"Disciple greets Grand Elder." Seeing this, Xing Jue hurriedly bowed and said respectfully. The Supreme Elder was not only Li Xiaohan's grandfather, but he was also the boss of Yufeng Pavilion. Therefore, Xing Jue did not dare to slight the Supreme Elder.
"Haha, I say, brat, isn't it a little wrong to call him Supreme Elder?" After hearing Xing Jue's words, the Supreme Elder laughed out loud.
"Eh …" However, after hearing the Grand Elder's words, Xing Jue was a little confused. He thought to himself, "Did I address you wrongly?"
"You should call me Grandpa, right?" Seeing Xing Jue's confused expression, the Supreme Elder smiled and said. His originally sharp eyes were filled with gentleness at this moment.
"Xing Jue, greetings, Grandpa." After hearing the Supreme Elder's words, Xing Jue's confused face was instantly overjoyed. He quickly bowed and said respectfully.
Because this meant that the Supreme Elder already knew and recognized the relationship between Xing Jue and Li Xiaohan. How could Xing Jue not be happy about this?
"Hahaha …"
"Alright, get up."
And this action of Xing Jue also won the favor of the Supreme Elder. Immediately, he hurriedly helped Xing Jue up with a smile.
"Xing Jue, come with me, I have something to tell you."
After helping Xing Jue up, the Supreme Elder's expression suddenly changed. He said to Xing Jue with a solemn expression, then walked straight into the hall.
After seeing the change in the Supreme Elder, Xing Jue slightly frowned, but after a moment of silence, he still hurriedly followed.
After entering the hall, the Supreme Elder gestured for Xing Jue to sit beside him. At this moment, the Supreme Elder's expression was a little solemn.
"Xing Jue, what Xiao Han told you before is actually not the truth." After a moment of silence, the Great Elder slowly said to Xing Jue.
After hearing what the Great Elder said, Xing Jue was shocked. It turned out that the Great Elder had heard everything that Li Xiaohan had said to him. However, what surprised him the most was that there seemed to be another reason for Li Xiaohan's parents. Immediately, he listened to the Grand Elder's narration more attentively.
"Back then, an ancient relic was discovered in the Boundless Sea Region. The age of that ancient relic was indeed quite ancient. People guessed that it might be from the Ancient Era. Because of this, it attracted the attention of countless experts in the Boundless Sea Region and the Eastern Continent. "
"Regarding that ancient relic, all the major forces wanted to gain some benefits from it. Xiao Han's parents were the strongest people in Yufeng Pavilion at that time, so they represented Yufeng Pavilion to open the relic. "The Great Elder slowly said.
"The strongest people in Yufeng Pavilion?"
Hearing this, Xing Jue's expression changed even more. Does that mean that Li Xiaohan's parents' strength had already surpassed this Great Elder? At the very least, he would be a high-level Combat King.
"Later on, in the ancient relic, there was indeed a rich treasure. In order to fight for those treasures, experts from all sides had a great battle. That battle could be said to be extremely intense, and many experts fell in that battle. "
"It was also during that battle that Xiao Han's parents injured the Great Elder of the Nangong Nobles. Later on, the Nangong Nobles did come to suppress Yufeng Pavilion because of that. However, at that time, the Nangong Nobles were actually not a match for Yufeng Pavilion. "
"And the death of Xiao Han's parents had nothing to do with the Nangong Nobles. It was all because of the treasure they found in the relic. It was a soul." Saying this, the Great Elder couldn't help but look at Xing Jue with a strange gaze.
"Soul?" After hearing this term, Xing Jue was also shocked. Soul was a rare thing in the world.
Back then, the Soul-Eater Clan was so powerful, but they only managed to collect a few souls. He didn't expect Xiao Han's parents to find one in the relic.
"Originally, it was impossible to refine a soul. However, in the relic, they found a strange secret manual."
"Not only did the secret manual record the method to refine a soul, it also recorded the cultivation method of the soul." The Great Elder explained again.
"The method to refine a soul? The cultivation method of the soul? "If Xing Jue was surprised before, he was completely shocked after hearing this.
Refining a soul and the cultivation method of the soul. Wasn't this something only the Soul-Eater Clan could do? Why was there such a cultivation method in this world? Could it be that the owner of the relic was an ancestor of the Soul-Eater Clan?
At that moment, Xing Jue was completely blind. If he wanted to know the answer, he could only continue listening to the Great Elder.
"After that, in order to obtain the power of the soul, Xiao Han's parents started to refine the soul according to the manual."
"However, the power of the soul was too strong. In the end, Xiao Han's father couldn't withstand the powerful backlash and died."
"However, it is precisely because of this that the Soul Essence has been refined."
"After that, Xiao Han's mother used all her strength to transfer the power of the soul from Xiao Han's father's body into Xiao Han's body."
