Under the quiet night sky, Xiao Yan's body lazily lay on the roof. The emotions in his heart were somewhat complicated.
Xiao Yan's gaze looked at the deep night sky. His recent encounters during this period of time repeatedly replayed in his mind. This was especially the case when he recalled the intimate relationship between Lian Er and Huo Xin during the day. Xiao Yan's deep memory of a white-colored long dress and delicate body involuntarily surfaced.
"Little Fairy Doctor …"
Once the memories in the depths of one's heart were dug out, it was difficult to hide them. He muttered softly over and over again. The days when the girl in a white dress accompanied him became increasingly clear in Xiao Yan's mind. Even though many years had passed, it still felt like yesterday when he recalled it.
From the inconspicuous small town at the foot of the mountain to the continent of experts where heroes stood side by side, the girl had no regrets no matter how many dangers she encountered along the way. Even when he came to this foreign continent alone, she still forcefully broke through the barrier and evened out the distance between them by an entire world. However, in the end …
"Sigh …"
Xiao Yan could not help but sigh heavily as he recalled the battle at the Tian Yun Villa. A ripple surfaced in his eyes, which had been bloodied for many years. His heart was filled with endless self-blame and guilt. If it were not for him back then, that girl would not have ended up in such a miserable state.
When he thought of the Du E Sect and Xu Zhen, endless murderous intent surged into his head. He clenched his teeth tightly, causing them to emit a creaking sound. Even the night sky before him began to distort due to his rage. Distorted cracks began to spread out.
It was a long while before Xiao Yan's emotions slowly calmed down. He deeply inhaled a few mouthfuls of cold air before exhaling deeply. He closed his eyes and recalled. Today, when he learned that Xiao Xuan was in charge of the Xiao clan's cabinet, an impulse had emerged in his heart …
If he could borrow the foundation of the Xiao clan to take revenge for the Little Fairy Doctor, there was no need for him to wait any longer. Xiao Yan's heart was filled with impatience when he thought of being able to kill Wu Du, Xu Zhen, and the others. Even his breathing had become a little hurried. However, in the end, he violently shook his head and forcefully removed this thought from his heart.
The Little Fairy Doctor had died for him. No matter how one put it, Xiao Yan could only personally take revenge for the Little Fairy Doctor. There would also come a day when he would take revenge for all the debts he had with the Du Ai Sect!
As this thought rose in his mind, Xu Zhen's figure slowly flashed in the depths of Xiao Yan's eyes. His hands, which had just relaxed, suddenly clenched into fists again.
The next day.
The Xiao clan, which had been quiet for a period of time, had once again become lively. This was because the geniuses of the Xiao clan, who rarely showed themselves, had gathered together early this morning. Moreover, all of them were heading in the same direction. Their grand and mighty manner was quite imposing. Even some of the elders in the clan could not help but cast their gazes over.
Xiao Yan was flipping through the Storage Ring that originally belonged to Bai Sheng in a bored manner within the main hall. After searching for a while, even he could not help but complain on behalf of Bai Sheng. Other than a small number of tier 7 medicinal pills, there was not even a single high class Qi Method or Dou Technique in the Storage Ring of this eight star origin sect. Even the highest level Dou Technique was merely at the low Yi class. Xiao Yan could not even be bothered to take a look at the rest.
However, while Xiao Yan was fiddling with the Storage Ring, a withered wooden cylinder in the Storage Ring piqued his interest. This was because from what he could see, the material of the withered wooden cylinder was surprisingly the Fire Banyan Tree.
The Fire Banyan Tree was unique to the Flowing Fire Plains. Its deterrent force was renowned throughout the entire Middle Region. What could be so extravagant as to use the Fire Banyan Tree to store it?
Xiao Yan took out the wooden cylinder out of curiosity. The moment it entered his hand, a warm feeling was transmitted into his palm. At the same time, Huo Xing, who was seated opposite him, also cast his gaze toward the wooden cylinder in Xiao Yan's hand. He immediately frowned slightly as he swiftly thought of something in his mind.
Xiao Yan also sized up the wooden cylinder at this moment. After confirming that there were no restrictions on it, he carefully opened the cover on the side of the wooden cylinder. A wave of heat surged out the moment the cover was opened. Xiao Yan tilted his head slightly and looked at the interior of the wooden cylinder. Upon closer inspection, it appeared to be a scroll. When Xiao Yan took it out, the golden words on it immediately caused his eyes to brighten.
"Earth Spirit Quenching Flame Pill."
The instant Xiao Yan's gaze landed on the scroll, Huo Xing seemed to have thought of something and suddenly opened his mouth.
"Do you recognize this thing?"
Seeing Huo Xing call out the pill formula at a glance, Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows slightly. He then weighed the scroll in his hand and asked curiously.
Hearing this, Huo Xing nodded slightly and continued to speak.
"This pill formula was created by the ancestors of my Fire Banyan Tribe. However, it was lost many years ago. I didn't expect to have the opportunity to see it today."
Surprise surfaced on Xiao Yan's face when he heard these words. He did not hesitate as he placed the scroll back into the wooden cylinder. He gently raised his hand and handed it over to Huo Xing under the support of an invisible force. He smiled and said, "Brother Huo Xing.
"Since this pill formula is a relic of the Fire Banyan Tribe and I have coincidentally met you, it can be considered as returning to its original owner."
However, in this regard, Huo Xing shook his head with a smile and pushed it back. He shrugged helplessly and said, "Don't worry.
"You're more suitable. I'm not an alchemist. If this pill formula falls into my hands, it'll only be a useless scroll. If you really want to return it, why don't you wait until you've refined the pills on the scroll and give me a few? It'll be more worth it."
"Hahaha …"
Hearing these words, the three of them couldn't help but laugh. Huo Xing's plan was more practical and impressive than obtaining a pill formula.
At this moment, before the laughter of the three people in the hall faded, Huo Xin hurriedly ran in with a flustered expression. The laughter of the three people in the hall also came to an abrupt stop.
"Senior Xiao Yan, it's not good. There are so many people who suddenly barged in from outside!"
The young girl's exclamation sounded. Xiao Yan and the other two's expressions changed slightly. The former frowned and looked at Bai Hua as he asked in a deep voice.
"Could it be Xiao Dingtian?"
As his voice fell, a series of footsteps sounded from outside the door. After that, a familiar clear laughter sounded from the courtyard.
"Haha, cousin Xiao Yan, why didn't you inform us that you were coming back? For the past two years, we have been hoping that you would return as soon as possible."
As the laughter was transmitted, a group of familiar figures quickly appeared in front of the door of the living room. Xiao Yan was also slightly startled when he saw the lineup in front of him. A warm smile immediately surged onto his face as he said,
"So it's you guys."
At this moment, this group of people who had come to Xiao Yan's door were the members of the younger generation who had come into contact with Xiao Yan back in the Xiao clan. With Xiao Shao Jun at the lead, Xiao Lei, Xiao Zhuobin, and the others were all present. Even Xiao Tian, who had always been at odds with Xiao Yan, had appeared.
