Chapter 926 The Four Sons of the Holy Palace, Qiao Xiaoye Sang!

Ye Xiaotian was not surprised by Xu Xiaoshou's reaction, and still said calmly:

"Ajie is a puppet of Tianji. He is also the subject of your elder Qiao's research for decades, but he is the closest being to him.

"You should know how much a spiritual formation master who is truly obsessed with the spiritual formation will love and care for a wise puppet. This is like...

"His child."

Ye Xiaotian paused as he spoke and smiled slightly.

Maybe Xu Xiaoshou still couldn't fully understand what he said.

But as a friend of Qiao Qianzhi, Ye Xiaotian knew that Qiao Qianzhi loved A Jie as much as Xu Xiaoshou.

Even more so.

After all, how could a childless old guy who spent most of his life on Ajie have no feelings?

Seeing that Xu Xiaoshou had no reaction, Ye Xiaotian continued:

"Actually, when you came into contact with Ajie from Tianxuan Sect, you, Elder Qiao, knew about it, but he didn't stop you from taking it out. This was also one of the research strategies.

"We are trying a possibility...

"Is there such a way to 'establish a bond' so that Ajie, the first-generation Tianji puppet, who lost control and only knew brutal killing, and was thrown to the Void Island, became controllable because of his emotions.

"This is something that you, Elder Qiao, have been trying for decades without success. Although he likes A Jie very much, it is undeniable that his experiments hurt A Jie to a certain extent...well, this is inevitable.

"Because of this, it has been difficult for you, Elder Qiao, to get along with Ajie normally."

Ye Xiaotian suddenly changed the subject, took a deep look at Xu Xiaoshou, and said, "Fortunately, you did it. You and Ajie established a deep bond."

"Mom..."

At this moment, a sudden voice appeared.

Xu Xiaoshou's chest trembled, and the iron ball inside glowed red.

As if sensing that there was a dispute between the two parties present, Ajie was ready to fight.

Xu Xiaoshou knew that he could no longer hide now, so he reached out to comfort Ajie, conveying some peace of mind, indicating that the person in front of him was not an enemy, and that there was still room for communication between the two parties.

Ye Xiaotian lowered his gaze and glanced at Xu Xiaoshou's arms, but did not make a move to snatch it. Instead, he continued to meet Xu Xiaoshou's eyes calmly, with inquiring eyes.

He treated Xu Xiaoshou as an equal, and did not care about the relationship between Xu Xiaoshou and his predecessors brought about by calling him "Dean", and tried to use this relationship to force Xu Xiaoshou.

On the contrary, Ye Xiaotian respected Xu Xiaoshou's choice and only used a certain degree of normal persuasion.

He could understand Xu Xiaoshou's feelings for A Jie, but at the same time, he also believed that as long as Xu Xiaoshou calmed down, he would be able to understand his persuasion, which would be more beneficial to A Jie.

Xu Xiaoshou was silent, his fingers gently caressing the iron ball in his arms, his eyes looking hesitant.

He also saw the sincerity of the dean.

Moreover, based on his understanding of Elder Qiao, he was an elder who regarded all the disciples in the outer courtyard as his own children. Although he was a bit greedy for money, his personality and quality were beyond words.

People in Tiansang Ling Palace have more or less shortcomings, such as Elder Sang's gloomy paranoia, Elder Qiao's petty money-obsessed nature, Ye Xiaotian's height...

But actually, the people are very nice.

After pondering for a moment, Xu Xiaoshou made a decision and became firm.

He stared straight ahead, shook his head and continued to refuse:

"To you, Ajie is a test subject, but to me, he is a partner.

"Ajie was already in a miserable state in the past. Now, I won't allow it to be harmed again, not even a little bit!"

The injuries here do not refer to injuries caused by combat, but to man-made injuries caused by research.

For example, when Ajie was first born, Xu Xiaoshou did not know but could imagine the harm caused by being arrested and repeatedly improved because of losing control...

Just like if he really returns to the hands of Elder Qiao later, Ajie may have to face the dissection, modification, refinement and other slice research...

Xu Xiaoshou was afraid of this kind of "research".

Because he had a "passive system" in his mind, ever since he got this thing in Tiansang Ling Palace, he had been worried that he would be captured and sliced ​​for study because of his rapid improvement in cultivation.

Later, even though he knew that no matter how fast his cultivation progressed, there was an Eight Deities weighing on his head, he was completely relieved.

But this does not mean that he has lost his fear of the unknown "being studied".

Since even he is afraid of such horrible things happening, how can Ajie be able to bear it when he is still a baby?

Xu Xiaoshou was determined because of this, holding the iron ball in his arms tightly and refusing to let go at all.

