Western Region, Lengcui City.
Inside the Yunyin Pavilion.
Half a year had passed since that big battle. During this half a year, Xiao Yan had been in a slumber. Although the injuries on his body had already recovered by ninety percent, Xiao Yan still did not show any signs of waking up.
In the Yunyin Pavilion, Luo Jin and Zhang Yi frowned as they looked at Xiao Yan, who was lying on a special stone bed. Their eyes revealed a hint of worry.
They did not expect Xiao Yan to be so seriously injured this time. Half a year had passed, but he showed no signs of waking up. They did not know how long he would remain in this state.
In this half a year, Elder Luo had gone back and forth many times. However, every time he saw Xiao Yan in this state, he could only shake his head helplessly. After observing him for a few days, he returned to the Southern Region.
Following Xiao Yan's deep sleep, the news about Xiao Yan in the outside world gradually calmed down. There were even many people who thought that perhaps after the great battle, Xiao Yan's injuries were too serious and could not be cured.
As this new news spread, it immediately caused a commotion in the Western Region.
Most people were certain of this answer. After all, a Dou Di was a Dou Di. How could a mere Half-martial Emperor fight against him so easily? Moreover, Xiao Yan was only a Five-star Half-martial Emperor. This was even more unreasonable.
Of course, there were also some people who still believed that Xiao Yan was still alive. However, in comparison, these people were much fewer. After all, theoretically speaking, the above explanation was not wrong. However, they still thought that perhaps Xiao Yan was not dead and had only left the Western Region.
Of course, these were not important. What was important was that all news about Xiao Yan had disappeared with the wind in this vast Western Region.
However, it seemed that there were always some people who did not want Xiao Yan's name to fade away. Of course, more of them had other intentions.
After Xiao Yan's deep sleep for half a year, the Western Region, which had gradually calmed down, suddenly spread another shocking news. Once this news spread, Xiao Yan's name once again resounded in the Western Region.
"If anyone sees Xiao Yan and reports the location of his appearance or captures him alive, as long as he is still alive and is brought to any of the four large sects, the four large sects will give a reward."
One of the rewards included was twelve Emperor Grade Medicinal Pills. As for the other rewards, there was no lack of Cultivation Methods or Dou Skills. they were all shocking treasures that would make people go crazy.
Although they did not know whether the news was true or false, when the crowd saw that the four great sects did not give a definite response, everyone immediately understood. Therefore, the Western Region, which had just calmed down not long ago, was once again in turmoil.
Xiao Yan's name once again resounded in every corner of the Western Region.
As if to ensure that someone would be able to find Xiao Yan, after this news spread, many pieces of paper with Xiao Yan's face swiftly flew out from unknown corners. This also allowed everyone to have a clear understanding of Xiao Yan's appearance.
Of course, although this was the case, these pieces of paper were only passed around in some of the larger cities. As for some of the smaller towns and cities, no one paid any attention to them.
As for Leng Cui City, it was the largest city in the south-western border. It was also a large city with a Teleportation Formation. However, not a single piece of news related to Xiao Yan was transmitted from this place. This was because this place was the territory of the Hidden Cloud Pavilion. Even the four large sects were blacklisted in this place. How could news of Xiao Yan be transmitted to this place?
"Young Master, the Xilin Region has been in turmoil recently!"
After the two of them left the pavilion, Zhang Yi frowned and said softly to Luo Jin.
As Xiao Yan was injured and needed to recuperate, the Yunyin Pavilion had already announced its closure half a year ago. Hence, other than Xiao Yan in the pavilion, there was no one on the other five floors of the Yunyin Pavilion. There was no need to worry about outsiders when they spoke.
"Hmph, the Four Great Sects, these fellows still haven't given up. Even now, they're still thinking about the Sky Extinction Step. If it weren't for the fact that Fifth Grandfather forbade me from sending people, I would have destroyed all of you long ago!"
When the four great sects were mentioned, Luo Jin immediately felt a deep chill in his heart. Now that half a year had passed, although the injuries on his body had already healed, the killing intent in his heart towards the four great sects had gradually deepened.
Especially now that Xiao Yan was still in a coma, this only increased Luo Jin's killing intent. However, due to Luo Ao, there was nothing he could do. Even if the Four Great Sects were openly hunting down Xiao Yan, there was nothing he could do.