"That's why Xiao Han's soul power is so special."
"Right after the two of them died, the Nangong Nobles came to suppress us. Therefore, I used the excuse that the two of them had committed suicide to get them to leave."
"After that, not only did the Nangong Nobles believe it was true, even the people in the Yufeng Pavilion treated it as the truth."
"Other than me and Xiao Han's grandmother, you are the only one who knows about this." The Great Elder looked at Xing Jue meaningfully.
"Grandfather, is there anything you need me to do?" Hearing this, Xing Jue understood the Great Elder's intention. He didn't play dumb and took the initiative to ask.
"Now that Xiao Han has grown up, it's time for her to know the truth."
"However, I haven't seen Xiao Han for many years. It's not good to tell her this personally. Therefore, I want to borrow your mouth to pass on the message." Seeing Xing Jue's reaction, the Great Elder nodded his head in satisfaction.
"Don't worry, leave this matter to me." After hearing the Great Elder's words, Xing Jue patted his chest and vowed.
"Mmm, you're very smart. I'll leave this matter to you."
"There's no time to lose. Tomorrow, go and tell Xiao Han about this. Then, bring her to the Tong Tian Peak. I have other things to tell you." After saying that, the supreme elder's figure flashed and merged into the space, leaving behind Xing Jue, who had yet to recover from his shock.
On the morning of the next day, Xing Jue followed Elder Tian's instructions and ran to Li Xiaohan's palace. He recounted everything that had happened in full detail.
After hearing the truth, Li Xiao Han's expression became much more relaxed. It was obvious that the knot in her heart had been undone.
Seeing that Li Xiaohan was fine, Xing Jue brought her to the Sky Piercing Peak where he had agreed to meet the Supreme Elder.
At the bottom of the Tong Tian Peak, the Great Elder stood with his hands behind his back. He seemed to be thinking about something as he gazed into the distance. On his old face, there were traces of nervousness.
"Grandfather."
At this moment, a sweet voice suddenly rang out behind the Great Elder. This voice was a little timid and a little shaky. But even so, after hearing this voice, the Great Elder's originally nervous face was filled with joy. Moreover, his smile was extremely brilliant.
Afterwards, with Xing Jue's help, the grandfather and grandson started to chat. Later on, their relationship turned from estrangement to closeness. After all, blood was thicker than water. Even though it was the first time they met, the feelings that came from the same bloodline could not be blocked.
"Grandfather, where's my grandmother?" After chatting for a while, Li Xiao Han suddenly thought of her grandmother. Immediately, she asked the Great Elder with a face full of expectation.
"Haha, when your parents were refining the spirit, your grandmother strongly opposed it. I, on the other hand, maintained my silence."
"So, after something happened to your parents, your grandmother got angry at me and left the Yufeng Pavilion."
"All these years, I've been traveling outside to find the whereabouts of your grandmother. Some time ago, I finally found out that your grandmother is living in seclusion on the inner island of the Endless Sea Region."
"And today, I've asked the two of you to come here because of your grandmother."
"When your parents died, your grandmother insisted that there was something wrong with the secret manual. So, before she left, she took the secret manual with her."
"However, the spiritual training method recorded in that secret manual is indeed very powerful. If you successfully master it, it will allow the two of you to greatly improve your strength." When he spoke to this point, the Great Elder could not help but cast his sharp gaze towards Xing Jue.
"Err …" Xing Jue was a little embarrassed. It turned out that the Great Elder had already seen through the uniqueness of his soul. It must have been discovered when he was in the Netherworld Empire.
"And this time, I want the two of you to go find your grandmother and beg her to teach you that cultivation technique," the Great Elder continued to speak. "That's right, I want the two of you to go find your grandmother.
As he spoke, the Great Elder took out a piece of paper and handed it to Li Xiao Han. It was the address of Li Xiao Han's grandmother in the inner island.
After receiving the paper, Li Xiao Han asked in surprise, "Grandfather, aren't you coming with us?"
"I won't be going. I don't think your grandmother wants to see me."
"Moreover, the NanGong family has suffered a great loss this time. I don't think they will let this matter rest."
"So, I need to guard the Yufeng Pavilion for a while." The Great Elder said with a smile.
"Grandfather, wasn't the strongest Great Elder of the NanGong family killed by Xiao Han's parents?"
"Could it be that there is still someone who can threaten my Imperial Wind Pavilion?" Seeing this, Xing Jue asked in confusion.
"Actually, the strongest person in the NanGong family is not the Great Elder nor the current Palace Master."
"It's Nangong Shuiyue." Hearing Xing Jue's question, the Great Elder said word by word.
"Nangong Shuiyue? Could it be the genius of the NanGong family? "
Xing Jue was unfamiliar with this term, but he could tell that it was a female's name. Therefore, he quickly thought of the genius disciple that everyone feared.
