"Grandpa, why are you so anxious to ask me to come back?"
Zhou Ting walked into Xiao Jianjun's study and couldn't help but ask.
Originally, she was still at the base of the Dragon Soul Special Forces Brigade in the morning, but Xiao Jianjun suddenly called her and asked her to come back immediately.
Because she could hear the urgency in Xiao Jianjun's tone, Zhou Ting had no choice but to rush back from the Dragon Soul Base immediately.
Hearing this, Xiao Jianjun couldn't help but said: "Tingting, it's not that grandpa is looking for you, but your ancestor told me yesterday to ask me to ask you to go to Yanyue Sanxian Island to meet him."
"From the tone of your ancestor's tone, it seemed that he wanted to talk to you about something. He even specifically asked me how your cultivation is now. I guess your ancestor came to you this time for something good."
Zhou Ting couldn't help showing a bit of surprise. She and Yin Xiu had not seen each other for many years and had no contact. She never expected that after so many years, Yin Xiu would suddenly ask her grandpa about her, and also... He specifically asked her to meet at Yanyue Sanxian Island.
"Grandpa, is it... really the Patriarch himself specifically asked you about me, and asked me to go to Yanyue Sanxian Island to meet him?" Zhou Ting asked, still somewhat disbelieving.
Xiao Jianjun smiled and nodded lightly, saying: "It's true. You had known each other before your ancestor met your grandfather back then. Your ancestor looked at you differently. If not, how would your ancestor have known you back then? Will you specifically tell me to give you the elixirs and spiritual stones he left behind as much as possible to meet your cultivation needs?"
"So, your ancestor made a special trip to meet you this time. There must be something good waiting for you..."
Zhou Ting couldn't help but take a deep breath, and the night when she met Yin Xiu for the first time appeared in her mind.
Although she only vaguely caught a glimpse of Yin Xiu that night and fell into a coma. After that, Yin Xiu sealed that memory for a long time, but now this memory is the most profound memory in her mind. one.
The dazed look in Zhou Ting's eyes flashed away, and she recovered immediately. She looked at Xiao Jianjun in front of her and said, "Grandpa, since the Patriarch is looking for me, I will rush over to see the Patriarch tomorrow and have a look. What does he want to do with me?"
"But how do I get to Yanyue Sanxian Island?"
Xiao Jianjun said: "Tomorrow you can go directly to the Taishan branch of Yanyue Sect. Your ancestor has already arranged for someone to take you to Yanyue Sanxian Island to meet him."
"Yeah, okay. Then I'll go to Mount Tai early tomorrow morning." Zhou Ting responded.
Xiao Jianjun nodded slightly, and then said slowly: "Tingting, although your surname is not Xiao, you are still my granddaughter and a member of my Xiao family."
"Several of your cousins have died in the battlefield, and the rest have mediocre qualifications in cultivation and can't achieve anything. Your cousins are all still young, not to mention what they will be able to do in the future. Whether he will become a talented person or not is yet to be determined.”
"Since your ancestor treats you differently, you should seize the opportunity. After all, your grandpa is only your ancestor's registered disciple, not a direct disciple. With just this status and affection, your ancestor will certainly treat us The Xiao family has been taken care of, but in the future our Xiao family will have to rely more on ourselves to prop up the facade."
"We can't disturb your ancestor with all the big and small things. Especially, once your ancestor ascends and leaves in the future, we will have to rely on ourselves. Do you understand?"
After hearing Xiao Jianjun's words of advice, Zhou Ting quickly responded: "Yes, Grandpa, I know what you mean. When I go to see the Patriarch this time, I will try my best to find out what the Patriarch says and ask if he can teach him Give me some magic."
"Um."
Xiao Jianjun responded, "Based on my understanding of your ancestor, unless it is some important secrets that are not passed down, or ordinary techniques, your ancestor will not be stingy."
"For our Xiao family, as long as we can get some skills taught by your ancestor as the foundation for our family to establish a foothold, it will be enough to ensure that in the future, your ancestor will ascend and leave, and grandpa will also run out of life. The relationship between our family and the Yanyue Sect will be over. Even if it is diluted, it can still stand firm."
Although this seems far away at the moment, it is still unknown how long it will take for Yin Xiu to ascend.
As for Xiao Jianjun himself, although his qualifications are not outstanding, he has many resources left by Yin Xiu. If he wants to break through, he will have no problem condensing the golden elixir.
If nothing unexpected happens, it will be at least two hundred years until his lifespan is exhausted.
However, now that the great age is coming, the future will be a brand new era. In the past, a family's business layout was calculated for ten years, or at most, several decades.
But now, if you really have a long-term vision and meet the conditions, you have to plan for hundreds or even thousands of years.
As Xiao Jianjun said, the relationship between the Xiao family and the Yanyue Sect is actually not that complex. The link between the two parties is Yin Xiu.
But if Yin Xiu really ascends and leaves the earth in the future, will the successor of the Yanyue Sect still value the relationship between the Xiao family and Yin Xiu
Moreover, the more something like love is used, the weaker it will become. In the end, you still have to rely on yourself.
Although Yin Xiu passed on some skills, martial arts, and even spells to Xiao Jianjun back then, they were basically only superficial and low-level ones, at most up to the Golden Core level.
If there is no drastic change in the world, these things are enough to ensure that the Xiao family's foundation is stable. As long as it is not in chaos, it will be difficult to decline.
However, now, the exercises, spells, etc. that Yin Xiu taught back then are a little bit insufficient to become the foundation to ensure that the Xiao family will stand firm in the future.
When he met Yin Xiu at Yanyue Sanxian Island before, Xiao Jianjun went there more with national missions. In addition, the relationship between him and Yin Xiu was actually more important than friendship. In some words, he was not It's too easy to speak, but I don't know how to speak.
That day, Yin Xiu took the initiative to ask him about Zhou Ting and asked Zhou Ting to meet him, which immediately made Xiao Jianjun a little worried. He knew that there was a bond between Zhou Ting and Yin Xiu that he did not have, so he said what he just said to Zhou Ting.
Xiao Jianjun's thoughts are understandable. After all, he has to consider the future of the Xiao family.
Moreover, even if Yin Xiu only teaches a few advanced and sophisticated techniques and spells to the Xiao family, it will be enough for the Xiao family to benefit from them endlessly.
Perhaps in Yin Xiu's eyes, those exercises and spells are "junk" that are not worth mentioning at all, but for the Xiao family, they are enough to become the foundation for the Xiao family to stand firm in the future! (To be continued.)
