Tian Yao Company Had Made a Huge Move!

A young man dressed in a black cloak slowly stepped out from the spatial rift.

Yang Shan stared blankly at the man with a fierce and menacing look between his brows; his face was completely unfamiliar.

I definitely never saw this in my past life!

I haven't even seen it on the forum.

Yang Shan couldn't even use the detection function because the difference in strength between the two sides was too great, rendering the detection function ineffective!

The man slowly landed in front of Xiao Mei, the fierceness between his brows seemed to have lessened slightly. He stretched out his hand, a pill lying in his palm. "Cousin, take this first to ease your injuries."

"I"

Xiao Mei was also quite bewildered at this moment. "Thank you for saving me, but, but I don't think I really know you."

"You don't even know me. Did I, as your master, allow you to leave?"

The man who called himself "this sovereign" turned around, and with a raised hand, another Palm Force came down.

Yun Shan had already intended to retreat, but he had only taken one step back when the Palm Force came.

In front of this man, both Dou Zong and Dou Emperor seemed to be the same; they would both be slapped into the ground.

Yang Shan subconsciously swallowed.

Oh no!

He's Cheng E now! Not only did he fail to obtain the treasure, but it seems he's completely lost his one-star level! "I'm not killing you only because you're unworthy. Stand still and behave yourselves!"

Standing?

Yun Shan and Lian Qiao's fates are currently unknown, so why are they standing there?

Yang Shan stood very upright.

Since it's already like this, so be it. It's just one star, I can afford to lose it!

The man completely ignored Yang Shan, not even glancing at her! "Cousin, let me introduce myself. My name is Xiao Li, from the Xiao Clan. You, and the Xiao Family of this barren land, are also from the Xiao Clan."

Xiao Li?

Yang Shan had even more questions in his mind.

He knows that name well!

He's the second brother of Xiao Yan, the protagonist of the original novel!

Xiao Aotian, standing to the side, blurted out:

"Xiao Li! You are Xiao Li!"

Xiao Li turned his head to look at Xiao Aotian: "You know me?"

Xiao Aotian: "Me"

The Xiao Li that Xiao Li Xiao Aotian knew, like Yang Shan, was only described in the original novel.

In the original novel, although Xiao Li was fierce and ruthless, he had limited talent and only cultivated to the level of Da Dou Shi. He later relied on the special pill "Life Devouring Pill" to consume his lifespan and then raised his strength to Dou Wang.

But the person in front of him, Xiao Li, was someone even the Dou Zong level Yun Shan Shou couldn't defeat.

Moreover, it came from a spatial rift.

"At the very least, he should be Dou Zun!" Xiao Li frowned. "Why are you hesitating?"

In a moment of quick thinking, Xiao Aotian immediately made up a lie. "I know a cultivation genius named Xiao Yan. He said he comes from the Xiao Family and has two older brothers, one named Xiao Ding and the other named Xiao Li."

"My elder brother's name is indeed Xiao Ding."

Xiao Li then shook his head. "But in my father's lineage, there are only my brother and me. Xiao Yan? I don't know him."

Xiao Aotian: "Oh, that might just be a coincidence."

Xiao Aotian also realized that he had made a foolish mistake.

Tianyao Official announced that players would be the main characters and that Xiao Yan, the protagonist from the original novel, would not be in the game.

Could it be that Tianyao Official stance is contradicting itself?

But what about the Xiao Clan?

Wasn't the Xiao Clan already in decline in the original novel? Xiao Aotian remained silent, hoping to get an answer from Xiao Li.

Xiao Li looked at Xiao Mei again and said, "This is a long story, but if I don't explain it to you clearly, I think you won't want to come with me."

Now, Xiao Mei was even more confused. "Go with you? Where to?"

"Naturally, I will return to the Xiao Clan."

Xiao Mei: "What is the Xiao Clan? Are they related to our Xiao Family by blood?"

"You've guessed some of it. Our Xiao Clan is the strongest of the eight ancient races!"

When the Xiao Clan is mentioned, a hint of pride always appears on Xiao Li's face.

Yang Shan, Xiao Aotian, and Su Yitang.

The three players didn't dare utter a single word, and even slowed their breathing considerably.

They all wanted to hear every word Xiao Li said carefully! After all, the information Xiao Li was talking about was likely a secret that wouldn't be revealed until many versions later! Facing Xiao Mei, Xiao Li appeared very patient and explained things in great detail.

The Ancient Eight Clans are known to any player who has read the original novel as the most mysterious and powerful beings among the human race on the Dou Qi Continent.

Dou Wang and Dou Emperor, with their Dou Qi Transformation Wings, and Dou Zong experts Sky Tread air, can dominate even remote areas.

Dou Zun expert controls space would surely be renowned even in the Central Plains.

