"Why is it suddenly so cold…"
The Xiao clan disciples were startled, then everyone's eyes widened seeing Mo Li's figure sculpted in the ice layer.
Even Ge Ye and Nalan Yanran's hearts sank completely; a chill rushed through their spines seeing the Mo Li figure standing in the middle of them was frozen without them being aware.
"I hope you don't regret it,"
Mo Li said, looking at Shen Yi and Xiao Zhan, and then he turned around and left the hall, waving his hand. Nalan Yanran also followed him hurriedly while bowing her head.
"Brother Yi, killing him here will make our Xiao clan a target of the Misty Cloud Sect."
At this moment Xiao Yan spoke as he walked beside him, looking at the frozen figure of Mo Li. The rest of the Xiao clan members' faces changed, and even Xiao Zhan fell into deep hesitation.
"Don't worry, I will take care of this matter; no sect will hold the Xiao clan accountable for something I did."
Shen Yi spoke as he glanced at Xiao Yan and then looked at the void behind Xiao Xun'er; then he turned around and left.
'This girl is really sharp; she just saved her ancient clan.'
He thought to himself as he sensed the restrained killing intent from the guardian protecting Xiao Xun'er.
After that, he turned around and left the main hall without saying anything else. Xiao Zhan then ordered to take care of the Mo Li corpse and then dismissed the rest of the disciples.
After a while inside the Xiao Xun'er courtyard,
She glanced at the figure in front of her and asked solemnly, "Uncle Ling, why did you ask for my permission to kill him?"
Ling Yu hesitated and then took a deep breath and knelt down and spoke, "Miss, I have a hunch that this boy will become a huge threat to our ancient Gu clan."
"Why is that? Have you seen something?" Xiao Xun'er's pupils shrank, and then she asked solemnly,
Ling Yu hurriedly nodded and said,
"He is hiding his strength with the attack he just pulled inside the hall. I can infer that he is a top dou king or even a dou emperor level like me. Only by reaching such a realm can one control their dou qi and resonate with heaven and earth."
Xiao Xun'er's brow furrowed tightly, and her expression became thoughtful. Ling Yu then glanced at her and added,
"His talent is extremely outrageous, and there's no doubt that he will rise up as another dominating figure like the patriarch. Miss, at least let me inform back to the clan if you don't want me to deal with him."
Xiao Xun'er was surprised to hear such an evaluation of Shen Yi from her guardian's mouth; she didn't expect her guardian to compare the young boy's talent with her father's, and then she took a deep breath and nodded.
"Okay, you can inform the clan, but wait for him to leave the Xiao clan. I don't want any trouble near big brother Xiao Yan."
The Ling Yu sighed in relief and nodded, "Yes, Miss."
After speaking, his figure flashed and disappeared, leaving behind thoughtful Xiao Xun'er in the room.
On the other hand,
Inside the guest courtyard,
Shen Yi's brow furrowed as he sat cross-legged on the bed. 'It seems I have to clear this misty cloud sect trouble before going to the Jia Nan academy. Also, I can just simply visit the misty cloud sect, warn them, and then let them hand over any sixth-rank item.'
Just as he thought of Yun Yun, he immediately remembered something.
'No wait… I remember there is a Rank 6 Amethyst winged lion in the core of the forest, and its companion purple amethyst crystal is probably a Rank 6 treasure. Can I exchange it for the rank 6 treasure? I can get the purple beast flame also with it.'
He thought of the purple crystal and beast flame obtained by Xiao Yan. Although he isn't planning to intercept the heaven and earth flame opportunities belonging to Xiao Yan, the purple beast flame and amethyst crystal are not on the list.
"Probably it won't change the major plotline, and he will definitely encounter other opportunities if he doesn't get these two."
Shen Yi muttered thoughtfully, and then he hurriedly stood up and walked outside the courtyard.
He informed Xiao Zhan that he is leaving for a few months and also assured him that he will resolve the Misty Cloud Sect issue.
After that, he flew outside the Wutan city toward the magic beast mountain range. While he didn't know that a message was sent to the central plains after he left, it contained all his information.
On the other hand, Xiao Yan also encountered a fate-changing opportunity after finding that the culprit of his dou qi regression is a mysterious old man in his ring.
…
A few days later,
Inside the core of the magic mountain range,
Rumbling!!!
Void shook with a heavy rumbling sound; countless lightning sparks whipped the surrounding void, and at the same time, purple flame scattered around like a domain.
Meanwhile, a large area of the forest below is burning with purple and dark flames, while some areas are frozen.
"Human, how dare you invade my territory and demand my companion's treasure? You are deceiving too much."
A burly roar mixed with anger and resentment spread around.
A purple lion beast was revealed with a gigantic body of seven or eight meters long. The surface of its body is covered by a layer of purple-colored crystal, which reflected the sunlight in all directions.
But its condition now is very bad, as the crystal layer on its body is broken like a mirror, and scorched and bleeding marks on its different parts of the body made it extremely angry.
It was taking deep breaths while staring at the boy in front with a similar condition as it. The boy is none other than Shen Yi, who fought the winged lion for three days constantly in order to convince him to hand over the treasure.
