After a while, Xiao Se stopped cultivating. This Star Domain was essentially an incomplete World, a fragmented Dou Sheng space. If he continued to absorb energy, he feared the internal energy would no longer be able to stabilize, causing the space to collapse.
"Now that this Cultivation Technique has Advanced to the Heaven Rank, it really is incomparable to an Earth RankAdvancedCultivation Technique. With my current cultivation speed, even if I Cultivate step-by-step, I can promote to an Eight-Star Dou Zun in at most a year." A hint of pride appeared at the corner of Xiao Se's mouth, and he immediately thought of the Yan Clan's clan-protecting Heaven RankAdvanced fire-attribute Cultivation Technique in his System storage.
If he took it out for his precious daughter to Cultivate at that time, then Xiao Xue's cultivation speed would definitely improve by leaps and bounds. Also, Queen Medusa's Qi attribute was also fire, so it could be used by her as well.
However, as the Yan Clan's clan-protecting Cultivation Technique, there must be a Restriction left behind by a Dou Sheng expert on it. If he took it out rashly, he feared that not only would he be unable to open it, but it would also send a signal to the Yan Clan. At that time, he would likely face the trouble of the entire Yan Clan, which would be more trouble than it was worth.
This was also the reason why Xiao Se had not taken it out all this time.
"It seems I can only wait until I see Dragon Emperor Zhu Kun next time and ask for his help. With his strength at the Peak of Nine-Star Dou Sheng, the mere Restriction of the Yan Clan cannot do anything to him."
Having made up his mind, Xiao Se stood up and dashed out of the Star Domain.
When Xiao Se walked out of the stone space gate, he discovered that apart from Bibi Dong and the other three women, the passage was already crowded with people, including the Dan Ta Three Giants and some Dou Zun experts he did not recognize.
As for Ban Sheng or Dou Sheng, they did not appear.
"Daddy, are you okay?" Xiao Xue threw herself into Xiao Se's arms.
Xiao Se rubbed Xiao Xue's head, shook his head with a smile, and turned his gaze to the Elders of the Little Pill Tower led by the Dan Ta Three Giants, asking in confusion, "SeniorXuan Yi, what is this about?"
"The commotion from your Breakthrough was a bit large, so everyone was just attracted by you." At this moment, the more Xuan Yi looked at Xiao Se, the more satisfied she was. She thought to herself, if Yao Chen had taken Xiao Se as his disciple back then, he would have likely already been resurrected by now, and he wouldn't have had to suffer betrayal by Xiao Yan or being captured by the Hall of Souls.
As she spoke, Xuan Yi turned her gaze to the Elders of the Little Pill Tower behind her and said, "Everyone, disperse."
The Elders nodded and turned to disappear into the space passage.
Xiao Se realized, and then heard Xuan Yi say, "I didn't expect you to have really subdued the Three Thousand Burning Flame. It seems that before long, after becoming the youngest Peak Eighth-Grade Alchemist on the Fighting Qi Continent, you will become the youngest Ninth-Grade Alchemist."
"Just good fortune." Xiao Se smiled faintly, then said, "Regarding Yao Lao, after I familiarize myself with my surging strength in the next few days, I will set off to save him."
"No rush, no rush. It's good that you've come out of seclusion; I have something to give you." Xuan Yi smiled slightly, walked up to Xiao Se, and took out a name card from her storage ring.
"This is?" Xiao Se looked puzzled.
"Open it and you'll know." A faint smile appeared on Xuan Yi's charming and mature face as she said, "I really didn't expect you to be able to gain that person's attention."
Xuan Yi did not name names, but from her words, it was clear that she held the owner of this name card in high regard.
Xuan Kongzi and Tian Leizi, who were on the side, also nodded in deep agreement.
Xiao Se looked confused, took the name card, and opened it to look. It didn't matter if he didn't look, but one look almost gave him a fright. It was actually written by Xun'er's father, Gu Yuan, inviting him to go to the Ancient Clan in three months to attend Xun'er's coming-of-age ceremony.
It also mentioned that he should bring his daughter, Xiao Xue, along.
What the hell does this old guy want?
