Chapter 1322: Hun Ya
The two pair of
eyes interacted with each other. There was a flame flowing within each
of their eyes. It appeared as though the space between the two of them
had gradually become hot…
“Puff!”
The four eyes faced each
other. A moment later, a cluster of flames suddenly materialized out of
nowhere between the two individuals. The ripple from the flame
incinerated some nearby tables and chairs into ashes…
Xiao Yan’s
body trembled when the flame burst apart. A solemn expression flashed
across his face. The Heavenly Flame within the body of this red-dressed
woman was likely extraordinary.
“What happened?” The Little Fairy
Doctor quickly arrived by Xiao Yan’s side. Her eyes followed his gaze
and paused on the group of unfamiliar people before softly asking.
“Nothing…”
Xiao
Yan shook his head. He gave the red-dressed lady a deep look. Although
he greatly coveted Heavenly Flames, he was not a fool. This woman was
someone from the Yan clan Yao Lao had mentioned. Although Xiao Yan felt
extremely unfamiliar with this clan, a faction that could be ranked
alongside the Gu clan and the Hun clan likely possessed a powerful
strength. He would not offend them because of a Heavenly Flame.
“Let’s go.”
There
were many pairs of eyes within the wine shop. Xiao Yan did not wish to
remain for long. Hence, he turned around and walked out of the building.
The Little Fairy Doctor and the rest hesitated for a moment before
closely following him.
“Huo Zhi, how is it?” The white-robed man smiled and asked when he saw the backs of Xiao Yan’s group leaving.
“A
very strong Heavenly Flame…” The red-robed lady called Huo Zhi softly
replied. A faint ripple rose within her quiet lake-like eyes. “If I have
the chance, I would really like to exchange blows with him. I want to
see whether this Red Lotus Ye Flame, which is ranked seventh on the
Heavenly Flame Ranking, or his Heavenly Flame is stronger…”
“You
are only interested in these things.” The white-robed man helplessly
shook his head and said. “This Xiao Yan should be a member of the Xiao
clan. It is unexpected that the clan, whose bloodline has become waste,
is actually able to produce such a person. It is really unbelievable.”
“The
Xiao clan had the closest relationship with the Gu clan back then, but
that was when they were strong. The friendship between the clans will
forever be built on the foundation of having similar strength. If there
wasn’t opposition from some of the Elders within the Gu clan, the tomb
of Xiao Xuan would have been forcefully opened by them…” That
gentle-looking man grinned and said. “The tomb of a peak expert is
something that even the Gu clan cannot resist.”
“Those are merely
some radicals. There is no need to place everyone in the same category.”
The white-robed man shook his head. He stretched his lazy waist and
laughed, “I am still most interested in the Heavenly Tomb that is opened
once every twenty years. Although the Heavenly Tomb is within the Gu
Realm, the members of the eight clans are qualified to enter it
according to the agreement from back then. The tomb of Xiao Xuan is also
inside. I wonder if there will be any one who will truly be able to
barge in there…”
“Aye, I wonder if the members of the other clans
have arrived. Normally, they will not miss such a big event.” That
rough-eyebrowed man nodded and spoke.
“Who cares about them. If
they do not come, we will have fewer competitors. Let’s leave.” The
white-clothed man curled his lips. After which, he stood up and walked
out of the building. The few people behind him followed at a steady
pace.
“It looks like the situation is even more troublesome than
what I have heard. Most of these eight great commanders hold a grudge
with you. Today, if the Elder from the Gu clan had not appeared, it is
likely that Lin Xiu would have attacked you…” The Little Fairy Doctor
frowned and spoke on their way back to their house.
“It is only
natural for there to be trouble. If everything proceeded smoothly within
this Gu clan, I would feel troubled.” Xiao Yan laughed. He was
unconcerned about those eight great commanders. That Lin Xiu might be a
six star Dou Zun, but he still did not pose a threat from Xiao Yan’s
point of view. The only person among these eight great commanders whom
Xiao Yan felt a little worried about was the first commander, who had
yet to show himself.
“The ones I am worried about aren’t these
eight great commanders. Instead, I am worried about the four great
generals. They are the most talented people among the younger generation
of the Gu clan. According to their potential, they are also the ones
with the greatest possibility to become the Black Submerged King. You
should be aware that the lowest requirement for each Black Submerged
King is to reach the Ban Sheng class…” The Little Fairy Doctor spewed
more information with a solemn voice.
“Ban Sheng, huh…”
Xiao
Yan momentarily stopped walking. His dark-black eyes were filled with a
graveness. The so-called four great generals were the true troublesome
individuals. Facing these monster-like people really caused Xiao Yan to
feel some pressure.
“If it’s a blessing, it’s not trouble. If it’s
trouble, there is no escaping it… it is pointless to say all this now.
