Seeing this scene, all the disciples left quickly one by one. The ancestor had just left seclusion, so he must have a lot of things he wanted to know. It is normal for him to have a lot to say to his master.
Then Wang Ping bent down and cupped his hands and said: "Old Ancestor...Master, I will go and get started first."
The other disciples also followed suit, each with an expression of respect. Xiao Han felt quite pleased that many of these people had now reached the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, or even the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment.
On the other hand, Xiao Qian was only in the middle stage of foundation building, but he didn't show any disrespect. Judging from Xiao Qian's appearance, these people were not showing off in front of him.
Everyone was speaking carefully, for fear that any words would touch Xiao Qian's sad mood.
If this is the case, it is worth his careful cultivation and spending some energy. Whoever remains today is not someone who has lived through life and death together.
After nodding one by one, Xiao Han looked at Xiao Qian and said, "Find a secret room where you can retreat."
Xiao Qian didn't ask any questions, but quietly led Xiao Han to a place where the environment was quiet and the layout was neat without losing the natural beauty.
The clean environment shows that this place is frequently cleaned. Xiao Qian looked at his ancestor and said, "Grandpa, this is the room and retreat place prepared for you."
Xiao Han didn't talk nonsense, nodded and said: "Come in with me!"
Pushing open the door, Xiao Han was very satisfied with the layout inside. It could be said that there was no choice. Xiao Han didn't ask whether it was originally like this or if it was decorated later, but I guess the city lord wouldn't decorate this place as a place for female cultivators!
It was originally designed to confuse everyone, so Xiao Han quickly explored the secret room of the retreat.
In the secret room, Xiao Han sat cross-legged on the ground and said, "Oh, you can tell me what happened in the past few years. I just want to hear the most important things."
Xiao Qian obviously guessed this and said: "Some big things happened. I don't know what Grandpa wants to know, so I will describe them all."
"I feel that the most important thing is the ancient secret realms. After the first batch of ancient secret realms appeared, another batch of ancient secret realms appeared in the past few years."
"After research, we found that as long as you go in and explore the ancient secret realms, they will eventually turn into an abyss, while those ancient secret realms that have not been explored will remain the same."
"At first, those sects couldn't bear the temptation and went to investigate one by one. In the end, they gained gratifying results, but then all the nearby sects were wiped out."
"The abyss seems to be very measured. It only erodes a certain area. When it reaches a certain area, the gray mist will no longer spread."
"After all these things happened, Wan Zongcheng and Xuantian Palace jointly came forward to prohibit all sects from developing the ancient secret realm. Once discovered, they would be attacked by a group. The situation has become much better."
"Relevant to this matter are the ghosts that came out of the abyss. The human race has also captured a lot of ghosts, but as long as these ghosts leave the scope of the gray mist, they will die quickly."
"Especially those with low strength will die immediately as soon as they leave the gray mist range. Those with high strength can persist for a while, but they will eventually die."
"After various investigations and interrogations, I only know that these demons come from a world called the dark world, not the so-called spiritual world."
"The most important thing is that there are humans and human monks there, but they are enslaved by the demons. They are the lowest level race in the dark world."
"They were even kept in captivity and used as food."
"As for the rest of the specific things, that's all I've inquired about. There are still some secrets that haven't been released. I think the senior monks don't want everyone to know."
After listening to what Xiao Qian said, Xiao Han's brows knitted together with a solemn expression. This so-called dark world must be very powerful, and there are also human races. According to ancient books, these human races should have gone to the so-called "Spirit Realm".
"Boundary" group.
I just don’t know why, but then the entrance to the “spirit world” was closed, and they eventually became slaves because they couldn’t resist the evil spirits. This legend of the so-called “spirit world” remained.
Wherever the spiritual world is, it is clearly a place full of evil, and its level is higher than that of the Tianxuan Realm. Both in terms of strength and energy similar to "spiritual energy", it is stronger than the Tianxuan Realm.
Based on the fact that spiritual power could also be absorbed in the gray mist before, Xiao Han knew that the two types of energy were essentially the same, but there might be some slight differences in their external form and characteristics.
Then there is the question of why the entrance to the dark world appears in the Tianxuan world, or why the demons from the dark world come to the Tianxuan world. Xiao Han also has some guesses, maybe there is something wrong with the dark world.
These monsters need to find another world to live in. It is obviously impossible to simply plunder the resources of Tianxuan Realm, or to take a fancy to the racial creatures here.
Xiao Han speculated quickly in his mind, but said: "Hey, go on, are there any other more important things?"
Seeing Grandpa Zu come back to his senses, Xiao Qian paused and continued: "The second thing is that Wan Zong City established a sect called Wan Zongmen. It is no longer just a city, but has become something like a super city.
The existence of a top sect.”
"And we have also reached some kind of cooperation with Xuantian Palace, but I don't know the specific content."
Then Xiao Qian talked about several major events that happened recently, but none of them interested Xiao Han until Xiao Qian said: "I don't know whether it is a big event or not. There are always some people asking about you, Grandpa Zu.
"
"The relationship between the city lord and us has always been a secret. He only gave us this small courtyard because of your great contributions, Grandpa."
"Then a deputy city lord helped briefly investigate the matter, and finally found a common ground."
"Then those who are asking about Grandpa Zu's death are all acquainted with Liuyun Sect."
"But there has been no actual evidence to prove anything, so no measures have been taken against these people."
"So much so that none of us have left Wanzong City in the past few years, or even left the fifth district."
What Xiao Qian said was that he actually had a guess in his heart, but he did not express his guess, which would affect Grandpa Zu's judgment.
When Xiao Han heard this, an answer emerged in his mind. Even if Headmaster Han wanted to inquire about himself, he could contact him through Qin Ming.
However, I haven't received a message from Qin Ming during this period, and the message formation in the message card left behind has not been used a few times.
This message board is not permanent. Qin Ming will never send a message to him if there is no important matter.
After eliminating all possibilities, the only thing left is the Great Elder, whose purpose of investigating himself is clearly visible, and must have paid some price in order to secretly obliterate him.
Of course, the most important reason for not taking any action is that he is not aware of his relationship with the city lord. There are also many rumors. These Nascent Soul stage monks will also weigh it and analyze the pros and cons.
Wu Feng really challenged his bottom line, and the anger in Xiao Han's heart gradually emerged. If there were not more important things at the moment, I might not be able to help but go back and kill him now.
