Sea King Goes Fishing

The Dou Qi Academy was eventually established, with the Primary Academy springing up in numerous major cities.

These major cities originally had Dou Zong level experts, many of whom were graduates of the Jia Nan Academy. They either had Dou Zun power above them or were suppressed every day, so they did not resist joining a more powerful Dou Qi Academy.

Meanwhile, the interconnected community of interests sprang into action, with Dou Zun roaming the continent, constantly building Space Wormhole to connect all the cities where the Primary Academy were located.

Middle Academy are mostly located in areas where Dou Zun) exists.

Because Dou Zun can traverse space at a speed that Dou Zong cannot match, Middle Academy are generally located outside cities, in the wilderness where the World Energy is abundant.

The higher academies were managed by Peak Dou Zun —the academies were newly established and lacked manpower, so Xiao Yan couldn't assign a Dou Sheng to each High School.

It's worth mentioning that the Lei Clan took advantage of the situation and had Mang Tianchi, the former dean of the Jia Nan Academy, join the Dou Qi Academy, bringing with him a group of older Dou Zun with low potential.

For the Lei Clan, these Dou Zun were hopeless in breaking through to Dou Sheng, and were also old, so they were basically beings that could be discarded. But for the Dou Qi Academy, they were enough to serve as the dean of a Middle Academy.

Of course, all the Dou Zun of the Lei Clan were well aware of their situation and status, and had no intention of turning the academy into the private property of the Lei Clan. They would only conscientiously serve as "deans".

The Yao Clan also joined the Alchemy Department of the Dou Qi Academy, becoming one of the two giants in the Alchemy Department Pill Tower. The Old Yao was busy mediating between them.

As for Xiao Yan, he has been taking care of the child with Xiao Yi Xian.

Qing Lin also served him. Even though she was now a Dou Sheng Expert, she had never shaken off her identity as a maid and always called Xiao Yan" Young Master".

It was another ordinary day. Xiao Yan gradually woke up to Qing Lin's soft calls, and then a voice came from his arms.

When do you plan to give her a formal status?

What came into view was a pair of beautiful, gentle Beautiful Eyes, which held a hint of resentment and helplessness, making Xiao Yan feel a little guilty.

This doesn't just refer to the Qing Lin; there's a whole string of them after that!

So Xiao Yan reluctantly begged his understanding Xian'er for forgiveness, and with her tacit approval, he embarked on the irreversible path of Sea King.

Qing Lin has no relatives, and the people she knows are all people Xiao Yan knows. She is not even willing to hold a wedding with Xiao Yan and only wants to be a maid.

However, since she was a maid, she had to obey. Xiao Yan directly used his power, Qing Lin had no choice but to comply.

After living shamelessly for a few months, Xiao Yan was kicked out of the Xiao Family to deal with his romantic entanglements.

Just then, the Gu Clan made some moves, so Xiao Yan sought out Gu Xun'er and strolled around the Ancient Realm with her.

It must be admitted that Ancient Realm a beautiful place with clear waters, lush mountains, fragrant flowers, and pleasant scenery, truly a paradise on earth and a great place for vacation and leisure.

The Gu Clan had some reaction to the Dou Qi Academy, but it seemed to have been suppressed by Gu Yuan and Gu Xun'er, and it didn't reach Xiao Yan's ears.

Furthermore, the Gu Clan also sent some of its descendants to enroll in the Primary Academy.

These ethnic groups also possess the Dou Di Bloodline, and their offspring may well have the potential to soar to great heights after reverting to their ancestral form. The number of these ethnic groups is also an extremely important part of the Ancient Race's heritage.

The Dou Di Bloodline of the ethnic group itself is actually very weak. If they fall in love with someone from another ethnic group, that trace of Dou Di Bloodline will most likely be completely lost.

This is also a major reason why every single Ancient Race has completely isolated themselves from the world. In the eyes of the old stubborn, this action by the Gu Clan is undoubtedly digging their own grave.

