"decay?"
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Xiao Yi frowned. This was the first time he heard someone use these two words to describe the Xiao family.
As one of the twelve aristocratic families, even though the Xiao family is in decline among the twelve aristocratic families, but looking at the entire ancient martial arts world, the Xiao family is still a behemoth.
But what did Xiao Chen say?
If he wants to establish a force, he can do so at any time and build one that is no worse than the Xiao family!
How much they look down on the Xiao family!
In other words, does he understand the Xiao family?
I guess you don't understand.
"Yes, decay."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"I'm not targeting the Xiao family, but these ancient families are all corrupt... There are too many dregs that are hard to accept."
"I feel... okay? Is it that bad?"
Xiao Yi found it a little hard to accept.
"Haha, Senior Xiao has been in seclusion all the time, and he has lived in this environment since he was a child, so he probably can't feel anything."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"For example, the Xiao family's elders' council, in my opinion, is dregs."
"The Zonglaohui is a dregs?"
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Xiao Yi frowned even deeper.
"The existence of the clan elders' council is to limit the power of the clan head. Isn't that a good thing?"
“It’s a good thing, but at the same time…it will also restrict development.”
Xiao Chen said slowly.
"Whatever the Xiao family patriarch does, he has to look to the elders for their approval. What's the difference between him and a puppet? In the ancient martial arts world, strength is everything. Take Xiao Mian for example. He said he wanted to remove Xiao Sheng as the patriarch. Whether he has the power or not, he can say it. In my opinion, that's not okay."
"Are you afraid that after you become the head of the family, the elders will restrict you?"
Xiao Yi understood a little.
"I'm not worried about that. Do you think the elders' council can restrict me? Whoever dares will be killed!"
Xiao Chen said lightly.
“…”
Xiao Yi was a little speechless. Kill him? This kid... is really bold and reckless.
"So, don't even mention that there are conditions. Even if there are no conditions, even if you beg me to be the head of the family, I won't do it."
Xiao Chen said shamelessly while drinking tea.
At least, in Xiao Yi's eyes, Xiao Chen's words were just bragging... He was so angry that his liver hurt.
But he still held back, and kept comforting himself in his heart, I, an old man, will not argue with this arrogant boy.
"Boy, you just said that you can build a force comparable to the Xiao family at any time? Why?"
Xiao Yi planned to let Xiao Chen know the Xiao family's background.
"Is it enough that I can fight against a half-step innate warrior?"
Xiao Chen asked.
"not enough."
Xiao Yi shook his head.
"In the ancient martial arts world, although strength is respected, some background is also very important, such as ancient martial arts skills..."
"Oh, ancient martial arts skills? Haha."
Xiao Chen smiled.
Xiao Yi looked at Xiao Chen's smile and felt something was wrong. What was he laughing at?
Before he could finish his thought, some new things appeared on the table.
"These are all top-level ancient martial arts techniques. Are they enough?"
Xiao Chen pointed at the scroll that appeared out of thin air on the table and asked.
"Space magic weapon? Storage ring?"
Xiao Yi's expression changed slightly and he looked at the bone ring in Xiao Chen's hand.
The fact that Xiao Chen had a storage ring had not spread widely in the country.
During the previous battle, Xiao Chen suddenly took out the Xuanyuan Sword. Many people were surprised and curious about where he got it from.
But later, the fighting power displayed by Xiao Chen shocked everyone, and they ignored this matter.
Now looking at the scroll that appeared out of thin air, how could Xiao Yi not understand?
After all, he was a master of the older generation and was knowledgeable. Even though the storage ring only existed in legends, he guessed it at once.
And...he had seen the space magic weapon before.
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"If this isn't enough, I have more."
As soon as he finished speaking, another pile of things appeared on the table, even causing the table to tremble a few times.
Xiao Yi's gaze finally shifted from the bone ring on Xiao Chen's hand to the book on the table.
He picked up a book at random and started flipping through it.
With his keen eyesight, he could naturally see that this was indeed a top-level ancient martial arts technique.
But...why are there so many?
He picked up another one, the same one!
Xiao Yi was a little shocked. Even the Xiao family did not have so many top-level mental techniques.
“Senior Xiao, does the Xiao family have so many?”
But Xiao Chen asked another question.
"Well, not only the ancient martial arts skills, the Xiao family also has many treasures, such as weapons..."
Xiao Yi coughed dryly. He couldn't let this kid be so proud, right?
Ding!
He had barely finished speaking when more than a dozen swords appeared on the ground, emitting an icy chill.
"These... should not be ordinary stuff."
Xiao Chen said with a smile.
“…”
Xiao Yi's eyelids twitched. Where did he get it?
"There are still many in my storage ring... There is nothing else, but there are plenty of various treasures."
As Xiao Chen spoke, he took out a lot of things, and the ground became like a small hill.
“Okay!”
Xiao Yi couldn't help but speak, and his white beard curled up.
"You...how come you have so many?"
"How much? This is only one tenth."
Xiao Chen was surprised.
“Not much.”
“…”
Xiao Yi remained silent.
"hehe."
Seeing Xiao Yi's expression, Xiao Chen stopped provoking him and put away all the things.
"Senior Xiao, do you think that the Xiao family's Patriarch still has any appeal to me?"
