On the plaza, Gu He, whose face was pale, slowly regained his senses after a moment of distraction. He looked up at the tall, white-robed youth in the sky and gave a bitter smile.

He was defeated quickly in the battle just now, but he also clearly saw the gap between himself and his opponent.

In terms of soul power alone, Xiao Yuan was stronger than him, an alchemist, and his combat strength far surpassed his own. As for appearance, well, there was no way to say it. Even with a hint of envy, Gu He couldn't say that Xiao Yuan was unattractive.

Now that Xiao Yuan is going head-to-head with the Yun Shan Sect Master, his chances are slim, and he will likely be defeated sooner or later.

But so what?

In the end, I lost.

"Well!"

With a regretful sigh, Gu He glanced somewhat reluctantly at Yun Yun in the sky, whose face showed worry for Xiao Yuan. His eyes dimmed a little, and then he left Misty Cloud Sect in silence. His carefully made wedding robe burst apart inch by inch, turning into pieces that fell to the ground.

As Gu He's figure slowly disappeared, whispers arose in the square. Some of the powerful figures who had been invited by Gu He exchanged glances and smiled bitterly. Since the main character had already left, there was no point in them staying any longer.

They had a close relationship with Gu He, and if Gu He wanted their help, they would naturally not refuse. However, now that Gu He had been defeated so thoroughly and quietly left, they naturally couldn't force him to help. Besides, even if they wanted to step in, they would probably only end up humiliating themselves. Even someone as strong as Gu He was easily defeated by Xiao Yuan, let alone them. Although they were extremely looking forward to the terrifying battle that was about to break out on Misty Cloud Mountain, they were not fools. If they were to get involved in this situation, they would probably only suffer unexpected disaster. Therefore, after exchanging glances in secret, some of the more easygoing ones bowed to Yun Shan on the Wedding Stage to take their leave, while some of the more temperamental ones didn't say a word and turned to leave Misty Cloud Sect.

As these powerful figures departed, the plaza became somewhat empty. Those who remained were mostly powerful individuals or forces invited by the Misty Cloud Sect, who were wary of Yun Shan's power. Although they knew that staying here would only lead to being caught in the crossfire, they had no choice but to stay despite Yun Shan's increasingly gloomy expression.

Yun Yun looked at Xiao Yuan with a worried expression. Although Xiao Yuan's words were too harsh and somewhat disrespectful to her teacher, her teacher's actions did indeed disappoint her.

She felt that her teacher had become a completely different person since emerging from seclusion. The kind teacher who was once somewhat arrogant and doted on her had now become an unpredictable and ambitious man who treated her like a tool.

Although attacking one's own teacher is utterly outrageous, she would never stand idly by if Xiao Yuan were truly in mortal danger.

As for how she should conduct herself after today's commotion, Yun Yun was unwilling to think about it for the time being. Neither her teacher Yun Shan nor the elders under her command seemed as trustworthy as she had previously thought. Misty Cloud Sect might need some changes.

High in the sky, as Yun Shan's chilling shout fell, the atmosphere above Misty Cloud Sect instantly became tense. The autumn wind swept by, swirling up a few fallen leaves and bringing with it a cold, murderous intent.

Throughout the Misty Cloud Sect, the elders who were already on high alert slowly revealed their Douqi Wings upon hearing Yun Shan Misty Cloud Sect's cold shout. With a flick of their hands, sharp weapons gleaming with a cold light appeared, and sharp gazes shot directly towards the white-robed figure in the sky.

"Oh? Sect Master Yun Shan really thinks highly of me, actually mobilizing the entire sect's strength to deal with a mere brat like me. This is truly an eye-opener!"

Looking at the group of the Misty Cloud Sect elders before him, Xiao Yuan sarcastically remarked.

"But it doesn't matter. Since Sect Master Yun Shan thinks he is Dou Zong expert, stronger and more powerful than me, let's see who will have the last laugh today!"

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Yuan's expression turned much colder, and he swept his gaze over the many powerful figures of the Misty Cloud Sect, his eyes narrowing.

It wasn't that he didn't want to bring Hai Lao, Zi Yan, and the others along; it was just that this was supposed to be a wedding robbery, and it wouldn't be appropriate to bring a large group of people to cause trouble. With so many people around, if they were to help Yun Shan form the Cloud Covering Sun Array, he would probably have to rely on his teacher's help.

"I'll teach you a lesson after I've dealt with this kid!"

Yun Yun glanced coldly at Yun Shan in the distance, then moved and appeared in mid-air. He then gently stepped up the stairs, as if walking on steps. However, the stairs here were made of invisible air.

Stepping through the void, Yun Shan hovered not far in front of Xiao Yuan a moment later, under the watchful eyes of everyone in the square.

