"Ha ha ha, in just one day, the overall strength of the Xiao Family has skyrocketed by several levels! Xiao Chen truly is the Xiao Family's lucky star!"
Feeling the surging power within their bodies, the Second Elder and Third Elder couldn't help but laugh wildly.
"If everyone in the Xiao Family could undergo Marrow Cleansing and Vein Remolding by Xiao Chen, our Xiao Family might beco the top family in the Great Qian Dynasty!"
This statent wasn't an exaggeration at all; in fact, it even seed a bit modest.
If there were enough resources and Xiao Chen could continue the Marrow Cleansing and Vein Remolding, perhaps in a few hundred years, the Xiao Family could dominate the Eastern Wilderness!
"I'm afraid that idea won't work!"
Just as Xiao Chixiong and Xiao Delong were overjoyed, Xiao Zhan shook his head, denying their thoughts.
"One or two people advancing rapidly in cultivation is fine, but if the entire Xiao Family experiences such a phenonon, it will surely arouse suspicion from those with ill intentions.
By then, the Xiao Family might be destroyed by other forces before we even rise. So, until the Xiao Family has enough strength to fend off the covetous eyes of other forces, the fact that Xiao Chen can help us with Marrow Cleansing and Vein Remolding must not be known by anyone outside our family!"
Upon hearing Xiao Zhan's words, the smiles on Xiao Chixiong and Xiao Delong's faces instantly disappeared, replaced by unprecedented seriousness.
What Xiao Zhan said made perfect sense.
They had indeed been carried away by their excitent and hadn't thought things through.
Xiao Zhan's words were like a bucket of cold water, instantly calming their restless hearts.
"The Patriarch is right."
Xiao Mingyi, standing nearby, also nodded and solemnly agreed.
"Although our Xiao Family now has hope for rising, our foundation and heritage are still weaker than many other forces.
If we are targeted by a major power, our Xiao Family will face self-destruction!
So my suggestion is... We must strictly keep today's events confidential; no one else should know about it except for us.
Additionally... In the future, if we want Xiao Chen to help clan mbers with Marrow Cleansing and Vein Remolding, the person's character must be rigorously screened by the family.
And when Xiao Chen steps forward, it's best for him to conceal his identity. This way, even if sothing happens within the Xiao Family, we can ensure Xiao Chen's secrecy won't be exposed."
After a brief contemplation, Xiao Mingyi had already started considering future contingencies.
With just a few words, Xiao Zhan and the others nodded slightly, their faces showing approval.
They hadn't realized that after Xiao Chen's upgrade, his status in their hearts had unconsciously risen several levels, to the point where they felt a strong urge to protect him at all costs.
This was all due to the System's invisible contract, subtly influencing their minds, making it impossible for them to harbor any harmful thoughts towards Xiao Chen!
"How about... I beco Xiao Chen's personal bodyguard? This way, I can protect him as much as possible."
In the midst of their intense discussion, the Third Elder suddenly suggested, causing the others to pause.
Xiao Chen's safety was crucial to the family.
Although Xiao Chen had the dusa Queen by his side, she was a powerful mber of the Naga Tribe and couldn't reveal her identity within the human dynasty.
Therefore, she couldn't act openly in public.
If one of them followed him, they wouldn't be as passive in so cities.
When you're just trying to make great content at .
"No need."
Just as Xiao Zhan and the others were considering the suggestion, Xiao Chen couldn't help but speak up.
"I possess a Divine Power that can conceal my aura. As long as I act cautiously and not too ostentatiously, strong individuals generally won't notice .
And you, as elders of the Xiao Family, if you follow around all the ti, it will only attract attention.
So for now... All the elders need to do is help gather resources, which would be the greatest help to ."
Hearing Xiao Chen's words and glancing at Cai Yan, Xiao Zhan and the others had no choice but to abandon the idea.
If an elder followed a junior around all day, it would undoubtedly signal to others that this person was extraordinary and held a significant position within the family, putting Xiao Chen in the spotlight.
"In that case, we will gather resources in secret to deal with the upcoming troubles!"
After a mont of silence, Xiao Zhan said in a deep voice.
Now that he had broken through to the Celestial Grotto Realm, and the three elders had also advanced, the Xiao Family's current strength was formidable enough to face the combined forces of the Wang and Lin families without fear.
However, they still couldn't contend with the Lin Family in Heavenly Capital City and the Supre Sword Sect.
So they needed to strategize first!
While Xiao Zhan and the others were discussing, Xiao Chen and Cai Yan returned to the courtyard.
Along the way, Cai Yan followed Xiao Chen, her snake tail swaying, and her gaze flickering towards him, as if she had sothing on her mind.
"Is there sothing you want to say? I'm very approachable."
Along the way, being sneaked glances at by dusa made Xiao Chen feel awkward, so he coughed lightly and asked.
Didn't this woman know that her cold and peerless beauty, when sneaking glances at a man like this, would stimulate his hormones?
Fortunately, his self-control was decent, so he didn't lose his composure.
Hearing this, Cai Yan was slightly stunned, and her originally cold face showed a hint of embarrassnt.
"Could you help with my cultivation?"
After saying this with a dodging gaze, the dusa Queen quickly turned her head away.
She was naturally very proud.
This was the first ti in her life she had asked soone for help, and it was a young human man at that.
This made Cai Yan feel very uncomfortable, and she didn't know if she had said sothing wrong.
"What?! You want to help you with your cultivation?!"
Hearing Cai Yan's words, which seed to have a special aning, Xiao Chen almost stumbled and fell to the ground.
Although he had heard stories in his previous life about a monk wanting a snake demon to help him cultivate, encountering such a situation in reality left him at a loss.
They had only known each other for a day, wasn't this progressing too quickly?
Moreover, his cultivation level was relatively low; what if he got drained dry?
