I am the ancestor of the Xiao family.

Chapter 269 A Frightening Speculation

Zhongzhou, Tianji Building headquarters.

After Xiao Yan met Xiao Yu and Xiao Mei, he returned to the room with Yao Chen.

At this time, Xiao Yan looked at Yao Chen and said: "Teacher, when I heard that Sister Ya Fei went to Tianwaitian to preside over the reception of guests, there was obvious surprise in your old man's eyes.

However, because Sister Yafei was there at the time, if you didn't want to tell me, I didn't ask either.

Can we talk now? "

Hearing this, Yao Chen secretly said in his heart: "You are really a smart little guy, you actually found out at that time."

Afterwards, Yao Chen nodded and said, "That's right, I was really surprised just now, Master. Do you know who usually does things like receiving guests?"

"Who will do it? Isn't it anyone? As long as they can receive the guests who come to participate in the trial of the Heavenly Tomb, what difference does it make?" Xiao Yan was a little puzzled.

"That's right, I forgot that you kid grew up in Utan City.

Little Yanzi, you don't know, the reception of the imperial clan is different from the reception of general sects.

As you said, for the reception activities outside the Imperial Clan, no matter who comes to receive them, as long as they have the ability.

However, the reception among the imperial clan is not like this, the person hosting the reception must be a member of the imperial clan.

And although Yafei is a high-ranking member of the Tianji Building, she has won the trust of Xiao Qing, the patriarch of the Xiao Clan, but no matter what, she can't be counted as a member of the Xiao Clan. "

When Yao Chen said this, he saw Xiao Yan's still confused expression, so after taking a sip of tea, he continued, "Okay, let's continue to explain for the teacher.

For a grand event such as the Heavenly Tomb Trial, especially when there are other powerful members of the Imperial Clan present, generally speaking, an elder from the Xiao Clan, a Supreme Elder, or an elder from the Xiao Clan must preside over the work of receiving guests. The patriarch's wife presided over it herself.

This is not only a matter of etiquette, but it can also reflect the status of the host.

Although Yafei is a high-ranking girl in the Tianji Building, the trial of the Heavenly Tomb this time was issued from the standpoint of the Xiao Clan. Therefore, no matter what, the job of hosting the reception of guests will not fall on her head.

Unless, Ya Fei will completely become a member of the Xiao Clan, or occupy a very important position in the Xiao Clan.

However, Xiao Yanzi, you should know that Master Xiao Qing has a wife, even if the other elders or the Supreme Elder don't have time, she should have time to receive guests, right?Why should Ya Fei, who is not a member of the Xiao clan, be responsible alone?

Could it be that the senior officials of the Xiao Clan couldn't think of it?
This is of course impossible, this is the default unspoken rule of all imperial clans, and it has never changed for thousands of years.

Then, the only explanation is that there may be problems between the Xiao Clan and the Gu Clan, and even the wife of the Patriarch of the Xiao Clan may be abolished. "

After the words fell, Xiao Yan's eyes flashed with disbelief.

"Impossible, teacher, you don't know that patriarch Xiao Qing and his wife have a very good relationship." Xiao Yan shook his head hastily.

Who in the entire Xiao Clan doesn't know that there is a harmony between Xiao Qing and Gu Yue, how could it be abolished?

Unless Xiao Qing can't be the patriarch, otherwise, it is basically impossible to abolish Gu Yue.

However, Xiao Qing's position is very stable, because he is powerful and capable. As early as when he was the young patriarch of the Xiao clan, he was already dealing with the big and small things in the clan.

Therefore, even though Yao Chen's analysis was well-founded, Xiao Yan was still unwilling to believe it.

However, Yao Chen didn't care whether Xiao Yan believed it, or whether Gu Yue would be abolished as he thought, these had nothing to do with him.

What he was worried about now was Xiao Yan's safety.

If he didn't know that Xiao Yan agreed to Gu Yuan and would help the Gu Clan to seize the Gu Emperor's inheritance first, Yao Chen really wouldn't have any worries.

After all, this trial of the Heavenly Tomb was held in the Heaven Beyond Heaven of the Xiao Clan, and the Heavenly Tomb was completely controlled by the Xiao Clan.

However, Yao Chen always had a bad feeling in his heart, especially after analyzing that the Xiao Clan might use this Heavenly Tomb Trial to deal with the Gu Clan, he became even more worried.

"Little Yanzi, I'm suddenly very worried about you as a teacher." Yao Chen sighed.

