If I live forever, everyone thinks I am invincible

When Chen Changan saw the portraits the two people took out, he frowned. It really looked like himself.

Didn't they say that the Immortal Ancient Domain no longer had any plans? What was going on?

"Why do you have my portrait?"

"Left by our ancestors."

"Who are your ancestors? Why did you leave my portrait behind?"

"This...Senior, can you let me start from the beginning?"

"Well, I love listening to stories."

"Senior, please sit down."

"Yeah, not bad, sensible."

The two young men directly took out a few chairs and respectfully invited Chen Changan and the others to sit down.

It must be said that in terms of etiquette, it can be seen that they are doing very well.

"Senior, after the Immortal Ancient Domain was torn apart, this place was renamed the Tianqing Land."

"It's because there used to be a mountain here, Tianqing Mountain, where heaven and earth were connected."

"But one day, the Tianqing Mountain suddenly collapsed, and the Tianqing land was shaky and seemed to be falling."

"Without any help, our Hou family ancestors could only use themselves as a medium to replace Tianqing Mountain and become the cornerstone of Tianqing Land, so as to stabilize Tianqing Land and prevent it from falling."

It seems that the ancestor of the Hou family was indeed a character, and he should have been a very powerful person, otherwise he would not have been able to do this.

"and then?"

"Although our ancestors are powerful, our Hou family is not a super family. Our ancestors were orphans with no relatives. At that time, there were only two relatives: our ancestor's wife and son."

"However, the ancestor still has five disciples."

"Before doing this, the ancestor called five disciples to his side and told them that after the ancestor completed this task, his body would transform into five stone tablets."

"This stone tablet is used to stabilize the cornerstone of Tianqing Land. The five of them are needed to guard and protect it well. In addition, they must take good care of his descendants."

"But the ancestor only left a jade box for his son, and ordered that the jade box could only be opened when the Hou family was facing life and death."

"And what is placed in this jade box is your portrait and a letter."

"The ancestor knew that his actions back then would lead to his death, so he spent billions of years of his life to deduce and gain insight into the mysteries of heaven. This is how the portrait of you was created."

“But even though our ancestors paid such a huge price, they still couldn’t deduce more things. They could only vaguely know some sporadic information.”

"But one thing is certain, that is, you, the senior, can save our Hou family."

Spending billions of years of life to deduce? This price is indeed very high, even for the top powerhouses in the Immortal Realm.

Chen Changan guessed that the ancestor of the Hou family must have been a top-notch strongman, and the problems in the Tianqing land were largely due to the existence of this ancestor of the Hou family.

Just to kill the ancestor of the Hou family, some people do not allow a strong person of this level to exist here.

Therefore, no matter whether the ancestors of the Hou family did it or not, they would inevitably die.

"Your Hou family has fallen into decline now? Is it at the point of life and death? So you have been looking for me?"

"And the decline of your Hou family is related to those five disciples of your ancestors?"

"They...chose to betray?"

Hearing Chen Changan's words, the two younger generations of the Hou family shook their heads and said, "It can't be said to be a betrayal, it can only be said to be a violation of the promise made back then."

"In fact, at the beginning, these five disciples of our ancestors took great care of our Hou family."

"After our ancestors left, the five of them, together with our Hou family, became the six great families of Tianqing."

"It's just that our Hou family is more Buddhist and not particularly keen on expanding family power."

"Over time, it became the weakest of the six great families."

"But this didn't change anything. However, as some rumors spread in Tianqing Land, things slowly changed."

"Rumors? What rumors?"

"It is rumored in Tianqing that it was the other five great families who saved Tianqing, because each of them had stone tablets, but our Hou family did not."

"Therefore, the Hou family is not qualified to become one of the six great families."

"It doesn't matter if others think they are unqualified, but the problem is that as the other five great families slowly develop, they also think that our Hou family is unworthy."

"Especially after most of the older generation chose to go into seclusion, the descendants of the five great families began to take the Hou family less and less seriously."

“Although they did not actively suppress the Hou family, they allowed these rumors to spread openly or secretly, and never stood up and said a word.”

"All of them know who is the one who truly saved Tianqing Land. That is why they hope that the Hou family will fall even more."

"Because of this, they can always bear the good name of a savior."

"Even if someone from the Hou family came forward to tell the truth, would others believe the Hou family or these five families?"

"Our ancestors must have calculated all of this, which is why they left the jade box to the Hou family."

“But what I can’t understand is, since the ancestor knew all this, why did he leave the stone tablet to his five disciples.”

"If I hadn't done this, wouldn't the following things have happened?"

Seeing that the two people didn't understand, Chen Changan smiled and said, "Because your ancestors knew that they couldn't change it."

"Although the five great families have prospered because of the stone tablet, they have also attracted all the attention."

"Your Hou family is essentially not a group that is keen on dominating. All the members of your family are Buddhists, which means it is impossible for them to become too strong."

"Decline is the inevitable outcome. If all five stone tablets were in your Hou family, your Hou family would have ceased to exist long ago."

"The rumors back then were most likely spread deliberately by some members of the five great families in order to build momentum and to crush your Hou family so that they could not tell the truth."

"If I'm not mistaken, the five great families should have been secretly watching you all these years, and would not give your Hou family any chance to rise."

"Now, has your Hou family encountered some catastrophic disaster?"

"Logically speaking, they shouldn't completely wipe out your Hou family. After all, if they do, when the ancestors of the five great families, that is, the disciples of your ancestors, come out of seclusion one day, they won't have any way to explain themselves."

"So... it was the people below who acted on their own initiative, right?"

After hearing what Chen Changan said, the two young descendants of the Hou family were full of admiration. They actually guessed so many things so quickly.

"Yes, that's right."

“Senior, our ancestors once said that if you help the Hou family survive this disaster, the five stone tablets will be gifts from our ancestors to you.”

"These five stone tablets will be useful to you!"

it works?

"Your ancestors were really good at scheming!"
