When Yao Xun saw his old friend present, he was about to go over and say hello, but he felt the crowd around him parted slightly, and someone was walking towards him.
Inadvertently, he turned his head and glanced, and saw an old man with a hunchback who had white hair and beard and an appearance that was 30% or 40% similar to himself, walking towards him. Originally, Yao Xun did not intend to talk to Yao Hunchback for the time being, but he did not expect that.
The other party actually came to me, so I had to stop where I was.
Seeing Yao Hunchback walking in the distance, Yao Qing, who was standing next to Yao Xun, frowned slightly. Although she had never seen Yao Hunchback in front of her, she seemed to know his identity and some of his past.
A hint of disgust was revealed subconsciously.
"Xiao Meow, Xiao Feng, it's not fun here, let's go!"
Yao Qing said something to his left and right shoulders, and walked away. The "Xiao Feng" in his mouth was the little beast Niang Feng, and that Xiao Miao was the terrifying magical beast.
This monster didn't have any objections. It seemed that it didn't dare to have any objections at all. It just sat on Yao Qing's shoulder and followed her away.
Yao Tuozi walked over slowly. He was very exhausted after a fierce battle, but at this time, his heart felt heavier than his steps.
"Uncle..."
Yao Tuozi, who walked up to Yao Xun, hesitated for a while, and then with difficulty he called out the title that he had not heard for a long time. The family accident hundreds of years ago caused the two people who were supposed to be close relatives to fall apart.
Position. When we meet again hundreds of years later, things have changed.
Yao Xun frowned slightly and stared at Yao Tuozi. After a moment, he sighed deeply. At the same time, the power of thoughts outside his body swirled out, and his spiritual realm was also released at the same time.
Feeling the change in Yao Xun's aura, Yao Tuozi instinctively became slightly nervous, but when his eyes came into contact with Yao
alert.
Similarly, when a strong man in the God Refining Stage is covered by the opponent's spiritual domain, if he does not react, he will be left to his own devices. However, Yao Tuozi trusted his uncle, so he did not resist and just let himself be killed.
Be calm in the other person's spiritual realm.
Seeing the calmness on Yao Tuozi's face, Yao Xun's face gradually relaxed. At the same time, he raised his hands in the air and moved them dozens of times in succession. After each movement, Yao Tuozi's body would beat involuntarily.
At the same time, his complexion will slightly improve.
In less than a breath, Yao Xun had already retracted his hands, and at the same time his spiritual realm also withdrew his thoughts. Looking at Yao Tuozi at this moment, his face was much better than before. In addition to his breath being still a little weak and his clothes looking a little messy,
It didn't feel like he had just fought a deadly battle with a powerful enemy.
In fact, within the Yao family, Yao Tuozi and Yao Xun belong to two direct lineages. One line majors in refining medicine, and the other line majors in medicine. Yao Tuozi's lineage actually majors in refining medicine, but when it comes to medicine,
When he was Tuozi's father, he gradually went astray because of his eagerness for quick success. Finally, when he came to Yao Tuozi, he became even more extreme and took poison refining as his major.
Yaoxun's lineage originally focused on medicine, but because of his brother's "not doing his job properly", he could only take over the medicine refining method from another lineage. So far, when Yaoxun became the head of the Yao family, in fact,
Medical science and medicine have become one.
However, in terms of talent attributes, Yaoxun's spiritual domain is called "pulse seizing". In his spiritual domain, the opponent's meridians and acupuncture points can be taken away by him. When he fought Gan Luo before, the silver
Suddenly one link of the chain lost control. It was that link that was like the acupoint node of a chain. It was taken away by Yaoxun before it lost control.
Yao Tuozi's spiritual realm is about nurturing and growing, which is suitable for the development of medicine refining. However, he went astray and practiced the overbearing poison refining technique.
After Yao Tuozi sorted out his meridians for a round, he felt that his injuries had recovered to some extent, and even the spiritual energy that had been severely depleted before had also recovered to some extent.
Slightly leaning forward to salute, Yao Tuozi said at the same time: "Uncle, I was wrong back then. I shouldn't have led others to go my own way. Over the years, I have occasionally reflected on it, but I have never been willing to admit that my choice back then was wrong. Until now.
It was only after I made a big mistake that I realized what you said back then."
After taking a deep look at Yao Tuozi, Yao Xun pondered for a while, then sighed deeply and said: "Hey, I can't blame you entirely for what happened back then. After all, we can't be the same as my father and your grandfather.
The ideas are the same. After so long, generations will have different ideas, and there is nothing we can do about it.
Sometimes there are too many people holding the same idea, pushing you forward like waves, and even if you want to go back, you can't do it. What's more, who doesn't have youthful ambitions, and who doesn't have it?
What kind of ambition is there? If you have not suffered setbacks or experienced hardships, how can you understand the profound meaning of the decisions of your predecessors?"