Dou Sheng Expert can even create space with one hand. Even in Central Plains, Dou Sheng is already a "legend." Most cultivators in Central Plains have never even seen Dou Sheng! Above the legends is the highest realm in the Dou Qi Continent: Dou Di!

The power of Dou Di is beyond description, after all, no one has achieved the title of Dou Di in ten thousand years on the Dou Qi Continent.

But becoming Dou Di is like a sublimation of life, causing Earth Covering changes in one's own blood, and even allowing "kindred people" with whom one has a blood relationship to undergo a similar sublimation.

Therefore, according to ancient records, whenever a new Dou Di is produced, all of that Dou Di's blood relatives can immediately receive an exaggerated boost in cultivation.

Even if the parents and children who are closest by blood are just ordinary people, they will instantly possess the cultivation level of Dou Sheng!

The Dou Qi Continent has had no Dou Di for ten thousand years, but the Dou Di Bloodline from ten thousand years ago has been passed down to this day.

These descendants of the Dou Di are called the "Ancient Race".

Anyone who possesses the Dou Di Bloodline Battle Emperor) will have cultivation aptitude that is difficult for ordinary people to match.

Moreover, bloodline is not static; it can decrease or increase due to various reasons.

These ancient races all lived in a special space created by their own Dou Di Old Ancestor before their deaths.

These special spaces are no different from the Dou Qi Continent; they can be considered as subordinate minor planes of the Dou Qi Continent. In fact, the spiritual energy in these minor planes is several times that of the outside world! The ancient races that still exist and thrive today include the Xiao Clan, the Ancient Clan, the Soul Clan, the Thunder Clan, the Yan Clan, the Flame Clan Yao Clan, the Spirit Clan, and the Stone Clan.

This is the origin of the "Ancient Eight Clans".

"Of course, as time goes by, the Dou Di Bloodline may gradually become diluted due to reproduction. From ten thousand years ago to today, the Ancient Eight Clans each have tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of members, but most of them have Dou Di Bloodline that are so diluted that they can be ignored. These clansmen are called descendants."

"But the Dou Di Bloodline is inherently unstable. Some accidents or mutations can cause the diluted Dou Di Bloodline to suddenly become stronger."

Xiao Li explained, "Our Xiao Clan's patriarch, Xiao Xuan, is one of the strongest experts on the Dou Qi Continent. Five hundred years ago, he tried to bring some of his descendants out of the Xiao World and scatter them throughout the Dou Qi Continent, hoping that they would have more opportunities to stimulate their bloodline in a harsher environment."

Xiao Mei pointed to herself. "So, our Xiao Family are actually descendants of the Xiao Clan stationed in the Jia Ma Empire?"

Xiao Li: "Yes, if any ethnic group has its bloodline activated, the Xiao Clan has special treasures that can provide clues. Speaking of which, your bloodline is from the same lineage as my ancestors, so it's understandable that you call me cousin."

Xiao Mei was still processing the "legend" that Xiao Li had mentioned.

But Yang Shan had already digested it almost completely.

After all, they are good young people of China who have gone through fifteen years of compulsory education, and they have been doing "reading comprehension" questions since they were young.

One of the key skills for reading comprehension is extracting keywords.

The Xiao Clan, Xiao Xuan, and their descendants! In the original story, the Xiao Clan was the most powerful among the Ancient Eight Clans, and its patriarch, Xiao Xuan, was one of the strongest experts on the entire Dou Qi Continent at that time. Even the Soul Clan was overshadowed by the Xiao Clan! However, the bloodline of the Xiao Clan's Dou Di Bloodline began to wither. Xiao Xuan wanted to save the Xiao Clan, so he gathered all the remaining bloodline power of the entire Xiao Clan and forcibly tried to break through to Dou Di, but he failed.

The backlash from the failed attack severely injured Xiao Xuan, who was then immediately surrounded and killed by powerful members of the Soul Clan.

With Xiao Xuan's fall, the Xiao Clan was targeted by the Soul Clan. Without Xiao Xuan's presence, the Xiao Clan was wiped out by the Soul Clan in just a few years, with the remaining members escaping from Central Plains.

By the time of Xiao Yan, the protagonist of the original novel, the Xiao Clan had declined to the point of being one of the "three major families" in Wutan City of the Jia Ma Empire.

But in the game, the story of the Dou Qi Continent has clearly changed drastically! Yang Shan, having figured everything out, exclaimed, "Good heavens!" No wonder Xiao Mei was originally just a minor character in the original story, suddenly became even more powerful than Nalan Yanran, and then mysteriously disappeared in later versions of her past life! No wonder Tang Huo'er in her past life and Luo Xie in this life both said that Central Plains was "one tower and one palace," not "One Hall, One Tower" as in the original story! "Tian Yao Company, you've played a very grand game!"

Yang Shan looked at Xiao Aotian with a hint of bitterness in his eyes.

Damn it!

