Chapter 678 The Heir of the Xiao Family
As soon as Mr. Xiao said this, it immediately caused shock to the children of the Xiao family's side and direct descendants. They heard that Mr. Xiao would announce his full withdrawal at this family gathering and no longer interfere in any matters of the Xiao family. In other words, Mr. Xiao can only provide advice in the future, not representing the decision of the Xiao family. Although Mr. Xiao is the soul of the Xiao family, his reputation and influence in the Xiao family are very great. To a certain extent, the Xiao family's expansion and stability of the political circles still need Mr. Xiao to help the Xiao family stabilize the overall situation. The struggle in the political circles is much crueler than other struggles.
If you are not careful, you will be a place that will never be restored. In the political world, eternal interests are the most basic creed. Of course, his personal prestige and influence are also indispensable. For example, Mr. Xiao, who followed the highest leader at that time to conquer the world, made great achievements, and became the most capable general of the highest leader at that time. After decades of ups and downs, most of the older generation of revolutionaries were gone. The only thing that survived was Mr. Xiao. Therefore, Mr. Xiao’s influence and prestige in the political world could not be ignored. The Xiao family relied on Mr. Xiao as a soul figure to gain the political world in politics.
One huge profit after another. As a result, Mr. Xiao’s reputation and influence in the Xiao family are also very huge. However, Mr. Xiao had not withdrawn from the Xiao family stage before, and he still controlled a certain right to make decisions. Even if the other people in the Xiao family could ignore Mr. Xiao’s influence and reputation, they would not ignore the power in the hands of Mr. Xiao. On the surface, they had to obey the leaders of Xiao Tiancheng and others, and dare not have any unfair intentions towards the Xiao family. If Mr. Xiao withdraws from the Xiao family stage, then Mr. Xiao’s reputation and his authority will inevitably be curbed. At that time, other forces in the Xiao family will unite to resist Xiao
Tiancheng, Xiao Zhe and others, then the power of the Xiao family will be greatly affected. Could it be that Mr. Xiao is really relieved that Xiao Tiancheng, Xiao Zhe and others can completely control the overall situation of the Xiao family? Moreover, the third generation of the Xiao family, such as Xiao Ran and others, have not yet grown up completely. Without the control of Mr. Xiao, can Xiao Ran and others grow up quickly? There are too many questions and confusions that make it difficult for everyone to see clearly what is the real intention of Mr. Xiao suddenly announced his withdrawal. What is the real intention contained? People with such high political wisdom do everything they do, which will have a decisive impact on the overall situation in the future.
Xiao Ran was also surprised when he heard that Mr. Xiao wanted to withdraw from the Xiao family stage in an all-round way. According to his understanding, the Xiao family was not as united and harmonious as he saw on the surface, and the Xiao family was still full of struggle. Among the second-generation leading figures of the Xiao family, Xiao Tiancheng, Xiao Zhe, Xiao Weiwu and others completely controlled the power of the Xiao family. They can be said to be the most orthodox representative of the Xiao family, exerting all the privileges of the Xiao family and using all the resources outside the Xiao family. However, there are still several major factions within the Xiao family.
The power can influence the direction and decision-making of the Xiao family. Mr. Xiao retreated at this time. What is his real purpose? Does Mr. Xiao really feel that Xiao Tiancheng, Xiao Zhe, Xiao Weiwu and others have completely controlled the power of the Xiao family? Even in the next generation of heirs' voice, do they have a strong influence? For a moment, Xiao Ran could not see the real intention of Mr. Xiao doing this. He knew that Mr. Xiao was a very wise person, and everything he did
Things are not as simple as you see on the surface. Mr. Xiao must have his profound meaning when he did this. Could it be that Mr. Xiao has reached a compromise with a certain faction of the Xiao family? It is not impossible. After all, the Xiao family is in a relatively embarrassing position. On the one hand, the problem of the Xiao family's heir has not been finalized. On the other hand, the rapid development of the Xiao family has caused dissatisfaction and panic among the top leaders of the country and several other major families. Everyone is trying their best to suppress the Xiao family.
With the rapid development momentum, I was afraid that the Xiao family would develop too quickly and eventually annex their power. This can infer the current embarrassing status of the Xiao family from the situation in Jiangzhou City. Mr. Xiao did this based on the conditions of reaching a compromise with a certain force in exchange for temporary stability and development of the Xiao family. Is this like this? It is difficult for Xiao Ran to make a judgment before he received the confirmed information. He just made a rough judgment quickly based on Mr. Xiao and the current situation.
