Chapter 21 You dare touch my people?
Seeing that Xiao Chen had recognized him, the old man stopped pretending and said with a wicked grin, "Look at what you're saying, you're not dead either, are you?"
"Ancestor, you...you know each other?" Xiao Yan was shocked.
"Alright, this isn't the place to talk, let's find somewhere else."
"Come on, it's been so long, let's catch up."
Xiao Chen and his group went directly to a restaurant and booked a private room.
"More than a thousand years have passed since our last parting."
"I really didn't expect that Brother Xiao and Brother Dilong would still look so youthful and energetic, showing no signs of aging at all."
"Sigh, it feels like a lifetime ago."
The old man's words shocked Xiao Yan.
He knew that his ancestor had lived a long life.
I never expected that this seemingly unremarkable old man in front of me had lived for so long.
"Senior, since you are acquainted with my ancestor, you must be an important person."
"Then how come you were beaten so badly that your face was bruised and swollen?" Xiao Yan asked, puzzled.
"Xiao Yan, you are unaware of this."
"This is the Tang family patriarch, the only one in all the universes to possess the inheritance of the Eye of Truth."
"His name is Tang Chengxuan."
"He's very strong, but he likes to get beaten up."
Do you like getting beaten up?
What does this mean?
real or fake?
What is the Eye of Truth?
"They actually dared to make fun of me in front of the younger generation."
"However, what your ancestor said is not wrong. Getting beaten up can neutralize the poison of delusion in my body. Come to think of it, I've seen too many things I shouldn't have."
Tang Chengxuan gave a helpless, bitter smile.
Xiao Yan looked bewildered. What exactly was this "Poison of Breaking Illusion"?
"By the way, why did you come all the way to this Dou Qi Continent?"
"With your standards, is there anything in this place that could possibly attract your treasures?"
Xiao Chen narrowed his eyes slightly.
Tang Chengxuan sighed and said, "About half a year ago, I suddenly had a premonition and activated my Eye of Truth to look this way."
"A dazzling and brilliant light has been discovered here, and the celestial secrets are in chaos, which suggests that something big is about to happen."
"Later, I discovered that an old friend had appeared on this Dou Qi Continent, but I couldn't see his face clearly."
"You should know that I live a secluded life and don't have many old friends. The only old friend I can't see even with my Eyes of Truth is you."
"When I first saw you, I couldn't see through you. My Eyes of Insight were as blind as they are in front of you."
"So I came."
"I never expected it to really be you!"
"and……"
"Even my all-seeing eye cannot see through this descendant beside you!"
"Does your Xiao family... only produce prodigies?"
Tang Chengxuan appeared calm on the surface, but he was genuinely taken aback when he saw Xiao Yan.
This was because the little guy named Xiao Yan was also shrouded in a layer of mist, which his Eyes of Truth could not see through at all.
All we know is that this child has great fortune and his future achievements are limitless.
Xiao Yan's heart stirred at this moment.
Could it be because I'm from another time?
"The people of my Xiao family are certainly not ordinary."
"You came here just to see me?"
"Old Tang, you've come all this way, it can't be just for catching up, right?" Xiao Chen asked with a smile.
"You're overthinking it. We're really just catching up."
"Perhaps it's because I'm getting old and want to see old friends."
Tang Chengxuan said with a smile.
"Okay, then let's just catch up today and not talk about anything else."
"good!"
After the food and wine were served, Xiao Chen and Tang Chengxuan began to toast each other and reminisce about the past.
The two of them didn't mention a single word about what they had discussed earlier.
Xiao Yan sat to the side, pouring wine for the two of them from time to time.
He was also extremely excited at this moment.
Following the patriarch has truly broadened my horizons!
It's unbelievable that we can even meet people from outside the Dou Qi Continent.
Two hours later, after a hearty meal and drinks, Tang Chengxuan patted his stomach and said with a smile, "Brother Xiao, that was great! It's been a long time since I've had such a good time."
"It wasn't a waste of my long journey."
"However, all good things must come to an end, and it's time for me to leave."
Xiao Chen looked at Tang Chengxuan and asked with a smile, "Leaving now?"
"Well, it's time to go."
"Okay, until we meet again."
