"Xiao Yuan, is it? Even though I am in the Hall of Souls Realm, your name is still widely known."

Hun Xuzi turned his gaze to Xiao Yuan, a strange smile appearing on his lips, and said.

"Who can compare to the Soul Clan beasts who betrayed their master and ancestors, whose name is as resounding as thunder in the ears?"

Xiao Yuan said coldly.

"Well, I was born a member of the Soul Clan and possess the bloodline of the Soul Clan. The matter of destroying one's ancestors cannot be attributed to me. As for betraying one's master, hehe, I never recognized that old ghost as my teacher." Hun Xuzi shook his head seriously at Xiao Yuan's sarcastic words, then narrowed his eyes into a dangerous arc, turned to look at Yao Lao, and said casually, "Yao Chen, you should actually thank me. If I hadn't valued your alchemy skills back then and wanted you to serve my Soul Clan, you would have been destroyed long ago. How would you have had the chance to train these two disciples? Hehe, but it doesn't matter. After this, I will personally bring them back."

Upon hearing this, Yao Lao's face immediately darkened. Xiao Yan, standing beside him, also stepped forward, unleashing his Dou Qi at the Mid-Stage Five-Star Dou Sheng. As his Clan Mark appeared, he flashed to Hun Xuzi's side, his sharp leg strikes like a razor-sharp blade, fiercely slashing down at the latter.

"Snort."

The sudden attack caught even Hun Xuzi off guard for a moment. He hadn't expected Xiao Yan to be so fierce, ordering his men to attack without saying a word. However, he was no ordinary person either. He let out a cold snort, the surrounding space twisted, and his figure vanished mysteriously. When he reappeared, he was on a stone chair in the distance.

"Bang!"

Xiao Yan's expression was somewhat gloomy, but he knew that he couldn't kill a powerhouse of this level without going all out.

Xiao Yuan held the jade cup in his hand, and a pretty maidservant immediately stepped forward obediently to fill his cup with the fragrant Medicine Wine prepared by the Yao Clan. He took a sip and then smiled leisurely, "Clan Chief Yao Dan, although it will take some time to deal with the beasts of the Soul Clan, I think you wouldn't want the Soul Clan scum hiding in the shadows to destroy the Medicine Ceremony, would you?"

"What!?"

Upon hearing this, Yao Dan's expression changed.

"Three Seven Star Dou Sheng leading the team in person, you really have a lot of resources. It was your Soul Clan that wiped out the Spirit Clan and the Shi Clan, wasn't it?"

As soon as Xiao Yuan spoke, everyone in the Yao Clan's expression changed drastically.

"Heh, well done, Xiao Yuan."

On the stone chair in the distance, the smile on Hun Xuzi's face gradually disappeared, and his eyes became cold and piercing. He stared at Xiao Yuan, and a terrifying energy fluctuation slowly spread out from his body, causing many of the Yao Clan elders to change their expressions slightly.

"Xiao Yuan, are you serious?"

The Yao Dan asked.

Even he didn't sense anything unusual, so how did Xiao Yuan discover it? "Hehe, since you've already figured it out, then I'll be frank. Patriarch Yao Dan, I have a favor to ask of you today."

Seeing that Xiao Yuan directly pointed out that three Seven Star Dou Sheng were leading the team, Hun Xuzi in the sky stopped pretending and smiled faintly.

"What's up?"

Yao Dan frowned slightly, looking at Hun Xuzi's expression, a slight sense of vigilance rising in his heart.

Seeing this, Hun Xuzi's smile became even more eerie. He licked his lips, and his next words caused the expressions of everyone in the Yao Clan to change drastically.

"I would like to temporarily borrow the Tou She Ancient God Jade from the Yao Clan!"

One stone stirs up a thousand waves.

As soon as Hun Xuzi finished speaking, the plaza, which had been boiling over because Xiao Yuan had revealed that a powerful member of the Soul Clan had secretly infiltrated, immediately fell silent. The faces of all the Yao Clan elders darkened in an instant, and their eyes flashed with cold light.

The Tou She Ancient God Jade is possessed by each of the Ancient Eight Clans, and each clan treats it as a priceless treasure, carefully guarding it. Even ordinary elders cannot see it. Those who are unaware of this matter are fine, but those who know look at Hun Xuzi as if he were a madman. How could the Yao Clan possibly lend him such a precious treasure?!

"Hun Xuzi, do you know what you're saying?"

