When he said this, Xiao Wen immediately understood what he meant.
"Young Master, I understand!"
As he spoke, he pulled out a jade talisman from his storage ring.
"This item was given to me by the clan leader when I returned to the clan last time. Young Master can use it to directly contact the Patriarch."
"Oh?" Upon hearing that, Xiao Yan's originally grim face showed a flicker of surprise.
Looks like that little beaker (Xiao Shaobei) really does feel grateful for saving the Yin-Yang Evil Saint. Thinking this, Xiao Yan no longer hesitated—he accepted the jade talisman and infused his Dou Qi into it.
Soon, the talisman emitted a burst of light, and an image appeared before Xiao Yan's eyes.
"What do you want?" Xiao Shaobei asked casually while adjusting his clothes, glancing toward Xiao Yan.
"Hm?" What the hell was this beaker just doing?Xiao Yan's mind flashed through countless thoughts, even recalling that this guy had supposedly let the Saintess of the Soul Clan escape. But that wasn't something he could deal with right now.
So he quickly put on a pitiful expression.
"Patriarch, I was bullied outside!"
"Bullied?" Xiao Shaobei's brow furrowed slightly.
"Aren't Xiao Wen and Xiao Wu following you? Who could possibly suppress two Half-Saints?"
"It was a Dou Sheng," Xiao Yan said obediently.
"Dou Sheng? Didn't you announce the name of our Xiao Clan?" Xiao Shaobei's expression darkened in dissatisfaction.
"I did! But that guy completely ignored it and even said you were a nobody," Xiao Yan exaggerated with a bit of added spice.
With his experience, Xiao Shaobei obviously knew Xiao Yan was fanning the flames, but he didn't mind. Instead, he simply looked at Xiao Yan with a calm gaze.
"What level of Dou Sheng is he, and what's his background?"
"A one-star Dou Sheng, the unworthy disciple of the Seven-Colored Demon Saint. Probably a wild one." Xiao Yan said slowly.
"Even a wild Dou Sheng should've at least heard of the Xiao Clan's reputation. Yet he dared to ignore you and even wanted to kill you?" Xiao Shaobei frowned.
"Exactly! That man didn't put our clan in his eyes at all." Xiao Yan nodded in agreement.
"I understand," Xiao Shaobei said lightly, nodding once. "I'll send a few experts over to back you up."
"Many thanks, Patriarch! Your divine might is boundless—surely you'll reach Dou Di soon!" Xiao Yan clasped his fists respectfully.
"Enough, enough—no need to flatter me. I told you, we're equals now." Xiao Shaobei waved his hand casually, though the corners of his mouth curved into a faint smirk.
"Even if we're equals, you're still a senior I should humbly learn from," Xiao Yan said with a faint, polite smile.
"Heh." Xiao Shaobei chuckled.
"I'll send even more experts, just so people remember that the Xiao Clan hasn't been silent out of weakness. It's time those stray cats and dogs learned their place again."
"Many thanks, Patriarch!" Xiao Yan bowed once more.
Xiao Shaobei nodded, about to sever the connection—but then suddenly changed the subject. "You mentioned the Seven-Colored Demon Saint. Don't tell me you found her inheritance?"
"That's right. Patriarch, could it be that you knew the Seven-Colored Demon Saint?"
A trace of surprise appeared on Xiao Yan's face.
"Of course not. By the time I was born, that senior had long since fallen. But the Seven-Colored Clan was indeed worthy of respect."
As he spoke, Xiao Shaobei gave Xiao Yan a rather ambiguous look.
"So, you've met a descendant of the Seven-Colored Clan?"
"I have." Xiao Yan blinked, a bit confused. Why was a Nine-Star Dou Sheng interested in this kind of thing?
"Male or female?" Xiao Shaobei asked again.
"Female."
"Heh-heh-heh… kid, looks like your romantic luck isn't bad!"
A grin spread across Xiao Shaobei's face—a grin every man understood.
Xiao Yan instantly caught on, sharing the same mischievous smirk.
"Heh-heh-heh."
"Kid, enjoy your stud life in the Northwestern Continent while you can. Once you reach Dou Zun, the clan will arrange a real trial for you." Xiao Shaobei winked playfully, then cut off the connection—or rather, hung up the jade talisman.
"What do you mean stud life? I'm spreading love across the Northwestern Continent," Xiao Yan muttered, curling his lips. Then his mind wandered back to Xiao Shaobei's words.
"When I reach Dou Zun, there'll be a new trial, huh? Well, that's fine too. Being protected all the time would only make me soft."
As that thought crossed his mind, he suddenly sensed a faint groan behind him.
Turning around, he saw that the aura of the First-Generation Medusa, Caiyu, was rapidly declining.
"Senior!" Xiao Yan's expression changed slightly as he watched her life force weakening.
"I'm fine," the First Generation said softly, shaking her head. Though her face was pale, her eyes remained bright and sharp.
"It's only a slight loss of vital essence."
"Only a slight loss of vital essence?" Xiao Yan's eyes narrowed.
"…And part of my lifespan," she added with a faint, bitter smile.
"My time is running short. I only hope to see the Swallowing Heaven Python Clan rise again before I die."
As she spoke, she cast a gentle glance at Xiao Yan.
"Kid, I've already helped you fool that old lady. Whether you can succeed or not depends on you now."
"Hehe, don't worry, Senior," Xiao Yan said with a grin tugging at the corner of his mouth.
Then he looked at the three women beside him and nodded slightly before turning to the Saints of Wen and Wu.
"Elders, protect me."
With that said, he sat cross-legged on the ground.
Back in that spatial world, although he had refined the Ten Thousand Beasts Spirit Flame and fused it into a new Heavenly Flame, he hadn't yet devoured it.
Moreover, now that he possessed the Ten Thousand Beasts Spirit Flame, his Crimson Refining Flame Demon Body could rise to yet another level.
With that thought, Xiao Yan extended his hand. A flame appeared in his palm—black and white interwoven with faint streaks of seven-colored glaze.
"From now on, this new Heavenly Flame shall be called the Yin-Yang Holy Spirit Flame."
He gave this newly-born Heavenly Flame its name.
This powerful fusion of two Heavenly Flames possessed strength surpassing even Yao Lao's Bone Spirit Cold Flame. Both the Yin-Yang Holy Flame and the Ten Thousand Beasts Spirit Flame held extraordinary supportive effects.
When their powers combined, Xiao Yan's recovery ability would skyrocket to an unprecedented level.
As he began the devouring process, the ancient city—half-destroyed—once again fell into eerie silence. Only a few people quietly watched him cultivate.
Unlike the two Saints of Wen and Wu, who guarded him intently, the First Generation gazed at Xiao Yan with the eyes of an investor—evaluating her gamble.
Meanwhile, the elders of the Serpentfolk Clan, seeing Xiao Yan's strength and the mighty forces gathered around him, had a glimmer of sharp light in their aged eyes, as if contemplating something profound.
Yue Mei and Hua She'er's gazes were filled with both awe and admiration.
The Serpentfolk had always respected strength, and the overwhelming power this young man displayed naturally stirred deep reverence within them.
At that moment, they couldn't help but think of the Seven-Colored Swallowing Heaven Python that their ancestor had entrusted to Xiao Yan—and wonder just what the Queen truly thought of this young man.
And so, seven days quietly passed.
Then, in the distance beyond the ancient city, space suddenly rippled with a strange fluctuation.
In the next moment, more than a dozen figures appeared high in the sky—each exuding an aura vast as the sea.
As these figures emerged, Xiao Yan—who had been in seclusion for seven days—finally opened his eyes!
