Strictly speaking, the Xiao family was once a powerful family, an aristocratic family that was older and more powerful than the Shentu family, with a thousand years of inheritance history.

There have also been great masters in the history of the Xiao family, who are much more powerful than Shen Tuce.

Every Xiao family is proud of the glorious history of the Xiao family. The family glory that has been passed down through countless years of history has almost been integrated into the bones of the Xiao family.

But time is always so ruthless. No matter how brilliant or powerful a family is, it may decline after a thousand years.

The Xiao family is just one of many families eliminated by history.

Among the many declining families, the Xiao family is in a pretty good situation. You know, some families were more glorious and powerful than the Xiao family at the time, but now they may have been exterminated and no one of them survived.

No matter what, the Xiao family did have a glorious history, and it is the oldest family in the entire Tongzhou Prefecture.

Although this ancient family has declined and declined, and no one even remembers its former glory, the Xiao family will never forget it because it is the only place they deserve to be proud of.

Xiao Zhantian thought that the Xiao family would continue to decline, but eventually became lost in the public, but now he saw hope again!

"Haha... Haha! Our family has hope! Second brother, our family has hope!" Xiao Zhantian couldn't help laughing, his whole body trembled, as if he was crazy, but as he smiled, two lines of tears slid out of the corners of his eyes.

Xiao Yan stared at Xiao Zhantian in a daze: "Uncle."

Xiao Xiner also looked at Xiao Zhantian in confusion: "Uncle Xiao."

"Brother!" Xiao Yan could not understand Xiao Zhantian's emotions, but Xiao Ding understood very well, because he also had the same feeling as Xiao Zhantian, "Yes, you said that's right, our family has hope!"

He clenched his hands into fists, and felt a sense of excitement and irresistible excitement in his heart: "If my father knew about this, he would be very happy!"

Xiao Wuwei has been working hard for the rise of the Xiao family throughout his life, which seems to have become his mission and his lifelong obsession.

It is precisely because of this obsession and longing for the glorious past that he valued the ancestors so much. Therefore, the performance of the elders of the Xiao family and others when various families came to him was bullied, which caused such a huge blow to him.

He dreamed that he would lead the rise of the Xiao family, hoping that he would see a brilliant Xiao family in his lifetime. However, no matter how hard he tried, he could not see any hope. The performance of his tribesmen hit him deeply, and now he is even a little discouraged.

"It's a pity that my father didn't come." Xiao Zhantian's eyes darkened and he said with regret.

Shen Tuce, Tengguang and Wei Hai next to him were looking at Xiao Zhantian and Xiao Ding curiously.

They are not Xiao's family, so it is naturally difficult to understand the special feelings in the hearts of Xiao's family.

Xiao Ding shook his head, looked at Xiao Yan, and said solemnly: "Yan'er, you should know that our Xiao family was once a brilliant and powerful family!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan nodded.

Every Xiao family's child remembers the glorious history of the Xiao family very clearly. Although he does not know the specific situation, he can be sure that when the Xiao family was the most powerful, it even occupied a slight weight in the entire wilderness continent.

"Since hundreds of years ago, our Xiao family has become increasingly declining. The ancestors worked hard to manage it, hoping that one day they will be able to regain their glory. For hundreds of years, the Xiao family has been working hard for this for generations. Your grandfather and your grandfather have devoted their lives to the Xiao family." Xiao Ding took a deep breath and said in a low voice: "If nothing unexpected happens, your uncle and I will shoulder this responsibility in the future and revitalize the glory of the Xiao family. This is not only the expectation of our ancestors, but also the wish of every child of our Xiao family!"

Xiao Yan listened quietly.

Shen Tuce, Tengguang and others around him also listened with great interest.

"A few years ago, you just came into contact with cultivation and showed amazing talent. Do you know how happy your grandfather was at that time?" Xiao Ding still remembers Xiao Wuwei's excited and excited appearance at that time. His voice was trembling. "At that time, all of us were very excited, because after so many years, we finally saw hope, the hope of the rise of the Xiao family!"

Xiao Yan didn't say anything. He could imagine how happy the grandfather, father and others were at that time.

Unfortunately, his amazing talent was like a flash in the pan, and it disappeared soon after.

"But God is so cruel. When we were most excited, we suddenly took away our hope." Xiao Ding clenched his fists, his voice heavier, "The news that you suddenly cannot practice is like a bolt from the blue, catching everyone off guard..."

At that time, Xiao Yan was at the trough of his life, suffering and despair. However, Xiao Wuwei and others were more painful and despair than him!

Xiao Yan was silent. He could vaguely feel the mood of his father, grandfather and others at that time.

"For several years, we have tried our best to pay any price to help you solve your problems, but it is useless, one year, two years, three years... we are slowly despairing and almost giving up." Xiao Ding's eyes were exhausted, and it is conceivable what kind of pressure he has been under in the past few years.

Suddenly, he raised his head, his emotions also became excited, and a hint of excitement appeared on his face: "But we never expected that you would join the Sky Academy in disguise. Now, you not only solved the problem of being unable to practice, but also showed a more terrifying talent. In more than ten days, from the third level of Qixuan to the eighth level of Qixuan... Such talent is simply unheard of. It is not an exaggeration to say that you are the first genius of the Zhou Dynasty."

