Does Xiao Yan Have Two Heavenly Flames?

Before Qing Lin broke through to Dou Emperor, the Heaven Serpent Mansion might still barely have been able to capture some snake-type magical beasts at the Dou Emperor level.

But after Qing Lin broke through to Dou Emperor, the Heaven Serpent Mansion would no longer have the ability to capture higher-level snake-type magical beasts for her.

Qing Lin was still weak for now, so suitable magical beasts could still be found nearby. But once she broke through to Dou Emperor, higher-level snake-type magical beasts would be difficult to find.

Jiang Xing felt that in the future, he would have to visit the Nine Nether Earth Python Clan to capture snakes for Qing Lin.

The Nine Nether Earth Python Clan possessed an extremely strong reproductive capacity. Even the clan's elders had predicted that if they continued reproducing like this, then in a few hundred years, the ancient bloodline within them might be completely diluted.

With such a strong reproductive capacity, even if their bloodlines were thin, they could still pile up several hundred Dou Venerates through sheer numbers, right?

Tsk, tsk, tsk. If Qing Lin absorbed the Dou Qi of several hundred Dou Venerates...

After chatting with Qing Lin for a while longer, Jiang Xing told her to cultivate diligently, then prepared to go next door to find Zi Yan.

They had not seen each other for two years. Zi Yan had surely finished all the medicinal pills he had given her, so Jiang Xing needed to go feed her some more.

Zi Yan was the key to gaining the support of the Ancient Void Dragon clan in the future. He could not let her run away.

If she ran away just because he did not give her medicinal pills, that would truly be sacrificing the greater for the lesser.

Besides, while Zi Yan was still young, feeding her would allow him to build their relationship faster.

But then he suddenly heard Qing Lin say, "Young Master, Sister Zi Yan isn't here. She went out."

"She went out?"

Jiang Xing's heart skipped a beat, and he wondered if Zi Yan had really run away.

Qing Lin said, "Yes, Young Master. Sister Zi Yan finished the medicinal pills you gave her, so she often goes out to look for food."

"Oh, she just went out to find food."

Only after hearing Qing Lin's words did Jiang Xing let out a sigh of relief.

As long as she had not run away, it was fine.

At the same time, Jiang Xing felt that he should take Zi Yan to Ancient Dragon Island.

He had kept the little girl waiting for so long already. It really was a bit inappropriate.

Since Zi Yan was not around, Jiang Xing left.

Jiang Xing crushed the Jade Slip used to summon Ji Feng.

Two years ago, he had told Ji Feng to search for the Demonic Flame Remnant Map at the Black-Corner Region's auctions. He wondered whether he had obtained it.

In the original story, Xiao Yan seemed to have acquired the remnant map when he was a Four- or Five-Star Da Dou Shi. By all rights, it should have been obtained by now.

Before long, Ji Feng appeared before him.

After sensing Ji Feng's strength, Jiang Xing asked, "Ji Feng, you broke through to Six-Star Dou Venerate?"

"Yes, Young Master. I broke through not long ago."

Ji Feng had followed Jiang Xing, so naturally, he had never lacked cultivation resources.

After two years of cultivation, he had finally risen another star and reached Six-Star Dou Venerate. Breaking through one star in two years was not bad.

However, Jiang Xing had now reached Two-Star Dou Venerate, so he no longer needed Ji Feng's protection.

Although Ji Feng was several realms higher than him, if they fought, Ji Feng would definitely not be his match.

It seemed Ji Feng could only run errands now.

"Ji Feng, did you find the remnant map I told you to look for in the Black-Corner Region?"

Ji Feng was somewhat taciturn, so Jiang Xing did not beat around the bush and directly stated why he had summoned him.

"I found it, Young Master."

Hearing that Jiang Xing wanted the remnant map, Ji Feng took it out of his Storage Ring and handed it to him.

Jiang Xing took it and looked it over. After confirming that it was correct, he nodded at Ji Feng.

Just as he was about to leave to find Zi Yan, he heard Ji Feng speak.

"Young Master, when I went to the Black-Corner Region, I also saw that person..."

"Which person?"

Jiang Xing did not react immediately.

