Xiao Yan and the other two were standing within Jin Yao's mansion in Yan City. At this moment, an old man's figure slowly descended from the sky above the mansion.
"Ha ha, little brother Xiao Yan, it has been five years since we last met. Your strength has soared. You have actually already reached the five star Dou Di class. You have really caused these old bones of mine to lose face!"
Before the person arrived, a hearty laughter had already been transmitted from a great distance and reverberated unceasingly within this small courtyard.
This person was naturally the manager of the Tianyun Auction House, Fang Qian.
After not seeing each other for five years, Fang Qian's cultivation had already stepped into the initial level of a four star Dou Di. He could be considered the second strongest person within Yan City. However, compared to Xiao Yan's soaring cultivation, Fang Qian's strength was clearly insufficient.
Seeing the person who had arrived, Xiao Yan and Dong Chuan, who were seated beside the stone table, smiled at each other. They stood up together and looked at Fang Qian. On the other side, Jin Yao took out a couple of exquisite jade cups from her room and filled them with tea. Her footsteps were light as she walked over.
"Haha, Elder Brother, you're being too humble. I was just lucky enough to obtain my current cultivation level. Elder Brother Fang Qian, you're getting more and more energetic even though you've not seen me for five years."
"Ha ha, this little fellow is trying to change the topic!"
Fang Qian descended and laughed out loud. After which, his eyes flashed as he saw Jin Yao strolling over while holding a cup of tea. A surprised expression involuntarily flashed across his old eyes. He exchanged glances with Dong Chuan and the two of them involuntarily smiled. Immediately, Fang Qian took the opportunity when Jin Yao placed down the jade cup and walked away to softly tease Xiao Yan with a smile.
"Tsk tsk, little brother Xiao Yan is really outstanding. Jin Yao xiao-jie can be considered one of the strongest people in Yan City. Usually, she would not be so warm even when facing the two of us. Today, when she saw little brother Xiao Yan, she actually became as obedient as a little wife. Ha ha ha."
"Uh …"
Xiao Yan was startled. He could not help but smile awkwardly. After which, he smiled bitterly and said,
"Elder brother, don't make fun of your younger brother like that. I treat her like an elder sister, so naturally, she only treats me like a younger brother. Our relationship is just that of siblings."
Dong Chuan and Jin Yao were immediately startled when these words were uttered. Their gazes swiftly met for an instant before they laughed out loud. Fang Qian's gaze swept back and forth between Xiao Yan and Jin Yao. He quietly said in his heart,
"Brat, you treat her as your big sister, but do you know what she treats you as?"
Next, the three of them casually chatted for a while. When they talked about Xiao Yan's next destination, the expressions on Dong Chuan and the other man's faces could not help but change slightly.
"What, you want to open the Ancient Tomb of Heaven's End by yourself?"
"Yes, because there's something very important waiting for me to retrieve it."
Facing Fang Qian, Xiao Yan nodded his head and said with a determined expression on his face.
"But you should also know that if you want to open the Ancient Tomb of Heaven's End, you must first gather the three famous Dou Techniques of Tian Jue. Only by using the three Dou Techniques together can you open the Ancient Tomb of Heaven's End. Just relying on one of them is impossible!"
"How would I know if I don't give it a try? If I reject it without seeing the result with my own eyes, wouldn't that be too hasty? Even if my Sky Extinction Steps alone can't open the Sky Extinction Ancient Tomb, I must personally give it a try.
Dong Chuan and Jin Yao repeatedly dissuaded him. However, Xiao Yan's stance was firm. No matter what, he must make a trip to the Ancient Tomb of Heaven's End. Even if he could not open it in the end, he wanted to personally prove it.
When the two brothers saw how firm Xiao Yan was, they could only helplessly sigh.
"Ke ke, the two of you can relax. If I really can't open the Ancient Tomb of Heaven's End, I can just turn back. Don't tell me that the two of you don't believe in my strength?"
Hearing this, Dong Chuan and Jin Yao smiled and nodded. They did not doubt Xiao Yan's strength at all.
When he was a Ban Di, he was able to cause a Dou Di to suffer and even kill a Dou Di. Now that his strength had reached a five star Dou Di, Xiao Yan's fighting strength would only be even more frightening than before. Currently, even in the entire western region, the number of people who could fight with Xiao Yan could be counted with one's fingers.
