Author: There are training classes on Saturday and Sunday, so this chapter is a little late. If possible, add another chapter to make up for it.
In the Xiao family's secret chamber.
"Li, are you really going to leave?" Xiao Zhan asked.”
"Yes!" Xiao Bieli nodded." After all, I'm in my position. There's nothing I can do about it. As an outer court teacher of the Jia Nan Academy, if he were to wantonly disregard the academy's rules, it would inevitably leave a bad mark on some students, giving some people with ill intentions a chance to speak.”
"Fine, since Jia Nan Academy has such a rule, I won't force you to stay." In any case, the Jia Lie Clan and the Aoba Clan have already fallen, and my own strength has already broken through to the one star Dou Ling stage. Coupled with the Cold Iron Star Pattern Gloves that you forged for me, I've barely reached the six star Dou Ling stage. In the territory of Wu Tan City, the Xiao Clan no longer has anything to worry about. Even if we force you to stay in the clan, it would be meaningless. It would instead delay your future. I only hope that after you go out, you can come back often to visit. Don't forget that you still have a home in Wu Tan City and me, your big brother.”
Hearing Xiao Zhan's words, Xiao Bieli didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Big Brother, please don't make it sound so emotional. It's not like I'm never coming back." No matter what, my surname is Xiao. This is an unchangeable fact. Wu Tan City's Xiao family is my root. No matter where I go in the future, no matter how much I achieve, the fallen leaves will always return to their roots.”
"I'm relieved to hear that.”Hearing Xiao Bieli's words, Xiao Zhan felt relieved.
Xiao Bieli sized up Xiao Zhan with a strange look and said,""Big brother, you are worried that my strength is too strong and that the Xiao family will not be able to keep me, right?”
Xiao Zhan couldn't help but blush when Xiao Bieli exposed his thoughts, but he didn't say anything.
Xiao Bieli continued," Big Brother, don't worry. Since the heavens have arranged for me to be born in the Xiao Family, the Xiao Family's honor, disgrace, and survival are my honor, disgrace, and survival. I won't go to the extent of forgetting my roots and betraying my ancestors.”
"Haha, Little Li, your words are a little too much.”Xiao Zhan said with a bright face," I watched you grow up. Others may not know what kind of person you are, but do you think I don't?”
The two of them exchanged greetings for a while before Xiao Bieli cut to the chase."Big brother, this time around, when the Jia Nan Academy is recruiting students, I plan to bring those few good seedlings in. What do you think?”
Xiao Zhan waved his hand and said,"This is a good thing for the development of the family. How can I not agree?" Just bring whoever you like!"
"Yes!" Xiao Bieli nodded, and his expression suddenly turned serious. Then, he changed the topic," But before I leave, I still have something to say to you, Big Brother. This is also the reason why I called you to the secret chamber.”
Seeing Xiao Bieli's expression, Xiao Zhan calmed down.
"Xiao Li, tell me!"
Xiao Bieli said," What I'm about to say is too shocking. I hope that you won't be too shocked after hearing it."”
"Just say it. Although I haven't been very glorious in my life, I've still seen some of the world.”
Only then did Xiao Bieli say," What I want to tell you, Big Brother, are some secrets of our Xiao Clan. Some secrets that even you, the Clan Leader, don't know about. But before that, big brother, please take out the jade slip that was passed down in our Xiao family.”
Immediately, Xiao Zhan did not suspect anything and took out the jade slip that he had kept on him, the Tou She Ancient God Jade.
"Big brother, do you know the name of this jade slip? Do you have any background?"
Xiao Zhan shook his head." This jade slip was passed down by our ancestors. Its name has long been forgotten. As for its origin, it is even more mysterious." However, I do know that it has one effect, and that is to record the aura of the Xiao clan's past patriarchs.”
As he spoke, Xiao Zhan pointed at a small green dot on the jade slip and said,""This green dot represents me, and the gray dots next to it represent the past generations of the Xiao clan's clan leaders.”
Pausing for a moment, Xiao Zhan suddenly asked,""Xiao Li, since you're asking me this, could it be that you know the name and origin of this jade scroll?”
"Yes!" Xiao Bieli nodded." I've been traveling for three years and have been to many places. I've also seen a lot of the world. By chance, I discovered some information regarding the foundation of our Xiao clan in the Burning Flame Valley. As I pursued it, I actually managed to unravel some of the ancient secrets of our Xiao clan by accident.”
Xiao Bieli's words were half true and half false. It was a fact that he had been to the Burning Flame Valley, but the ancient secrets of the Xiao clan were memories that he had brought over from his previous life. The reason why he said this was just to find an excuse.
"The ancient secret of our Xiao clan? What kind of secret was it? What does it have to do with this jade slip?" Xiao Zhan firmly believed in Xiao Bieli's words. At this moment, he became increasingly curious about the Xiao Family's ancient secrets that Xiao Bieli mentioned.
"I remember that not long ago, I told you that the foundation of our Xiao family is not as simple as it seems on the surface. At that time, due to certain reasons, I did not tell you.”Xiao Bieli slowly said," Now that the time is ripe, it's time for you to know about these things.”
After pausing for a moment, Xiao Bieli continued,""The name of this jade scroll is called the Tou She Ancient God Jade. It is the relic of the Dou Qi continent's last Dou Di, the Tou She Ancient God.”
"Ah!" Hearing this, even though Xiao Zhan had already mentally prepared himself, he still fell into a state of shock.
Ignoring Xiao Zhan's shock, Xiao Bieli continued,""There are a total of eight jade slips like this, and they were divided among the eight ancient clans. My Xiao clan is one of the eight ancient clans, the Xiao clan.”
"What?!" Xiao Bieli's words once again shocked Xiao Zhan. The Xiao Family's predecessor was actually one of the eight ancient families, the Xiao Family. This was something that Xiao Zhan found hard to accept.
Looking at the shocked Xiao Zhan, Xiao Bieli paused for a moment before continuing,""The eight ancient clans all possess the bloodline of the ancient Dou Di. My Xiao clan is no exception. Ancestor Xiao Xuan possessed the strength of a peak nine star Dou Sheng. He was one of the five strongest people in the world. It was because he was accidentally ambushed by the Hun clan and died when he was charging at the Dou Di class. Our Xiao clan also declined because he had exhausted his Dou Di bloodline. In order to avoid the pursuit of the Hun clan, they had no choice but to hide in a second-rate city like Wu Tan City.”
Under Xiao Bieli's repeated attacks, Xiao Zhan's mind sank deeper and deeper, unable to extricate himself. However, all of this was within Xiao Bieli's expectations. After all, it would be strange if anyone wasn't shocked when they first heard of such a shocking secret.
After a while, Xiao Zhan finally digested Xiao Bieli's words and came back to his senses.
"Xiao Li, is everything you said true?”Obviously, Xiao Zhan was still not sure.
"Big Brother, do you think I would joke about such a thing?" Xiao Bieli said with a solemn expression.”
Pausing for a moment, Xiao Bieli continued,""My sister-in-law, who is also Yan 'er's mother, is from one of the eight ancient clans, the Gu clan. Xun Er is also one of them. Big brother, you should know about this, right?”
