Xiao Xuan and Xiao Chen

The one secretly watching Xiao Yan and his companions was naturally the Heavenly Tomb Spirit.

At this inopportune time, someone forcibly broke into the Heavenly Tomb, and among them was Gu Yuan, a Nine-Star Dou Saint. Do you think the Heavenly Tomb Spirit wouldn't be nervous?

Who knows what Gu Yuan was going to do in the Heavenly Tomb?

However, the Heavenly Tomb Spirit also knew that Gu Yuan was not Soul Body within the Heavenly Tomb, and even if he were incredibly powerful, he wouldn't be able to sense Gu Yuan's presence.

Therefore, he is only on guard for the time being.

Gu Yuan, on the other hand, remained completely calm and composed, acting as if he was still unaware of the existence of the Heavenly Tomb Spirit.

And so, the four of them proceeded smoothly, quickly passing through the first and second levels of the Heavenly Tomb, reaching the Third Layer of the Heavenly Tomb level, and heading straight for the deepest part of the third level!

On the other side, in the deepest part of the Third Layer of the Heavenly Tomb, an endless darkness reigns.

In this darkness, only a tombstone that seemed to have stood for countless years stood.

This is naturally the location of Xiao Xuan's tomb.

Since being persuaded by Xiao Lin to give up the idea of confronting the Heavenly Tomb Spirit, Xiao Xuan has been living a rather relaxed life.

After all, there were two descendants of his clansmen whom he placed high hopes on in the outside world.

It can only be said that once one has hope for the future, the pessimism in one's heart will gradually dissipate.

If one had to say, for Xiao Xuan now, the only thing that's really boring is the environment inside the Heavenly Tomb.

In addition, the petty Heavenly Tomb Spirit did not want him to leave his tomb and disrupt the balance within the Heavenly Tomb, so most of the time he could only stay in his own tomb.

Occasionally, after gathering enough power, he could create a clone to wander around outside the Heavenly Tomb.

For the majority of the rest of the time, he could only sit in his tomb, lost in thought.

Because special beings like him cannot cultivate.

Fortunately, aside from being boring, there wasn't much else to it.

Places like the Heavenly Tomb seem boring, but they really are...

But for those who have expectations, even the most boring days can be endured.

He's already endured a thousand years, hasn't he?

Since it is not the correct time for the Heavenly Tomb to open, Xiao Xuan, who stayed in the tomb this time and did not infiltrate his own power, was unaware that Xiao Yan and the others had entered the Heavenly Tomb again to find him.

After all, even the most bored person couldn't possibly keep track of every single thing the Heavenly Tomb does, right?

He's not the Heavenly Tomb Spirit!

On this day, Xiao Xuan, as he usually did most of the time, stood in front of the pond he had carved out in his tomb, lost in thought.

However, as he was lost in thought, Xiao Xuan suddenly paused, his expression turning serious.

"Hmm, someone is approaching my tombstone..."

Sensing the change in the outside world, Xiao Xuan frowned slightly.

In fact, those special Soul Body still living in the Heavenly Tomb are all seasoned veterans.

They couldn't possibly be unaware of Xiao Xuan's power and influence.

That was a terrifying existence that even those who held their lives in their hands feared!

Therefore, under normal circumstances, no Soul Body dares to approach Xiao Xuan's tomb.

Because that's no different from courting death.

Although Xiao Xuan was not a bloodthirsty person, he had at least stood at the pinnacle of the Dou Qi Continent during his lifetime, and naturally he had his own pride and an authority that would not tolerate any provocation.

In the entire Heavenly Tomb, apart from the Heavenly Tomb Spirit, who dares to act presumptuously before him?

That's why Xiao Xuan found it strange that someone was approaching his tomb at this time.

"Could it be that a newly born Soul Body from the Heavenly Tomb accidentally wandered in?"

Xiao Xuan couldn't help but mutter to himself.

However, despite his many questions, he still had to go and see what was going on.

"Buzz~"

Immediately, Xiao Xuan's figure began to become illusory.

Before long, he came outside and saw the state of his own tombstone.

At this moment, four figures stood quietly in front of his tombstone.

"That's... Xiao Yan, Xun'er, and that old guy Gu Yuan. Strange, why would they enter the Heavenly Tomb at this time? And Gu Yuan even came in person?"

A look of confusion appeared on Xiao Xuan's face.

Of course, while seeing Xiao Yan, Xun'er, and Gu Yuan only puzzled Xiao Xuan, he was completely stunned when he noticed the last figure.

At this moment, in the deepest part of the Third Layer of the Heavenly Tomb, a figure with a face full of sorrow was quietly looking at the tombstone in front of him.

Behind him, three other figures stood silently without saying a word.

At the same time, above the ancient tombstone, accompanied by a distortion in the Void, a dashing figure slowly emerged.

In fact, at first glance, Xiao Xuan did not recognize the person who was looking at his tombstone with a sorrowful expression.

However, upon closer inspection, an incredibly familiar feeling welled up in his heart!

At this moment, Gu Yuan and Xiao Yan had already noticed Xiao Xuan after he appeared.

Xun'er, following the gazes of her father and her Brother Xiao Yan, also noticed Xiao Xuan's figure.

However, they all knew that the time that followed belonged to those two people...

Only Xiao Chen's gaze seemed fixed on the tombstone, his mind blank, completely absorbed in his own world, utterly unaware of the familiar figure slowly descending above him.

At this moment, Xiao Xuan also almost ignored Xiao Yan and the other two, staring at Xiao Chen with disbelief in his eyes.

Judging from Xiao Xuan's expression, it was as if he was afraid that everything he was seeing was an illusion.

That makes sense.

After all, in Xiao Xuan's understanding, the person in front of him had died a thousand years ago!

However, the thought that someone was already dead was now standing alive in front of his own tombstone, mourning him, which gave him a truly indescribable feeling.

Finally, Xiao Xuan slowly descended from mid-air to Xiao Chen's side.

However, Xiao Chen remained completely oblivious.

Until...

"Brother Chen..."

A voice so familiar that Xiao Chen would never forget it rang in his ears, tinged with a hoarseness.

At that moment, Xiao Chen's entire body trembled involuntarily.

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Chen's wandering thoughts finally came back to him, and he turned his head slightly.

What catches the eye is that familiar smile that always seems to embrace me.

His eyes began to well up with tears, his breathing became erratic, and Xiao Chen's lips trembled slightly. Finally, after a thousand years, he uttered that long-lost address once more. "Brother Xuan..."