After hearing Mr. Xiao, Xiao Weiwu, Xiao Zhe and other brothers showed a hint of surprise on their faces. However, soon, the brothers returned to peace, as if nothing had happened just now. Everyone's eyes fell on Xiao Tiancheng. Mr. Xiao announced his withdrawal from any affairs of the Xiao family. This means that Xiao Tiancheng must fully grasp the power of the Xiao family and become the real head of the Xiao family. The power of the Xiao family is no less than the power of a senior leader of a country, and even more powerful than some leaders of the country's top leaders. You must know that the Xiao family has an unshakable status and influence in both politics, business, military and cultivation. Becoming the head of the Xiao family is not only an internal matter of the Xiao family, but also a major event of the country. Who will fall on the head of the Xiao family in the end will affect the future direction of the country, and every pair of eyes will be tight.
Staring at the position of the head of the Xiao family. Mr. Xiao announced his withdrawal from the Xiao family in full, which was equivalent to announcing to the Xiao family, the country and everyone in the world that he would give up the position of the head of the Xiao family to Xiao Tiancheng. From then on, the real person in charge of the Xiao family was Xiao Tiancheng. Xiao Tiancheng sat there calmly, his expression was still, and he did not take everyone's eyes to heart. He raised his head, looked at Mr. Xiao, and said lightly: "Old man, the Xiao family is not very stable now. Whether from the outside or the inside, you need you to take charge of the overall situation. At this time, the old man should take on a great responsibility. I am still inexperienced and need more time to hone and recognize the situation. I also need the old man to give advice from the side. Therefore, Mr., I still hope that you can consider whether to withdraw from the Xiao family's affairs. It is still the same as before, when encountering key things, the old man will make a decision."
"Haha, hahaha." Old Master Xiao laughed a few times, pointed at Xiao Tiancheng, and said slowly, "Tiancheng, you are good at everything, but this is not good. You are too cautious, so that no one can see your strengths. Perhaps, people who don't understand the situation think that the Xiao family has developed so quickly over the years. While developing, it is all the credit of me, the old man. In fact, the hearts of several of us are the ones.
It is very clear that the Xiao family has its current status and influence, and it is all achieved by you, Xiao Tiancheng. However, you put this credit on me. Outsiders do not understand the situation and think it is my old man's decision. But they don't know that the real powerful person in the Xiao family is not me, but you, Xiao Tiancheng." These words greatly admire Xiao Tiancheng, which shows that Xiao Tiancheng's talent and ability have truly been recognized and praised by Mr. Xiao.
The leaders of the other major sects of the Xiao family all know Xiao Tiancheng and know that the Xiao family has its current status and influence. Xiao Tiancheng is invincible. Everyone sees his talents and wisdom. It is precisely this way that everyone in the Xiao family recognizes Xiao Tiancheng very much and respects him the most noble respect. Especially ten years ago, when the Xiao family faced a huge disaster, it was Xiao Tiancheng who turned the tide, led the Xiao family's children to resist the Temple of Death, and took the Xiao family with him.
After getting out of the disaster. Over the past ten years, Xiao Tian has become a restore of the vitality of the Xiao family and has been working hard. In the past ten years, the Xiao family has once again rejuvenated new vitality in Xiao Tiancheng's hands. The scenes of this scene are all in everyone's minds. Therefore, Mr. Xiao's words only caused a little surprise to the people of the Xiao family, but they quickly returned to peace. They felt that what Mr. Xiao said would not be aimless. Xiao Tiancheng did have the ability to shoulder this important task.
Xiao Zhe, Xiao Weiwu and others sat beside Xiao Tiancheng without saying a word. They have become spiritual people. They know what to say and what not to say at this time must be clearly distinguished. Xiao Tiancheng's expression was still motionless, and he sat there calmly, saying slowly: "Old man, the Xiao family has its current status and influence. It is the result of the joint efforts of the old man and the thousands of children of the Xiao family. It is not the credit of me, Xiao Tiancheng. Moreover, the old man is the soul of the Xiao family and the most precious wealth of the Xiao family. The old man is there, and the soul of the Xiao family is there. Therefore, the old man, the Xiao family still needs you, and you still need to go through this journey under your leadership. Please take back Cheng's life and continue to lead the Xiao family forward."