Ji Feng said, "The one I captured last time."

"Hm? Xiao Yan!"

As soon as Ji Feng said that, Jiang Xing knew who he meant.

Then Jiang Xing asked, "Is he still in the Black-Corner Region?"

Ji Feng answered truthfully, "He was still there when I went two months ago. I don't know about now."

"What strength is he at now?"

Jiang Xing was rather curious. He had stolen so many of Xiao Yan's opportunities and even kept Yao Chen detained. What realm was Xiao Yan at now?

"Young Master, he was a Two-Star Dou Ling at the time."

Jiang Xing inwardly muttered, This plot doesn't feel right. Xiao Yan shouldn't have broken through to Dou Ling yet.

Seeing that Jiang Xing said nothing, Ji Feng continued, "And there was a Dou Zong expert protecting him."

A Dou Zong protecting him? Jiang Xing guessed that Gu Xun'er must have sent them.

"Also, Xiao Yan seemed to have a Heavenly Flame on him."

Ji Feng knew that Jiang Xing's cultivation technique required Heavenly Flames to increase his strength, which was why he reported this information to him.

"A Heavenly Flame? How did you know?"

Upon hearing about a Heavenly Flame, Jiang Xing was somewhat puzzled. Hadn't he already taken the Green Lotus Core Flame and Fallen Heart Flame? Could it be that tiny Fallen Heart Flame?

After gathering his thoughts, Ji Feng said, "At the time, the Black Seal City auction notified me to retrieve this fragmentary map. On my way back, I saw Xiao Yan snatching Fan Ling, the Blood Sect Young Clan Leader's auction item. Xiao Yan used a Heavenly Flame while fighting Fan Ling."

Jiang Xing directly asked, "What Heavenly Flame was it?"

Ji Feng recalled it for a moment before saying, "It looked somewhat like Wind Fury Dragon Flame, but it wasn't."

"Somewhat like it, but not?"

Then Jiang Xing thought of fused Heavenly Flames.

Fuck, no way! Is the protagonist's luck aura really this powerful?

He had already snatched away the Green Lotus Core Flame, Fallen Heart Flame, Sea Heart Flame, and Bone Chilling Flame, yet Xiao Yan had still managed to find a Wind Fury Dragon Flame that never appeared in the original story, along with another Heavenly Flame?

After stealing so many of Xiao Yan's opportunities, Jiang Xing had nearly overlooked Xiao Yan entirely.

But now he was being told that Xiao Yan might have obtained two more Heavenly Flames!

It seemed he had still underestimated Xiao Yan.

Jiang Xing wondered whether he should rob Xiao Yan again.

If he did, Gu Xun'er would definitely suspect him.

If he didn't, those were two Heavenly Flames!

As Jiang Xing pondered, his eyes suddenly lit up. How had he forgotten about the Hall of Souls?

Wouldn't it be enough to dress in Hall of Souls attire and rob Xiao Yan directly?

The power behind the Hall of Souls was the Soul Clan, and the Soul Clan wanted the ancient jade of the Xiao Clan, so they sent the Hall of Souls to rob the Xiao Clan's Young Clan Leader! Reasonable! Extremely reasonable!

Jiang Xing then took out Guardian Wu's Storage Ring, searched through it, and retrieved a scroll of Dou Technique along with a set of black clothing.

Opening the Dou Technique scroll, the four words "Soul Chains" appeared before Jiang Xing's eyes.

After taking a look and confirming that he could cultivate it as well, he burst into laughter. "When the time comes, I'll wear black and use Hall of Souls Dou Techniques. Who will be able to tell that I'm not from the Hall of Souls?"

Right, he also had to let out a sinister "Heh heh heh" laugh while smiling! That was the key point—he had to mark it down and use it.

Even Jiang Xing had to admire his own wisdom. By pretending to be a member of the Hall of Souls to rob Xiao Yan, not only would Gu Xun'er not suspect him, but he could also intensify the conflict between the Hall of Souls and Xiao Yan and Gu Xun'er.

And in the future, whenever there was something inconvenient for him to do himself, he could impersonate someone from the Hall of Souls and pin the blame on them.
