Ji Tianxing has already figured out the ins and outs of the gift.
Only then did he realize that this matter was actually an error.
The relationship between Xiao Han and Long Zaitian was not good, but out of face, they gave him a "worthless" gift.
Long Zaitian also understood this and thought that the gift was ordinary, so he took it out as a lucky draw at the birthday banquet.
But no one expected that in the end this 'worthless' gift would fall into his hands.
He unlocked the seal of the treasure box and discovered that it contained a priceless treasure, star sand.
Both Long Zaitian and Xiao Han regretted it very much, but he became the lucky one.
However, he has already obtained the star sand. He will use this material to recast the broken sword in the future and will never return it to Xiao Han.
Xiao Han was also very sensible and had no intention of letting him return the Star Sand.
But Ji Tianxing's main purpose of coming to Xiao Han was to learn about the origin of the treasure box.
He must get to the bottom of it and get to the bottom of it.
"My lord, I will tell you the truth. Only I can decipher the sealing formation of that mysterious treasure box. It is very important to me.
Please think carefully about the origin of that treasure box and who made it?"
Seeing his serious expression, Xiao Han frowned and recalled carefully.
After a long while, he recalled what happened back then and said in a deep voice: "When the family elders gave the treasure box to me, they said that the treasure box was the treasure of our ancestors of the Xiao family.
I also investigated and asked afterward, and it was said that the treasure box was found in the secret room of the ancestor of the Xiao family.
However, our ancestors of the Xiao family did not leave any news about the treasure box, nor did they explain what was inside."
"Ancestor of the Xiao family?" Ji Tianxing raised his eyebrows and asked tentatively: "Master General, was the sealing formation on the treasure box performed by the ancestor of the Xiao family?
That treasure box has a history of a thousand years, which means that the ancestor of the Xiao family was a strong man a thousand years ago?"
Xiao Han frowned and thought for a moment, weighed for a while, then nodded and said: "The ancestors of our Xiao family were indeed strong men thousands of years ago.
But whether that treasure box was sealed by the ancestor, no one knows except the ancestor."
Ji Tianxing nodded slightly and thought to himself: "Back then, the Palace Master told me that the four followers of the Sword God were Gu Ye Xiao Shui.
I found Ye Huang before and proved that these four characters are the surnames of four followers.
If the ancestor of the Xiao family is also a follower of the Sword God, it just confirms the character Xiao of Gu Ye Xiao Shui.
It can also explain why the formation that sealed the treasure box was created by the Sword God.
As long as we can be sure that the formation on the treasure box was sealed by the ancestor of the Xiao family, everything will be solved."
After analysis, he already guessed the answer.
So, he asked Xiao Han: "Master General, I would like to ask, after a thousand years, is the ancestor of the Xiao family still alive?"
"This..." Xiao Han hesitated and hesitated, remaining silent and refusing to answer.
Ji Tianxing guessed what he was thinking and said with a sincere expression: "My lord, I will tell you the truth. I knew about your life story before I came to Wuyue City.
Of course, I have no malicious intent in investigating your information. I just want to know about the ancestor of the Xiao family.
I found out the news about the Xiao Clan, and I know that the Xiao Clan is a family that has been hidden from the world for thousands of years, and I also understand that the Xiao Clan is the backbone of the human race and is loyal to the human race and the Imperial Court."
Hearing what he said, Xiao Han's expression changed, he thought for a while, then nodded and said: "That's right, the Xiao clan lives in seclusion and avoids the world, does not get involved in the power disputes on the mainland, and has always kept a low profile.
However, the imperial courts of all clans and the top aristocratic families on the mainland all know about the existence of the Xiao clan.
Given your power and status, Mr. Ji, it is normal for you to be able to find information about the Xiao clan.
Now that you know everything, I won’t hide it from you. The ancestor of the Xiao family is the founder of the Xiao family.
My ancestor has lived for a thousand years and should still be alive in the world now.
However, the ancestor has long been indifferent to fame and wealth, has no interest in worldly affairs, and has lived in seclusion for countless years.
Even the Xiao clan's family affairs have not been involved in the family affairs for two to three hundred years.
To be honest, since I left the Xiao clan and came to Zhongzhou, I have not seen my ancestor for hundreds of years, let alone understand his movements.
I am not sure whether the ancestor is still in the clan."
Xiao Han paused, took a deep look at Ji Tianxing, and said solemnly: "Mr. Ji, if you want to find my ancestor, I advise you to give up this plan.
The Xiao people live in seclusion and avoid the world. They never participate in power disputes and do not want to get involved with the world.
Except for the children of the Xiao clan, outsiders are never allowed to enter the Xiao clan, even the emperor and princes of the Imperial Court are no exception."
Ji Tianxing was silent for a while, then stood up and said to him solemnly: "Master General, I understand what you mean.
But this matter is extremely important to me. Even if the hope is slim, I will try my best to meet him.
I also ask the Lord God General to do me a favor and make the Xiao family accommodating, or provide me with clues to find the ancestor of the Xiao family."
After that, he bowed deeply to Xiao Han with a very sincere attitude.
"This..." Xiao Han hesitated immediately, his eyes flickering as he weighed and thought.
He thought in silence for a long time, then stood up and said to Ji Tianxing: "Mr. Ji, please get up quickly, I will agree to it.
However, I cannot violate the ancestral precepts and take you to the Xiao clan.
I can only help you convey the news, report the matter to the Xiao clan, and let the elders of the Xiao clan make the decision.
As for whether the ancestor wants to see you or not, that's not something you or I can control."
Ji Tianxing breathed a sigh of relief, nodded with a smile and said: "Of course I understand this. Lord General Shen is willing to help me, and I can't thank you enough."
Xiao Han nodded and said sternly: "Now that we have decided, I will immediately send a message and report the whole matter to the Xiao clan.
Mr. Ji, please return to Zhongzhou City temporarily and wait for news from me with peace of mind.
Once this matter becomes clear, I will send you a summons and we will discuss the next steps at that time. What do you think?"
"That's very good." Ji Tianxing nodded in agreement, bowed his hands and said, "Thank you for your trouble, sir. I won't bother you anymore and will go back to Zhongzhou."
"Master Ji, go slowly!" Xiao Han returned the favor and sent him away from the city lord's mansion.
Afterwards, Ji Tianxing left Wuyue City, flew into the sky at lightning speed, and rushed back to Zhongzhou City.
After he left, Xiao Han also returned to the study, took out a jade slip, and sent a message to the Xiao clan.
Xiao Changyu stood aside respectfully, and after he handed out the jade slip, he couldn't wait to ask: "Father, why did Ji Tianxing come to you this time?
This person has a great reputation and is a man who stirs up troubles in the world. If he tries to harm our Xiao family, he may cause trouble."
Xiao Han shook his head and said solemnly: "Chang Yu, although Ji Tianxing is domineering, he is also principled and will not act recklessly.
Moreover, he seems to have some connection with our ancestor of the Xiao family, so he should not be detrimental to our Xiao family."