Mr. Xiao waved his hand and said lightly: "Tiancheng, what I decided will not change. I said that I want to withdraw from the core area of the Xiao family's power, that is, I must withdraw from the entirely. Over the years, the Xiao family has been leading to another glory under your leadership. I am really happy for you in my heart, and I am also very happy for the Xiao family to have such a wise head. If someone asks me what my greatest achievement in my life is. Then I will tell that person that my greatest achievement in my life is not because I established a huge Xiao family empire, nor because I pushed the Xiao family to another glory, but when I was alive, I cultivated an extremely wise and wise family for the Xiao family.
The leader comes. Tiancheng, with you here, the Xiao family can maintain a period of rapid development for fifty years. However, I hope Tiancheng remembers that the Xiao family can have continuous development momentum, not because the Xiao family has huge resources and wealth, but when the Xiao family chooses the next generation of heirs, they are very cautious, and they focus on talent and character. The position of the Xiao family's heir is very important, which is the guarantee for the development of the next generation of the Xiao family. That's right, I want Tiancheng, you, the contemporary head of the family, to pay attention to the heirs of the Xiao family, and even if it violates some family rules, it is all hesitant." It can be seen that the heirs of the Xiao family are a very important thing for the Xiao family. Anyone or anything must be selected as the selection of the Xiao family heirs.
Xiao Tiancheng knew that Mr. Xiao had made up his mind and would not change his decision. Although he felt a pity in his heart, he suddenly felt that the pressure increased. Originally, it was very difficult for him to take the Xiao family alone to control the overall situation of Yanjing City. Yanjing City is different from Jiangzhou City. Although both are the base camps of the Xiao family. However, Jiangzhou City is just an economic center city and an international metropolis after all, it is closely related to commercial interests. It is difficult to deal with it. However, compared with the political forces, it is obviously easy.
There are many political forces in Yanjing City, and many political forces are located here, including the base camps of the country's top leaders. Faced with so many political forces that can affect the fate of the country, it is quite difficult to control the overall situation of Yanjing City. Apart from Xiao Tiancheng, there are really few people in the Xiao family who can achieve this. Mr. Xiao also saw Xiao Tiancheng's talent and courage, so he would feel at ease to hand over the power of the Xiao family to Xiao Tiancheng's hands. The Xiao family will definitely move towards another glory in Xiao Tiancheng's hands.
After hearing Mr. Xiao’s words, Xiao Tiancheng smiled slightly and knew Mr. Xiao’s intentions. He nodded and said, “Don’t worry, Mr., don’t worry, I will do the issue of the Xiao family’s heir as the most important job. I also hope to see that the Xiao family can last forever and choose the right heir. For the Xiao family, it is a great development momentum. If the heir is chosen wrong, the future future of the Xiao family will be worrying. Mr., don’t worry, I will pay attention to every child with the qualification to inherit the Xiao family. I will vigorously cultivate the Xiao family’s children so that our Xiao family can truly grow up and be alone.” His tone is very firm, as if he had an idea in his heart, and he also had a plan to train the Xiao family’s heirs.
Mr. Xiao nodded, and was quite satisfied with Xiao Tiancheng's statement. He looked at the time, laughed and said, "Okay, in a few days, when our Xiao family selects the next generation of heirs, I have withdrawn from the core power of the Xiao family. But I am still a member of the Xiao family. Let's do something for the Xiao family and see what kind of quality our next generation of heirs are. The issue of the Xiao family's heirs is very important. This is a resolution reached by the Xiao family's presbyterian church. No one or any force can interfere with the selection of the Xiao family's heirs. The selection of the Xiao family's heirs must
It must be based on fairness, justice and openness. If I find that anyone, any of the forces of the Xiao family, are secretly making trouble, hum, my old man has withdrew from the core power of the Xiao family, it does not mean that I have no way to deal with these people. No matter who I am, as long as I come to infringe on the fundamental interests of the Xiao family, I will not let anyone go." After saying that, he glanced at everyone with a sharp look, and a shocking momentum enveloped everyone's heart. Everyone was shocked. Unexpectedly, Mr. Xiao's cultivation level had reached such a high level. Just from the momentum, he could suppress everyone's breath.