He finally understood what those players felt when they said on the forum, "Yang Shan is a real bastard who deserves to die."

That's a negative emotion called jealousy!

Xiao Mei has now achieved a remarkable leap, transforming from an ordinary descendant of the Xiao Clan into Dou Di Bloodline! So, how much affection does Xiao Aotian actually have for Xiao Mei?

When the Central Plains version is released, will Xiao Aotian and others simply go to the Xiao Clan to live off their wives?

No wonder Xiao Aotian died more than ten times while trying to seduce Medusa in his previous life, yet he could still quickly regain his level.

Judging from this, the Xiao Clan is still the head of the Ancient Eight Clans.

Even the Soul Heavenly Emperor couldn't defeat Xiao Xuan! The future son-in-law of the Xiao Clan! Yang Shan personally witnessed Xiao Aotian bowing his head.

His shoulders were shaking like he had Parkinson's!

It was clearly not a tremor caused by fear of Xiao Li.

Instead, he suppressed his laughter as if he were pressing down on an AK, trying his best not to let it out.

He deserves to die! Xiao Li: "Cousin, come back to the Xiao Clan with me."

Xiao Mei: "Cousin, even if what you said is true, I can't just abandon the Xiao Family and go with you like this."

Xiao Li nodded. "After many descendants awaken their bloodline, they are reluctant to leave their relatives. I understand you, cousin. But you must know that descendants who are away from home need to endure many trials in order to awaken more of their bloodline."

Xiao Mei: "The Xiao Family is now facing a life-or-death crisis, and I must live and die with the Xiao Family!"

"Cousin, don't worry. Putting aside the past, now that the Xiao Family here has produced someone of your bloodline, our Xiao Clan will naturally protect you!"

After saying that, Xiao Li waved his hand.

Yun Shan and Lian Qiao, who were originally lying in the pit, were pulled up by two unseen forces.

With two thuds, both of them knelt down in front of Xiao Mei.

Xiao Li said coldly, "You two are both from the Soul Hall?"

"No, I'm not!"

Yun Shan no longer possesses the demeanor of the "Number One Expert" of the Jia Ma Empire; he had only just broken through to the Dou Zong.

He hadn't even had a chance to show his heroic figure to the world.

If he were to die here, what would be the point of his breakthrough? Xiao Li: "Regardless of whether you are or not, you two listen to me clearly. From now on, in the Jia Ma Empire, you can do as you please, but the territory and resources that the Xiao Family Xiao Family wants, you can only deal with them with equal strength and numbers!"

"If you can handle it, then it's yours. If you can't, then get the hell out of here!"

At this point, Xiao Li's voice carried a hint of murderous intent. "If anyone dares to bully the weak, do you know the consequences?"

Yun Shan: "I know, I know. From now on, I'll take a detour whenever I see anyone from the Xiao Family!"

Xiao Li unleashed a gust of wind with a slap, slamming Yun Shan back into the ground.

"Are you deaf? Can't you understand what I'm saying? Do you want me to take a detour?"

Xiao Mei whispered, "Cousin, are you... are you trying to put the Xiao Family through more trials?"

Xiao Li: "The clan leader made this arrangement for this purpose. However, the Xiao Family here is indeed somewhat weak. I have roughly sensed that apart from you, I cannot find a single Dou Wang."

Xiao Mei lowered her head. "The Xiao Family, the Xiao Family has already tried very hard."

Xiao Li: "If you understand what I mean, then get lost! The Soul Hall's lackeys are an eyesore!"

Yun Shan took two hits from Xiao Li, and now his internal organs are somewhat cracked!

He forced himself to stand up, activated his Dou Qi Transformation Wings, and fled at top speed.

It seems the injury was really too severe; he can't even fly anymore, and he's almost completely Lian Qiao.

He didn't even pay attention to Yang Shan, his Dou Qi Light Wings fluttering like flies, as if he was afraid that if he was a step too slow, Xiao Li would swat him to death.

Yang Shan knew that he couldn't stay any longer.

Unseeable's probably just a facade in front of Xiao Li, but a big shot like him probably wouldn't care about that.

"Su Yitang, make sure you remember everything Xiao Li says next and tell me!"

"Don't worry, boss, I'm recording this!"

"Awesome!"

When Yang Shan left, his mind was still a little fuzzy.

It wasn't because I was happy that I kept my rank.

This is really something big today! What version are we in? Players haven't even been able to break out of the Jia Ma Empire.

The result was that it directly touched on the storyline of the Ancient Eight Clans! This might not even be seen in version 5.0!

Yang Shan now has an impulse to go straight to the Jia Nan Academy and find a way to get close to Xiao Xun'er!

Xiao Family Xiao Aotian has already won over Xiao's "little cousin" who had been living away from home.

But can my little cousin compare to the young lady of the Ancient Clan? Yang Shan felt that he needed to log off and make some plans.
