"Sect master? The sect master of the Myriad Scorpion Sect? "
Xiao Yan immediately raised an eyebrow when he heard Che Fu's words. He immediately thought of Mao Xun, who had just left the Fang family.
"Is it because of Mao Xun?"
If Mao Xun had reported the news about him, it would make sense for the Myriad Scorpion Sect to send people to kill him. However …
"That shouldn't be the case. The Fang family is within the territory of the Burning Flame Valley. The three sects are extremely far from each other. Even if he's a late Returnance expert, it's impossible for him to make it back to the Myriad Scorpion Sect in just a few days, not to mention that this person has already chased him all the way here."
Luo Jin shook his head and directly rejected Xiao Yan's guess. At the same time, Xiao Yan nodded with a frown. He had thought of this as well, but why did Che Fu want to kill him if that was the case?
Xiao Yan's group had never come across anyone from the Myriad Scorpion Sect along the way, so it was impossible for them to come into conflict with them. There was even less reason for them to kill him. Yet now, not only did the Myriad Scorpion Sect want to kill Xiao Yan, they had even specially sent a Origin King to kill him. This was just unbelievable.
"Why does your sect master want to kill me?"
Xiao Yan knit his brows tightly. He did not believe that a calamity would descend from the sky without any reason. Even though he was one of the three great sects of the Southern Region, it was impossible for him to randomly attack a stranger. Even if it was for the 'Heavenly Flame' in his hand, he should at least give a reason, right?
"I don't know. I'm only responsible for killing you. I don't care about the reason."
Che Fu was currently under Xiao Xuan's control, so he obviously could not break free in a short amount of time. However, he calmed down very quickly, as if he knew how terrifying Xiao Xuan was. Even if he tried to struggle, it would be pointless. Instead of wasting his energy, it would be better for him to relax and recover.
Although they were both Origin Monarchs, it wasn't that easy for Xiao Xuan to kill him. Xiao Xuan wouldn't have been able to control him so easily if they had really gone all out.
After asking for a long time, Xiao Yan was actually unable to get anything useful out of him. In the end, he sighed helplessly. From the looks of the current situation, Ma Fu really did not know the reason behind this. As for the Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate, the other party gritted his teeth and refused to answer regardless of how Xiao Xuan pressured him. Even if he said something that they already knew, it was completely irrelevant.
"Damn it, what should we do now? This fellow refuses to speak no matter what. If there's no other way, we might as well just kill him."
Even if he couldn't get any information about the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect from a Yuan King, killing him would still be a huge loss to the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect.
For a powerful sect, the stronger the cultivation of a sect member, the more important and precious they were. Even the loss of one would cause the strength of the entire sect to drop significantly. If Ma Fu died, the overall strength of the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect would definitely drop by a level, which wasn't a bad thing for Xiao Yan.
However, Xiao Xuan helplessly shook his head when he heard Xiao Yan's words. His hand slowly relaxed, and Ma Fu, who was trapped by the Heaven Imprisoning Formation, was immediately freed. The Genesis Qi in his body began to circulate rapidly again.
"Ancestor, what are you doing …"
Xiao Yan's expression changed when he saw Xiao Xuan release the formation on Ma Fu's body. He involuntarily took a step back, and Genesis Qi immediately gushed out from his body as he cautiously stared at Ma Fu.
"Let him go."
Xiao Xuan had no intention of stopping him. He gently pressed his hand on Xiao Yan's shoulder and nodded at him. When Xiao Yan noticed Xiao Xuan's gaze, he withdrew the Genesis Qi he had released even though he was unwilling.
Since Xiao Xuan had said so, it was naturally even more impossible for him to kill Ma Fu.
"What's your name?"
Ma Fu ignored Xiao Yan and shifted his gaze to Xiao Xuan. Among these people, only Xiao Xuan could make him pay attention.
"Xiao Xuan."
Xiao Xuan pursed his lips into a smile. The calmness on his face made him look even more like an expert.
Such a person was bound to become a true expert, an expert who could shake a region and command the wind and clouds.
"I'll remember that today's battle isn't over yet."
"I think so too."
"Why haven't you mastered the power of the Great Dao?"
This was what puzzled Ma Fu the most. Xiao Xuan was clearly not an ordinary person. With such talent, logically speaking, he should have mastered the power of the Great Dao. But in the previous battle, there wasn't even the slightest trace of the power of the Great Dao.
Xiao Xuan smiled in a noncommittal manner and did not say anything else.
Seeing that Xiao Xuan didn't want to say more, Ma Fu nodded, and then his gaze fell on Xiao Yan. The latter instantly understood the meaning in his eyes.
"Xiao Yan."
Ma Fu imitated Xiao Xuan's tone and replied. Ma Fu was taken aback. His gaze swept between the two people in front of him, and as if he had discovered something, he muttered their names twice before turning around and flying towards the southern sky.
It wasn't until Ma Fu's figure disappeared from their sight that the last trace of worry in the group's hearts dissipated. Then, their gazes involuntarily converged on Xiao Xuan.
It wasn't that they had never seen an expert at the Origin King Realm, but it was the first time they had seen a soul with such strength. Most importantly, this person was actually related to Xiao Yan.
"Haha, little guy, not bad. I haven't seen you for a while, but your cultivation hasn't fallen at all. Although this speed isn't fast, it's solid. This will definitely benefit you in the future."
Retracting his gaze, Xiao Xuan once again sized up Xiao Yan. After sensing the latter's current cultivation, a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes.
Hearing this, Xiao Yan chuckled. Then, he seemed to have thought of something and hurriedly said,
"Ancestor, has your Soul Power completely recovered?"
"Haha, not only has it recovered, but it's even stronger than before. The current me, in their words, is roughly equivalent to a five-star Origin King …"
The faces of Xiao Yan's group immediately revealed a shocked expression when his words reached this point. A five star Origin King. This was much stronger than the clan head of the Fang clan, Fang Chi. In this way, their group would have nothing to fear as they traversed the southern region.
Seeing this, Xiao Xuan smiled slyly and continued,
"Apart from that, my Soul Power has also reached rank seven."
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions on the faces of Xiao Yan and the others instantly froze. Even the expression on Luo Jin's face was gradually replaced by deep shock.
Seven Realms' Soul Power, coupled with the formation he had displayed earlier, meant that while being a five-star Origin King, the current Xiao Xuan was also a rank seven formation master!