Luo Jin understood that it wasn't that Luo Ao couldn't destroy the Four Great Sects, but that he didn't want Luo Jin to always live under his protection. What Luo Ao wanted to see was Luo Jin's own growth. He wanted Luo Jin to have his own pursuits and goals.
If it had been in the past, when Luo Jin wandered around and obtained what he needed with his own strength, Luo Ao might have praised him. However, ever since Luo Ao met Xiao Yan, his attitude towards disciplining this junior of his had changed.
Xiao Yan's fighting spirit was something that was rarely displayed by people from the younger generation like them. Of course, it was not that there were none who were similar. However, most of them were weak and their hearts were filled with arrogance, but they did not have the strength to back it up. They appeared to be disciplined, but they were unable to show it. If they were placed in a true big battle, they would at the very most be able to endure for a short while and would not be able to last for long.
However, Xiao Yan was different. What made him different was that he had strength and the will to fight. Moreover, he had also successfully survived the big battle.
Regardless of whether this was luck or not, Xiao Yan had indeed survived. This point was already sufficient. Moreover, from a certain point of view, luck was also one of the aspects of success.
After regaining his senses, Luo Jin stared fiercely at the space in front of him, killing intent surging in his eyes.
"In addition, I've received news that the Cloud Immortal Sect in the Southern Region has also withdrawn the people guarding there. The border of the Southern Region is already empty."
Zhang Yi looked at Luo Jin in front of him, a gratified look in the depths of his old eyes. How could he not know what his own ancestor meant? As Luo Jin's guardian, he naturally felt gratified when he saw Luo Jin's appearance.
"Sss … the Cloud Immortal Sect? Even they have withdrawn? In that case, the Ghost Hall in the Southern Region has been abolished. Otherwise, they wouldn't have withdrawn in full force. "
Luo Jin exclaimed in surprise. Then, he analyzed in a low voice.
"Yes. In addition, not long ago, our men discovered that they had met an elder of the Cloud Immortal Sect through the teleportation array."
Zhang Yi followed beside Luo Jin. As they descended the stairs, he deliberated as he spoke.
"Oh? An elder of the Cloud Immortal Sect? Ha … why? After we left the Southern Region, they couldn't sit still anymore. Not only did they abandon their territory, but they also joined the Western Region in the muddy waters. Are they trying to fish in troubled waters? "
Luo Jin raised his eyebrows slightly, a look of surprise on his face. The news that he had received recently was all about the Southern Region. He did not expect that these people would immediately take action after Xiao Yan left the Southern Region. It seemed that there was more to this than meets the eye.
"No, I think that the reason for his trip is not because he was ordered by the Cloud Immortal Sect, but because he has other motives."
Hearing this, Zhang Yi frowned and rubbed his fingers together as he spoke softly.
"What do you mean?"
Luo Jin turned his head to look at Zhang Yi and asked softly.
"Young master, do you remember that our young friend Xiao Yan has a skill that allows him to summon an avatar that is almost as powerful as his actual body? That skill was obtained from an elder of the Cloud Immortal Sect."
"Hiss … you mean, Yuan Qing from the Cloud Immortal Sect?"
Luo Jin was stunned. Then, he could not help but exclaim in surprise. If that was the case, Yuan Qing's motive was likely to be Xiao Yan. He had heard that Xiao Yan was in the Western Region, so he had taken advantage of the retreat to go to the Western Region alone to look for Xiao Yan.
"Boom!"
However, just as Luo Jin was about to cry out in shock, a violent explosion suddenly sounded from the attic upstairs.
In the next instant, Luo Jin, who was walking downstairs, suddenly turned around. At the same time, Zhang Yi, who was behind him, also turned around at the same time. They both lifted their heads and looked at the attic on the sixth floor. Their eyes were filled with joy and excitement.
At the same time, in the attic on the sixth floor, Xiao Yan, whose eyes were originally closed and whose body was burning with the Star Flame, had already sat up. The Heavenly Fire entered his body, and his aura was as powerful as a soaring dragon.
Sensing the familiar aura from upstairs, Luo Jin and Zhang Yi could not help but exclaim in surprise.
"Xiao Yan, you're awake!"