If trouble wishes to find us, there will be nothing we can do.
Regardless of whether it is for the reputation of the Falling Star
Pavilion or my Xiao clan, there are some things that are unavoidable.”
Xiao Yan shook his head. The four great generals might indeed be
troublesome, but they weren’t enough to cause Xiao Yan to step back
because of the difficulty. There was nothing that he had not seen during
these years. There were really not many people among the same
generation that could get him to withdraw without fighting.
Even the true geniuses from the Gu clan would not be able to force him to back down.
“Huh?”
The
fist under Xiao Yan’s sleeve suddenly tightened when this thought
flashed across his heart. It was at this moment that he suddenly paused.
It was as though he had sensed someone arriving. He abruptly lifted his
head, and his gaze landed on the end of a small path in the forest.
Three figures in black robes were randomly standing there. A dangerous
feeling quietly spread from them.
The Little Fairy Doctor and the
rest also sensed something when Xiao Yan discovered the three. The Dou
Qi within their bodies began to circulate.
“You are that Xiao Yan from the Xiao clan right?”
The
leader of the three black-robed individuals shook his black robe
slightly and a somewhat shady laugh was slowly emitted. The laughter did
not sound old. Clearly, its owner was not some old demon.
“Who are you?” Xiao Yan knit his brows and asked.
“Ha ha, I thought that you would have deep memories of us…” The black-robed leader laughed when he heard Xiao Yan’s question.
Xiao
Yan’s expression sank when he heard this response. His eyes carefully
swept over the three of them. A familiar feeling surged into his heart,
causing his expression to become dense. “People from the Hall of Souls?”
“Compared
to this name, I would prefer to hear you call us the Hun clan…” The
black-robed man laughed. However, his laughter contained a sinister
intent that could not be hidden.
Xiao Yan’s expression was
ice-cold. He started at these three people in a dense manner. Dou Qi
swiftly circulated within his body. It was unexpected that he would meet
people from the Hall of Souls here!
“There is no need to act like
this. The task of capturing you should not be done by me. Therefore, I
also do not have any intention of intervening. I have only come here
because I wished to see how far the Xiao clan, which had firmly
suppressed my Hun clan, has fallen…” The black-robed man grinned.
“You can get lost after seeing what you want!”
The
Little Fairy Doctor coldly laughed. She clenched her hand, and a vast
and mighty Dou Qi agglomerated into a Dou Qi whip in her hand. Her hand
was ruthlessly swung. The long whip penetrated through air and
explosively shot toward the black-robed person.
“Presumptuous!”
The
other two figures coldly cried out when they saw the Little Fairy
Doctor attack. They shook their sleeves and a clear crashing sound
appeared. Two dark-black chains rushed out like poisonous snakes. They
ruthlessly collided with the long Dou Qi whip.
“Bang!”
A frightening wind was created when they collided. The surrounding trees were immediately turned into dust…
“The
reason I have come is not to attack you. All I wish to do is give you
advice. Opposing my Hun clan will not lead to a good end…” The
black-robed leader merely smiled when the blows of both parties were
exchanged. He raised his head a little. A pale skinny young face was
revealed under the black Doupeng. At this moment, the face that was
revealed contained a dense smirk.
“Relax, sooner or later, you will swallow these words of yours.” Xiao Yan calmly replied.
“Ke
ke, I really hope for that day. However, I think that your final fate
will not be much different from Xiao Xuan…” The black-robed man softly
laughed. His body slowly became illusory with this laugh. A moment
later, it completely disappeared in a strange manner.
“Remember my
name, Hun Ya. My ancestor was one of those who had seriously injured
Xiao Xuan back then, resulting in his death. Therefore, this time
around, the person who will finish you off will likely be me… this is
fate. You will not be able to escape it. Ha ha.”
A faint laugh was
slowly emitted from the empty space after the three black-robed figures
disappeared. Finally, it resounded over the entire place. It was a long
time later before it slowly disappeared.
Xiao Yan was without
expression. His gaze only withdrew from the spot where those three had
disappeared after the laugh had scattered. After which, he walked toward
the house without a single word, but no one saw the clenched fist under
his sleeve. A fierce glint flashed within his dark-black eyes.
“Hun
Ya huh… since this is the case, the debt that your ancestor owed will
be paid by you. The Gu Realm possesses the tomb of ancestor Xiao Xuan.
Hence, let this place become the place where you will be buried!”
The
Little Fairy Doctor’s group studied Xiao Yan’s back. Although Xiao Yan
was remaining quiet, they could sense a dense killing intent seeping
from his body. Clearly, Hun Ya had really sparked the murderous desire
in Xiao Yan’s heart.
“This fellow will regret it…”
