Chapter 226 Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade
The cracks in the sky had healed for a long time, and Xiao Yun had already sat down and started chatting with Xiao Zhan and people in the Holy City of Gama realized what was happening and cried out in surprise, looking in the direction of the Xiao family in disbelief.
Although they did not see the person clearly, a name emerged in their minds.
Tearing apart space was almost a miracle in their eyes, and everyone could only think of Xiao Yun, a rare monster in the Gama Empire that was rare in a thousand years.
The news that Xiao Yun had returned to the Holy City of Gama spread throughout the imperial capital in an instant.
All the families were ready to go, but none of them went to visit immediately. Instead, they plunged into the family treasury, searching for the most rare medicinal treasures in the family, trying to use them to please Xiao Yun.
……
The next day, in front of the Xiao family mansion, the gate was more crowded than yesterday. Long queues formed in a line, and there were more than a dozen guards at the gate to maintain order.
Anyone who can confidently come to visit the Xiao family at this time is undoubtedly a prominent figure, and a stomp of his feet can cause an earthquake in the capital of Jiama.
However, at this moment they did not dare to act rashly. Although the door of the Xiao family had been opened, no one dared to enter directly before a member of the Xiao family showed up. They could only wait silently outside the door.
A moment later, a simple carriage drove over, but everyone hurriedly dodged and did not dare to stand in front of it.
Just because the one driving the horse in the carriage was Mitel Fujiyama, the current family of Mitel, who was one of the ten most powerful people in the Gama Empire! There was no need to guess who was in the carriage.
As the crowd avoided them, the Xiao family guards were also very considerate and did not stop the carriage, allowing it to arrive smoothly in front of the Xiao family mansion.
"Tsk tsk, the Mittel family is really lucky. They made friends with the Xiao family when they were weak..."
Under the gaze of a group of important figures, an old man with slightly gray hair walked down from the carriage with steady steps, staring at the gate of the Xiao family with sharp eyes.
As the old man appeared, the already quiet atmosphere became even quieter, as if even the air was frozen.
"Hahaha! Mr. Hai, you're really early!"
The next moment, a hearty voice came from the gate, and the burly Xiao Zhan, surrounded by a group of Xiao family members, walked out of the mansion with the gait of a dragon and a tiger.
"Haha, Chief Xiao, I'm sorry to come here uninvited and talk nonsense."
Hai Bodong, who was at the peak of Dou Huang, bowed slightly when facing Xiao Zhan, who only had a Dou Ling, and actually chose to take the initiative to salute.
However, this behavior did not cause an uproar. Instead, others felt that it was very reasonable. The reason was that if you had a nephew who was at least at the Dou Zun level, you would naturally be treated with such courtesy.
"We are one family, so we should not talk behind each other's backs. Mr. Hai is a guest elder of our Xiao family, so there is no need to be like this."
Xiao Zhan hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, then took Hai Bodong's hand. The latter did not resist, and they walked into the Xiao family mansion together, with Mitel Tengshan following closely behind.
After the three of them entered the house, carriages started driving on both sides of the street again, but these were much more luxurious than the previous ones.
"Oh my god, the Miter family is really going to rise! Even the royal family and the Yunlan Sect can only rank behind them..."
Everyone looked at the two old men who got off the carriage, not daring to breathe. In their minds, there was an even more horrifying thought, but they dared not say it out loud.
The Xiao family has truly risen. Even the two Dou Zong masters were only greeted by the elders.
However, Yunshan and Jia Xingtian, the parties involved, had no dissatisfaction with this. Strictly speaking, the Xiao family, which had a powerful Dou Zun, was already showing respect by being willing to meet them.
After all the important guests had entered, a middle-aged man dressed in Xiao family clothing stepped forward slowly and said loudly: "Line up one by one and report your origins..."
……
In the living room of the Xiao family, important figures gathered together, and accompanied by some members of the Xiao family, they toasted each other and chatted.
As the protagonist of today, Xiao Yun did not put on any airs as a Dou Zun strongman. He sat with Hai Bodong and others and chatted about some interesting things...
The banquet lasted from day to night. These big shots left reluctantly, but they had exhausted the people in the Xiao family's kitchen.
During the banquet, something happened that made Xiao Yun laugh and cry.
That is, as the guardian of the Gama royal family, Jia Xingtian actually led the Gama royal family to abdicate and beg the Xiao family to become the new royal family of the Gama Empire and Xiao Zhan to become the new emperor.
Hearing this, some members of the Xiao family were so moved that their agreement was almost written on their faces.
However, this request was rejected by Xiao Yun. After all, the times are different now. If he was still in the Douhuang period, he might agree to it and use the power of the entire Jia Ma Empire to collect resources for his own cultivation.
