"The Xiao family patriarch?"

At this moment, not only Lin Xiao was surprised, but even the ancestor who heard these words in the void was also surprised.

"What is the Xiao family trying to do?"

In the void, an old ancestor frowned and spoke.

Not long ago, the son-in-law of the Xiao family died in their Tianyan Holy Land, and now the Xiao family patriarch has come knocking on their door.

The other elders were completely baffled, having no idea what the Xiao family was planning.

However, since Lin Xiao's safety was at stake, they all appeared at the restaurants and inns.

"Clan Chief Xiao, come out!"

The sudden appearance of several elders startled Lin Xiao.

He immediately realized what was happening and bowed.

"Disciple greets all the venerable ancestors!"

"Hmm! Lin Xiao, no need for such formalities!" an elder said, then turned his gaze toward the gate.

At this moment, a man dressed in black stood outside the door. He did not come in, seemingly wary of these elders.

"Xiao Yun, what's with this outfit? Are you planning something shady?"

Wan Jianshan asked with a gloomy expression.

Now that Xiao Yun has come knocking on their door, in the eyes of these elders, it is undoubtedly to avenge their son-in-law.

Xiao Yun's strength was considerable, possessing the cultivation of a half-saint, so they dared not be careless.

“Elders, you have all misunderstood me, Xiao Yun.”

"I am here on behalf of myself, not the Xiao family," Xiao Yun said earnestly.

"Representing yourself?"

These words silenced the ancestors of the Heavenly Evolution Holy Land once again.

After all, the Xiao family has always been full of clever ideas. With the Tiannan Secret Realm about to open, Lin Xiao's breakthrough today has caused quite a stir.

At such a sensitive time, the Xiao family suddenly came knocking on our door; no matter how you look at it, it's bound to be a bad thing.

Seeing that the ancestors of the Heavenly Evolution Holy Land remained silent, Xiao Yun suddenly became nervous.

As the head of the Xiao family, he couldn't be away for too long.

If he is discovered to be here plotting something big, being expelled from the party is a minor matter; he hasn't avenged his daughter yet!

Xiao Yun gritted his teeth and said with a serious expression.

"Esteemed Ancestors, I, Xiao Yun, am willing to swear to the Heavenly Dao with my Dao Heart that I have come here only to ask my young friend Lin Xiao to do something for me, and I have absolutely no ill intentions."

If I, Xiao Yun, have ever told even the slightest lie, may I be utterly destroyed, body and soul, never to be reincarnated, and my Xiao family will also fall into ruin because of it!

Hearing Xiao Yun make such a vicious oath, not only for himself but also for his family, it was clear that Xiao Yun was truly sincere this time.

Thinking of this, the four ancestors all smiled, just like a bright chrysanthemum.

"Hahaha! Clan Chief Xiao, how could you do this? It sounds like we old folks are forcing you to swear an oath!"

"Oh dear! Chief Xiao, it's not that we old folks don't trust you, how could you make such a vicious oath?"

“.... ... ..”

Several elders were speaking of Xiao Yun in a sarcastic and mocking tone.

Xiao Yun didn't care about this. Normally he might have been angry, but now that he needed their help, he listened quietly to what the elders had to say.

Compared to the deep hatred he felt for his daughter, what did this humiliation matter?

"Alright, Xiao Yun, come with us. This isn't the place to talk!"

After an elder finished speaking to Xiao Yun, he opened a spatial passage and went inside.

"Disciple, you follow too!" Several elders and Xiao Yun entered one after another, with Wan Jianshan walking at the back. Before entering, he called out to Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao then entered the spatial passage.

This is an independent space, a space that can only be opened up after one has entered the fifth stage of the Saintly Path.

Discussing matters here means you don't have to worry about being spied on.

Once everyone had entered the space, the spatial passage was closed.

Then they got down to business.

"Clan Chief Xiao, now you can tell me, what do you want to ask Lin Xiao for a favor?"

The four patriarchs and Lin Xiao sat in a row, with Xiao Yun sitting opposite them.

"Esteemed Ancestors, I would like to ask my young friend Lin Xiao to deal with someone for me in the Tiannan Secret Realm."

Xiao Yun said with a solemn expression.

"Oh? Who?"

"Even Clan Chief Xiao couldn't eliminate him, so surely Lin Xiao is no match for him!"

An old ancestor raised an eyebrow and said.

"No! I trust young friend Lin Xiao. The person I asked him to deal with is my daughter, Xiao Yanran!"

Xiao Yun said with utmost seriousness.

When Xiao Yanran was mentioned, his eyes were filled with terrifying killing intent.

It seems that the person he was talking about was not his daughter, but rather his mortal enemy.

Upon hearing who Xiao Yun was referring to, Lin Xiao's eyes widened slightly, and even his mouth opened slightly, revealing a surprised expression.

The other elders also suddenly sat up straight, leaning back slightly.

They looked at Xiao Yun in disbelief.

Did they mishear?

The dignified patriarch of the Xiao family actually ordered someone to deal with his dearest daughter!

Is this what filial piety and parental love look like in the Xiao family?

"Clan Chief Xiao, are you sure you're not mistaken? Are you sure the person you want to deal with is your daughter?"

Lin Xiao broke the silence by asking a question.

Even tigers don't eat their cubs, so how come things have changed in the Xiao family? They even want to eliminate their own bloodline.

Xiao Yun glanced at the strange expressions on the faces of the old ancestors and Lin Xiao.

He then began to explain.

"Actually, she is no longer my daughter. My daughter had already fallen into a coma due to excessive grief the moment Su Chen died."

"The person who now possesses my daughter is the ancestor who once ascended to the upper realm, the Phoenix Ancestor, Xiao Phoenix!"

Upon hearing the name of the Phoenix Ancestor, Lin Xiao could see the pupils of the other ancestors beside him suddenly contract.

"Xiao Fenghuang? Didn't she ascend to the upper realm ten thousand years ago? How could she... ..."

These ancestors were all ancient monsters who had lived for tens of thousands of years. They had even watched Xiao Fenghuang ascend to immortality from afar.

Now, ten thousand years later, those who once ascended to the upper realm have returned and even taken over the bodies of their descendants. It's truly an oddity that they come from the same family.

"Hmm! That's right. Although I don't know why Xiao Fenghuang returned from the Upper Realm, she shouldn't have taken advantage of my daughter's weakness to possess her."

Xiao Yun said angrily, glancing at Lin Xiao as he spoke.

After all, his daughter's coma was caused by Lin Xiao killing Su Chen, which led to her excessive grief.

"Clan Chief Xiao, so you've come here to interrogate me?"

Noticing Xiao Yun's gaze, Wan Jianshan immediately became displeased and said with a stern face.

"Of course not. I was absolutely against my daughter and Su Chen's relationship from the start, but..."

Xiao Yun let out a long sigh.

"Clan Chief Xiao, I wonder how strong Xiao Fenghuang is?"
