Tianyang City was one of the three largest subordinate cities of the Xiao clan. At the same time, it was also the last transit point for Xiao Yan to head to the Xiao clan. Once he reached this place, he would truly arrive at the territory of the Xiao clan.
Xiao Yan looked at the human flow in front of him, which was clearly much sparser compared to Holy Gold City. He involuntarily sighed in his heart. Although they were both part of the three great clans, the gap between them was completely revealed at this moment. Forget about everything else. Even in the entire Xiao clan, it seemed that this Tian Yang City was the only place that possessed a rank 7 transportation formation.
"Ugh …"
Xiao Yan let out an inexplicable sigh. Soon after, his eyes scanned his surroundings and landed on an old man in linen robes.
The old man was seated on an independent stone platform. His face was sallow and his old eyes were tightly shut. His entire body was as still as a stone statue. If it were not for his steady breathing, he would have been mistaken for a dead person. Just like Saint Gold City, this old man was in charge of controlling the operation of the teleportation array.
Xiao Yan smiled slightly. He led Bai Hua by the side and took a couple of steps forward. He respectfully bowed to the old man before immediately speaking in a respectful manner.
May I ask elder to tell me where the Xiao clan is? "
Although the three of them had already arrived at the territory of the Xiao clan, the map that they had brought did not clearly indicate the exact location of the Xiao clan. Even the locations of the other super factions were not clearly marked. As for Tianyang City, it was also impossible to determine the location of the Xiao clan based on the few wide streets. Hence, Xiao Yan could only seek help from others.
At this moment, when the old man heard Xiao Yan's words, his originally tightly shut eyes slowly opened. His eyes were a little strange as he sized up the three people in front of him. Immediately, a glint flashed across his eyes and a tinge of surprise flashed across them. After which, he withdrew his gaze and said indifferently,
"Three little children, why are you here at the Xiao clan?"
"I have a friend who is a member of the Xiao clan. I have come here to look for him. I hope that elder can lead the way."
Xiao Yan smiled sincerely and said respectfully.
"Looking for a friend? What's his name? Maybe this old man can help you call him out. "
The old man looked at Xiao Yan with disdain and spoke in a casual tone.
"It's just a nameless junior. There's no need to trouble senior. I'll go find him myself."
"Heh, kid, do you really think that this old man is easy to fool? Your cultivation has already stepped into the Origin Ancestor realm. With such talent, even if that friend of yours is weak, how weak can he be? How could he be some nameless nobody?"
Upon hearing this, the old man softly chuckled. His eyebrows slightly lowered as a powerful invisible pressure immediately enveloped Xiao Yan and Bai Hua's heads. As for Lian 'er, the old man did not seem to have any intention of pressuring her.
Xiao Yan's expression instantly changed when the pressure descended. His body immediately sank and an exclamation was emitted from his heart at this moment.
"This is … soul power!"
Xiao Yan's pupils abruptly shrank as he felt the pressure akin to a meteor falling from the sky on his shoulder. He could not help but feel a wave of horror in his heart. This was the first time he had encountered such a terrifying Spirit pressure ever since he came to the Yuanwu Continent!
"Tell me, what is your purpose in coming to the Xiao clan?"
The old man calmly looked at the two individuals who were bent over as he spoke in an indifferent tone. At the same time, the Spirit pressure exerted on the two grew even heavier.
"Elder … you misunderstand. The three of us are here to look for an old friend!"
Xiao Yan tightly clenched his teeth. Genesis Qi frantically circulated in his body as Spirit power gushed out from between his brows like a tide. It shrouded the space above the two individuals in an attempt to block the old man's Spirit pressure.
"Eh?"
The old man let out a surprised soft 'huh' in his heart as he ignored the words that were spat out from Xiao Yan's mouth. At the same time, a smile flashed across the corner of his mouth without anyone noticing. Although Xiao Yan's method did not achieve any substantial effect, it was likely that only those few brats from the Pill Tower among the younger generation in the Middle Region possessed such a Spiritual Strength. However, in comparison, Xiao Yan in front of him lacked the support of an external force. Just this point alone was sufficient to cause the old man to raise his eyebrows.
Secretly nodding his head, the old man slowly withdrew the soul pressure he released after a while. His face was still indifferent, and his tone was slightly contemptuous as he laughed, then he said,
"Fine, I'll let you in. This old man wants to see just how big of a storm three little kids can cause."
After speaking, he flicked his finger. A stream of light shot out and pointed towards the northern horizon. That was the answer Xiao Yan's group needed.
Xiao Yan hurriedly led the two people by his side to once again respectfully bow to the old man when he saw this scene. The old man was too lazy to bother with them. Instead, his eyes leaped and looked at the transportation formation on the stone platform. The group of people who had already become impatient from waiting. Without his control, the transportation formation no longer functioned. These people could only wait with anxious faces while their mouths occasionally cursed. The old man's face was filled with disdain. After Xiao Yan's group turned around and left, he suddenly waved his sleeves. A golden light immediately rose from the enormous transportation formation. The noise disappeared in the blink of an eye. Even the square had become much quieter.
As he gazed in the direction that the Xiao Yan trio had left, a satisfied smile involuntarily appeared on the old man's face. Soon after, he muttered to himself.
"Xiao Yan … not bad little fellow. The future of the Xiao clan will depend on you youngsters. I only hope … that you won't repeat the mistakes of your ancestor."
Towards the end, a regretful expression involuntarily appeared in the old man's eyes …
On the other side, with the old man's guidance, Xiao Yan and the other two were slowly walking in the direction that the ray of light had shot towards. Although they knew the location of the Xiao clan, this was after all Tianyang City, a city that belonged to the Xiao clan. Naturally, there was still a distance from the Xiao clan's main sect. Rather than rushing over in a hurry, it was better to take a leisurely and carefree trip.
The two big men naturally did not pay attention to Xiao Yan as the three of them walked along the road. However, Lian Er, who had a lovely figure and a sweet and cute appearance, naturally attracted quite a number of somewhat heated gazes. This was especially the case when they noticed the grievance and weakness that Lian Er's pretty eyes revealed. The heated glow in their eyes became even more intense. Xiao Yan knit his brows slightly in the face of this. His gaze swept over the passersby who were repeatedly throwing their gazes over. A dense coldness suddenly flashed across his eyes. Immediately, it caused a dangerous chill to suddenly rise in the hearts of those people. They hurriedly withdrew their presumptuous gazes.
However, just as Xiao Yan was about to withdraw his gaze, an obscene gaze shot towards him. This caused him to instantly frown, and his icy cold gaze was thrown over.
