Undead Mentor Aspects

Chapter 291 Combat Readiness

The Xiao family has suffered heavy losses recently, which is something everyone knows.The old head of the Xiao family, Xiao Zhanlong, the tiger of the empire, unexpectedly came back from the dead and turned the tide of the battle in one fell swoop. Only then did everyone realize that everything was due to that wily guy.The ensuing battle was even more thrilling. It is said that five of the sanctuary powerhouses who were usually like gods fell in the battle.

These are news that cannot be concealed, and the official will naturally not hide them. Instead, they will publicize them openly, and they will kill the demon clone and save the mainland from fire and water.The official reputation of the empire has never been so strong, and even foreign countries are shocked by the excitement of the Huanglong people.

Speaking of fighting demons is like Xiao Tianming mentioning fighting the island nation in his previous life. It is the common resistance of the whole people, which cannot be erased by time, nor by a few political lies.The heroes who defeated the demons will be remembered by the world. In less than three days, the troubadours compiled the heroes who participated in the battle into a large-scale long poem that could be performed for three days and three nights, and publicized it.

The strange thing is that it seems to be a kind of tacit understanding, a kind of tradition. No one asked about the details, and no one really tracked down the loss of the country. Killing, no one minds this kind of bloody plot.Authenticity becomes insignificant in the face of such a great victory, and the parties will never leak the news.

As a hero of the empire and a role model for the people, the inside of Xiao's family was clouded, and even his breathing was suppressed...

The old Patriarch's "resurrection" is certainly something to be pleased about, but the loss of the family is an unavoidable problem:

After this battle, the old Patriarch suffered heavy injuries. The demon had just walked out of the portal, and the hell energy carried on his body had not yet been neutralized by the main plane. His strength was at its most tyrannical moment.It was the old Patriarch who stepped forward and dealt a severe blow to Abaddon's arrogance. His early hidden injuries were caused by the flames, and with the addition of new injuries, he fell to the ground with serious injuries.

Afterwards, he used the secret method many times to stimulate his potential, rose up again and again, and with many Sanctuary companions, he severely injured Abaddon's body time and time again, consuming more than half of his proud recovery ability, and his injuries aggravated again.

In the end, at the critical moment, he reluctantly activated the secret method, sealed the family artifact "Flame Excalibur", strangled the last "Doomsday Fire Dragon", and saved everyone from fire and water.The most direct consequence was that the old man's body was completely unable to hold on. After finishing all the aftermath tasks, he fell on the bed and barely woke up on the third day.

Not to mention this battle, the second generation of the Xiao family lost their eldest son Xiao Shang and second son Xiao Shan, leaving only the Xiaoyao Wang Xiaohuo who achieved nothing.In the third generation, only the eldest grandson Xiao Qifeng is left.The little grandson who was entrusted with the hope of spreading branches and leaves was personally sacrificed by the old patriarch, leaving no son and half daughter behind.

The strength of the Xiao family, especially the strength of the direct line, has been greatly discounted both in theory and in fact.Fortunately, in the face of a crisis, under the protection of the royal family, no one dared to do anything to the Xiao family.Xiao Tianming's scheming and ruthless methods, coupled with his formidable strength, completely wiped out some people's ambitions.The Xiao family is safe, at least until the demon retreats.

Three days later in the morning, Xiao Zhanlong, like an ordinary old man, was sitting in the master's study, drinking morning tea, and casually picked up a family document and read it.After a while, the butler will call him to have breakfast.The old man feels little, the tranquility in the morning is his happiest and most relaxing time, and he dislikes being disturbed the most.

At this time, there were footsteps outside the door, and the old man frowned and looked: Who is so unruly?Don’t you know that old people like a quiet environment?

In a few seconds, the unscrupulous visitor walked around the corner, exuding a dark magic robe, walked into the room, pulled the seat and sat down, picked up the delicate teapot and took a sip, looking enjoying.

"I really don't know where you, old guy, hid such a good thing. Why didn't I find it?" Xiao Tianming pointed to the tea in his hand and said, with an unsatisfactory look on his face.

"It's really not the right time for you to come!" The old man's expression was reluctance. Ever since he brought this little ancestor into his home, Xiao's residence has never been quiet for a moment.

"Aren't you worried about your body?" Xiao Tianming became a little interested, saying that he knew his own affairs, why is this old guy acting like a normal person?

The old Patriarch took another sip of tea and said slowly, "So what can we worry about? The past is over, so what's the use of worrying? Isn't this dead?" This answer was surprisingly optimistic.But it made Xiao Tianming, who wanted to see the old Patriarch panic and lose face, bored for a while: the old guy had already reached a calm state of mind, and he couldn't disrupt it with his little tricks.

"Okay, you won!" Xiao Tianming helplessly threw a phantom spar, which recorded all the information about the old guy's body, very detailed.This is the result of his three days of work.

The report was only two or three pages long, but the old Patriarch read it for half an hour: "It seems that my body is in trouble, isn't it?"

