to play with her.

After a short stay of a few days, she left. After she left, your grandfather replaced all the maid guards in the house within a year. Shut up about it.

If that's the case, I won't remember anything, but in the following decades, your grandfather asked the Shang clan to quietly withdraw from all the chambers of commerce in the demon clan. Knowing that your grandfather was on his deathbed, he asked us to restore these chambers of commerce.

At first, everyone couldn't understand it, but because of your grandfather's status as the patriarch, he had to comply. I was also at the beginning, and I couldn't understand what your grandfather did.

It wasn't until your grandfather confided in me the inside story of this one day that I understood your grandfather. At that time, your grandfather was holding this portrait, and I still remember what I said to me very clearly

"Hong'er, you all think I'm confused, but I'm doing this to protect the Shang family." Grandpa Tai saw that the girl was seriously injured and asked me for help, how could he bear it, but when I brought her out of the vast forest, I realized that she was from the Eastern Star Dragon Clan, and it was Aiger's Necromantic Holy Demon Guide who seriously injured her. Insert this kind of power struggle, if I don't do this, if it is known, the Shang clan will be finished!'

This continent, after all, is magic standing at the top. A merchant family like ours looks extremely glamorous, but when it comes to these two forces, it's nothing!"

When Shang Hong said this, he was full of helplessness. The Five Domains Realm has always been a world of magic, and those who stand at the top of this world have been those who have strong magic since ancient times, which is why the Shang family attaches so much importance to Shang Hao and is so happy about Shang Hao's magical talent.

Shang Hong sorted out his thoughts for a while, and then opened his mouth and began to introduce this past to Shang Hao.

"Your grandfather called me alone on his deathbed and told me that only I know about this matter, and the merchant does not need a third party to know, so your father saw this painting when they were sorting out your grandfather's relics, but they didn't know any news about this painting.

We are just an ordinary family chamber of commerce, and we don't want to be involved in the confrontation of these top magical forces, Hao'er, since you have taken out this painting now, there are some things that Uncle will tell you.

You Uncle Carlo, you are kind to our Shang family, we will always remember, but we can't tie the fate of the entire Shang family to him, your father said, you want to know about Carlo's past, he doesn't stop you, Carlo gave you a second life, you do this, it is right.

But don't blame the uncle for being ruthless, saying such a thing, for the sake of the Shang family, I have to say this, even if your father is here, he will not refute me.

If one day, you get involved in the disputes of these top magical forces for the sake of Carlo's affairs, our Shang clan will remove you. The strife of magical forces, death is only a matter of moments, and an ordinary family like ours really wants a powerful magician to shelter us, but we don't want to compete with these forces, we just want to live such a peaceful life. ”

Although Shang Hong's words were very heavy, Shang Hao could understand the uncle's thoughts, and he also knew that if there was really such a day, Shang Hao himself would break away from the Shang family.

His own affairs, his own resistance, will never affect the Shang family, a thousand-year-old business family, should not and cannot participate in the battle of these magical forces.

But he is different, he is from the Shang clan, but his life comes from Carlo, Carlo's past, he must understand, if Carlo has an unfulfilled wish, Shang Hao will do his best to help him complete it.

"Uncle, I understand you, don't worry." Shang Hao nodded heavily and promised Shang Hong.

"Hao'er, Uncle has also lived for more than three hundred years, and I have seen a lot over the years, judging from the fact that Carlo, who has an old relationship with Dongxingxue, and his performance in coming to my business to save you and teach you magic knowledge. Carlo is by no means an ordinary elf, and the things he is involved in will not be small, if you can, listen to the uncle's advice, and don't pursue his affairs, okay?"

When Shang Hong said this, his eyes were full of hope, and what he thought was also what Shang Qian thought.

"Uncle, I understand. It's just that there is one thing you don't know, the origin of my life comes from Uncle Carlo, and there is the breath of Uncle Carlo on it, which cannot be eliminated. Even if I don't actively pursue Uncle Carlo's past, then I will always have to hide for the rest of my life. Besides, the situation in the Five Domains Realm, presumably from the perspective of the merchants, the uncle should also know a little. At this time, if we do not rise to the challenge, we may be completely drowned in the torrent of this troubled world."

Shang Hao understands Shang Hong's concerns, but in the past fifteen years, Shang Hao has accepted Carlo's knowledge and Carlo's vision. Shang Hao's views on these things are even more distant.

Shang Hao never felt that he was able to enter Tianfeng Academy and have teammates like Huang Tianyang and Xiao Qi because of his strong talent. His previous talent, he knew in his heart, was very different from Huang Tianyang and Xiao Qi's talent. Although it seems that Carlo has lived in the Shang Mansion for 15 years and rarely goes out except for taking Shang Hao out to travel, Carlo has paved the way ahead for Shang Hao.

From Caton to Merlin, these are the guarantees that Carlo has done for Shang Hao. Carlo provided Shang Hao with these, and how far he could go was up to Shang Hao himself, especially after the Nymph was handed over to Shang Hao to take care of, Shang Hao had to take this road. And if he wants to protect the Nymph and himself, Shang Hao must also become stronger, and understanding Carlo's past is obviously a better choice than blindly escaping.

"Forget it, Uncle won't stop you, I just hope you can understand these things. I'm also tired, Shang Ming, you send Hao'er back first, I should also rest, people are old, it's useless" Shang Hong said as he got up and walked towards the house.

"Xiao Hao, I'll send you back first, my father's temper, you know, don't care" Shang Ming said slightly apologetically.

"It's okay, Brother Shang Ming, I know that the uncle is for my good, I can go back by myself, you don't have to send me, I'll go first" Shang Hao said, he also got up and walked out, originally found the portrait of Dong Xingxue, Shang Hao felt that he was beginning to understand Carlo's past, but at the beginning, it was already like this, and after that, I don't know who else will stop him.

Looking at the back of Shang Hao leaving, Shang Ming shook his head helplessly. "Who is not a businessman, they are all so stubborn, who can persuade anyone" Thinking like this, Shang Ming also got up and returned to his house.
