Xie Ke felt a chill in his heart, yet before he could speak a word,
he saw Jixia walk forward, at first silent, as he took incense and offered his condolences, ignoring the numerous Xie Clan members in the hall as if they were nothing.
After bowing, he pressed his lips together, a complex emotion flickering in his eyes, silently gazing at the coffin before him, where Xie Qiaoxuan lay, for a long time. Without looking back, he suddenly said:
"Everyone, are you dissatisfied with my inheritance of Elder Xie Qiaoxuan's Primordial Pill?"
Although there wasn't even a hint of anger in his words,
when the Xie Clan members of the Black Mountain Xiefu, including the master Xie Ke, exchanged glances:
"This..."
No one dared to reply!
"Is this 'Brother Xie Ke'?"
"I am Jixia. Before Elder Xie Qiaoxuan left, he accepted me into the Xie Family."
"Whether you acknowledge it or not doesn't matter."
"But I am determined to ensure he 'returns to his roots and rests in peace'."