In reality, those ethnic groups could not possibly have access to Heavenly Grade Cultivation Method among the Ancient Race. Their general strength was roughly at Ling Ying's level, and their highest cultivation techniques were only Di Tier Low, or even possibly only Xuan Tier.

If you get into the Dou Qi Academy, your future achievements will definitely be even greater.

However, this is a change. For established powers that have a long history, they can remain inactive and live off their past achievements for a long time. But if they want to be proactive and carry out reforms, they are more likely to collapse.

It's really impressive that Gu Yuan was able to make such a big decision.

Perhaps Gu Xun'er put in a lot of effort?

Thinking of this, Xiao Yan asked, "Quite a few people from the Gu Clan have signed up for the Dou Qi Academy, haven't they?"

Gu Xun'er tilted her head, her long, smooth hair falling onto Xiao Yan, and said mischievously, "Brother Xiao Yan, you must remember to give them special treatment! Otherwise..."

Xiao Yan waited for a while, but Xun'er just smiled like a little fox and didn't finish speaking, which made Xiao Yan's heart itch.

"What else would happen?" Xiao Yan said, pulling Xun'er into his arms.

Gu Xun'er placed her hands on Xiao Yan's Xiao Yan, stared straight into his eyes, and snorted, "I'll tell Uncle Xiao Zhan that you bullied me."

Xiao Yan reached out and gently tapped Xun'er's rosy cheek, saying, "Marry me?"

"..."

Gu Xun'er slumped in Xiao Yan's arms, her mind blank. She stared at Xiao Yan for a long time before finally smiling and saying, "Okay!"

"But, is it with the other sisters? Or is it one show per person?"

Looking at the smiling Xun'er, Xiao Yan patted Xun'er repeatedly and said, "You are all unique to me, so of course each of you will get a turn..."

"Ugh... Brother Xiao Yan! You're bad!"

The couple's wedding didn't attract much attention and was generally quite ordinary. However, Xiao Yan made a promise to Gu Yuan:

The problem of Origin Qi will be solved. Within a hundred years, there will definitely be two portions of Origin Qi to support Gu Yuan and Xun'er in breaking through to the Dou Emperor.

The Gu Clan Elders Council had nothing to say but to offer their blessings.

After staying with the Gu Clan for a while, Xiao Yan headed to the Beast Region.

Three Great Beast Races have intricate connections with Xiao Yan. The Nine Nether Nether Python Clan territory even built a statue of Xiao Yan and holds a grand banquet in front of the statue every year. The specific date is the day when Yao Xiaotian and Xiao Yan first met.

Xiao Yan didn't set foot there. He glanced at Queen Medusa from afar and saw that she was still cultivating, so he didn't go over.

So embarrassing!

After escaping the Nine Nether Nether Python Clan territory, Xiao Yan followed the direction and found the location of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix.

To be honest, Xiao Yan has never set foot in the territory of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix. Now that he has broken through to the Dou Emperor, it would be a good time for him to go and take a look. Perhaps he can even bring some food to feed Zi Yan.

As soon as it released its aura from afar, the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan erupted in chaos, but quickly calmed down as if nothing had happened.

"Tsk..." Xiao Yan clicked his tongue, stepped into the territory of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix, and shouted, "Where is the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan Patriarch?"

The Heavenly Phoenix Wings, which had followed Xiao Yan for a long time, popped out from his back. Xiao Yan did not transform into a giant ten thousand feet tall, but simply hovered quietly in mid-air. His invincible aura suppressed the entire Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan.

A few breaths later, a figure dressed in a purple-gold robe flew out from the clan's territory, facing Xiao Yan. A pair of golden eyes, which barely retained a trace of majesty, stared directly at Xiao Yan.

"Flame Emperor, my Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan has never interfered with your affairs. What brings you here now?" Huang Tian asked coldly.

