"Middle era …" Xiao Yan's heart moved slightly, looking at Xiao Zhen 'er.
Xiao Zhen 'er nodded: "According to the time, it should be during the war between the two worlds when Jihuang Shenyuan was killed."
Hearing this, Xiao Yan was silent. Xiao Zhen 'er looked at him strangely, but did not ask more, continuing: "Later, in order to treat me, father used a clone to bring me into the Divine Land to find a solution."
"One day when I passed by Wuzhou City, I suddenly discovered a strange aura circulating in a family in the city. It was so faint that it was almost undetectable, but it had the effect of treating my congenital chronic illness. After father searched everywhere, he found the Xiao family, but he was unable to determine where the strange aura came from."
"That wasn't the aura of magic power, nor was it some trace left behind by some expert. If it wasn't for the strange illness in my body, even father wouldn't have discovered it."
Xiao Zhen 'er recalled and said: "Father originally had the intention of simply bringing your entire family back to the Ancient World of Immortals, but thinking that I couldn't be in the Ancient World of Immortals at the same time as that shattered stone, and that the shattered stone was very strange, it couldn't easily leave the ancient world. In addition, he wanted to give me a normal and relaxed childhood, so he left me in the Xiao family in the end."
"On one hand, I wanted to treat my chronic illness, on the other, I also wanted to investigate the source of that strange aura."
"It's just that even though my illness was cured later on, I still didn't understand the source of that strange aura. Brother Xiao Yan, after you left to learn from Elder Lin, father came to Wuzhou City to find me again, but to no avail. He even took out the Heavenly Disaster Remnant Stone, but to no avail."
"My body was already cured, and I no longer feared the Heavenly Disaster Remnant Stone, so I followed father back to the ancient world and officially started cultivating."
Xiao Yan who was in deep thought came back to his senses: "Heavenly Disaster?"
Xiao Zhen 'er said: "When the Middle era had just changed, that remnant stone once shot out a heart palpitating red light, showing the two words' Heavenly Disaster '."
After a short pause, Xiao Zhen 'er continued, "Then, when I saw Brother Xiao Yan, your Evil Radiant Overlord Sword could break the crack in the Nether Sea, I had a guess."
"The source of that aura back then perhaps didn't originate from the Xiao family but from you, big brother Xiao Yan. So after you left Wuzhou later, even if father brought the Remnant Stone of Heavenly Calamity over, he also couldn't find the slightest trace."
"When this news spread, Father and the others also had the same guess, but they were never able to confirm it."
Xiao Yan said softly, "All these years, your father has been tacitly approving of our affairs. He has become more and more indulgent, almost to the point of letting us do whatever we want. Is it also related to this matter?"
He had never doubted Xiao Zhen 'er's feelings, and there was no need for him to doubt it. However, it was hard to tell what his father-in-law was thinking.
"That's not the case." Xiao Zhen 'er shook her head and looked at Xiao Yan: "Brother Xiao Yan, do you remember that I once mentioned to you that three years ago in the Vast Thousand Worlds, the Great Elder of Taixu Temple, Wu Mengqi, once visited our race's Ancient Longevity World?"
Xiao Yan nodded: "That was the second person of Taixu Temple's Great Elder level to visit your place after Cai Fengzhou visited the Ancient Longevity World after the Exterminating Xuan War."
Xiao Zhen 'er said word by word: "He can cause the Remnant Stone of Heavenly Calamity to resonate. On his body, there is the same fluctuation of the Nether Sea as the one in Wuzhou City."
"He once proposed to study the Remnant Stone of Heavenly Calamity together with our race and share the harvest, but father refused in the end."
Xiao Yan was a bit surprised and looked at Xiao Zhen 'er. A faint blush appeared on Xiao Zhen' er's face, but she did not continue speaking.
She thought of the scene when she asked her father about it. Gu Jun's expression was kind as he smiled: "Silly daughter, that is the dowry I prepared for you. It doesn't seem very expensive now, but I believe it is the most suitable thing."
Xiao Zhen 'er was a bit surprised: "Father, you agree to my marriage with brother Xiao Yan?"
Gu Jun's expression was calm. After a long time, he said softly: "If possible, I sincerely hope that your marriage will not involve other factors, but being born in our race, this is very difficult to avoid."
"In these few years, Xiao Yan that child let me see his sincerity and also saw the bearing of the Xuan Gate's leader. I can see that they also don't wish for other matters to be involved in your marriage. This is very good but there are a lot of things that can't be done with just our wishful thinking."
"Even if both of us want to help you two be together, in the eyes of the outside world, it will still be interpreted differently."
Gu Jun lightly stroked Xiao Zhen 'er's hair: "As a father, I agree to your marriage. Xiao Yan is a partner that can be entrusted, a partner that is worth accompanying for a lifetime. But as the emperor of a dynasty, the leader of a clan, I still need to be cautious."
"One thing I can promise is that I will not choose other people for you to marry. However, you may have to wait."
Xiao Zhen 'er heard this and nodded: "Father, I understand. I will not make things difficult for you, but no matter how long it takes, I will always wait."
Gu Jun faintly smiled: "Silly daughter, the matter might not be as bad as you think. Father will not interfere or obstruct your interaction with Xiao Yan. Even if the two of you dual cultivate, as long as the matter is not spread out, it's nothing. But before everything is settled, father is unable to give you his blessings and is unable to personally send you off."
