Four thousand years? Originally, Xia Yan thought that the history of more than 400 years was already very long. But now, the third grandfather told him that the Xia family has a history of more than four thousand years. How could this surprise him
"Don't be surprised! In fact, the first ancestor of our Xia family was a holy emperor! Since that ancestor passed away, our Xia family has gradually declined. The current Xia family is far less powerful than before!" Xia Changhe With a sigh, he said disappointedly.
Xia Yan was really shocked! He never knew this information. The earliest ancestor of the Xia family turned out to be a holy emperor? Xia Yan knew about the Holy Emperor. The strongest person in the Dragon Continent is the Holy Emperor! The Holy Emperor is in charge of the Holy Land, the Holy Land is in charge of the Temple, and the Temple is in charge of the Temple!
And the highest center of power in a county like Yushui City is the Holy Church! In the entire Dragon Continent, there are thousands of temples. It can be seen from this how much power the Holy Emperor has. It can be said that the Holy Emperor controls the entire Dragon Continent!
"This ring was left by that ancestor. This ring is called the Lingluo Ring. In fact, this Lingluo Ring has always been passed on to the next patriarch in the family. However, the previous patriarch of our Xia family But he passed the ring to me." Xia Changhe said with a slightly wry smile.
The previous head of the Xia family was Xia Changhe's father. He passed this ring to Xia Changhe, of course he had selfish motives.
After Xia Yan was shocked, he took the black lacquered ring from Xia Changhe's hand, put it on his own hand, and stroked it carefully. On the ring, there are many small lines that have not been rubbed off with the passage of time. The material of the ring is very strong. Although it has been passed down for four thousand years, these lines are still very clear.
"Xia Yan, don't lose this Lingluo ring." Xia Changhe said with a solemn expression, "Actually, our Xia family has always had a legend about this ring, and this Lingluo ring is not ordinary. Ring. If you can open this ring, you can gain the power in the ring and become a peerless powerhouse. Alas, unfortunately... In the past four thousand years, our Xia family has experienced hundreds of patriarchs, but no one can open this ring. Ring. Now, even our clansmen have gradually forgotten this legend. But, Xia Yan, no matter what, I hope this ring will bring you good luck!" Xia Changhe finally patted Xia Yan's shoulder, Xia Yan felt the weight on the shoulder, and the bright light in his eyes flashed.
"Third Grandfather, I want to participate in the selection of outstanding children of the family next year! I want to study at Ziye College. Only by going to Ziye College can I challenge the head of the temple as soon as possible!" Xia Yan said firmly.
"Purple Leaf Academy? The head of the temple?!" Xia Changhe was slightly taken aback, and said with a wry smile, "Xia Yan, you haven't got one of your meridians right now. Next year's selection, what do you think..."
"Forget it, Xia Yan, come on, I hope you can pass the selection!" Xia Changhe suddenly smiled and looked at Xia Yan kindly. Obviously, Xia Changhe was insincere, he didn't quite believe that Xia Yan could do it.
Xia Yan nodded his head solemnly, no matter how difficult it is, he will work hard to achieve the goal. Among the children of the family under the age of fifteen, Xia Liu, the most accomplished person, has opened up 87 of the 108 meridians!
Seeing Xia Changhe's leaving back, Xia Yan gradually digested the information he just heard. From morning to afternoon, from afternoon to evening, and from evening to morning, Xia Yanzai carefully looked at the ring on his hand hundreds of times, and even forgot about his hunger, and did not see the dark ring. Something is wrong with the ring.
The sun rises, and the bright sunlight shines on the courtyard through the tall purple tung tree leaves. Xia Yan sits cross-legged under the purple tung tree, with his eyes closed and a faint red tide on his face. It is necessary to control the internal force like a gossamer to open up the meridians in the body.
Tried again and again, failed again and again, the sun slowly slid to the top of the head, Xia Yan had tried countless times, but none of them succeeded, and there was still no sign of the first meridian being opened. However, there was no discouragement on Xia Yan's handsome face. He has never given up on cultivation in the past ten years.
Suddenly, at this time, there was a sound of fine footsteps from outside the courtyard. Hearing this sound, Xia Yan knew it was the footsteps of a woman.
