Chapter 567 Exchange
"Yes, Not Bad."
Elder Tongxuan nodded in agreement. For ancient families like the Gu Clan, face is extremely important.
After waiting for a few minutes, a figure flashed outside the palace door. A young man in his twenties carrying a heavy ruler stepped in. It was Xiao Yan, whom we hadn't seen for a long time!
When Xiao Yan saw Lin Fan standing there holding Xun'er's little hand, smiling and staring at him, the expression on his face was worse than if he had eaten shit!
"Xiao Yan, a descendant of the Xiao clan, greets all the elders."
Xiao Yan suppressed his hatred for Lin Fan and stepped forward to give a solemn bow!
Actually, he didn't want to come to the ancient clan, but he learned from Elder Yao that his ancestor Xiao Xuan's tomb was here, so he had no choice but to come despite his reluctance!
Because with normal cultivation, the gap between him and Lin Fan will only widen. As the saying goes, fortune favors the bold. Only by entering the Heavenly Tomb and obtaining enough opportunities can he possibly wash away the shame that Lin Fan brought upon him!
"You are a descendant of Xiao Xuan? Do you have any proof?"
Elder Tongxuan, seated at the head of the table, looked Xiao Yan up and down and slowly spoke.
Xiao Yan didn't speak. After his palm brushed over the storage ring, he slowly opened it, revealing an ancient jade piece in everyone's sight.
"This is... the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade!?"
After a brief silence, a low gasp erupted in the hall. All the elders stared at the ancient jade with burning desire, their breathing rapid!
The last Dou Di on the Dou Qi Continent, Tuoshe Ancient Emperor, left behind his legacy: if you gather the eight jade pieces together, you may obtain the secret to breaking through to Dou Di!
Each of the eight major families possesses a fragment, which serves as the best proof of their identities!
"We can give him the spot, but it must be exchanged for ancient jade."
Just then, Elder Tongxuan suddenly heard the voice of a middle-aged man in his mind.
"Yes, patriarch!"
Elder Tongxuan's expression changed slightly, and then he transmitted his voice.
The ancient jade is of great importance, especially since the Soul Clan is eyeing it covetously. Xiao Yan, all alone, has no ability to protect the ancient jade. Gu Yuan's choice to leave the ancient jade with the Ancient Clan is perfectly reasonable, both in terms of public and private matters.
However, as the head of the clan, he naturally couldn't lose his composure, so he had to let Tongxuan play the villain.
"Young friend Xiao Yan is indeed a promising young man. I never thought that the Xiao family, which has been in decline for thousands of years, could produce such a genius as you."
Elder Tongxuan stroked his beard, a gentle smile appearing on his face.
"Senior, you flatter me. I am unworthy of such praise!"
"Now that my identity has been verified, I should be qualified to enter the Heavenly Tomb, right?"
Xiao Yan got straight to the point; he had no time for rambling nonsense.
"Of course, but for your safety, let's leave the ancient jade to the ancient clan for safekeeping for now."
Although Elder Tongxuan's voice was calm, it contained a very subtle but powerful pressure, which made Xiao Yan's expression darken.
"What do you mean by this? The Xiao clan already has a quota to enter, why do we have to exchange it for ancient jade!?"
Xiao Yan slowly clenched his fist; the other party's actions were tantamount to robbery.
"Hmph! Kid, do you really think the Xiao clan of today is the same as the Xiao clan of ancient times? It's already a great favor that our clan has given you a spot. The ancient jade will only become a disaster in your hands. It's the best choice to hand it over to us for safekeeping!"
At this moment, Gu Shan snorted and spoke up. It has to be said that this old guy's strength is not that great, but he is quite good at talking.
“Xiao Yan, he’s right! Actually, you should thank me. If I hadn’t killed Protector Wu at Yunlan Mountain, do you think the Xiao family would have been safe?” “With your current strength, you can’t protect the ancient jade at all. You’ll only attract the attention of the Soul Clan. You might as well hand over this hot potato and you can relax.”
Lin Fan, who was standing next to him, picked up the conversation.
Xiao Yan's eyes narrowed slightly, his expression turning extremely cold!
“Little guy, don’t be impulsive. He’s right. The ancient jade is only useful if you obtain all eight pieces at the same time. Keeping this fragment is indeed a disaster. Let’s give it to the ancient clan.”
At this moment, Yao Lao's voice rang in Xiao Yan's mind.
"for you!"
After a moment of silence, he finally made up his mind and flicked his wrist, throwing the ancient jade towards Elder Tongxuan.
"Don't worry, Xiao Yan. You can take back the ancient jade whenever the time is right."
"The Heavenly Tomb will open in three days. You should stay in the Ancient Realm during this time. I will send someone to inform you when it does."
Xiao Yan naturally understood that the other party was just being polite. Once the ancient jade was handed over, it would be like throwing a meat bun to a dog—it would be impossible to get it back.
But he had no choice; when you're under someone else's roof, you have to bow your head.
"Now that Xiao Yan has taken the last spot, then you..."
After Xiao Yan left the main hall, Elder Tongxuan turned his gaze to Lin Fan.
"It's okay, I'll give my spot to Brother Lin Fan!"
Before Lin Fan could speak, Xun'er chimed in, her nonchalant manner making it seem as if she were recounting something utterly ordinary.
The elders looked at each other helplessly. If Lin Fan had taken someone else's spot, they would have had something to say, but now that Xun'er had voluntarily given up, they had no reason to object.
"You little rascal..."
Lin Fan patted Xun'er's head affectionately and did not refuse. Anyway, he would just hide Xun'er in the Divine Might Space and take her in with him. Moreover, Xiao Yan was also on this trip to the Heavenly Tomb, so he could take the opportunity to make some money. It was a win-win situation!
For the next period of time, Lin Fan mostly cultivated enthusiastically with his harem in the Divine Might Space. Occasionally, he would mischievously drag Xun'er along to Xiao Yan's residence, where the two would shower Xiao Yan with affection, which earned Lin Fan quite a few villain points.
That morning, as the first rays of sunlight shone down, Lin Fan got up and headed to the very center of the Ancient Sacred Mountains. As for Xun'er, he had already taken her into his Divine Might Space.
When he arrived at his destination, people from other tribes had already arrived.
"Brother Lin Fan, those are the Soul Clan members over there. Their leader is named Hun Ya, and he's even stronger than the Ancient Demon... Those are the Stone Clan members over there..."
Xun'er began to introduce the eight ancient races to Lin Fan in the Divine Might Space: the Soul Race, the Ancient Race, the Thunder Race, the Stone Race, the Flame Race, the Xiao Race, the Medicine Race, and the Spirit Race.
The Xiao Clan fell into decline, while the Ling Clan was secretly destroyed by the Hun Clan. Of course, only Lin Fan, a transmigrator, knew about this.
"Now that everyone is here, let's begin!"
Elder Tongxuan scanned the entire scene with his eyes, and then waved his arm. A huge crack thousands of feet high appeared in mid-air. As the crack continued to expand, an extremely ancient and magnificent stone gate was exposed to everyone's view!
"So this is the entrance to the Heavenly Tomb? It's truly extraordinary!"
Lin Fan looked somewhat shocked and murmured to himself.
Just one glance at this massive stone gate gives one an extremely heavy sense of oppression.