"Father …" Xiao Zhen 'er blushed at first, but when she heard Gu Jun's words, she also felt sad: "I am sorry, father, I have made things difficult for you."
"It is not difficult, it is not difficult at all. On the contrary, I am very happy." Gu Jun sighed and looked at the void outside the palace: "The life of us cultivators is too long. The reason why we become cultivation partners is to support each other on the path of cultivation. It is a union of sincere love. Perhaps only people like you and Xiao Yan, who have feelings for each other since they were young, can have a chance of success."
Xiao Zhen 'er suddenly smiled: "Just like you and mother."
Gu Jun also smiled. His smile was warm and genial. "You!"
Thinking of the conversation she had with her father back then, Xiao Zhen 'er's heart was both sweet and a bit bitter. She braced herself and looked at Xiao Yan: "Brother Xiao Yan, father might also bring you to come in contact with the Heaven Calamity Remnant Rock this time."
Xiao Yan lowered his head and pondered. After a while, he turned around and looked at Xiao Zhen 'er. In his eyes, there was suddenly a myriad of phenomena and endless disasters.
At this moment, looking into Xiao Yan's eyes, Xiao Zhen 'er felt like she was looking at the Netherworld Ocean.
Xiao Zhen 'er was shocked: "Brother Xiao Yan, your eyes are the same as Elder Wu of Taixu Temple, they can both show the image of the Netherworld Ocean."
"In the Netherworld Ocean, there might be a line that connects me, your family's Heavenly Affliction Rock, the Supreme Elder of Taixu Temple, and the King Of The Underworld." Xiao Yan said calmly. Xiao Zhen 'er's eyes moved, as if she suddenly thought of something. She looked at Xiao Yan in shock: "In the middle era, the person who activated the Netherworld Ocean and killed Jihuang Shenyuan with the Haotian Mirror, was it really Wen Chiyang? He didn't die and lived in the Netherworld Ocean until the middle era? Brother Xiao Yan, you and him … "
Xiao Yan shook his head and said, "There might be a connection, but it shouldn't be a very close connection. I don't know the details, but the connection is real."
"The broken rock that your family got from the King Of The Underworld could very well be the result of the King Of The Underworld's research on the Netherworld Ocean when he was still in power. In the ancient war, Wen Chiyang disappeared from the world, and his body was never found. The King Of The Underworld could very well have found some clues about Wen Chiyang's whereabouts, and these clues point to the Netherworld Ocean."
Xiao Yan twitched his mouth and said, "After all, after the Taixu Taoist and Gautama Buddha went to the Dead Sea and disappeared, Wen Chiyang became the person that the King Of The Underworld feared the most. He was still alive, and even though he was stronger than Xia Huang, he was still as obedient as a sheep. He only dared to show himself when Wen Chiyang was gone."
"How could the King Of The Underworld feel at ease when such a person's life and death became a mystery? But it seems that before his research had much results, he was overthrown and deposed by your family's ancestor and the Taixu Temple, and was beaten to death once. " Xiao Yan said in a low voice, "There is also a possibility that Wen Chiyang was in the Netherworld Sea, and it was only during the war between the two worlds in the Middle Era that he gained control of the Netherworld Sea, and it just so happened that he had a great battle with Jihuang Shenyuan."
"After that, Wen Chiyang was completely destroyed, and he died together with Jihuang Shenyuan. But when the King Of The Underworld was hiding in the dark, waiting for his resurrection, and plotting, his understanding of the Netherworld Sea also deepened. That was why he could break open the crack in the Netherworld Sea and disturb your Ancient Longevity World."
"And the Taixu Temple believed that they also tried to find out the truth behind Wen Chiyang's disappearance in the Ancient Era, or maybe because of Wen Chiyang's legacy, they also had some understanding of the Netherworld Sea."
At this point, Xiao Yan laughed bitterly, "The only problem that I still don't understand is myself."
Xiao Zhen 'er said, "Maybe after coming into contact with the Heaven Disaster Stone, Big Brother Xiao Yan, you might know more."
The group walked and settled down under the guidance of Gu Cheng and the others. Although Gu Jun said that everyone had their own way of doing things in Longevity City, Xuanmen Tianzong and the others naturally would not be so rude. Even if they wanted to go out, they would ask the people of the Ancient Clan to accompany them.
But most people still chose to rest in their rooms, and at most, they would visit each other's houses.
At this moment, Duanmu Hong was in Master Tang Jun's room, and he asked curiously, "Master, when do you think those Ancient Clan people who are looking for trouble with us will come?"
Tang Jun frowned slightly, "Why would there be Ancient Clan people looking for trouble with us? Which one of you is in trouble? "
"No, Master, when you were chatting with Grandmaster in the past, you said that if Grandmaster comes to propose marriage, there will definitely be one or a few clan brothers who have always been secretly in love with the Ancient Clan Princess, Dao Venerate Qing Ye, and think that they are very powerful to provoke Grandmaster and look for trouble with him." As Duanmu Hong spoke, he gestured with his hands, "Moreover, there will be elders from the Ancient Clan jumping out to look at Grandmaster and obstruct the marriage between Grandmaster and Dao Venerate Qing Ye. They will even say things like how a toad wants to eat swan meat …"
The more Tang Jun listened, the weirder his expression became.
In another quiet room, Lin Feng and Xiao Yan sat opposite each other, staring at each other. After a long while, Lin Feng held his forehead weakly, "Brat, what exactly have you taught your disciples?"
