Chapter 249 Meeting the Ancestor
Apart from the first two things, the third thing to do is to bury the emperor.
From the beginning of the battle to seize the throne to the present, the emperor's body has not been able to be laid to rest.
Although there had been many conflicts between father and son in the past, it was still a father-son relationship, and Xiao Tingxuan still wanted to see him off in a glorious way.
Of course, the reason why Xiao Tingxuan did this actually had his own calculations and plans.
First of all, by having him bury the emperor himself, he can show the world that he, Xiao Tingxuan, is the true and legitimate heir to the throne, and Xiao Jiyun is just a treacherous minister who killed the emperor and usurped the throne.
In this way, the people of the world can see the truth clearly and recognize him as the new emperor.
Secondly, Xiao Tingxuan is going to use this as an excuse to publicize, claiming that the death of the old emperor is related to the Lihuo Dynasty. Xiao Tingxuan and the Lihuo Dynasty are sworn in for the murder of his father.
In this way, Xiao Tingxuan can legitimately launch a war against the Lihuo Dynasty.
Originally, after successfully defeating Xiao Jiyun, Xiao Tingxuan immediately sent his men to Dali Temple to arrest relevant personnel of the Lihuo Dynasty.
However, what is unexpected is that the people from the Lihuo Dynasty moved very quickly. When Xiao Tingxuan's people arrived at Dali Temple, they had already disappeared without a trace.
The fourth and last thing, which is undoubtedly the most important thing, is to order the ministers to choose an auspicious day to hold the enthronement ceremony.
Of course, Xiao Tingxuan does not need to do these trivial matters personally, he only needs to pass down the decree.
However, there is one thing that needs to be done by Xiao Tingxuan personally.
After the palace was completely cleaned up, Xiao Tingxuan, Mu Fei, and Li Yifan went straight to the depths of the palace.
Xiao Tingxuan went there this time because he wanted to visit that person and talk to that person.
The person Xiao Tingxuan mentioned was Xiao Fang, the ancestor of the Xiao family and the founding emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
What was different from previous emperors was that when those emperors went to see Xiao Fang in the past, Xiao Fang did not show up and only conveyed messages from a distance.
However, when Xiao Tingxuan came in person this time, Xiao Fang took the initiative to show up.
In fact, Xiao Fang doesn't want to come out, but facing Xiao Tingxuan's lineup, do you think he dares not to show up?
If Xiao Fang doesn't show up, Xiao Tingxuan will pull him out.
Also when he saw Xiao Tingxuan and the other three people, Xiao Fang was filled with horror.
Xiao Tingxuan's strength has only reached the Grand Master realm. Even Li Yifan is in the same Golden Body realm as him.
As for Mu Fei, Xiao Fang couldn't understand it. Could it be that he had surpassed the golden body and reached the realm of soul?
At this moment, Xiao Fang finally understood why Xiao Jiyun lost.
As for Xiao Tingxuan's lineup, the outcome would be the same if he went into battle in person.
"The descendant Xiao Tingxuan has met the ancestor."
Xiao Tingxuan saluted Xiao Fang respectfully, showing his respect for his elders.
Xiao Fang stared at Xiao Tingxuan, with a hint of meaning flashing in his eyes, and slowly said: "I didn't expect that you would win the throne in the end."
In response, Xiao Tingxuan just smiled and responded humbly: "It's just good luck."
Xiao Tingxuan said it very sincerely. He was indeed lucky enough to obtain the system. Without this lucky opportunity, I am afraid he would have died long ago, and how could he still be dancing here.
Of course, these words are irrelevant now. The most important thing is that Xiao Tingxuan is now the ultimate winner of this power struggle.
"This junior has always had doubts in his heart. Since you, the ancestor, are sitting in the palace, why do you still have to watch my father being murdered by people from the Lihuo Dynasty? Even at the last moment, ancestor, you still have to help Xiao Jiyun, and also Please enlighten me, ancestor."
Xiao Tingxuan asked the question directly, which was also the main purpose of his visit today. He wanted to get answers from Xiao Fang to resolve the long-standing confusion in his heart.
With Xiao Fang, a strong man with a golden body sitting in the palace, it is logically impossible for the emperor to be murdered, but why didn't Xiao Fang take action to stop it?
The second thing is why Xiao Fang valued Xiao Jiyun so much, and even in the end, he entrusted all the royal family's background to Xiao Jiyun. This really confused Xiao Tingxuan.
After hearing that Xiao Tingxuan was asking about these two things, Xiao Fang sighed and said, "It's a long story."
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Fang did not hide anything from Xiao Tingxuan and told him clearly the entire incident.
It turned out that Xiao Tingxuan's father had always been obsessed with pursuing immortality. Xiao Fang knew this very well and had warned Xiao Tingxuan's father many times, but the other party never listened.
Because of this, Xiao Fangfang understood that Xiao Tingxuan's father was destined to suffer this fate. This was the law of reincarnation in heaven, so he decided not to interfere.
As for Xiao Jiyun, it was because he saw destiny in Xiao Jiyun.
According to Tianji, Xiao Jiyun will be the next successor to the throne of Zhou Dynasty.
For this reason, he resolutely chose to stand by Xiao Jiyun's side and give him all his help.
But who knew that Xiao Jiyun would lose to Xiao Tingxuan in the end. This was simply unbelievable and completely violated the laws of heaven.
In addition, if Xiao Fang has other thoughts, it is that he also has selfish motives.
In fact, in Xiao Fang's heart, he is also eager to cooperate with the Lihuo Dynasty and go to the Western Burial Ground to explore the relics left by the master. He also hopes that he can break through to the realm of Yuanshen.
The Yuanshen realm is full of endless temptations for him.
After listening to Xiao Fang's explanation, Xiao Tingxuan has already understood the whole story.
Then Xiao Tingxuan looked at Xiao Fang and said calmly: "Old Ancestor, you have lived here for many years. I think you are used to it. You can stay here with peace of mind in the future."
Xiao Fang was stunned when he heard this. He didn't quite understand what Xiao Tingxuan meant.
Could it be that Xiao Tingxuan intends to imprison him here forever?
Absolutely impossible!
You know, he has practiced for many years, and his strength has already reached the peak of the golden body, and he is only one step away from breaking through to the Yuanshen realm.
With just an appropriate opportunity or an opportunity to help, he can easily cross this threshold.
With his current strength, even if he faces a strong man in the Yuanshen realm, it is impossible to trap him.
Therefore, Xiao Fang does not believe that Xiao Tingxuan has such ability.
Xiao Fang didn't believe that Xiao Tingxuan had this ability, and Xiao Tingxuan was too lazy to explain to him.
Xiao Tingxuan turned his head and his eyes fell on Mu Fei, then he said lightly: "Sir, please start!"
Long before coming, Xiao Tingxuan had already thought about how to deal with Xiao Fang.
Xiao Fang was his ancestor, and as the founding emperor of the Great Zhou, Xiao Tingxuan knew that he could never do anything to betray his teacher and ancestors. Therefore, the only feasible way was to restrict Xiao Fang's freedom and imprison him forever in this deep palace.
