Chapter 293 Returning to One's Ancestral Roots
Chapter 293 Returning to One's Ancestral Roots
Feeling!
There was no reason whatsoever.
It was simply a feeling.
Xu Nian could determine that the youth before him was from Longyu Mountain Xu Family.
Xu Nian took a deep breath and walked toward the youth.
"Are you Xu Nian?"
Sensing Xu Nian approach,
The youth then raised his head to look at Xu Nian and spoke indifferently.
Xu Nian unconsciously frowned.
The first words uttered by the youth left him discontent.
Not even a self-introduction, just an outright interrogation.
And the tone was so condescending, clearly not taking him seriously.
"Yes," Xu Nian responded indifferently, his tone equally dignified.
Upon hearing this, a slight smirk appeared on the youth's face.@@@@
It seemed he utterly scorned Xu Nian's dignified demeanor.
"You should have guessed my identity. I am Xu Fenn, a direct descendant of the Xu family, your mother is my aunt, and thus you are also my cousin," the youth said indifferently.
Xu Nian sneered inwardly.
Instantly, any positive feelings he might have had for this youth dropped to zero.
"Considered my cousin?"
Such a tone filled with disdain and mockery.
"So, what is your purpose here?" Xu Nian didn't want to interact much with the youth, so he got straight to the point.
Hearing this, the youth laughed.
"My purpose here is simple: to take you back to the Xu family to acknowledge your ancestors and return to your roots!"
The youth's tone turned arrogant, especially emphasizing the last four words as if acknowledging his roots was some glorious matter.
But Xu Nian just laughed.
Acknowledging roots?
The Xu family had never done anything to benefit him.
And now with his mother detained in the Heavenly Prison of the Xu family, they expected him to acknowledge his ancestors?
Wasn't that a joke?

"Why should I acknowledge my ancestors? Is it because if I do, the Xu family will release my mother?" Xu Nian asked Xu Fenn coldly.
What nonsense about acknowledging ancestors and returning to the clan?
What protection from the Xu Family?
It was all fabricated by Xu Fenn.
Perhaps the higher-ups in the Xu Family didn't even know Xu Fenn was here, though it might also be possible that they directed him.
Regardless, it was absolutely impossible for the Xu Family to get the Black Jade back.
This Black Jade was the only thing his mother left for him, and he would never let anyone else have it.
Besides, the Yetian God Emperor resided within the Black Jade.
How could Xu Nian possibly hand it over so easily?
"That piece of Black Jade was lost by me on the mountain two years ago; if you want to look for it, go to the hills behind Cloud Sea City!" Xu Nian answered straightforwardly.
He was telling the truth, the Black Jade had indeed been lost in the hills back then.
It was only that Murong Xue had found it and had since returned it to him.
"There's no proof in your word alone, hand over your storage ring, and after I check it and if nothing is there, I will return it to you." Xu Fenn said coldly.
Xu Nian's eyebrows furrowed instantly.
A storage ring wasn't something to be inspected upon demand.
Every person's storage ring contained many secrets and treasures, and unless one was dead, they would never allow others to probe it.
For example, in Xu Nian's storage ring was a bead from the Chen Family Ancestral Land; it was a supreme treasure.
Even Xu Family could not produce such a treasure.
Xu Fenn might be tempted if he saw it.
"It's impossible, I won't let you inspect the storage ring, and if you don't believe me, there's nothing else I can do. Goodbye!" Xu Nian turned and walked away.
"Hmph, to me, you seem guilty of theft, and today if you do not hand over the Black Jade, do not think about leaving." The young man coldly snorted, then stretched a hand to strike towards Xu Nian from behind.
His palm was infused with powerful Spiritual Energy.
Xu Nian sensed the fierce energy coming from behind.
Without any hesitation, he immediately performed the Luotian Palm, striking back with a palm.
"Boom!"
Terrifying Spiritual Energy scattered, exploding all the tables and chairs around.
The doors and windows also shattered in a moment.
Both were blown away by the force.
Xu Nian stumbled back three steps before stabilizing his stance.
And Xu Fenn also took a step back.
He looked at Xu Nian with a face full of surprise.
He hadn't expected Xu Nian to be able to withstand his palm.
