Chapter 1285: Heart Knot
"Meet the Second Young Master!" the guard knelt down at the same time and said respectfully.
Xiao Chen smiled and hurriedly asked everyone to get up: "You're welcome. ”
"Hurry up and tell the patriarch, and the eldest young master, the second young master is back, hurry up, hurry up!" Xiao He said excitedly, his speech was a little slurred, and someone immediately walked quickly towards the gate.
Xiao He said respectfully: "Second young master, go, go in, the old master and the eldest young master, but I have been missing you." ”
But Xiao Chen walked halfway and looked at the door, but hesitated again.
"Second Young Master, what's wrong. Xiao He said strangely.
Is it homesickness?
It's been a long time since I looked forward to coming back, but this moment really came, and in front of the gate, Xiao Chen hesitated a little.
With a self-deprecating smile, Xiao Chen clarified his true intention, and only hesitated for a moment before knowing his choice.
"It's fine, just thinking about some of the past. ”
Xiao Chen said softly and continued to walk forward, Xiao He accompanied him, pointing the way.
One step, two steps, three steps, finally crossed the door, after many years, Xiao Chen once again stepped into the Xiao family.
When he stepped into the door, Xiao Chen felt that a knot in his heart was suddenly opened, and he felt extremely relaxed on his body.
The heart is more thorough, in fact, for so many years, all kinds of things in the Kunlun world have made him already understand his father's hard work that day.
The Xiao family's lineage, exiled from this, has no capital. I really don't dare to let a descendant with the Qinglong martial soul stay in the Xiao family, for the sake of the lives of hundreds of people up and down the Xiao family.
Xiao Xiong that day had to make a decision to drive away his biological son.
In fact, he never hated this father, just like when he drove him away in Xiao Xiong. He didn't complain too much, but knelt down three times to thank him, and each kneeling broke his head and bleed.
didn't go far, there was a burst of mighty footsteps ahead, and Xiao Chen didn't need his divine sense to strafe to know who was coming.
stopped, but in a moment, a team of people met Xiao Chen.
Xiao Jian took the lead, Xiao Ling'er Ye Lan accompanied him, and in the center of the crowd, there was a familiar and unfamiliar face, his father Xiao Xiong.
The indelible connection from the bloodline made Xiao Chen feel cordial for no reason, and he couldn't help but say, "Father, I'm back." ”
A father, let Xiao Xiong, an iron man, have wet eyes. I haven't seen Xiao Chen for more than ten years, except for the great change in his temperament, his delicate appearance, like that of seventeen or eighteen years old, has not changed much.
"Hahahaha, Second Young Master, you're finally back. ”
"Hurry up, Sister Ling'er wants to die. ”
Xiao Xiong didn't move, and a group of Xiao Ling'er, as well as Ye Lan, quickly surrounded him. Gossiping, bombarding in turns, asking non-stop.
This group of family members didn't regard him as a Qinglong King, but only regarded him as the second young master of the Xiao family, a relative who had not returned for more than ten years.
The strong family affection surrounded Xiao Chen, making him feel happy and forgetting many of the sorrows of the Kunlun realm.
"Are you Brother Xiao Chen, how can you look younger than Ling'er and me, hurry up and prove yourself, or I won't let you in." Xiao Linger was happy, but she was still as naughty as before.
Xiao Jianxun said: "Don't mess around, my father hasn't spoken yet." ”
Xiao Xiong showed a rare smile on his face: "It's good to come back, let's have a meal, I have already asked my subordinates to prepare." ”
Xiao Chen nodded: "Listen to my father." ”
When the father and son met, the unexpected harmony, the embarrassment that Xiao Chen imagined, under the impact of family affection, there was nothing at all.
This meal was the happiest Xiao Chen had eaten in many years. He has lived in many top hotels in Kunlun and eaten all kinds of spirit beast delicacies, but none of them can compare to here.
On the table, Xiao Chen answered his cousin's questions simply. Of course, the dangers he encountered in Kunlun and the difficulties along the way were not mentioned.
The entire Xiao Mansion was immersed in joy, and Xiao Chen's return made this mansion look extremely happy up and down.
After dinner, Xiao Jian came to Xiao Chen's room alone and led him to his father's study.
"Big brother, have you ever thought about going to Kunlun. On the way, Xiao Chen asked casually.
When he came back to the Xiao family, he had a big idea, that is, he wanted the children of the Xiao family to take Kunlun. Although he is not yet extravagant, he will bring Xiao Chen thousands of people up and down one by one. You can bring some close relatives, three or two should be no problem.
The resources consumed, he still bears.
But a very important question is whether the children of the Xiao family are willing or not.
Xiao Jian shook his head and said, "Kunlun, if I had this opportunity ten years ago, I would definitely be willing to give it a go." But now that I'm in my thirties, I've missed out on my golden age, and if I go back, I'm afraid I won't be able to do anything. ”
The eldest brother seems to be very sensible and does not regard Kunlun as a paradise.
In fact, Xiao Chen was also worried about this, and when he got Xiao Jian's idea, he didn't insist on it.
"Go in by yourself, my father has something to say to you alone. ”
In front of the study, Xiao Jian said.
After sorting out his thoughts, Xiao Chen pushed open the door and walked into the elegantly decorated and simple study.
