Our path has ended; the Xu Zu’s lineage must be passed on. Perhaps this, too, is longevity. Perhaps this, too, is eternity.” Xu Jinchao murmured softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, he seemed to have aged decades; the merciless passage of time had finally etched itself upon this Great Master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The torch passes from hand to hand, unceasingly—perhaps the Xu Zu’s lineage will flourish through him.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a sigh, Xu Jinchao slowly withdrew his gaze from Xu Jiuliuy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If anyone reveals even a word of today’s events, they are no longer a disciple of the Xu family—expelled from the clan, their Nascent Soul destroyed.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, Xu Jinchao’s voice rang out again, carrying a tone of authority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone trembled inwardly but dared not defy him; they quickly bowed and replied, “We humbly obey the clan leader’s decree.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Also, from today onward, I am no longer the Xu family’s clan leader.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At these words, a murmur erupted; all faces turned pale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially Xu Changshou, standing among the crowd, was utterly stunned—he had merely returned to pay respects to his ancestors and rejoin the clan; how had it come to this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What now?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jinchao turned to face Xu Xuanguan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the strongest here and the victor, he held the right to decide whether this matter ended.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I entrust the Xu family to you…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If I had intended to stay, I would never have left the Xu family back then.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Xuanguan shook his head; at his level, achievements, fame, fortune, clan ties—even the Xu Zu’s lineage—meant nothing to him anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You take it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saying this, Xu Xuanguan turned to Xu Xuanxiao, who opened his mouth but said nothing, his expression complicated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two brothers had not seen each other in sixty years; now that Xu Xuanguan had returned, he still refused to call him “elder brother.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Xuanxiao sighed inwardly but said nothing more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew that Xu Xuanguan had suffered greatly in his youth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Born into the Pure Yang Xu family, Xu Xuanguan’s childhood temperament had been wildly unorthodox, reclusive, and strange; few in the clan wished to draw near him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the elder brother, Xu Xuanxiao had been extremely strict with him—perhaps too harsh—and thus the rift between them was born.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In truth, with a temperament like Xu Xuanguan’s, only the monsters of the Coffin-Bearing Society could possibly reach his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, those monsters were not normal people either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Birds of a feather flock together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Xu family was never suited for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let it be.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Xuanguan said casually, then turned to Xu Jinchao: “Let’s talk—I have questions for you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At these words, everyone’s expressions turned strange.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aside from Xu family matters, Xu Xuanguan and Xu Jinchao had no personal connection, barely even crossed paths.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Someone like him had few friends in the Xu family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright,” Xu Jinchao nodded. “Follow me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned and walked away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Guan…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, a soft call came from the side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jinshi stepped forward, his narrowed eyes revealing a knowing glint, fixed intently on Xu Xuanguan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Xuanguan glanced at him and offered a rare smile.\u003C\u002Fp>",1059,"2026-06-19T21:05:46.332Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","c76061d127979884fb39a35a475c1aa7063f0621ce67a857fe828a00ffb46a78","pure-yang-chapter-472","pure-yang-chapter-470",520,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fpure-yang-cover.jpg"]
