Damn! I Still Can't See Through Grandpa!
Today, when Xiao Lin met his grandson and ancestors in his original identity, he specially prepared a whole fish feast!
Steamed fish, braised fish, fish with chopped chili, fish with Phoebe drop soup, fish balls, fish cakes, fish cakes, fish soup, cold fish salad, fried fish slices, and so on—the sight of these dishes made Xiao Yan and Xiao Chen's eyes twitch.
At their current level, they are actually able to abstain from food and practice fasting.
Unfortunately, Xiao Lin suddenly had a whim today and just wanted to have a whole fish feast!
Of course, all the ingredients for this all-fish feast came from the fishpond that Xiao Lin had just blown up...
This shows just how deep Xiao Lin's resentment towards the fish is today!
However, to be fair, the three of them, who rarely eat these days, thoroughly enjoyed the whole fish feast.
After a satisfying meal, the three of them sat down and chatted.
"Ancestor, please forgive us for our poor hospitality today."
His ancestors had witnessed him being breached by the air force, and even with Xiao Lin's thick skin, he couldn't help but feel slightly embarrassed when he thought about it now.
He was simply a little taken aback by Xiao Yan's seemingly mocking gaze.
From now on, he will never touch fishing again!
Wouldn't it be better to use that time to play chess by yourself?
Xiao Lin made a silent vow in his heart.
I'm definitely not going to fish anymore; only a fool would fish!
"Haha, it's nothing. I've been hearing Xiao Yan, Xiao Ding, and Xiao Li talk about their grandfather. I didn't expect you to be such an interesting person. There were quite a few Elders with similar personalities to you in the Xiao Clan a thousand years ago."
Xiao Chen waved his hand dismissively.
Compared to when he was in front of Xiao Lin's alias "Lin Xiao", Xiao Chen was noticeably more relaxed when he was actually with Xiao Lin.
After all, to Xiao Chen, Lin Xiao had nothing to do with him, while Xiao Lin was his junior!
Can this be the same as their way of getting along?
Upon hearing Xiao Chen mention the Xiao Clan from a thousand years ago, Xiao Lin paused for a moment before breaking into a smile.
"Ancestor, rest assured, my Xiao Household will surely regain its former glory, and it won't be long before that happens, I guarantee it!"
Xiao Lin said solemnly.
"Yes, ancestor, the day Grandpa spoke of will surely come!"
Xiao Yan chimed in at this moment.
Unlike his grandfather, Xiao Yan didn't have a god-like perspective. All he had was the determination to lead the Xiao Household to rise again!
I believe in you!
Seeing the serious expressions on Xiao Lin and Xiao Yan's faces, Xiao Chen inexplicably chose to believe them.
Even though the Xiao Household no longer has Dou Emperor Bloodlines except for him and Xiao Yan, he still believes!
Then, the three of them suddenly looked at each other and smiled.
As members of the same clan, the three chatted without any sense of distance.
This is completely different from when Xiao Lin interacted with the two of them earlier under the name "Lin Xiao".
The three of them talked a lot, about the Hun Clan, about them, and about the entire Xiao Household!
Ancestor, what are your plans for the future?
After chatting for a while, Xiao Lin asked.
"Me? What plans could I possibly have? I was supposed to be someone who faced the calamity of the Xiao Clan a thousand years ago. Now that I've been fortunate enough to survive, my only thought is to avenge the Hun Clan and then revive the Xiao Clan!"
As he said this, it seemed as if a flame was burning in Xiao Chen's pupils!
"Ancestor, this is a matter for all of us in the Xiao Household. What I want to ask is, what are your personal plans?"
Xiao Lin was speechless at his ancestor's obvious desire to dedicate his later years to the Xiao Household.
In Xiao Lin's view, a person can do anything for his family, but he cannot live only for his family!
This idea was instilled in the entire clan by Xiao Lin after he became the Xiao Household leader.
He knew that Xiao Chen was still blaming himself for not being able to participate in the war that wiped out the Xiao Clan a thousand years ago, but he didn't want the other person to live with guilt forever.
It's best to resolve this kind of inner conflict as soon as possible.
Otherwise, Xiao Chen's entire life might have been bound by this.
Once a person has a mental block, even breaking through in cultivation can become a very dangerous thing!
Xiao Chen is currently at the Mid-Stage Five-Star Dou Sheng. This strength is not weak, but it is not strong either.
If possible, Xiao Lin naturally hoped that his ancestor's strength could be increased further.
But given the opponent's current mindset, the risk of breaking through is too high!
This was certainly not what Xiao Lin wanted to see.
"My personal plans? What's the difference?"
Upon hearing Xiao Lin mention it, Xiao Chen was taken aback at first, then asked in confusion.
"Of course! Ancestor, I know you can do anything for the Xiao Household, but I also hope that you can have your own life. The destruction of the Xiao Clan a thousand years ago was not your responsibility. You don't need to restrain your own personality."
If you have time, I hope you can travel around the Dou Qi Continent and see the sights.
By the way, our Xiao Household's current foundation is still entirely located in the Northwest Continent.
My son, Xiao Zhan, the current patriarch of the Xiao Household and Xiao Yan's father, is currently in the Northwest Continent preparing to move the Xiao Household to the Central Plains after the Soul Hall is destroyed.
I imagine you haven't met any other members of the Xiao Household yet, ancestor?
If you're interested, you can go check it out!
Xiao Lin then offered his suggestion.
"Hmm? Now that you mention it, it's true. I haven't met any of the other members of the Xiao Household yet!"
Sure enough, after Xiao Lin mentioned it, Xiao Chen immediately became interested.
He had already planned to dedicate the rest of his life to the Xiao Household, but now he's completely ignoring everyone else in the Xiao Household. He deserves to die!
At this moment, Xiao Chen couldn't help but feel a pang of self-reproach.
In the Original Work, many members of the Xiao Household died because of the Misty Cloud Sect, but this incident did not occur in this life.
Therefore, over the years, the Xiao Household family has become increasingly prosperous!
If you count all the collateral branches, there are definitely tens of thousands of people in the clan.
Moreover, the Xiao Household is still growing stronger!
For Xiao Lin, it was a good thing that his ancestors had something to do.
Now, Xiao Chen has made a decision: after destroying the Soul Hall, he will go to the Northwest Continent to help the Xiao Household relocate to the Central Plains!
Xiao Chen already had an idea about this matter.
As for Xiao Yan, who was standing to the side, he was also happy for his ancestor.
However, while watching his grandfather and his ancestors chat, Xiao Yan suddenly remembered that he seemed to have forgotten something.
Immediately, Xiao Yan subconsciously sent a wisp of his soul power toward his grandfather.
"Buzz~"
However, his soul force was immediately repelled the moment it touched his grandfather.
Damn it!
What happened?
He's already Six-Star Dou Sheng, so how come he still can't see through his grandfather's cultivation level?
