Chapter 486 Gu Lan
"I wonder if I have anything to discuss with you, senior?"
Xiao Ze, the bow of the warship, raised his hand and said to the white-bearded old man.
"You're welcome. You have reached the Dou Sheng level now. There is not that big a gap between us. Just call me Gu Lan."
The old man said with a smile.
Xiao Ze hesitated for a moment and then praised: "Senior Gu Lan."
"That's all, it's just a title. Xiao Ze, you are the first person from the Xiao clan to set foot in the ancient world again in so many years."
Hearing this, Xiao Ze's thoughts moved slightly. The younger generation of the ancient clan may not know his true identity, but these elders of the ancient clan.
They may all have witnessed the battle a thousand years ago. These elders also knew that Xun'er went to the Xiao family, so they knew Xiao Ze's identity very well.
"Speaking of which, you have already reached the level of Fighting Saint at your current age, and you are even more talented and beautiful than your ancestor Xiao Xuan."
Seeing that Xiao Ze remained unmoved, Gu Lan sighed softly and took the initiative to talk about Xiao Xuan, the ancestor of the Xiao family.
"Senior Gu Lan is overrated. I am lucky to be able to reach Dou Sheng. I am not as good as Ancestor Xiao Xuan. After all, Dou Sheng becomes more and more difficult the further you go. Maybe I will stay at a certain level of Dou Sheng in this life."
Xiao Ze shook his head and said with a smile: "Senior Gu Lan, if you have something to do, just get straight to the point. My mind is not that fragile and I cannot bear the slightest words."
"Haha, okay, I am a bit narrow-minded."
Gu Lan laughed and immediately said to Xiao Ze.
"I don't have any ill intentions when I come here this time. I just want to tell you what the elders of the ancient clan think of the Xiao family and you."
"Senior, please let me know."
"Since you already know that Xiao Xuan is the ancestor of the Xiao family, how much do you know about the battle between the Xiao family and the Soul Clan?"
Xiao Ze shook his head. The original work did not describe the battle between the Xiao Clan and the Soul Clan in detail.
"Back then, Xiao Xuan, the patriarch of the Xiao clan, noticed that the Xiao family's Dou Emperor bloodline was getting weaker and weaker, reaching a point of no return, so he planned to gather the power of the entire clan to break through the Dou Emperor and rekindle the Xiao clan's Dou Emperor bloodline."
"And the location chosen by the Xiao clan is the Heavenly Tomb!"
"The Heavenly Tomb was originally the place where the Ancient World and the Xiao Realm meet. It is shared by the two clans. The Xiao Clan wants to break through the Dou Emperor in the Heavenly Tomb, and many people in the Ancient Clan also have opinions."
"So the patriarch at that time made an agreement with Xiao Xuan. Xiao Xuan would donate the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade held by the Xiao family to the ancient clan, and the clan leader agreed on behalf of the ancient clan to let Xiao Xuan enter the Heavenly Tomb to break through the Dou Emperor. "
When Xiao Ze heard this, his eyes narrowed slightly.
If Gu Lan did not lie, then the piece of Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade currently held by the Xiao family should belong to the ancient clan.
After all, the ancestor Xiao Xuan had promised to give it to the ancient clan in exchange for the opportunity to break through the celestial tomb.
"Then why can our clan still possess the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade?"
"Alas, this is exactly where the clan elders have a dispute with the Xiao family."
Gu Lan sighed lightly and then continued: "Although Xiao Xuan agreed, there is one condition, that is, after the promotion ceremony is held, the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade will be handed over to the ancient tribe."
"Xiao Xuan's consideration at the time may have been that if he succeeded and became the Dou Emperor, the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade would be useless to the Xiao clan."
"If it fails, the Xiao clan will decline from now on. Holding the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade will be guiltless. It is a crime to possess the jade, so it is better to give it to the ancient clan."
"Although there may be some objections among the ancient clan, and they are worried that there will be an accident and they will not be able to obtain the ancient jade, the clan leader took into account Xiao Xuan's kindness to the ancient clan, so he directly agreed."
