They could never place their safety in the hands of external forces. Only when they were strong enough, could they deter the wolves, insects, tigers, and leopards that coveted them. Just think about it, if the Heavenly Chen Continent had over ten Saints, then even if the Blood Demon Continent knew that the Heavenly Chen Continent had Source Energy, they would not dare to provoke them.
Why? Because the Heavenly Chen Continent was stronger than the Blood Demon Continent. Even if the Heavenly Chen Continent had treasures that the Blood Demon Continent coveted, the Saints of the Blood Demon Continent would not dare to have any evil thoughts.
It was a pity that the Heavenly Chen Continent did not have any Saints. Therefore, without enough strength, they had treasures that everyone coveted. It was easy to imagine how they ended up like this.
"To forge iron, one has to be strong. What happened to the Heavenly Chen Continent this time is because we are too weak. If you want to protect the Heavenly Chen Continent, you have to rely on your own strength. Other than that, everything else is meaningless." Xiao Sheng said flatly as he looked at the Sovereigns.
This time, the Heavenly Chen Continent was protected by the Heavenly Chen Continent for a hundred years to give everyone time to grow. This time, Xiao Sheng was prepared to send a large number of people out of the Heavenly Chen Continent. There were tens of thousands of people. It could be said that as long as they were talented, Xiao Sheng planned to send them out and let them grow. As for whether they could protect the Heavenly Chen Continent in the end, it would depend on their own abilities.
Hearing Xiao Sheng's words, the Rulers fell silent. In the end, Xiao Sheng only left a sentence before disappearing into the Shrines.
"There are a total of fifty thousand people. As for who you choose, it is up to you. They are the hope of the Heavenly Chen Continent. You can decide for yourselves. I don't have much time. There must be a result within three days. When the time comes, bring them all to the Heavenly Chen Mountain."
Xiao Sheng could only send out fifty thousand people at most. Although these people left the Heavenly Chen Continent, they were the hope of the Heavenly Chen Continent. They grew up in a foreign land to protect the Heavenly Chen Continent. If these people failed, the Heavenly Chen Continent would have no future to speak of.
With that, Xiao Sheng disappeared into the Shrines. Then, the Rulers looked at each other and nodded heavily. Xiao Sheng was right. He had done his best to give the Heavenly Chen Continent a chance of survival. As for whether they could seize this chance, it was up to them.
Time was of the essence............
Just as the Sovereigns were about to take action, Xiao Sheng arrived at Western Pass City alone. There was someone he wanted to meet here.
Strolling through the streets of Western Pass City, Xiao Chen and the others already knew that the Blood Demon Continent still had eight Demon Saints. Everyone was in low spirits. At this moment, Xiao Sheng's figure appeared in front of Xiao Chen and the others without any warning.
Facing Xiao Sheng, everyone recognized him at a glance. They all bowed and said, "Greetings, Saint."
Xiao Sheng's expression didn't change much in the face of everyone's greetings. His gaze was fixed on Xiao Chen from the beginning to the end.
As they were of the same bloodline, Xiao Sheng had already felt the power of Xiao Chen's bloodline. It was so familiar.
Looking at Xiao Chen, Xiao Sheng's eyes revealed a touch of gentleness. This was a descendant of the Xiao Family. It could be said that he was Xiao Sheng's descendant. Smiling at Xiao Chen, Xiao Sheng spoke.
"Little fellow, what's your name?"
"Reporting to Saint, junior's name is Xiao Chen." In response to Xiao Sheng's question, Xiao Chen replied in a neither servile nor overbearing manner.
"Xiao Chen, Xiao Chen. Not bad, not bad. Follow me." Hearing Xiao Chen's reply, Xiao Sheng softly muttered to himself. Then, with a wave of his hand, he disappeared with Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen didn't allow him to refuse. Of course, facing Xiao Sheng, Xiao Chen didn't want to refuse. Perhaps it was because they were of the same bloodline, but when facing Xiao Sheng, Xiao Chen instinctively felt a sense of closeness.
He didn't bring Xiao Chen to any other place. Instead, he brought Xiao Chen directly to the Xiao Family in Lingshan Province. Standing proudly in the clouds, Xiao Sheng looked down at the Xiao Family with a complicated gaze.
"Do you know who I am?"
Hearing Xiao Sheng's words, Xiao Chen shook his head. Although he felt a sense of closeness to Xiao Sheng, he didn't know Xiao Sheng's identity.
Seeing Xiao Chen shake his head, Xiao Sheng said indifferently, "You should know me because you've been to the Ancestral Land. My name is Xiao Sheng."
Hearing the two words Xiao Sheng, Xiao Chen was stunned. Xiao Sheng was the ancestor of the Xiao Family, and also his ancestor. He stared blankly at Xiao Sheng. Xiao Chen didn't know what to say, but his heart was filled with questions.
Xiao Sheng smiled faintly. His smile was filled with reminiscence. As if he could see the doubts in Xiao Chen's heart, Xiao Sheng slowly spoke.
"This is the Ancestral Land of the Xiao Family. Three thousand years ago, this place was known as the Holy City. The Xiao Family prospered here and once ruled the entire Heavenly Chen Continent. Every year, various forces would come here to worship."
"Thinking back, this place was so glorious. Every member of the Xiao Family could be said to be a dragon among men. However, the Xiao Family couldn't escape the law of decline after reaching the pinnacle of prosperity. Time erased the glory of the Xiao Family and buried the glorious history of the Xiao Family. The Holy City became an ordinary city in the Heavenly Chen Continent …"
Xiao Sheng seemed to be talking to himself, but Xiao Chen could hear a strong sense of reminiscence from his words.
He didn't expect the Xiao Family to have such a glorious past. Just thinking about it made Xiao Chen feel as if he saw a huge family entrenched in the Holy City.
There were many experts in the Xiao Family, and the younger generations were all extraordinary. Every member of the Xiao Family was dignified and respected by thousands.
Xiao Sheng used his words to show Xiao Chen the scene of the Xiao Family's glory three thousand years ago.
Imitating Xiao Sheng, Xiao Chen sized up the Lingshan County City and the Xiao Family from the sky. If it weren't for Xiao Sheng's words, Xiao Chen would have a hard time connecting the Holy City three thousand years ago with the current Lingshan County City. The two shouldn't have the slightest connection at all.
Xiao Chen was in a daze. At this moment, Xiao Sheng continued.
"In the battle three thousand years ago, following my death and the fall of many experts in the Xiao Family, the Xiao Family's decline was a foregone conclusion. But now, I see hope again."
Xiao Sheng shifted his gaze to Xiao Chen. His eyes were filled with gratification as he said, "You are a descendant of the Xiao Family. You are my descendant, Xiao Sheng's descendant. Looking at you, I see hope for the Xiao Family to regain its glory."
The decline of the Xiao Clan filled Xiao Sheng's heart with a myriad of emotions. However, after seeing Xiao Chen, the fire of hope reignited in Xiao Sheng's heart. Although Xiao Sheng would not be able to exist for much longer, he believed that as long as Xiao Chen was around, the Xiao Clan would definitely be able to return to its peak, or even be more glorious than it was at its peak.
