A Loving Father And A Filial Son Keep Tight-Lipped

(~˘▾˘)~~(˘▾˘~)

===================

In the main hall of the Xiao Family, a young man who looked similar to Xiao Fan was sitting upright, holding a sword technique book in his hands and reading it.

Xiao Fan entered the hall and saw his father engrossed in reading. Not wanting to disturb him, he quietly stood to the side. When he got tired of standing, he found a place to sit on his own.

Xiao's father raised an eyebrow and put down the sword technique book.

He casually said, "You're back."

Xiao Fan immediately stood up and said seriously, "Father."

"Mm." Xiao's father nodded lightly, carefully examining Xiao Fan. He was quite satisfied in his heart. "Mid Nascent Soul stage, it seems you have been working hard in the Sacred Land."

Working hard?

That was not entirely wrong. If it weren't for Su Yiyun being so lazy, he would have worked even harder.

"Just average hard work, just average hard work," Xiao Fan chuckled.

A father knows his son best. Xiao Fan lifted his butt slightly, and Xiao's father knew that Xiao Fan was about to fart.

"No need to beat around the bush, tell me, what do you want from me?" Xiao's father spoke up.

Xiao Fan smiled and said, "Father, you are truly wise and martial, handsome and suave, elegant and unparalleled..."

Xiao's father interrupted his flattery, "Cut it out, get to the point."

Xiao Fan said, "Well, I have a friend who wants to reshape their physical body. Can you provide them with a body?"

"Hmm?"

"This matter is not up for discussion, forget about it."

Xiao Fan couldn't hold back anymore, but he still smiled and said, "Father, my request is not high. Any body capable of carrying a Mahayana soul will do."

With a damaged divine soul for thirty thousand years, it probably wasn't much stronger than a Mahayana soul. That was his estimation.

Xiao's father looked confused. You call that not a high request?

"No."

Xiao Fan was speechless. Don't force me to go all out!

Xiao's father continued, "However, there is a way."

"What way?"

"You bring back the Nine Dragon Carriage, and I'll find a way for you."

Xiao Fan was stunned. Goodness, he was still thinking about that thing of mine.

If I don't give you a challenge, you'll think I'm afraid of you, won't you?

"Father, do you think Mother is powerful?" Xiao Fan suddenly asked.

Xiao's father was taken aback by the question, then sneered, "You want to complain to your mother? Do you think I'm afraid of her? You've miscalculated."

Xiao Fan smiled faintly, coughed twice, and took out a letter from his storage bag.

He read aloud:

"Xiao Lang, it's been three days since I last saw you, and you seem even more handsome. I have comprehended about seventy to eighty percent of the dual sword technique you taught me, but there are still some parts I don't understand. Can you personally guide me?"

"Xiao Lang, I'm planning to go to the Monster Qi Forest recently. I heard there are many monsters inside. Can you come with me? Of course, I won't let you go for nothing. This is my golden token. It has a monthly limit of three hundred thousand High Grade Spirit Stones. You can use it."

"Xiao Lang..."

He read one letter after another, and Xiao's father's scalp went numb.

His face stiffened for a moment, but he hid it well and immediately returned to normal.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

"A young person like you not focusing on serious matters, who let you read these things? Hand them over quickly."

Without waiting for Xiao Fan's consent, he collected the letters with a wave of his hand. When he saw the familiar handwriting, his heart skipped a beat.

He almost exposed himself, but he carefully put them away and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Letters are nothing. Father, take a look at what I found in your bedroom."

As he spoke, he took out a portrait. Inside was a handsome man and a beautiful woman, gazing at each other affectionately.

The man in the painting was Xiao's father.

"You, you're slandering me."

Xiao's father became anxious and immediately took it back.

Now you have no evidence, right?

Xiao Fan had been skilled at manipulating people for quite some time.

He said, "Father, what I showed you was just a small part of what I copied."

"I still have a lot more hidden."

"You don't want my mother to know about this, do you?"

Xiao Lang's scalp tingled. He knew that this kid coming back meant trouble.