Listening to Yao Xun's sigh, Yao Tuozi was slightly stunned, and then said with gratitude: "Uncle, don't you blame me anymore, don't you blame me for the things I did back then."
Yao Xun nodded slightly and continued: "Actually, I was a little confused at the time, but after traveling around over the years, staying away from the matter, and even outside the Xuanwu Empire, I found that you cannot be solely blamed for what happened back then.
"
As he spoke, Yao Xun slowly turned sideways and glanced around. Yao Tuozi didn't understand what he meant, so he remained silent and waited quietly for Yao Xun to continue speaking.
After Yaoxun's eyes slowly withdrew, he continued: "Over the years, I have been outside the Xuanwu Empire, and I have clearly seen that the entire Xuanwu Empire has gradually reached the point where it is now. Each of the six major families has their own agenda.
, including the country's leader Xuan Hong, all only consider their own interests and rights, plot against each other, and even secretly work to cut off each other's power.
What is the actual difference between what you did back then and what they did? From the perspective of immediate interests, it may be right. But looking at the Xuanwu Empire, is today's situation just a simple fight between families? Without these
How could it be possible to attract so many flies if the seams were opened during the year?
Looking at the long term, whether today's things can be improved or not, they will be a heavy blow to the entire Xuanwu Empire. I don't know how many years it will take to restore its original strength. This is the biggest loss."
When he first listened, Yao Tuozi just nodded lightly, but after hearing this, Yao Tuozi's face turned red with embarrassment, and sweat dripped down his face.
If the people of the Yao family hadn't suffered a lot under his leadership today, I'm afraid he still wouldn't understand what Yao Xun said. However, recalling that after the split, the Yao family and the medicine sect each operated independently, but they all developed extremely difficultly.
This time it seemed like we were only one step away from victory, but in fact we were getting further and further away from our goal.
Just like Yao Xun said, no matter who wins this time, it will be a huge loss to the Xuanwu Empire and all the forces.
"Uncle, I really realized my mistake this time. The Yao family can no longer continue to be divided. I am willing to take all the people back. I believe that the Yao family should have the same idea as me. We will take people to return the elixir.
Mountains, continue to be the shadow force of the Xuanwu Empire."
Hearing what Yao Tuozi said, Yao Xun had a hint of comfort on his face. If his nephew could repent, he would at least be worthy of his brother who died young.
But then Yao Xun frowned and slowly shook his head. Seeing this, Yao Tuozi said anxiously: "Uncle, what happened back then was all my fault. If you want to punish me, I am the only one who wants to be punished. I hope you can lead Yao Tuozi to
The family is back on its original track.”
Yao Xun smiled bitterly and shook his head and said: "Plamation and punishment will not help. I want to say that the trajectory of the past cannot be returned. After this incident, at least two families will decline. The ghost family and the painter will not survive even if they continue to exist.
They are nothing more than two second-rate forces.
And their departure will leave a vacuum of rights and resources. If we don't move in at this time, the Xuanwu Empire will become more turbulent. Therefore, we can no longer return to the Elixir Mountains, and the peaceful days of those years will be far away from us.
Go, from now on our descendants can only develop in the imperial capital and in the entire Xuanwu Empire like other aristocratic families."
If it were hundreds of years ago, Yao Tuozi might have jumped up with joy when he heard this arrangement. But now he understands that this is not a good thing at all. The younger generations of the family will face the situation of the six major families, fighting for power and
Resources will be forced into the vortex of competition between you and me.
Yao Tuozi hesitated for a moment and said, "Uncle, don't we have any other choice?"
Yao Xun shook his head and said, "Unless we leave the Xuanwu Empire."
Duan Yunshu was not far away. Although he was not the head of the Medicine Sect, he could represent all the decisions of the Medicine Sect. Moreover, before he came, his father asked him to obey Yaoxun no matter what decision he made. Naturally, he
He had no doubts about Yaoxun, and also did not show any joy.
Yao Xun took a deep breath and said again: "Okay, things have reached this point. We just need to work together to face it. Don't think too much. Although the Yao family has lost some people this time,
I believe that after this incident, the Yao family will be more united than any other family."
As if remembering something, Yao Tuozi immediately said: "Uncle, the reason why I come to you now is not just to admit my mistakes and ask for forgiveness. There is one very important thing I want to remind you. The three major families
It shouldn't be monolithic.
Before the Guihua and Guihua families joined forces to take action against the Su family, we actually got some news, that is, the Su family seemed to have special preparations. Therefore, our Yao family did not suffer much losses, and the Qianhuan Sect only let the bloodthirsty
Don charged into the battle, but half of the truly powerful fighting force was not involved.”
After hearing Yao Tuozi's words, both Yao Xun and Duan Yunshu were slightly shocked. At the same time, they turned to look at the Wang family and the Su family. If someone secretly colluded with the enemy, then it was most likely to be one of these two families.