"What do you think... about Xiao Lin becoming the head of this family?"
Xiao Yi didn't even mention letting Xiao Chen become the head of the family. He knew that there was no hope, absolutely no hope!
“It’s very suitable.”
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Okay, I understand."
Xiao Yi nodded.
"I will think carefully about the Patriarch's matter, and then the elders will discuss it."
"Um."
Xiao Chen didn't say much. He felt that there was a very high possibility that Xiao Lin would become the head of the family.
"Your spirit...is different from that of ordinary people?"
Xiao Yi took a sip of tea and asked.
"No, I'm just a little stronger than ordinary people."
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"Even if the soul is stronger than an ordinary person, you shouldn't detonate the domain without limit. It will cause damage to the soul..."
When Xiao Yi thought of Xiao Chen's endless domain, he felt a little annoyed. How could the battle be that simple?
"Didn't the old fortune teller tell you this? At this level, the power of exploding heaven and earth is the last trump card, not a conventional means of fighting the enemy."
"No, I don't think it has any impact..."
Xiao Chen shook his head. He really didn't feel anything.
“…”
Xiao Yi was speechless. What a monster! It really is a monster!
"Senior Xiao, you used the power of heaven and earth as a means of attack before..."
Xiao Chen looked at Xiao Yi and asked what he wanted to ask.
"Didn't the old fortune teller tell you?"
Xiao Yi was surprised.
"No, the old fortune teller left me alone. I guess as long as I don't go crazy, he won't interfere with me."
Xiao Chen shook his head. He felt helpless when he mentioned this.
“…”
Xiao Yi was even more speechless. How could the old fortune teller just let such a monster grow up?
However, he still explained it in detail to Xiao Chen. It took a lot of effort for the kid to humbly ask for advice, which made him finally feel that his reputation as a congenital was not in vain.
Moreover, this is also a good opportunity to get closer to the boy.
He could feel that although this kid was polite to him, it was this politeness that made him feel unfamiliar... This kid and Xiao Lin would definitely not be so polite.
After the discussion between the two, Xiao Chen benefited a lot, and so did Xiao Yi...
In the beginning, it was often Xiao Yi who answered Xiao Chen's questions, but later on, Xiao Chen would also put forward some ideas of his own.
These thoughts of his often made Xiao Yi's eyes light up and his heart touched.
This surprised him. No wonder this kid had such strong fighting power at such a young age.
Especially in terms of spirit and soul, there are some views that Xiao Yi had never considered before.
It's getting dark.
As the discussion went on, the relationship between the two people became closer and closer.
"Boy, don't call me Senior Xiao. What if you just call me Ancestor?"
Seeing that the discussion atmosphere was very good, Xiao Yi took the opportunity to speak to Xiao Chen.
He had a good idea. As long as Xiao Chen called out "Ancestor", it would be a sign of his return to the Xiao family.
Hearing Xiao Yi's words, Xiao Chen looked at him. This old guy is not honest.
"Well, don't call me Senior Xiao anymore."
Xiao Yi felt a little embarrassed when Xiao Chen stared at him, and said.
"Then what should I shout?"
Xiao Chen curled his lips.
"Of course it's the old..."
"Old Xiao? Are you happy with that?"
Xiao Chen continued Xiao Yi's words and asked.
"puff!"
Xiao Yi spat out a mouthful of tea. Old Xiao? This kid... is too bold!
The whole Xiao family calls him the ancestor. If he really calls him Old Xiao, that would be ridiculous!
Especially when it happens in front of other people, it would probably shock them to their core.
But thinking about Xiao Chen calling him "old fortune teller" all the time, it wouldn't be unacceptable for him to call him "Old Xiao", right?
Think about it again, calling him 'Old Xiao' would feel more intimate than calling him 'Senior Xiao', right?
"Okay, then you can just call me 'Lao Xiao'."
Thoughts flashed through his mind, Xiao Yi wiped the tea from his mouth and said to Xiao Chen.
puff!
This time, it was Xiao Chen's turn to spit tea.
He widened his eyes and looked at Xiao Yi. Did he really agree?
"Why, didn't you say you wanted to call Lao Xiao? Don't you dare?"
Xiao Yi asked after seeing Xiao Chen's reaction.
"without……"
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"Well, shall we stop here today? I'm a little hungry... Think about it carefully. If you can't satisfy me in three days, I'm afraid we'll have to fight again..."
"Don't leave. Come drink with me, an old man. I'll have someone bring something up now."
After Xiao Yi finished speaking, he took out a cell phone and made a call.
“…”
Xiao Chen looked at Xiao Yi who was on the phone, and for some reason, he felt a sense of disobedience.
Think about it... this is a master in the ancient martial arts world, a congenital master... he actually made a phone call?
Soon, Xiao Yi finished the call.
"What's wrong?"
"No, how did you get the phone? Aren't you in seclusion?"
Xiao Chen asked curiously.
"I'm not a deity, how can I go into seclusion without eating or drinking... If I don't move, wouldn't that make me an old bastard?"
Xiao Yi waved his hand.
"It's not as exaggerated as you think. If that were the case, I would not die of old age, but of starvation!"
“…”
Xiao Chen curled the corner of his mouth. If he doesn't move, he is a turtle?
This old man... is quite attractive.
Much better than that old guy Xiao Mian!