"But it was such a coincidence that Xiao Xuan failed to break through the Dou Emperor by gathering the power of his entire family's bloodline, and was besieged by many powerful people from the Soul Clan led by the Soul Emperor."
"In the end, Xiao Xuan self-destructed three kinds of strange fire and physical body, killing and seriously injuring many powerful people in the Soul Clan."
"Before Xiao Xuan died, he also opened a random transmission channel to allow those members of the Xiao clan who had lost the power of their blood to leave through the space channel."
"The Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade was also taken away by the remaining Xiao clan members..."
"So, Senior Gulan, are you saying that some elders from the ancient clan want to take back the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade?"
Xiao Ze's eyes narrowed slightly. When he heard about the battle that destroyed the Xiao clan, he felt a little more disgust and hatred towards the Soul clan.
"Indeed, the Ancient Clan has been constantly looking for traces of the Xiao Clan over the years. It was not until recent years that the Ancient Clan determined that the location of the Xiao Clan was Wutan City in the Jiama Empire."
"It's just that the Xiao clan, which was once at the pinnacle of the continent, has now declined to the point where the clan leader is just a great fighting master."
"Under such circumstances, the patriarch did not seize the ancient jade by force, but sent Miss Xun'er to the Xiao family."
When Gu Lan said this, he glanced at Xiao Ze.
After all, when Xiao Ze heard this, he must have understood that Xun'er's original purpose of going to the Xiao family was not simple.
However, Xiao Ze's expression was calm, which made Gu Lan slightly stunned.
Soon after he figured it out, it seemed that the young lady had informed Xiao Ze in advance and the two parties had reconciled.
Xiao Ze hesitated for a moment, then shook his head, "I don't have the ancient jade, and I can't make the decision. The current patriarch of the Xiao family is still my father."
Gu Lan smiled. He didn't expect Xiao Ze to hand over the ancient jade willingly with his words.
"Don't worry. Although there is a loud voice among the ancient clan to seize ancient jade from the Xiao family, the opposition voice represented by Miss Xun'er is even louder. The ancient clan will not take action against the Xiao family until the clan leader speaks."
Hearing this, Xiao Ze also breathed a sigh of relief. The current situation is different from that in the original work. It will inevitably arouse the fear of the elders of the ancient clan and forcefully take action.
But now it seems that Xun'er still has a strong voice, and can even be compared with the elders of the faction that captured the ancient jade.
Before Gu Yuan showed his opinion, the Xiao family's ancient jade was extremely stable.
"The other thing is the relationship between you and the young lady. Now that you have become a fighting saint, in fact, most of the elders in the ancient clan will not have much objection to it."
"After all, at the Dou Sheng level, one can already ignore the Dou Emperor bloodline."
“But there are always some people who are stubborn.”
Xiao Ze's eyes moved slightly. It seemed that there were indeed many benefits to joining the Ancient Clan after his own strength was raised to the Dou Sheng level.
At least the resistance he encountered was much smaller than in Xiao Yan's original work.
Not only was there no trouble from the younger generation, but even the elders of the ancient tribe recognized him.
After all, such a young Fighting Saint is extremely rare even among ancient tribes.
As for the few stubborn elders, Xiao Ze didn't have much to do.
After all, he doesn't have heaven-level fighting skills and can be liked by everyone.
The elder Gu Lan in front of him was obviously not that small group of stubborn elders.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have told him so much, even the battle between the Xiao Clan and the Soul Clan in ancient times.
With Elder Gu Lan revealing the details, Xiao Ze breathed a sigh of relief and became more confident about the situation of the ancient clan.
"Thank you Elder Gulan for informing me, Xiao Ze, please keep it in mind!"
Xiao Ze held up his hands very wisely and said, "Elder Gu Lan, if you have any need for elixirs, you can come to me."
"Hahaha, if Mr. Xiao Ze says this, I won't be polite."
Elder Gu Lan said in surprise. Isn't it because of this promise that he took the lead in establishing a good relationship with Xiao Ze?
The Ninth Grade Medicine Refining Grand Master, the temptation is too great!
