Before Exchange Blows, both Hun Tiandi and Gu Yuan were absolutely confident in their progress, each expecting to Crush their Thousand Years old rival.
But when they truly engaged, they realized that while they had made immense progress, the other side had also advanced significantly. It was still a Draw. After the fight, they calmed down and began to Negotiate.
Hun Tiandi watched as Gu Yuan tore open The Void and left with his people, his eyes flickering, wondering what he was thinking.
"What a Zhao Li, what a Gu Yuan. This Seat remembers. When This Seat Becomes Emperor, This Seat will certainly Settle Accounts with you."
Hun Tiandi murmured in his heart. It was clearly Gu Yuan who had come knocking, yet he included Zhao Li in the Settling Accounts, silently adding a debt onto Zhao Li's head.
In his opinion, if it weren't for Zhao Li's sudden appearance, allowing Gu Lie and Gu Yuan's Strength to greatly increase, how could they possibly have had the ability to find this place? Leaving aside everything else, if it weren't for the Ninth Grade Golden Pill that Zhao Li Refined for the Gu Clan, with the Strength of the Soul Clan, they would definitely not have suffered a loss.
"Hun Tianyuan, tell me in detail about that Genius from the Gu Clan. Don't miss a single detail."
He withdrew his thoughts and began to Review the events that happened during the Time he was not here. He genuinely wanted to know what kind of existence could make Gu Yuan go so crazy. Anyway, if someone said it was because of Family Affection, he wouldn't believe it for a second.
Hun Tianyuan's Life Force was already exhausted after setting up the Grand Formation, but when Hun Tiandi was not present, he and a few others were in charge of the Clan's affairs. Therefore, Hun Tiandi had Hun Xuzi take action, allowing him to continue moving freely.
Hearing Hun Tiandi's words, he didn't hide anything and Revealed Everything about the Sensation caused by Xun'er's birth in the Gu Clan.
After listening, Hun Tiandi's originally depressed mood actually improved quite a bit. At the same Time, his regard for Gu Yuan also increased once again. He hadn't expected that seemingly honest person who lacked any spirit would have secretly done so many things.
With Xun'er's Talent, in two hundred years, she would definitely be another existence not weaker than himself. Two hundred years, to them, was not a long Time. It would be fine if he could Become Emperor, but if he didn't succeed, then he would truly be dealt with by the Gu Yuan Father and Daughter.
Thinking of this, Hun Tiandi's Ah Q Spirit began to work. He felt that exchanging a few minor characters from the Soul Clan for a major threat was not a loss for him.
There was just one more thing to figure out.
"Investigate who exposed the location of the Soul Realm."
As his words fell, the Soul Clan members who had just finished cleaning up the mess became busy again...
In the Northwestern Region, Jia Ma Empire, Wutan City, Xiao Family, a middle-aged man was circling a child, talking. However, the child seemed to be angry. Every Time Xiao Zhan circled in front of him, he would turn his head away.
Seeing this, Xiao Zhan took out his trump card, like an old Fox luring a Little Lamb, and asked Xiao Yan:
"Yan'er, do you want to Cultivate?"
Sure enough, upon hearing this, Xiao Yan's body slightly paused. Until Xiao Zhan circled in front of him again, he didn't avoid him anymore. A hint of expectation appeared in his eyes, and he asked:
"You agree?"
He had a secret. He seemed not to belong to this world. In his memory, he seemed to have another life, but for some unknown reason, it was already somewhat blurry, leaving only some scattered impressions.
Coming to this world and seeing the legendary Martial Arts Masters from his memory truly appear before him, he was naturally very curious.
Unfortunately, no matter what he said, his father in this life just wouldn't teach him, leaving him to watch them move with such ease, filled with envy.
Seeing the expectation in his son's eyes, Xiao Zhan chuckled and extended a finger, shaking it in front of Xiao Yan, saying:
"Naturally you can, but you have to agree to one condition."
His son was quite intelligent, but a bit too clever, and also somewhat Solitary, which gave him a headache. But Old Ginger is Spicier after all, and he still had a way to Control Xiao Yan.
Upon hearing that he could, Xiao Yan nodded without even thinking and eagerly asked:
"Father, don't say one, even ten, I'll agree to any condition. When will you teach me to Cultivate?"
Seeing this, Xiao Zhan couldn't help but chuckle. Just as he was about to speak, he saw someone approaching quickly from the side. The person came before him and said:
"Clan Head, we have guests. The Great Elder says the visitors are very strong."
Hearing the last sentence, Xiao Zhan's expression became serious. The Xiao Family had once been glorious in the Jia Ma Empire. Although they were now in decline, they still had some 'acquaintances', and among them were not a few powerhouses. However, their attitude towards the Xiao Family was not all friendly. If they were guests, that would be fine, but if they were Enemies, then the current Xiao Family would be truly difficult to handle.
These thoughts flashed through his mind. He forcefully suppressed the worry in his heart and said to Xiao Yan with a smile:
"Yan'er, Father will go and entertain the guests first. We'll talk about Cultivation matters another day."
After speaking, he turned and left, his toes lightly tapping. In a few flashes, he disappeared from Xiao Yan's sight.
"Is this the result of Cultivation? The legendary Martial Arts Masters are probably just like this?"
Xiao Yan's eyes were full of envy as he muttered to himself. Then his eyes flickered, and in his mind, he already envisioned himself starting Cultivation, then Soaring to the Sky, Minor Accomplishment in Three Years, Major Accomplishment in Ten Years, and Invincible in Twenty Years, his Drool almost flowing out.
After a long Time, he came back to his senses, shook his head slightly, and thought to himself:
"I wonder where these guests came from. Father's expression just now seemed a bit off. Could they be old Enemies? I should go and see."
With this thought, Xiao Yan got up and trotted towards the Guest Hall with his Short Legs.
In the Guest Hall, Xiao Zhan saw Gu Yuan beside him and realized he didn't recognize him. But the aura on him was something he had only seen on the Cloud Mist Sect's leader before.
He began to think about when he had met such a person, but he went through everyone he had met and seen in his decades of life and still had no impression of Gu Yuan.
But even so, he didn't dare to neglect him. He cupped his hands and asked:
"May I ask why this brother has come to my Xiao Family?"
Gu Yuan saw Xiao Zhan and found that he was only a Great Dou Master, but in his perception, he was already one of the few powerhouses in this family. Even the other few elderly people were also only Great Dou Master Cultivation Level.
He felt some emotion in his heart. He hadn't expected that the continent's number one clan had fallen to such a state. The entire family couldn't even muster a single Dou Spirit, leaving only a few big cats and kittens.
Looking at this huge contrast, he couldn't help but think of the man who had steadily suppressed both himself and Hun Tiandi. He thought to himself:
"After returning, perhaps I should go and see him. It just so happens there are some questions we can discuss, and at the same Time, let him rest assured that even after a Thousand Years, the Xiao Clan's Legacy still exists on the Continent."
Thinking of this, he gently pulled Xiao Zhan closer and began to make small talk, saying:
"My name is Gu Yuan. Brother Xiao doesn't need to be so formal. Speaking of which, our two families' ancestors were Old Acquaintances, but later, due to various reasons, there was less contact between us."
Hearing this, Xiao Zhan forced a smile. When your Strength is inferior, you can only believe what others say. He pretended to be surprised and asked:
"Oh? I didn't expect us to have this connection. May I ask why Brother Gu has come this Time?"
Gu Yuan pulled Xun'er in front of him and said:
"I have a presumptuous request. I have some things to do, but my daughter is still young and cannot endure hardship with me. I plan to Foster her here with Brother Xiao for a period of Time."
