I See the Aura of the Great Emperor in All My Disciples

Chapter 1091: The Xin Family’s Secret, Hongyi’s Shock!

Editor: Atlas Studios

In the deep mountains and old forests, the surrounding trees stretched out their thick branches like giants, blocking the sunlight, causing the entire Xin family’s old residence to be drowned in the shadows.

The paint on the walls of the old mansion had already faded, revealing the ancient texture of bricks. The moss in the corner of the wall gradually spread with the passage of time, showing the traces of time. The windows were tightly closed by wooden leaves, and the faint light through the cracks outlined the shadows, giving off a feeling that there was a shocking mystery hidden.

However, this seemingly desolate and uninhabited huge ancient residence had an extremely deep aura, as if a ferocious beast was imprisoned inside! Low roars sounded from within…

In the ancestral hall, there were only a few candles that illuminated the surroundings.

The wind that passed through the tightly shut but somewhat dilapidated wooden window caused the candlelight to sway left and right, pulling Xin Hongyi and the old man’s long shadows to sway left and right.

Hearing the Ancestor’s words, Xin Hongyi’s expression trembled slightly.

“The people above? Ancestor, what exactly are you talking about?”

The entire Xin family had been hidden in the mortal world ever since she was born. They had never had any entanglements with the forces of the outside world, nor did they fight for resources.

At that time, Xin Hongyi thought that the Xin family’s resources were enough to be self-sufficient. At the same time, she hoped that juniors like them could stabilize their state of mind and grow quietly and low-key.

Now that she heard the Ancestor’s words, Xin Hongyi immediately felt a layer of gray veil called “conspiracy” envelop her heart.

It couldn’t be lifted, couldn’t be seen through…

The Old Ancestor held his waist and slowly stood up with his walking stick. He turned to look at Xin Hongyi, his tone filled with dejection.

“It’s very complicated. I’ll briefly explain it to you first. You’ll understand the specifics after I give you enlightenment.”

“But I want to know, Hongyi, for the sake of the Xin family, are you willing to give up everything?” At this point, the old ancestor’s eyes were filled with a sharp divine light! He stared at Xin Hongyi like a pair of eagle eyes.

Xin Hongyi’s body tensed up, but she did not hesitate. She nodded and said, “The Xin family gave me life, so my life naturally belongs to the Xin family.”

Moreover, Xin Hongyi was born in the Xin family and was also favored by her ancestors, parents, and elders. There was no reason for Xin Hongyi to be biased or distant from the Xin family.

Hearing this, the Old Ancestor nodded in satisfaction and said, “Since that’s the case, let’s talk about the origin of our Xin Clan first.”

“We’re actually not from the Mortal Realm.”

Xin Hongyi was shocked. She was born in the Xin family. The ancient books had long explained what the Mortal Realm contained.

“Then we…” Xin Hongyi asked in a daze.

The old ancestor said indifferently, “The Nefarious Demon Region.”

“At that time, we lost contact with the Nefarious Demon Region after the Mortal Realm and the Immortal Realm joined forces to suppress it.” The old ancestor sighed. “However, our Nefarious Demon Region was able to shake the foundation of the Mortal Realm and the Immortal Realm. Didn’t we have some tricks up our sleeves? After suppressing it for hundreds of years, someone came to inform us about being a hidden chess piece.”

Xin Hongyi’s expression was extremely stiff and shocked. Even her mental state began to waver.

Even though she had never thought of it, she subconsciously treated herself as a part of the Mortal Realm after all.

But now, he was told that he was actually not a human, but an enemy race that stood against the human race and brought disaster to the Mortal Realm?

No matter who it was, they would be shaken by such a huge amount of information!

The Old Ancestor glanced at Xin Hongyi and said, “I know that you might not be able to accept it for the time being, but there’s no time.”

“When I was demoted to the Wilderness Region, I also thought that this was a place where inheritances were severed and the cultivation civilization was extremely backward. However, after I was told, the Wilderness Region had a most glorious period even before ancient times.”

“Two of the four Human Ancestors of the Mortal Realm came from here.”

Xin Hongyi was shocked again.

Human Ancestor was an existence at the peak of Mortal Realm, but half of them came from Wilderness Region?

Then why did the Wilderness Region end up in such a state?

He seemed to have guessed what Xin Hongyi was thinking.

The Old Ancestor shook his head and said, “I don’t know the exact reason either. Our Xin family has already become like this after being demoted here after all.”

“However, this has nothing to do with us. Our mission as a hidden chess piece is actually to spy and approach.”

Approach?

Xin Hongyi was stunned and asked, “Old Ancestor wants me to keep an eye on the Cottage?”

At that time, the Xin family already knew about Senior Lu?

When she joined the Hidden Dao Academy in the Southern Region, no one knew about Lu Changsheng.

The Old Ancestor nodded. “That’s right. Do you still remember what I told you about the previous hall master of the Cottage? I asked you to come into contact with the Cottage because I wanted you to uncover the secrets and traces of the previous hall master.”

“According to that lord, the previous hall master of the Cottage was most likely a super expert who participated in the war between the Nefarious Demon Region and the Mortal Realm. At the same time, it was more or less related to the suppression of our Nefarious Demon Region.”

Xin Hongyi was shocked.

“He’s a Divine Master?”

“I don’t know.” The old ancestor shook his head. “This person is extremely mysterious. If he’s still alive now, I’m afraid he’ll be an obstacle for the Nefarious Demon Region to make a comeback.”

“However, this mission is considered a failure.” The Old Ancestor shook his head regretfully. “I originally had the mentality of trying. If I fail, so be it.”

“And what I have to tell you now is to keep an eye on him.”

Xin Hongyi’s expression was solemn as she listened attentively to the Old Ancestor’s words and actions.

“In ancient times, almost all the experts in the Mortal Realm perished. They also knew that the Nefarious Demon Region would break through the seal one day, so they left their inheritance in the ancient battlefield.”

“Those four Human Ancestors were no exception, even though they did not leave behind any inheritances, they left behind items targeting the Nefarious Demon Region.”

“Now, the Supervisory Temple has already made a move,” the ancestor said solemnly. “So, what you have to do is to go to the ancient battlefield and stop the other humans from obtaining this item. Then, you have to bring it back or destroy it!”

“After enlightenment, your bloodline will awaken and your realm will increase greatly. As for how much you can absorb, it depends on how much your bloodline can withstand…”

“However, just in case, I have to ask again.” The old ancestor’s eagle eyes looked at Xin Hongyi and asked, “Will you really be loyal to the Xin family? If this mission is completed, we can return to the Nefarious Demon Region to acknowledge our ancestors when the Nefarious Demon Region makes a comeback!”

Hearing this, Xin Hongyi felt a little conflicted in her heart. However, when she looked at the old ancestor’s eyes, she remembered that she was originally a member of the Xin family… Thus, she took a deep breath and nodded seriously. “I will abandon my identity as Xin Hongyi of the human race.”