But now he is already a Dou Zun level warrior, and his combat power has even reached that of a semi-saint!
It's just a little bit of money that slips through the gaps between fingers. Even if you sell the entire Gama Empire and the Gama royal family, you still can't afford it. Naturally, no one would be interested in these little things.
...Late at night, after returning from the banquet, Xiao Yun grabbed Xiao Zhan and a few others who had drunk a lot of wine, and in a flash, they came to the Xiao family's study.
"Huh? Xiaoyun, where is this? How did we get here?" After experiencing a short-distance teleportation, Xiao Zhan and the three elders, whose originally drunken brains, became much more sober at this moment, and asked.
"Uncle, this is the study. I have something to tell you." Xiao Yun smiled, answered Xiao Zhan's question softly, and then sat directly on the chair in the study.
"Things?" Hearing this, Xiao Zhan shook his head and said vaguely, "Isn't it another technique? Xiao Yun, you gave us enough before, there's no need to give us more."
"It's not a technique."
Xiao Yun shook his head. Although he had collected a lot of martial arts and fighting skills, he was not stupid.
The several local-level skills previously given to the Xiao family did not need to be replaced until they had cultivated to the Dou Zong level.
Giving too many skills would not only make it impossible for the Xiao family to use them, but would also cause some unnecessary trouble.
"What is that..." asked the Great Elder curiously.
"It's a pill. Your cultivation, including that of the Xiao family, is really too low." Xiao Yun shook his head, then took out a storage ring from his arms and placed it on the table.
“Here are some low-level pills that assist in cultivation, and they come with recipes. They are much better than what I gave you before.
Uncle, you will keep this ring from now on. You can sell some pill recipes to the Alchemist Guild and ask them to help refine them. I believe they will not want to take over the recipes."
Fama of the Alchemist Guild is the only one in the Gama Empire who knows that he is an eighth-grade alchemy master, so he is naturally very relieved.
"Ah?" Although Xiao Yun said it lightly, when Xiao Zhan and the others heard it, they were so shocked that they even sobered up!
The effects of the pills that Xiao Yun had given before were extremely impressive, and they had already crushed the Alchemist Guild's cultivation pills.
But now, the former actually disliked the previous pills and replaced them with new ones!
"Xiao Yun, as the clan leader, I want to thank you for everything you have done for the Xiao family!" Xiao Zhan suddenly straightened up and saluted solemnly to Xiao Yun.
"Uncle, as a member of the Xiao family, this is what you should do!" Xiao Yun waved his hand, helped him up with his fighting spirit, and said something nice.
The things he gave to the Xiao family were treasures in the eyes of others, but in fact, they were just "garbage" that Xiao Yun himself could not use.
"No! Xiaoyun, you should be the clan leader! I want to step down and let someone more capable take over!"
After helping Xiao Zhan up, the latter, perhaps under the influence of alcohol, or perhaps inspired by what Xing Tian did at the banquet, actually wanted to directly pass the position of the head of the Xiao family to Xiao Yun.
"Ahem, uncle, this is not necessary..."
Xiao Yun was speechless. Given the current state of the Xiao family, the position of patriarch was not a good position, and he did not need to sign up for the Soul Palace Douhuang crash course.
"But, I really need one thing!"
"You say!" Xiao Zhan waved his hand, and the carefree look spread from top to bottom, stopping abruptly at his inadvertently exposed belly.
"Uncle, does our Xiao family have an ancient jade that has been passed down from generation to generation? I need it."
Hearing this, Xiao Zhan was slightly stunned, but the next moment, he very directly took out an ancient box from his arms.
After opening it, a piece of emerald green jade appeared in Xiao Yun's sight.
At this moment, there was a spot of light on the jade piece, moving slowly, as if it had a spirit.
"Xiao Yun, this should be the jade piece you want!" Xiao Zhan carefully picked up the jade piece and placed it flat on the palm of his hand.
“Our ancestors didn’t pass down any information about this jade piece, so I don’t know where it came from.
The only thing I know is that every clan leader has to input a little soul power into it. You see, it’s that light spot. If I die, the light spot will naturally dissipate.”
Although the current patriarch of the Xiao family is Xiao Zhan, in the hearts of the Xiao family, including Xiao Zhan himself, they have long regarded Xiao Yun as the patriarch.
Therefore, he did not hesitate at all to give the jade piece that symbolized the status of the clan leader. Instead, he felt relieved and relaxed.
"Thank you, uncle, this is exactly what I wanted!"
After taking the jade piece from Xiao Zhan, even though Xiao Yun was calm, he couldn't help but feel a little excited at this moment.
"Tuoshe Gudiyu, I'll find a chance to sell you out!"
I stayed up all night and had insomnia recently.
