The next morning.

Xiao Chen and Nangong Ling went to the southern suburbs.

"Ling'er, how many innates are there in the Nangong family?"

On the way, Xiao Chen asked.

"Ah? How many innate ones?"

Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Nangong Ling was stunned for a moment.

"It seems... just one?"

"Only one?"

After Xiao Chen finished speaking, he thought about the Xiao family and the Ye family and nodded, as if there was only one innate person in the aristocratic family.

However, he has quite a few innate talents around him, which makes him have the illusion that innate talents are no longer valuable and it seems that he has quite a lot of them.

In fact… In the ancient martial arts world, there are still very few innate people, and they are all old guys.

If the spirit and soul are not strong, the innate nature will almost be broken.

After a few decades, no, it won’t take decades, just a dozen years, the older generation of innates will be gone, and the ancient martial arts world will be in a period of transition. Without new innates, the innates will become legendary.

Then, half a step to the innate is the strongest.

By then, the ancient martial arts world would really become a soft persimmon that could be squeezed however one wanted.

There hadn't been any Xiantian for many years, and the people in the ancient martial arts world were beginning to despair.

Fortunately, Nie Jingfeng entered the innate realm, bringing hope to the ancient martial arts world.

Many half-step innate masters, such as Xuan Kong, began to retreat, wanting to give it one more try.

"One...too few?"

Nangong Ling looked at Xiao Chen with an even weirder expression.

"Some noble families don't even have one."

"Uh-huh."

Xiao Chen nodded. There were basically only one of the twelve families, and there were also two at the top.

A congenital master is the most basic.

Like the Ximen family, they no longer have innate masters, but they have a lot of half-step innate masters, and with the support of the Xuantian Sect, they have managed to maintain their reputation as one of the Twelve Families.

Before, the Ximen family was at the bottom of the list and almost got eliminated.

Otherwise, the Ximen family would not have been affiliated with the Xuantian Sect. After all, it is one of the Twelve Families!

As for the Xiao family, Old Xiao had not been heard from for many years and the outside world thought he was dead.

Therefore, the Xuantian sect was ready to make a move, which led to the plan of going to the Xiao family with the Ximen family.

“Speaking of which, the number of innates in the ancient martial arts world is not bad.”

Xiao Chen thought about it.

"The twelve noble families probably have fifteen innate masters, the nine palaces have about twenty, and the four factions have fifteen. I don't have much idea about the three sects, but each sect should have three to five, so it shouldn't be a big problem."

After hearing what Xiao Chen said, Nangong Ling thought about it and nodded: "According to what you said, there are quite a few... In addition to the three sects, four schools, nine palaces and twelve noble families, there are also some hidden beings who are also innate! After the twelve noble families, there are also several very strong forces, and I heard that there are also innates in charge."

"Yes, if we take a full count, there are at least a hundred Xiantian in the ancient martial arts world."

Xiao Chen nodded.

"However, a number of one hundred is extremely rare in the entire ancient martial arts world..."

"What about the half-step innate? How many can there be?"

Nangong Ling asked curiously.

"I think it should be at least tripled, or even more... maybe three to five hundred."

Xiao Chen replied.

"I used to think that Hua Jin was very strong, but after entering Hua Jin, I found that Hua Jin was also very strong..."

Nangong Ling smiled.

"One day, I must reach the Xiantian realm."

"Haha, I will."

Xiao Chen also laughed.

"Didn't I tell Xiao Meng that the Xiantian Realm is not the peak, but the starting point... As you become stronger, the environment around you will also change, and then there will be more and more strong people."

"Um."

Nangong Ling nodded.

"This time you went to the southern suburbs, are you going to teach my master the "Return to the Origin Divine Art"?"

"Haha, you don't need me to teach you."

Xiao Chen smiled.

"Fatty Chen has already taught me."

"Grandpa Chen taught you? Did you ask him to teach you?"

Nangong Ling asked.

“Well, although Mr. Nangong is from the Nangong family, he is also a member of the Dragon Emperor. No matter what the reaction of the Heavenly World is, at least they have to be wary of the Dragon Emperor.”

Xiao Chen nodded.

"Wait and see. If Tianwaitian doesn't react, then spread the word... I'm looking forward to the ancient martial arts world at that time."

“I’m looking forward to it too.”

Nangong Ling looked at Xiao Chen with shining eyes.

"I have a feeling that you will change the entire ancient martial arts world..."

"Haha, I think there's admiration in your eyes."

Xiao Chen smiled.

"Why, do you regard me as an idol?"

“Somewhat.”

Nangong Ling nodded.

"Just because I am your idol, I must change the ancient martial arts world."

Xiao Chen smiled.

"I'm looking forward to it."

Nangong Ling said seriously.

After arriving at the southern suburbs, Nangong Bufan smiled when he saw Xiao Chen.

He has already practiced "Guiyuan Divine Art" and also knows the function of this "Guiyuan Divine Art".

"Xiao Chen, Lao Chen told me everything about this incident. It's pretty good..."

Nangong Bufan poured a cup of tea for Xiao Chen and said.

"Nangong, you said Xiao Chen was willing to teach you such an important "Return to the Origin Divine Art", but you didn't show any appreciation?"

Without waiting for Xiao Chen to speak, Fatty Chen spoke.

"Um?"

Nangong Bufan was stunned for a moment.

"Old Chen, then tell me, how should I express it?"