"Daddy, what does it say?" Xiao Xue curiously leaned over.
"See for yourselves." Xiao Se handed the name card to Xiao Xue with some helplessness.
Xiao Xue took the name card, and Bibi Dong and the other women also curiously leaned in.
"Daddy, who is this Gu Yuan? Why have I never heard of him? He even wants to see me." Xiao Xue handed the name card to Bibi Dong and turned her gaze to Xiao Se, asking curiously.
Xiao Se's mouth twitched, and he replied, "One of the eight ancient clans, the Clan Chief of the Ancient Clan. Like Senior Dragon Emperor, he is one of the three surviving PeakNine-Star Dou Sheng experts in the World, and Xun'er's father."
Upon hearing this, everyone present, including the Dan Ta Three Giants, gasped.
Bibi Dong, Xiao Yi Xian, and Xiao Xue had all met Dragon Emperor Zhu Kun, and his power was unquestionable. In front of Zhu Kun, it would not be an exaggeration to say that their group were mere ants. Although Qing Lin had not met him, the six words "PeakNine-Star Dou Sheng" alone were enough to represent everything.
As for the Dan Ta Three Giants, although they knew a thing or two about Gu Yuan, when they heard Xiao Se casually mention Gu Yuan and another PeakNine-Star Dou Sheng expert, they still couldn't help but be shocked.
They never expected that Xiao Se actually knew two PeakNine-Star Dou Sheng experts.
With such a terrifying backer, let alone the Pill Tower, even if facing the Hun Clan, he didn't need to be afraid.
"Daddy, who is Xun'er again! Is she another little mother you found for me?" After a brief moment of shock, Xiao Xue's little brain immediately shifted its focus to Xun'er.
Not to mention her, even Bibi Dong had never heard Xiao Se mention Xun'er.
"Xiao Se, I am also very curious." Bibi Dong wrapped her jade hand around Xiao Se's other arm, her noble face revealing a dangerous arc. She could tolerate Xiao Se having a harem, but hiding things from her was not allowed.
"Big Brother, Qing Lin also wants to know." Qing Lin also leaned over, looking at Xiao Se with expectation.
"Uh." Xiao Se's mouth twitched, and his gaze swept to the Dan Ta Three Giants opposite him. How could he speak about this in front of outsiders?
Perhaps sensing Xiao Se's embarrassment, the three of Xuan Yi greeted Xiao Se and left the space passage.
Seeing the three of Xuan Yi leave, Xiao Se breathed a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to speak, Xiao Yi Xian laughed out loud from the side. She smiled and said, "I know Xun'er. Come to think of it, back when we were at Jia Nan Academy, she was good sisters with me, Zhuqing, Xiao Yu, Zi Yan, and Die."
"Then what is her relationship with Daddy?" Xiao Xue asked Xiao Yi Xian.
"I'm not entirely sure about the specifics, probably similar to a childhood sweetheart relationship like Xiao Yu's, growing up in the same courtyard. However, the two of them didn't seem very close before; your daddy even kept her at a distance for a time and basically didn't say a few words to her, until later it got better. In short, I can tell that Xun'er truly likes your daddy. But as for the specifics, I'm afraid only your daddy and Xun'er herself know." Xiao Yi Xian said everything she knew.
As she spoke, Xiao Yi Xian turned her gaze to Xiao Se. The other three women also cast expectant gazes at Xiao Se.
Being stared at by four beauties like this, Xiao Se felt like he was on pins and needles. A moment later, he let out a long sigh and recounted his experiences with Xun'er.
Once these words were spoken, the expressions of the women varied.
Xiao Xue and Xiao Yi Xian revealed expressions of disdain, as if looking at scum, feeling that Xiao Se had actually abducted a four-year-old girl.
Qing Lin, however, expressed understanding; after all, she was also nine years old when she was saved by Xiao Se. The feeling of being given the first ray of light in her life by Xiao Se when she was at her most helpless was still vivid in her mind.
As for Bibi Dong, she rarely revealed a lonely expression. She had originally thought that her experience with Xiao Se was unique, but she didn't expect there to be another one.
