Chapter 1642: The secret of the Chu family, the former Chu Clan Imperial Clan, declined because of the Yun Clan Imperial Clan

After the great battle ended, the Qingyang World also returned to peace.

And the Chu family behind Chu Xiao was undoubtedly the number one family in the Qingyang World.

However, everyone knew

that no matter how strong the Chu family was in the Qingyang World,

it still had an unreachable distance from the Dantai Imperial Clan, one of the Ancient Eight Clans.

Or rather, there was no comparability between the two at all.

And at this moment, in the Chu family, in a cave heaven and blessed land,

Chu Xiao was sitting cross-legged, breathing in and out the heaven and earth spiritual energy.

His eyes held determination.

He must catch up with Dantai Qingxuan's footsteps.

At the same time, he also wanted to let that arrogant Dantai Imperial Clan know

that he, Chu Xiao, was definitely not some ant,

but a true dragon destined to soar into the nine heavens.

In Chu Xiao's hand, the Qiankun Gourd, carved like jade, was floating up and down.

Vaguely, a very special aura was permeating.

Just as Chu Xiao was about to use the Qiankun Gourd to cultivate,

a voice came from outside this cave heaven and blessed land.

"Xiao'er..."

"Father."

Chu Xiao looked over, and a middle-aged man walked in.

It was Chu Xiao's father.

"Father, what is the matter?" Chu Xiao asked.

Chu Xiao's father pondered for a while, his eyes seeming to hold a hint of hesitation.

But in the end, he still spoke.

"Xiao'er, do you like that girl Qingxuan very much?"

"That is natural." Chu Xiao said.

"Actually, Father has one thing I have never told you."

Chu Xiao's father's tone carried hesitation, and he sighed.

"Father, what is it?"

Chu Xiao frowned.

"Xiao'er, you are indeed very excellent."

"Our Chu family was originally just an ordinary noble family in a small country."

"And now, we have become a big family in the entire Qingyang World."

"But, Xiao'er, our Chu family is actually not that simple." Chu Xiao's father said.

"Father, what exactly do you want to say?" Chu Xiao's brows furrowed.

Vaguely, he felt that his father seemed to want to say something earth-shattering.

"What if I said that your background originally shouldn't be weaker than that girl Qingxuan?" Chu Xiao's father suddenly said.

"What?" Chu Xiao's heart shook.

His gaze carried a hint of surprise as he looked at his father.

"Actually, according to the records in our Chu family's ancestral register, our current Chu family is a branch of the Chu family from the distant past."

"And that Chu family from the distant past had another name, which is..."

"Chu Clan Imperial Clan!"

Chu Xiao's father's words made Chu Xiao feel a bit dazed, standing there.

His mind was like thunder roaring.

Their Chu family was a branch of the Chu Clan Imperial Clan from the distant past?

"Father, what exactly is going on?"

"Chu Clan Imperial Clan, but... there is no Chu Clan Imperial Clan among the eight great Imperial Clans now?"

Chu Xiao was truly confused.

After Dantai Qingxuan left, he had even deliberately investigated the news about the so-called eight great Imperial Clans.

The more he investigated, the more desperate he felt.

The Ancient Eight Clans were almost like overlords in the Boundary Sea world.

Yet now, his father told him that they were originally born from the Chu Clan Imperial Clan.

"Indeed, there is no Chu Clan Imperial Clan among the eight great Imperial Clans now, because..."

"My Chu Clan Imperial Clan fell apart in the distant past."

"As for the reason for falling apart, it is not recorded very clearly; there might be multiple reasons."

"But among them, one very important reason is that the ancestors of my Chu Clan Imperial Clan once participated in a vast battle against the Black Calamity."

"It was in that battle that the most powerful batch of ancestors of my Chu Clan Imperial Clan fell."

"That might be one of the root causes that led to the decline of my Chu Clan Imperial Clan."

Chu Xiao's father said this, and a hint of hatred flashed in his eyes.

"Then... was it the Black Calamity race that caused the ancestors to fall?" Chu Xiao asked.

"No..."

Chu Xiao's father said this, his gaze fixed, looking at Chu Xiao.

