After Nalan Yanran and the other two left, everyone in the hall turned their eyes toward Xiao Chuan.

Their Xiao Clan had produced a genius Dou Wang!!

Xiao Chuan was now like the moon surrounded by stars. Everyone gathered around him, showering him with praise for being young and promising.

Xiao Chuan felt little attachment to them. Instead, he walked up to his father, Xiao Zhan. "Father, was what I did acceptable?"

"Acceptable!!" Xiao Zhan's face was full of unconcealed joy. "With your talent, it won't be long before you reach the Dou Emperor realm. Then our Xiao Clan won't need to fear the Misty Cloud Sect!"

Everyone nodded repeatedly. Xiao Chuan had become a Dou Wang at such a young age—was the Dou Emperor realm still far away?

A Dou King Expert could already rank among the notable figures of the Jia Ma Empire. Their Xiao Clan was about to rise!!

Xiao Zhan had intended to ask Xiao Yan to prepare a welcoming banquet, but when he remembered that Xiao Yan had just had his engagement broken off, he hesitated.

Xiao Yan forced a smile. "Father, you don't need to worry about me. I definitely won't fall apart!"

Xiao Zhan walked over and patted Xiao Yan's shoulder. As a father, his heart ached for his son.

Xiao Chuan also came over and patted Xiao Yan's shoulder. "Younger Brother, do whatever you want. Third Brother will cover for you."

Xiao Yan was his tool, after all. Naturally, Xiao Chuan hoped Xiao Yan could raise his realm and strength as quickly as possible.

As long as Xiao Yan advanced to Dou Zhe, he could advance to Dou Emperor. If Xiao Yan advanced to Dou Master, he could reach Dou Zong!

Xiao Chuan wished he could raise Xiao Yan straight to Dou Zong right now. Then he would gain the strength of a Dou Di!!

"Thank you, Third Brother." Xiao Yan nodded gratefully at Xiao Chuan. He always felt that his third brother looked at him as though he was about to drool.

Xiao Zhan continued, "I want to catch up with your third brother. Go tidy up your third brother's room."

"Alright."

Watching Xiao Yan's departing figure, Xiao Chuan knew that Old Grandpa was about to emerge.

And his life was about to begin.

The people in the hall still wanted to curry favor with Xiao Chuan, but at Xiao Zhan's command, everyone else left.

Very soon, only two people remained in the hall.

"Chuan'er, have you really reached the Dou Wang realm?" Xiao Zhan still found it somewhat unbelievable.

Xiao Chuan smiled and nodded. "I only decided to return to the Xiao Clan after breaking through to Dou Wang."

"Good, good, good!!"

Xiao Zhan had never been so happy. Their Xiao Clan had produced an extraordinary genius.

"Your father is only a Da Dou Shi and can no longer help you. The road ahead can only be walked by yourself."

Xiao Chuan gave a soft acknowledgment as he listened to Xiao Zhan talk about everyday matters and some past events from his childhood.

After quite a while.

Xiao Chuan finally left the hall, but after taking only two steps, he saw a slender young girl standing opposite him.

"Xun Er."

Before leaving the Xiao Clan, Xiao Chuan had already won over Xiao Xun'er before Xiao Yan could.

"Third Brother, you've finally returned."

Xiao Xun'er had come to the Xiao Clan when she was four years old. Back then, Xiao Chuan had been the one to help her become familiar with the Xiao Clan.

But Xiao Chuan had eventually left the Xiao Clan, and from then on, they had lost contact.

Now that Xiao Xun'er saw Xiao Chuan again, they had both grown considerably, yet their feelings for one another remained hidden in their hearts.

Since Xiao Chuan had transmigrated here, he certainly would not let Xiao Yan have his way, so he had taken Xiao Xun'er first.

Xiao Yan had lost his chance, and Xiao Chuan was also his third brother, so naturally he would not compete with Xiao Chuan.

Thus, Xiao Chuan and Xiao Xun'er's relationship could be called that of childhood sweethearts. At the very least, they had grown up together.

