In an elegant room, a beautiful young woman sat in front of a dressing table, meticulously outlining her eyebrows with an eyebrow pencil while looking into a mirror.
She dabbed dark blue pigment around her eyes, dyed her lips black with black lipstick, and powdered her face with a pale, deathly white.
Looking at her reflection in the mirror, which resembled a malevolent spirit more than a living person, Hun Xiao put away her makeup tools and revealed a satisfied smile:
"Mm-hmm, this Protector... cough... this Miss is beautiful today too!"
Hun Xiao stood up, pushed open the door, and walked out.
In the courtyard, she saw a mature woman with elegant makeup who looked graceful and noble. This woman bore an eight-tenths resemblance to Hun Xiao; no, it should be said that Hun Xiao resembled her by eight-tenths.
"Mother, good morning," Hun Xiao greeted.
She noticed the makeup on the mature woman's face, raised an eyebrow, and asked suspiciously, "Mother, are you going out for something today?"
Hun Mi chuckled, "It's just that rascal Hun Zhang again, casually acknowledging a father outside... sigh, he's a pitiful child too, with such a damned father, he's never had fatherly love since he was little... I'm going to check on them for you."
Hun Xiao: "!"
"Ohohoho..." Hun Mi swayed her hips and left.
Hun Xiao scratched her face with her index finger, standing still for a long time.
She quickly forgot this small interlude and walked towards the outside of Soul Emperor City.
After leaving the city, she flew into the sky, heading straight for the spatial wormhole connecting the Soul Realm to the Soul Hall Tian Hall. After more than half a year of cultivation, her strength had increased significantly, and her speed was a few points faster than before.
Arriving at the spatial wormhole, after showing the Elder token Hun Zhang had given her, she boarded a spatial ship and departed.
Watching her leave, the Soul Clan guard responsible for watching the wormhole looked a bit surprised. It wasn't that no one in the Soul Clan dressed up, but within the Soul Hall, they were generally uniformly dressed in black robes with their faces obscured by black mist. He rarely saw anyone like Hun Xiao going to the outside world in such an appearance.
Inside the Soul Hall, she met Soul Destruction Life.
"Hall Master," Hun Xiao bowed slightly respectfully.
"It's you? Does Hun Zhang know you're going out? Did you bring a guard? If anything happens to you, that bastard could tear down my Soul Hall."
Soul Destruction Life's voice was low, and his face was expressionless, but Hun Xiao knew he was teasing her, so she responded with a smile:
"No need for any guards, I'm not a pushover either. I'm just going to wander around the Northwest of the continent; there aren't many experts there... and I brought a spatial jade slip to summon my brother..."
Soul Destruction Life thought for a moment, took out a jade slip, and handed it to her:
"According to the Eight Clans Alliance, powers above Five Star Dou Saint cannot walk on the continent, and the 'Three Sword Saints' are a hidden power of my Soul Clan and cannot be exposed. If something happens, you can summon me first."
"Thank you, Hall Master," Hun Xiao showed a sweet smile. "By the way, how are the Xiao Clan souls we captured before doing?"
"Why do you ask?"
"Just curious. Brother Hun Qiu hasn't been guarding Father... cough, Xiao Zhan recently..." Hun Xiao replied.
Soul Destruction Life was not keen on keeping such a group of hidden dangers in the Soul Hall, so he immediately said:
"The Xiao Clan people's souls are strange. I've placed them under guard in the dungeon and haven't extracted their soul origin. If Hun Qiu is interested, I can transfer them to him."
"My brother or my mother might be interested..." Hun Xiao muttered, then said, "I'll leave first."
"Wait," Soul Destruction Life called out to her, taking out a token. "Since you're going to the Northwest region, you might as well take this with you. There's a newly promoted Honored Elder there."
"A newly promoted Honored Elder?" Hun Xiao's tone was quite happy.
The power of the Soul Hall had grown stronger!
"You know him. Speaking of which, he has some connection to you as well," Soul Destruction Life's tone was quite peculiar.
"Hmm?" Hun Xiao's face showed confusion.
A newly promoted Honored Elder related to me?
Could it be Guardian Feng? Guardian Feng is powerful, and with the 'Supreme Pill' I gave him before, the probability of breaking through to Dou Venerate is not small.
Although Guardian Cheng is slightly weaker, he is also a Nine Star Dou Ancestor, so there's a possibility.
"It's Protector Meng, no, he should be called Old Man Meng Zun now. If anything happens that isn't urgent enough to summon me or your brother, you can ask him for help," Soul Destruction Life gave the answer.
"What the heck, Protector Meng?" Hun Xiao's face showed a blank expression, and she looked stunned.
It took her a moment to remember which Protector Meng she was thinking of.
Ah, this... I didn't hear wrong, did I? When I met him back then, that guy should have only been a peak Dou King, right? How long has it been, and how did he become an Honored Elder? Hun Xiao was greatly shocked.
It took her a while to recover: "Okay, I understand. I'll hand the item over to him."

Hun Xiao bid farewell to Soul Destruction Life and entered the spatial passage to the Human Hall. She needed to transfer there once before she could go to the Northwest region.
...
Xiao Yan had Gold and Silver Elders and the others return to the Black-Corner Region first to prepare for the "Xiao Alliance."
He himself took Payne and Xiao Qing to the Imperial City of the Jia Ma Empire. He settled the two in the Miteer Family and also asked Ya Fei to help find the surviving members of the Xiao Family.
"You can rest assured and leave it to me, little brother Xiao Yan. You can trust me with matters, big sister will handle it," "Miteer Ya Fei" adjusted her monocle, her lips curving into a smile.
Seeing her action, Xiao Yan instinctively shivered, but remembering that Gu Yuan had already concluded that this action had no necessary connection to those strange insects, he suppressed the subtle sense of unease in his heart.
He still had considerable faith in Xun Er's father's judgment.
"By the way, Sister Ya Fei, how has the Yunlan Sect been recently?" Xiao Yan asked with some apprehension.
"The Yunlan Sect... it disbanded. They gave all their disciples a severance package, and the huge Sect disintegrated in just a few days. I have to say, little brother Xiao Yan, you truly have great ability," Ya Fei teased.
Ya Fei's "sincere" praise, to Xiao Yan, felt like a knife piercing his heart, making him feel exceptionally guilty and regretful.
I was too reckless. If I had investigated more clearly before acting, if I could have remained calm after Protector Wu appeared, perhaps such a mistake wouldn't have occurred.
"Sigh, Xiao Yan, you can't be entirely blamed for this. You originally had a chance to explain to Yun Shan, but Protector Wu suddenly appeared and interrupted your conversation, and Yun Shan didn't offer more explanations, directly admitting it himself..." Yao Chen comforted.
Yao Chen's comfort had some effect, but not much. Xiao Yan's face still showed unconcealed pain.
Seeing his expression, "Ya Fei" revealed a joyful smile.