At the head of the table, Yao Dan stared expressionlessly at Hun Xuzi in the sky, a sharp, cold glint flashing in his eyes. His voice, devoid of any emotion, slowly emanated from his mouth.

"Hehe, Patriarch Yao Dan, the Tou She Ancient God Jade is an ominous object. Keeping it in the Yao Clan will only bring you disaster. Giving it to me in exchange for peace might be better, right?"

Hun Xuzi smiled and said, seemingly unaware of the murderous intent surging in Yao Dan's eyes.

"Hun Xuzi, you are far too reckless! We will capture you today and summon the Soul Clan Chief to take you away!"

As soon as Hun Xuzi finished speaking, Ten Thousand Fires Elder's face turned completely gloomy. With a furious roar, a vast amount of Dou Qi suddenly swept out and covered the sky. His figure flashed and appeared above Hun Xuzi's head. A huge wind and flame condensed into a giant palm and slammed it hard towards the latter.

"Too bad, that kid saw through it. Oh well, let's stall for time!"

Facing the fierce onslaught of the Ten Thousand Fires Elder, Hun Xuzi's eyes turned icy cold. He glanced at Xiao Yuan, then raised his head, looked at the distant sky, and muttered to himself. The eerie smile on his lips widened, and deep within his pupils, black flames, like a long-suppressed raging dragon, surged out wildly. Accompanying the surge of the black flames, Hun Xuzi's aura also suddenly surged.

"Bang!"

In the sky, Hun Xuzi waved his sleeve, and his simple palm collided with the huge wind and flame palm print. To everyone's shock, the huge wind and flame was swallowed up by Hun Xuzi the moment they made contact. On the other hand, the terrifying Ten Thousand Fires Elder was struck as if by a heavy blow, spitting out a mouthful of blood and flying backward. He finally landed awkwardly on the square below, creating a huge crater.

"Hehe, let me test the strength of your Yao Clan!"

In the sky, Hun Xuzi's long hair moved without wind, and his eyes were completely covered by black flames, making him look extremely eerie. His faint voice echoed across the square.

"Seven Star Dou Sheng!"

Everyone was suddenly struck by the dramatic change in the atmosphere, staring in disbelief at Hun Xuzi in the sky. The aura that the latter had unleashed earlier far surpassed that of Ten Thousand Fires Elder!

"Is this guy trying to forcibly seize the Ancient Jade from the Yao Clan?"

Upon seeing this, the Yao Lao's expression changed immediately, and he whispered.

Xiao Yan's expression also turned solemn at this moment. This Seven Star Dou Sheng was indeed not someone he could deal with.

The face of the Yao Dan finally turned completely cold. He slowly stood up, staring intently at Hun Xuzi, and said grimly, "Send a signal to the Yan Clan and the Thunder Clan, telling them that we have found the mastermind behind the disappearances of the Spirit Clan and the Shi Clan!"

Upon hearing Yao Dan's words, everyone's expression changed. It was indeed as Xiao Yuan had said: the Soul Clan had truly annihilated the Spirit Clan and the Shi Clan, and now, it was their Yao Clan's turn!

"Yes!"

Although the elders of the Yao Clan were also shocked by the words about the Yao Dan and their hands and feet trembled, they still quickly took out a scroll, tore it open, and a spatial fluctuation spread rapidly.

However, just as these spatial fluctuations were about to coalesce into Space Channel, they seemed to be disturbed by some kind of interference, and suddenly began to fluctuate violently. The newly formed channel vanished in an instant.

Upon seeing this scene, many members of the Yao Clan felt a chill in their hearts. Some elders, quick-witted as ever, immediately issued clan alarms. Instantly, the nearby mountains stirred, and countless Yao Clan warriors, like locusts, rapidly broke through the air.

"Hun Xuzi, what tricks have you played?!"

An elder of the Yao Clan shouted sternly.

"Hmm, looks like it's almost done." In the sky, Hun Xuzi smiled slightly, not even glancing at the approaching Yao Clan warriors, and said casually, "Nothing much, just sealed off the Yao Clan's Space Blockade."

These words immediately caused a commotion below. The powerful figures from all sides who came to see the Medicine Ceremony all changed their expressions and took out their spatial scrolls, quickly tearing them open. However, the final result was exactly the same as before.

Yao Dan's face was gloomy. He pressed a Storage Ring with his finger and crushed it into powder. This ring could transmit energy fluctuations to the patriarchs of the Yan Clan and the Thunder Clan. Only the patriarchs of these three clans could possess it.

"Hehe, Patriarch Yao Dan, no need to waste your energy," Hun Xuzi said with a smile.