"Could it be that Xiao Cui again?!" Xia Yan frowned, knowing that someone was about to enter the yard, so he opened his eyes first and stood up from the ground. Feeling resentful in his heart, he looked towards the gate of the courtyard with a trace of dissatisfaction. He didn't like the patriarch's ordering girl Xiaocui very much.
In a flash, a tall and slender woman appeared in Xia Yan's eyes. The woman who entered Xia Yan's simple courtyard was not Xiaocui, the patriarch's servant girl.
"Are you Master Xia Yan?!" Seeing the plain Xia Yan in the courtyard, the woman was stunned for a while. It was obviously the first time she had seen Xia Yan, and then she opened her small mouth and asked with an uncertain taste.
Xia Yan nodded, he didn't recognize this woman, but judging by her clothes, she should also be a servant girl of the Xia family.
"Master Xia Yan, my name is Xiaoyu, and my lady is Xia Zixin! The lady told me to bring you a book!" Xiaoyu looked around and saw no one else. She took out an ancient book with a blue cover from her pink skirt. Judging by her appearance, Xia Zixin must have told her not to let others see it. There are a few gold writings on the blue cover, which is called "Luo Ying Po Yu Jian".
Xia Yan looked directly at Xiaoyu, her thin body did not move.
Xiaoyu puffed her pink cheeks, feeling a little unhappy, and secretly said, "Although I haven't been in Xia's house for a long time, I've been with Miss, and I know the status of you as a young master in Xia's house. Miss kindly asked me to send you the cheat book Cultivation, but you show me such a face."
Although Xiaoyu was unhappy, she had no choice but to continue: "Miss asked me to send this book for Master Xia Yan to read carefully. She said she hoped this book would be helpful to Master."
When Xia Yan saw this cheat book, he knew that it should be Xia Zixin's own cultivation cheat book. Although this cheat book is not considered top-notch, it is the top grade among the low-level cheat books. The Xia family's general juniors will not have the opportunity to practice this secret book.
Hearing a hint of displeasure in Xiaoyu's tone, Xia Yan's face didn't change at all. The secret book of Xia Yan's cultivation was obtained secretly by Xia Changhe. Although it is not popular, it is not much different from this "Falling Flowers Breaking Jade Sword". Therefore, there is no need for Xia Yan to accept this cheat book.
Xia Yan said indifferently: "Thank you Miss for me, but I don't need this cheat book, please take it back!"
As he spoke, Xia Yan waved his hand slightly, as if to see off the guests.
Xiaoyu obviously didn't expect Xia Yan to have such an attitude, and she still didn't accept the cheat book. After being slightly stunned, a look of anger appeared on her pink face.
After two or three breaths, Xiaoyu stomped her little foot fiercely, grunted dissatisfiedly, turned around and left quickly. If it was in front of other young masters, Xiaoyu would not dare to express this dissatisfaction.
Xia Yan shook his head with a bitter smile, and muttered to himself: "Thank you for your kindness, you just asked the maid to send the cheat book, you think I'm just a waste, right? Walking with me will embarrass you In that case, why did you send someone to send this cheat book? Could it be that you feel uneasy?!"
Standing alone in the courtyard for a while, Xia Yan went back to her room, skillfully put several clothes of similar styles into a floral package, turned around and went out of the courtyard and closed the old door. wooden door.
"Didn't he even take a look?!" A woman in a white skirt narrowed her eyes in an exquisite small courtyard in the backyard of the Xia family, and asked in a resentful tone.
Standing respectfully in front of her was the maid Xiaoyu who had just returned from Xia Yan's residence. Xiaoyu was holding the cheat book of "Luo Ying Po Yu Jian" in a blue cover in her hand.
"Yes, Miss, when he saw this book, he still smiled indifferently, as if he looked down on the book that Miss gave him! However, that young master Xia Yan was really good-looking. I think that among all the young masters in the Xia family , only Master Xia Yan is the prettiest." Xiaoyu curled her lips, thinking of Xia Yan's smile at that time, she felt angry. But thinking of Xia Yan's handsome appearance, he couldn't help but praise him.
"Forget it, since he doesn't need it, just treat me as a good person for nothing and let him go!" Xia Zixin waved her white, smooth, soft and boneless arms and sighed slightly.
From her point of view, Xia Yan is overthinking his capabilities, and at this point, he is still desperate for face. Xinyou sighed faintly: "Forget it, in the future, what you will look like in the future is all your business. However, I will always remember the love between you and me as a brother and sister."
