The silver moon hung high in the night sky. Faint moonlight scattered down from the night sky like a huge silver veil that covered the entire Xiao clan.
Xiao Yan was seated on the top floor of the pavilion. Both of his eyes were tightly shut. Both of his hands formed a seal and formed a training seal. Following the circulation of his breathing, threads of energy that were visible to the naked eye drifted out from the surrounding empty space. Finally, following his breathing, the energy continuously entered his body.
It was a long while later before the energy drifting around his body gradually slowed down. Xiao Yan's eyelashes trembled slightly. A moment later, he opened his eyes and exhaled the turbid air that had been suppressed in his chest. His entire body had also recovered to its peak state in an instant.
Although the continuous journey and the battle with Xiao Chuhang today did not consume too much of his strength, it still caused him to feel even more exhausted. Only at this moment did his originally dark yellow complexion once again recover its rosy color. His pair of eyes seemed to be wrapped in a layer of faint warm jade in the dark night, and it was rather strange.
"Hu … Xiao clan, I hope that we will not disappoint the choice of our ancestor."
A glint flashed across Xiao Yan's eyes as he muttered in a somewhat dense tone. Immediately, he lifted his head and looked at the dark sky in front of him.
High up in the night sky, the stars were boundless. A bright moon hung in the horizon, emitting a bright moonlight. Although it was night time, the scene on the ground below could be seen clearly. Although it was not as bright as daytime, there was a different feeling to it.
Xiao Yan was a little absent-minded as he looked at the night sky. In a trance, those stars seemed to outline a peerless beauty that could topple a country. Her curving smile caused one to have endless fanciful thoughts.
"Xun Er …"
Memories of the past continuously flashed across his mind. Everything that had happened in the past seemed to have happened yesterday.
However, Xiao Yan did not dare to imagine Xun Er's current situation. He was afraid that the longing in his heart would cause everything to turn into the most brutal killing intent in an instant.
"Ghost Palace, it is all your fault. Also …"
As dense killing intent surged in his heart, Xiao Yan suddenly flipped his palm. A palm-sized, emerald green ancient jade appeared in Xiao Yan's palm. It was the Tou She Ancient God's Jade!
Both of his eyes stared at the ancient jade in his palm. The hatred in Xiao Yan's heart grew even denser. His five curled fingers wished that he could crush the ancient jade. In the end, all of this happened because of this!
"Sigh …"
After a long while, Xiao Yan finally sighed with a bitter face. With a flip of his palm, he once again stored the ancient jade into his Storage ring.
No matter how much resentment he had in his heart, the Tou She was his most important bargaining chip to save Xun Er.......... any impulse..............
After being quiet for a moment, Xiao Yan shook his head violently. He threw out the distracting thoughts in his heart and once again entered his cultivation state.
Currently, the Ghost Gate was still a rather distant existence to him. Rather than being deeply worried about this, it was better to focus all of his thoughts on how to raise his own strength. That was the most important thing.
Even if he wanted to save someone, the prerequisite was that he needed to have sufficient strength to support it.
.....
The next day, when Xiao Yan walked down from the pavilion, Bai Hua and Lian Er, who were surrounding the table in the hall, immediately shot their gazes over. Both parties looked at each other and smiled. Immediately after, a wave of light footsteps in the courtyard outside the door attracted the gazes of the three people.
When the three of them looked over, the person who had arrived was Xiao Mingyuan.
"Third Elder!"
Xiao Yan hurriedly stepped forward and bowed. Behind him, Bai Hua and Lian Er followed closely behind.
"Haha, little fellow, we meet again. I believe that you are already aware of the matter that the clan leader announced yesterday, right?"
Xiao Mingyuan chuckled as he swept his gaze over the three people in front of him. There was no need to say much about Xiao Yan in front of him. However, after sweeping his gaze over Bai Hua and Lian Er behind him, his eyebrows twitched. A surprised expression involuntarily surfaced in his old eyes. Fortunately, he did not reveal too much of it.
Xiao Yan smiled and nodded when he heard this. Soon after, he saw Xiao Mingyuan take off a Storage Ring from his finger and handed it over.
"This is your monthly allowance. Other than this month's allowance, there are also all of the monthly allowances for the past two years. As for the rest, you can count them yourself."
Looking at the Storage Ring in front of him, Xiao Yan received it without any hesitation. If it was yesterday, he would definitely not accept it so easily. However, since he was already willing to join the Xiao clan, this monthly allowance should belong to him. Naturally, there was no need to hesitate.
The expression in Xiao Mingyuan's eyes immediately brightened when he saw this. He more or less understood Xiao Yan's character. Xiao Yan did not open his mouth to agree to the powerful invitation of the Xiao clan yesterday. Naturally, it was impossible for him to happily accept this little monthly allowance. It was likely that something had happened last night. Xiao Mingyuan's heart immediately thought of Xiao Xuan.
"That's right, where is Xiao Xuan? He doesn't seem to be here."
Given Xiao Mingyuan's current cultivation, he had already sensed that Xiao Xuan was not here when he entered the pavilion.
"Ancestor went to the back mountain to train."
A light flashed in Xiao Yan's eyes as he said nonchalantly.
Although it was called training, it was actually to refine the last half fragment of the Origin Returning Art. If his luck was not bad, perhaps Xiao Xuan's cultivation would be able to step into the Origin Sect after he finished refining this half fragment. At that time, Xiao Yan wanted to see what kind of expression those arrogant elders of the Xiao clan would have on their faces.
"Oh, is that so? Yesterday, I saw the might of his two types of Grand Dao Energy, and I'm still unsatisfied. I originally wanted to spar with him and perhaps he would be able to provide me with some guidance in the Grand Dao Energy. But since it's like this, then forget it."
The old man smiled mockingly as he looked at the stunned expressions on the faces of the three people in front of him. Soon after, his tone changed and he said again, "Oh, right.
Since you are staying in the clan now, perhaps you can try to participate in the clan gathering in half a year's time. The clan gathering includes the best of the younger generation in most of the clans. Although it may not be attractive to you, the rewards of the gathering are quite tempting. First place will receive twenty top-grade spirit stones! "
At the end of his words, Xiao Mingyuan's tone was deliberately a little more serious, and the so-called reward for first place unsurprisingly caused the expressions of the three people in front of him to instantly change.
"Twenty top-grade spirit stones …"
The corner of Xiao Yan's eyes twitched involuntarily when he heard these words. He recalled that back then, he had borrowed the two top tier spirit stones that Xiao Jin had given him to raise his cultivation by three stars. One could imagine just what kind of enormous amount of training resources these twenty top tier spirit stones were!