"When do you plan to leave?"
"Three days later."
Xiao Yan's face revealed a smile as he replied without the slightest hesitation.
While the words were being spat out from Xiao Yan's mouth, he did not notice that Jin Yao, whose lovely body was wrapped under a red dress, was staring at him with a pair of startled pretty eyes a short distance behind him. A complicated expression was revealed deep within her eyes. Finally, she turned around in a lonely manner and walked to the side of the pond by herself …
At the same time, the four large sects on Qingshun Mountain finally began to move.
The Sky Sword Gate's territory.
Four human figures were standing in the Meeting Hall. The expressions on their faces were somewhat gloomy, especially the chief of the Sky Sword Gate, Jian Ming. His eyes contained a surging killing intent that could not be contained.
"It is unexpected that the speed of that brat's growth is actually this fast. In just a short couple of years, his strength has already reached a five star Dou Di!"
"That brat's strength was already extraordinary when he was a Ban Di. He was known for his strength that far surpassed those of the same level. With his current strength, it is likely that he can already fight with a six star Dou Di!"
"What should we do now? A couple of days ago, someone came to report that he has already left the Xilin Mountain Range and is heading west. I wonder what he is planning."
"Hei, Wu Jitian, the western side is the territory of your Battle Sect. A couple of years ago, I heard that Xiao Yan had a fight with a deacon of your Battle Sect. Don't tell me that he is targeting you?"
That somewhat heavy voice had just sounded when a cold laugh was emitted from the mouth of another person.
"Hmph, Jian Ming, you should take care of yourself. Just Xiao Yan alone does not have the ability to barge into my Battle Sect!"
"Hee hee, that may not be the case. I heard that the brat is also a physical body practitioner. Not only is his Dou Qi outstanding, but his physical body is also quite strong. Additionally, he is also an alchemist. Tsk tsk …"
Jian Ming laughed strangely when he heard this. His face was filled with a cold smile.
"I think that your Sky Sword Gate is afraid after being beaten by Xiao Yan. All you can say is how strong Xiao Yan is. You really boost his morale!"
"What did you say!"
"Enough! The most important thing now is how to deal with Xiao Yan and not us being unreasonable here. Of course, if any of you wish to deal with Xiao Yan alone and are unwilling to join forces, you can step forward now. We will go our separate ways and see who will have the last laugh. "
Chen Zhen suddenly stepped forward while the two of them were arguing endlessly. He stopped the two of them with a single sentence. In the blink of an eye, the atmosphere once again calmed down.
"Could he have gone to … the Western Wastelands?"
Suddenly, Ye Luotian, who had been silent all this while, carefully swept his gaze over the three people in front of him as he awkwardly asked.
Ye Luotian's sudden words successfully attracted the gazes of the three people. This was especially the case when he mentioned the Western Wastelands. Their hearts involuntarily thought of the Tian Jue Ancient Tomb when he mentioned this.
Could it be that he would really go to the Western Wastelands?
This doubt immediately rose in the hearts of the four of them.
"It is very likely."
"Although the Battle Martial Sect is located in the Western Wastelands, Xiao Yan alone will not be able to threaten them. How can the power of an entire sect be resisted by him alone!"
"However, since that is the case, there is only one reason why Xiao Yan is heading towards the Western Wastelands …"
"The Western Wastelands!"
"He wants to open the Tian Jue Ancient Tomb by himself?"
"What a joke. Since he wants to go, let him go. As long as we intercept him at the place he must pass and take the Tian Jue Steps back, we will be able to eliminate Xiao Yan and obtain the Tian Jue Steps. When we open the Tian Jue Ancient Tomb, everything inside will belong to the four sects. Wouldn't that be great?"
After the three of them spoke, a sinister smile appeared on their faces. However, they had completely forgotten about Ye Luotian. It was as if their three sects had never included him in their plans from the very beginning.
Unfortunately, while the three sects had such thoughts, Ye Luotian also had such thoughts. He had purposely pointed out Xiao Yan's motive so that the three sects would intercept Xiao Yan.
When the sandpiper and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits. Right now, Ye Luotian was this fisherman!