Yao Dan ignored his words and stared at his fingertips. Sure enough, he saw that the fluctuations there were immediately swallowed up by a black flame that appeared out of nowhere!

Seeing this, Yao Dan's heart sank completely.

"Hun Xuzi, my Yao Clan has established Space Channel with the Yan Clan Thunder Clan. If they discover that the passages have disappeared, they will surely know that something has happened to my Yao Clan. When the news spreads, the Ancient Clan will certainly not stand idly by. With the four clans joining forces, your Soul Clan will surely be destroyed!"

Although his heart had sunk to the bottom, Yao Dan was, after all, the head of the clan, so he immediately regained his composure and said in a deep voice.

"My Soul Clan was able to subdue the Spirit Clan and the Shi Clan without the Ancient Clan noticing, so naturally we can also make your Yao Clan quietly vanish from this world."

Hun Xuzi said calmly.

"You?!"

Yao Dan's figure slowly rose into the air, and the terrifying aura of the Seven Star Dou Sheng was also unleashed without reservation. The powerful pressure was even stronger than that of Hun Xuzi. Such strength was indeed worthy of the name of a clan leader.

"Senior Hun Xuzi, this is a feud between your Soul Clan and the Yao Clan, and it has nothing to do with us. We hope you will be lenient and let us leave. We will definitely repay your great kindness in the future."

As the Yao Dan ascended into the sky, the sect leaders and elders who had come to observe the Medicine Ceremony hurriedly shouted in unison. At this moment, they also felt some panic. The precedent of the Shi Clan and the Spirit Clan having no living beings made them understand that if they were involved, they would surely die.

"Hehe, that's natural. If you're not from the Yao Clan, feel free to leave. I won't stop you." Upon hearing this, Hun Xuzi smiled gently and said.

"Thank you, senior!"

Upon seeing this, many sect members were overjoyed and dared not say anything more. They turned around and rushed towards the entrance of the Medicine Realm.

Xiao Yuan watched the backs of those guys, took a sip of wine expressionlessly. Having dealt with the Soul Hall countless times, he naturally understood the ruthlessness of these guys. Letting people go was clearly not something they would do.

"Ahh!"

Sure enough, just as this thought flashed through Xiao Yuan's mind, countless black lights suddenly flashed on the distant horizon, and then a shrill scream resounded.

"Splash!"

Just as the black light flickered in the distance, everyone was suddenly horrified to see endless black flames seeping out from the void, eventually spreading out and covering the entire world, plunging it into darkness. "This is... the true Nihility Devouring Flame!"

In the sky, Xiao Yan stared at the black flames seeping out of nothingness, his pupils suddenly shrinking. Inside his body, Xiao Yi also opened her eyes, her tender little face unusually solemn. Clearly, even she felt a strong sense of crisis. Only Xiao Yuan remained calmly sipping his wine.

He was waiting for the right opportunity.

The opportunity a Nihility Devouring Flame could not evacuate in time after it swallowed the Medicine Clan Space.

As for what will happen to the Yao Clan? It doesn't matter if some die. The Yao Clan's past act of expelling Yao Lao has led to Xiao Yuan's current decision to handle this matter slowly and deliberately.

Everything is preordained.

Hun Xuzi floated in the sky, with black flames raging behind him. He smiled and looked down at the Yao Dan, slowly opening his arms. The smile on his face became increasingly eerie.

"Yao Dan, I am honored to announce to you that the Yao Clan is about to perish."

Black flames blotted out the sky, enveloping the entire world. Under the cover of those flames, the people below suddenly felt their Dou Qi gradually draining away, as if some invisible force was constantly devouring it. This discovery immediately filled countless people with terror. Judging from the fate of those who had fled earlier, the Soul Clan Dou Qi had no intention of leaving any survivors. Therefore, this entire mountain range was thrown into chaos. No one had expected that a perfectly good Medicine Ceremony would turn out like this.

"Brother? What do we do?"

Xiao Yan, enveloped in pink flames that protected him, descended from the sky and arrived beside Xiao Yuan, asking a question.

"You just protect the teacher. When the time is right, I will take action and wipe out all the scum of the Soul Clan."

Xiao Yuan sat motionless, but golden flames emanated from his body, forming a flame shield that enveloped Xiao Yan and Yao Lao.

"If it doesn't work, then break through. The two of you are more important to me than the Yao Clan."

The Yao Lao seemed to have a very open-minded attitude.

He had long since lost all affection for this indifferent race.
