Chapter 186 Xiao Clan’s Past"Master Xiao, it just so happens that I still have three batches of medicinal materials for the Nine-Star Yin-Yang Pill in my Burning Flame Valley. I will get them for you right away." Hearing Xiao Yun say 30%, Tang Zhen immediately became restless. He wanted to take out the herbs from the storage ring right away and start the furnace right away. "Ahem, um, Valley Master Tang, can we talk about the reward first?" Xiao Yun interrupted Tang Zhen hastily, fearing that he would really ask him to start refining the medicine right now. “Right, right.” Hearing this, Tang Zhen was startled. He was so excited just now that he almost forgot the rules of the pharmacist. He smiled and said, “Master Xiao, an eighth-grade pill is also related to the strength of my ancestor. How about this, Master Xiao, after you have refined the elixir, you can choose three things from my Burning Flame Valley's treasure house, how about that?" What I want is your words! After hearing Tang Zhen's words, Xiao Yun smiled slightly and said slowly, "Valley Master Tang, does this treasure house contain the skills and fighting techniques of the Burning Flame Valley?" "Oh?" The Fire Cloud Patriarch beside him was a little surprised. He looked at Xiao Yun and said, "Xiao Yun, with your talent and master, do you still lack skills and fighting techniques?" "Ancestor, I actually want to fight for the sake of the family heritage!" Under the gaze of the two, the smile on Xiao Yun's face faded, and turned into a solemn expression. He said in a deep voice: "Ancestor, I wonder if you have heard of the Xiao clan?"
"Xiao clan?" Upon hearing Xiao Yun's words, Patriarch Huoyun's pupils suddenly shrank, while Tang Zhen beside him was confused. "Xiao clan? Xiao Yun? Boy, are you from the Xiao clan?" "That's right, ancestor, but the Xiao clan is now in decline. It might be more appropriate to call it the Xiao family." Xiao Yun admitted this, but said with regret that the strongest person in the Xiao family now was only him, a Dou Zun, which was far inferior to the Xiao family in the ancient period of the eight clans. "Ancestor, Master Xiao, what are you talking about? Which family is the Xiao clan? How come I have never heard of it before?" Seeing the two of them communicating as if in a charade, Tang Zhen was a little confused and asked quickly. Ancestor Huoyun looked at him deeply, lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said slowly: "Xiao Zhen, since you are already the master of Burning Flame Valley, you should also remember this history." "The Xiao clan was once an extremely powerful clan. Thousands of years ago, it was considered the number one clan in the entire Douqi Continent!" "Do you still remember Xiao Xuan whom I once told you about?" "Remember, ancestor." Tang Zhen nodded repeatedly, and finally a word he understood appeared, and he said: "Xiao Xuan is the founder of my Fenyan Valley, and the Fenyan Ancestor is a close friend." "At the same time, Senior Xiao Xuan and Ancestor Fen Yan were also two of the five most powerful people in the Dou Qi Continent of that era." After hearing his words, Patriarch Huoyun nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, there are still people who remember this history, and Xiaoyun is the descendant of the former strongest man Xiao Xuan!" "At that time, their tribe was also known as the Xiao Clan. Unfortunately, Senior Xiao Xuan died suddenly when he was in his prime, and the Xiao Clan was attacked by their enemies and wiped out overnight. Senior Xiao Xuan and Ancestor Fenyan were close friends. The Ancestor wanted to rescue the Xiao Clan, but was attacked by other powerful people. In the end, Fenyan Valley only transported some of the Xiao Clan away from Zhongzhou Continent." Hearing this secret, Tang Zhen's face was full of disbelief. No wonder he had never heard of any force called the Xiao clan or the Xiao family that was famous in Zhongzhou. This Xiao family was even more miserable than their Fenyan Valley. After the death of their Fenyan Ancestor Fenyan in Fenyan Valley, at most there were no more figures like the Fenyan Ancestor, and the clan gradually declined, while the Xiao clan was unexpectedly wiped out overnight! "From the looks of you, you should know this history?" Patriarch Huoyun glanced at Tang Zhen, then looked at Xiao Yun who had a calm expression on the side, and said slowly. "That's right, ancestor, there is a historical record of this in our family, so I also know the relationship between Guigu and the Xiao clan." Xiao Yun nodded and lied without blushing. What a joke, there is no record of the Xiao family, how desolate they are, the whole family uses a single Xuan-level technique, and the clan leader's cultivation has even reached the terrifying level of a great fighting master! If it weren't for his sudden appearance, the Xiao family would still be the hegemon of Wutan City. "I didn't expect that the once-lost Xiao family would have a figure like Senior Xiao Xuan!" Ancestor Huoyun was a little excited. He stood up from the stone chair and paced slowly. "Grandfather, you are too polite. My talent is so limited that I cannot compare to that of our ancestor Xiao Xuan." This is not his modesty. Xiao Xuan is indeed an incredible person. At the age of fifteen, he was a Dou Zun, and in an era without source energy, he managed to break through to the Semi-Emperor realm.
If Xiao Yun didn't have a bottleneck-free panel, he really couldn't compare to this cheap ancestor. "Haha, don't underestimate yourself. You are only about twenty years old, but not only has your cultivation reached the level of a four-star Dou Zun, but your alchemy skills have also reached the level of an eighth-grade grandmaster. This kind of talent is already unrivaled in the world." Patriarch Huoyun said with a smile, looking at Xiao Yun with eyes full of pity for his talent. "The rise of the Xiao clan is just around the corner. But my Burning Flame Valley has not yet produced a genius comparable to the Burning Flame Ancestor, not even half as talented as him." When talking about the Burning Flame Valley, Patriarch Huoyun let out a long sigh, feeling extremely exhausted for his own forces. "Ancestor, please don't say that. Huo'er is quite talented, isn't she? She will definitely be able to strengthen our Fenyan Valley in the future." Hearing his ancestor say this, Tang Zhen hurriedly defended himself. "Huo'er's talent is not the strongest even in the Western Region, let alone the entire Central Plains." "Did you know that Xiao Yun not only has reached Dou Zun's cultivation, but also has a semi-saint level strange fire in his body?" "!" Hearing this, Tang Zhen's jaw dropped open, and he looked at the boy in front of him in disbelief. A semi-saint-level strange fire? He remembered that the last time they met, didn't Xiao Yun still use the fourteenth-ranked Fallen Heart Flame? He remembered it clearly at the time. The Fallen Heart Flame was at most Dou Zong level. How could it be possible to turn into a strange fire comparable to a half-saint in such a short time! "Ancestor, have you figured it out?" Although Xiao Yun was shocked when Ancestor Huoyun pointed out the existence of the Eight Desolate Destruction Flame, he did not deny it. With a wave of his hand, a pitch-black flame burst out. "Black? Master Xiao, wasn't the flame you mentioned before the Fallen Heart Flame? And this fluctuation, I'm afraid it's from the top ten of the Strange Fire List, right?" The moment the pitch-black flame appeared, Tang Zhen only felt the Nine Dragons Thunder Fire in his body tremble violently and frantically warn, as if it had encountered some natural enemy. Although he had controlled the Nine Dragons Thunder Fire for many years, he had never seen it appear in this state. (End of this chapter)
