But Ye Xiao shook his head.
"Nothing, I just feel like my head hurts, ancestor."
"Headache? Are you hiding something from me, kid?" Hearing Ye Xiao's answer, the old shadowy figure looked furious. He wanted to get angry, but in the end, he took a deep breath, understanding the situation.
"Well, that..." Ye Xiao wanted to retort, but the old shadowy figure cut him off.
"Son, there's no need to make excuses. Everyone has secrets, including you. Since you don't want to tell me, there's no need to say any more. Besides, my time is running out. You've received the blood sword, and your future depends on you." The figure, who was none other than the remnant soul of the Ye family ancestor, spoke in a deep voice. He realized that Le Zan didn't want to reveal his secret, nor did he intend to find out. The most important thing was that Ye Xiao had accepted what he had left behind. As the words ended, the old shadowy figure slowly faded away.
"Now I'm certain, you are indeed the remnant soul of my ancestor. Thank you for the gift." Watching the old shadow slowly disappear, Ye Xiao cupped his hands in salute. He was now certain that the shadow was none other than the remnant soul sealed by his ancestor in the stone.
"Damn you...ah..." The Ye family ancestor's remnant soul cursed in his final words, but then his voice faded completely, accompanied by the old shadow's disappearance. How could he not be annoyed? He had explained at length, and only now, when the time was up, did Ye Xiao say that he now believed he was the shadow of his long-deceased ancestor.
"Hehe..." Hearing that final curse, Ye Xiao smiled and scratched his head, regretting why he had only just become so sure about the Ye family ancestor. Otherwise, wouldn't he have been able to glean so much information from the remnant soul? But looking at the blood sword in his hand, Ye Xiao smiled with satisfaction. He hadn't just gained a profit this time, but it had truly been a huge one.
In his hand was a blood sword, and with this blood sword, he could control the entire Ye family. Indeed, the current situation perfectly matched Ye Xiao's experience. Furthermore, Ye Fan was no longer at the Ye family residence but had already left for the Sacred Immortal Sect.
But Ye Xiao wasn't in a hurry. He had found this place of origin to hide for a while and stabilize his strength. After that, he planned to return to the Ye family residence.
Whether Ye Xiao would seek revenge afterward was still undecided.
After confirming that the old shadowy figure, the remnant soul of the Ye family ancestor, had truly disappeared, Ye Xiao began to find a position and sit cross-legged. Besides stabilizing his strength, he also wanted to communicate more with the blood sword.
At this moment, Ye Xiao's soul began to ask the blood sword.
"Please explain everything to me. What do you mean by 'we meet again?'" Ye Xiao said with a serious expression, staring at the blood sword in his hand.
"Sir, you are a descendant of your ancestor. Essentially, I met the same person. Isn't that also called a reunion?" At this time the blood sword spirit also answered Ye Xiao's question.
Hmmm...
"Haven't you been with the remains of my ancestor's soul all this time? I don't think you're telling the truth." Ye Xiao said feeling doubtful about the blood sword spirit's answer.
"No, what does remnant soul mean, it's just a remnant soul, whereas you, your aura and blood are very similar to your ancestors, so that the first time, I felt like we had met again." the blood sword spirit explained again.
But... Ye Xiao still couldn't believe the blood sword spirit's words.
"Why do I feel like you're not telling me the truth?"
"No, of course I'm telling the truth."
Both Ye Xiao and the blood sword spirit argued for a moment, and in the end, Ye Xiao dropped the topic and changed the subject.
"What can you do? Are you a very powerful sword?" Ye Xiao asked.
"What can I do? My master is a graded heirloom weapon, and the higher my grade, the stronger I become. Especially my special ability: I can control the blood I've absorbed. Do you understand?" The blood sword spirit briefly explained itself to Ye Xiao.
"A graded heirloom weapon? Controlling the blood I've absorbed?" Hearing these two words, Ye Xiao felt this blood sword sounded quite extraordinary.
"Yes, master..."
"Is it extraordinary?" Ye Xiao asked again.
"Of course it is extraordinary," the blood sword spirit replied again with a voice full of pride.
"Then how can I use you?" Ye Xiao began to ask the point. No matter how powerful and powerful a weapon is, if you can't use it, it's meaningless.
"Master, the first thing we need to do is establish a soul contract. With a soul contract, you will be able to use this blood sword to its full potential," the blood sword spirit said excitedly.
Hmmm...
Hearing all the blood sword spirit's words, Ye Xiao naturally understood the blood sword spirit's true feelings. Therefore, although Ye Xiao felt that the blood sword spirit's words, saying that he could use the blood sword sounded extraordinary, Ye Xiao still had doubts. He always felt the blood sword spirit was hiding something, making it difficult for Ye Xiao to believe its words.
Seeing the hesitation on Ye Xiao's face, the blood sword spirit spoke again.
"Master, there's no need to worry. I have no intention of serving you, so you don't need to hesitate," the blood sword spirit continued to reassure Ye Xiao.
But the more the blood sword spirit said that, the more Ye Xiao was doubted whether he should make a soul contract with this blood sword.
What if this was a trick of the blood sword spirit, after all Ye Xiao had never done a soul contract and he didn't know how to do it, if he was instigated and followed this sword spirit's wishes, wouldn't he be in danger?