Xiao Lang coughed lightly. "I haven't left the house in hundreds of years. These are all old stories. Even if you tell others, I'm not afraid."

"Oh, really? What about the letter from three years ago?" Xiao Fan said calmly.

"That was just a discussion about sword cultivation. I have the reputation of being the best sword cultivator in the world. She asked me how to cultivate the sword, and I simply answered as a friend."

Xiao Lang's heart was filled with cold sweat. If this got out and this kid's mother found out, he would be in big trouble.

How did he find out when the matter was so secretive?

"Do you think my mother will believe what you say?" Xiao Fan said with a smile that wasn't a smile.

"Cough, if you want something, just say it. You want a physical body, right? Alright, alright, I'll give it to you. Go to the clan's treasury and find it. I'll inform them."

Xiao Lang didn't want to argue with him. This kid had never been serious since he was a child.

"Thank you, father."

"Oh, as for your affair with the Holy Mistress Bai Hua, I promise to keep it a secret. I will never tell anyone."

He vowed solemnly.

What could Xiao Lang do? Of course, he chose to believe him.

"Now go."

"Okay, I'm leaving." After saying that, Xiao Fan left happily.

As for whether to keep it a secret?

I will definitely keep it to myself. I am the most filial son to my father. How could I harm him?

Filial piety.

After leaving the main hall, Xiao Fan had a firm thought in his mind. Only secrets that are not exposed can be used repeatedly. Only secrets that are not exposed are good secrets. Hehehehe...

Actually, even without considering this, Xiao Fan wouldn't have said anything. Who doesn't have a secret love in their heart?

In this fantasy world where polygamy is everywhere, his father only has one wife, making him the most affectionate person in the fantasy world.

Xiao Fan also inherited this affection, but in the process of inheriting it, his heart was broken. Each piece of it fell in love with different people.

Just an ordinary person who loves everyone.

...

For the Xiao Family, reshaping the physical body was not a difficult task.

It's just that the reshaped body wasn't as high-level.

"How is it? Does it fit?" Xiao Fan asked the little doll bouncing in front of him.

"Yes, thank you." The little doll said excitedly. After thirty thousand years, I can finally come out.

This doll was the dragon soul in the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest.

The soul of an immortal was damaged and now resides in an ordinary body. Although he couldn't exert his full power, he could move freely.

This Tai Xu Ancient Dragon was ecstatic.

"Sigh, it cost me a lot to reshape your body." Xiao Fan said with a pained expression.

This was not a lie. This body was prepared by the Xiao Family for Mahayana cultivators. If their cultivation went wrong or they failed to transcend tribulation, as long as their remnant soul remained, they could be reborn using this body.

Although the divine soul was damaged and might not reach the previous heights, at least they were still alive, and being alive meant there was hope.

It is said to be made by the Heavenly Ancestor, so the quality is guaranteed.

"I will never forget your kindness, I promise." The little dragon soul doll vowed solemnly.

"Don't say that. I helped you because I consider you my brother. Don't be so formal." Xiao Fan said seriously.

Long Aotian was moved by his words. They say that humans are fierce and cunning, but it seems biased. Who says there are no good people among humans? Didn't I meet a good person?

"What about my sister?" Long Aotian asked.

"Oh, your sister's soul is more severely damaged. We are still discussing treatment plans, but please rest assured, I will do my best to help her."

"We are like brothers, and your sister is my sister too!" Xiao Fan said seriously. Become a Dragon Knight, I have decided!

As he spoke, Grand Righteous Qi radiated from Xiao Fan, making it hard for people to doubt his sincerity.

Long Aotian was also moved and didn't doubt him with such a statement.

Although his sister was only a Mahayana cultivator, in terms of the essence of her soul, she was a dragon soul and had a higher level than himself.

Even in his prime, he couldn't heal the divine soul. Thinking of this, Long Aotian sighed, "If only I could contact Father."

"It's okay, no need to rush."

Xiao Fan chatted with Long Aotian for a while and then left him with Xiao An.

One was twelve years old, and the other had been imprisoned for thirty thousand years, so they were roughly the same age. They should be able to play well together.
