After the general tone of the matter is set, all that's left are just scraps.

After Xiao Lin said these words, Xiao Yan's mood softened significantly, and the system prompts sounded in his ears again.

[Congratulations to the host for completing the task and receiving a random draw. Do you want to open it now? 】

"I won't smoke it for now, save it for now."

Xiao Lin responded to the system in his mind, and then continued to turn to Xiao Yan.

In fact, he was also responsible for the situation developing to this point. When he first avoided Xiao Yan, he never thought that Xiao Yan would one day be in such a situation.

This can be regarded as self-inflicted consequences, but at least it has a good ending.

Moreover, he has successfully turned his back on business. How he adjusts Xiao Yan's mentality now depends entirely on what he does.

This is not difficult for him.

Because when he went down the mountain, he had already thought about how to deal with it. Although he took a wrong turn because of Xiao Yan's question, he was still able to change the topic back.

He looked at Xiao Yan and said in a pretentious manner.

"Actually, you don't have to be so nervous about these things. You are a very smart child, so you should have guessed it a long time ago. I discovered that there was something abnormal in your soul when you were born.

In fact, in this world, most people can't find anything strange about you. When you were just born, Xun'er's father came to see you. He was the Nine-Star Fighting Saint, but even he only felt that your soul

He was born relatively strong and didn't notice anything wrong with him.

But do you know how I found out?"

"have no idea."

After the most critical matter was resolved, Xiao Yan also began to care about other issues.

And what Xiao Lin said was actually exactly what he wanted to ask.

Now that Xiao Lin is willing to say it himself, there is no need for him to ask again.

"Because it's so familiar.

When you were born, in the eyes of outsiders you were just a bit more talented, but in my eyes, the scene was no different from when I was born.

I could tell at a glance that something was wrong with you, but I didn't expose it at the time. Instead, I observed you for several years.

My original observation of you has ended, and I originally planned to tell you these things when you grow older, but unexpectedly, by some mistake, you discovered it yourself first."

What Xiao Lin said was compiled based on what Xiao Yan had thought about before, and through the system's feedback, he also knew that Xiao Yan already believed what he said.

"But since grandpa is a time traveler, why did so many changes happen later?"

Xiao Yan also began to communicate with Xiao Lin and raised his own questions.

"It's a long story. When I was young, the Xiao family lived in seclusion in Wutan City.

At that time, I just felt that my family was very weak, so I practiced hard and pulled my family out of Wutan City.

Regarding this matter, my father, your great-grandfather, did not stop anything. At that time, I had reached the level of Dou Ling, and I was considered a strong man in the Jiama Empire.

And the most important thing is that I am still young and I feel that I can make the family prosperous.

But just after I took my family to the Holy City of Gama, an accident happened not long after.

Your great-grandfather passed away suddenly.

In fact, this is not unusual. People are born, old, sick and die all the time. What really surprised and frightened me was the letter your great-grandfather left for me before he died.

He wrote in detail about the origin of the Xiao family or the Xiao clan in that letter. At the same time, he also told me all the secret channels that the Xiao family had hidden for so many years.

But the more I knew, the more scared I became.

The Xiao family is far from being as simple as it seems on the surface. It has been so many years since the Xiao family has been passed down to this day. How could it be possible that the Xiao family has always been just a small family?

Have you also thought about this problem?"

Xiao Yan nodded and said: "I have always been curious about this matter. Grandpa, when you faked your death, your family left the Holy City of Gama. I can understand it. But later, when grandpa made a breakthrough in cultivation but never returned, I feel very strange.

Something’s wrong.”

"The reason why I do this is because the family has to do this."

Xiao Lin asked with a smile: "You also have some guesses in your mind. Regarding the enemies and friends the family faces, did you already think about it when I asked you to get close to Xun'er?"

"After all, grandpa said that there are enemies in the Xiao family. I have been walking around the valley for so many days, and I have actually connected many things together."

Xiao Yan did not hide his thoughts at all, because he knew that speaking more at this time would be very beneficial to him.

"It's just that I don't necessarily need to know these things.

There must be some reasons why grandpa did this. Since it is a family secret, it is best for me not to ask.

Just like what happened with Xun'er, grandpa asked me to get close to her, so I will get close to her, no other reason is needed."

"Letting you get close to Xun'er is actually not just using you for anything.

You have to know that Xun'er's father is the person who stands at the top of the entire continent. Of course he has a purpose in sending his child to our house. And the most essential purpose of letting you get close to Xun'er is to be with Xun'er.

My son’s father thought the same thing.”

Since it's a heart-to-heart conversation, always tell something true.

Now that the words have reached this point, Xiao Lin naturally won't hide anything anymore.

"This involves the family's biggest secret, and speaking of it, it's still an old story.

Xun'er's main purpose of coming to Xiao's house is actually for a piece of jade."

"A piece of jade?"

Xiao Yan was so smart, he immediately knew that this piece of jade must not be a simple jade.

Not to mention that Xun'er's family will definitely be extremely powerful than the Xiao family. Even the Xiao family now has a lot of money, and even if they want a piece of jade, they still don't have it.

"Of course this piece of jade is not that simple. It involves the last Dou Emperor on Dou Qi Continent, Tuoshe Ancient Emperor.

The reason why I asked you to get close to Xun'er is actually for the jade from the ancient tribe.

At the very least, the real Xiao family is still in darkness.

The Dou Qi Continent is so big, it is impossible for our enemies or friends to monitor us all the time, and this gives us the opportunity to change things in secret.

Do you know why you were chosen?"

"Because I'm a time traveler like grandpa?"

"Yes or no, you and I have both been reborn. Of course I will have higher hopes for you, but the most important thing is that you are the most suitable candidate, because you, like Emperor Tuoshe, are both fire fighters.

attribute."
