"Boom!"
Along with another thunderous explosion rolling across the sky, the fist imprint that Zi Yan had hurriedly thrown out did not even last a thousandth of a second before it was completely shattered by that golden flame, dissolving into nothing midair.
However, that tiny sliver of time was already enough for Zi Yan to shoot far away. She had long since escaped this place.
"Damn it, that brute-force girl ran away again!"
Sensing that Zi Yan had vanished from her perception, Gu Xun'er's beautiful little face instantly darkened. These past days, although she had defeated that barbaric girl again and again, she was never able to completely pin her down. It was starting to seriously annoy her.
"Xun'er, don't get yourself worked up over this. She can't cause trouble in Falling Star Pavilion anymore. For us, that's already a huge victory."
Seeing her unhappy, Xiao Yan — who had just broken free from his fight with the Sky Demon Puppet — immediately stepped forward to comfort her.
"Yeah, we can afford to lose countless times, but she only needs to lose once and she'll be finished by our hands. The final winner will still be us. Taking a few small losses now is nothing to get upset about."
As he finished speaking, Yao Lao soul who had fully recovered under Xiao Yan's careful treatment flew out of the storage ring with a bright grin.
"Brother Xiao Yan, Senior Yao Chen, don't worry. My mentality isn't that fragile."
Hearing them, Gu Xun'er's expression quickly returned to normal, and she let out a soft laugh.
But in her heart, she secretly made a firm vow — next time, she would definitely capture that annoying troublemaker. After that, Gu Xun'er and the Falling Star Pavilion members, once again returning empty-handed, had no choice but to leave and head back to their base.
On the other side, after who knew how long, Zi Yan finally shot out of the pitch-black crack created by the spatial jade slip.
The moment she saw Lin Feng, she dove straight into his arms like a lightning bolt, pitifully saying, "Lin Feng, you finally came out of seclusion. These three months, I've been waiting for you every single day."
Seeing her expression, Lin Feng's hands instinctively supported her perky backside.
At the same time, a trace of warmth rose in his heart as he sighed, "Didn't expect that besides stuffing your face, you'd actually know how to care about people now."
"Of course, I've always been like this."
Zi Yan nodded seriously, as if that had always been the natural truth, then impatiently asked, "So now, can we go look for that Dou Sheng Ruins you mentioned before?"
As she spoke, Zi Yan's eyes lit up like gemstones, staring at him with glowing anticipation.
After all, whether it was the Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit, or those eighth-tier and even ninth-tier pills, she had long been craving them like crazy. Now that Lin Feng had come out, there was no way she'd sit still.
"You little brat, give me back the moment of emotion I just had."
Her attitude made the warmth in Lin Feng's chest vanish instantly.
The corner of his eye twitched as he glared at the girl in his arms, speechless. Just now, he had honestly thought she missed him.
But from those last few words… Zi Yan was clearly thinking about that Dou Sheng Ruins.
"Hehe, I do miss you too, mua!"
Realizing her thoughts had been exposed, a flash of guilt flickered across Zi Yan's face. She quickly leaned forward and planted a few kisses all over Lin Feng's face as proof of her sincerity.
"You little troublemaker…"
Covered in her saliva, Lin Feng could only shake his head helplessly.
He set her down, then said, "Since you're in such a hurry, let's head out now. Once we're outside, I'll call Cao Ying and Qing'er. We'll all go together."
At that, he turned toward her and asked, "By the way, has Xian'er returned yet?"
"Not yet. These three months, I've been waiting for her too. I even went to the Ten Thousand Poison Mountain Range to look for her because I wanted to get poison from her to poison that bastard Xiao Yan. But that old man there said that ever since the small-chested girl went in, there hasn't been a single movement."
As she spoke, Zi Yan shrugged in disappointment.
Earlier, she had even been thinking about relying on that small-chested girl to take out Gu Xun'er. But after meeting the old man who guarded the tomb outside, she learned that woman still hadn't come out of seclusion.
In the end, she could only return disappointed.
"She still hasn't finished accepting the inheritance…"
Hearing that Xiao Yixian hadn't emerged yet, Lin Feng also shook his head.
But since she mentioned Xiao Yan, Lin Feng suddenly grew curious and asked, "During this period, have you carried out my plan? How effective was it?"
The moment he brought up the topic, Zi Yan lifted her little chin proudly, placed her hands on her hips, and announced her achievements, "Earlier, according to your plan, I got a few puppets from Xin Lan, and when the timing was just right."
"I sent two of them straight to explode in Xiao Yan's face. The power was insane. If that guy didn't have an annoying woman with him, along with two strong guards, I would've blown that Xiao Yan to pieces right then and there."
"After that, I went wild inside Flower Sect, causing chaos everywhere. I killed their Elders and disciples every few days, and even looted their Medicine Mountain. I got tons of high-quality herbs, hehe…"
At the thought of that mountain of medicinal ingredients, she couldn't help grinning as her hand touched her storage ring.
After all, as one of the two great sects, Flower Sect's collection was naturally beyond abundant. It was just a pity that their treasury defenses were too thorough. She couldn't take much from there. Otherwise, she would've made another enormous fortune.
But her movement drew Lin Feng's attention immediately. He noticed the fresh burn on the back of her delicate hand — clearly left by the Gold Emperor Incinerating Heavenly Flame.
Seeing that injury, Lin Feng frowned. He grabbed her little hand and lifted it to take a closer look. "You little brat, where did you get yourself hurt again? And this wound… it even has a trace of Heavenly Flame on it."
"Aiya, I'll tell you about that later. Let me finish telling you what happened these three months first."
Then Zi Yan continued, "After I caused trouble in Flower Sect for a while, an old woman showed up — her strength was about the same as the woman who ambushed us before."
"She personally guarded Flower Sect's grand formation and blocked me from entering. Since I couldn't get inside anymore, I had no choice but to go mess with Xiao Yan's place instead."
"Same thing there. I looted their medicine fields and treasury too, and the harvest was pretty amazing…"
At that point, a silly little grin crept across Zi Yan's face. After all, the gains from Falling Star Pavilion's herb fields and treasury were even more surprising than she expected.
But right after that, she clenched her small fist in front of her, her expression turning irritated as she continued, "Originally, everything was going great. Attacking Falling Star Pavilion's disciples and Dou Zun experts was smooth."
"I even relied on my own strength and the Sky Demon Puppet to fend off Xiao Yan several times. But later on, that annoying woman named Gu Xun'er kept stopping me."
"That woman has strong experts protecting her, and she has tons of tricks. Even though I tried everything I could think of, I still couldn't beat her."
Just thinking about how, during this entire period, every time she caused trouble at Falling Star Pavilion, Gu Xun'er would chase her down and beat her up everywhere… Zi Yan felt her anger spike again.
Every time she lost and went back to Eastern Dragon Island for help, those old geezers refused to assist her, telling her to take revenge on her own.
The only thing they did was teach her some Ancient Void Dragon Clan inheritance techniques and give her some herbs whenever she returned, saying it was their version of help.
