Chapter 40 The Fall of a Genius

"What? You said that your elder brother's lineage was wiped out?"

After learning the reason for the incident, Mr. Xiao suddenly became furious. His already old face had a few more wrinkles.

"Yes. And... I heard that my brother's death is terrible..." Xiao Kun knelt in front of Old Xiao, unable to raise his head, as if it was his fault.

Old Xiao sighed and said, "Forget it, you have no fault. If your elder brother dies... by the way, how about the Daxia Dynasty... those army of the devastated nations?"

Upon hearing this, the commander stepped forward and replied, "Thank you, Mr. Xiao, for your concern. We are still here. We have no different intentions to serve our country's kindness."

"Are you... the commander?" Old Xiao looked at it carefully, then his eyes dazzled, and slowly closed his eyes, looking up at the sky, not knowing what he was praying for.

After a long time, he slowly said, "My words are not directed at you, but you are the commander of your cultivation. This army is in name only."

"Old Xiao... No, Zhuo Yiling, the daughter of the National Guardian Army, was the position of General of Zhuo Yiling, who had a shadow of the National Guardian Army, back then. But..." The commander thought about it and did not say the following words.

He originally wanted to say that, however, some changes have occurred in recent days, but due to the current atmosphere, he did not speak out.

"Oh?" Old Xiao quickly got up, "As it happens, I must go and pay a visit in person in the future."

Then, Old Xiao slapped his head, "Oh, I care about state affairs and almost forgot about family affairs. Xiao Kun, haven't asked just now, are your elder brother's lineage survivors? Xuan'er and Qian'er... Are there any news

?”

However, after hearing Qian'er, namely Xiao Tingqian, everyone in the Xiao family was silent. Because Xiao Tingqian's strength was not high, or Xiao Tingxuan's light was too strong, they would always ignore Xiao Tingqian.

Even this time, there was no news about Xiao Tingqian.

"This..." Xiao Kun said softly, "Father, you'd better take a look at Xuan'er first."

So everyone took Old Xiao to Xiao Tingxuan. However, seeing Xiao Tingxuan's performance and the sense of fear that had been engraved into his bone marrow, Old Xiao had already roughly understood something.

Seeing his grandson like this, Mr. Xiao finally couldn't help but burst into tears. Then, he hurriedly asked: "Where is Qian'er? How is Qian'er?"

Now, Xiao Kun could not hide it from his father and said, "Qian'er's child is not strong, so we have not paid too much attention. I guess he died there together."

"Isn't it strong?" Old Xiao's face changed drastically: "Has Qian'er had any accidents when I was in seclusion?"

"Accident?" This made everyone a little confused. Xiao Kun took the lead and asked, "We have never heard of any major accident in Qian'er?"

"How could that happen?" Old Xiao stared at Xiao Tingxuan and said, "It seems that Xuan'er should have reached the level of Martial Master before his cultivation was abolished. Even Xuan'er is like this. Qian'er, who has a hundred times more talent, should be

Have you reached the realm of Martial Saint?"

After a word, everyone was silent. Everyone wondered if their ears were heard wrong.

Then, Mr. Xiao sighed and said, "I care about them. In addition to family affection, I am more important to make contributions to the revival of the Daxia Dynasty. Only by cultivating them well,

Only then can I repay the country’s kindness.”

"Dad, what you just said..." Xiao Kun stepped forward and interrupted, "Did you remember wrongly? Qian'er's talent is simply impossible to compare with Xuan'er. Now, I remember Qian'er's strength, but

Just a talented Wuzong..."

"Mr. Wu Zong?" Old Xiao suddenly became excited, "Impossible, how could Qian'er be?"

With the help of everyone, Mr. Xiao finally calmed down and then said: "When I was in seclusion, my two children were still young. In order not to discourage Xuan'er's confidence as his brother, I concealed something. Not only that,

I also whispered to your elder brother that you can focus on cultivating Xuan'er."

"What?" Everyone was shocked again. You know, the Xiao family leader is no longer a focus on training, and Qian'er is not even allowed to come into contact with cultivation.

Even so, Qian'er reached the realm of Wuzong... without any resources.

So Xiao Kun told the truth with trembling fear.

"... Moreover, the elder brother also has his own reasons... At that time, I proposed to the elder brother. But the elder brother said that the destruction of the country is imminent. Therefore, the Xiao family must use all the resources to cultivate a person.

...The Xiao family can no longer support the second person..."

"This... a rebellious son!" Old Xiao slapped his thigh hard, with tears flowing and a ferocious face. Then, he kept slapping himself in the face, "Blame me... blame me, he was for the sake of the Daxia Dynasty after all.

If I had made a mistake, if it weren't for me...If I hadn't made it clear, I wouldn't have let a peerless genius die."

Seeing this, Xiao Kun hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Mr. Xiao's hand: "Dad, stop quickly. It's not your fault, nor the eldest brother's fault... but this fate is too frustrated..."

"Oh..." Old Xiao lowered his head and knelt on the ground. "Qian'er's talent is a peerless genius that the Xiao family has not appeared in hundreds of years. Just like that... it's just gone..."

Immediately, Xiao Kun quickly said to the crowd, "Hurry, go and look for Qian'er, live to see people, die to see corpses! Hurry, go!"

"Wait..." Old Xiao stood up slowly, "I want to go with you, too, to see if I can find any clues."

"When it comes to clues..." Xiao Kun took out the portrait, "When Xuan'er was discovered, he held this portrait in his hand. We guess that this is the clue left by Xuan'er before he went crazy."

"Oh?" Old Xiao suddenly took the portrait and looked at it, shook his head.

"This... this portrait?" The commander next to him was suddenly shocked after seeing the portrait, "Can you please let me see it?"

After taking the portrait, the commander looked back and forth several times. He was even more sure that this person would not read it wrong, just melody, or... the prince...

But due to the scene, the commander saluted everyone, "This person is still in seclusion in our army and recuperate."

"What?" Old Xiao was shocked when he heard this, "Is this a man in the army?"

"Not counting..." The commander paused and replied: "I am not convenient to say about this matter. You can come to the army in the future and find the general directly."

"Okay." Old Xiao sighed, "As it happens, let's go to your elder brother's place first."

...

In the dark night, a figure sat in a corner without any trace. Suddenly, he laughed evilly.
