Hearing the strange words coming out of Xun'er's mouth, and looking at the shock on her cheeks, Xiao Yan frowned slightly, clasped the warm and mysterious ancient jade in his hand, and said, "Do you know this person?"
thing?"
Taking a deep breath of the cold air, the expression on Xun'er's cheeks changed. After a long time, she gritted her silver teeth, walked quickly to Xiao Yan, and whispered: "Brother Xiao Yan, this jade, you
Where did you get it?"
"When the family moved, the elders gave it to me and asked me to keep it." Xiao Yan looked at Xun'er's strange look, frowned a little deeper, and said in a deep voice: "What's wrong?"
"It turns out that this is it... The part of the key that the Xiao family holds, it turns out to be the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade..." Xun'er stared closely at the ancient jade in Xiao Yan's hand, and thoughts in her heart surged like a tide.
, after a long while, she slowly closed her eyes, and when she opened them immediately, the shock in her eyes had gradually faded away.
"Brother Xiao Yan, please don't show this Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade in front of anyone in the future. Remember, it's anyone!" Xun'er held Xiao Yan's palm tightly, with an unprecedented solemn expression on her cheeks.
"Although there may only be a very few people on this continent who know this thing, if others find out that you are carrying the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade, I am afraid that you will be killed immediately, and even... even this Canaan Academy,
You might get jealous and take action." Xun'er said in a very low voice, as if she was afraid of being overheard.
Seeing Xun'er's solemn look, Xiao Yan's face became much more solemn. Holding this mysterious ancient jade in his hand, a faint warmth emanated from it, making him stay calm at all times. He nodded.
He whispered: "Why is this thing called Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade? Isn't it a symbol of my status as the head of the Xiao family?"
Xun'er nodded slightly and said softly: "After such a long time, perhaps no one in the Xiao family knows the details of this jade, so they just regard it as a token of the patriarch according to word of mouth, and give a little soul mark to it.
Store it so that the tribesmen can know the life and death of the tribe leader at any time."
"Then what is its origin? Listening to what you said, this so-called Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade seems to be an extremely remarkable thing? How could it be in my Xiao family?" Xiao Yan asked in a deep voice.
"It's more than amazing..." He smiled bitterly in his heart, but Xun'er shook his head: "Brother Xiao Yan, for some reasons, I can't tell you too many things now, otherwise, it won't be of any benefit to you.
If you believe Xun'er, then listen to me once and don't show this jade in front of anyone in the future!"
His brows furrowed into a line, Xiao Yan looked at Xun'er's slightly pleading face. After a moment, his heart softened and he could only sigh and nodded. He turned his hand and took the mysterious piece of ancient jade into his pocket.
Within the precepts.
Seeing Xiao Yan put the ancient jade away, Xun'er breathed a sigh of relief and said softly: "Brother Xiao Yan, take good care of it. Although the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade in your hand is not complete, it is also hidden.
It has extremely huge energy and magical effects, but so far, the elders of the Xiao family have only developed this trivial function of storing soul marks. In the future, maybe it will be of great help to you."
Xiao Yan nodded slightly and stared at Xun'er with burning eyes. For a moment, the two of them suddenly fell silent.
Being made a little uncomfortable by this silent atmosphere, especially under Xiao Yan's scorching gaze, Xun'er couldn't help but feel a wry smile in her heart, sighed, raised her head and looked directly at Xiao Yan, and said softly: "
Brother Xiao Yan, I have indeed concealed a lot of things, but I believe Xun'er, it will never do you any harm..."
"Believe me, as long as Brother Xiao Yan has the strength to compete with the Yunlan Sect, I will tell you everything, including the power behind Xun'er and the relationship with the Xiao family."
Staring at Xun'er closely, after a long while, Xiao Yan nodded slowly, rubbed Xun'er's head with his palms, and said in a low voice: "Okay, I'll wait for the day when you give me all your love." After that,
, he turned around first and walked straight down the stairs.
Looking at Xiao Yan's back disappearing at the stairs, Xun'er smiled bitterly again, gritted her silver teeth and whispered: "Oh, forget it, don't worry about the clan's mission anymore, let me take it from brother Xiao Yan
"Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade", I can't do it... Anyway, no one else knows about it, and no one in the clan would have guessed that it would be in the hands of Brother Xiao Yan."
...
In the dark room, the faint moonlight swayed in from the window, illuminating the room a little hazy.
Xiao Yan sat cross-legged on the bed, his soul power burst out of his body with all his strength, and his soul perception wrapped the room inside and outside. Every darkness in the room was searched back and forth, and
After being so cautious for nearly ten minutes, Xiao Yan flicked the black ring. Suddenly, a ray of light shot out, and after a moment, it condensed into an old figure.
