Mind Cultivation Record

Chapter 1,108: Lingering on Life

This is the end of a farce.

The troublemakers dispersed, and the spectators also dispersed.

As these people dispersed, a news spread in Tiandu City: Xiao Nantian, the eldest son of Xiao, returned to Tiandu after a hundred years of absence!

At this time, Xiao Mian had already entered the Xiao family under the guidance of Xiao Bailu.

The lobby of the Xiao family is called Lanling Hall!

It was in Lanling Hall that Xiao Mian met the current head of the Xiao family.

Looking at the young woman in the hall who was just a high-level Jindan cultivator, Xiao Mian frowned unconsciously, but he soon relaxed.

It seems that the Xiao family's situation is worse than he imagined!

A high-level Jindan cultivator can take the position of the head of the Xiao family. Could it be that the dangerous wall of the Xiao family has collapsed?

"Is it you, calling yourself Xiao Nantian?" The young woman in the hall, plainly dressed and with a haggard face, looked at Xiao Mian with a confused expression, but it could be seen from her hands tightly holding the chair that she knew Xiao Nantian. With a sigh, Xiao Mian saluted the young woman in the hall: "Sister-in-law! Please stop playing this game with your nephew!"

"You! What did you call me?"

"Hmph! Since the Xiao family doesn't recognize me as a returning wanderer, I'll just leave!"

After saying this, Xiao Mian turned around and left without stopping.

To be honest, seeing the current situation of the Xiao family, Xiao Mian really had the urge to be a gentleman - a gentleman would not stand under a dangerous wall!

From Xiao Nantian's information, Xiao Mianqing knew that a hundred years ago, Xiao Nantian claimed to be traveling around the world, but in fact he broke out for some reason.

Speaking of which, he is somewhat similar to Bai Qiye back then.

How could such a vengeful person beg for mercy?

Besides, now I'm afraid Xiao Mian wants to leave, but the Xiao family won't agree!

Sure enough, when Xiao Mian turned around, the young woman who was sitting in the hall suddenly turned around and stood in front of Xiao Mian.

"You can't go anywhere until you figure out your identity!"

"A hundred years ago I was able to break through the door. Let's see who can stop me a hundred years from now!"

"You! You..." Staring into Xiao Mian's eyes, the young woman was angry and anxious. But at this moment, Xiao Bailu took two steps and came to the young woman and whispered: "Aunt! Maybe he really is Where is my elder brother? Otherwise, how could I know you?"

"Hmph! Even if you are really your eldest brother, you can't contradict me like this!"

"That's it! That's it! My aunt is also the head of the Xiao family after all. Big...brother, it's really inappropriate for you to talk to your aunt like this!" As he spoke, Xiao Bailu winked at Xiao Mian. Seeing the face that was the same as Xiao Chuqing's, Xiao Mian was slightly absent-minded, but he still whispered to the young woman: "Sister-in-law! Please forgive Nan Tian for being rude!"

"..., that's all!"

"But there is something unclear about Nan Tian: How did my sister-in-law become the head of the Xiao family?"

"You! Humph! Do you think I, my aunt, like to be the head of the Xiao family? Our Xiao family is not prosperous to begin with. When it comes to my generation, there are only one son and one daughter for your father and me. Your father is not living up to expectations. , it was not possible to form the elixir for a long time, and he died at the end of his life. The white-haired man sent the black-haired man to live in bed. How about coming out to hold up the table?"

Your father is dissatisfied!

In private, Xiao Mian cursed endlessly, but could not say anything.

At this moment, the young woman's expression changed.

"Your grandpa already knows that you are back, and he wants you to go to him! Bai Lu, take your eldest brother to see your grandpa!"

"yes!"

Nodding, Xiao Bailu blinked at Xiao Mian.

After Xiao Mian followed Xiao Bailu out of Lanling Hall, the young woman - Xiao Qingxia, the current head of the Xiao family, looked uncertain.

Let’s talk about Xiao Mian later, following Xiao Bailu, following suit.

Seemingly with a low eyebrow, Xiao Mian quickly looked around the Xiao family's inner courtyard, and came to only one conclusion - the Xiao family is in deep trouble!

Walking in the inner courtyard of the Xiao family, I didn't see a single servant or servant.

