In the imperial capital of the Jiuxiao Divine Dynasty, in the Xiao family's palace, in an extremely remote and quiet fairy mountain, Xiao Zhan, the emperor of the Jiuxiao Divine Dynasty, was standing on a cliff in the mountain, looking at the prosperity of the imperial capital. This fairy mountain was located in the Xiao family's palace and was the Xiao family's sacred mountain.
Standing on this fairy mountain, Xiao Zhan can have a panoramic view of the scenery of the imperial capital.
At this moment, an old, hoarse voice came from a cave behind Xiao Zhan: "Xiao Zhan! Has something happened again?"
Xiao Zhan sighed, turned around, and bowed towards the cave, saying, "Grandfather, this time the Xiao family may really be doomed!"
The voice in the cave rang out again: "The Feng and Xue families are making another move, right?"
Xiao Zhan nodded and said, "Yes, the Xue and Feng families have contacted two forces in the Advanced Continent. These two forces have sent people to the Imperial Capital. Our insiders in the Feng and Xue families just sent us news that they are planning to force the emperor to abdicate at the Grand Court in three days!"
As big families in the Jiuxiao Divine Dynasty, the Feng and Xue families naturally have ways to connect with the advanced continent. Otherwise, their families would not be able to obtain the hidden stone and give birth to immortals and gods.
The reason why they were so bold this time was because the high-level mainland forces behind them sent experts to support them. Otherwise, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. Even if the Xiao family has declined now, they would not dare to target the Xiao family.
The door of the cave suddenly opened, and then an old man who looked nearly a hundred years old, with white hair and beard, and a face full of scars, appeared in front of Xiao Zhan. This man was the patron saint of the Xiao family, the ancestor of the Xiao family, Xiao Longtu!
Seeing Xiao Longtu suddenly appear, Xiao Zhan was startled and hurriedly walked up to him and said, "Grandfather, why did you come out? Your body..."
Xiao Longtu smiled calmly and said, "It's okay. My old bones won't live long anyway, so I don't mind these few days."
In the battle a thousand years ago, Xiao Longtu injured his origin. No matter how he adjusted his breathing, his body was deteriorating and could no longer be healed by cultivation.
Xiao Zhan's nose felt a little sore. He had lived for tens of thousands of years, but seeing his once high-spirited ancestor end up in this situation, he still felt very sad. This ancestor really gave everything for the Xiao family.
Xiao Longtu glanced at Xiao Zhan and said calmly, "Zhan'er, everyone is doomed to die. Even those with stronger cultivation than me cannot avoid death. I have lived for tens of millions of years and have nothing to worry about. You don't have to feel sad for me. It's a pity that I didn't wait for the person my father said!"
Xiao Longtu's father was the founding emperor of the Jiuxiao Divine Dynasty.
Xiao Zhan asked in a heavy voice, "Grandfather, there's something I want to say, but Zhan'er doesn't know whether he should say it or not!"
Xiao Longtu said calmly, "Just say whatever you want to say! Is there anything between us that cannot be said? Maybe if we don't say it today, we won't have the chance to say it in the future, but it doesn't matter if you say it!"
Today, there is only one immortal-level strongman left in the Xiao family, Xiao Longtu, who represents the strongest combat power of the entire Xiao family.
Xiao Zhan took a deep breath and asked, "Ancestor, is the legend of our Xiao family true? Does the person we are waiting for really exist? I know that the people from the Advanced Continent are targeting us because of the legend of our Xiao family and the legendary sword of our Xiao family."
Xiao Zhan knew very well why those people from the advanced continents paid a price to come to the Qingluo Continent.
They're after that sword!
Xiao Longtu sighed and said, "Zhan'er, I don't blame you for having such doubts. In fact, I also had doubts about whether my father's last words were true. But since the sword exists, it proves that the legend is true. You also know the power of that sword."
Xiao Zhan gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, that sword does have the power to destroy heaven and earth, but it also has great side effects. Ordinary people can't control it at all. If you hadn't used that sword, your body wouldn't have been corroded to this extent. Perhaps you would still..."
"But it protected the Xiao family after all, didn't it?" Xiao Longtu interrupted Xiao Zhan.
Xiao Zhan was silent. That sword had indeed made great contributions to the Xiao family. Every time the Xiao family was in crisis, it was the elders of the Xiao family who relied on that sword to repel the powerful enemies.
However, all the members of the Xiao family who had used that sword died tragically, attacked by the powerful backlash of the sword. Only Xiao Longtu survived, but he ended up like this.
It was because of this sword that the Xiao family attracted countless powerful enemies and lost many talented people.
Sometimes Xiao Zhan really thought that if there were any more enemies coming to fight for this sword, he might as well just give it away, because this sword would bring disaster rather than blessing.
But Xiao Longtu always believed that only with the existence of this sword could the Xiao family complete their mission and wait for the person they wanted to wait for.
Xiao Longtu said softly, "Zhan'er! Help me over there and let me see the scenery of the imperial capital!"
Xiao Zhan was stunned for a moment, then quickly helped Xiao Longtu to the top of the cliff.
The mountain breeze ruffled Xiao Longtu's hair and beard. He looked at the prosperous scene in the imperial capital and said with satisfaction, "It's been a long time since I last visited this city. Although it has changed a lot from before, it's still as familiar as before."
"Ancestor..."
"Zhan'er, prepare well for the court meeting in three days! Send away the young men of the Xiao family if possible! Leave a future for the Xiao family. I will still wield that sword this time. I will use it to fight for the Xiao family once more."
Although Xiao Longtu's body was hunched, in Xiao Zhan's eyes, he was shining brightly at this moment.
…
Three days passed in a flash. During these three days, ordinary warriors in the imperial capital of the Jiuxiao Divine Dynasty all felt the changes in the imperial capital.
Within the imperial capital, troops from the General's Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion were constantly being mobilized. The gates of the imperial capital had been completely closed three days ago, and no one was allowed to enter or leave.
The royal Xiao family acquiesced to this fact and did not make any sound, but simply withdrew the power belonging to the Xiao family into the imperial city.
Everyone who knows the situation of the Jiuxiao Divine Dynasty knows that things are about to change in the Jiuxiao Divine Dynasty.
The storm is brewing, and the imperial capital of the Jiuxiao Divine Dynasty is surging with undercurrents.
When Xiao Chen and others arrived at the imperial capital of the Jiuxiao Divine Dynasty, the gate of the imperial capital had already been closed.
Flying is prohibited in the imperial capital, and Xiao Chen also wants to keep a low profile, so he put away the demon-horned beast a thousand miles away from the imperial capital.
Standing not far from the city gate, Xiao Jinyu looked at the closed gate and said worriedly, "Are they going to take action?"
