Chapter 545: Xiao Xuan

Xiao Ming approached the ancient tomb and bowed respectfully.

"This descendant Xiao Ming greets the Ancestor."

"Don't bother with the formalities..."

A faint laugh echoed around him. Lifting his head, Xiao Ming saw a figure dressed in green. He was leaning leisurely against the tomb. The man's disheveled black hair cascaded over his shoulders, and his carefree demeanor was accentuated by a gentle, welcoming smile. The gentle smile on his face gave one the feeling of being bathed in a spring breeze.

Under the gaze of the man in green, the blood in Xiao Ming's veins seemed to flow faster. It was a familiar feeling of blood bonding. He also lifted his head and the two pairs of pitch-black eyes met...

The gaze lingered for a moment. Then a smile appeared on the face of the man in green. It wasn't a deep smile, but it gave Xiao Ming a sense of familiarity.This chapter was first shared on the Ñøv€lß1n platform.

"Someone from the Xiao Clan has finally come. My years of waiting have not been in vain. Besides..." Xiao Xuan paused, his gaze as deep and vast as the night sky, sweeping over Xiao Ming. Then he nodded slightly, "You are outstanding beyond my expectations..."

If Xiao Chen were here, he would have greatly agreed with Xiao Xuan's comment. Never before in the history of the Xiao Clan had anyone received such praise from Xiao Xuan. Xiao Ming had clearly surpassed those predecessors.

"Ancestor flatters me."

Xiao Ming replied modestly, gazing at Xiao Xuan. Although Xiao Xuan's figure wasn't physically imposing, his presence felt like it could defy the world. Yet, Xiao Ming knew that he was only seeing a projection.

"Let's go into the tomb first. Due to the influence of the Heavenly Tomb, I cannot leave the tomb. I believe you've noticed that what you see now is just a projection of me..."

Xiao Xuan slowly walked towards the stone tablet with his hands behind his back. When he touched it, his figure faded and disappeared.

Xiao Ming followed suit, quickly disappearing from this vast world.

...

Thinking about this, he immediately informed Xiao Ming about the need for Origin Qi to break through. He wanted to prevent Xiao Ming from repeating his mistakes. However, he was astounded to find that Xiao Ming was not surprised at all.

"I have known about this matter for a long time, and I already have the Origin Qi."

This was the first time Xiao Ming mentioned this matter.

"What!"

This time, Xiao Xuan was truly shocked. He had traveled through most of the regions of the Dou Qi Continent, but he still hadn't sensed the existence of this Origin Qi. Now, Xiao Ming was actually telling him that he had it?

Xiao Ming didn't say much. He directly took out the Origin Qi he had obtained earlier.

Inside the transparent jade bottle, a colored thread emitted strange fluctuations.

"This is indeed Origin Qi! It seems that what I failed to accomplish back then will be completed in your hands. The Xiao Clan will truly return to its peak. Haha!"

Xiao Xuan stared at the energy thread in a daze, then suddenly burst into a hearty laugh. Although he had never seen Origin Qi, based on his perception and previous attempts to break through to the Dou God realm, he could confidently say that this was the Origin Qi he required at that time.

After Xiao Ming had put the Origin Qi away, Xiao Xuan finally regained his composure. He smiled and said to the former.

"You didn't come today just to tell me this good news, did you?"

Xiao Ming nodded slightly, organized his words, and began to calmly explain the current situation of the alliance between the Heavenly Court, the Gu Clan, the Lei Clan, and the Yan Clan, including the imminent attack on the Gu Clan and his plans.

The situation of the Xiao Clan had only been briefly mentioned by Xiao Ming earlier. Now, the vast amount of information he revealed caused Xiao Xuan to frown.

"I knew that the Hun Clan secretly coveted the pieces of the Tou She Ancient God's Jade. But I didn't expect them to have such a scheme. Of the Eight Ancient Clans, including our Xiao Clan, four clans have fallen at their hands."

"Besides, for Hun Tiandi to have reached this point, he is not easy to deal with. Old fellow Gu Yuan is just as formidable. Even if you've broken through to the nine-star Dou Saint now, it won't be as easy as you think to sit back and reap the benefits. This plan is too risky."