This is unimaginable for a family of practitioners.

Obviously, given the current situation of the Xiao family, it is almost a miracle that they have not been removed from Tiandu City...

Not long after, Xiao Mian was led to an attic by Xiao Bailu.

"Big...brother! How about...you go in by yourself?"

"What? Are you afraid of him?"

The "he" Xiao Mian calls is the ancestor of the Xiao family!

Xiao Bailu's face turned pale when she heard this, but she remained silent.

Shaking his head, Xiao Mian took out a piece of stuff and threw it to Xiao Bailu.

After Xiao Bailu caught it, her expression was stunned, and then she was surprised and happy.

Just because what Xiao Mian gave her was exactly that piece - Liuru Feishuang!

"Although it's not the first time we've met, today is an official meeting after all, and the eldest brother will always give you a greeting gift! Find a chance in the future, and eldest brother will help you refine the Feishuang Sword. Bai Lu and Feishuang swords will be combined. You Then you don’t have to be afraid of those soft-footed shrimps anymore!”

"Really...really gave it to me? This is worth a lot of fairy crystals!"

"Go!"

"Thank you, brother!"

Holding the piece of Liuru Feishuang tightly, Xiao Bailu retreated happily.

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Mian walked into the attic with his head held high.

The attic was empty except for a huge bed.

The bed was covered with layers of curtains, making it difficult for people to see what was going on inside.

When he arrived in front of the big bed, Xiao Mian just stood there, neither saluting nor speaking.

For a long time, there was silence in the attic.

"Ahem! Ahem...you unfilial son! Are you planning to kill me?"

"Aren't you still alive?"

"you!"

"Say something quickly! If nothing happens, I'll leave first!"

"You traitor! Did you come here specifically to make me angry?" He shouted suddenly, and the curtains on the big bed flew up, revealing the body sunk deep in the bed. Even though Xiao Mian was mentally prepared, he still couldn't help but shudder when he saw the body.

Really – that’s not what a person should look like at all!

What was lying on the bed at this time was more like a pile of rotten meat than a person!

The vaguely visible human form was not only completely covered with skin, but also ulcerated all over. Blood and pus were mixed together, which was disgusting.

Nearly half of the old facial features have become rotten and necrotic, and there are even white bones on the forehead...

Just such a body, if left outside, might be regarded as a rotten corpse, but now, it appeared alive in front of Xiao Mian.

What was even more difficult for Xiao Mian to accept was that this was still a Nascent Soul Ancestor!

Xiao Mian was dumbfounded, and the Yuan Ying ancestor was also silent.

I don’t know how long it took, but a sigh echoed through the attic.

"Nan Tian! You are back after all! Unfortunately, it's a little late..."

"..."

"Nan Tian! No matter what, you are the eldest son of my Xiao family after all!"

"..."

"Nantian! Grandpa did something wrong in the past. After grandpa becomes old, I only hope that you can reorganize the Xiao family. Even if it is not possible, you must protect them!"

"..."

Nonchalantly, the ancestor of the Xiao family called Xiao Mian "Nantian" one after another.

Xiao Mian remained silent, silent...

"Nan Tian! Please step back first! Remember: From now on, you must come to me when you are three provinces a day. If I don't see you for a day, I will miss you! Remember this!"

"……,yes!"

At the end, Xiao Mian walked out of the attic with an expressionless face.

The ancestor of the Xiao family was sitting on the big bed, his cloudy and dull eyes were filled with light.

By the time Xiao Mian returned to the lobby, Xiao Qingxia had already arranged Xiao Mian's residence - actually there was no need to arrange it, there were only four people in the entire Xiao family.

The ancestor of the Xiao family, the head of the Xiao family, plus Xiao Bailu and Xiao Nanming.

Now including Xiao Mian, there are only five people...

When Xiao Mian arrived at the residence arranged for him by Xiao Qingxia, Xiao Mian started practicing without saying a word.

That night, Xiao Mian went to the attic again by familiar means.

The ancestor of the Xiao family babbled again and let Xiao Mian go.

After that, for three days in a row, Xiao Mian kept practicing diligently, doing three exercises a day and not doing anything once.