Xiao Yan shook the Heavenly Phoenix Wings on his back and said calmly, "This is Flying Dou Technique that I cut off from the corpse of a Heavenly Demon Phoenix."

"What a joke!" Huang Tian's expression was icy. "Those are clearly the Heavenly Phoenix Wings!"

"..." Xiao Yan didn't know what to say for a moment.

"If Flame Emperor Yan wishes to impart the Heavenly Phoenix Inheritance to my Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, my Huang Tian will naturally treat him with courtesy and regard Flame Emperor as an honored guest; but if Flame Emperor has only come to humiliate my Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, then please leave!"

Looking at the arrogant Huang Tian, Xiao Yan naturally knew what he was thinking.

The Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan's reputation for dominance far exceeds its actual strength. Its members rarely leave the Beast Region. If someone obtains the corpse of Heavenly Demon Phoenix, as long as they don't foolishly venture into the Beast Region, they'll be fine even if they run into Heavenly Demon Phoenix.

In other words, the Heavenly Demon Phoenix was merely closing its eyes and covering its ears, barely managing to save face.

Huang Tian could definitely sense the power of the Ancient Void Dragon within Xiao Yan's body, which stemmed from the deep-seated hostility of their bloodlines. However, Huang Tian avoided discussing it, which was clearly a different kind of surrender.

Xiao Yan thought for a moment and decided not to attack Huang Tian. Let Heavenly Demon Phoenix stay put; Huang Tian was only Five-star Late Stage Dou Sheng, no need to worry about him.

Vanishing from the void, Xiao Yan headed towards the Void Lightning Pool.

The Sky-Supporting Pillars corresponding to the Nine Dragon Thunder Gang Fire now stands tall in the Void Lightning Pool.

At this moment, Xiao Long was leading his people to cultivate around the Sky-Supporting Pillars. Although the Nine Dragon Thunder Gang Fire was only ranked twelfth among the Heavenly Flames, and its origin was far inferior to that of the Black Demonic Lightning and the Nine Profound Golden Thunder, it was still Heavenly Flames after all, and its power was very beneficial to the Thunder Spirit Clan.

After glancing at it twice, Xiao Yan turned his gaze away and went to Ancient Dragon Island.

A Dragon Phoenix ten thousand feet tall flew out from the Ancient Dragon Island. Its purple-gold scales were only faintly purple, but they emitted a strong golden light. Unlike the coldness of ordinary Ancient Void Dragon, its scales faintly revealed a scorching aura.

The Dragon Phoenix opened its mouth wide at Xiao Yan, and every scale seemed to ignite with dazzling Golden Flame, reflecting off Xiao Yan and causing him to squint.

"Whoa~ Boom!"

With a joyful howl and a muffled thud, Zi Yan clung to Xiao Yan, wincing and wrapping her arms around his back. Her eyes were watery as she stared at Xiao Yan, pouting as she said, "It hurts!"

Xiao Yan helplessly rubbed Zi Yan's head. This girl had obviously refined the Golden Body Creation Pill, and Zhu Kun had been letting her have her way, so she had become a bit arrogant.

Zhu Kun also ran out, looking at Zi Yan and Xiao Yan with a helpless expression.

Although Zi Yan told him that Xiao Yan had other women around him, Zi Yan was convinced of Xiao Yan's worth and treated him even better than herself, so Zhu Kun didn't dare to voice his opinion.

Also, Xiao Yan has definitely broken through to the Dou Emperor.

Having been trapped in the Tou She Ancient God's Cave Mansion for so long, waiting anxiously for the appearance of the token, Zhu Kun finally realized that he could have used his strength to force it out, but he was simply not strong enough. He felt that God was playing a joke on him.

After pulling Zi Yan down, Xiao Yan brought up the matter of marrying Zi Yan to Zhu Kun, and also promised that Origin Qi within a hundred years.

