Chapter 1091: Xin Family Secrets, Hong Yi Shocked! (13)
In the deep mountains and old forests, the surrounding trees stretched out their thick branches like giants, blocking the sunlight and making the entire Xin family's old house submerged in shadows.
The walls of the old house had long since faded the paint on the exterior walls, exposing the ancient brick and stone texture. The moss on the corners of the wall gradually spread with the passage of time, showing the traces of time. The windows were tightly closed by wooden shutters, and the faint light from the gaps outlined the shadows, giving a feeling of hiding some shocking mystery.
But such a huge old house that looked uninhabited had a very deep feeling, as if a prehistoric beast was imprisoned in it! Low whistles came from it...
In the ancestral hall, only a few candles illuminated the surroundings slightly.
The wind that came through the tightly closed but somewhat shabby wooden windows blew the candles left and right, pulling the long shadows of Xin Hongyi and the old man left and right.
Listening to the words of the ancestor, Xin Hongyi's face was slightly shocked.
"The people above? What exactly are you talking about, ancestor?"
Since she was born, the entire Xin family has been hidden in the world. They have never had any disputes with external forces, nor have they competed for resources.
At that time, Xin Hongyi believed that the resources of the Xin family were enough to be self-sufficient, and at the same time hoped that the younger generation like them would keep their minds stable and grow up quietly and low-key.
Now, listening to the words of the ancestor, Xin Hongyi suddenly felt a layer of gray veil called "conspiracy" shrouding her heart.
Can't open it, can't see through it...
The ancestor supported his waist, leaned on his crutches, hunched over and slowly stood up, turned around and looked at Xin Hongyi, his tone full of old age.
"Things are complicated, I will tell you briefly first, and you will understand the specifics after you are enlightened."
"But I want to know, Hongyi, can you give up everything for the Xin family?" At this point, the ancestor's old eyes were full of sharp light! Like a pair of eagle eyes, staring at Xin Hongyi tightly.
Xin Hongyi's body was tense, but she did not hesitate, and nodded: "The Xin family gave me life, so my life naturally belongs to the Xin family."
What's more, being born in the Xin family, Xin Hongyi was also favored by the ancestors, parents and elders. Xin Hongyi had no reason to be prejudiced or unfamiliar with the Xin family.
Hearing this, the ancestor nodded with satisfaction and said: "In this case, let's talk about the origin of our Xin family first."
"We are not actually people in the mortal world."
Xin Hongyi's face was shocked. Born in the Xin family, ancient books have long explained what the mortal world includes.
"Then we..." Xin Hongyi asked blankly.
The old ancestor said indifferently: "Evil Demon Realm."
"Our ancestors made a big mistake, although they saved their bloodline... they were also banished to this wild land." The old ancestor's eyes were full of memories, and he sighed: "At the same time, being banished to this area was actually a strategy of the upper class, and we were a hidden chess piece."
"At that time, the Evil Demon Realm was defeated by the mortal world and the fairy world and was suppressed, and we lost contact." The old ancestor sighed: "But, our Evil Demon Realm was able to shake the foundation of the mortal world and the fairy world. How could we not have any means? Hundreds of years after the suppression, someone came to tell us about being a hidden chess piece."
Xin Hongyi's face was extremely stiff, his expression was shocked, and even his state of mind began to waver.
After all, although he had never thought about it. But in his subconscious, Xin Hongyi regarded himself as a member of the mortal world.
Now he was told that he was not actually a human race, but a hostile race that stood on the opposite side of the human race and brought disaster to the mortal world?
No matter who it is, knowing such a large amount of information at once will be shaken!
The old ancestor glanced at Xin Hongyi and said, "I know you may not be able to accept it for a while, but there is no time."
"When I was demoted to the Wild Realm, I also thought that this was just a place where the inheritance was cut off and the cultivation civilization was extremely backward. But after being told, the Wild Realm had a most glorious period earlier than the ancient times."
"Two of the four ancestors of the mortal world came from here."
Xin Hongyi's expression was shocked again.
The human ancestors, the existence standing at the top of the mortal world. But half of them came from the Wild Realm?
Why did the Wild Realm fall to this point now?
It seems that he guessed what Xin Hongyi was thinking.
The old ancestor shook his head and said, "I don't know the specific reason. After all, our Xin family has been demoted here, and it has become like this."
"But this has nothing to do with us. Our task as a dark chess piece is actually to follow and approach."
Approach?
Xin Hongyi was stunned when she heard this, and then asked: "The ancestor asked me to keep an eye on Caotang?"
Did the Xin family already know about Senior Lu at that time?
You know, when she joined the Southern Domain Tibetan Dao Academy, Lu Changsheng was not known at all.
The ancestor nodded, "Yes, remember what I told you about the previous master of Caotang? I let you contact Caotang because I want you to discover the secrets and traces of the previous master."
"According to that adult, the previous master of Caotang is very likely to be a super strong man who participated in the war between the Demon Realm and the Mortal Realm. At the same time, it is more or less related to the suppression of our Demon Realm."
Xin Hongyi looked horrified.
"Is he a god?"
"I don't know." The old ancestor shook his head: "This person is extremely mysterious. If he still exists in the world, it may be an obstacle for our evil demon domain to make a comeback."
"But this mission has failed." The old ancestor shook his head regretfully: "I was originally trying, and if it fails, it fails."
"And what I want to tell you now is to follow."
Xin Hongyi's face was solemn, and he listened carefully to the old ancestor's words and deeds.
"In ancient times, almost all the strong men in the mortal world died, and they also knew that the evil demon domain would break the seal one day, so they left their own inheritance in the ancient battlefield."
"The four human ancestors were no exception. Although they did not leave any inheritance, they left something against the evil demon domain."
"Now, the Supervisory Temple has taken action." The old ancestor said seriously: "So, what you have to do is to go to the ancient battlefield, prevent other human races from getting this thing, and bring it back or destroy it!"
"After the initiation, your blood will awaken and your realm will be greatly improved. How much you can absorb depends on you. How much can the blood of the Xin family bear..."
"However, I will ask again just in case." The ancestor looked at Xin Hongyi with his eagle eyes and asked, "Are you really loyal to the Xin family? If this mission is completed, when the evil demon domain makes a comeback, we can return to the evil demon domain to recognize our ancestors!"
Hearing this, Xin Hongyi struggled a little, but looking at the ancestor's eyes, he thought of himself as a member of the Xin family... So he took a deep breath and nodded seriously: "I will abandon the identity of Xin Hongyi of the human race."
