Reunion with Xiao Xun'er!

Just as Jia Lie Bi and Ao Ba Pa were plotting in secret.

In the mountain range outside Wutan City.

There was a dark cave, and a phantom figure sat cross-legged within it.

The phantom figure was almost completely merged with the night. Without close inspection, it would be impossible to detect.

This phantom figure was Nameless!

At this moment, Nameless was refining the medicinal power of the Yin Yang Barrier Breaking Pill within his body, charging with all his might toward the Eight-star Dou Huang realm.

Ever since taking the Yin Yang Barrier Breaking Pill, Nameless had felt surging waves of energy flowing through his limbs and bones.

As Nameless frantically refined the energy within his body, a fierce gust burst from him, then swept outward in all directions with him at its center.

After taking the Yin Yang Barrier Breaking Pill, Nameless had remained seated in this cave, his body utterly motionless.

Within the silent cave, only deep, muffled rumbles could be heard.

As Nameless continuously refined the Yin Yang Barrier Breaking Pill, his dantian rapidly expanded at a terrifying speed.

A moment later, the powerful energy directly broke through the shackles within Nameless's body.

In an instant, an extremely powerful aura spread from Nameless's dantian, coursed through his limbs and bones, and burst out of his body!

Boom! Boom!

The powerful aura swept outward, and the nearby rocks were struck by it.

In but an instant, they shattered into countless fragments.

Terrifying ripples of energy spread in all directions.

At that moment, the entire cave shook violently.

Crack!

A fissure suddenly spread across the stone wall beside him, as though the cave might collapse at any moment.

Whoosh!

At that moment, Nameless, who had been sitting cross-legged in the cave, suddenly opened his eyes. Sharp, blazing light shot from them as though it were tangible.

At the same time, a terrifying and vast aura surged wildly from Nameless's body.

Mountain Splitting Palm!

As his aura erupted, Nameless suddenly threw back his head and let out a clear cry. Carrying majestic Dou Qi, it exploded through the cave like thunder!

Boom!

As the cry rang out, powerful energy ripples burst from his body. In an instant, smoke and dust filled the air.

Under the destruction of this energy, the entire cave began to rumble.

For a time, thunderous crashes echoed throughout the cave. Cracks spread across the massive rocks, eventually engulfing the entire cave!

After that palm strike, the cave was left in ruins.

As the dust gradually settled, a black figure flashed out like a ghost before standing proudly.

At this moment, Nameless's face was filled with excitement.

His strength had now reached the Eight-star Dou Huang realm.

Moreover, a trace of the Yin Yang Barrier Breaking Pill's medicinal power still remained within his body.

With that medicinal power, Nameless was confident that he could make another breakthrough in a short time.

"Now that I've broken through, it's time to return and protect Master."

A moment later, Nameless gradually suppressed his excitement and flew toward the Mittel Auction House.

In order to break through smoothly without being disturbed, Nameless had chosen to make his breakthrough outside Wutan City.

Now that his breakthrough had succeeded, thoughts of his master's safety left Nameless no time to linger. He flew straight toward the courtyard where Nameless was staying.

Moonlight flowed like water, spilling through the gaps between the leaves.

The bright yet chilly moonlight fell upon Flowing Cloud's face, making his handsome features even more captivating.

Inside the pavilion, Flowing Cloud held a magical core as the devouring power frantically drew out its energy.

At that moment, a black figure suddenly appeared before Flowing Cloud.

Flowing Cloud abruptly opened his eyes and looked at the newcomer.

"Nameless, you broke through?" Flowing Cloud asked with surprise. The newcomer was indeed Nameless.

"This subordinate did not fail Master's trust. I have successfully broken through to the Eight-star Dou Huang realm." Perhaps because his strength had soared, even Nameless, who was usually sparing with words and smiles, showed a faint smile at this moment.

"Good!"

"Nameless, you truly haven't disappointed me."

Flowing Cloud was overjoyed. With Nameless having broken through to the Eight-star Dou Huang realm, his own life and safety had gained another layer of protection.

"Thanks to Master's Yin Yang Barrier Breaking Pill, this subordinate was able to break through to the Eight-star Dou Huang realm so quickly."

There was not a trace of pride on Nameless's face. He knew that without the Yin Yang Barrier Breaking Pill Flowing Cloud had given him, he had no idea how long it would have taken to break through to the Eight-star Dou Huang realm.

"Since you've already broken through, we'll set off for the Magical Beast Mountain Range first thing tomorrow morning."

Traveling to the Magical Beast Mountain Range for training had long been part of Flowing Cloud's plan.

Now that Nameless had broken through, it was time to depart.

"Hm?"

Suddenly, Nameless's expression shifted. Somewhat surprised, he said, "Master, someone is heading this way. It's that young girl from last time."

"Xiao Xun'er?"

Flowing Cloud froze for a moment, then immediately understood that Nameless was referring to Xiao Xun'er.

Why had Xiao Xun'er come here?

Flowing Cloud was somewhat puzzled. Could she be here to deliver treasures to him?

At that moment, Flowing Cloud suddenly remembered that Xiao Xun'er still owed him compensation.

Could it be that she had come this time to deliver that compensation?

At this thought, an inscrutable smile appeared on Flowing Cloud's lips.

"Master, then I'll take my leave first."

Thinking of the Eight-star Dou Huang expert protecting Xiao Xun'er from the shadows, Nameless could not help showing a wary expression.

"Mm." Flowing Cloud nodded. Since Xiao Xun'er had come, the Shadow Emperor would naturally be following behind her.

With Nameless hidden in the dark, the other side would be more wary.

As soon as Flowing Cloud finished speaking, Nameless's figure gradually vanished from before his eyes.

Just as Nameless disappeared, a purple figure slowly appeared in the courtyard, floating in midair.

Seeing the purple figure before him, Flowing Cloud's eyes lit up.

Beneath her purple dress, a pair of round, jade-like, snow-white calves traced alluring curves through the air.

Moonlight spilled down onto the young girl's exquisite face, making her seem like a goddess beneath the moon—gorgeous and mysterious.

"Little Sister Xun Er!"

"We meet again."

Looking at Xiao Xun'er, who floated in the air like a blue spirit, Flowing Cloud's lips curled into a teasing smile.

Sensing the aura emanating from Flowing Cloud, a trace of surprise appeared on Xiao Xun'er's beautiful face.

This guy seems to have become much stronger again!

Xiao Xun'er was deeply shocked.

Just who is he? Why is his cultivation speed so terrifying?

Even among the eight ancient clans, there seems to be no one so monstrous.

"Flowing Cloud, when exactly will you help Brother Xiao Yan recover his talent?" Xiao Xun'er asked indifferently after slowly suppressing her surprise.

"Xiao Yan's matter is only a small issue. As long as he agrees to my conditions, I can do it at any time."

With a faint smile on his lips, Flowing Cloud then looked teasingly at Xiao Xun'er.

"Little Sister Xun Er, have you forgotten something?"

"Where is the compensation you promised me?"

"I've been waiting rather anxiously these days, you know?"

Now that Nameless's strength had also reached the Eight-star Dou Huang realm, Flowing Cloud became even more brazen in teasing Xiao Xun'er.

"If there is no compensation, then Xiao Yan's matter will be rather difficult to handle."