Xiao Chen nodded.
Tang Chengxuan didn't say anything more and got up to leave.
After a long while, Xiao Chen glanced at Little Gold on his shoulder, and seeing the latter nod, he turned to Xiao Yan and asked, "Xiao Yan, what do you think of Tang Chengxuan?"
Upon hearing Xiao Chen's question, Xiao Yan pondered for a moment, then said earnestly, "Ancestor, I don't understand this person, and I don't know him very well. We only had a brief encounter just now, and we didn't say much..."
"But since he is an old friend of the patriarch, he must be a good person."
Xiao Chen smiled and glanced at Xiao Yan.
"Those who possess the Eye of Truth are not so simple."
"You don't really think he's just here to catch up, do you?"
"He...is not a villain, but he's certainly not a purely good person either!"
Xiao Yan was shocked by Xiao Chen's three sentences.
The two had been chatting happily, and Xiao Yan genuinely believed they were longtime friends.
But now, the patriarch has actually made such an evaluation of that old man?
Could it be that Tang Chengxuan really has ulterior motives?
Seeing Xiao Yan's brows furrowing deeper and deeper, Xiao Chen suddenly burst into laughter and said, "Don't worry, Tang Chengxuan may be a bit cunning, but he won't do anything to you or me."
"Why are you so sure, Ancestor?" Xiao Yan asked, puzzled.
"Because he doesn't dare!"
At this time, Tang Chengxuan had already arrived in the southeastern region of the Dou Qi Continent.
At the summit of a peak.
"Your subordinate greets Your Majesty!"
Looking at the man and woman in front of him, Tang Chengxuan nodded calmly.
With a thought, he reverted to his original appearance.
He looks to be in his early thirties.
"From today onwards, you must closely monitor the every move of a young man named Xiao Yan in the Jia Ma Empire in the Northwest region."
"This child is extraordinary."
"The more we know about him, the better it is for us. Remember that?"
"Yes, my lord."
"As for Xiao Chen..."
Tang Chengxuan frowned slightly, unsure of what to do for a moment.
His purpose in coming to the Dou Qi Continent this time was actually to see Xiao Chen up close again.
However, just like when he met Xiao Chen back then, his Eyes of Truth still couldn't see through Xiao Chen.
Unexpectedly, his more than a thousand years of hard work in cultivation was still useless in front of Xiao Chen.
"Xiao Yan possesses great fortune; he will surely have a place on the Heavenly Ranking of the Great Thousand World in the future."
"But who exactly is this Xiao Chen?"
"How should I handle my relationship with him going forward?"
Tang Chengxuan is struggling with this question.
The man and woman exchanged a glance, both looking puzzled.
What is the Lord thinking?
Xiao Chen?
Who is Xiao Chen?
Could it be Xiao Yan's father?
"My lord, this Xiao Chen..."
Before the woman could finish speaking, a powerful aura suddenly descended from the sky, enveloping the three of them.
"You dare touch my people?"
That terrifying pressure was like the end of the world!
Tang Chengxuan's expression changed drastically. He tried to use all his strength to resist, but found that he couldn't resist at all!
boom!
boom!
boom!
The three were unable to withstand the attack and collapsed to their knees.
"The Eye of Delusion?"
"Are you from the Tang family?"
A pleasant voice rang out.
The voice was beautiful, yet it carried a chilling coldness.
Tang Chengxuan was terrified.
He tried to look up, but couldn't see anyone at all.
"Yes, yes, I am Tang Chengxuan, the head of the Tang family." Tang Chengxuan said nervously.
"Who is Tang Guichen to you?" the woman asked coldly.
"It's...it's my grandfather."
"Hmph, for the sake of that brat Tang Guichen, I'll spare your life today."
"Remember this, take your people and get far away from here."
I don't care what your purpose is.
"Don't set your sights on Xiao Chen."
"Otherwise, the Tang family would no longer exist in this world."
"Did you understand?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Chengxuan broke out in a cold sweat.
He didn't actually know Xiao Chen's background either.
All I know is that this kid is very mysterious.
He never imagined that Xiao Chen would have such a powerful expert by his side.
What exactly is the relationship between these two?
My people?
Could this be Xiao Chen's woman?