On the evening of the third day, the ancestor of the Xiao family delivered a small porcelain vase to Xiao Mian.

"Nantian! My dear grandson! Take this bottle of magic medicine!"

"..."

Xiao Mian took the small porcelain bottle, uncorked it, and drank it in one gulp.

The porcelain bottle contained a light yellow viscous liquid, but Xiao Mian ignored it and drank it.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Mian trembled all over as soon as the liquid entered his mouth.

At the same time, the ancestor of the Xiao family on the bed looked stern, and a green Nascent Soul faintly appeared on his forehead...

It wasn't until he saw Xiao Mian drinking all the liquid in the porcelain bottle that the ancestor of the Xiao family breathed a sigh of relief, and the green Nascent Soul also quietly dissipated.

"Nantian! You are really grandpa's good grandson! From now on, you will support the entire Xiao family. Nan Ming and Bai Lu will also be taken care of by you..."

"……,yes!"

"Grandpa is tired! Please step back!"

"yes!"

After bowing, Xiao Mian turned around and walked out of the attic.

The moment the attic door was closed, Xiao Mian's eyes lit up.

Within a moment, Xiao Mian returned to the place where he stayed. According to his previous practice, Xiao Mian went straight into the quiet room, sat cross-legged, worked on his exercises, and practiced diligently.

Suddenly, a figure passed by, with bright eyes like water, observing Xiao Mian.

After a long time, the figure disappeared.

At the same time, Xiao Mian's body trembled and he appeared in the immortal stone in the form of a divine soul.

Also appearing in the Immortal Stone is a ghost head dressed in black robes.

"Old ghost! You are so unkind! The boy was almost killed by the old ghost's tricks! He almost became Xiao Nantian's substitute!"

As soon as they met, Xiao Mian complained about Guitou.

But it turned out that a few days ago, Xiao Mian actually acted like a walking zombie under the hint of the ancestor of the Xiao family!

Looking back now, I still feel scared!

It wasn't until the ancestor of the Xiao family took out the small porcelain bottle today, Xiao Mian smelled the smell of the mysterious liquid, and the immortal stone in his body generated its own induction, that Xiao Mian was awakened.

As for the mysterious liquid, it was naturally sent into the immortal stone by Xiao Mian.

Seeing the golden mysterious liquid floating in the fairy stone, Xiao Mian felt that it seemed familiar, but he really didn't recognize it.

But one thing is certain: this thing is definitely no small matter!

Otherwise, Immortal Stone would not take the initiative to warn you!

If Xiao Mian really drank this mysterious liquid in a daze, he would probably think of himself as Xiao Nantian for the rest of his life, working hard for the Xiao family!

Unexpectedly, the trump card that the ancestor of the Xiao family used to suppress Xiao Mian turned into a life-saving talisman to awaken Xiao Mian. Things are unpredictable, so what can be done?

"No need to look! This is—corpse oil!"

"Corpse...corpse oil!?"

"Corpse oil can confuse the mind and the mind. Obviously, the old ghost of the Xiao family is proficient in the method of bewitching the gods and the soul, and intends to cultivate you to become the pillar of his Xiao family!"

"Hmph!" Xiao Mian snorted coldly and said, "It seems that the problem still lies in Xiao Nantian's identity. That old ghost must have gained some insight..."

Let me ask, if the ancestor of the Xiao family knew that Xiao Mian was the real Xiao Nantian, why bother?

Obviously, there was a mistake somewhere, which convinced the ancestor of the Xiao family that the Xiao Nantian who came to the door now was not the Xiao Nantian who broke out a hundred years ago!

If this is the case, no matter how the ancestor of the Xiao family plans to deal with Xiao Mian, it is not too much - who asked Xiao Mian to pretend to be his grandson first?

"The old man said just now: Is this golden mysterious liquid corpse oil?" Looking at the golden liquid, Xiao Mian's heart suddenly moved, and then under his control, a clear and transparent glass appeared in the immortal stone. bottle, and brought it to Gui Tou, Xiao Mian asked curiously: "Dare I ask Gui Lao: What is the thing in this bottle?"

The man in black robe was still a little indifferent at first, but after he opened the cap of the glass bottle, his expression suddenly changed - so much so that his entire blurred face exploded...
