Chapter 179 Wishes

Strictly speaking, the Xiao family was once a powerful family, a family that was older and more powerful than the Shentu family, with a thousand-year-old inheritance history.

There have also been great figures in the history of the Xiao family. They were super masters who were much more tyrannical than Shen Tuce.

Every Xiao family is proud of the glorious history of the Xiao family. The family glory that has been passed down through countless years of history is almost integrated into the bones of the Xiao family.

But time is always so ruthless, no matter how brilliant and powerful a family is, after a thousand years, it may also decline.

And the Xiao family is just one of many families that have been eliminated by history.

Among the many declining families, the Xiao family's situation is not bad. You must know that some families were more brilliant and stronger than the Xiao family at the beginning, but now, they may have been wiped out, and not a single clan has survived.

In any case, the Xiao family did have a glorious history, and it was considered the oldest family in the entire Tongzhou Prefecture.

Although this ancient family has decayed and declined, and no one even remembers its former glory, the Xiao family will never forget it, because that is the only thing they are proud of.

Xiao Zhantian thought that the Xiao family would continue to decline and eventually fade away, but now, he sees hope again!

"Haha...ha! There is hope for our family! Second brother, there is hope for our family!" Xiao Zhantian couldn't help laughing. But two lines of tears slipped out.

Xiao Yan stared at Xiao Zhantian: "Uncle."

Xiao Xiner also looked at Xiao Zhantian suspiciously: "Uncle Xiao."

"Big Brother!" Xiao Yan couldn't understand Xiao Zhantian's emotions, but Xiao Ding understood it very well, because he also felt the same as Xiao Zhantian, "Yes, you are right, there is hope for our family!"

He clenched his hands into fists, and there was an uplifting and irrepressible excitement in his heart: "If my father knew about this, he would be very happy!"

Xiao Wuwei has been working hard for the rise of the Xiao family all his life, which seems to have become his mission and his lifelong obsession.

It is precisely because of this obsession, because of the longing for and yearning for the once brilliant, that he will value his ancestor's teaching so much, and therefore, the performance of the elders of the Xiao family and others when the major clans bully them, will they treat him. causing such a huge blow.

He dreamed of leading the Xiao family to rise, hoping to see a brilliant Xiao family in his lifetime, but over the years, no matter how hard he tried, he could not see the slightest hope. Now even a little disheartened.

"It's a pity that my father didn't come." Xiao Zhantian's eyes darkened, and he said regretfully.

Shen Tuce, Teng Guang and Wei Hai next to looked at Xiao Zhantian and Xiao Ding curiously.

They are not the Xiao family, so it is naturally difficult to understand the special feelings in the hearts of the Xiao family.

Xiao Ding shook his head, turned his eyes to Xiao Yan, and said solemnly: "Yan'er, you should know that our Xiao family was once a brilliant and powerful family!"

Hearing this, Xiao Yan nodded.

As for the glorious history of the Xiao family, every child of the Xiao family remembers it very clearly. Although they don't know the specific situation, it is certain that when the Xiao family was at its strongest, it even occupied a trace of weight in the entire wilderness continent.

"Since hundreds of years ago, our Xiao family has become more and more declining. Our ancestors have worked hard to manage it. We hope that one day we will be able to reproduce the glorious glory. For hundreds of years, the Xiao family has been working hard for this. Your grandfather, grandfather, Your grandfather dedicated their lives to the Xiao family." Xiao Ding took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "If nothing else happens, your uncle and I will also shoulder this responsibility in the future to revive the glory of the Xiao family. , this is not only the expectation of our ancestors, but also the wish of every one of our Xiao family members!"

Xiao Yan listened quietly.

The surrounding Shentuce, Tengguang and others also listened with great interest.

"A few years ago, when you first started practicing cultivation, you showed your amazing talent. Do you know how happy your grandfather was at that time?" Xiao Ding still remembers Xiao Wuwei's excited and excited appearance at that time. There was a hint of trembling, "At that time, all of us were very excited, because, after so many years, we finally saw hope, the hope of the rise of the Xiao family!"

Xiao Yan did not speak, he could imagine how happy his grandfather, father and others were at that time.

It's a pity that his amazing talent was like a flash in the pan, and it disappeared after a while.

"However, God is so cruel. When we were most excited, it suddenly took away our hope." Xiao Ding clenched his fists and his voice became much heavier, "The news that you suddenly can't cultivate is like a thunderbolt from the blue. Catch everyone by surprise..."

Xiao Yan at that time was at a low point in his life, suffering and despairing, but Xiao Wuwei and others were even more painful and desperate than him!

Xiao Yan was silent, he could vaguely understand the mood of his father, grandfather and others at that time.

"For several years, we have tried every means, at any cost, to try to help you solve your problems, but it was of no use at all. One year, two years, three years... We gradually lost hope and almost gave up. "Xiao Ding has a look of exhaustion in his eyes, and one can imagine what kind of pressure he has endured in the past few years.

Suddenly, he raised his head, his emotions were also lifted, and his face showed a touch of excitement: "But we never imagined that you would be a blessing in disguise and joined the Sky Academy. Now, you have not only solved the problem of not being able to cultivate, but also showed an even more terrifying appearance. The talent. In more than ten days, from the third level of Kaixuan to the eighth level of Kaixuan... This kind of talent is simply unheard of, and it is not too much to say that he is the first genius of the Zhou Dynasty."