You won't hurt A Jie, so why can we... Ye Xiaotian can see Xu Xiaoshou's sincerity, and also knows that the other person is not saying this just because he only wants to possess A Jie's powerful fighting power.

He was happy that Ah Jie had found such a true master. He was also relieved that Xu Xiaoshou would not forget his original intention even if he joined the Saint Slave. At the same time, he curled his lips and said with a smile:

"Xu Xiaoshou, your thoughts at the moment are just like your master, paranoid to the sky.

“The situation now is that your partner is sick and has not been cured for decades, and there is a possibility that the disease will occur at any time.

"And now someone who has spent decades developing such a targeted treatment skill has a plan to cure your partner's disease.

"There is never a 100% chance of curing a disease or saving a patient, but as your partner's only friend, are you willing to let this opportunity go?

Ye Xiaotian seemed to have returned to the time when he was teaching the inner courtyard disciples. His tone gradually became heavier, but he soon realized that Xu Xiaoshou no longer belonged to Tiansang Linggong.

His last sentence was gentler, and he sighed: "You are Xu Xiaoshou, not Ajie himself. What right do you have to stop Ajie from becoming a normal person?"

This gentle last sentence was like a thunderbolt, suddenly exploding in Xu Xiaoshou's mind.

Xu Xiaoshou was somewhat persuaded.

What the dean said made sense.

Ajie was like a child with congenital defects, and the symptoms were almost unsolvable.

But even so, there is still such a doctor in the world who is willing to spend decades studying the disease and trying to prescribe the right medicine.

Is this a bad thing?

No! This is actually Ajie's luck!

But even knowing this, Xu Xiaoshou still did not lose his mind.

He knew that if the Taoist master could cure Ajie, Ajie would not fall into his hands.

But if even the mysterious Dao Qiongcang can't cure Ah Jie, who else in this world dares to say that they can really cure Ah Jie?

"Elder Qiao, how sure is he?" Xu Xiaoshou closed his eyes, his voice was as soft as a mosquito, almost inaudible.

"He didn't say, and I didn't ask... but I believe in him, just as your master believes in me, and you can believe what your master believes." Ye Xiaotian said frankly.

"30%? 50%?" Xu Xiaoshou couldn't leave Ah Jie to fate, he urgently needed a positive answer.

Ye Xiaotian sighed and didn't respond directly: "If it succeeds, Ah Jie may reach the semi-saint, if it fails, he may be injured, dead or disabled, and at most retain his current appearance."

"How can I hand Ah Jie over to you!" Xu Xiaoshou was furious.

Successfully reaching the semi-saint...

This sounds gratifying, but even the Taoist master can't do it, right?

Can Elder Qiao do it?

And such a huge success will inevitably be accompanied by an unbearable failure.

If it really fails...

Xu Xiaoshou didn't dare to think about it.

At this moment, he even wanted to reach out and slap Ye Xiaotian away, and then walk away. He thought Ye Xiaotian was joking!

Ye Xiaotian took a deep breath, feeling heavy.

He also knew that being honest would not be good for the result. Perhaps at this time, as long as he was a little roundabout and directly said "70%" or "90%", Xu Xiaoshou would give up Ah Jie without saying anything.

But Ye Xiaotian would not do that, and he was disdainful.

"Xu Xiaoshou, maybe you only know a little about your master, but you don't know Tiansang Ling Palace and the seniors you have met before." Ye Xiaotian sighed.

"Dean, just say whatever you want to say." Xu Xiaoshou lost his respectful tone for a while. He was on guard, knowing that the dean might talk back to him next.

Ye Xiaotian did not blame him, but smiled and said shockingly: "I, your master, Lao Qiao, and Lao Xiao, all come from the Holy Palace."

Xu Xiaoshou's eyebrows jumped suddenly, but he showed no surprise: "So?"

Ye Xiaotian remained calm and continued:

"What does the Holy Palace mean?

"To put it simply, you have now passed the King City Trial and got the top 36, and you have to go through the next round of continental-level screening. Under the great waves of gold panning, the absolute elites among the elites will be selected to be eligible to enter the Holy Palace.

"And this is just the basic qualification.

"The inheritance in the Holy Palace has not been cut off. There are more outstanding geniuses and evildoers in it, which can make those who have just entered the Holy Palace feel ashamed and depressed for a few years, and then unable to catch up.

Ye Xiaotian suddenly paused, with a look in his eyes, and said heavily: "But at that time, the four of us were hailed as the four strongest young people in the Holy Palace, namely... the four sons of the Holy Palace, Qiao Xiao and Ye Sang!"

The four sons of the Holy Palace?

Qiao Xiao and Ye Sang?

Xu Xiaoshou couldn't hold it in for a moment, and was a little surprised.