"Teacher..." Seeing Yao Lao's figure, Xiao Yan moved his mouth. Just as he was about to speak, Yao Lao waved his hand and muttered: "I know you want to ask about the "Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade"
, but even I have only vaguely heard of this thing, but I have never seen it..."
Hearing this, Xiao Yan was a little disappointed and asked tentatively: "Does the teacher know what this is?"
"What I can tell you is that this Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade may have some relationship with the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor thousands of years ago..." Yao Lao was silent for a long time and then said slowly.
"Emperor Tuoshe?"
Xiao Yan was startled and muttered the name again. After a moment, he said with some confusion: "Is it a person?"
"Maybe it's not an exaggeration to call him a god." Yao Lao sighed, with an inexplicable awe in his tone.
His heart was shocked, and Xiao Yan's throat rolled. He naturally knew that there were no gods in the world. If there were, they were just some creatures who had cultivated their fighting spirit to the peak level that could compete with the world.
"Could he...he be...a Dou Di?"
The last two words, there was a bit of trembling in Xiao Yan's voice. In this continent, no matter who it is, they can't help but mention this word that represents the unparalleled and supreme pinnacle.
There was a sense of awe in my heart.
"Um."
Yao Lao's soul body also trembled a few times at this moment, and a low voice echoed in the room: "On the Dou Qi Continent, the strong Dou Sheng may be rare, but the Dou Emperor... is extremely difficult to appear, and that person cannot be crossed.
The obstacles caused many giants in the cultivation world, whose talents astonished everyone in the world, to retreat in despair. Putting aside the lost ancient times, in today's era, except for the ancient Emperor Tuoshe thousands of years ago,
As far as I know, there has never been a second person in mainland China..."
"The Fighting Saint and the Fighting Emperor... are only one level apart, but they are as different as heaven and earth. For so many years, those peak experts who are qualified to attack this realm have ended up in failure."
"And the "Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade" in your hand may be something left by the legendary Tuoshe Ancient Emperor, right? Although I don't know its exact purpose, and judging from its appearance, it is just one of the
A small part of... But just the name of its former owner is enough to attract the strong men from the mainland to rush to snatch it. Therefore, your little girlfriend asked you not to take this thing out in front of anyone.
There is still some truth to it.”
Yao Lao's face also looked a little solemn. He had never thought that the Xiao family would possess such a rare object that could shake up the continent. Moreover, he also knew clearly that if this matter spread, Xiao Yan would face
What a severe situation. The strong men attracted by this thing are not comparable to that of the Yunlan Sect. I am afraid that just anyone who comes will have to reach the level of his peak period. And with Xiao Yan's strength at this time,
There is no doubt that he has no ability to resist at all.
"Emperor Tuoshe..."
Xiao Yan took a deep breath and smiled bitterly. Suddenly, he had an illusory feeling. He originally thought it was just an ordinary family token, but now he suddenly had a relationship with that god-like figure who only existed in legends.
, such an almost sudden change really made Xiao Yan feel a little unrealistic.
"I know this incident has a huge impact. Just pretend that it didn't happen today. Only the three of us know about this matter and it will probably not be leaked out. In the future, this ancient Tuoshe jade may be helpful to you, but now,
Your strength is far from enough to touch its mysteries, so let it stay quietly in the ring for now." Looking at Xiao Yan's expression, Yao Lao shook his head helplessly and said.
Xiao Yan smiled bitterly and nodded. Now, this is all he can do, but suddenly he is carrying such a huge treasure, and it is inevitable that he will feel uneasy.
"Starting from tomorrow, you should enter the Heavenly Burning Qi Refining Tower for seclusion, and reach the Dou Ling level as soon as possible, so as to increase the success rate of snatching the "Fallen Heart Flame"." Yao Lao said with a smile.
Xiao Yan nodded and was silent for a while, but he felt a little relieved. The so-called Dou Emperor was too far away from him. What he wanted most now was to burn the refining energy that day.
The fallen heart flame in the tower can give him real power, and this so-called Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade, let alone whether it is something left by the legendary Tuoshe Dou Emperor, even if
Yes, but so many generations of ancestors of the Xiao family have not researched anything. Xiao Yan does not believe that he can study it thoroughly just by thinking about it casually. Therefore, instead of placing his expectations on the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor, whose role is not sure at all.
On top of jade, it is better to increase your strength and set your sights on the Fallen Heart Flame...
In this way, it should be more reliable and realistic.
