As the energy storm in the arena scattered, everyone's gazes looked at Xiao Yan and Qin Yan in the arena. Their pale-white faces, tattered robes, and unkempt appearance caused these people to think that they were beggars if they had not seen them with their own eyes.
Soon after, the gazes of everyone present shifted once again as they searched for the Valley Master of the Burning Flame Valley, who had stopped all of this from happening.
He had resolved an earth-shaking energy storm with a single move. The cultivation of an advanced Origin Zong expert was truly terrifying. At this moment, everyone present was eager to meet the strongest person in the Southern Region.
Just as everyone present was sweeping their gazes in all directions, the space in front of Li Chengxu suddenly distorted. Soon after, a white-haired old man wearing a fiery red robe slowly appeared.
"Valley Master, you have returned!"
Li Chengxu hurriedly cupped his hands towards the person in front of him upon seeing this. His face was filled with respect. Behind him, the other elders of the Burning Flame Valley hurried over. They stood behind Li Chengxu and respectfully bowed.
"Yes."
The old man replied and gently waved his hand. The group of elders behind him withdrew, leaving only Li Chengxu behind.
"Haha, First Elder, it seems that quite a number of new stars have appeared in the Burning Flame Valley during the days that I was not around."
The old man smiled with satisfaction. He did not take the previous matter to heart. After Li Chengxu hurriedly apologized, he recounted everything that had happened in the past few days to the person in front of him. When the latter heard this, other than a smile, he would occasionally reveal a surprised expression. Even though it was only for a short period of time, it was enough to reveal the fluctuation in his heart.
"Yes, a 'Heavenly Flame' huh. Indeed, I have also sensed it. However … why is it in the body of this brat called Xiao Yan …"
The Valley Master gently nodded his head as his gaze slowly landed on Xiao Yan's body. However, what caused him to be somewhat surprised was that there seemed to be a somewhat foreign yet familiar fellow within Xiao Yan's body. Unfortunately, that feeling was too vague, causing him to be unable to identify it.
"There's another soul in his body. It has the cultivation of King Yuan and is a Level Seven Array Master."
Hearing the valley master's words, Li Chengxu hurriedly told him everything he knew. However, the valley master's thoughts didn't seem to be there. He only responded after a long while. At the same time, Xiao Yan's soul trembled in shock in the depths of Xiao Yan's body. He couldn't control his emotions. He had never thought that he would meet his old friend here.
"Ancestor, what happened?"
Xiao Yan's heart was immediately somewhat surprised when he sensed the fluctuation of the aura within his body. Xiao Xuan had always been calm. It was difficult for anything to cause a fluctuation in his heart. However, at this moment, the appearance of the Valley Chief of the Burning Flame Valley had actually caused him to be so shocked.
Regarding this point, Xiao Yan did not dare to make bold guesses.
"How could it be him?!"
It was a long while later before Xiao Xuan's trembling voice was once again transmitted into Xiao Yan's mind. The trace of excitement and disbelief in his voice had already fully expressed his current feelings.
The expression in Xiao Yan's eyes suddenly paused the moment he heard this. His gaze instantly locked onto the valley master of the Burning Flame Valley in the sky. Following which, he spoke in a somewhat doubtful manner, one word at a time.
"Ancestor, the person you speak of is …"
"The valley master of the Burning Flame Valley, Ancestor Fen Tian!"
"Ancestor Fen Tian!"
Luo Jin arrived beside Xiao Yan at basically the same time as Xiao Xuan spat out these words. The words that came out of his mouth were actually the same as Xiao Xuan's.
"Fen … Ancestor Fen Tian?!"
Xiao Yan's eyes instantly shrunk when these words were uttered. His eyes were filled with disbelief as he stared at the old man in the sky. It was difficult to imagine that he would actually meet this person, who seemed to be a distant legend, in this kind of place. In other words, the suspicions and guesses that he had in his heart for a long time might be true.
Ancestor Fen Tian was the founder of the Burning Flame Valley on the Dou Qi continent. He was also one of the peak experts on the Dou Qi continent during that era. He had an especially good relationship with one of the eight ancient clans, the Xiao clan. At that time, he and the clan leader of the Xiao clan had both broken through to the Dou Di class. Finally, they disappeared from the Dou Qi continent together. It was unexpected that they would actually meet him here …
Xiao Xuan was the grandson of the clan leader of the Xiao clan back then. When he was young, he had even been hugged by this ancestor. Now, however …
"Ancestor, since this is the case, should we go …"
"Don't be impatient. There are currently many people outside. It is still not the time for many things. Moreover, finding the 'Core Body Transforming Milk' is the most important thing right now. Let's leave the other matters for later."
Xiao Yan was just about to say something when he was immediately stopped by Xiao Xuan.
Things changed with the passage of time. People would always change. Xiao Xuan's caution at this moment was also a form of protection for Xiao Yan.
Luo Jin by the side frowned slightly as he stared at the old man in the sky. He was aware of the latter's identity and the other party naturally understood him as well. Back then, Luo Jin's father had personally come to exchange for the 'Core Body Transforming Milk' on his behalf. Ancestor Fen Tian was clearly aware of this son of his.
"Little fellow, it has been many years since we last met. You have already grown up. Your cultivation is also not inferior."
At this moment, Ancestor Fen Tian's body slowly appeared in front of Luo Jin and Xiao Yan. He had just appeared when he looked at Luo Jin. His smile was filled with praise. There were not many people on the continent who knew about the matter of the Yunyin Pavilion. However, he was one of them.
"Elder, it has been many years since we last met. Your body has become much stronger than before."
Luo Jin smiled when he heard this. His words were filled with flattery.
"Heh, little fellow, you really know how to flatter. You were only a few years old when I first met you. Can you still remember my appearance back then?"
Ancestor Fen Tian did not give him any face. The moment these words were spoken, it caused Xiao Yan to laugh. He hurriedly bowed towards the old man in front of him, who had quite a deep relationship with him.
"Junior Xiao Yan greets elder!"
"Yes, I have heard about your matter. However, I'm afraid that my Burning Flame Valley is unable to take out the thing that you want!"
Ancestor Fen Tian nodded. He inhaled a deep breath of air. His somewhat hoarse voice also contained some helplessness.
The production of the 'Core Body Milk' had sharply decreased over the years. Until this year, it was no longer possible to take out a single drop. Forget about satisfying Xiao Yan's needs, even within his Burning Flame Valley, no one was able to obtain a single drop.
The expression of Luo Jin by the side immediately changed when these words were spoken. Even Qin Yan, who had walked forward, could not help but pause his footsteps. He was already aware of Xiao Yan's matter. However, he did not expect that the two of them would not be able to achieve their goal after the battle. This was really like using a bamboo basket to draw water.
However, just as Ancestor Fen Tian was feeling helpless and regretful, a glint flashed across Xiao Yan's eyes. He said:
"Elder, do you know the reason behind this?"
Ancestor Fen Tian was a little surprised when these words were spoken. His pair of deep old eyes immediately landed on Xiao Yan's body. Luo Jin and Qin Yan by the side also faintly revealed their gazes.
"You know?"
Xiao Yan smiled in a non-committal manner when he heard Ancestor Fen Tian's question.
"Although I am not completely confident, I can roughly guess what exactly happened."