Father Xiao Xiong, who was looking through a book, saw Xiao Chen put the book down, and looked at Xiao Chen a little stunned.
"When you come back this time, you should have something else to do besides being homesick, tell me about it. After a long time, Xiao Xiong put the book down and said softly.
Xiao Chen said truthfully: "I rebuilt the Dragon Gate and wanted to pick up some talented children of the Xiao family. ”
"What!"
Xiao Xiong got up from the chair, walked to Xiao Chen's side, and said with some incredulity, his expression extremely surprised.
"Are you injured, how did you survive, why do you want to rebuild the dragon gate?"
A series of questions came out of Xiao Xiong's mouth, and the first thing he cared about was whether Xiao Chen was injured, rather than how strong he cared about, which made Xiao Chen feel a burst of warmth in his heart for no reason.
Xiao Chen said with a smile: "The child is fine, even if the Martial Emperor of the Little Heaven wants to kill me now, the child has a way to deal with it." ”
Comparable to the strength of Emperor Wu?
Xiao Xiong was shocked again, and after half a ring, his eyes were a little wet, and he whispered: "It seems that I did lose my eyes at the beginning, and I shouldn't have driven you away, I did something wrong." It's also that I'm not strong enough to let you suffer so many grievances. ”
Xiao Chen said with a straight face: "No, father, you don't have to blame yourself, everything that happened in Kunlun, I already understand my father's good intentions." It's the child who is not filial, and he passed by the door several times and didn't enter, I should have come back a long time ago, and I shouldn't have run away. ”
Seeing the tears in his father's eyes, Xiao Chen's heart was sour, he knelt on the ground, and said the words that had been suppressed in his heart for a long time: "It's the child's mistake, no excuse can be a reason to pass by the door and not enter." For more than ten years, my father must have worried about me day and night, and I should have come back a long time ago. ”
The tears in Xiao Xiong's eyes finally couldn't help but flow out, and the knot that had been lingering in his heart was also opened under Xiao Chen's words.
It turned out that his son had not blamed himself for a long time, but he hadn't seen him for more than ten years, and his son had become an existence comparable to Emperor Wu.
"You get up, hurry up, I don't blame you, I, Xiao Xiong, have never blamed you, I only hate myself for being powerless. I'm not surprised that you have where you are today, but I was so weak that I couldn't shelter you. ”
Xiao Xiong hurriedly helped Xiao Chen up and didn't let him kneel on the ground, he couldn't stand it.
Xiao Chen got up and said, "No, just let the child protect his father and protect the Xiao family." I, Xiao Chen, swear that as long as I am there one day, no one will be able to hurt the Xiao family. ”
Under the lights, the father and son talked for a long time, and before they knew it, the sky was slowly brightening.
"The Xiao family has been in exile since then, and there is nothing to inherit, only this ring, which has been passed down from generation to generation, and is also the symbol of the patriarch, I will pass it on to you today. ”
Xiao Xiong took off an ancient cyan ring in his hand and handed it to Xiao Chen, not allowing him to refuse.
Xiao Chen sensed it, and immediately sensed the ancient aura that permeated the ring, this ring was indeed a genuine ancient thing.
But on the ring, he didn't perceive the breath of energy, and it seemed to be sealed by some kind of power, hiding his true side.
"Chen'er, now that the ring has been passed to you, you are the patriarch of my Xiao family. Xiao family rules, you probably know, I won't say much, just one word of caution for you. ”
Xiao Chen nodded: "Well, father, you say, the child listens." ”
Xiao Xiong said: "Whether you follow the right path or the evil path, I will not blame you, but remember not to become the second Qingdi, Qingdi Xiao Teng He is a sinner of my Xiao family, which has been passed down from generation to generation." ”
Xiao Chen's heart froze, how could there be such a sentence handed down, Emperor Qing helped Longmen lay down a big country and create a supreme reputation.
Even if the Dragon Gate is destroyed in his hands, it will not be a sinner, after all, no matter what the Qing Emperor says, he is the Xiao family's own person.
Why did the ancestors pass down this sentence from generation to generation, and in such a serious manner, admonishing future generations.
"Father, why is this, the Dragon Gate has fallen, and the Qing Emperor is responsible, but it is not what he wants, why should the ancestors warn future generations like this?"
Xiao Chen put the ring away, looked at Xiao Xiong and said his question, the word sinner is too heavy. That's not all, I have to be warned from generation to generation, did the Qing Emperor really do anything heinous?
Xiao Xiong said solemnly: "There are some things that only the patriarch can know, and if you bring this green dragon ring today, you are qualified to know." This is the secret of my Xiao family, remember not to pass it on, after Xiao Teng became the emperor, he has actually gone mad and escaped into the devil's way, and his heart has changed greatly. ”
"In order to break through the shackles of Emperor Wu, he can be said to be unscrupulous, and countless people have died in his hands. Those foreign masters aside, his former friends, his beloved lovers, and his master who taught him all died under his sword. ”
Xiao Chen was shocked when he heard this: "Impossible, I have seen Longmen Zhanzun, when it comes to the Qingdi, these people are all admired, and they are even more loyal to Longmen, and they will not rest until death." ”
