Within the Liu clan's mansion in Liu Cang City, everyone's eyes were dull as they looked at Xiao Yan, who had sent Fu Yulong flying with one palm. Their eyes were filled with shock. It was difficult to imagine that Fu Yulong, who was currently an expert at the Source King level and had difficulty finding an opponent in the entire south-western border, would actually be sent flying with one palm by this young man in front of them. This was really too unbelievable.
Of course, others might not know, but Fu Yulong's and Liu Ya's hearts were clearly aware that this black-robed, young man in front of them was a renowned person within the southern region. It was rumored that he had relied on his own strength to kill the chief of the Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate during the battle between the two sects not long ago. He had even caused an expert from the Source Sect to end up seriously injured. Such a person, especially Fu Yulong, who had just advanced to the Source King class, could be considered extremely fortunate that he did not die after receiving a palm from Xiao Yan earlier.
"So, have you killed him?"
Beside Fu Yulong, Bai Hua faintly curled her lips at Xiao Yan as she indifferently asked.
Just as Xiao Yan was about to nod his head, Fu Yulong hastily crawled up from the ground in shock. He hurriedly bowed and apologised to Xiao Yan, his voice hurried as he said:
"Mister Xiao Yan, everything in the past was indeed Fu Yulong's fault. I should not have made an enemy out of you. I should never have touched anyone from the Liu family, nor should I have associated myself with the Heavenly Puppet Sect. However, I have now turned over a new leaf. What happened just now … was just a misunderstanding. I never imagined that the person Liu Ya was talking about was actually you. I hope that mister Xiao will be magnanimous and not take it to heart. As long as mister Xiao is willing to let me off, Fu Yulong will follow mister Xiao's lead from today onwards.
Mister Xiao … "" Alright, there's no need to say anymore. I can forget about this matter, and I can also not kill you. "
Hearing this fellow's endless words of redemption, Xiao Yan's heart really felt irritated. Originally, he did not intend to kill him. However, if this fellow continued to speak endlessly, it would really be hard to say what would happen.
As expected, this fellow immediately shut his mouth the moment Xiao Yan's words sounded. Bai Hua by the side also glanced at the latter with a face of disdain. He was at the very least a Yuan King, yet he was so spineless. He was really able to say anything in order to survive.
Upon hearing Xiao Yan's words, the fear in Fu Yulong's heart finally relaxed. As long as Xiao Yan did not kill him, everything else was naturally fine. To him, his life was more important than anything else. If face was really so important, Fu Yulong would not have easily listened to the Heavenly Puppet Sect's threats back then.
"I can spare your life, but you have to do something for me …"
Just as Fu Yulong was secretly rejoicing in his heart, Xiao Yan's words rang out once again. This caused the former's mind to shake as he hurriedly bowed and acknowledged. Xiao Yan ignored him and continued to speak.
"From today onwards, the Sea Cloud Palace will be under my command, and will be responsible for protecting the Liu clan of Qingyang City. If anything happens to the Liu clan …"
"If anything happens to the Liu clan, this subordinate is willing to pay with his life!"
This time, before Xiao Yan's words had sounded, Fu Yulong hurriedly agreed. Now was not the time for him to make a choice. His life was in Xiao Yan's hands, so whatever he wanted was naturally up to Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan was first taken aback when he heard this. Soon after, he smiled with satisfaction. This fellow was really straightforward, immediately acknowledging the relationship between the two of them. In this way, he might not need to worry about the Liu clan from today onwards. At the very most, he could talk to Ancestor Fen Tian about it when he returned, and there would be no more mishaps. The southern region could be considered safe.
"Remember your words. If anything happens to the Liu clan, you have to be careful of your life!"
Xiao Yan's somewhat dark and cold words caused Fu Yulong's expression to change once again. He hurriedly nodded his head respectfully. However, the former's tone immediately changed as he smiled.
"Of course, if your performance is appropriate, I will naturally remember it. I will refine a few pills for you in the future. Although I don't dare to say too much, it should not be a problem for you to reach the Origin King level."
Fu Yulong's heart immediately shook when he heard the two words' Origin King '. Joy involuntarily flashed across his eyes. At his age, being able to break through to the Origin King level was already his greatest wish. Now that this strength had not come easily, he originally had no desire to pursue a higher realm. However, when he heard Xiao Yan's words, hope immediately surged in his heart once again. At that moment, he did not dare to hesitate and hurriedly acknowledged Xiao Yan's words.
"Alright, let's end today's matter here. I still have things to do. As for this, there should be no need for me to say anything more, right?"
Xiao Yan slowly said as he glanced at Fu Yulong.
"This subordinate understands!"
Fu Yulong immediately replied respectfully when he heard this.
Xiao Yan nodded. Only then did he look at Liu Ya by the side. He smiled slightly and said,
"In that case, old mister, we will meet again next time."
Liu Ya smiled and cupped his hands together. Upon seeing this, Liu Ya also hurriedly cupped his hands together. The current Xiao Yan had already grown to a level that they could only look up to. How could he have imagined that the young man whose cultivation was similar to his three years ago would actually grow to such a level in just three years, to the point where he could even affect the situation of the entire Southern Region.
After which, Xiao Yan said a few more words to Fu Yulong. After the latter carefully noted it down, Xiao Yan's body moved, transforming into a black shadow as he once again shot into the sky. Behind him, the Little Fairy Doctor and the rest followed. In the blink of an eye, the group had once again disappeared before their eyes.
At the same spot, Liu Ya and Fu Yulong blankly stared at Xiao Yan's departing figure. In the end, they sighed and looked at each other with indifferent eyes. Soon after, Fu Yulong led his group of subordinates and swiftly left this place.
.....
While Xiao Yan's group was on the road back to the western region, a human figure was standing outside of a certain cave in the distant empty space to the north at this moment.
Suddenly, the space behind him suddenly distorted. Immediately, an old man in golden robes appeared behind this person.
When the old man appeared, the figure in front of him immediately discovered him. He immediately turned around and respectfully bowed to the old man.
"Clan leader."
"Yes, Long Lin. How long has that little fellow been in the Dragon Cave?"
Hearing this, the old man gently nodded his head. Immediately, his deep gaze landed on the cave in front of him. He could clearly sense that there was a young figure seated in the depths of this cave. That person was the greatest hope of his faction.
"Clan leader, he has already been in there for two years."
"Oh? Two years huh. In that case, that little fellow has made quite a lot of progress in the Dragon Cave. "
Hearing the words of the person in front of him, a look of surprise involuntarily flashed across the old man's deep eyes. In two years' time, he had forcefully crossed two levels. This was much more than what he had expected back then!
