The next day.
When the first rays of the morning sun sprinkled down from the sky, Saint Gold City, which had been silent for an entire night, was once again bustling with noise and excitement. Outside Saint Gold City, countless people swarmed towards the city like ants. At the center of the city was a huge plaza, where three giant stone platforms had been built. Mysterious runes were carved into the stone platforms, forming three large-scale teleportation arrays.
A grade 7 large-scale teleportation array was vastly superior to the commonly seen grade 5 teleportation arrays in terms of both number of people and distance. In the entire Central Region, only the subordinate cities of the Central Region's major factions or some provincial cities possessed grade 7 teleportation arrays. The number of cities that possessed three grade 7 teleportation arrays could be counted on one's fingers. Even among the three great clans, only the Ouyang clan possessed one. Moreover, the Ouyang clan had placed the teleportation array in one of their subordinate cities.
Although the Ouyang clan's actions were extravagant, in the eyes of several factions, it was undoubtedly an arrogant or foolish act. After all, although placing a teleportation array in one's subordinate city would bring about considerable economic benefits, it would also bring about a potential crisis. In the event of an enemy attack, the teleportation array would give the enemy the best method to deal with it, making it the easiest choice whether to advance or retreat.
Fortunately, given the Ouyang clan's powerful foundation, such a thing was unlikely to happen.
As the teleportation arrays were activated one after another, more and more experts from various factions gathered in the city. Naturally, their strength could not be underestimated. Compared to the Origin Kings, who could dominate an area in the Southern Region, they were merely ordinary passersby in Golden Saint City. There were also quite a number of Origin Sect experts, and even Origin Venerate level experts …
When the morning sun poured into his room, Xiao Yan, who was seated on his bed, slowly opened his eyes. After a night of recuperation, the exhaustion from a month of traveling had been swept away, and he was in peak condition. The Genesis Qi in his body flowed like a torrent, and a feeling of abundant power filled his limbs and bones. It was as if his body would transform into a human-shaped machine with the slightest movement, destroying everything in front of him.
"Phew …"
A fire glow suddenly flashed across Xiao Yan's calm, dark-black eyes. He seemed to have already predicted what would happen today. A fighting intent leaped within his heart. After so many years, he wondered just what level the current Ouyang Miao had reached.
Jumping down from the bed, Xiao Yan slowly walked out of the room, only to see Bai Hua and Lian 'er already waiting in the courtyard.
"Are you leaving or … staying?"
The moment Xiao Yan appeared, Bai Hua could feel the abundant Genesis Qi circulating in his body. Coupled with Ouyang Miao's attitude yesterday, she naturally knew what would happen today.
"Of course. But before that, let's greet the owner first."
Xiao Yan pursed his lips and smiled. There was some confidence in his eyes. Upon seeing this, Bai Hua smiled and nodded. She gently patted Lian 'er, who was lying lazily on the stone table, and lifted her up. After which, the three of them walked out of the manor.
After leaving the manor, the trio saw Ou Yangming walking straight towards them. From the looks of it, he had also just arrived.
"Hehe, are the three of you leaving?"
Ou Yangming laughed heartily as he approached. Xiao Yan observed the aura in Ou Yangming's body and found that he was also at his peak. Although the two did not speak, they already understood each other's intentions.
"We are indeed leaving, but it seems that brother Ou Yangming hopes that I will stay."
"In my opinion, brother Xiao may not be in a hurry to leave."
The two of them looked at each other, and the look in their eyes became sharper and sharper. Even the space between them started to distort slightly. This scene also surprised the two guards in front of the courtyard.
In front of the manor, Xiao Yan turned his head to glance at Bai Hua and nodded. The latter immediately understood and retreated a certain distance with Lian 'er. Only then did Xiao Yan's gaze return to Ou Yangming. Flames surged in his eyes as he said in a chilling voice, "How do we fight?
How do we fight? "
"Haha, direct enough. Since that's the case, I won't hold you back. Same old rules, we'll decide the victor in a hundred rounds!"
As his laughter faded, Ouyang Miao stomped his foot on the ground and retreated a certain distance. As the battle intent on their faces intensified, the vigorous Genesis Qi in their bodies began to rapidly circulate. The two of them might not have to use their full strength, but it was destined to be a hearty battle. However, just as the atmosphere between the two grew increasingly tense, a faint chuckle suddenly interrupted the atmosphere.
"Hehe, brother Ou Yangming, it's been a while since we last met. Why are you suddenly in the mood to fight? Even if you want to fight, I should be your opponent. How can a mere two star Origin Sect be worthy of fighting you?"
The moment the chuckle was heard, the Xiao Yan duo immediately turned their gazes towards the source of the laughter. Xiao Yan frowned slightly, not very interested in Ou Yangming's words. At this moment, a look of disgust appeared on Ou Yangming's face, but it only lasted for an instant before he immediately withdrew it. The Genesis Qi that had leaked out from his body was also completely withdrawn. The four of them expressionlessly looked towards one side of the street.
Xiao Yan looked over and saw a young man in white robes smiling warmly at Ou Yangming. Although the young man's face was warm, his smile gave off a feminine aura no matter how one looked at it.
Behind the young man in white stood three elders. As Xiao Yan's gaze swept across the trio, the expression in his eyes involuntarily widened a little. The auras of the two elders at the back were not any weaker than first elder Luo Xiong of the Heavenly Cloud Villa. They were clearly two eight star Origin Sect experts. As for the elder standing at the front, when his gaze landed on the latter, Xiao Yan's heart violently shuddered.
"Origin Sovereign!"
This old man's appearance was scattered. Both of his hands were inserted into his sleeves. At a glance, he appeared no different from an ordinary old man. However, with his powerful Spiritual Perception, Xiao Yan was able to sense that this old man was definitely an expert whose cultivation had reached the Yuan Zun class!
The appearance of the young man in white instantly broke the atmosphere. The two guards at the entrance wore rather unhappy expressions when they saw the group of four. It was obvious that the young man in white did not have much of an impression in their eyes.
"Bai Ruoxuan, they are my guests. I hope that you can speak with some respect."
Ou Yangming's tone was a little heavy as he curled his lips.
As he spoke, Ou Yangming walked over to Xiao Yan's side and reminded him in a low voice, "Be careful of this guy.
"Be careful of this guy. He's from the Bai Clan. He's not a good person."
The moment Ou Yangming said this, Xiao Yan immediately raised his eyebrows and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes. The one who could make Ou Yangming warn him in such a manner was naturally the Bai clan, which was also one of the three great clans.
Xiao Yan's eyes were surprised as he looked at this group of people in front of him. His heart was filled with surprise. His aim for coming to the Middle Region was to head to the Xiao clan. It was unexpected that he had already met the members of these two large clans before he had even met the members of the Xiao clan. Moreover, according to what Luo Ao had said back then, the Mysterious Jade Ruler seemed to be in the Bai clan …
It was also at this moment that a strange movement suddenly came from Xiao Yan's Storage Ring …
