What surprised them was Xin Jinghan, a name that resonated deeply with them.
Xin Jinghan back then possessed exceptional talent and aptitude, comparable to the Yuan Lord.
Everyone knows that if it weren't for what happened back then, which caused Yuan Xingdao to feel guilty and unable to let go for a long time, perhaps Yuan Xingdao would have already broken through to the ninth level of the Immortal King Realm, or even become a Quasi-Immortal Emperor.
Hearing the crowd's discussion, Yuan Xingdao slowly raised his head, looked up, and then slowly closed his eyes, remaining silent.
After a long while, he opened his eyes again and said to everyone, "Please excuse me for a moment, I have something to say to the Immortal."
His voice was calm and gentle, yet it contained an irresistible authority.
Upon hearing this, everyone rose to take their leave and filed out of the council hall.
In the vast council hall, only Yuan Xingdao and Yuan Zhexian remained.
After a moment of silence, Yuan Xingdao finally spoke again, his voice slightly low, as if suppressing some emotion: "What did she say?"
Yuan Zhexian took a deep breath, composed himself, and then told Yuan Xingdao in detail about his meeting with Xin Jinghan.
When Yuan Xingdao learned that Xin Jinghan had met Yuan Zhexian, the huge weight in his heart finally lifted, and the events of that year gradually faded away like passing clouds. A look of joy appeared on his face.
Then, Yuan Xingdao's expression became extremely complicated, as if he had endless secrets hidden in his heart, and he revealed a shocking secret.
He said slowly, "The incident involving Qingxu back then was by no means an accident, but rather something that was deliberately orchestrated."
"And this person is the Tenth Ancestor!"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Zhexian was struck dumb, as if by lightning. His thoughts were like fallen leaves swept by a whirlwind, chaotic and confused. He couldn't understand why the Tenth Ancestor would do such a thing.
Then, Yuan Xingdao explained, "Immortal, think about it. What if Qingxu obtained the Nine Apertures Returning to Emptiness Immortal Medicine, or what if he did not obtain it?"
"So where will Xiao Xun be after this?"
Without hesitation, Yuan Zhexian replied, "Grandpa will probably stay in the Immortal Realm forever."
Yuan Xingdao nodded and continued, "That's right, Xiao Xun will stay in the Immortal Realm and be protected by Qingxu and our Yuan Clan."
"But! You will not be born!"
"This is the principle of cause and effect."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Zhexian trembled violently, as if struck by an invisible force, and then he suddenly realized what was happening.
Then, Yuan Zhexian murmured to himself, "Indeed, if Grandpa had stayed in the Immortal Realm, then Father would not have been born, and naturally I would not exist."
Yuan Xingdao nodded in agreement upon hearing his words.
Then, Yuan Xingdao solemnly said to Yuan Zhexian, "Zhexian, what I am about to tell you is a major secret of the Yuan clan. This secret is very important, and you must not tell anyone before the time is right."
Yuan Zhexian knew the importance of this secret. He nodded solemnly and promised to keep it a secret.
Seeing this, Yuan Xingdao continued, "You should know that above our Yuan clan's Great Ancestor, there are Ancient Ancestor, Distant Ancestor, and Beginning Ancestor."
Yuan Zhexian nodded again, indicating that he was aware of this.
Then, Yuan Xingdao said, word by word, "However, above these three progenitors, our Yuan clan has an even more ancient existence, whom we call the First Ancestor. The First Ancestor is also the creator of our Yuan clan."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Zhexian was once again shocked.
He suddenly remembered what the Ancestor of Humanity had told him before; it turned out that what he had seen was only the tip of the iceberg.
Immediately afterward, Yuan Xingdao took a deep breath and continued, "After the First Ancestor was seriously injured, he crossed the river of time and witnessed what would happen in the future."
"As for that matter, I think you should know about it from the Great Ancestor and the others."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Zhexian immediately nodded.
"The First Ancestor then wanted to rewrite the future in some way!"
"Therefore, the process involved countless deductions and possible attempts."
"However, achieving this is no easy task."
"The First Ancestor spent countless years and used up all his immortal power to constantly refine and deduce the entire process before finally achieving success."
"And you, as you probably already know, are the one who can rewrite the future!"
Yuan Xingdao stared intently at Yuan Zhexian, then paused before speaking again.
"According to the timeline deduced by the First Ancestor, Xiao Xun also had to descend to the mortal realm for you to be born."
Yuan Xingdao explained, "Because Xiao Xun plays a crucial role in this."
He used an analogy: "It's like you are a towering tree, and Xiao Xun is the fertile soil that nurtures you."
"Without that fertile soil, how could you have grown into such a towering tree?"
"That's how you came to be, possessing the three great imperial bodies and the Great Dao Body."
At this point, Yuan Xingdao paused again, seemingly organizing his thoughts.
Then he spoke again, saying, "However, Qingxu has a rather strong personality, just like Jinghan."
"If we don't do this, given Qingxu's nature, he certainly won't let Xiao Xun descend to the mortal realm."
"If Xiao Xun had not descended to the mortal realm, your birth would not have rewritten the future."
"Then what will happen in the future is a devastating catastrophe for the entire Immortal Realm, and the entire Immortal Realm may even cease to exist."
Then, Yuan Xingdao spoke again.
