Chapter 176: Yin Yang Sacred Spirit Flame
When he said those words, Xiao Wen immediately understood his meaning.
"Young Master, I understand!"
With that, he retrieved a jade talisman from his storage ring.
"This is something the clan leader gave me when I returned to the clan. Using this, Young Master can contact the clan leader directly."
"Oh?" Hearing this, Xiao Yan's previously somber face showed a hint of surprise.
It seemed the clan truly valued his rescue of the Yin Yang Evil Saint. Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated, took the jade talisman, and infused it with his Dou Qi.
Before long, the talisman lit up, and an image appeared before Xiao Yan.
"What do you want?" Xiao Shaobei asked while adjusting his robe and glancing at Xiao Yan.
"Uh?" Xiao Yan's mind raced with thoughts. Was Xiao Shaobei just... doing something suspicious?
He considered many possibilities, including the rumor that this guy might have let the Soul Clan's Holy Maiden escape. But this wasn't something he could address right now.
Instead, his face turned aggrieved.
"Clan Leader, I've been bullied outside!"
"Someone bullied you?" Xiao Shaobei frowned slightly.
"Don't you have Xiao Wen and Xiao Wu with you? Who could overpower two Half Saints?"
"It was a Dou Saint," Xiao Yan replied obediently.
"A Dou Saint? Didn't you mention our Xiao Clan name?" Xiao Shaobei's face showed some dissatisfaction.
"I did, but that guy completely disregarded our clan and even insulted you, saying you're nothing," Xiao Yan added some spice to the story.
With his experience, Xiao Shaobei immediately recognized that Xiao Yan was fanning the flames. However, he didn't seem to mind and instead looked at Xiao Yan calmly.
"How many stars does this Dou Saint have? What's their background?"
"One star Dou Saint. A rogue disciple of the Seven Colored Demon Saint. Likely self taught," Xiao Yan replied slowly.
"Even a rogue Dou Saint should've heard of the Xiao Clan's name. Yet this person ignored our warnings and even tried to kill you?" Xiao Shaobei asked, his frown deepening.
"Exactly. This person showed no respect for our clan," Xiao Yan nodded.
"I see." Xiao Shaobei nodded slightly and said in a calm tone, "I'll send a few experts to assist you!"
"Thank you, Clan Leader. Your power is unmatched, and you'll surely ascend to the rank of Dou Emperor soon!" Xiao Yan cupped his fists respectfully.
"Alright, enough flattery. I've told you before, we're equals," Xiao Shaobei waved dismissively, though the corners of his mouth curved upward slightly.
"Even so, you're still a senior I must humbly learn from," Xiao Yan said with a light smile.
"Haha," Xiao Shaobei chuckled lightly.
"I'll send a few more experts to make sure people remember the Xiao Clan. It's been too long since we made a public appearance, and it seems even stray dogs think they can provoke us."
"Thank you, Clan Leader!" Xiao Yan bowed deeply once more.
Xiao Shaobei nodded, preparing to end the connection. However, he suddenly changed the topic:
"You mentioned the Seven Colored Demon Saint. Did you find their inheritance?"
"Yes. Does the Clan Leader know the Seven Colored Demon Saint?" Xiao Yan asked, surprised.
"Of course not. This senior had already passed away before I was born. However, the Seven Colored Clan is worthy of respect."
As he spoke, Xiao Shaobei suddenly gave Xiao Yan a meaningful, playful look.
"Did you find a descendant of the Seven Colored Clan?"
"I did," Xiao Yan replied, slightly puzzled. Why would a Nine Star Dou Saint care about such a thing?
"Male or female?" Xiao Shaobei asked again.
"Female."
"Jie jie jie, kid, you're quite lucky!" Xiao Shaobei's expression showed a knowing grin every man could understand.
Xiao Yan quickly caught on and returned the smile with mutual understanding.
"Jie jie jie!"
"Kid, enjoy your 'stallion lifestyle' in the Northwest Continent. But once you reach Dou Venerate, the clan will arrange a real trial for you," Xiao Shaobei said, winking before cutting off the communication. Or rather, the talisman connection.
"'Stallion lifestyle'? I'm spreading love across the Northwest Continent," Xiao Yan muttered, rolling his eyes. He then recalled Xiao Shaobei's parting words.
"A trial after I become a Dou Venerate, huh? Well, that's good. Being constantly sheltered can make one complacent."
As he pondered, he suddenly sensed a faint groan behind him.
Turning around, he saw that the aura of the First Generation Medusa, Caiyu, had weakened significantly.
"Senior!" Xiao Yan's expression changed slightly as he saw her pale face.
"I'm fine," Caiyu replied, shaking her head slightly. Her face was ashen, but her eyes remained bright.
"It's just a loss of some vitality."
"Just some vitality?" Xiao Yan squinted slightly.
"And some lifespan." Caiyu smiled bitterly at his reaction.
"My time is limited. I only hope to see the rise of the Swallowing Python Clan before my death," she said, glancing softly at Xiao Yan.
"You brat, I've already done my part to convince the old crone for you. Whether you succeed or not is up to you," she added with a sly smile.
"Don't worry, Senior," Xiao Yan replied with a confident grin.
After giving the three women nearby a brief nod, he turned to Xiao Wen and Xiao Wu.
"Guard me while I cultivate."
With that, he sat cross legged on the ground.
Although he had refined the Myriad Beast Spirit Flame and created a new Heavenly Flame in the spatial realm, he had yet to fully absorb it.
Moreover, with the acquisition of the Myriad Beast Spirit Flame, his Crimson Flame Demon Physique could be further strengthened.
As these thoughts crossed his mind, he extended his palm, revealing a flame that was black and white, interwoven with streaks of seven colored light.
"From now on, this new Heavenly Flame will be called Yin Yang Sacred Spirit Flame," Xiao Yan murmured, naming the powerful new flame born from the fusion of two Heavenly Flames.
This new Heavenly Flame was undoubtedly more potent than the Bone Chilling Flame of Medicine Elder. Both the Yin Yang Sacred Flame and Myriad Beast Spirit Flame possessed immense auxiliary abilities. Combined, they dramatically boosted Xiao Yan's recovery abilities.
As he began absorbing the flame, the half ruined ancient city grew quiet once more. Only a few people remained, watching Xiao Yan silently.
Xiao Wen and Xiao Wu kept a vigilant eye on their surroundings, while the First Generation Medusa observed Xiao Yan with an investor's confidence.
Meanwhile, the Snake Clan elder's eyes gleamed with sharp intelligence as they assessed Xiao Yan's strength and allies, including Xiao Wen and Xiao Wu. They seemed deep in thought.
Yue Mei and Hua She'er gazed at Xiao Yan with admiration and awe.
The Snake Clan revered strength, and the power this young man displayed inspired their respect and even a hint of infatuation.
At the same time, they thought about the Seven Colored Swallowing Python entrusted to Xiao Yan by their ancestor. What did their queen think of this young man?
Seven days passed in the blink of an eye.
In the distance, strange ripples appeared in the air, breaking the stillness of the ancient city.
In the next moment, over ten figures appeared in the sky.
Each of them radiated an overwhelming aura, as vast as the ocean.
At the same time, Xiao Yan, who had been in seclusion for seven days, finally opened his eyes!
