Cultivator In Control Chapter 8

"You... I'm telling you, you've been occupying the position of the direct heir of our Xiao family for many years. No one wants to kill you and make room for the direct heir. You'd better know yourself. The direct blood in you is useless. If it weren't for the two major branches competing with each other, you would have died long ago."

"If you ask me, you'd better surrender to us, and we can help you save your life."

"None of your business."

"you."

"Not knowing what's good for you."

"I think you can't keep the gold nugget even if you hold it. You will come to us for help one day. Humph." The fat man snorted coldly and left.

Only Nathan Xiao was left, with his head slightly lowered, looking at the ground, his eyes focused, becoming lifeless, even dead.

"That's right, I have implicated Xiao Xiao. I am a loser, I don't have any resources for cultivation. If I could give Xiao Xiao some resources, she might have a better fortune..."

...

Ethan Xiao on this side, after walking up the last step, the pressure suddenly disappeared, causing her body to tremble. In order to avoid making such a low-level mistake as falling, she leaned forward, steadied herself and stood up straight.

Ethan Xiao smiled with a beautiful face, a pair of eyes as bright as stars, shining brightly, and turned to look at the master.

"Huh? Master isn't looking at me? At this moment when the whole world is paying attention to him?" Ethan Xiao spotted his master from the crowd. He was lowering his head and emitting a dark aura.

"Master, what's wrong? What happened?"

Just as Ethan Xiao was worried about his master, Xiao He, one of the Patrick Leaders on the left, smiled and said, "Very good, very good."

However, Ethan Xiao didn't even look at him, but kept staring at his Master Oliver Yi.

Xiao He was ignored: If you don't accept my toast, you will have to drink the penalty wine.

"Disrespect for elders..."

"Hey." The Patrick Leader stopped Xiao He from blaming him, looked at Ethan Xiao kindly and said, "Child, you have passed the highest level of soul power assessment. Now, you can get the qualification to be the successor of the Xiao family. The assessment location is in the ancestral hall behind you. Go, don't waste time and let the ancestors blame you."

Ethan Xiao was stunned. Is there such a thing?

So the reward is the successor assessment?

But the heir!

Very attractive.

Now that it has been delivered to my hands, why shouldn’t I take it?

Ethan Xiao said: "Thank you, Chief, for giving me this opportunity."

"You're welcome. You earned it."

"Thank you." After taking a last look at his master, Ethan Xiao let go of some of his worries about his master and walked towards the ancestral hall.

Now, the most important thing is to have a status in this unfamiliar place.

Otherwise, given the Master’s difficult situation in this world, their lives... would be difficult!

...

Ethan Xiao disappeared in front of the ancestral hall in the blink of an eye. As for what was going on inside, that was not something that could be told to outsiders.

"Chief, it's time to hold the second spiritual root test. Can we do it now..." Xiao He was very angry at Ethan Xiao's disrespect to him just now, and he took the opportunity to trip Ethan Xiao up.

"What? A genius who has passed the highest level soul test is not worth your waiting?" the patriarch said slowly.

Xiao He saw that something was wrong and quickly smiled and said, "No, no, I'm just worried that it will affect the next test."

"snort."

Seeing the patriarch's face turn ugly, Xiao He instantly realized that his behavior had gone too far, as if all his little thoughts were exposed under the patriarch's nose, which made him feel timid, "I can't let the old guy notice anything."

Then he smiled and said, "Patriarch, please don't be angry. It was my fault for not considering it carefully."

The patriarch said nothing more.

...

On Ethan Xiao's side, after pushing open the heavy door of the ancestral hall, what came into view were the hundreds of seats for enshrining in front.

Ethan Xiao: "!!!!"

Ethan Xiao: "It felt like entering a funeral hall."

The entire architecture of the ancestral hall is in black and white, and the exhibits, furniture and utensils inside are all in black and white as well. Doesn't that make people feel scared?

Ethan Xiao's courage is huge, but this definitely does not include ghosts - the creature that can be called a ghost.

The main thing is that as a cultivator, I know for sure that ghosts do exist. They are not like zombies that can be seen with the naked eye. Imagine that there are a group of things around you that you cannot see but exist. How can you not be afraid?

This also made Ethan Xiao feel a gust of wind blowing past - there was a ghost, there was movement behind him - there was a ghost, he was alone - it seemed that there was still a ghost.

Of course, Ethan Xiao didn't have the courage to really use magic or tools to find ghosts, so he could only scare himself, like now.

Ethan Xiao: "I counted with my fingers, this place is very dangerous, not good, not good!"

Ethan Xiao appeared calm on the surface, but he was actually panicking inside and simply looked around.

Ethan Xiao: "How can this be assessed? They only mentioned the location, but didn't say what to assess! Is the Patrick Leader confused?"

"No." Suddenly, the wall that housed the rankings burst into an astonishing red light, instantly illuminating the entire room, accompanied by a voice.

Ethan Xiao: "???!!!" He was so scared that he couldn't help but take a step back.

"Don't worry. I am the spirit of the Xiao Clan's ancestral hall. I am the examiner for your assessment. As for the content of the assessment, the Patrick Leader didn't tell you because he himself didn't know. You are the only disciple who has reached the highest level of the soul ladder in thousands of years. It is normal for him, a child of more than 500 years old, not to know."

Ethan Xiao: "!!!! A descendant who is over 500 years old? Hehehe..."

"This assessment is an illusion assessment. The rules are very simple. It's enough to make sure you can get out. If you can't get out, you will be sent out after two hours, but it will be considered a failure in the assessment." The spirit of the weapon said indifferently.

Ethan Xiao: "?"

Illusion?

This has always been a magical space that Ethan Xiao had only heard of but never seen.

So Ethan Xiao remained very curious about this.

Just to be on the safe side, "Um, is it forbidden to use any other magic or methods?" Ethan Xiao asked.

"Although my body has not yet been infused with spiritual energy and can use magic, nothing is absolute. As long as I use my powerful soul power, I can gather the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the air and transform it into spells and charms, not to mention soul attacks, which are invincible."

"Except for spiritual weapons and spiritual pills, all means can be used." said the weapon spirit.

"That's good, let's start!" Ethan Xiao straightened his clothes and walked forward.

A whirlpool appeared in front of the ranking, and Ethan Xiao went in without stopping.

...

What no one noticed was that Master Oliver Yi had disappeared without a trace.

When the patriarch looked over, he seemed to know something, shook his head and sighed.

...
