Xiao Ling`er's words did not arouse the Third Elder's suspicion.
In his opinion, this was a reasonable thing.
He nodded slightly and said with a smile, "With your strength, it is indeed impossible to kill the Cloud-Spot Beast and obtain the refining materials.
Sigh, you two are too sensible. You are not like the little fellows in the other branches, who are begging their elders to help them gather materials.
Unfortunately, without the corresponding materials, I cannot refine treasures for you.
The two of you will have to be extra careful during the Holy Fire Festival … "
Xiao Chen was startled and could not help but reveal the truth.
However, Xiao Ling`er glared at him again and quickly changed the topic. She asked the Third Elder, "Third Grandpa, Ling`er came to visit you today to ask about something.
When we came back earlier, we saw two unfamiliar men, one old and one young, enter our Xiao Clan.
The middle-aged man was wearing a purple robe and the young man was wearing a white robe. They were very handsome …
Third Grandpa, who are they? Why have Ling`er never seen them before? "
The Third Elder's old face immediately revealed a gratified and proud expression. He nodded and said, "The two people you are talking about, I just met them. They are now living in Tingfeng Garden.
The man in the purple robe is your uncle, your father's cousin!
You should have heard of his name. He is Xiao Han, the pride of our Third Branch and the entire Xiao Clan! "
"Xiao Han?" Xiao Chen's eyes widened, revealing a gaze full of worship and excitement. He said with a trembling voice, "The Divine General of the Eastern Forest, Uncle Xiao Han, who guards the eastern sea border? He actually came back?
That's great! I have heard of his legends since I was young and have always admired him. I hope that when I grow up, I can bring glory to my ancestors and guard the continent … "
Xiao Ling`er was also very excited and pleasantly surprised. She could not help but ask, "Oh my god! He is actually Uncle Xiao Han. I did not expect to see the Divine General of the Eastern Forest!
That's right, Third Grandpa, where is the young man beside Uncle Xiao Han? Who is he? "
The Third Elder smiled and nodded, "That is Xiao Han's nephew, Tianxing. He is a genius ten times more outstanding than Xiao Han!"
"It's really him!" Xiao Ling`er was so excited that her eyes sparkled.
She couldn't help but clench her little fists and think to herself with joy, "That's great! He's in Tingfeng Garden, and I'll be able to see him soon!
Hmph, Xiao Tianxing, I will definitely find you and get to know you again! "
The Third Elder saw their reactions and guessed their thoughts. He reminded them in a serious tone, "Xiao Han is returning to the Xiao Clan this time to bring the top two disciples with him.
The disciples who obtained the top two positions would serve under Xiao Han and receive his promotion and care.
The two of you have to work harder and strive to be in the top two to gain Xiao Han's favor.
However, they had just returned and needed a good rest.
If you want to see him, you'll have to wait until tomorrow. "
Xiao Linger hurriedly nodded. "Yes, Third Grandpa, don't worry. We'll surely not be rash and abrupt!"
Xiao Chen suppressed the excitement in his heart and nodded repeatedly.
After that, the two of them bowed to the Third Elder and left the hall.
After walking out of Tingfeng Garden, the two of them chatted as they walked.
Xiao Chen couldn't help but ask, "Sister Ling`er, why didn't you let me tell the Third Elder the truth just now?"
Xiao Ling`er glared at him and said unhappily, "Are you stupid? Didn't you see that Third Grandpa's injuries have worsened and his complexion is even worse?
Third Grandpa refined the Six Harmonies Magic Treasure for the clan and also refined magic treasures for Xiao Xue and the rest. His vitality has been greatly damaged and his internal injuries have flared up.
How can we cause trouble for Third Grandpa and let him refine magic treasures and worsen his injuries? "
Xiao Chen frowned and said with a heart full of worry, "I also understand this logic. However, Xiao Xue and Xiao Chong both have magic treasures and we don't.
When the time comes, we'll be at a disadvantage in the examination …
If we can't obtain the top two positions, we'll lose the great opportunity to follow Uncle Xiao Han! "
Xiao Ling`er thought for a while and her quick-witted eyes turned. She immediately had an idea.
"Xiao Chen, how about this? Tomorrow, we'll go pay a visit to Uncle Xiao Han and sound him out.
If there's a chance, we'll hint to Uncle Xiao Han and let him set the rules of the examination. We're not allowed to borrow external forces or use magic treasures. "
Xiao Chen's eyes immediately lit up and he nodded repeatedly, "Hey, this idea is not bad. This is very fair to everyone!"
Just as he finished speaking, a disdainful sneer came from the front.
"Hehe … Only the weak have extravagant hopes for fairness!"
Suddenly hearing these words, Xiao Chen and Xiao Ling`er stopped in their tracks and raised their heads to look forward.
They saw that on the bluestone road in front of them, there were three young men and women walking towards them.
The young woman walking in the middle wore a blue dress and held a silver sword in her left hand.
This woman was tall and had a cold temperament. However, her face was slightly ordinary and could only be considered average.
She was the genius of the fifth branch, Xiao Xue.
Following on her left and right were two handsome young men.
The young man on the left wore a snow-white robe. His face was sickly pale and his eyes were gloomy and cold.
He was the genius of the second branch, Xiao Chong. He was also the one who sneered earlier.
The young man on the right wore a fiery-red robe. He was the genius of the fourth branch, Xiao Ke.
He was tall and sturdy with a dignified appearance. His entire body emitted a valiant and wild aura.
These three young men and women, in addition to Xiao Chen and Xiao Ling`er, were the most outstanding geniuses of the Xiao Clan's younger generation.
Unfortunately, these five geniuses were divided into two factions. They were hostile and opposed to each other. They had to compete in everything.
Xiao Chong's words made Xiao Chen and Xiao Ling`er furious. Their eyes turned cold.
Xiao Chen shouted in a deep voice, "Xiao Chong, you dare to be arrogant in front of me with your little strength?"
Xiao Chong leisurely stroked his collar. The corner of his mouth curled into a sinister sneer. He nodded and said, "That's right. I alone am enough to crush you!"
"You're too arrogant! I must teach you a lesson today! "Xiao Chen could not hold back his anger. He clenched his fist in anger and was about to attack.
However, a light flashed in Xiao Chong's palm, and a crescent-shaped silver saber appeared.
As Xiao Chong poured Quintessence into the saber, the saber immediately expanded by a thousand times. It turned into a huge saber that was ten meters long and gave off a dazzling silver light.
A strong wind swept up on the blue stone path. The berserk saber Qi was pointed at Xiao Chen.
"Xiao Chen, you can't even take one saber strike from me. Do you believe me?"
Xiao Chen was immediately driven mad. However, due to the might of the silver saber, he did not dare to attack Xiao Chong.
Xiao Ling`er cursed angrily, "Xiao Chong, you shameless despicable person! Aren't you just relying on the might of your Magic Treasure?
