The Xiao Household Will Be Protected by Me From Now On!

"Ah, he just advanced to Dou Venerable not long before returning to the Xiao Household."

Xiao Lin, however, remained remarkably calm.

However, as Xiao Lin confirmed it again, the patriarch Xiao Dongcheng's breathing became rapid.

"Huff, huff~, I need some peace and quiet."

Clan Chief Xiao Dongcheng tried his best to suppress his trembling emotions as he spoke.

At this moment, Xiao Lin certainly wouldn't ask, "Who is Jingjing?" without considering the atmosphere.

Finally, after an unknown amount of time, clan leader Xiao Dongcheng slowly accepted the fact that had almost turned his mind into mush.

"How did you manage to do that?"

Feeling a bit thirsty, Xiao Dongcheng took a sip of tea to moisten his throat and then eagerly asked the question.

"How did they do that? How can I explain it? They just kept cultivating and cultivated, and suddenly they reached the Dou Venerable— "

After scratching his head, Xiao Lin suddenly didn't know where to begin.

However, this very reason earned him a disdainful look from the clan leader Xiao Dongcheng.

Is it possible to go from Dou Ling to Dou Venerable in less than twenty years through cultivation?

Then even the Dou Venerable on the entire continent would be less than dogs!

But in reality, Xiao Lin wasn't lying.

After all, he was a cultivation fanatic, and with that "tiny bit" of talent, he achieved what he has today.

"Forget it, maybe everyone has different talents. You're probably one of those exceptionally gifted kids."

Seeing Xiao Lin's expression of racking his brains and not knowing how to explain, the clan leader Xiao Dongcheng kindly spoke up.

It's not fair to blame Xiao Lin for keeping things from the clan leader, Xiao Dongcheng.

He really couldn't reveal the truth about awakening his Past-Life Wisdom!

However, this makes it impossible to explain why his cultivation speed suddenly increased.

However, Xiao Lin probably still wanted to give the clan leader, Xiao Dongcheng, a little surprise.

After the other party had accepted the fact that he had become Dou Venerable, Xiao Lin dropped another bombshell.

"Oh, by the way, clan leader, my current soul realm has also reached the Mid-Heavenly Realm."

Xiao Lin said something that was sure to shock people.

Xiao Dongcheng: "!!!!!!"

If this were in the world where Xiao Lin lived in his previous life, Xiao Dongcheng would probably have already shouted, "I need nitroglycerin!"

Unlike some people with low cultivation levels in Dou Qi arts who don't even know what soul power is.

Because the Xiao Household were once wealthy, Xiao Dongcheng, as the patriarch, although he is only at the Dou Ling level now, obviously knows something about soul power.

The Heavenly Realm Soul Power is something that even some low-star Dou Sheng do not possess.

Xiao Lin now possesses not only the Soul Power the Heavenly Mirror Soul, but is also at the Mid-Heavenly Realm!

How could the clan leader, Xiao Dongcheng, not find this surreal?

"Xiao Lin, do you think I'm still half asleep? Am I hallucinating?"

Once again, Xiao Dongcheng had doubts about this.

Xiao Lin's self-disclosure was simply too shocking!

First, he was Dou Venerable, then he possessed the Mid-Heavenly Realm Soul Power.

This is similar to playing Dou Dizhu (a popular Chinese card game) where you first play four twos, then play a royal flush.

Xiao Dongcheng felt his heart couldn't take it anymore.

"Clan leader, you heard me right. I'm currently only One-Star Dou Venerable with Mid-Heavenly Realm Soul Power. That's just so-so. At most, I can only fight Mid-Level Dou Venerable."

Yes, this is Xiao Lin's Versailles!

However, these words left the clan leader, Xiao Dongcheng, feeling momentarily bewildered.

What do you mean by "only able to fight Mid-Level Dou Venerable"?

Listen to what people are saying.

Right now, clan leader Xiao Dongcheng was clutching his chest, trying his best to calm down his indescribable emotions.

One is a surprise, two turn into a shock.

After the clan leader Xiao Dongcheng finally accepted this fact, the way he looked at Xiao Lin was as if he were looking at a monster.

That's for sure!

In less than twenty years, he soared from Dou Ling to Dou Venerable, and even his soul realm improved to the Mid-Heavenly Realm. Is he even human?

In the mind of clan leader Xiao Dongcheng, Xiao Lin had already surpassed all their ancestors by more than ten times.

Although the Xiao Household's history has not been completely severed, it can actually only be traced back to about nine hundred years ago at most.

No information about the Xiao Clan has been passed down.

Therefore, in Xiao Dongcheng's eyes, Xiao Lin had naturally surpassed all his ancestors.

"Xiao Lin, you----"

Perhaps it was because Xiao Lin's strength far exceeded his expectations that, for a moment, the clan leader Xiao Dongcheng didn't know what to say.

Seeing this, Xiao Lin silently swallowed back the fact that he had originally wanted to say that he was Five-Rank Spirit Array Master.

This is the Battle Through the Heavens World. Nowadays, most people don't know what a Spirit Array Master. Even if Xiao Lin explained it, the clan leader Xiao Dongcheng would probably only have a vague understanding.

Secondly, Xiao Lin was genuinely afraid that these successive self-disclosures would frighten the clan leader Xiao Dongcheng, to the point of fainting.

Then he would truly be a sinner.

Therefore, Xiao Lin gave up on revealing that he was Five-Rank Spirit Array Master.

"Chieftain, are you surprised? Are you taken aback?"

Seeing that the clan leader Xiao Dongcheng didn't know what to say, Xiao Lin suddenly asked jokingly.

Seeing Xiao Lin's somewhat mischievous appearance, the clan leader Xiao Dongcheng suddenly smiled.

Yes, he was pleasantly surprised and also quite taken aback. Is this okay now?

"Xiao Lin, you are very good, really very good. The Xiao Household is blessed to have you!"

Finally, the clan leader Xiao Dongcheng, uttered these words.

Despite possessing such formidable strength, Xiao Lin's attitude towards the Xiao Household and himself remained consistent, instantly dispelling the slight sense of unfamiliarity that Patriarch Xiao Dongcheng had just felt towards Xiao Lin.

Yes, just now, upon realizing how strong Xiao Lin had suddenly become, Clan Chief Xiao Dongcheng suddenly found himself not recognizing Xiao Lin at all.

This is actually quite easy to understand.

It's like two poor kids who grew up together, one of whom suddenly becomes rich.

The other person, wouldn't they feel unfamiliar with their more successful peers?

But how keen was Xiao Lin's observation?

He had been watching every move of Clan Chief Xiao Dongcheng!

Therefore, he would ultimately use this method to dispel the other party's doubts.

"Clan leader, you're mistaken. I also share the surname Xiao and am a member of the Xiao Household! Therefore, I will naturally share the Xiao Household's honor and disgrace!"

At this point, Xiao Lin paused, glanced at the weathered face of the clan leader Xiao Dongcheng, finally made up his mind, and then spoke again.

"Clan leader, you've protected the Xiao Household for so many years, I imagine you're tired. From now on, I'll take over the protection of the Xiao Household!"

As Xiao Lin finished speaking, Clan Chief Xiao Dongcheng seemed to realize something and immediately revealed a joyful expression!
