The next day.
After instructing the Little Fairy Doctor and the others, Xiao Yan left the Burning Flame Valley alone and quickly flew towards the north-west direction. Li Bingrui wanted to follow but was stopped by Lian 'er. After interacting with each other for a few days, what was surprising was that Li Bingrui had some tender feelings for this girl. When the two of them interacted, they could actually see a rare smile on Li Bingrui's unchanging ice-cold face.
Compared to the past, Xiao Yan rushed to the south-west border much faster this time. In a short few days, Xiao Yan's figure had already appeared in the Liu Cang City that they had passed by on their way to the Extreme South. After catching up with the Liu family's old man for a while, he continued to rush towards the south-west border. This time, Xiao Yan's goal was the Ancient City of Savage Desolation.
Looking at Xiao Yan's departing figure, Liu Ya's turbid old eyes had some inexplicable regret. Back then, he did not take the opportunity to befriend Xiao Yan. Who would have thought that in a short three years, Xiao Yan had actually grown to such a level and even formed a relationship with the once strongest faction in the Extreme South, the Burning Flame Valley. That's right, it was in the past. The current Burning Flame Valley, under the combined suppression of the two great sects, was no longer as strong as before. It had already fallen from its position as the overlord of the Extreme South.
However, a starving camel was still bigger than a horse. Moreover, the two sects and the Burning Flame Valley had yet to fight and everything was still unknown. Therefore, it was not too late to choose a side now.
"Changsheng, it seems that it's time for my Liu family to make a choice."
.....
After Xiao Yan left the Liu Cang City, in a short few hours, the once familiar ancient city once again appeared in his sight.
"Ancient City of Savage Desolation. I've finally arrived!"
Arriving outside the Ancient City of Savage Desolation, the once familiar faces involuntarily appeared in Xiao Yan's mind. Now that he thought about it, he felt that things had remained the same but people had changed.
A moment later, Xiao Yan's figure was already standing outside the Alchemist Guild. Although he had yet to enter, Xiao Yan had already clearly detected two extremely familiar auras with his current enormous Spiritual Strength. They were the auras of Gu Li and Chi Lin.
After not seeing each other for many years, the cultivation of these two people had already reached the Origin Transformation realm. In the south-west border, they could be considered as extremely strong...... Of course, they had also improved their alchemy skills that they were so proud of....................................................................................................................................
At the same time. Gu Li and Chi Lin sensed their auras in the guild. They also sensed something. Of course, if Xiao Yan purposefully hid it, they would not have sensed it. However, there was no need for that.
"May I know which senior has graced my Alchemist Guild with your presence? I hope senior can forgive me for being late in welcoming you!"
Soon after, a couple of human figures successively appeared in front of Xiao Yan on the street outside of the Alchemist Association. The moment they appeared, their faces were respectful as they bowed and greeted the person in front of them. This scene also caused all the passersby on the street to cast sidelong glances at them. The few people who had appeared on the street at this moment were all people who were rarely seen in the Alchemist Association. It was unexpected that they would actually appear together at this moment and even display such a humble attitude. This involuntarily caused everyone's gazes to gather on the black-robed, young man standing in front of them in an instant.
"Haha, both chairmen, it has been many years since we last met. How have you been?"
Soon after, an inexplicably familiar clear laughter was transmitted into the ears of Gu Li and Chi Lin. This voice caused the two of them to be inexplicably startled. However, soon after, a figure that they could not forget quietly surfaced in the depths of their minds. At the same time, the bodies of the two chairmen involuntarily trembled as they slowly lifted their heads. After which, a familiar face slowly merged with the figure that had surfaced in their minds at this moment.
"You … you are … Xiao …"
"Xiao Yan!"
"Chairman Gu Li, has everything been well during these years?"
Xiao Yan smiled warmly. He took two steps forward and gently waved his large sleeves. The few people in front of him were supported by an invisible force. Immediately, the expressions in the eyes of the few people present changed. The eyes of the two rank four alchemists behind him contained shock.
"Hahaha, good, good. Everything is good!"
"On the other hand, ever since you left, you have not come back to visit us. I thought that you had forgotten about us two old bones."
Seeing that the person in front of them was actually Xiao Yan, the two old men could not help but reveal a pleasantly surprised expression. As they spoke, their emotions became even more excited. The two alchemists behind them looked at the young Xiao Yan in front of them and could not help but be shocked in their hearts. They often heard the two chairmen mention that the Xiao Yan, whose name now shook the Southern Region, was once the chief alchemist of their Alchemist Association. They did not believe it, but now that they saw it, they could not help but have the slightest doubt.
Hearing the words of the two in front of him, Xiao Yan could only smile embarrassedly. Honestly speaking, ever since he returned to the Southern Region, he had been constantly troubled by various matters and it was very difficult for him to find the time. Even if he returned to the Savage Ancient City now, it was still because of the battle between the Burning Flame Valley and the two sects. This was something that Xiao Yan was unable to explain.
After both sides caught up for a while, the two elders originally wanted to invite Xiao Yan into the association to discuss in detail, but in the end, they were still rejected by Xiao Yan. When they saw the helpless expression on Xiao Yan's face, the two of them finally felt relieved. After all, they had heard a lot about the Burning Flame Valley. They were not in the situation, so it was naturally difficult for them to understand the meaning behind it.
After bidding farewell to the two elders, Xiao Yan went to the Yunyin Pavilion to see Elder Xuan. After another simple reminiscence, Xiao Yan arrived at the final destination of his trip to the Savage Ancient City, the small courtyard in the south of the city.
This was the place where Luo Ao had temporarily stayed. Although Luo Ao had now returned to the Central Region, there were still some people who remained here, or rather, in another world.
The Ginseng Spirit Tribe!
Although Luo Ao had left, he could not bring them with him. The Ginseng Spirit Tribe had been in seclusion for many years and would not easily return to the Central Region.
Relying on the jade tablet in his hand, Xiao Yan once again opened the entrance to the Ginseng Spirit World. Soon after, he lifted his foot and stepped in.
In the vast world, when a certain space suddenly distorted, Qing Mu, who was in the depths of the mountain forest, instantly sensed the change.
Before Luo Ao left, he had clearly told him about the approximate time he would return. However, it was a little too early now. Moreover, that aura did not belong to the Luo Ao that he was familiar with. Could it be …
"Enemy attack?!"
Other than Luo Ao who had a special jade tablet that allowed him to enter the Ginseng Spirit World, no one else could enter the Ginseng Spirit World so easily. Other than that, the only other way was to force his way in. This meant that an expert from the outside world had discovered the Ginseng Spirit Tribe's location and was planning to invade!
Qing Mu's heart trembled, and his expression changed drastically. He quickly sent out a signal. Shortly after, several rays of light shot up into the sky from the depths of the Ginseng Spirit World. After counting them, there were 32 pillars of light standing between the heavens and the earth. Those were the 32 Spiritual Guards of the Ginseng Spirit Tribe!
However, when Qing Mu and the thirty-two Spiritual Guards stood at the entrance where the energy fluctuation had occurred, a young man wearing a black robe slowly appeared in front of their tensed expressions.
"Uh … we haven't seen each other for a long time. Is there a need to make such a big fuss?"
Looking at the angry gazes in front of him, Xiao Yan, who had just appeared, could not help but freeze. He could not help but feel a little scared. Then, he smiled embarrassedly and put on an innocent expression. However, this scene instantly petrified all the Ginseng Spirit Tribe members present.