Xiao Ding looked at Xiao Yan with excitement and gratitude.

He was not afraid of outsiders around him at all, and he was not at all implicit in praise of Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan deserves such praise from him!

Xiao Yan touched his nose, not knowing what to say. It was the first time he heard his father's straightforward praise from him when he grew up so old.

"Xiao Yan!" Xiao Ding's tone was very solemn. He even called Xiao Yan's name directly, which made people feel particularly serious. "You have grown up, and I no longer treat you as a child. Remember, from today on, you will be the pillar of our Xiao family's future! It will depend on you to revitalize the former glory of the Xiao family!"

He knew that his talent was mediocre, and he might end up practicing to the upper level of the vortex in this life.

Xiao Zhantian's talent is almost the same as his, and his future achievements are very limited.

Compared with them, the rest of the Xiao family were even more unbearable and could not count on them.

The only thing they can rely on now is Xiao Yan. Only Xiao Yan has the hope of shouldering this important task and revitalizing the former glory of the Xiao family!

"Me? Can I do it?" Xiao Yan hesitated and suddenly shouldered the heavy responsibility. He couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

"For more than ten days, from the third level of Qixuan to the eighth level of Qixuan. If you don't do it, no one will go. Xiao Yan's nephew, don't underestimate yourself." Xiao Zhantian laughed. He was very confident in Xiao Yan. He still felt a little unreal when he was so shocking that his cultivation speed was still a little unreal. But Xiao Yan's current cultivation level is indeed the eighth level of Qixuan. This is certain, and now it is only more than ten days before he left last time.

"Xiao Yan, as a child of the Xiao family, you must shoulder this responsibility!" Xiao Ding looked at Xiao Yan seriously, his voice even seemed a little stern, full of expectations, "Your grandfather, your grandfather, Xiao family ancestors have been looking forward to revitalizing the Xiao family! This is not only your grandfather's wish, but also my wish! Xiao Yan, remember, for me, for your grandfather, and for the Xiao family ancestors, you must shoulder this responsibility, and you must succeed!"

The Xiao family has been in decline for too long. If they continue to decline like this, they will sooner or later be submerged in the vast history and turn into a speck of dust.

After hearing Xiao Ding's stern words, Xiao Yan's heart trembled. He could fully understand Xiao Ding's deep expectations.

After a moment of silence, Xiao Yan slowly raised his head and said solemnly: "Father, I promise you that you will work hard to revive the Xiao family and let the Xiao family regain its former glory!"

"It's not hard work, it's a must!"

"Yes." Xiao Yan took a deep breath, his clear eyes full of determination, "I will definitely revive the Xiao family!"

Xiao Ding's expression suddenly became gentle, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face: "Yan'er, I believe in you!"

This smile may be Xiao Ding's happiest and relaxed smile in decades. The pressure that has been under his heart for many years has quietly dissipated.

He seemed to have seen the rise of the Xiao family and the reappearance of the Xiao family.

"Yan'er, don't blame your father for being cruel. It's really... Dad is just a waste. He wants to revive the Xiao family, but he can't do anything. He can only watch the Xiao family decline day after day..." Xiao Ding sighed and put the burden on his son. Of course, he felt very distressed, but he had no other way.

Xiao Yan shook his head and smiled and said, "Dad, you need not say anything, I understand."

Xiao Ding looked at his calm and smiling son and couldn't help but pat the latter on the shoulder: "Good boy, dad, I'm sorry."

"Okay, second brother, you'd better stop talking. Xiao Yan is so sensible, he will definitely understand you." Xiao Zhantian interrupted with a smile: "To be honest, I really envy you. I have such a sensible and genius son. My bastard is far from Xiao Yan."

Upon hearing this, a hint of pride appeared on Xiao Ding's face.

Xiao Zhantian has been disagreeing with him for many years and has never said anything good to him. But today, Xiao Zhantian praised Xiao Yan so much. How can he be unhappy and unpride?

"I, Xiao Ding, have no ability in my life, but I have a son, an amazing son!"

Xiao Ding was full of pride. He felt that the most correct decision in his life was to marry Xiao Yan's mother and give birth to Xiao Yan's son.

"Uncle is joking. Xiao Ning's cousin is not bad at talent and is very popular. I'm just lucky." Xiao Yan maintained his usual modesty.

He and Xiao Ning had no friendship, and even had some small conflicts, but they were not as good as evil.

Xiao Zhantian shook his head, everyone knew exactly what the truth was.

Xiao Ding suddenly frowned: "Brother, have we forgotten something?" He felt vaguely that he seemed to have forgotten something important.

"Strange, when you say it, I feel this way too." Xiao Zhantian said in confusion.

The two looked at each other, and after a few seconds, they immediately reacted, and then looked behind them in a panic. Xiao Ding was so anxious that he was incoherent: "Sorry, sorry, senior, I just saw my son, I was so excited that I almost forgot about you..."
