"There are actually nine souls?" The ancient ancestor was also very confused.
Obviously, he did not expect that when news of the Holy City appeared again, it would be people from nine souls.
"I have read so many classics. As far as I know, only people who have heard of the Holy Clan will have multiple souls. If this is the case, this person should be a member of the Holy City. Man, where did you see it?" Ancient Ancestor asked curiously.
Regarding the Holy City, it seems that it has long been forgotten by the nine great families. After all, for the descendants of these aristocratic families, their understanding of the Holy City is limited to the inherited classics of the aristocratic families.
Moreover, even if it is recorded in these classics, not everyone is qualified to see it.
If Cheng Yu hadn't exposed the nine souls this time, they would never have thought of the word Holy City again, because this Holy City had never existed in their minds.
Although the ancestral precepts say that they will always be loyal to the Holy City, but the Holy City no longer exists, then naturally there is no question of loyalty or disloyalty.
But now a person suddenly appears, and this person may be from the Holy City, which is shocking.
"I didn't discover it, it was Ancestor Jiade who saw it..." So, Situ Xiong told the Cang Ancestor the news he got from Ancestor Situ Jiade.
"This Cheng Yu is actually just a mid-level Mahayana man?" Hearing Situ Xiong say that Cheng Yu defeated Situ Jiade just by relying on his mid-level Mahayana realm, he was shocked.
Although he has a very noble status in the current Situ family, he doesn't know much about the Holy City. Most of it is known from the inherited classics.
He only knew that the Holy City was previously controlled by the Holy Clan, and most of them had several Souls, especially the Lord of the Holy City, who had six Souls.
However, he didn't know how strong they were, but now from Situ Xiong's narrative, he seemed to have a new understanding of the Holy Clan. No wonder the Holy City was the master of the world back then.
Think about it, a person in the middle stage of Mahayana is more terrifying than the ancestor who has been practicing for thousands of years in the Tribulation Stage, and it is said that the realm of the city lord of the Holy City had already surpassed that of the late stage of Mahayana.
As for whether he is a Loose Immortal or a Tribulation Stage, it is unknown, but no matter what state he is in, judging from the situation described by Situ Xiong, the strength of the Lord of the Holy City back then was probably enough to kill an Immortal easily. .
Of course, slaying an immortal may sound a bit unrealistic now. Firstly, there are no immortals in the mortal world to kill you. Secondly, if the immortals really come, their strength will definitely not be the opponent of the immortals.
But in the inheritance classics, there are many stories about slaying immortals. Among other things, let’s talk about the Immortal in the Mirror that everyone is most familiar with. Didn’t she kill immortals?
Therefore, as the city lord of the Holy City, killing immortals does not seem to be a big deal.
Moreover, Cheng Yu can defeat or even kill masters in the Tribulation Stage now. Maybe he can kill immortals by the time he reaches the late Mahayana stage.
If he had some doubts about Cheng Yu's identity before, now that he understands this, he is sure that this Cheng Yu is definitely a member of the Holy Clan!
"Yes, it is indeed the middle stage of Mahayana. Jiade Patriarch has already confirmed it!" Situ Xiong said.
The ancient ancestor didn't speak anymore, but he was lost in thought alone!
"Ancestor, according to the contents of the inherited classics, now that the Holy City has appeared, do we really want to regard the Holy City as our master?" Situ Xiong said with some embarrassment.
Although their Situ family is not the most powerful force in the world of cultivation now, they still have a place in this world.
Although the dynasty has the ability to destroy the Situ family, under the premise of conflict of interests, their dynasty is definitely not willing to destroy the Situ family in a big way, which does not mean anything to him.
Therefore, the nine aristocratic families are living quite well here now. Why should they listen to a force that even they themselves do not understand?
"But our ancestors have already taught us their legacy, how can we violate it?" The ancient ancestor's emotions were also somewhat complicated.
It has been like this for who knows how many thousands of years. In all these years, the Situ family has not encountered the appearance of the Holy City again, but they did not expect that such a thing would happen to him in his generation.
How should he decide this?
I think back then, the world respected the Holy City as the main one. That was because the Holy City was too powerful and everyone had no choice.
But the world is no longer what it was back then. Nowadays, the dynasty occupies most of the world of cultivation. It is not an exaggeration to say that the dynasty covers the sky with one hand.
Although the members of the Saint Clan have shown up, their strength is so great. How many people are left in the Saint Clan? They didn't know any of this. To say that under such circumstances, it would be too irresponsible for the Situ family to continue to serve the Holy City as their main priority.
But if they don't regard the Holy City as their main thing, then they are violating the instructions of their ancestors, which is disrespectful. If his ancestors in the immortal world find out, how will he face his ancestors when he ascends to the immortal world in the future?
Thinking of this, he felt particularly depressed. Why did such an unfortunate thing happen to him?
"Ancestor, I think our ancestors of the Situ family were forced to write this ancestral precept for future generations because of the intimidation of the Holy City at that time, right? However, the once Holy City is no longer there. Even if the Holy City is resurrected now, it seems that it will not It may no longer be comparable to the holy city of the past.
If we follow the instructions of our ancestors and rashly regard the current Holy City as our master, we may bring disaster to the Situ family.
I think no matter how good our ancestors are, it is impossible not to think about our descendants, right? Therefore, even if we no longer regard the Holy City as our main focus, I believe our ancestors will not blame us! "Situ Xiong said.
"Yeah! What you said makes sense. The Holy City was destroyed in the rebellion, which is the general trend of the world. Nowadays, most of the forces in the world are under the control of the dynasty.
If the Holy City wants to make a comeback, it must compete with the dynasty. If we are loyal to the Holy City, we may become the vanguard of the attack on the dynasty, and then we will be the sinners of the Situ family.
So let’s not spread this matter for the time being, but you must always pay attention to the movements of the Holy City. Once anything happens, you must report it to me as soon as possible! "The ancient ancestor thought for a while and said.
"Yes! However, the relationship between Cheng Yu and the Chen family is a bit complicated now. I don't know what the situation is, which makes me a little worried!" Situ Xiong said.
"Tell me!"
"Now the Chen family has a new head, but this new head is said to be very close to Cheng Yu. I am a little worried that the Chen family is now controlled by Cheng Yu. It is also possible that the Chen family already knows that Cheng Yu is a saint. They have taken the lead to join Cheng Yu!" Situ Xiong said worriedly!