"According to the records, the reason for the ancestors' fall had a lot to do with an Imperial Clan."

"Which Imperial Clan?" Chu Xiao asked.

"Yun Clan Imperial Clan!"

Chu Xiao's father said word by word.

"Yun Clan Imperial Clan..."

Chu Xiao's lips trembled.

He had investigated the news about the eight great Imperial Clans before.

And according to the news,

the eight great Imperial Clans all had boundless foundations, and there was no essential difference in strength between them.

But there were still some differences in strength between Imperial Clans.

And the Yun Clan Imperial Clan was rumored to be one of the top existences among the eight great Imperial Clans.

Even...

vaguely considered by some factions to be the head of the eight great Imperial Clans, the most prosperous Imperial Clan.

It was also the existence that held the bull's ear.

Of course, this was just some views of other factions.

But from this, one could see that the Yun Clan Imperial Clan, even among the eight great Imperial Clans, was an absolutely top-tier existence.

And the reason for the destruction of their Chu Clan Imperial Clan was actually related to the Yun Clan Imperial Clan.

This was absolutely beyond Chu Xiao's expectations.

"But, why would the Yun Clan Imperial Clan attack my Chu Clan Imperial Clan?" Chu Xiao still had questions.

Chu Xiao's father said in a deep tone,

"That doesn't need to be asked; according to the records, when the Ancient Eight Clans—no... it should be among the Ancient Nine Clans—"

"my Chu Clan Imperial Clan was among the top, one of the best."

"That Yun Clan Imperial Clan had extreme ambition and wanted to become the strongest among the nine great Imperial Clans, so they secretly framed the ancestors of my Chu Clan Imperial Clan."

"After the ancestors of my Chu Clan Imperial Clan fell, the clan's fortune went from bad to worse."

"Instead, the Yun Clan Imperial Clan took the opportunity to rise, and now you know the prosperity of the Yun Clan Imperial Clan."

Chu Xiao's father's tone carried coldness.

Although their Chu family could only be considered an inconspicuous branch of the Chu Clan Imperial Clan at the beginning,

they ultimately had the bloodline of the Chu Clan Imperial Clan flowing in their bodies.

"It turned out to be like this..." Chu Xiao murmured to himself.

He did not go to distinguish whether what his father said was right or wrong.

Since it was recorded, it should be correct.

And such distant deeds, Chu Xiao could not verify them.

"I didn't tell you before because our Chu family didn't have the ability."

"And I didn't want to give you too much pressure."

"But now, you have become the Lord of the Qingyang World and are qualified to know these secrets." Chu Xiao's father said.

"Originally, my background should be the same as Qingxuan's..."

Chu Xiao's fists slowly tightened.

He also understood why he had such luck.

Besides the supreme treasure of the Qiankun Gourd,

he himself originally had the bloodline of an Imperial Clan.

"So Xiao'er, in terms of bloodline origin, you are actually not worse than that girl Qingxuan."

"It's just a pity that my Chu Clan Imperial Clan has declined." Chu Xiao's father sighed.

Chu Xiao took a deep breath and said, "Father, this child understands."

"Qingxuan is the wife I have determined, and even if the Dantai Imperial Clan stops me, I will bring her back."

"And the Yun Clan Imperial Clan..." Chu Xiao's eyes narrowed slightly, carrying a coldness.

"Xiao'er, don't be impulsive; the Yun Clan Imperial Clan is definitely not something you can deal with." Chu Xiao's father's heart shook.

Let alone Chu Xiao alone,

even if the once-prosperous Chu Clan Imperial Clan reappeared, they would not dare to say they could be enemies with the Yun Clan Imperial Clan.

After all, the Yun Clan Imperial Clan hid too deeply, and their foundation was unfathomable.

"Father, this child understands; this child will not be so impulsive." Chu Xiao smiled slightly.

Next, after some conversation, Chu Xiao's father also left.

The entire cave heaven and blessed land was left with only Chu Xiao.

He raised his hand, and the Qiankun Gourd flowed with a strange halo.

"If not for this treasure, I might really not be able to bring back Qingxuan, and avenge the Chu Clan Imperial Clan."

"But with it, I definitely have hope!" ===== CHAPTER 1643 =====
