Night slowly fell over the entire Wolong Continent again, Tianwu City gradually returned to calm, and the hustle and bustle of the day gradually disappeared here.

In Xiao Ran's room, Xiao Ran was standing in the center of the room dressed in white, and on Xiao Ran's shoulder, the colorful black phoenix, which had not been seen for a long time, was hanging its head on Xiao Ran's shoulder, rubbing against it constantly.

"Brother Xiao Ran, I want to go too!" Colorful Xuanhuang's voice echoed in Xiao Ran's mind, making Xiao Ran couldn't help but frown.

"I'm going to do some business tonight, so you should just stay here obediently. I'll play with you when I get back, how about that?" Xiao Ran comforted and stroked Xiaohuang's head.

"No, I haven't been with you for a long time, can you bear it?" Xiao Huang's tone seemed to be about to cry, especially the girl's voice, which made Xiao Ran unable to resist.

Looking at the little guy on his shoulder, Xiao Ran felt a little embarrassed for a moment. Xiao Ran himself didn't know what dangers there were in getting the sword tonight, so it was an unwise decision for Xiao Ran to take Xiao Huang with him, but he had to go.

, Xiao Ran couldn't bear to leave her behind. After all, Xiao Ran quite liked this little Huang.

After thinking about it, Xiao Ran sighed slightly: "Okay, I can take you there, but you must obey me, otherwise I will ignore you in the future!"

When the little guy heard this, how could he not nod? He immediately nodded and agreed, which made Xiao Ran want to laugh.

Dong dong dong...

A knock on the door sounded at this moment, and a smile suddenly appeared on Xiao Ran's face. Without thinking, Xiao Ran knew who was coming.

Opening the door, he saw Tian Lao standing outside the door wearing coarse linen clothes. Xiao Ran nodded slightly and said directly: "Tian Lao, let's go!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Ran had already walked out of the courtyard.

At this time, because the sky had darkened, except for a few people on patrol, everyone in the Xiao family had already gone to bed.

After Xiao Ran led Tianlao through a corridor, he suddenly turned and walked towards the ancestral hall behind the Xiao family.

The Xiao family ancestral hall can be said to be the forbidden area of ​​the Xiao family. No one is allowed to approach it, except with the permission of the clan leader. Xiao Ran had already secured his grandfather this afternoon and promised him that he could approach the ancestral hall.

After spending the whole afternoon this afternoon, coupled with various rumors from his past life, Xiao Ran had basically determined that the location where the Xuan Bing Sword was hiding was exactly where the Xiao family's ancestral hall was.

The City Lord's Mansion was not actually built by the Xiao family. When the Xiao family served as the City Lord, the City Lord's Mansion already existed, and the Xiao family moved in directly.

That ancestral hall has existed for a long time. Today, Xiao Ran used his mental power to search the entire Xiao family. Only this ancestral hall was a little weird, so Xiao Ran locked his sights on the ancestral hall.

The two of them quickly bypassed the city lord's palace and arrived at the location of the ancestral hall. The four ink-color regular script characters of Xiao's ancestral hall were inlaid with gold and placed on the plaque.

In the Xiao Ancestral Hall, the Xiao family only holds one ancestor worship meeting every year. At this ancestor worship meeting, all the Xiao clan members must come to the ancestral hall to worship their ancestors. Although Xiao Ran has come many times, he has only done so before.

Just leave, not observing as carefully as now.

After looking at the plaque, Xiao Ran took the lead and walked towards the ancestral hall.

The door of the ancestral hall is usually closed. When Xiao Ran came to the door, he directly reached out and pushed the door open and stepped in.

The inside of the ancestral hall is a little dark, with dozens of oil lamps flickering inside, making the inside look a little dark.

But for cultivators, these are nothing. After Tianlao came in, he closed the door directly. At that moment, the whole area suddenly became quiet, and there was no more sound.

The location in the ancestral hall is not very big, only more than 100 square meters. Directly in front of Xiao Ran, rows of spiritual tablets are placed on it. Under those spiritual tablets, countless incense is burning, and on both sides, there are some

Seats and some curtains, etc.

After Tianlao walked in, he followed Xiao Ran without saying a word. Even the colorful black phoenix on Xiao Ran's shoulders seemed quiet. Obviously, she also knew that now was not the time to move.

Xiao Ran's eyes looked from the lower spiritual tablets one by one, and finally focused on the top position of the spiritual tablets, where a single spiritual tablet was standing there.

"The spiritual position of ancestor Xiao Yuan!" A row of small characters are clearly written on it. Xiao Yuan, the first ancestor known to the Xiao family, is also the person with the highest cultivation level of the Xiao family so far. His cultivation level has reached the realm of sword god. What happened later is unknown.

The reason why he disappeared is that since then, the Xiao family began to decline, until now it has become a small family in a fifth-level town.

After the memory of Xiao Yuan flashed through his mind, Xiao Ran suddenly walked towards the front of the memorial tablet, then picked up a bunch of incense and lit it, bowed solemnly a few times and murmured: "Your descendants have something to do today that has alarmed everyone.

I'm really sorry, and I hope you can forgive me!" After saying this, he bowed a few more times.

Tian Lao just stood aside calmly and did not say anything. After Xiao Ran paid his last respects, he closed his eyes directly.

The moment Xiao Ran closed his eyes, the body of Tianlao behind him trembled for no reason, and a huge special force emerged from Xiao Ran's body again, which was Xiao Ran's mental power.

Under Xiao Ran's control, Xiao Ran's mental power began to search the entire Xiao Ancestral Hall inch by inch, not even a corner was spared.

After a while, Xiao Ran's brows suddenly frowned: "Did I guess wrong?" Xiao Ran murmured. After searching them all, he found nothing.

Suddenly, Xiao Ran's eyes suddenly focused on the wall next to the enshrined token. Although that wall looked no different from other walls, when Xiao Ran's mental power searched there just now, it was inexplicable.

It was swallowed up by a force, yes, it was swallowed up, and this made Xiao Ran pay attention to this position.

Now that the target was determined, Xiao Ran immediately changed direction and walked towards that location. Tian Lao behind him saw Xiao Ran walking towards a wall, his eyes suddenly became clear, and he followed closely.

After arriving directly in front of the wall, Xiao Ran stopped, with a solemn expression on his face. He stood closer, and Xiao Ran observed with his mental power again, but there was no change.

Dong dong dong...

A strange sound suddenly rang out, but it was the sound made by Xiao Ran reaching out and knocking on the wall.

The sound fell, but the entire wall still didn't react at all.

"That's weird!" Xiao Ran frowned and leaned his hand against the wall involuntarily.

Click...

The moment Xiao Ran leaned his hand against the wall, a dull sound suddenly sounded from the right side of Xiao Ran and others. Xiao Ran and others immediately looked over there, only to see that behind the ancestral hall token, there was no sound.

It cracked open without a breath, and a passageway suddenly appeared in front of the two of them.