"It's very troublesome!" Xiao Tianming nodded and said, "You can't use force anymore. Every time you move, you will lose your short lifespan. There are old diseases and new injuries. If you don't die on the spot, it's you." The vitality is tenacious."

"How long do I have to live?"

"If you don't get angry, don't use force, and take good care of yourself, according to the current level of technology, I'm sure that you can see your grandson succeed the head of the family. Let you see the hope that the Xiao family will not decline in the next hundred years." Xiao Tianming After pondering for a while, he gave a more optimistic answer.

The old man smiled with satisfaction.This result has exceeded his expectations by far too much.Originally, the life that should have ended on the day of the poisoning had hope again.Before he died, he hoped to fulfill his lifelong dream, and the old Patriarch considered himself a happy person.

The Tiger of the Empire, the great warrior Xiao Zhanlong sighed like an ordinary old man in his dying years, pulling Xiao Tianming to gossip and chatter endlessly.It lasted all night.

Afterwards, the Xiao family announced a personnel adjustment: the old patriarch Xiao Zhanlong officially resigned from office and retired to the countryside.The position of Patriarch is succeeded by the only remaining third son, Xiao Huo, and the position of the next prospective Patriarch of the family has also been determined. It is the only son of the boss Xiao Shang, Xiao Qifeng, a young man who dares to confront the devil head-on.Courage is enough to support a Xiao family.

What makes people puzzled is that this personnel adjustment even includes the removal of the list of Xiao Shan's party members. It is extremely detailed, but there is no name of Xiao Tianming, and even the names of his servants can't be found. It seems that Xiao Tianming never However, it never existed with the event.

The real senior management of the empire, the three old men were surprisingly unanimous. On the afternoon when this adjustment was promulgated, they rushed to Xiao's other courtyard together, and grabbed the old owner to ask for details.Could it be that the Xiao family was guilty of jealousy and obliterated the meritorious officials?The old emperor spoke well and poached a corner on the spot, promising: If Xiao Tianming is willing to join the royal family, he will not only bestow a beautiful princess from the collateral line as his wife, but also reward him with titles, positions, land, houses, and gold.It's no worse than rewarding the champion of the Youth Academy Competition every year.

It stands to reason that there are differences between monarchs and ministers. On the three-acre land of the empire, those who offend the emperor must have no good fruit to eat.The two great masters, Song and Wei, both vetoed the old emperor's proposal, exposing their faults again and again.From personal freedom to the promise of the princess's bad reputation, various scandals of the royal family came out one after another from the mouths of the two unscrupulous old guys. Like Chinese cabbage in the vegetable market, it is everywhere.

Xiao Tianming, who had just rushed over, was dumbfounded, and hurriedly stopped the three old men who were about to study the serious issue of corruption in the royal family's private life, and asked a little shyly, "What are you guys doing here?" To the old Patriarch, the old guy looked at the three fighting with excitement at this time, as if he was picking up a piece of popcorn to eat.

"Haven't you been expelled by the Xiao family? Come to me, my granddaughter is much better than the spoiled **** of the royal family. This year is sixteen, and I have fully inherited my good genes, and I will never let you Disappointed." Song Yu was frothing, talking wildly, as if not abandoning the royal princess and choosing his granddaughter who appeared out of nowhere was Xiao Tianming's biggest loss.

"Little guy, don't listen to him! Who doesn't know the reputation of the Song family as a "family of a thousand men"? This old guy's direct granddaughters can't be counted. Who knows what kind of things he will use to prevaricate you? Besides , The Song family is in a mess, everyone knows, you don't want to be cuckolded every day, do you? Come to me, I will give you the position of acting head of the family, you don't have to listen to anyone in the family except what I say, How about they all listen to you?"

Wei Yan also seemed to be in a hurry, spit out a long paragraph rarely, his face flushed red.The conditions offered are even more attractive. The positions and powers of the generational patriarchs of the big families are also very different.Some people are puppets at all, while others hold heavy fists and are majestic.Xiao Tianming's is exactly the best.Wei Yan's promise is absolutely solid, and no one dares to resist.

Xiao Tianming completely gave up on persuading the three old men, and could only pretend to agree, agreeing, and brought the topic down to business.He never expected that a casual promise made him live an unforgettable "star career", which was painful for a long time.

After some bargaining and private communication among the bigwigs, a general cooperation plan was formally formed.The 50 troops requested by Xiao Tianming a few days ago are ready to go, and many families are nervously and orderly entering the stage of war preparation.Even if they don't know their mission and ultimate goal, the belief in their hearts makes these troops fully capable of destroying more than three times the number of veterans, with a neat appearance and extraordinary momentum.

And Xiao Tianming, who is busy with everything, has just finished making everyone's training form and defense distribution map, and Xiao Tianming came to the western part of the empire again, in front of the small land that barely occupies half of the street. The face is full of gratified smiles and longing for the future.

These few days have been a wonderful time.
