An Excited Xiao Xuan!

"Call out"

A streak of light flashed through the darkness deep within the Third Layer of the Heavenly Tomb!

Finally, after passing through an area filled with stone tablets, the streak of light stopped in a desolate, empty place.

Here, there was nothing around but darkness.

Fortunately, Xiao Lin was strong enough that the darkness could not impede his perception at all.

In Xiao Lin's perception, on this desolate and empty land before him, only a tombstone stood alone, giving people a sense of desolation.

Thinking of the area of stone tablets he had passed through not long ago, Xiao Lin knew that this tombstone should be the same as the many stone tablets in that area.

But why is there only one tombstone here?

The reason is quite simple!

Those old stone tablets are unworthy to be placed alongside this tombstone!

Xiao Lin now stands quietly before this tombstone, gazing at this place.

He could feel that the guidance deep within his bloodline came from this tombstone!

"Buzz~"

At the same time, not long after Xiao Lin arrived in front of the tombstone, a figure in a green robe slowly emerged from above the tombstone.

And so, across a thousand years, Xiao Lin's gaze met that of his ancestor.

"Slap"

"Xiao Lin, Xiao Clan Descendants, greets his ancestor!"

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Lin clasped his hands in a fist salute to the figure in blue before him and then bowed slightly at the waist.

To be honest, in the entire Dou Qi Continent today, even Gu Yuan, Hun Tiandi, and Zhukun Kun are not qualified to make Xiao Lin bow down, but the person he is facing now is his own ancestor!

Regardless of what decision Xiao Xuan made back then, his original intention was always for the good of the Xiao Clan.

Moreover, his decision was supported by the entire Xiao Clan!

Therefore, Xiao Lin, as a descendant, naturally has no right to comment on this matter.

Or perhaps Xiao Xuan himself possessed this charisma, which made his clansmen believe in him.

In fact, if the Dou Qi Continent hadn't run out of Origin Qi, Xiao Xuan would definitely have succeeded in breaking through to Dou Emperor.

It could be said that it wasn't that Xiao Xuan failed, but that the Dou Qi Continent lacked the conditions for him to become Dou Emperor!

Therefore, Xiao Lin has never had any thought of blaming the Xiao family for Xiao Household current situation.

"Xiao Lin... you, you are truly a descendant of my Xiao Clan?"

The moment Xiao Lin finished speaking, Xiao Xuan, who had been relatively calm, began to tremble with excitement.

Even though the connection deep within their bloodline couldn't possibly be wrong, and Xiao Lin had also called him "ancestor," Xiao Xuan still couldn't quite believe what he was hearing.

After all, this was simply too incredible for him!

It's important to know that because Xiao Yan had first met the three brothers, Xiao Li Xiao Ding, and Xiao Xuan Ding, he naturally learned about the current situation of the Xiao Household from them.

Even without the three people's prior notice, Xiao Xuan could have foreseen that the Xiao Clan's current situation was definitely not good, given what he had done back then.

For Xiao Xuan, knowing that the Xiao Clan still has Dou Venerable is already enough.

But what did he see right now?

The person in front of him, who called himself Xiao Lin, called him "ancestor," and whose bloodline seemed to resonate with his, not only possessed the cultivation of Late-Stage Eight-Star Dou Sheng, but also had Emperor Soul!

To be honest, Xiao Xuan was completely dumbfounded when he discovered this.

Yes, even Gu Yuan couldn't discern Xiao Lin's cultivation level, but Xiao Xuan did!

Therefore, it is evident that although Xiao Xuan failed to gather the bloodline of his entire clan to attack the Dou Emperor Realm, he did indeed take a half-step forward from the original level.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to see through Xiao Lin's true cultivation level.

Imagine, Xiao Xuan thought the Xiao Clan had completely declined, and then suddenly a clansman with the power of a Late-Stage Eight-Star Dou Sheng plus Emperor Soul appeared before him. How could he not be excited? How could he not question the meaning of life?

As the patriarch of the Xiao Clan a thousand years ago, Xiao Xuan had seen all kinds of storms, but at this moment, he still lost his composure.

After all, even before the Xiao Clan's decline, no one else besides him could achieve a configuration like Late-Stage Eight-Star Dou Sheng plus Emperor Soul.

But now, the once-declining Xiao Household has produced someone who would have been considered the second strongest member of the Xiao Clan a thousand years ago. Even the former Emperor Xiao would probably be astonished!

At the same time, Xiao Lin couldn't help but find it amusing to see his ancestor's dumbfounded expression.

However, he could understand his ancestor's feelings at that moment.

"Ancestor, I, Xiao Lin, am a genuine descendant of the Xiao Clan!"

Seeing the incredulous expression on Xiao Xuan's face, Xiao Lin nodded again in affirmation.

Furthermore, as Xiao Lin finished speaking, his appearance also began to change rapidly.

Before long, a young man who looked to be about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old appeared in Xiao Xuan's field of vision.

He didn't need to pretend when facing his own ancestors!

At this moment, it can be seen that Xiao Lin's appearance is actually three times more similar to Xiao Xuan's!

Especially their eyes, which both seemed to carry a hint of unruliness.

This further confirms that Xiao Lin is Xiao Clan Descendants.

"Excellent! Excellent!! Excellent indeed!! I never imagined that after a thousand years, such a dragon among men could be born among the descendants of my Xiao Clan!"

Overwhelmed with excitement, Xiao Xuan even uttered "good" three times.

"Ancestor, you flatter me. I have only reached this point today through a few strokes of luck. Besides, if I am not mistaken, ancestor, you should have already seen through my cultivation level, right?"

Xiao Lin remained quite humble in front of his ancestor.

Furthermore, seeing his ancestor's excited expression, Xiao Lin knew that his cultivation level had likely been exposed to the other party.

Otherwise, how could he have received such high praise from his own ancestors?

"Late-Stage Eight-Star Dou Sheng with Emperor Realm Soul! I think if you wanted to hide yourself normally, even Gu Yuan and Hun Tiandi wouldn't be able to see through you, right?"

Xiao Xuan said confidently.

Before breaking through with the combined strength of the entire clan, he, Gu Yuan, and Hun Tiandi were all equally matched.

Therefore, Xiao Xuan naturally knew that Gu Yuan and the Hun Tiandi could not see through Xiao Lin's true cultivation level.

After a brief pause, Xiao Xuan continued, "If I'm not mistaken, you must have concealed your identity and entered the Heavenly Tomb through a transaction with Gu Yuan, right?"

Otherwise, given your strength, the Gu Clans are unlikely to let you in to find me.

"Also, I'm curious why you've concealed your appearance?"

Looking at Xiao Lin in front of him, Xiao Xuan guessed some things, but at the same time, he also had some doubts.