Zhu Kun was very pleased with this, but he longed to hold his grandchildren as soon as possible, but was then chased away by Zi Yan.

"Damn it, they didn't even ask for my opinion on this!" Zi Yan bit Xiao Yan's shoulder, covering her flushed face.

"Yes, yes, you can decide when we want to have a baby," Xiao Yan agreed.

Zi Yan grabbed Xiao Yan by the neck, baring her teeth and claws, and said, "You didn't even discuss marrying me beforehand!"

Xiao Yan simply silenced Zi Yan with a kiss, and after she calmed down, he said with a grin, "If you don't agree, I'll tie you up and carry you home!"

"Tch!" Zi Yan nestled in Xiao Yan's arms, a happy smile spreading across her face.

Zi Yan was very playful, but she didn't expect that Xiao Yan, who always seemed mature and composed, was even more playful than her.

The two wandered aimlessly in the void, sometimes even rushing into the Void Storm, relying on their physical strength to traverse the storms, letting the storms rich in Space Power serve as mere embellishments.

It wasn't until Queen Medusa emerged from seclusion and Xiao Yan received the text message that he stepped out of the void and headed to the Nine Nether Yellow Spring once more.

Zi Yan originally wanted to join them for a three-person trip, but Xiao Yan... couldn't refuse.

Xiao Yan believed his strength was no weaker than that of Spirit Grade Heavenly Sovereign. He could go anywhere on the Dou Qi Continent. Even if there were Dou Di Relic in the Nine Nether Yellow Spring, where a living Magical Beast Dou Emperor was hidden, he would not be worried at all.

Queen Medusa of unapproachability and a cool, aloof demeanor, crossed her arms, tilted her chin up, stared at Xiao Yan for a long while, and finally took his free arm.

The other one was naturally confined in the arms of the childlike Zi Yan.

The three of them ventured deeper into the depths of the Nine Nether Yellow Spring, where even Dou Sheng Expert would find it difficult to withstand the chilling aura, yet it did not hinder their progress in the slightest.

Space Power surrounded the three of them, and after only a few minutes, a sinister Snake People Stone Statue appeared in front of them.

The stone statue has empty, hollow eyes, and every strand of hair is transformed into the shape of a venomous snake. Its upper body is an extremely alluring human form, while its lower body is a long snake tail.

"Medusa Goddess ..." Queen Medusa's gaze narrowed slightly as she recognized the stone statue.

"Is this the god worshipped in the Snake People Temple?" Xiao Yan asked, a thought crossing his mind.

Queen Medusa pondered for a moment, then said softly, "I only sensed a bloodline inheritance. In reality, there are very few records about gods; they have been largely lost over the long years."

Xiao Yan nodded, pulled his arm out of Zi Yan's arms, and took out the Nine Nether Nether Staff.

"Buzzing..."

The Twin Snakes coiled around the Nine Nether Nether Staff suddenly loosened their grip, and the Snake Pearl containing the Bloodline Power of the Nine Nether Nether Python Royal Clan suddenly broke free from the Nine Nether Nether Staff and shot towards the chest of the Snake People Stone Statue.

A spatial ripple spread out, sweeping over the three people, and then blood began to flow from the stone statue's eyes.

The entire Nine Nether Yellow Spring trembled at this moment. Countless Strange Snakes roared and tried to get closer, but they melted in the turbid waters of the Netherworld, leaving only drops of pure Essence Blood to gather there.

Drops of Essence Blood fell onto the stone statue, and its icy surface gradually softened, eventually revealing a faint breath of life.

Who has disturbed my slumber?

The stone statue's eyes remained empty, but its head of snake hair began to writhe, and an incomparably majestic voice emanated from its mouth, intending to suppress Xiao Yan and the other two.

To be precise, the goal was to suppress Xiao Yan and Zi Yan, but the statue did not target Queen Medusa.

Are you pretending to be a fool?

Xiao Yan slapped it across the face.