"My men are none of your business to lecture!"

Xiao Yuan calmly looked at Yun Shan without any fear, but these words of asserting sovereignty made Yun Shan's face grow even darker, and murderous intent appeared in his eyes.

Yun Shan gave a sinister smile, and with a flick of his sleeve, a powerful stream of deep Azure Douqi surged forth from his body.

The deep Azure Douqi surging from Yun Shan's body had a viscous liquid state, which was due to the excessive strength of his Dou Qi. This could also be seen from the constantly vibrating space around him.

Xiao Yuan's expression turned slightly serious upon seeing this, but he breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that a year has passed, and Yun Shan is still at the level of less than Two Star Dou Zong. His mastery of his own Dou Qi does not seem to be perfect.

However, this was the first time he had faced Dou Zong expert head-on, and he was inexplicably excited!

A hint of excitement flashed in Xiao Yuan's eyes.

This is the first time I've fought someone after cultivating for so long, and this fight might even be a life-or-death struggle.

Yun Shan grinned maliciously, slowly raising his palm to face Xiao Yuan. Energy rippled and expanded in his palm, like an energy cannon about to be unleashed.

Feeling the increasingly powerful aura emanating from Yun Shan's body, Xiao Yuan slowly formed several hand seals, and then shouted in his heart.

"The Heavenly Flame Three Mysterious Transformations, the First Transformation: The Yin Yang Sovereign Fire Transformation!"

At this moment, the black and white flames and the orange-red flames quietly merged within Xiao Yuan's body, flowing rapidly through his meridians along the pathways of the Heavenly Flame Three Mysterious Transformations Secret Technique.

The next moment, Xiao Yuan's Dou Qi surged violently, and his aura also suddenly soared, directly reaching the level of Five Star Dou Huang.

A single Shao Yin Sovereign Fire or Yin Yang Dual Flames could at most increase Xiao Yuan's strength by one or two stars. However, after the two were combined, according to Xiao Yuan's estimation, the quality of the flames was probably no less than that of Yao Lao's eleventh-ranked Bone Spirit Cold Flame. Naturally, it could achieve an effect greater than the sum of its parts.

"A secret method to enhance strength?"

Seeing Xiao Yuan's sudden surge in aura, Yun Shan was slightly surprised, then grinned ferociously, and the deep blue energy in his palm became even more concentrated.

"This sect will show you with facts that before Dou Zong expert, all falsehoods will crumble and be annihilated! Today, no matter how many tricks you have up your sleeve, this sect will make you regret your past actions!"

Hearing Yun Shan's chilling words filled with killing intent, Xiao Yuan's face gradually turned cold and stern. A powerful Azure Douqi surged from his body like a whirlwind, enveloping his entire body.

"A mere One-Star Dou Zong, yet he speaks with such arrogance!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuan's lips curled into a cold smile. The next moment, he unleashed the Qi Gathering Palaces Infusion Method, pouring the Dou Qi from one Qi Mansion after another into the Azure Wood Qi Gathering Palaces. The wind and thunder Dou Qi qi surged within the Qi Mansion, and Xiao Yuan's aura soared once again, almost like a rocket, until it finally stopped at the peak of the Eight-Star Dou Emperor.

Even with Yun Shan's knowledge and composure, he was stunned on the spot.

What kind of secret technique is this? It's almost raised a Peak Dou Wang to the Dou Huang Peak! Feeling the unprecedented abundance of power within his body, Xiao Yuan couldn't help but clench his fist, a grin spreading across his face.

The moment the smile bloomed, azure lightning flashed, and Xiao Yuan's figure appeared like a ghost behind Yun Shan. His azure Wind and Thunder Douqi condensed into a whirlwind carrying arcs of lightning, and slammed hard into Yun Shan's back.

Startled by Xiao Yuan's terrifying speed, Yun Shan's pupils contracted, and he immediately reacted by waving his sleeve, which then slashed fiercely behind him with a sharp and terrifying gust of wind.

"Bang!"

The sleeve, as hard as steel, sliced through the air, only to be directly struck by Xiao Yuan, who was wielding the Wind and Thunder Power and whose first move was Mysterious Rank Dou Techniques. The two collided in mid-air, and a thunderous, muffled sound immediately resounded on Misty Cloud Mountain. Then, ripples of energy rapidly spread out, and even the space itself trembled slightly as the energy spread.

The surge of energy swept through the air, engulfing the Misty Cloud Sect members who had been rising into the sky. Yun Yun, who was far away, was strong enough to easily deflect the aftershocks. However, the elders of the Misty Cloud Sect were only at the Dou Wang level, and the few Dou Emperor were only at the initial Dou Emperor level. Naturally, they were no match for Yun Yun.

