The previous patriarch of the Xuanyuan Clan? Chen Ling and Xuanyuan Wudi's uncle? Xiao Chen was slightly stunned when he heard this. Chen Ling smiled bitterly, "I never thought that I would be able to see my uncle again in this lifetime."
Chen Ling was touched, but Xiao Chen didn't know what to say. However, Chen Ling took the initiative to tell Xiao Chen about Xuanyuan Songtao, including how Xuanyuan Songtao became like this.
Xiao Chen's eyes flashed with surprise when he heard Chen Ling's words. "Then why did you let Xuanyuan Wudi go?"
He never thought that Xuanyuan Songtao was harmed by Xuanyuan Wudi. As such, Xiao Chen didn't think too much about it and immediately replied.
With the relationship between Xiao Chen and Chen Ling, they naturally didn't need to think too much when they spoke. Moreover, Xiao Chen couldn't understand why Chen Ling didn't say a word when Chen Ling had a way to ruin Xuanyuan Wudi's reputation. He even covered the ice coffin with a black cloth.
Now, Chen Ling only needed to announce Xuanyuan Songtao's matter and Xuanyuan Wudi would be finished. So what if he was The Great Sage? There would definitely be countless people in the Xuanyuan Clan who wouldn't accept him. At that time, Xuanyuan Wudi would be alone.
Xiao Chen's words carried a hint of blame. Chen Ling smiled and said, "He's my younger brother after all, just like you."
"Younger brother? Big brother, he's the one who wants to kill you. "Xiao Chen retorted mercilessly.
Xuanyuan Wudi had indeed wanted to kill Chen Ling. If Xiao Chen and Xing Zhantian hadn't arrived in time, the two of them would have perished together.
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Chen Ling smiled bitterly and helplessly, "Third Brother, I know and understand what you mean. However, there are some things that are completely different from what you imagine when you really have to do it yourself. I once thought of killing Xuanyuan Wudi personally for revenge, but when it came to meeting him, I couldn't do it no matter what."
"It's like if I wanted to kill you, third brother, would you be able to kill me?"
If one day Chen Ling and Xiao Chen had a falling out, and Chen Ling wanted to kill Xiao Chen, what would Xiao Chen do at that time?
Should he kill Chen Ling mercilessly, or should he be like Chen Ling, soft-hearted and unable to kill him?
Xiao Chen did not know how to answer Chen Ling's question because he had never thought that there would be a day when he and Chen Ling would become enemies.
Seeing Xiao Chen's silence, Chen Ling smiled helplessly. "Some things are easier said than done, especially between brothers. How can it be broken so easily?"
Chen Ling couldn't bear to kill Xuanyuan Wudi. Even though he had a way to destroy Xuanyuan Wudi's reputation, Chen Ling couldn't bring himself to do it.
Hearing Chen Ling's words, Xiao Chen was silent for a while. Finally, he sighed and said, "Big brother, do you think there will be a day when we become enemies?"
Because of Chen Ling's question, Xiao Chen tried to think about it. If there was a day when he and Chen Ling became enemies because of some things, what would happen then? He didn't dare to imagine. Or rather, Xiao Chen himself didn't have an answer.
Hearing Xiao Chen's question, Chen Ling smiled and said, "No, you're different from Wudi."
As he spoke, Chen Ling slowly walked to the window. At this time, the sun was slowly rising. Looking at the rising sun, Chen Ling seemed to be answering Xiao Chen's question, but also seemed to be talking to himself.
"Wudi has been chasing after me since he was young. I knew this from the beginning. Originally, I thought this was good, at least it gave Wudi a goal. After all, at that time, he and I had just lost our father."
"But who would have thought that in the end, this chasing gradually turned into jealousy and hatred. Wudi hated me. He hated me for taking away everything that should have belonged to him."
"But he didn't know that this wasn't my intention. If he wanted it, I would have given it all to him without hesitation. Status, fame, power, I could have given it all to him."
"Unfortunately, it was too late. Wudi was like a child. He wanted to be strong, but he was also very childish. He was very naive, but he was also very jealous. He was very emotional, but he was also very impulsive. All this time, Wudi was like a follower behind me."
"But third brother, you're different. You're not the same as Wudi. Your talent is outstanding, even above mine. You and I have gone through many twists and turns. Along the way, there's nothing that we can't share. So, you'll never become Wudi."
Chen Ling and Xiao Chen would never become like Xuanyuan Ling and Xuanyuan Wudi. Hearing this, Xiao Chen smiled and said, "Alright, anyway, I can't win against big brother. Who asked you to live two lives? In short, no matter what decision you make, I'll support you. However, if Xuanyuan Wudi still wants to kill you, next time, even if big brother doesn't do it, I won't let him off easily."
As brothers, how could they reason clearly? Perhaps if this matter happened to Xiao Chen, Xiao Chen would definitely kill Xuanyuan Wudi without hesitation. However, Chen Ling's heart softened. Thus, Xiao Chen could only choose to support him.
Just like Xiao Chen said, no matter what decision Chen Ling made, Xiao Chen would support him.
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Chen Ling smiled and then shifted his gaze to the ice coffin. Seeing this, Xiao Chen also came to Chen Ling's side and looked at Xuanyuan Songtao, who was lying quietly in the ice coffin.
"Is he still alive?"
"Perhaps, he used a secret technique to seal his consciousness and entered a state of suspended animation." Hearing this, Chen Ling replied indifferently.
In fact, all these years, Xuanyuan Songtao had been sleeping in the ice coffin. It wasn't completely without benefits because he had been in such a state. In fact, after so many years, Xuanyuan Songtao's life force had been very little. This was actually the biggest benefit.
It wasn't difficult to wake Xuanyuan Songtao up. He only needed to open the ice coffin and then use his own spiritual energy to undo the seal on Xuanyuan Songtao's consciousness. At that time, Xuanyuan Songtao would be able to wake up.
The storage ring in his hand flashed, and then, a round jade tablet appeared in Chen Ling's hand. This jade tablet was like a piece of ice, transparent and pure. This was the key to this hotel, and it was also the thing that Xuanyuan Wudi had been painstakingly looking for.
In Clear Sky City, Chen Ling was temporarily safe, so at this time, he let down his guard. Looking at Xuanyuan Songtao in the ice coffin, Chen Ling slowly said, "Uncle, I came late and caused you to suffer. I am unfilial."
As he spoke, Chen Ling directly pressed the jade tablet on the surface of the ice coffin. As the jade tablet and the ice coffin came into contact, suddenly, a light blue light slowly lit up from the jade tablet.
