Boom!
Accompanied by the slight tremors of countless skeletal remains, the eyes of the long-silent demon beast skeletons, dormant for thousands of years, suddenly lit up with streaks of red light.
In an instant, hundreds of blood-red eyes appeared before Xiao Yan, a sight so formidable that even he couldn't help but change his expression.
Crack, crack. As these eyes lit up, the skeletons of these demon beasts seemed to come to life, slowly moving towards Xiao Yan and his group.
"Young master, please step back a bit."Xiao Wu took the initiative to stand in front of Xiao Yan, shielding him.
"Old Wu, be careful," Xiao Yan said, his expression now much more serious.
"Haha, with just the skeletons of these magical beasts, even when they were alive, they were no match for me. Unless the Seven-colored Demon Saint were to revive, they would only turn to dust before me," Xiao Wu chuckled lightly.
As soon as his words fell, the previously motionless skeleton of the giant serpent in the distance suddenly emitted a sound.
In the next moment, a strange red light appeared in the hollow eyes of the serpent's head."I really am a jinx!"
Seeing the scene before him, Xiao Wu wished he could slap himself twice.
But now it was too late for regrets. The massive, towering skeleton, resembling a bone dragon, was becoming increasingly lifelike, and a pair of crimson eyes had already locked onto Xiao Yan and his companions.
At this moment, the usually calm and composed expressions of the Martial and Literary Saints, who had been serene since leaving the Xiao clan, finally turned serious.
The remains of a Five-Star Dou Saint, even if they had fallen thousands of years ago, were not to be underestimated as long as they could still move.As the increasingly agile skeletal demon beast approached them, the Civil and Martial Saints finally decided to unleash their full power.
Boom!
The immense aura of the two erupted in an instant, and as this powerful aura spread, the surrounding space couldn't help but tremble slightly.
Just as the two were preparing to engage in a fierce battle with the remains of the demon saint, an aura that also reached the semi-saint level emanated from the head of the Seven-colored Demon Saint in the ancient city.
"There's actually another semi-saint powerhouse!" The expressions of the Civil and Martial Saints changed even more drastically this time."No, why does this semi-saint's aura feel so peculiar and weak?" A trace of confusion appeared on Xiao Wen's face.
"I truly didn't expect that as soon as this ruin emerged, it would attract the appearance of two semi-saint level powerers."
A faint, almost imperceptible bitter laugh came from the head of the Seven-colored Demon Saint, and soon, the figure of an old woman appeared atop the head.
The old woman had pale hair and withered skin, looking no different from a grandmother who was half a step into the coffin.Judging from her demeanor and bone structure, she might have been a stunning beauty in her youth.
With her appearance, Xiao Yan and the other two once again showed a hint of surprise. They hadn't expected to encounter a living person in this ancient city, but judging by her appearance, it seemed her lifespan was nearing its end.
Even for a semi-saint powerhouse, the limit of lifespan after thousands of years would be about the same.
"It's her, she's the daughter of the Seven-colored Demon Saint, Medusa!"
Just as the three were puzzled, You Mo's voice once again emanated from the black lotus.Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan's expression instantly became incredibly animated.
Wasn't Medusa the queen of the Snake People? How could she appear here, and as an old lady at that?
This was far from the captivating young lady he had imagined; it was more like a little grandmother.
As if she had heard You Mo's voice, the old woman's gaze passed over the two sages of literature and martial arts, directly landing on Xiao Yan and the black lotus before him.
"The Netherworld Serpent? You actually recognize me? Wait, who is You Ling to you?"
Her voice came softly, her eyes narrowing slightly as she looked at You Mo."The ghost is my grandfather. He always kept you in his thoughts until his death."
Seeing the old woman's gaze turn towards him, Youmo's expression carried a hint of excitement.
"So, you're the descendant of that coward," the old woman sneered upon hearing Youmo's voice, her smile filled with disdain rather than the excitement of meeting an old acquaintance.
Hearing her refer to his grandfather in such a manner, a trace of indignation appeared on Youmo's face.
"Elder, my grandfather was at least acquainted with you and was a veteran who followed the Seven-colored Demon Saint for many years. Is this how you mock him?"
"Veteran?"Upon hearing these words, the old woman let out a cold laugh, as if she had heard some joke.
"Are the so-called veterans you speak of the ones who decisively fled when my father and the Demon Beast Mountain Range faced a great calamity?"
"Look at the bones scattered all over the ground; these were your grandfather's brothers from the past. Yet, when disaster struck, he was the first to run away."
"???" Youmo's face first showed a moment of confusion, then, as if recalling something, a trace of bewilderment appeared on his face.
Ignoring Youmo's bewildered expression, the old woman's gaze turned towards the two sages of literature and martial arts."If you two are after my father's legacy, you might as well give up that thought.
The legacy of the Seven-Colored Sky Devouring Python Clan is something that you humans cannot cultivate, and as for the other things, I presume they are of no interest to you either."
"So, the legacy is something that humans cannot cultivate."
A faint chuckle came from behind the Civil and Martial Saints, and the old woman's gaze flicked towards Xiao Yan.
Only after taking a closer look at Xiao Yan did a hint of surprise appear in her eyes."At such a young age, to possess such cultivation, little one, your talent is truly astonishing. Could it be that you are the descendant of these two semi-saints?"
"Old senior, you must be careful with your words. We are not worthy of such a title. This is the Imperial Son of our clan."
Hearing the old woman address him thus, Xiao Wen quickly waved his hand and explained to her.
"The Imperial Son of your clan?" Upon hearing Xiao Wen's explanation, the old woman's astonishment was evident on her face.
"Imperial Son, is there still anyone in the Dou Qi Continent today who is worthy of such a title?"It has probably been nearly ten thousand years since the last Dou Di powerhouse disappeared.
However, since you have earned such a title, you must be from some ancient clan. No wonder you have such a lineup."
"Your insight is correct, senior. We are from the Xiao Clan," Xiao Yan replied with a light smile.
"The Xiao Clan?" Upon hearing Xiao Yan's words, the old woman's face showed a hint of realization.
"So you are from the Xiao Clan. My father had some connections with a few of the Xiao Clan's powerhouses back in the day.""However, the Xiao Clan was already beginning to face issues with their bloodline power back then. Now, after so many years, the bloodline power of the Xiao Clan should be nearly exhausted."
"Who would have thought that even now, they could still send two semi-saints as your guardians."
Seeing the old woman's self-talk, Xiao Wu couldn't help but speak up first.
"Our Xiao Clan is blessed by heaven; we had a new Dou Emperor a thousand years ago!"
This statement was made so casually, but in the ears of the old woman, it was like a thunderclap."Impossible, absolutely impossible! How could a Dou Di powerhouse possibly appear in the Dou Qi Continent now!"