"Ah? Teacher, what are you worried about me for? This Heavenly Tomb Trial is in the headquarters of the Xiao Clan. There are so many strong people of the Xiao Clan sitting in the fortress, and Patriarch Tiance and the others are here. You are still worried that someone will dare to attack me. Can't you kill me?" Xiao Yan said with a puzzled face, very puzzled.

"Before that, if you didn't promise the ancients to help them seize the inheritance of the ancient emperor, naturally the teacher wouldn't worry about your safety.

But, little Yanzi, have you ever thought about why the Xiao Clan held the Heavenly Tomb Trial at this time?
Not to mention, the Gu Clan was the first to know the news.

Think about it, is there really nothing wrong with this? "Yaochen said solemnly.

Hearing this, Xiao Yan frowned slightly, and worry appeared in his heart, and then he said with some uncertainty: "Teacher, could it be that you are worrying too much? Let alone the fact that I reached an agreement with Xun'er and her father. When there are no people around, there is no risk of leakage.

Another one, I just want to ensure that the inheritance of the ancient emperor will not fall into the hands of others. As for the ancient clan, if they really have the ability to be recognized by the inheritance of the ancient emperor, then I will admit it.

If they can't do it, I still want to fight for the inheritance of the ancient emperor.

In addition, although I don't know how Xun'er's father knew in advance that the Xiao Clan is going to hold the Heavenly Tomb Trial, but I think it should be someone from the Xiao Clan who sent a message."

While talking, Xiao Yan also felt that something was wrong, and soon, he said with a gloomy face: "Teacher, is this trial of the Heavenly Tomb a conspiracy specifically targeting the ancient people?"

At this time, Yao Chen saw that he had come to his senses, so he nodded and sighed: "This possibility is not ruled out.

Xiao Yan, do you understand what Dou Di means? "

"Of course, becoming Emperor Dou will allow his race to become the Emperor Clan, otherwise the Ancient Clan would not have paid so much attention to it." Xiao Yan nodded.

"So, you understand the truth, Xiao Clan will not understand?

According to the normal way of thinking, even if no one in the Xiao clan can obtain the approval of the ancient emperor's inheritance, they will not give it to others.

However, not long after Senior Tiance was promoted to Doudi powerhouse and returned to Tianwaitian, the Xiao Clan held this Heavenly Tomb Trial.

Heh, Xiao Yanzi, don't tell me, you really haven't thought about this before, have you?

If this is the case, then you have to ask the teacher to check your head, otherwise, if you continue like this, you won't know how you died. A trace of anger flashed in Yaochen's eyes, but many were worried.

Yao Chen is very clear about the strength of the Xiao Clan. It can be said to be the best in the entire Dou Qi Continent. Even if all the forces add up, even if Xiao Tiance, the Dou Di powerhouse, doesn't make a move, they can crush them.

Not to mention, now that Xiao Tiance has become a Doudi powerhouse, he only needs to make a small move, which will be a devastating blow to any force, and there is no other result at all.

After all, the Doudi powerhouse is so terrifying!

However, it is good to say before that Xiao Yan has always been highly valued by Xiao Tiance, otherwise I would not go to Wutan City in person for a top powerhouse like Xiao Tiance, and I will also send myself the secret token that I have never had the chance to use. hand.

At that time, Xiao Tiance and himself had never met, so naturally it was not to ensure his own safety. The only possibility was to let himself be deterred by the Heavenly Secret Order at a critical moment, or when Xiao Yan was in danger. enemy.

In addition, when he was in Misty Cloud Sect, although Yao Chen didn't notice the people from Tianji Building hiding around, it was probably because his strength was too low.

Otherwise, how to explain that before Xiao Yan obtained the Falling Heart Flame, whenever there was danger, people from the Tianji Building would appear in time?

Also, even if it was the three thousand flames obtained from the Holy Pill City, Xiao Tiance gave it to Xiao Yan without hesitation.

Then, with Xiao Tiance's current strength, what would he do if he knew that Xiao Yan was secretly brought together with the ancient clan, and was planning to seize the inheritance of the ancient emperor in the tomb?

Therefore, as soon as he thought about these problems, the worry in Yaochen's eyes became more and more.

"Teacher, I understand what you mean? Do you think that this trial of the Heavenly Tomb is specially made for the ancient people?" Xiao Yan was surprised with doubts, very uncertain.

"That's right, if it's not aimed specifically at the Gu Clan, does the Xiao Clan need to hold the Sky Tomb Trial at this time?

Don't tell me, Master, you don't know that someone from the same clan breaks through to Emperor Dou, which will make others awaken the blood of Emperor Dou?