If he had not known that a Dou Emperor Expert followed Xiao Xun'er, he would have long since trained her properly.

"It's been a long time, Xun Er." Smiling, Xiao Chuan walked over and pulled Xiao Xun'er into his arms.

Xiao Xun'er did not struggle. Instead, she rested her head against Xiao Chuan's shoulder, feeling especially at ease.

"It's been so long. Did you miss me?"

Hearing that, Xiao Xun'er's face reddened with embarrassment, but she still nodded. "I did..."

"Xun Er has grown up."

Xiao Chuan could clearly sense that Xiao Xun'er had truly grown up, and her figure had already developed considerably.

Xiao Xun'er did not understand the implication behind Xiao Chuan's words and thought he meant she had grown taller.

"Third Brother, how did you reach Dou Wang in only a few short years?" Xiao Xun'er had also been startled by Xiao Chuan's talent.

Although she had seen many geniuses, she had watched Xiao Chuan closely since childhood. He had risen to Dou Wang in an extremely short time.

Unless he had encountered an enormous opportunity, it would have been impossible for Xiao Chuan to advance so quickly based on talent alone.

"It's inconvenient to say, but don't worry, Xun Er. Your third brother's strength is genuine." Xiao Chuan answered.

Xiao Xun'er understood that everyone had their own secrets, so she did not press him further. As long as Xiao Chuan had returned safely, that was enough for her.

"Third Brother, can you accompany Xun Er shopping tomorrow? You haven't gone shopping with me in a long time." Xiao Xun'er asked shyly, her hands behind her back.

Xiao Chuan nodded and skillfully rubbed Xiao Xun'er's little head. The soft, silky feel was excellent.

"If you want to go, I'll go with you."

Xiao Chuan also wanted to take a look around, since he had not returned in a long time.

Meanwhile, Xiao Yan met Yao Chen within the ring, and the two began their fateful entanglement.

Yao Chen said, "I can help you raise your cultivation, and I can also make you an alchemist."

Alchemists were revered by everyone on the Dou Qi Continent, and not just anyone could become one.

Cultivation methods and talent—neither could be lacking.

Xiao Chuan also knew that Xiao Yan was about to take his first step toward becoming an alchemist. As long as Xiao Yan became a Tier 1 Alchemist, he could become a Tier 6 Alchemist!

Early the next morning, the sun shone brightly.

News of Xiao Yan's broken engagement and Xiao Chuan being a Dou Wang had already spread throughout Wutan City.

What everyone cared about most, however, was that Xiao Chuan was a Dou Wang. That was enough to change the entire balance of Wutan City.

Especially the other forces in Wutan City.

After learning that Xiao Chuan was a Dou Wang, many people became eager to make a move and wanted to come befriend the Xiao Clan.

But Xiao Chuan had told Xiao Zhan that no matter who came, they were not to be received. He wanted to accompany Xiao Xun'er shopping.

Just as they were about to leave, Xiao Yan came to find them.

"Younger Brother, what is it?"

Xiao Yan scratched the back of his head. "Third Brother, can I borrow some money from you?"

To become an alchemist, he needed to constantly practice refining pills, so he needed money to buy medicinal ingredients.

"I have one thousand gold coins here. Is that enough?"

Xiao Chuan had once been a Dou Master, and after spending so many years outside, he still had this much savings.

He knew Xiao Yan definitely wanted to become an alchemist, and that would also benefit him.

What did it matter if he spent all his savings!?

"Thank you, Third Brother!!" Xiao Yan clutched the one thousand gold coins in his hand. "Third Brother, I definitely won't disappoint you!"

With that, he left the Xiao Clan.

As Xiao Yan walked down the street, Yao Chen's voice sounded beside his ear. "Your brother's talent is too defiant."

Yao Chen knew that Xiao Yan and Xiao Chuan had both been geniuses since childhood, but Xiao Chuan's rise to Dou Wang in such a short time was something he had never expected.

"Xiao Yan, cling to your third brother's thigh if you can. I think your brother's future achievements will be no less than those of a Dou Sheng!" Yao Chen held Xiao Chuan in extremely high regard.