"Next, Wushang Palace and Chu Zhuo's master may take action... Nangong family can't stay out of it, right?"

Fatty Chen said.

"Besides, Xiao Chen is also the son-in-law of your Nangong family, right? Can outsiders bully him?"

"Mr. Chen, I have no intention of targeting the Nangong family."

Hearing what Fatty Chen said, Xiao Chen hurriedly said.

"I didn't say you had an idea, but if you don't mention it, Nangong, you have to show it."

Fatty Chen said.

Nangong Bufan looked at Fatty Chen and gave a wry smile. This old guy really had nothing to say about Xiao Chen.

Then, he noticed Nangong Ling, who was also looking at him expectantly, and he knew that he had to express his feelings.

"Okay, I'll make my position clear. I'll also go to Longmen to be an elder, and then the Nangong family will form an alliance with Longmen..."

Nangong Bufan looked at Xiao Chen and said slowly.

"Go to the Nangong family in a few days and tell them about you and Ling'er. Also... Ling'er is going to return to the Nangong family too. I think it would be better if you were there."

"Return to the Nangong family?"

Hearing this, Xiao Chen was surprised and looked at Nangong Ling.

Before, he had guessed about Nangong Ling's identity.

I also vaguely know that Nangong Ling is the eldest daughter of the Nangong family.

Otherwise, with only Nangong Bufan's disciples, how could the Nangong family have masters to protect him?

Now it seems that this is a time to return to one’s roots!

"Okay, I'll go there when the time comes."

Xiao Chen looked at Nangong Ling and said with a smile.

This is a big deal, so of course he has to go. Besides... the Nangong family and the Ye family have always been competing with each other.

What is he doing at the Ye family? He can’t do anything for the Nangong family either.

This trip is inevitable.

"Old Chen and I have witnessed your growth... and we look forward to your future heights."

Nangong Bufan looked at Xiao Chen with some relief.

When their [Dragon Emperor] first appeared, Xiao Chen was still very weak. Although he could fight across borders, he was nothing in the eyes of a truly strong man.

But in a short period of time, Xiao Chen grew up and surpassed them!

It feels unreal, as it has never happened before.

Next, Xiao Chen will become even stronger, leaving them behind, and reach a height that they, and even the entire ancient martial arts world, have never reached.

No wonder the old fortune teller said before that Xiantian is not the end for Xiao Chen, but the starting point.

They may be able to witness the beginning of an era and the birth of a legend.

"Yeah, we're all looking forward to it."

Fatty Chen nodded.

"By the way, Nangong, you can also look forward to me. I have a feeling that my strength will improve by leaps and bounds in the future. One day I will take a half step forward, and in three days I will become an innate..."

“…”

Nangong Bufan was speechless. You can just brag.

Xiao Chen and Nangong Ling also laughed, so they could look forward to it a little.

"Boy, you came here today not just to visit Nangong, right? Is there anything else? If you want to ask something, don't ask. Whatever Nangong knows, I know. Even if he doesn't know, I may know it too."

Fatty Chen looked at Xiao Chen and said.

"In a few days, Elder Long will be back. We'll talk then."

"good."

Xiao Chen nodded.

"I came here today to visit Mr. Nangong..."

"You should change your name."

Fatty Chen said.

“Hmm…”

Xiao Chen looked at Fatty Chen, then at Nangong Bufan.

"grandfather?"

"Why."

Fatty Chen nodded.

"You're taking advantage of me!"

Xiao Chen stared.

"I didn't call you."

"Same, if you call me Grandpa Nangong, you have to call me that too. Ling'er can call me Grandpa Chen."

Fatty Chen said with a smile.

"Secondly, I want to contact Senior Jiuxian and the others. I plan to spread the "Return to the Origin Divine Art"."

Xiao Chen said slowly.

"Hmm? Are you sure?"

Hearing this, Fatty Chen stopped smiling and became more serious.

Nangong Bufan also looked at Xiao Chen. This was no small matter.

"Well, it's confirmed. You can spread it, but for some noble families, don't spread it for the time being... For example, Senior Jiuxian is very powerful, and with the Dragon Emperor as his background, he can cultivate the gods. Of course, before practicing, he must make everything clear, including the risks."

Xiao Chen said seriously.

This is what he thought last night, to improve his own strength as soon as possible. He couldn't put all his options on Tianwaitian.

If Tianwaitian doesn't allow it, won't they become stronger?

A warrior can only become stronger if he dares to fight.

Only when you become stronger can you be qualified to fight.

"Yeah, I see what you mean."

Fatty Chen nodded.

"Let's do it on a small scale first."

Xiao Chen said slowly.

"If you don't even dare to fight, why bother practicing martial arts?"

Fatty Chen and Nangong Bufan looked at each other and nodded.

In addition to people like Jiuxian, Xiao Chen also plans to spread the word in Longmen. Of course, it is only limited to masters in the middle and late stages of Huajin.

For those who are weak, learning it will be of no use for the time being, and it will even be risky.

"Can the innate power of the Nangong family be cultivated?"

Suddenly, Nangong Bufan asked.

"Can."

Xiao Chen pondered for a moment and nodded.

"The powerful soul of the Xiantian realm is also useful."

"good."

Nangong Bufan nodded. After practicing the "Guiyuan Divine Art", the Nangong family and Xiao Chen were now in the same boat.

He vaguely understood what Xiao Chen was going to do.

The ambition is great, but there is not much selfishness in this ambition.