It was the first time he heard this term, but through the introduction of the dean, he could already imagine what kind of title it was.

Before, when Sang Lao showed his strength step by step, and later knew that he was a descendant of the Holy Palace Jinzhao, Xu Xiaoshou felt that Tiansang Linggong was a little scary, and it should be hiding a lot of power.

Once again, Ye Xiaotian showed the spatial attribute, and Xu Xiaoshou thought it was just "special under normal circumstances."

But after entering the martial arts world and witnessing so many thrones and slashing ways, Xu Xiaoshou already understood the meaning behind the spatial attribute, not to mention that Ye Xiaotian also realized the "mystery of space", which was enough to be on par with the head of the spiritual department.

At this time, he felt that Tiansang Linggong was even more terrifying.

However, what he didn't expect was that the mediocre Elder Qiao, the plain and unpretentious Xiao Qixiu, and Sang Lao and Ye Xiaotian were at the same level in the Holy Palace?

The highest level... the four sons of the Holy Palace?

Xu Xiaoshou felt like he was listening to a story, a very unreal fantasy story. He didn't say anything, just stared silently, quietly waiting for Ye Xiaotian's next words.

Ye Xiaotian gave the ignorant young man enough time to calm down, and then said:

"In the Holy Palace, your master has the most explosive temper, and I am the most self-disciplined.

"But in terms of talent, your elder Qiao is the strongest. In terms of means and combat effectiveness... your elder Xiao was known as the 'blood-slaughterer of ten thousand people' at the time.

"The three of us are the ones who have to take care of his aftermath, that is, the kind who wipe his ass."

This vulgar description made Xu Xiaoshou stunned.

This...

It's unscientific!

Xiao Qixiu, blood-slaughterer of ten thousand people?

Xu Xiaoshou vaguely remembered that night in the Spiritual Palace, when Elder Xiao stabbed Bazun with his sword, and then was stabbed through the chest, almost killing everyone.

This was the only time he was impressed by Xiao Qixiu's actions.

I have to say that it was that time that made him feel that some Elder Xiao... was very, uh, a bit ordinary!

"Haha, do you also remember that sword?"

Ye Xiaotian was like a roundworm in Xu Xiaoshou's belly, and smiled and said: "Actually, there is no need to look forward to your elder Xiao so much, because that night, I also had my arm cut off by the Eight Masters."

Xu Xiaoshou suddenly woke up.

Those are the Eight Masters!

At that time, the dean was no match for him, even Mr. Sang couldn't keep him, let alone Xiao Qixiu.

Just when he was thinking this, Ye Xiaotian said again:

“But everything you didn’t understand at that time should be clear to you now.

"Ba Zun is very crazy. In this world, if anyone dares to point a sword at him, under normal circumstances, no one will survive.

"Well, Xiao Qixiu survived... I know it's rude to say this, but after all, Ba Zunzhen is an unparalleled monster, comparable to the ashes of the older generation. You can think carefully about his choice. Among them , what exactly does it mean.”

Xu Xiaoshou was stunned.

He thought again of Su Qianqian's family, who all died in order to defend their rights.

Yes, why was Elder Xiao able to survive at that time? Was it because of his specialness?

What's so special about him?

The Holy Palace is full of geniuses, is it because the Eight Masters appreciate talents?

So, does Elder Xiao have any special talents that I haven’t discovered yet?

Xu Xiaoshou thought about it again and again, still puzzled.

Ye Xiaotian didn't describe Xiao Qixiu too much, because this was just the object he used as a contrast. He only paused briefly and then continued:

"To put aside the digression, among the four sons of the Holy Palace, the one with the most talent is not the three of us, but you, Elder Qiao.

"At that time, Qiao Qianzhi was so talented that he could almost rival the Eighth Sword Immortal, but after he broke through the throne, he made a crazy decision...

"He wants to transform into a pure spiritual formation master!"

Xu Xiaoshou was stunned for a moment, and soon felt relieved. He felt that this was indeed a decision that madmen would make. At this time, he already thought that Linggong F4 were all madmen, very perverted.

Moreover, he could also conclude that the "Spiritual Array Master" defined by Elder Qiao was most likely not a "Spiritual Array Master" in the normal sense.

When Ye Xiaotian said this, he seemed a little helpless and shrugged slightly:

"Qiu Qianzhi believes that in this world, 'pictures'...well, 'array diagrams' are the external expression of everything, and 'patterns'...you can temporarily understand them as simple 'spirit patterns' and 'dao patterns' wait.

“‘Pattern’ is the inner form of everything.

“And the abstract spiritual will that people have has the ability to change or even create ‘pictures’ through ‘patterns’, thereby ‘reifying abstract things’.

“In short, it is to turn ‘utopia’ into ‘reality’.”