At that moment, many elders clutched their chests and flew backward. Some of the weaker Dou Wang elders even groaned and blood spilled from the corners of their mouths!

In the sky, Yun Shan's expression changed, and he flew forward dozens of meters before he could completely dissipate the force. Xiao Yuan also retreated several steps before he could stabilize himself.

That's it?

Xiao Yuan chuckled lightly, and then his figure disappeared again. Yun Shan's pupils shrank, and he hurriedly flicked out his sleeves again.

Sizzle!

A cyan longsword, crackling with the Wind and Thunder Power, pierced out. Its blade gleamed with sharp light, and its Dou Qi raged, tearing a section of Yun Shan's sleeve.

However, Xiao Yuan was also forced back several steps by the force of the energy emanating from the sleeve.

"Is this Yun Shan really Dou Zong?"

On the lower platform, Jia Xingtian, who was still watching the Jia Xingtian, looked thoughtful and asked Fa Ma next to him with a serious expression.

"Nonsense, it's not that Yun Shan is too weak, it's that Xiao Yuan, that young master Xiao Yuan, is too strong, giving people the illusion that Dou Zong is nothing special. But look at those Misty Cloud Sect elders who are spitting blood. In my opinion, they probably wouldn't even be able to withstand a single blow from Xiao Yuan."

Upon hearing this, Fa Ma rolled his eyes at Jia Xingtian, then couldn't help but sigh.

On the outskirts of the Misty Cloud Sect, Hai Bodong and Teng Shan, who had secretly followed along out of concern, exchanged a glance and both saw the disbelief in each other's eyes.

This kid, in just one year, he's already grown to this level?!

However, the most shocked person was Yun Shan, who had suffered a setback at Xiao Yuan's hands.

He had never imagined that Xiao Yuan's combat power could be so terrifying, and his Dou Qi was even more bizarre, being a rare dual-attribute wind and Wind and Thunder Douqi. Moreover, the level of the cultivation technique he practiced was probably at the Earth Rank level, and the strength and purity of his Dou Qi were even higher than his own! Furthermore, Xiao Yuan's attacks were not only fierce but also powerful, clearly indicating that his physical strength was also extremely formidable.

This is a monster!

Is this the kind of person that the Xiao Clan could possibly cultivate?

Could it be that there is a powerful figure hiding behind him? In an instant, Yun Shan became more wary of Xiao Yuan.

But in the brief moment that Yun Shan was distracted, Xiao Yuan's attacks came one after another. The sky was filled with sword shadows, wind swirled and lightning flashed!

Wind Spirit Dividing Sword! As Xiao Yuan's longsword pointed at Yun Shan, countless sword shadows shot out, attacking Yun Shan.

Upon seeing this familiar Dou Technique, Yun Shan's face darkened even more. He immediately waved his sleeve, and a semi-circular Dou Qi aura shield appeared in front of him. Deep blue battle Dou Qi swirled on it, repelling all the sword shadows that filled the sky.

Then Yun Shan looked at Yun Yun and said coldly, "You even gave this kid the sect's Dou Technique. Yun Yun, you really know how to use someone else's talent to curry favor!"

Seeing that Yun Shan was still going to make things difficult for Yun Yun, Xiao Yuan's expression turned cold. Then, he slashed with his long sword again, and a wave of Dou Qi, also deep blue and mixed with light brown flames, fell down. To Yun Shan's disbelief, it shattered the Dou Qi qi shield!

"What an eerie kid!" Yun Shan's heart sank upon seeing this. The light brown flame from just now was extremely strange, and its terrifying temperature was undoubtedly Heavenly Flames!

With so many tricks up his sleeve, it's no wonder he dared to go to the Misty Cloud Sect alone. His terrifying combat power is truly astonishing.

Therefore, I can no longer underestimate this guy!

Huff! Yun Shan let out a soft breath, his eyes fixed on Xiao Yuan as if facing a formidable enemy. An unusual sense of oppression emanated from his body, and under this pressure, the Dou Qi within many people experienced a slight stagnation.

The onlookers were stunned. Who would have thought that such a young guy would have such a powerful fighting ability that even Yun Shan felt immense pressure?

"Still pretending?"

Seeing Yun Shan's posture, Xiao Yuan shook his head rather unhappily. He then formed a hand seal, and the energy between heaven and earth resonated with it. A deep Green Wind Blade, more than ten feet long, was condensed and then connected with each other, transforming into Wind Pillars covered with blades. It spiraled out at high speed!

Wind Splitting Whirlwind Dance!

With a thought from Xiao Yuan, nine cyan Wind Pillars swept out, their power causing even Jia Xingtian, who was not far away, to feel his hair stand on end!