And as a beneficiary of the awakening of Emperor Dou's blood, you should know how powerful a big clan will become after becoming Emperor Dou.

Little Yanzi, if the teacher guessed correctly, every move of the Gu Clan is probably under the surveillance of the Xiao Clan.

This also means that the fact that you reached an agreement with Patriarch Gu Yuan may also be known by the Xiao clan. "Yao Chen said with a worried face.

Hearing these words, a trace of worry also flashed in Xiao Yan's eyes, he was not worried about himself, but worried about Xiao Xun'er.

No matter what he said, he was also a member of the Xiao clan, and he also helped the Xiao clan revive several nine-star fighting saints. He didn't look at the monk's face and the Buddha's face, no matter what he said, he didn't have to worry about his life.

However, the Gu Clan was different. If the Xiao Clan really made a move against them, they would not have the slightest scruples.

Now, according to the difference in strength between the Xiao and Gu clans, it can be said that even if Xiao Tiance doesn't make a move, the Xiao clan can defeat the Ancient Clan in just one simple round.

"Teacher, why don't you go this time? If the situation is really so dangerous, then I will probably be involved too.

And this time, the Yao Clan will also go, because of the grievance between you and the Yao Clan, once they leave the Xiao Clan's territory, they are likely to attack you.

Before, the Yao Clan was worried that you were my teacher, and I was from the Xiao Clan, so they didn't dare to take action against you.

But once I and the Xiao Clan come to the opposite side, my identity will be worthless. "Xiao Yan said with some worry.

For Yao Chen, Xiao Yan is very grateful in his heart. Even though they have experienced a lot of hardships unlike in the original book, the relationship between Xiao Yan and Yao Chen is still very good in this life.

Even the coldness of the bone spirit on Yaochen's body was directly given to Xiao Yan to let him improve his strength quickly.

It can be said that the relationship between the two will never be inferior to the relationship between Xiao Yan and Xiao Zhan.

Therefore, after thinking about the danger ahead, the first thing Xiao Yan thought of was that it would be better for Yao Chen to participate in this Heavenly Tomb Trial.

very dangerous!
Don't look at the two of them as fighting saints, but they are really not enough in front of the Yao clan.

On the side, Yao Chen's eyes were full of relief, at least this time his eyes were right, and Xiao Yan was not Han Feng's ungrateful second-five son.

"call!"

At this time, Yao Chen exhaled a long breath, and then he said with a smile: "Little Yanzi, you can think of the safety of the teacher at the first time, and the teacher is very relieved.

However, knowing that you may be in danger, how can a teacher really abandon you? "

Speaking of this, Yao Chen smiled and continued: "Little Yanzi, don't worry too much, maybe all of this is just speculation between us.

However, there is one thing you might want to pay attention to. "

"Teacher, please enlighten me." Xiao Yan saluted respectfully.

"It's not a teaching.

As a teacher, I know that you and that girl Yafei have a good relationship, it can be said that they are bosom friends.

However, there is one thing you must pay attention to, after going to Tianwaitian this time, you must keep a distance from that girl Yafei.

For this Heavenly Tomb Trial, since the Xiao Clan chose Ya Fei to preside over the reception of guests, it is very likely that someone among the senior officials of the Xiao Clan has taken a fancy to Ya Fei.

At such a juncture of life and death, we absolutely cannot make enemies from the Xiao Clan, otherwise, no matter it is for you or for Ya Fei, there will be no good results. "Yao Chen reminded.

Although he had already guessed that it was very possible that Yafei would be the next wife of the Xiao Clan's patriarch, but now everything was just a hint, and he was not sure if it would really happen.

Therefore, be careful when sailing for thousands of years, if it's really because of getting too close to Ya Fei, it may not be a good thing.

Hearing these words, Xiao Yan frowned again, and then he pondered for a moment, although he felt uncomfortable, after all, Ya Fei almost became his own woman back then, at that time, he had a premonition that as long as he spoke, Ya Fei might not reject.

It was only later that Yafei was included in the Tianji Building and suddenly became the fastest-promoted high-level executive in the history of the Tianji Building, and gradually there was not much contact between them.

Now, recalling all the past and Yafei's proud figure, Xiao Yan always felt a fire in his heart, as if he wanted to swallow him up.

"call!"

After taking a deep breath, Xiao Tiance cupped his hands and nodded, "I understand, teacher, after entering Tianwaitian, I will deliberately keep a distance from Sister Yafei."

"Well, it's difficult for you, but the situation is stronger than others, so that we can all come back alive safely, I can only wrong you."