Xiao Ran was also shocked. His cultivation had already broken through to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul stage, and the Nascent Soul he condensed was the Nine Heavens Nascent Soul, which was the highest level of Nascent Soul from ancient times to the present. Although his cultivation level was in the Nascent Soul stage, from his comprehensive strength, he had reached the Mahayana level, especially his spiritual power, which was extremely condensed. Even when facing a strong person whose cultivation level was several levels higher than him, he would not be in a defeat in the spiritual realm, and he would not even have any resistance power. However, today, he felt a great majesty from Mr. Xiao. This majesty comes from his own cultivation level, and partly the domineering aura from the superior. Once he exerts it, he
Come, the continuous and suppressed Xiao Ran almost broke his mental power. He was surprised, but his face was still extremely calm and showed no strangeness. He mobilized the true energy and slowly forced the spiritual power released by Mr. Xiao out of the spiritual world bit by bit. Then, he steadily protected the door of the spiritual world, otherwise Mr. Xiao's spiritual power would enter his spiritual world in half. In an instant, the whole person became much more comfortable. A sharp-eyed person would see that there were layers of light gas on Xiao Ran's body, covering Xiao Ran and protecting Xiao Ran. The layers of light gas were a gas released by Xiao Ran's Nine Heavens Yuanying, which was the most original Dao gas, which was extremely powerful.
Mr. Xiao looked at Xiao Ran in surprise. Just now, he released his spiritual power and deliberately put half of his spiritual power on Xiao Ran, just to see how powerful Xiao Ran's cultivation reached. He had heard Han Yu say that Xiao Ran's cultivation and strength were not as simple as he saw on the surface, and he wanted Mr. Xiao to attract enough attention. It was a huge development adventure for the Xiao family to say that Xiao Ran was in power. Mr. Xiao was surprised when he heard that a super expert like Han Yu praised Xiao Ran, so he took this opportunity to test Xiao Ran's true strength. At the beginning, he was also afraid that his spiritual power would be too strong, which would make Xiao Ran's spiritual world unable to withstand it.
.However, when his spiritual power wanted to enter Xiao Ran's spiritual world, he suddenly discovered that a huge gas suddenly emerged in Xiao Ran's body, which barely blocked his spiritual power, making his spiritual power unable to enter Xiao Ran's spiritual world at all. Now, Mr. Xiao had seen Xiao Ran's true power and truly believed in Han Yu's words in his heart. Xiao Ran's true strength was not as simple as he saw on the surface. Among the younger generation of the Xiao family, it was a relatively comforting thing to have a genius like Xiao Ran. However, Mr. Xiao knew in his heart that Xiao Ran had not really grown up yet. Only when Xiao Ran really grew up was Xiao Ran's other glory in his life.
When Mr. Xiao saw that Xiao Ran could block his spiritual power, he knew that no matter how much he attacked, he could not shake the blockade of Xiao Ran's spiritual power, he nodded slightly and stopped testing Xiao Ran's strength. He slowly retracted his spiritual power. Suddenly, he saw the difference between the younger generation of the Xiao family. Many younger generations of Xiao family members were pale and cold sweat appeared on their foreheads after Mr. Xiao retracted his spiritual power. Only Xiao Ran and the younger generation of Xiao family members were still in a state of disguise, and did not take Mr. Xiao's spiritual power to heart. Among the younger generation of the Xiao family, there were still a few capable people.
After Mr. Xiao took back his spiritual world, he laughed, glanced at everyone, and said, "Today, there is one last thing, and it is the most solemn thing in our Xiao family's family gathering, that is, one of our Xiao family is about to come back. No one has to guess, it is Xiao Ran, the son of Xiao Tiancheng, the contemporary head of the Xiao family. Ten years ago, the Temple of Death attacked our Xiao family, and the Xiao Tiancheng family sacrificed a lot for the fundamental interests of the family. It was at that time that Xiao Ran was chased by the Temple of Death and was forced to flee outside. After suffering for more than ten years, he did not ask for help from the Xiao family, nor did he get a penny from the Xiao family. Xiao Ran, come here and come to grandpa."
After hearing Mr. Xiao’s words, Xiao Ran showed a calm smile on his face, walked to Mr. Xiao with a very calm expression, and said respectfully: “Grandson wishes grandpa good health.” Then, he stood there quietly, motionless. No external pressure could have any impact on him. Even Mr. Xiao and Xiao Tiancheng were extremely surprised by this skill of cultivation. However, they soon thought that when Xiao Ran was so dangerous in prison, he could be calm and calm, and one day he would destroy the rebellion in the prison. Such a result alone was enough to prove Xiao Ran’s ability and talent.