Xiao Ding looked at Xiao Yan, full of excitement and relief.

He is not at all shy about the outsiders around him, and his praise for Xiao Yan is not at all subtle.

Xiao Yan, worthy of his praise!

Xiao Yan touched his nose and didn't know what to say. It was the first time he heard his father's compliment so frankly when he was so grown up, and he felt a little embarrassed in his heart.

"Xiao Yan!" Xiao Ding's tone was very solemn, he even called Xiao Yan's name, which made people feel particularly serious, "When you grow up, I will no longer treat you as a child. Remember, from From today onwards, you are the pillar of our Xiao family's future! It's up to you to revive the Xiao family's former glory!"

He knows that his talent is mediocre, and he may end his life when he cultivates to the Vortex Upper Realm.

Xiao Zhantian's talent is almost the same as his, and his future achievements are also very limited.

Compared with them, the rest of the Xiao family are even more unbearable and cannot be counted on at all.

The only person they can rely on now is Xiao Yan, and only Xiao Yan can hope to shoulder this important task and restore the former glory of the Xiao family!

"Me? Can I do it?" Xiao Yan hesitated, suddenly shouldering a heavy responsibility, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

"In more than ten days, from the third level of Kaixuan to the eighth level of Kaixuan. If you can't do it, no one will. Xiao Yan's nephew, don't underestimate yourself." Xiao Zhantian laughed, he was very fond of Xiao Yan Confidence, such a shocking cultivation speed, he still feels a little unreal to this day, but Xiao Yan's current cultivation base is indeed the eighth level of enlightenment. Only ten days.

"Xiao Yan, as a child of the Xiao family, you must shoulder this responsibility!" Xiao Ding looked at Xiao Yan seriously, his voice even seemed a little stern, full of expectations, "Your grandfather, your grandfather, and the ancestors of the Xiao family have all been I look forward to revitalizing the Xiao family! This is not only your grandfather's wish, but also mine! Xiao Yan, remember, for me, for your grandfather, and for the sake of the Xiao family for generations, you must shoulder this responsibility, and you must succeed! "

The Xiao family has been in decline for too long. If it continues to decline like this, sooner or later, it will be submerged in the vast history and turned into a speck of dust.

Hearing Xiao Ding's stern words, Xiao Yan's heart trembled. He could fully understand Xiao Ding's deep expectations.

After being silent for a while, Xiao Yan slowly raised his head and said solemnly: "Father, I assure you that I will work hard to revive the Xiao family and restore the Xiao family to its former glory!"

"It's not an effort, it's a must!"

"Yes." Xiao Yan took a deep breath, his clear eyes were full of determination, "I will definitely revive the Xiao family!"

Xiao Ding's expression suddenly softened, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face: "Yan'er, I believe in you!"

This smile may be Xiao Ding's happiest and most relaxed smile in decades. The pressure that has been on his heart for many years has quietly dissipated.

He seemed to have seen the rise of the Xiao family, and saw the picture of the Xiao family reappearing in glory.

"Yan'er, don't blame Dad for being cruel, it's really... Dad is just a waste. He wants to revive the Xiao family, but he can't do anything. He can only watch the Xiao family decline day by day..." Xiao Ding sighed and put The burden was on his son, and of course he was very distressed, but he had no other way.

Xiao Yan shook his head and said with a smile, "Father, you don't need to say anything, I understand."

Xiao Ding looked at the calm and smiling son, and couldn't help but patted the latter's shoulder: "Good boy, Dad, I'm sorry for you."

"Okay, second brother, stop talking, Xiao Yan is so sensible, he will definitely understand you." Xiao Zhantian laughed and interjected: "To be honest, I really envy you, there is someone so sensible and talented My son, that **** in my family is too far behind Xiao Yan."

Hearing this, Xiao Ding showed a hint of pride on his face.

Xiao Zhantian has been at odds with him for many years, and has never said anything nice about him, but today, Xiao Zhantian praised Xiao Yan so much, how could he not be happy, how could he not be proud?

"I, Xiao Ding, have nothing in my life, but I have a son, an amazing son!"

Xiao Ding was full of pride. He felt that the most correct decision in his life was to marry Xiao Yan's mother and give birth to Xiao Yan's son.

"Uncle is joking. Cousin Xiao Ning is not bad, and he is very popular. I am just lucky." Xiao Yan maintained his usual modesty.

He and Xiao Ning didn't have much friendship, and even had a little conflict, but it didn't reach the point of being hostile.

Xiao Zhantian shook his head, everyone knew the truth.

Xiao Ding suddenly frowned: "Brother, did we forget something?" He faintly felt that he seemed to have forgotten something important.

"Strange, as soon as you said it, I felt the same way." Xiao Zhantian was also puzzled when he heard it.

The two looked at each other, and after a few seconds, they reacted immediately, and then looked behind him in a panic, Xiao Ding was incoherent: "Sorry, sorry, senior, I just saw my son, I was so excited, I almost forgot. you…"
